PENSACOLA, Fla. — When it comes to scoring, the Bellarmine University and West Florida women's soccer teams seem to be each other's Kryptonite.
On Wednesday afternoon at the UWF Soccer Complex, the Knights and Argos played to their second scoreless draw in only a week's time in Atlantic Sun Coast Conference action.
Bellarmine (6-6-4, 4-2-3 ASUN) and West Florida (7-3-4, 3-3-3) previously picked up mutual shutouts at Owsley B. Frazier Stadium. Hitting its stride down the stretch, the Knights' defense earned its third straight clean sheet and fourth in the last five games.
Bellarmine and West Florida have already clinched berths in the ASUN Tournament.
Sophomore goalkeeper
Anna Jenkins was credited with seven saves, tying her second-highest mark of the season. In the first half, she batted away a shot heading toward the inside of the back post.
In the second half, junior forward/defender
Sydney Elbert had a one-touch off a cross from junior midfielder
Campbell Tippey that forced West Florida's Karla Guzman-Ortiz into a spectacular save that ultimately may have rescued the Argos from defeat.
West Florida had a 14-4 advantage in shots. It was 6-4 in the second half.
Bellarmine will conclude the regular season by hosting Lipscomb at 4 p.m. (ET) Saturday. The Knights are in third place in the ASUN with 15 points.
