TAMPA, Fla. – At the conclusion of 110 minutes, the No. 11 Saint Leo University men's soccer team completed its contest against Clayton State University with a 0-0 draw.  The Lions end the game 1-0-1 on the season while the Lakers sit 2-1-1 after the tie at Pepin Stadium on the campus of the University of Tampa.

The Lions led the offense in the first half, out-shooting the Lakers 10 to six.  Midfielder Bafou Sanogo was unable to score, despite three shots on goal.  Senior Alexander Racca ended the first half with two shots on goal, but Lakers goalkeeper Nick Punter stifled the attacks.
