IMMACULATA, Pa. (Sept. 13, 2016) – Sophomore Kevin McKenna (North Wales, Pa.) found the back of the net with just 16 seconds remaining in regulation to help the Widener University men's soccer team salvage a 1-1 tie against Immaculata on Wednesday afternoon at Draper Walsh Stadium.
 
The Pride outshot Immaculata (2-2-1) over the first 45 minutes by a 5-2 account, which included putting four on target, but unfortunately could not push the ball past opposing goalkeeper Joe Lubonski. The teams went into the recess deadlocked at 0-0.
 
In the second half, Widener (1-3-1) continued to apply pressure and nearly scored on a header shot from senior captain Tommy O'Keefe (Lutherville, Md.). However, Lubonski made another save and the Mighty Macs were able to find the back of the net just 1:25 later. Alex Noel finished a pass from Matt Dunn by firing into the upper right corner of the net to put the hosts ahead in the 58th minute.
 
The hosts appeared to be in a position to come away with the win heading into the end of regulation, but the Pride kept fighting and were able to net the equalizer in the waning seconds when McKenna unleashed a shot from the top of the box. Pride goalkeeper Jordan Katz (North Wales, Pa.) then made a diving save off a shot from Alex D'Angelo in overtime on the only real opportunity for either side in the extra sessions, and the match would eventually end in a draw.
 
Immaculata's Lubonski made seven stops between the pipes to pick up the shutout victory. Katz, who was making his first career start as a collegian, turned away five shots for Widener.
 
The Pride return to action when they visit Gwynedd Mercy on Saturday, Sept. 17 at noon.
