Senior goalkeeper Chloé Dion earned her sixth shutout of the season as Austin Peay State University women's soccer played to a scoreless ASUN Conference draw against Florida Gulf Coast, Sunday, at Pickering Field.
Dion matched her season-high with six saves, while she and the Austin Peay (3-8-6, 1-5-3 ASUN) defense fended off 25 shots and seven shots on net by Florida Gulf Coast (8-5-1, 6-1-1 ASUN) in the draw.
Sophomore Alec Baumgardt tallied the Govs' first of 10 shots off set piece in the first minute. The Federal Way, Washington native then found freshman Ellie Dreas in the 12th minute who fired the Govs' first shot on net.
Senior Anna McPhie and junior Annabel Anderson added back-to-back attempts in the 23rd and 24th minute, respectively, but both were corralled by FGCU's goalkeeper.
The Govs came out of the second half with shots in the 47th and 50th minutes but were unable to best the Eagles' defense.
The Govs kept the Eagles off the scoreboard in the second half, despite 14 second-half attempts by FGCU.
