FOREST GROVE, Ore. – The Pacific men's soccer team was less than a minute away from securing its third win in Northwest Conference play. Instead, the Boxers had to settle for their sixth tie.
Visiting Lewis & Clark scored the equalizer with just 42 seconds remaining in Wednesday night's 1-1 draw.
Cole Affolter put Pacific on top in the 41st minute, scoring his third goal of the season on a header with an assist from Trenton Zimmermann.
The final 20 minutes of the match got chippy, with the two River Otters receiving two yellow cards. Lewis & Clark head coach Fraser Morrison was then issued a red card after the game.
The Boxers outshot Lewis & Clark 11-6, including a 7-4 advantage in shots on goal, and earned five corner kicks to two for the River Otters.
Affolter led Pacific with four shots, putting three on frame. Giovanny Adaya-Ortiz, Max Bowman, Carter Zeiset and Afsheen Alijani each recorded one shot on goal.
