Gyurkovits Scores Late to Seal Draw at Holy Cross

NOTRE DAME, Ind. – The Viterbo University Men's Soccer team recorded a draw on the road at Holy Cross College (Ind.) on Saturday afternoon in a Chicagoland Collegiate Athletic Conference (CCAC) matchup. The V-Hawks now sit at  4-1-5 (1-0-2 CCAC), while the Saints improve to 4-6-2 (2-2-1 CCAC).

The V-Hawks took the lead early, as Nicolas Lopez scored an unassisted goal in the seventh minute. Ernesto Ascenzo then recorded two saves before Holy Cross evened the score at 22:23. Neither team would record a goal for the remainder of the half, though Louison Poilpot did hit the crossbar on a shot.

In the second half, Holy Cross took the lead with a goal just :54 seconds in. Poilpot had another shot be saved in the 53rd minute, and Ascenzo saved an attempt right back. Alfie Gyurkovits evened the score in the 84th minute, assisted by Johan Hamnstrom. Hamnstrom took a final shot with 10 seconds left, but it would go wide.

The V-Hawks return to action on Wednesday, October 4 as they host Calumet St. Joseph (Ind.).
