SMU 1, UCF 1 FInal.

Nice display from SMU tonight. It sure would have been great to beat Central Florida, but a point on the road in conference is never a bad thing. We sure had our chances for the winner though.

SMU is back home Wednesday night hosting Memphis.

SMU release on the UCF game:

“It was a tough night in a conference match on the road and we had just played Wednesday. We gave up an early goal, but the guys showed an incredible amount of resolve to come back and tie,” Head Coach Tim McClements said. “They did a great job and battled and didn’t give up, but unfortunately we couldn’t get a goal in the overtime period. Overall, though, I am really proud.”

Wow on Mauro Cichero's stats. 8 shots, 3 on goal. He hit a post too.

Seven yellows tonight too. 5 to UCF and 2 to SMU.
