PLATTSBURGH, N.Y. – For the second game in a row the No. 23 ranked Plattsburgh State men's soccer team (8-1-2, 0-0-2 SUNYAC) endured a double overtime contest. This time finishing in a 0-0 tie with the Cortland Red Dragons (5-3-2, 0-2-1 SUNYAC) on Friday.

Although lacking in scoring, the matchup between these two SUNYAC foes brought a lot of physical and exciting play. Through halftime the Cardinals led in shots 7-5.

Plattsburgh State forward Chris Bowden perhaps had the play of the match when he ripped a shot with less than a second on the clock before halftime. Bowden's shot deflected off of a Cortland defender and over keeper Joe Brandofino. After an official discussion the goal was waived off due to the expiration of time.

Red Dragon forward Nick Tata had a great scoring chance in the second half of play. After a Red Dragon corner, the ball popped out to Tata who volleyed a hard shot right into the arms of Cardinal goalie Mitchell Jordon.

The Cardinals dominated both overtime periods, totaling seven shots compared to the Red Dragons who didn't register a shot in bonus time.
