Schreiner, McMurry play to scoreless tie despite 14 Mountaineer shots

Schreiner outshot McMurry 14-9 for the match, including a 7-2 advantage in the first half.

ABILENE, Texas — Schreiner University’s men’s soccer team and McMurry battled to a 0-0 tie Saturday at Wilford Moore Stadium, with the Mountaineers unable to beat goalkeeper Enrique Cabello despite holding a wide edge in shots.

Schreiner outshot McMurry 14-9 for the match, including a 7-2 advantage in the first half, but could not get a puck — rather, a ball — past Cabello, who turned away all five shots on goal he faced to preserve the clean sheet. Schreiner’s Mason Miller matched him save for save at the other end, stopping all four shots on goal he saw. Gabe Zagastizabal led Schreiner’s attack with three shots, while Carlos Guerra paced McMurry with three of his own.

The match stayed goalless and largely clean for 79 minutes before the cards started coming out in bunches. Five yellow cards were shown in the final 11 minutes — Andrew Fernandez (McMurry) in the 79th, Cody Smith (Schreiner) in the 80th, Alexis Aguinaga (McMurry) in the 84th, and Jovani Burnett and Carlos Guerra, both McMurry, in the 88th — but no player was sent off and the scoreline held through the final whistle.

Schreiner won the corner-kick battle 2-1 and was whistled for 10 fouls to McMurry’s nine.
