Statesmen Held Scoreless in Road Draw Against Mount Mercy

Oskaloosa--The No. 8 William Penn men's soccer team dominated possession and chances but came away empty-handed in a 0-0 draw against Mount Mercy in Heart of America Athletic Conference action Wednesday.

The Statesmen (7-2-4, 5-1-3 Heart) controlled the tempo throughout, outshooting the Mustangs (7-5-3, 4-4-2 Heart) 11-4 and holding a 6-0 edge in shots on target.

William Penn dictated the pace early with a 5-1 shot margin in the opening half before maintaining pressure after the break, adding another 6-3 advantage in the second frame.

John-Joe Mullane (Sr., Kent, England, Sports Management) led the offensive effort with four attempts, while Albert Feixas (So., Santa Coloma de Farners, Spain, Exercise Science) followed with two.

"Another frustrating result on the road where we've outperformed a team again," Head Coach Joe Minton said. "The result didn't go our way, and we have no choice but to win our remaining games if we want to achieve our goals for the year."
