EASTON, Pa.- The Lafayette men's soccer team earned a point in its scoreless draw with Bucknell at Gummeson Grounds: Home of Mike Bourger '44 Field at Oaks Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

Neither team had any more clear-cut opportunities in the first half, so the score remained 0-0.

As the second half wore on, Bucknell began to gain more and more possession. Both teams were very solid at the back, which limited one another's chances on goal. Both teams began to serve crosses into the box, but neither team could capitalize.

When the final whistle blew, the match finished in a 0-0 draw.
