HOW IT HAPPENED
  • Radford and 10th-ranked Coastal Carolina battled to a scoreless draw Saturday night in Big South men's soccer action at CCU Soccer Stadium in Conway, S.C.
  • Sivert Daehlie nearly netted his seventh game-winner of the season in the 26th minute when he jetted behind the Chanticleer backline, but Coastal's Fernando Pina came off his line to foil the 1v1 opportunity.
     
  • INSIDE THE BOX SCORE
  • With the tie, Radford clinches at least a share of its sixth Big South regular-season championship.
  • The Highlanders claimed at least a share of the conference regular-season title in back-to-back years for the second time in program history. Radford also won back-to-back league championships in 1987-88.
  • RU concludes Big South play with a 7-1-1 record, which currently leads the league.
  • Winthrop (6-1-1) and Coastal (6-1-1) are one game back entering the last week of the regular season.
  • Daehlie and Jakob Strandsäter combined for the Highlanders' two shots on goal.
  • Both teams fired eight shots, while the Chants gained a 7-4 edge in corners.
  • Aitor Pouseu Blanco recorded two saves in goal for the Highlanders, who notched their seventh shutout of the season.
 
QUOTABLE
  • "This was a great college game involving what I believe are two very good teams who were competing hard each and every play. Coastal is an exceptionally talented and well-coached team that is deserving of its high national ranking. I believe we were every bit as good today and through the season. This means we are guaranteed at least a share of the regular-season title for which I am very proud of this group. We will regroup and be ready for a great non-conference and final regular-season game against an excellent Elon team that is having a fantastic season." ~ Radford head coach, Marc Reeves
 
UP NEXT
  • Radford gears up for Wednesday's regular-season finale at nationally-ranked Elon.
  • The non-conference match gets underway at 7 p.m. from Rudd Field in Elon, N.C.
