Wabash Plays To 1-1 Draw Against Illinois Wesleyan

CRAWFORDSVILLE, IN – Wabash College sophomore midfielder Alfredo Campos scored his team-leading sixth goal of the season to put Wabash in front early in Saturday's home match against Illinois Wesleyan University. The visiting Titans answered with a goal in the 77th minute, with the non-conference match ending in a 1-1 draw.

Wabash moved to 7-2-1 overall after the tie. Illinois Wesleyan is 6-0-2.

How it Happened
Wabash broke the scoreless tie when Campos fired a shot into the back of the net in the 13th minute to put the Little Giants in front 1-0. The goal came off a tremendous setup along the right side of the offensive set with assists from Bruno Zamora and Jesse Martinez.
 
Wabash put up four more shots on goal in the second half, with a fifth attempt clanging off the left post to deny the Little Giants a two-goal advantage. The Titans tied the match on a goal from Elsworth Mcintosh in the 76th minute, assisted by Justin Bruso, after Bruso's initial pass could not be cleared on a header by the Wabash defense. Neither team could break the tie over the final 13 minutes, with the game ending in a 1-1 final to match the score from last year's meeting at Wabash and the 2022 result in Bloomington, Illinois.
 
Wabash finished with 13 total shots and six shots on goal. IWU recorded six total shot attempts and three shots on goal. Little Giants goalkeeper Fernando Ramos made two saves in the contest.
 
Wabash is off until October 9, when the Little Giants travel to Greencastle, Indiana, to face arch-rival DePauw University to start the North Coast Athletic Conference portion of the Little Giants' 2024 schedule.
