HARRISONBURG, Va. - Shenandoah University and Eastern Mennonite battled for 110 minutes Tuesday afternoon without a resolution; the non-conference men's soccer game ended in a 0-0 tie after 90 minutes of regulation and 20 minutes of overtime failed to produce a winner.

Shenandoah (3-3-1) had a chance with seven minutes remaining in the second overtime, but freshman Mohamed Toure (Lorton, Va./Robert E. Lee) hit his breakaway shot high over EMU (3-3-2) keeper Tim Koehn.

The Royals had their own excellent chance four minutes later, but their shot went off the post and the game ended in the scoreless tie.

Kyle Hodges (Virginia Beach, Va./Kempsville) had four saves for SU while Koehn stopped three for the hosts.
