(ASHLAND, Va.) – Great defense was on display as Randolph-Macon and Bridgewater battled for 110 minutes to a scoreless draw. For the Yellow Jackets it was their fourth shutout in the past five games as their unbeaten streak reaches six games.

The Basics

Score: Randolph-Macon 0, Bridgewater 0 (2OT)

Venue: Nunnally Field

Records: Randolph-Macon 7-2-2, 2-0-2 ODAC; Bridgewater 5-5-1, 1-2-1 ODAC

How It Happened

• Both teams had opportunities throughout the game with Randolph-Macon holding a slight edge offensively. Midfielders Alec Mowry (Jr., Salem, Va. / Salem) and Bogue Cummings (Jr., Midlothian, Va. / Midlothian) did well to halt the Eagles' advances while also transitioning the possession to the front line. As a result, the Yellow Jackets were able to outshoot the Eagles 22-14 in the game.
• The back line of Ryan Staton (Jr., Mechanicsburg, Pa. / Cumberland Valley), Elijah Lloyd (Roanoke, Va. / North Cross), Kodi Tannor (So., Midlothian, Va. / Midlothian), Jake Miklovic (Sr., Alexandria, Va. / Bishop Ireton), and Harrison Adams (Fr., Mechanicsville, Va. / Hanover) were nearly impenetrable and limited BC's offensive opportunities. Of the visitors' 14 shots, only three were on goal.
• Adam Braithwaite (Fr., Chesterfield, Va. / Matoaca) made the three saves to record his sixth shutout of his rookie campaign. The Yellow Jackets now have seven clean sheets on the season.
• The offense created a lot of great scoring chances, but it just wasn't the Yellow Jackets' day in front of the net as crosses and corners seemed to trickle just out of reach for a connecting shot.

Inside The Numbers

• Most of the offensive chances for the Yellow Jackets took place in the second half. They were able to fire off 10 shots and generated six corner kicks.
• Corner kicks overall heavily favored RMC by a 10-2 margin.
• Yoni Ramirez (Fr., Richmond, Va. / Hermitage) led the team with five shots. Mowry added four.

For The Record

• This is the first six game unbeaten streak for the Lemon and Black since the 2017 season when they went 6-0 from September 30 through October 17.

Up Next

The Jackets head on the road for their next two contests. The first of those will come Wednesday when they head to Randolph to take on the WildCats. Kickoff is set for 6 p.m.
