OSHAWA, ON – The Durham Lords men's soccer team finished off their home schedule for the 2022 OCAA season with a 1-1 draw against the St. Lawrence Surge.

Durham took an early lead in the 15^th minute as Anthony Barrese (Oshawa, ON) set up Jeremie-Sorel Nguewo (London, ON) to score a beautiful goal, scoring his third career goal to tie Garvit Gautam (Oshawa, ON) as the team leader in goals.

St. Lawrence scored 20 minutes later to tie the game at one goal apiece, and that would be the last goal on the scoreboard as both teams played solid defence to take away a single point each on the night.

The Lords ultimately outshot St. Lawrence 7-6 in total shots taken, with five of seven landing on target and one in the back of the net.

Garrett Werner (Ajax, ON) turned away four of five shots against on his graduating senior night, helping keep the Lords level for the draw. Isaiah Wisdom (Whitby, ON) led the team in shots with two, both on target.

Durham is back in action on Saturday, October 8 in Sudbury as the Lords travel to face the Cambrian Golden Shield at 2:00 PM.
