INDIANAPOLIS - The Butler men's soccer team picked up its second BIG EAST point in as many matches with a 0-0 draw versus Seton Hall. The Bulldogs had a slight 2-1 edge on shots at halftime, but the Pirates stepped it up and outshot Butler 9-2 after the break. The Bulldogs (0-6-3, 0-0-2 BIG EAST) finished the night with three shots on frame, while Seton Hall (3-2-4, 1-0-1 BIG EAST) managed only one.
On the Record with Assistant Coach Perry Kitchen
"Overall a positive performance from us. A really good fight – and really good team spirit – against a tough opponent. So, it's back-to-back shutouts for us, which we take. I still think, and the staff as well, overall, we can be cleaner in front of goal. We created enough chances, I think, to take that game, but we build, and we move on again. We get another full training week, and we have another tough opponent in the BIG EAST in Marquette. We build off this and move forward."
