WINCHESTER, Va. - Shenandoah and Bridgewater battled for 120 minutes Monday afternoon, but for the second straight season no victor was decided as the two teams battled to a 1-1 tie. SU and BC opened the 1999 season with a 2-2 contest on September 1 in Bridgewater, Va.

Bridgewater (4-8-1) scored the first goal of the game in the 39^th minute when Justin Gilliam took a cross from Brad Hawkins and slipped his shot by SU keeper Tom Malinosky (Clearwater, Fla./Clearwater Catholic) from 15 yards out. Just when it looked like this goal would be the only one of the contest, freshman George Shirley (Gatlinburg, Tenn./Pittmann) tied it for the hosts. Shirley took a cross from classmate Jesse Fullerton (Catharpin, Va./Stonewall Jackson) and ripped a shot from 25 yards out into the right panel of the net with just five minutes to play in regulation.

The Hornets (2-8-2) apparently won the game on two different occasions in the 30 minute overtime, but had one goal called back for an offside and another for a foul.
