Box Score San Antonio, Texas - Hendrix's men's soccer program opened the 2024 regular season with a draw versus Trinity on Friday night at McGinlay Field.
It was the first-ever result that the Warriors had gotten against their former Southern Collegiate Athletic Association (SCAC) rivals. Hendrix entered Friday night's match 0-3 all-time versus the Tigers. Trinity entered the 2024 season receiving the second-highest number of votes of un-ranked teams in the United Soccer Coaches preseason poll.
Hendrix was well on its way to earning the win after
Jensen Pechar tapped in off a headed assist from
Josh Montgomery, but the hosts would equalize 15 minutes from time to share the spoils.
The Warriors' back line was up to the challenge against a talented Trinity side who has qualified for two of the last three NCAA playoffs and reached the second round of the playoffs in 2023. The Tigers managed 7 shots on goal, with 2023 Southern Athletic Association (SAA) First Team selection
James Leone being called into action 6 times. Offensively, Hendrix managed 3 shots on goal.
Hendrix now heads to Georgetown, Texas to face another former SCAC foe in the Southwestern Pirates. Kick-off is scheduled for 7:00 PM on Sunday evening at Varsity Field.
