Mediapolis — Francisco Javier Saldana scored in the 17th minute of the first half, but Wesleyan’s attack was silenced after that, as the Tigers and Westminster played to a 1-1 draw last night at Mediapolis High School.

Saldana had a chance to win the game in the late stages on a penalty kick, but the junior missed and the game subsequently went to overtime where neither team could find their offensive footing.

The Blue Jays outshot Wesleyan 14-9.

Vicent Sanchis recorded eight saves in net for the Tigers, also saving a penalty kick shot attempt.

Now 2-0-1 ,the Tigers will be off until next Tuesday when they welcome in Webster for a matinee affair set for 1:00 p.m.
