GREENVILLE, N.C. – Isabella Gutiérrez and Caitlen-Star Dolan Boodram both scored a goal as East Carolina rallied from an early 2-0 deficit to force a 2-2 draw on Thursday evening at Bill Clark Homes Field at Johnson Stadium.
East Carolina moves to 3-4-9 overall and 2-2-4 in American Conference play while North Texas goes to 4-6-5 overall and 0-3-4 in league action. The tie also marks the sixth game that has ended at 2-2 for ECU this season.
North Texas raced out to a 2-0 lead in the game's first 12 minutes on back-to-back goals from Claire Niedermeier but a Mean Green handball in the box awarded the Pirates a penalty kick and a chance to cut into the deficit.
Gutiérrez calmly converted the PK to make it 2-1 at the 14-minute mark and the Pirates went into the locker room with some momentum.
That momentum increased to start the second half after North Texas was given a red card and the Pirates took advantage as Dolan Boodram scored on a beautiful shot to equalize the game.
Both teams had opportunities to score the go-ahead goal down the stretch including back-to-back shots from the Pirates in the final minute but both attempts were unable to find the back of the net.
Olivia Dietrich made six saves at goalie for ECU.
Up Next
East Carolina has a bye before traveling to Memphis next Friday, Oct. 30 for an 8 p.m. ET kickoff.
