UC IRVINE 0, #8 CREIGHTON 0
- Both sides had chances in the early going. The best chance of the first half in the 31st minute began with Christian Gomez getting stopped point blank from the right wing. Mario Anaya fed a cross back in perfectly hitting Jake Means who somehow was kept out by Creighton keeper Nathan Schnur sending the match into the half scoreless
- UCI had a brunt of the second half chances with more shots (11-8) and corner kicks (4-3) on the match
- Francesco Montanile streaked up the right wing in the 82nd minute putting a breakaway chance on goal that again was stopped
- Agaton Pourshahidi replicated Montanile's run, but again Schnur came up big forcing a corner kick in the waning seconds
- UCI played its 80th match against a ranked opponent putting up its ninth draw and ninth result against a top-8 program
- The draw is the first in the series after Creighton won two of three matches at their place in the past
- Luke Pruter finished with a pair of saves while Creighton's keeper stopped all six shots put on frame
- Five cautions were handed out all in the final 30 minutes of the match
