Oct 20, 2022 | Soccer
COLUMBIA, South Carolina – The Texas A&M Aggies and No. 21 South Carolina Gamecocks played to a 1-1 tie in Thursday night's SEC match at Stone Stadium.
The Aggies scored the icebreaker in the 21st minute on the secondary attack off a corner kick. Carolyn Calzada sent the initial carom back to Mia Pante. Pante sent a long diagonal service into the 6-yard box where Quinn Cornog outmuscled a Gamecocks' defender for the goal.
South Carolina knotted the match in the 59th minute and the Aggies fought off a late Gamecocks' push for a game winner.
Kenna Caldwell made a career-high nine saves in net for A&M to preserve the draw. South Carolina held advantages in shots (15-4), shots-on-goal (10-1) and corner kicks (5-3).
