NORMAN – The Texas A&M soccer team battled the Oklahoma Sooners to a 0-0 tie Sunday afternoon at John Crain Field.
The Aggies had maximum effort breaking the stalemate in the second half to no prevail. They outshot the Sooners 8-5 in the second stanza. In the 68th minute Leah Diaz ripped a shot which got blocked and went to Trinity Buchanan who sent in a shot which hit the left post. Savannah Hutchins and Bella James added shots in the 75th and 81st minute which required saves by Oklahoma keeper Caroline Duffy.
Maysen Veronda made four saves in goal for the Maroon & White to record her second consecutive shutout and the third of her career.
The Aggie back-seven was again menacing. Oklahoma (9-3-2, 2-3-1 SEC) entered the match averaging 2.29 goals and seven shots-on-goal per match. Kat Campbell, Riley Crooks, Emma Hoang, Bella James, Hattie Patterson, Mia Scranton and Bella Yakel held the Sooners to four shots-on-goal for the match and limited OU's leading scorer Naomi Clark without an SOG.
For the match, Oklahoma held margins in shots (13-10), shots-on-goal (4-3) and corner kicks (9-6).
The Aggies moved to 4-5-4 on the season, including 1-4-1 in league action.

TEXAS A&M QUOTES
Head Coach G Guerrieri
On the hard-fought match…
"Going on the road and getting a point, even in a game that is kind of ugly is still kind of pretty. If you can come away with points in this league on the road, you'll take it. I'm really proud of the way our team came through having to play against a team so stylistically different than us. It's always a challenge. But I'm really happy with the week getting four points."
On Maysen Veronda and the backline...
"We've been able to keep people in check because of the quality of individuals we have. They way we have worked together with Hattie (Patterson), Bella (James) and Riley (Crooks). They have been awesome and the way Maysen has clicked with them the last few matches has been great.
On getting back on the road Friday at LSU...
"We have a couple days to recover from this really physical weekend to get ready and have another physical game in Baton Rouge against a really well-coached team that is playing well right now."
