CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. – Senior goalkeeper Chloé Dion earned her fifth shutout of the season, as Austin Peay State University's soccer team played to a scoreless draw against Bellarmine, Thursday, at Morgan Bros. Soccer Field.

Austin Peay (3-5-4) picked up its fourth draw of the season against Bellarmine (0-3-8) who entered Thursday's contest leading Division I in draws this season.

Junior Annabel Anderson fired the Govs' first shot in the fifth minute, while freshman Kasidy Schenk's 11th-minute attempt was saved by Bellarmine's goalkeeper, Elyssa Francis. Senior Anna McPhie and junior Tori Case were unable to best the Knights' defense later in teh half with shots on goal in the 19th and 24th minutes, respectively.

Over 70 percent of the Govs' possession time in the first half was in the offensive zone and resulted in six shots with three on target. Comparatively, Bellarmine was held without a shot in the first half after nearly 65 percent of its possession time came in its defensive zone.

The Govs blocked Bellarmine's first shot in the 48th minute, while Alec Baumgardt's 60th-minute attempt sailed over the goal.

Sophomore Olivia Prock tallied her third shot on goal this season in the 66th minute, but she and graduate student Marli Niederhauser's 86th-minute attempts were corralled by Francis, resulting in the draw.
