Men’s Soccer Posts Shutout in 0-0 Draw with No. 2 Vermont

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – Harvard University men's soccer became the first team in 2025 to post a shutout against No. 2 University of Vermont as the Crimson and Catamounts played to a 0-0 draw on Tuesday night at Jordan Field.
 
Playing in the first game of a three-game homestand and in its non-league home finale, the Crimson (3-4-3) nearly broke the tie inside of the contest's final 10 minutes before the hosts and the Catamounts (8-0-4) – the defending national champions – saw out the clean sheet with Vermont remaining undefeated on the season.
 
Harvard recorded its fourth shutout as a team this season while senior goalkeeper Lucian Wood registered his second clean sheet on the year.

Harvard Highlights

  • Senior goalkeeper Lucian Wood made one save in his second shutout of the season and sixth career clean sheet.
  • The Crimson tallied its fourth shutout as a team on the year.
  • Among the Crimson's field players, sophomore center backs Alexander Castel and Tim Langenbahn as well as first-year defender Alejandro Palacio each played the full 90 minutes.
  • Junior Andreas Savva notched a game-high three shots.
  • For the match, each team registered nine shots and one shot on goal. 

How It Happened
