West Chester let a late equalizer erase Peter Tichy’s second-half penalty and settled for a 1-1 draw with Lackawanna in its regular-season home finale. The Golden Rams controlled much of the match but couldn’t hold the lead through the final seconds.

By the Numbers
  • West Chester: 6-4-5; Lackawanna: 1-8-6.
  • Tichy scored his third goal of the season in the 63rd minute.
  • West Chester led 7-4 in shots on goal and 17-10 in corner kicks.
  • Goalkeeper Alexi Amanatidis made 3 saves; Lackawanna’s Rowin Thomas made 6.
Yes, But

West Chester had the advantage in key attacking statistics and appeared poised to win, but Lackawanna scored from a corner kick with fewer than five seconds left in regulation.

What's Next

West Chester visits the College of Staten Island on Saturday, then closes the regular season at Shepherd next Thursday. The Golden Rams have qualified for the PSAC Tournament, which begins Nov. 1; the game time and location are expected to be set after the regular season ends.

Bottom Line

West Chester’s tournament spot is secure, but the late concession shows the team will need to protect its leads as it heads into postseason play.
