Box Score ROCKLIN, Calif. --- Needing a win and some other teams to lose in order to improve its standing in the Golden State Athletic Conference, Biola simplifies things by playing to a 1-1 tie with William Jessup. This leaves Biola with the sixth, and final, seed headed into the first round of next week's GSAC Tournament.

The game offered plenty of chances for Biola to escape their final regular season match with a win, but the Eagles simply could not find the back of the net on any of their 19 shots. Instead, a scoreless tie brings an end to a regular season that saw Biola tie three other contests.

The tie is still better than a loss and improves the Eagles undefeated streak to five straight games.

The Eagles forced Jessup's keeper, Zach Kammerer, to make seven saves on the afternoon, including three that kept the Warriors alive in the two 10-minute sudden death overtime periods.
 
Biola's attackers turned it up a notch in the 20 minutes of overtime, firing seven shots in Kammerer's direction. The Eagles had a streak of four consecutive minutes with a shot attempt in the first overtime, forcing two saves and a team block from the Warriors. Jarrett Pugh, Joey O'Keefe and Stephen Tanquary, three of the Eagles' best shooters, each had a chance during that stretch as Biola laid it all out on the field.

The Eagles last chance in the game came in the final seconds as Sava Pantic dialed one up and forced Kammerer to come up with the last save of the game and just barely deny Biola a game-winner.

JT Addington and the Eagles' defense held a clean sheet throughout. He stopped all four shots on goal the Warriors had and the defensive line took care of everything else. Thanks to some pressure defense, Biola more than doubled the number of shots WJU was able to fire off.
 
Biola wanted to get a win because it had the potential to move them atop the bracket for the first round of conference tournament play at the third seed. Instead, the tie puts them at the bottom of the bracket in the sixth seed. They will face the number three seed, Vanguard, in Costa Mesa on Wednesday at 2 p.m.
 
The Lions and Eagles went head-to-head once during the regular season. Biola hosted Vanguard and the teams played to a 0-0 on Oct. 18. It was the second game in this streak of five games without a loss. Vanguard enters the match with a 10-6-1 overall record, while the Eagles come in 7-5-4 overall.
