SPARTANBURG, S.C. — Wofford kept its unbeaten Southern Conference record intact Saturday night, but the Terriers could not hold a second-half lead and finished 1-1 with UNC Greensboro at Snyder Field in Spartanburg, S.C.
After a scoreless first half in which the visitors put more pressure on goal, Wofford went ahead in the 58th minute. Fabian Menendez scored from the penalty spot for his fourth goal of the year. Goalkeeper Evan Morris had kept the game level before the break with a stop in the 37th minute and finished with two saves.
Greensboro pulled even in the 70th minute when Trym Linberg finished a cross from Lasse Dahl with one touch, his first goal of the season. Neither side found a winner after that. The Spartans ended with an 8-7 edge in shots and took all seven corner kicks in the match.
Wofford came in leading the league and on a run of three straight conference wins by a combined 7-0, and it now stands 8-3-4 overall and 3-0-2 in SoCon play. The Terriers entered the weekend at the start of a busy closing stretch, with Furman and East Tennessee State still ahead on the schedule within a week.
