PITTSBURGH – Junior goalkeeper Anna MacLean (Thunder Bay, Ontario) made a season-high 11 saves and freshman Atley Fortney (Charles Town, W.Va.) scored her first collegiate goal on Sunday, as the Seton Hall women's soccer team played to a 1-1 draw at Duquesne.

Fortney got the Pirates (0-4-2) on the board in the 40th minute, and the Dukes (3-2-1) netted the equalizer in the 58th minute.

Turning Point

Seton Hall came out of halftime with great energy, took two shots and earned two corner kicks within the first 11 minutes of the final frame. However, Duquesne took advantage with a counter-attack and an excellent through ball from the Dukes put Lauren Duq Bell in a position to score what proved to be the game-tying goal.
