BALTIMORE, MD – The Johns Hopkins men's soccer team battled 22^nd-ranked Emory to a scoreless tie Sunday afternoon on a rain-soaked Homewood Field.
 
Junior Aidan Dunphy had the first good look of the game in the 17^th minute. He redirected an Ian Whamond free kick, but Peter Wagner was able to corral the ball to keep the teams even. Midway through the half, senior Aidan Whamond centered the ball to sophomore Jonathan Cui, but his shot just missed high. Axel Whamond nearly put the Blue Jays on top in the 45^th minute with a one-timer in the middle of the box, however it skipped just wide.
 
Emory's best look came early in the second on an Alejandro Gomez header, but graduate student Alex Morgret snagged the ball to keep the teams scoreless. Junior Francis Meyer fired a low hard shot from 20 yards out that just missed wide right in the 60^th minute. Graduate student Andres Chacon had a great header off an Ian Whamond corner in the 88^th minute, unfortunately Wagner just got his right hand on it to knock it away.
 
Hopkins outshot Emory, 10-4, and had an 8-3 advantage in corners. Morgret finished with just the one save to post his fourth clean sheet of the season. Wagner tallied four saves to finish with a shutout as well.
