EDINBURG – The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley (UTRGV) men's soccer team played Air Force, a team receiving votes in the latest polls, to a 1-1 double overtime tie in the home finale on Saturday at the UTRGV Soccer and Track & Field Complex.
 
UTRGV (5-8-3, 3-4-2 WAC) can clinch its first-ever berth in the Western Athletic Conference Tournament if San José State loses at UMKC Saturday night.
 
With UTRGV down 1-0 in the 61st minute, junior Frederik Frankman scored his third goal of the season on a bicycle kick off a corner kick by freshman Angel Lopez.
 
Air Force (11-6-1, 5-3-1 WAC) took a 1-0 lead in the 25th minute when Klint Parker scored off a feed by Jaric Marton.
 
That was it against freshman Esa Aalto (4-4-2), who made seven saves.
 
John Wendt (8-6-1) made one save for Air Force.
 
UTRGV closes out the regular season on Sat., Nov. 5 at 9 p.m. at San José State.
