Box Score LUBBOCK, TEXAS – A solid defensive effort in the first half for UT Tyler was negated by a second half goal from Lubbock Christian to draw the 1-0 final in Saturday afternoon in Lubbock, Texas.
 
UT Tyler didn't allow a single shot on goal attempt in the first 45 minutes of play before a goal in the 60^th minute by Lubbock Christian proved to be the difference maker in the defensive battle between the two sides.
