The Austin boys soccer team had one of its best showing against Rochester Mayo in program history, but it wasn’t enough to get a win.

The Packers had to settle for a scoreless tie as both teams had close calls come up short in Rochester Thursday.

“I think this is the best result we’ve ever had against Mayo as a program,” Austin head coach Jens Levisen said. “It was a solid team effort and everybody did the things I wanted them to do.”
