Bermudian midfielder Khari Sharrieff was named in the starting line-up for Howard University as the Bison were held to a 1-1 draw by Mercyhurst at Greene Stadium in Washington, D.C.
Sharrieff logged 69 minutes in the Northeast Conference fixture before being substituted. The result was a notable one in the history of the two programmes, representing the first time the sides have finished level in their all-time series. Howard struck first, finding the net in the 18th minute, but Mercyhurst responded to ensure the points were shared.
The draw continues Sharrieff's involvement with the Bison this season, with the Bermudian earning valuable minutes as Howard navigate their conference campaign. His continued presence in the starting eleven will be encouraging news for local football followers tracking the progress of Bermudian players in the American college system.
Howard will look to return to winning ways in their next conference outing as they push for a strong finish to the season.
