DENTON, Texas — Needing points to move up in the American standings in the season's final weeks, the UNT soccer team earned one after playing to a 2-2 draw against rival Rice on Sunday at home. The Mean Green (5-9-3, 1-4-2) jumped out to a quick 2-0 lead when sophomore Claire Niedermeier netted her fifth goal of the season in the 20th minute, but the Owls quickly answered one minute later when Leah Chancey scored her ninth goal of the year to pull Rice within 2-1.
