HARRISBURG -- The Harrisburg City Islanders and Pittsburgh Riverhounds, Pennsylvania's two USL PRO teams, fought to a 0-0 draw on Wednesday night at Skyline Sports Complex.

Harrisburg couldn’t solve Pittsburgh keeper Hunter Gilstrap, who made eight saves in the game.

City Islanders goalie Nick Noble made three saves, including a finger-bruising shot by the Riverhounds’ Darren Amoo in the 54th minute. Amoo broke free through the Islanders' defense and booted a shot from the penalty area; waiting for him was Noble, who winced after taking the striker’s rocket from point-blank range.

With the tie, Pittsburgh is now 2-5-1 this season, while Harrisburg is 1-1-3. The City Islanders, in the middle of a six-game homestand, will next face the Dayton Dutch Lions FC on Saturday, May 19 at Skyline Sports Complex.

Gun control has become an overwhelming focus of many in the U.S.  Pro-gun supporters say guns aren't the problem, people are; while anti-gun proponents say eliminating guns will eliminate most crime and violence.
