Chattanooga FC came from two goals down to secure a well-earned point against Huntsville City FC at Wicks Family Field on Saturday evening.
Alex Krehl scored his third goal of the young season, while Tate Robertson added a second on the year to his account.
Huntsville City took an early lead through Shak Mohammed before Maximus Ekk headed in a second for the hosts.
However, Krehl headed in from a beautifully delivered cross by full-back Yves Tcheuyap at a crucial juncture right before half-time.
Chattanooga FC used the momentum from Krehl's goal to dominate proceedings in the second half.
Substitute Keegan Ancelin earned a penalty for the Boys in Blue late in the match and Robertson made no mistake, converting the resulting spot-kick to equalize and ultimately earn a hard-fought draw.
The hosts won the penalty shootout for the extra point 4-2.
Chattanooga FC returns home for its next match on Saturday, March 28 against Columbus Crew 2.
