Rowdies secure spot in NASL semifinals with a 1-1 Draw against Carolina

The Rowdies entered their game against Carolina on Wednesday night knowing they would need just a tie to secure a first-round bye and an appearance in the NASL Semifinals. Of course, they knew it would be nice to get a win in front of the home crowd at Al Lang Stadium, but they also understood a loss would put heavy pressure on them in their regular season finale on Saturday at Carolina.
