Bridgeport led 1-0 on a goal in the 37th minute of the first half, but Veloz took an assist from Aaron Burrows and scored the equalizer two minutes after intermission.
A controversial penalty set up a PK and goal for Bridgeport to take a 2-1 advantage, but the Jackets answered by with a penalty kick of their own from Veloz to cause the draw.
Stephenville is 8-0-2 in open play, also drawing in regulation with 5A power Waco University. In that tie, penalty kicks were used to determine a winner because it was the championship match of the Knights of Columbus Challenge of Champions in Stephenville. The Jackets won the shootout, 4-2.
