Ben Feeney opened the scoring in the Midlands El Clasico.
Athlone Town landed their first point of the season on Saturday in their first midlands derby of the season.
Dario Castelo's side took the lead through Ben Feeney on the half hour mark, before Aaron Doran slotted home the equaliser from the spot just seven minutes later.
Both teams saw out a competitive encounter in the second half to settle for a share of the spoils.
Town are back in action on Friday with an away day against Wexford in Ferrycarrig Park.
