Ten-man Huddersfield put in a spirited performance to claim a point at Yeovil after former Glovers defender Lee Peltier was sent off early on.
Peltier was given his marching orders when he was adjudged to have elbowed Dean Bowditch after 14 minutes.
Andrew Williams held off two defenders to fire the hosts into a deserved lead shortly before half time.
Antony Kay headed home an equaliser from Anthony Pilkington's corner but the Terriers could not find a winner.
Huddersfield Town manager Lee Clark told BBC Radio Leeds:
"I'm delighted with the second half. I said to the players at half-time that we looked sorry for ourselves after what happened to Lee Peltier.
"The goal was something that was waiting to happen. Although we lost a man you can still be positive and I thought we didn't take the game to Yeovil.
"On chances in the second half we maybe could have nicked it, and I'm delighted with the response of the players. Second half they showed huge heart and they've shown a lot of quality as well."
