Majors Suffer Second-Straight Defeat in SCAC Play

JACKSON – Centre's Brittany Garr scored two goals in the opening eight minutes to give the visitors an early 2-0 lead and Allison Terry was credited with the game-winner in the 50th minute as the Colonels hit Millsaps with its second-straight loss in SCAC play, 4-2.

Millsaps (9-3, 1-2 SCAC) trailed 2-1 at the half after junior Meredith Harris' fifth goal of the year with 58 seconds left in the first. Harris delivered another long, free kick from 40-yards out that sailed over the head of Centre keeper Rosie McAuley.

Centre (6-3-1, 3-0 SCAC) would answer just four minutes into the second period to extend the lead to 3-1, using a Terry goal off a Casey Yeakel assist after Millsaps goalie Elizabeth Sooby bobbled the previous shot in front of the net.

Freshman Jessica Harris would add a goal for Millsaps in the 85th minute, her team-tying sixth of the year, but it was too late as Centre had already built an insurmountable cushion behind Erin Menard's goal in the 60th minute.

Millsaps will try and get back on the winning track next weekend, traveling to Birmingham-Southern for a single game against the Panthers. Kickoff is set for 6 p.m.
