MEMPHIS, Tenn. – Junior Brandon Mong's goal in the 55th minute sparked a span of four unanswered goals for Millsaps in 15:07 as the Majors rallied to knock off Fontbonne University (Mo.) on Saturday afternoon in the Rhodes College Classic in Memphis 4-1.

The win for Millsaps (1-0) was its first season-opening win since 2004 – also at the Rhodes Classic – with Mong, Drew Dews, Aaron Hyatt and Andres Colocho each finding the back of the net and senior goalkeeper Domenick DiPaolo earning his first win between the posts. Jess Jobe had three saves in a losing effort for FU.

DiPaolo, making his first start for Millsaps since 2006 after serving 10 months in Iraq, allowed just one goal in the opening 8:39 from Fontbonne's Kevin Vonarx before settling in and picking up a pair of saves.

Sixth-year head coach Lee Johnson made some solid second half adjustments for the Majors as they enjoyed a 10-2 shot advantage in the second period that proved to be the difference.

Millsaps will conclude the Rhodes Classic with a Sunday matinee, facing Augustana College out of Illinois at 2 p.m. The home-opener is slated for Friday, Sept. 5 at 5 p.m. against Louisiana College.
