COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – Chris Ellis picked up a pair of assists and scored one of five Colorado College goals on the afternoon as the host Tigers moved to 2-0 in league play with a 5-0 shutout win over a depleted Millsaps team.
After a long day of travel and a flight out west for the Majors, CC took advantage of two first half goals from Trevor Cobb and Travis Boccard for a 2-0 halftime lead. The Tigers fired 12 first half shots against just three for Millsaps and kept constant pressure on freshman GK Dylan Broussard who notched a career-high 10 saves on the afternoon.
Three more goals midway through the second period pushed a commanding lead out to 5-0 as Millsaps could not overcome a ferocious CC offense. The Tigers outshot Millsaps 31-5 for the match and earned 12 more corners to move to 7-1 overall on the year.
Brian Engle needed just two saves for CC to earn the win, while Broussard dropped to 2-2. Domenick DiPaolo played the final 13:11 and earned two saves. For Millsaps offensively, Conley Pomerenke and Anthony Amaya earned the lone two shots on net.
Millsaps (5-6, 1-1) will return home for its next competition, hosting DePauw and Centre as part of "Family Weekend" on the Millsaps campus. Game times are set for 8 p.m. and 2 p.m. on Friday and Sunday and can both be seen on www.atwsportscast.com.
