Jones Nets First Career Hat-Trick in Shutout of Agnes Scott

JACKSON – For the first time in school history, Millsaps is off to a 3-0 start after its second shutout win in three games on Sunday afternoon against Agnes Scott.

Senior Bobbi Jones scored the first hat-trick of her career and the second known for Millsaps in its soccer history to pace the home team, while Megan Sullivan and Emily Townsend each netted a goal apiece in the 5-0 victory.

The Majors' offense held the Scotties without a shot the entire contest and exploded for a season-high 21 shots of their own (16 on goal), led by Jones with a game-high seven.

Senior keeper Elizabeth Sooby improved to 3-0 in net in 26 minutes of work, combining with Molly Beth Jourdan and Sarah Nelin for a second Millsaps shutout. For Agnes Scott, Jessica Jones picked up a game-high 10 saves in the loss.

Millsaps will continue a 4-game homestand next Saturday vs. Alcorn State at 2 p.m., seeking its first 4-0 start ever. The weekend concludes with a 2 p.m. game against Piedmont College on Sunday.
