Men's Soccer Falls to Oglethorpe, Sewanee on Road

Official Statistics
vs. Oglethorpe / vs. Sewanee

SEWANEE, Tenn.
- The Millsaps College men's soccer team dropped a pair of conference road games this past weekend, surrendering eight total goals in losses at Oglethorpe on Friday and Sewanee on Sunday that snapped a four-match road win streak.

In Friday afternoon's, 5-1 loss to the Stormy Petrels, Millsaps was limited to just eight total shots as five different OU players netted goals.

Ben Robertson's unassisted goal 2:53 in set the tone for the home team, taking a 2-0 lead into the half with the second goal at the 45-minute mark.

Millsaps would respond two minutes into the second half with a goal from freshman \#Hayden Baker\# to cut it to 2-1, using fellow freshman \#Daniel Moise\#'s team-leading fifth assist. However, 14 seconds after cutting the lead in half, OU took the ensuing kickoff down the field for a score to cap off one of three unanswered goals for a 5-1 win.

In a physical, weekend finale at Sewanee, the Majors played a man down the final 50 minutes of regulation and two men down the final 14 minutes as they fell 3-2 behind two late Tiger goals. The teams were whistled for 17 fouls apiece, and Millsaps was hit with four yellow cards and three red cards, as Sewanee stayed unbeaten in SCAC play.

Back-to-back goals from Moise and \#Andres Colocho\# in the 57th and 60th minutes gave Millsaps a 2-1 advantage before Stuart Maxey's penalty kick on \#Brandon Guichard\#'s red card tied it at 2-2 in the 76th minute.

Sewanee (7-3, 3-0 SCAC) would find the game-winner off the foot of freshman Brennon Picarella with 3:04 left in the game, ending an odd game in which Millsaps was tagged with seven cards to the Tigers' one.

Millsaps (6-5, 1-3 SCAC) will return to Harper Davis Field this weekend, opening a four-match homestand with Southwestern University (4-4, 1-1) on Friday at 8 p.m.
