Men's Soccer Falls to Colorado in Season Finale, 2-1

JACKSON - Playing a man down the final 52:24 due to a red card, Millsaps rallied from a 2-0 deficit with a goal in the 68th minute from freshman Daniel Moise off a penalty kick but couldn't get any closer in a 2-1 defeat in its regular season finale.

Millsaps closes its season at 7-10-1 overall and 2-8 in SCAC play, while visiting Colorado College ended its season at 10-9-1 and 6-4 in the SCAC.

In an intense match filled with a combined 27 fouls, three yellow cards and a red card, CC broke a scoreless tie just before the halftime whistle in the 41st minute. Trevor Cobb got a perfect lob from Jordan Reese into the box from 20-yards out, where the senior headed it in past a diving \#Stephen Andrieu\#.

The Tigers would increase their lead to 2-0 just two minutes into the second half when Reese fired a shot from just outside the box that found the back of the net.

After several missed opportunities for Millsaps in the period, the Majors finally found their first goal of the match in the 68th minute thanks to Moise's team-leading 9th goal of the season off a penalty kick. The goal snapped a streak of 10 consecutive halves without a goal for Millsaps, but more importantly cut the Tigers' lead to 2-1.

Two of Andrieu's career-high 13 saves came in the 77th and 80th minutes off shots from Cobb, keeping Millsaps in the match late. Senior \#Andres Colocho\#'s shot with just over 6 minutes to play, however, proved to be the Majors' last chance, as CC goalkeeper Andy McGhie preserved the win.

Millsaps was out-shot in the match 27-9 (15-7 on net) and CC earned five more corners.
