JACKSON - In the conference opener for Millsaps on Friday night at Harper Davis Field, visiting Hendrix College used Ashley Gallegos' goal in the 36th to come away with a 1-0 victory and snap a three-game unbeaten streak at home for the Majors.

Millsaps (5-2-1, 0-1 Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference) had its best scoring chance in the 23rd minute, as senior \#Leslie Robichaux\# beat her defender off the dribble but fired a shot that sailed just wide of the left post.

Gallegos threatened for Hendrix 10 minutes later after dropping behind the Majors' defense, but a diving effort from goalkeeper \#Sarah Nelin\# kept the Warriors off the board momentarily. The frosh would score her fifth goal of the year and the only one of the match less than a minute later, slipping behind the Millsaps defense again and lofting a shot over the head of Nelin for the 1-0 lead.

In a very physical second half that saw the Warriors whistled for 10 fouls and a yellow card against none for the hosts, the Majors' best chance came with 18 minutes remaining again from Robichaux. The senior fought off a Hendrix defender and then sailed a shot just wide left.

The Warriors clung to their 1-0 lead and would go on to win it by the same score.

Hendrix moved to 6-1 overall and 2-0 in league play, rallying behind Gallegos' goal and four saves between the posts for sophomore GK Allison Mosley.

Millsaps will close out a two-game homestand on Sunday, welcoming Rhodes College (3-3-1) to town for a 2 p.m. kickoff. Both teams will be seeking its first SCAC win.
