JACKSON, Miss. - The Millsaps women's soccer team fell to 24th nationally ranked Centre College 3-1 on Friday at Harper Davis Field.

The Majors scored first when Jessica Harris received the ball just past the halfway line. As she streaked past two Centre defenders she had a one-on-one breakaway with the keeper, sliding the ball into the back of the net. The score remained 1-0 going into the half because of the Major's strong defensive effort.

The Colonels responded at the opening of the second half showing why they are ranked 24th in the nation. They scored in the third minute, tying the game at 1-1. Minutes later the Colonels struck again. Despite the Major's tight defensive presence, the Colonels were able to sneak a brilliant shot into the right side netting of the goal.

Later in second half, the Colonels sealed the game when they scored their final goal off a corner bringing the final score to 3-1.

Centre took 20 shot, while the Majors had just 5, and Millsaps goalkeeper Sarah Nelin made 11 saves for the night.
