SHREVEPORT, La. - The Millsaps women's soccer lost a tough game 1-0 on the road against Centenary College on Sunday afternoon.

An early goal set the Majors back 1-0 in the fifteenth minute of the first half. The goal by Centenary's Kortney Causey was a slow roller across the goal line, and an unlucky miss for Millsaps goal keeper, Sarah Nelin.

The sweltering heat was almost unbearable for the players, causing Coach Paul Van Hooydonk to refer to his bench for substitutes.

Fortunately, the Majors showed their depth, and the substitutes held their own against the Centenary offense, allowing no more goals to be scored.

The Majors leading scorer, Jessica Harris, created opportunity to score, but failed to put any away. Perhaps the Majors greatest chance of an equalizer came in the final minutes of the game by a combination of
Harris' and Haley Nemeth's efforts. However, the Majors were unable to capitalize on any of their chances, remaining goalless at the end of the game.

The Centenary ladies outshot the Majors 20-9 and received 6 corner kicks over Millsaps' 5. Sarah Nelin grabbed 9 saves, while Centenary's Kayln Harris had 5 saves. Centenary had 11 called fouls to Millsaps' 4.

The Majors' record stands at 5-2 as they are set to go on the road this weekend to take on the University Dallas on Friday, September 24, 2010 at 4:00 pm in Irving, Texas.
