Late Goals Surge Choctaws Past Majors

JACKSON – The Millsaps Majors Women's Soccer Team dropped in third consecutive game as they fell to arch rivals Mississippi College on Monday night by score of 3-0. The loss drops the Majors down to 2-6.

Senior Molly Beth Jourdan had a great day in goal as she continuously made saves, picking up seven on the night. Mississippi College dominated possession throughout the game, but the Majors defense held strong throughout the first half despite being outshot 6-1.

In the second half, the Choctaws finally broke through when they received a controversial penalty kick inside the box. Lesly Melo just put it by a diving Jourdan to put Mississippi College up 1-0. The Choctaws added two more goals before time ran out to take the game.

Junior Margaret Eggers led the attack for Millsaps sending two shots off while junior Dora Lambert and sophomores Grace Gremillion and Jamie Blair Page added one a piece.

Millsaps remains at home this weekend as they open up conference play against the Hendrix Warriors. First kick is set for 6 p.m. at Harper Davis Field.
