JACKSON – The Millsaps Majors Women's Soccer Team took control from the opening whistle to the final horn as they knocked off the Hendrix Warriors 2-0 at Harper Davis Field on Friday evening. The win ended a 15-conference losing streak and brought the Majors to 1-0 in SCAC play.

Millsaps (3-6, 1-0 SCAC) dominated possession in the first half, getting many opportunities and taking five shots, but did not have a goal to show for it.

That changed early in the second half as the Majors set up earned a corner kick. Sophomore Kaleigh Redhead sent a great ball into the box where junior Margaret Eggers raced through the Warrior defense and finished the header to give Millsaps a 1-0 lead. It was Eggers' third goal of the season.

Hendrix (4-6, 0-1 SCAC) attempted to get back in the game as they attacked the Majors in their territory, but senior goalkeeper Molly Beth Jourdan was not letting anything by her, picking up four saves in the second half and six total.

The Majors put things away for good when Redhead took a free kick from about 20 yards out and buried it in the back of the net for her first goal of the season. It was all Millsaps needed as they cruised to victory.

It is the first time since 2008 that Millsaps started the SCAC season 1-0. They hit the road on Sunday as they travel to Montgomery, Alabama to take on the Huntingdon Hawks at 3 p.m.
