CLINTON- The Millsaps Women's Soccer team took to the field to face cross-town rivals Mississippi College on Monday afternoon. Five goals were produced between the two teams, putting on an entertaining game.

The scoring opened up in the ninth minute with a goal by Mississippi College midfielder Lauren Prescott.  The Majors battled back to get the equalizing goal in the 31st minute with a goal by Whitney Murchison off of a corner kick by Kaleigh Redhead after being pinged around in the box by a few players.

Just eight minutes later the Majors took the lead with a goal scored from the penalty spot by Redhead, after a foul in the 18 yard box.

The teams went into the half with the Majors leading the No. 1 Team in the ASC, 2-1. 

Mississippi College was eager to get the score back on level terms at the start of the second half. The Choctaws were able to provide the equalizer with a goal from Melanie Benner from a set piece opportunity outside of the 18 yard box in the 65th minute.

Moria Kelley scored the go-ahead goal for the Choctaws in the 73rd minute. The Majors pushed to score a third goal in the last 17 minutes of game but came up short.
