Demorest, Ga. – The Millsaps Majors Men's Lacrosse Team struggled out of the gate on Saturday as they hit the road for the first time this season and took on the Piedmont Lions. Millsaps put together a much better second half and hung tough with the Lions in the fourth quarter, but eventually fell 21-6.
 
Piedmont took control in the first and halfway through the second quarter as they took an 8-0 lead. The Majors got on the board at the 9:28 mark as sophomore Brandon Allison found the back of the net thanks to an assist from sophomore Hunter Stevison. Allison struck again four minutes, but Millsaps faced an 11-2 deficit at half.
 
After giving up a goal, freshman Scott Bud opened the second half with a goal with Stevison getting the assist again; however, Piedmont ran away with it. Stevison, Allison, and sophomore Ryan McKay all added goals in the remainder of the second half.
 
Allison's three goals led the way offensively for Millsaps while McKay added three groundballs. Sophomore Chris Hood picked up 13 saves on the afternoon.
 
The Majors return to action on Wednesday, March 14th as they take on Shorter College in Rome, Georgia. Faceoff is set for 7 p.m.
