DANVILLE-The Centre Colonels downed the Millsaps Majors 19-5 in a conference match Friday afternoon in Danville, Kentucky.
The Majors hung with the Colonels through the majority of the game, but Centre's depth proved to be too much as the game went on into the fourth quarter.
Adam Shubert and Simon Sherman scored 30 seconds apart from each other in the first quarter as the Majors cut the Centre lead to 3-2. The Colonels went on an absolute tear, scoring 13 unanswered goals over two-plus quarters to put the game away.
Sherman would strike again in the fourth to end the run. Scott Budd would follow with two goals of his own in the fourth, but it was not enough. Chris Hood was under siege for most of the contest, played well in between the pipes and faced a barrage of 44 shots from Centre.
The loss drops the Majors to 3-6 on the year and 0-3 in conference. They will travel to Sewanee to take on the Tigers tomorrow afternoon for a 1pm faceoff.
