"This was a good, organized team, in Maryville, " coach Steve Voltz said. " I was proud of the way we attacked and the way we held off their attack in the first half."

Roth struck first in the 16th minute as he got a feed from Elmhammar in front of the keeper to make it 1-0 Majors. The Majors kept the pressure on Maryville but could not find the back of the net again in the first half. Huebbe made a couple of saves in the final minutes of the half to keep it 1-0 Millsaps at the half. 

The Majors continued to press in the start of the second 45, before Hayden scored in the 60th minute. The senior got a feed from Elmhammar and chipped it over the keeper to make it 2-0. 

The Scots would get on the board in the 70th minute as their continued pressure led to a header by David Lethco off a crossing pass to make it 2-1. 

Millsaps was quick to make it a two-goal game again, scoring just three minutes later. Elmhammar put one past the keeper from about 15 yards out that gave the Majors back their two-goal lead. The Saints would pressure a bit late, but Huebbe made two of his five saves on the day and the Majors improved to 3-0 on the season. 

"I am proud of the way we responded and got that goal so quick,"Johnathan (Huebbe) played very well and so did our back four, starting two freshman, that was big."

The Majors will have a quick turnaround as they will take on the host Covenant Scots tomorrow evening.
