JACKSON, Miss. – The Millsaps men's soccer team defeat rival Belhaven University 2-0 at home on Tuesday, Sept. 27.

The Majors played very well against the Blazers, scoring goals in both the first and second half and having an excellent defensive outing.

Offensively, Nico Roth led the way with one goal and one assist to Matt Crooker on the other goal. The Majors attempted eight shots, with Roth leading with four attempts. Crooker, Jan Bergk, and Alex Bourland also registered shots against Belhaven.

Johnathan Huebbe guarded the goal all 90 minutes, didn't allow any goals and had one save.
