JACKSON, Miss. -- Postseason play is right around the corner for NCAA Division III soccer teams, but the Millsaps College Majors have one final regular season test remaining on their regular-season schedule.
Tomorrow, the Majors will welcome the Panthers of Birmingham-Southern College to Harper Davis Field for a Southern Athletic Association showdown.
Saturday afternoon will also serve as Senior Day for Millsaps.
Last Time Out
Last weekend was Homecoming for the Majors. On Friday they entertained the Tigers of Sewanee. The match was scoreless at halftime, but a pair of quick strikes from the Tigers midway through the second half proved to be the difference in the 2-1 loss.
On Sunday afternoon Millsaps hosted Centre College. The visiting Colonels led 2-0 at halftime, and added a goal midway through the second half to secure the 3-0 win.
With the pair of losses the Majors head into this weekend 5-9 on the year. They are 1-5 in SAA play.
Tomorrow: Birmingham-Southern College (6-7-1, 2-4 SAA), 3:30 p.m., Harper Davis Field
The Panthers come into the weekend off of a 4-0 loss against Sewanee. BSC is on a four-game losing streak with their last win coming against Rhodes back on October 5. They also hold a conferene win over Hendrix.
Key Players for the Panthers
The BSC offensive attack is led by two key players. Freshman Coleman Jennings leads the team with seven goals, while sophomore Christian Hernandez has chipped in five. Those two players are responsible for better than 50% of the Panther's offensive production. Hernandez also has a team-high five assists on the year. He ranks fourth best in the SAA in assists.
Defensively, senior Kurt Moore is the primary goalkeeper for BSC. In nearly 1,300 minutes of game action he holds a .658 saves percentage. He has allowed 40 total goals and made 77 saves.
