Box Score

SEWANEE, Tenn. (Oct. 22, 2016)  A goal in each half led Southern Athletic Association (SAA) rival Centre to a 2-0 win over the Sewanee men's soccer team, Saturday, at Puett Field.

The Tigers closed their regular season with a 7-9-2 overall record. The Tigers are scheduled to play at Millsaps in the SAA quarterfinals next weekend. Earlier this season, Sewanee defeated the Majors, 3-1.

Overall, the Colonels outshot the Tigers 13-7. Sewanee, who had one All-SAA performer go out with an injury and multiple other starters limited because of various afflictions, finished with one corner.
