MCC Soccer Sweeps Past Southwest



From School Reports

The Meridian Community College soccer program returned to the field on Tuesday with a road trip to Southwest Mississippi Community College for a pair of key early season conference games.

MCC came away with a doubleheader sweep over Southwest by a final score of 4-3 in women's action and a final score of 2-1 in the men's match. The MCC women improved to 2-1 overall and 2-0 in MACJC South division play, while the MCC men moved to a perfect 4-0 overall and 2-0 in conference action.

MCC will return to the field on Friday night at C.D. Smith Field for another pair of South Division games against Jones County Junior College. The women's match against JCJC is scheduled for 5 p.m. and the men's match will follow at 7 p.m.

The Lady Eagles erased a 3-1 deficit in the second half of play on Tuesday afternoon against Southwest to take a dramatic 4-3 overtime win over the Lady Bears. Sophomore Effie Morrison scored two goals in the second half of play for the Lady Eagles to pace the comeback and completed the hat trick with her third goal in the overtime session. Abbey Pate also added a goal in the one-goal win, while Zaria Husband had a pair of assists and Gabby Joyce had the assist on the final goal in overtime for MCC.

The MCC men scored two goals in the first half of play on Tuesday against the Bears and were able to hold on for the 2-1 victory. Freshman Pedro Dutra scored the first goal of the match for MCC in the 15th minute of play and Dutra would later add an assist on a goal by Donja Smith to pace the offense for the Eagles.
