The women's soccer team defeated Millsaps in Jackson, Miss. on Sunday afternoon to give Oglethorpe its first victory over an SCAC opponent since 2006 and its first 8-win season since 2000.

The Petrels got two goals within 45 seconds of one another from Sasha Alonzo and Courtney Phillips in the game's 17th minute to light the way to their first SCAC win since topping Millsaps by the same 4-2 score on November 3, 2006. After giving up a goal for a 2-1 halftime advantage, Kristen Koch found the back of the net in the 68th minute for a 3-1 Petrel lead. The Majors cut the deficit to 3-2 in the 73rd minute but Alexandria Vassell put the contest away in the 87th minute with a goal of her own.

The Petrels outshot the Majors 18-7 and held an 11-5 advantage in corners taken to get the much needed SCAC victory. With the win Oglethorpe finishes the season with an 8-9-2 record for the most wins for the program since a 10-7-2 campaign nearly a decade ago in 2000.
