ATLANTA – The Oglethorpe men's soccer team lost to Emory 3-0 Tuesday night in the final nonconference game of the season.
Emory broke open the scoring in the seventh minute and it proved to be all the scoring the host Eagles would need. Josh Grand scored it on Emory's first shot of the game before the Eagles doubled the lead in the 39th minute on a goal from Will Tichy.
The Eagles then opened the second half like they did the first, scoring less than six minutes in on a goal from Zach Kornblum in the 51st minute to round out the scoring.
