On October 15, 2010 the Soccer Lions got back to their winning ways when they traveled to LaGrange College to defeat the NCAA DIII foe, 2-0.
The Soccer Lions got on the board in the 25th minute when a cross from Eddie Green(FR) found Benji Malone, who smashed a side volley into the back of the net, to take the score to 1-0. The score line stayed at 1-0 in favor of Emmanuel going into halftime.
Emmanuel kept the pressure on as the second half began. The Soccer Lions applied so much pressure that LaGrange had to commit a foul inside their penalty area to keep Eddie Green from scoring. This foul resulted in a penalty kick that was converted by Sebastian Paz(SR) in the 57th minute.
The score would stay at 2-0 despite the continuous pressure by the Soccer Lions attack. Emmanuel was able to outshoot LaGrange 20-1. Of the 20 shots, the Lions put 13 on frame, while LaGrange did not have any shots on target.
The Soccer Lions are set to return to their conference schedule on October 19th when they travel to Mount Vernon, Georgia to take on SSAC foe Brewton Parker College.
