Shreveport - The Centenary men's soccer team was blanked 2-0 by the Colorado College Tigers on Sunday afternoon in a Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference contest at Stewart Field.
The Gents (5-4-1, 1-2 SCAC) had a quick turnaround after falling 2-1 at home on Friday to the University of St. Thomas. The Tigers improved to 8-1-2 overall and 3-0 in SCAC play with Sunday's win. Colorado College now leads the all-time series 19-3-1 and has won four in a row.
The teams battled to a scoreless tie at halftime and it remained that way until the Tigers' Wyatt Linggi scored in the 55th minute for a 1-0 lead. The goal was Linggi's third of the season and double assists were credited to Oliver Ramirez and Rex Karjian. Ramirez then scored in the 73rd minute to make it 2-0 with Alex Meyerhoff tallying the assist.
The aggressive Tigers' offense outshot the Gents 36-3 and took 10 corner kick to Centenary's one. Colorado College finished with 18 shots on goal while Centenary had just two.
Centenary freshman GK Sebastian Lutin (Fort Worth, Texas) made 16 saves in his 90 minutes in the net, finishing one save shy of the division III era (2011-present) single-match record of 17. Lutin, who entered the weekend as the conference leader in saves and the current SCAC Men's Soccer Co-Defensive Player of the Week, made a season-high 10 saves on Friday against the Celts to finish with an impressive 26 in his two weekend matches. Tigers' GK Spencer Besselaar also went the distance and made two saves while recording his fourth shutout of the season.
The Gents are back on the road next weekend for a pair of league matches at Austin College (Friday, Oct. 11 at 6 PM) and the University of Dallas (Sunday, Oct. 13 at Noon).
