Men’s soccer sees Senior Day success

DANVILLE, Ky. – Centre men's soccer had a great Senior Day as the Colonels blanked Southern Athletic Association (SAA) foe Sewanee in head coach Jeb Burch's 250th win. 

The Gold & White clinched the No. 3 seed in the upcoming SAA Tournament with the win. Centre's record sits at 7-6-3 overall and 3-1-3 in the SAA at the conclusion of the regular season. 

GAME HIGHLIGHTS 
- The Colonels tallied seven shots in the first half, with three on goal, to the Tigers' three. Sewanee was held back by the Gold & White defense and got no shots on frame off in the first half. 
- John Palomino broke the match's scoring seal in the second frame. In the 73rd minute, a Colonel corner kick landed inside the goal area and was originally deflected by the visitor's keeper. Palomino found the ball with his foot and sent it into the back of the net. 
- The next Centre goal was a Senior Day special. Senior Sam Brunner scored his first goal as a Colonel after he played an errant Tiger ball perfectly into the left side of the goal in the 85th minute. 
- The Gold & White stood strong the final five minutes and left Amend Field with a 2-0 shutout win.
