Men's Soccer Upsets #6 MGCCC 3-0 at Home

RAYMOND, Miss. - The Hinds Community College men's soccer team put on a historic performance after upsetting #6 ranked Mississippi Guf Coast CC by a final score of 3-0 on Tuesday evening at Tom Shepherd Field. The Bulldogs came into the match-up ranked #6 in the nation and undefeated, but that didn't stop the Eagles from putting on show. With the win, Hinds moves to 5-0 on the season.

The first 45 minutes of play was a back and forth affair as neither team could find the back of the net. Both teams exchanged possessions and had opportunities to score, but the Eagles and Bulldogs rejected the other teams opportunities. 

Coming out the halftime break, the Eagles quickly found the back of the net when Diego Oritz found reigning MACCC Offensive Player of the Week Cody Barnett in the box as Hinds took the 1-0 advantage over the Bulldogs. After a mishap from the Bulldogs' keeper, Cody Barnett once again found the back of the net to double the Eagles' advantage. Two minutes later, Barnett found Oscar Tovar in the box as he drilled the back of the net to extend the lead to 3-0. Hinds defense held strong for the rest of the match as the Eagles defeated MGCCC by a final of 3-0. Keeper Elliot Duffy played all 90 minutes in goal for the Eagles and posted three saves. 

Hinds will return to action on Saturday, September 14 against Southwest Mississippi CC in Summit. Kickoff is set for 5 PM.
