Box Score $website.include("options")

BREVARD, N.C. - Freshman forward Tyler Nelson (Hope Mills, N.C.) strikes for a late second half header goal, as the Brevard College Men's Soccer team (5-3, 2-2 SAC) captures their second straight South Atlantic Conference victory with a 2-1 defeat of the Mars Hill Lions (3-4, 2-2 SAC).


The Tornados would take a 1-0 lead into halftime following a late first half unassisted goal by Gabriel Pastrana (Concord, N.C.) as the senior captain scored his team leading third goal of the season.


Mars Hill would equal the contest at 1-1 just over 10 minutes into second half action when Franck Lannaud scored his fifth score of the year, coming off an assist by Stian Sanner.


The Lions and Tornados would battle over 30 minutes of scoreless action, as with time winding down in regulation, senior midfielder Camilo Sosa (Shelby, N.C.) played a beautiful throw in to the head of the awaiting Nelson, who found the back of the Mars Hill net for this third score of the year.


Brevard would hold a 17-12 shot advantage of the Lions for the match as Pastrana and junior Jesse Omezi (Dartford, England) ended the conference bout with three shots apiece. Omezi would finish the contest with two shots on goal, while Sosa would land two additional shots on frame as well. In addition to offensive output of Nelson and Pastrana, seven other blue and white members would record atleast one shot attempt in the event.


Additionally, the Tornados would force Lions keeper Ben Lucas to make eight saves in the contest, while Brevard senior goaltender Heath Turner (Kansas City, Mo.) would help to preserve the BC win by recording four saves of his own.


The Tornados will look to make it three consecutive triumphs in a row this coming Tuesday as they host Mount Olive at the Brevard Soccer Field with action slated to get underway at 4 p.m.
