BOX SCORE

MACON, Ga. -- In its final game of the season, the Longwood University men's soccer team battled Division I Mercer to a 1-1 tie Saturday evening. The Lancers finished the season with a record of 6-10-1.

Though neither team found the back of the net in the first half, Longwood narrowly missed a goal towards the end of the frame. Freshman forward James Agorsor (Gambrills, Md./South River) headed a ball past Bear keeper Jonathan Riley but Jason Erickson was there to head the ball out of the goal.

The Lancers got on the board first in the 73rd minute when freshman forward Henrik Agerskov (Denmark/Rungstead Gymnasium) ran on to a ball misplayed by the Mercer defense and fired a shot out of the reach of Riley.

Michael Smith evened the score eight minutes later, notching his first goal of the season. Alan Colgan started the scoring attack, finding an open Del Olaoye in the middle of the field.
