The Berry women's soccer team kicked off the Southern Athletic Association Tournament beating Millsaps 4-1 in a quarterfinal match Saturday at Bob Pearson Field.
The Vikings, now 11-5 overall and the No. 3 seed team in the tournament, found themselves in a defensive battle early with the Majors grabbing a 1-0 lead in the 33
rd minute when Ranee LeVasseur scored on a penalty kick.
But the Millsaps didn't hang on to its halftime lead for long when, with just two minutes elapsed in the second half,
Christina Marijanich found the back of the net, with an assist from
Anna Salisbury, to tie the game.
With 16 minutes left in the game the Vikings went on a scoring run that would eventually put the game in Berry's hands.
Ellie Sherrod gave Berry its first lead of the game with under 18 minutes left in the match with an unassisted goal. Two minutes later,
Kendall Varitek added a goal of her own increasing the Vikings' lead to 3-1.
But Berry wasn't done yet as
Karsen Brantley added one more goal a minute later to close out the scoring.
