The Gents (2-3-1, 2-2 SCAC) fell 2-0 at Colorado College last Saturday while the Pirates (2-0-2, 2-0-2 SCAC) tied Trinity, 1-1, last Friday on the road. The teams will meet for the first time since the Pirates claimed a 3-1 win over the Gents in the regular-season finale at Mayo Field last season.

The Gents' game in Colorado last Saturday was scoreless until the Tigers' Skyl Stark-Ragsdale found the net in the 40th minute to give Colorado College 1 -0 lead off an assist from Kevin Peterson which it took into the halftime locker room. Centenary took five shots to the Tigers' two in the first half and the Tigers had three corner kicks to the Gents' two. Kiran Singh scored the Tigers' second goal in the 72nd minute off the assist from Jackson Silverstein to make it 2-0.

Gents' junior goalkeeper Sami Borchalli (Lafayette, La.) played all 90 minutes and made five saves. Borchalli has made 24 saves this season with a save percentage of .727 and has one shutout. The Gents' dynamic pair of sophomore midfielders, Andres Bautista (Houston, Texas) and Jaron Petreas (Denton, Texas) are tied for the team lead in goals (two) and Bautista is the team leader in assists (two) for a total of six point while Petreas has four points.

Centenary faces Schreiner on April 10 for Senior Day in their home finale and then finish the regular season at Texas Lutheran on April 17. Centenary then will serve as host for the 2021 SCAC Men's Soccer Championship on April 23 and 25 at Mayo Field.
