Shreveport. – The Centenary men's soccer team looks for its fourth-straight victory Friday as the Gents open Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference play against the Johnson and Wales Wildcats in a match set for 7 p.m. at Mayo Field.

The Gents (4-2) have won three in a row, all shutouts, and 4-0 at home. Centenary defeated the University of Dallas and Austin College by identical 1-0 scores this past weekend after crushing Hendrix, 7-0, on Sept. 24. All four Centenary victories this season have been shutouts and the Gents have outscored the opposition 15-8 on the season.

Centenary and Johnson and Wales previously met in Denver back on Sept. 15 with the Wildcats earning a 3-1 comeback victory over the Maroon and White. Centenary held a 1-0 lead at the half until Johnson and Wales erupted for three goals in the final 18 minutes of the game, two coming on a free kick and a penalty kick. The Wildcats (1-7-1) have not won a game since then while the Gents have not lost since then not have they allowed a goal.

Centenary's Diego Hernandez was named the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference Men's Soccer Defensive Player of the Week, it was announced by the league office on Monday.

Hernandez (Carrollton, Texas), a sophomore defender, led a Gents back line that posted the three shutouts last week at home. He played 250 of the 270 minutes in wins over Hendrix, Austin College, and the University of Dallas.
