Both the men's and women's soccer teams found success on the field over the Halloween weekend. These games were also the season closers for both teams.
On Saturday afternoon the women traveled to Lakeland, Florida to match up against the Florida Southern Moccasins. Also, for four seniors, Whitney Chamberlin, Laura Guild, Jordan Ward and Alexis Sutton, this was their last game.
Florida Southern collected the first goal of the game from the left side of the box in the 15th minute. Rollins answered back with about 15 minutes left in the first half when Whitney Chamberlin put the ball in from a scramble in front of the Moccasin goal. Then five minutes later, Chamberlin scored again off of a pass from freshman Danielle Martin.
The Tars defense won out over the Moccasins offense only allowing four shots the entire game. The Tars offense also performed well collecting 12 shots for the team. There was no scoring in the second half so the game ended with a score of Rollins with two goals and Florida Southern with one goal.
Unfortunately for the women, this season wasn't very successful and they end the season in sixth place in the Sunshine State Conference with a Conference record of 3-5-0 and 8-8-0 overall. The women will be back on the playing field again next fall.
The men's team on the other hand, has had a more winning season and has finished out the season in third place in the Sunshine State Conference.They went up against Florida Southern men's team later in the evening. Senior Ryan Dodds scored first in the 17th minute with a pass from senior Ben Owen.
But the Moccasins sent their highest scoring forward to tie up the game. At the half, the score was tied. The second half initially saw scoring after Jon Gruenewald sent a cross to Chris Cerroni and put the game in Rollins hands.
Then again in 62nd minute, senior Daniell Robertson got the ball in front of Tres Loch who touched the ball into the Moccasin's goal. Obviously feeling the pressure, Florida Southern put in another goal and attempted to take back control of the game. But shortly after Rollins sealed the game with another Cerroni goal assisted by Robertson again. The match ended and Rollins left victorious.
Once again the Tars led in shots 13 to 7. This game also was the 10th win this season which marks 8 years that the Rollins men have won 10 or more games in a season.
Their final season record is 10-5-0 and 6-2-0 in the Sunshine State Conference.
