Mount Berry, Ga. -- For the second straight day, the Lynchburg College men's soccer team earned a 1-0 victory over a Georgia-based foe as the Hornets buzzed past Berry College on Monday afternoon.

Senior forward Fredy Flores (Alexandria, Va.) finished a nice ninth-minute feed from Collin Kashmer (Halifax, Va.) for the game's lone score, and Dylan McLaurin (Stafford, Va.) made three saves in goal to preserve the shutout win.
