GEORGETOWN, Texas - With determination in their eyes and in their all black uniforms the Southwestern men's soccer team kept their conference undefeated streak alive with a 4-1 victory over Colorado College on Sunday afternoon. With the win the Pirates improve to 7-4 on the year and 4-0 in the SCAC.

With less than 30 seconds ticked of the clock at the start of the game SU pounced on the Tigers with great team execution on the attack. After a throw in Forrest Baker found Evan Perkins in front of the goal who unselfishly made the one extra pass to Alex Keller (pictured) who was open two yards behind Perkins. Keller's shot slid under the crossbar giving the Tigers' keeper no chance at the save.

Southwestern didn't relax after the go-ahead goal and used a Tiger error to their advantage. CC's defender passed the ball back to the keeper who picked up the ball giving SU an indirect free kick not more than five yards from the goal line. Colin McCulloch touched the ball and Ryan Staten followed with a missle into the back of the net to put Southwestern up 2-0 in less than five minutes.

When most teams would begin a defensive-minded game Southwestern continued to press and their tenacity was rewarded. McCulloch floated a beautiful ball from midfield to Keller who was streaking towards the corner. Keller collected and chipped the ball to Perkins in front of the goal to put SU up 3-0.

The Tigers had a couple of solid looks at goal including one shot that bounced off the cross bar and another punched over the net by Nick Peirce. The 3-0 lead lasted until after the break.

Less than 10 minutes into the second half Colorado College pulled closer. A short, quick play corner kick was played into the box and Parham's shot careened off SU's defender and bounced into the goal bringing CC within two, 3-1.

Keller pushed the lead back to three when he won the 50/50 ball off a goal kick that drifted in the wind deep into attacking territory. After settling the ball Keller beat two CC defenders, faked the hard shot and then soft touched his shot just inside the low right-hand corner to put Southwestern back up by three, 4-1.

The Southwestern defense kept the Tigers caged for the remainder of the game, allowing the Pirates to close out the match with a 4-1 win.

SU had 16 shots to Colorado's 13 and took eight corners while the Tigers had nine. Keller finished with two goals and one assist, Perkins with one goal and one assist, Staten with one goal and Baker and McCulloch with one and two assists respectively.

The Pirates put their perfect record on the line as they play host to Birmingham Southern on Friday at home following the women's game at approximately 4:00 pm.
