The Rhodes Lynx Men's Soccer team competed in the SAA championship this weekend on the campus of Oglethorpe University in Atlanta, Georgia. The Lynx were the two seed in the tournament and secured a spot in the semifinals with a victory over seven-seed Berry last weekend.

In the semifinals, the Lynx took on three-seed Centre in an absolute nailbiter, in a game that saw no score until the very end of the game. Behind two saves from Nate Slota, the game was tied 0-0 until the 87th minute. In the 88th minute, Max Sosa-Haemmerli knocked one into the back of the net, putting the Lynx up 1-0 with just over a minute to play. This lone goal helped the Lynx to advance to the championship game against Oglethorpe.

In the championship game, which was one of three championships that Lynx teams competed in on Sunday, the Lynx defense held strong for 63 minutes. After this, Oglethorpe scored three goals, defeating the Lynx 3-0. Although this championship game was a disappointing loss, the Lynx still finished at an impressive 12-2-3 on the season and 5-0-2 in conference play, gaining the title of conference runner-up.
