MARS HILL, N.C. - The Mars Hill men's soccer team (3-8-1, 0-6 SAC) was shutout by Carson-Newman (9-2-1, 5-1-1 SAC) by a score of 3-0 Wednesday night.

The Eagles struck late in the first half to enter the final 45 minutes up 1-0. Evan Harr chipped the ball over the shoulder of Brennan Whalen to net his first of the year in the 42nd minute.

Two goals in the span of 2:38 in the second half tripled the Carson-Newman lead as Will Sainsbury-Logan and Nic Carsh netted their third and fourth goals, respectively, on the season.

A late rush by the Lions was their best opportunity of the night, however, the attempted shot went wide of the cage.
