            North Little Rock, Ark. – Returning home after a midweek road trip, Central Baptist College men's soccer hosted the Hornets of Harris-Stowe State University today in an American Midwest Conference match at Burns Park. CBC (4-8, 1-1 AMC) got behind early, netted a goal just before halftime, but couldn't get another one as they dropped a 2-1 contest to HSSU (3-5-4, 1-2 AMC).

            Joe McElhinney scored his second goal of the season in the 44^th minute off a free kick from Parker Tebo. His header deflected in past the keeper to cut the deficit in half after Harris-Stowe scored in the 11^th minute and on a penalty kick in the 24^th minute. Jafar Chehade made his first career start in goal and made four saves while playing all 90 minutes.

            CBC continues their season-ending stretch to conference play on Tuesday when they head to St. Louis to take on the Missouri Baptist Spartans. Kickoff is scheduled for 3 p.m.
