The Belmont Abbey men's soccer team fell to the second-ranked Lees-McRae Bobcats 2-0 at Tate Field, wrapping up their Conference Carolinas schedule with a 9-1 record and the number one seed in next week's Conference Tournament. The Bobcats overall record improves to 15-1-1 while the Crusaders slip to 11-8 (5-4 Conference Carolinas).

Junior midfielder Kyle McGimsey (Plant City, FL) opened the scoring for the Bobcats with his fifth of the season in the 30th minute. After holding the 1-0 cushion after halftime, McGimsey would bury his second of the game and sixth of the season in the 53rd minute for a 2-0 lead, which would be the final score.

Bryan Alenky made two saves in the net for the Abbey.

The Crusaders are back in action Saturday at 3:00 p.m. when it hosts St. Andrews Presbyterian on Senior Day.
