Gulf Coast claws back to defeat ECCC, 3-1

The Warriors of East Central Community College fell to 2-3-1 on the season on Sunday afternoon as the Mississippi Gulf Coast Bulldogs got a 3-1 victory. The match was held on Gulf Coast's turf football field at A.L. May Memorial Stadium due to wet weather. 

The Warriors were in control early with a goal from Kai VanCourt (Long Beach). The score came off a corner-kick assists from Kayro Serrano-Arteaga (Forest) and took the Warriors to the half with a 1-0 advantage. 

The Bulldogs capitalized on set pieces in the second half as three goals found the back of the net, all off corner kicks. 

The goals put MGCCC on top, 3-1, and the Warriors were unable to equal them down the stretch. 

The Warriors do not return to the pitch until Friday, April 23 as ECCC plays host to the Holmes Bulldogs at Bailey Stadium in Decatur. The men are scheduled for a 3 p.m. kickoff and fans can watch the game live at www.eccclive.com/gold.
