BOX SCORE AUSTIN, Texas -- The Concorida Texas men's soccer team used strong offensive pressure to grab a 3-1 victory over Centenary College Friday afternoon at St. Stephen's Episcopal School.

The Tornados (2-0) out-shot the Gents (1-1) 22-2 in the contest and possessed the ball for most of the game.

Diego Outerial scored the first goal of the game about 20 minutes into the contest when he netted the ball off a rebound. Fabian Billings set up the play after a great shot--and equally good save by Centenary keeper Rylan Whan.

The Gents would draw even on a penalty kick goal by Ivann Amaya with 7:30 left in the opening half. The draw wouldn't last long, however. Just 90 seconds later. the Tornados would grab the lead for the final time. Matthew Butler tickled the twine after a great feed from Isaiah Coombs.

Carl Linn would add the third Concordia tally with just under one minute remaining in the game on a great backfooted shot. It was his second goal of the season. Alejandro Labastida was credited with the assist.

The Tornados return to St. Stephen's Sunday against the University of Dallas. Kickoff is slated for 3 p.m.
