FRANKLIN SPRINGS, Ga.- Strong play in goal from freshman goalie Brallam Cux and an overall team effort from the Hawks elevated them to a 1-0 victory over Emmanuel Wednesday night. 

The Hawks and Lions battled in the early going, trading shots and playing physical. Matthew Molina put the Hawks in front with a goal less then 10 minutes remaining in the first period to give Shorter the lead before the break. 

Shorter's defense held strong in the second half, as the Lions delivered a flurry of shots to Brallam Cux. In Cux's first career start, the freshman tallied seven saves and recorded a clean sheet as the Hawks shut down the Lions in the second half to walk away with the victory.
