The Piedmont Colleg men's soccer team fell to Emory University, nationally ranked #11, today on Walker Field by the score of 6-0. The match marked the final regular-season home contest for the Lions.

Senior Diego Montoya (pictured) was recognized before the start of the match for his four years of service to the PC men's soccer team. During Montoya's four years the Lions earned three Great South Athletic Conference championships and reached the NCAA Division-III postseason Sweet 16 in 2003 the first year of the program's eligibility.
