Junior forward Louis Catchpole of Austin College moved to the top of the SCAC leaderboard in goals scored over the weekend, notching his 12th of the season in a draw with Centenary. Catchpole was a constant threat throughout the weekend, firing off 14 shots, including putting seven on target in a pair of games. Senior midfielder Hunter Booth of Centenary scored a pair of goals in last Friday’s 3-1 comeback win at Dallas. Booth became the first Gent to score multiple games in a goal this year, tying the match in the 74th minute and then putting away the insurance marker in the 87th minute.
