Tony Moffat's first half goal and a second-half penalty kick by Devin Mizell to a 2-0 win over High Point Saturday afternoon at Albion Millis Stadium.

The Panthers fall to 2-8-1 and saw their Homecoming spoiled, while the Eagles improved to 3-5-2 on the year.

Georgia Southern, which outshot the Panthers 10-7, had just two shots on goal to HPU's four, but the Eagles capitalized on both and turned them into goals.

Moffat gave GSU the only score it would need in the 37th minute on a diagonal shot from just inside the box out of reach of diving HPU keeper Matt Long. Justin Gonzales and Brad Mitchum received assists on the play, which gave the Eagles a 1-0 lead.

Mizell, who entered as a substitute at halftime, scored the Eagles' other goal after he was fouled in the box in the 57th minute and pushed the penalty shot past Long for an insurance goal.

HPU's best chance to score came in the 89th minute when Matt Wood broke free in the middle of the field, but a nice save by GSU keeper Kirk Latibeaudiere kept the shutout intact. Latibeaudiere made four saves on the afternoon.

Wood led HPU with two shots, both on goal. The physical game featured seven yellow cards, with five coming in the final eight minutes of play.

High Point visits local rival Wake Forest Tuesday night. Kickoff in Winston-Salem is set for 7:00 pm.
