CONWAY, Ark. -- Caleb Lucas scored twice, but Oglethorpe scored a late goal to knock off Berry College, 3-2, in a Southern Athletic Association semifinal match on Saturday.

Berry ends its year at 10-6-3. The Stormy Petrels improved to 10-3-3 and face Millsaps for the SAA Championship on Sunday.

OU scored the winning goal in the 88th minute. Nick Williamson tallied off a pass from Eyal Schecter for the scores.

The score was 0-0 at halftime. The Stormy Petrels, however, recorded goals in the 50th and 51st minutes to take a 3-0 lead.

The Vikings, however, rallied. Lucas netted unassisted scores in the 67th and 72nd minute to knot the match at 2-2.

"It was a good game between two good teams," said Head Coach Richard Vardy.  "We came out very slow in the second half and were punished. I thought we showed character to fight back. We had a good overall a good team performance, but we made a few too many individual mistakes in the match."

Oglethorpe led in shots (14-8) and corner kicks (5-3).
