Box Score LAKELAND, Fla. | Florida Memorial University was eliminated from the SUN Conference Tournament after falling 2-1 to No. 12 Southeastern in overtime at the SEU Soccer Field.

With the goal, the Lions forced overtime against the Fire, and SEU scored in the 96th minute to put an end to the Lions' season.
