MOREHEAD, Ky. – The Eastern Kentucky University soccer team fell at in-state rival Morehead State, 4-0, on Friday night in the Colonels' regular season finale at Jayne Stadium.

With the loss, EKU drops out of contention for a spot in the Ohio Valley Conference Tournament. The Colonels finish the 2013 campaign with a record of 5-12-2 (4-5-1 OVC). Morehead State improves to 8-11-1 (7-3-0 OVC).
