Morehead Middle boy’s soccer team suffered a hard loss in the championship game against Newport on Monday afternoon. Both teams played hard, but Newport prevailed in an upsetting two to one loss.
The game started at a fast pace and both teams left the field at the half scoreless. In the second half, Calvin Moore pulled the trigger on a shot outside of the eighteen to put Morehead up one to nothing. A little while later, Newport answered back with a goal to tie it up. With six minutes left in the game, Newport put another shot in the back of the net. Although they were down a goal, Morehead held on and played their hardest to the whistle. The second half was very intense with each team earning a yellow card.
