High School Rewind: Mooresville snaps Christ The King soccer win streak
Mooresville snapped two-time defending state champion Christ the King’s 14-match winning streak Monday night, blanking the host Crusaders 5-0 in a nonconference boys’ soccer match.
It was the first loss for Christ the King since the middle of last season.
In this matchup of a 4A school against a 1A opponent, the big school took an early lead and never looked back.
Tanner Small and Payton Popp each scored twice for the Blue Devils (2-1).
The last time Christ the King (1-1) lost by five goals was four years ago – also against Mooresville.
