Ending a streak hurts. It especially hurts to have it halted by an arch rival. And so it went for the Crimson Tide Varsity Team last Monday as HilHi shut out Glencoe at Hare field 2-0 to end a 23 game NWOC winning streak amassed by the Tide since the league was formed in 2006. In a closely play match, it was Hillsboro who were able to cash in on its chances as Glencoe could not put the ball away and had one hit the post in the latter stages of the game.
The JV Team was unable to contain Hillsboro's long ball attack as they fell 1-3 on the Hare Field south pitch. The Spartans took the lead ten minutes into the match after Hilhi's Alberto Zarate put away a header past keeper Lawrence Chel. The Tide evened up the match closing on half-time when Dylan Costigan's forty yard free kick from midfield found Juan Carlos Hernandez wide open at the far post who slipped it into the net from ten yards. Glencoe fought hard to keep the match in midfield throughout the second half, but two late goals broke the Tide's back to hand the JV's their first loss of the year.
