Effingham High School saw its winning streak come to a halt in soccer action Thursday.

The Hearts fell to Mount Zion by a 1-0 count.

"After a tough week with three challenging opponents in three days, we gave it our all," said EHS Coach Logan Arney. "We played very strong but couldn't quite end on top. We ended the game with 21 shots and 14 shots on target compared to eight shots, showing that we played a strong game.

"It was a challenging game but I'm extremely proud of the team. Having a record of 14-1 is amazing accomplishments that shows that this is a great team. We learn more from our losses then we do our wins, so we'll learn from tonight, come together stronger than before and look to finish the season together.

"We look ahead to our next game against Richland County this upcoming Monday."

The Hearts are now 14-1 on the season.
