COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — The Class 4A boys soccer world has been dominated by Northfield in recent years. But on Saturday -- another team got its turn.
Battle Mountain, playing in a rematch of last year's championship game, took down the Nighthawks 2-0 at Weidner Field to capture just its second state title in program history and first since 2012.
"We came here last year, in the same situation against the same team, and they sent us home," said senior forward Cooper Skidmore, who scored the second goal of the game. "It's nice to bring ourselves back."
Battle Mountain went 18-1-1 overall on the run to the title, and spoiled Northfield's hopes of a perfect season (19-1).
