The Chillicothe Hornets soccer team traveled to Savannah on Thursday and walked away with a 1-0 victory in cold, blustery conditions.
     The Hornets played into a strong north wind in the first half and managed a couple of scoring opportunities but could not find the back of the net. The defense was stout and was able to shut down Savannah's offensive attack who had the wind at their backs. The halftime score was 0-0.
     In the second half the Hornets were able to generate more offense and eventually in the 65th minute, Gracie Ellis pushed a ball through an opening to an oncoming Harlie Jones who sent a shot past the Savages goalkeeper. The rest of the half was back and forth and Chilli's defense thwarted a furious last minute effort by Savannah to score to preserve the 1-0 shutout.
     Chillicothe's record moves to 3-1 as they prepare for the Moberly tournament hosted next Friday.
