Chazy's long winning streak broken by Willsboro: Warriors 3, Chazy 1.

Chazy lost a conference game for the first time since 2004, as Willsboro shocked the Eagles with a 3-1 win.

The move to the new Northern Soccer League promised to be a challenge, with the Eagles playing against bigger schools. But it was their old MVAC rivals Willsboro who were the first to defeat the defending state champions.

Clay Sherman scored on a breakaway in the first half to give the hosts the lead, and Willsboro scored on two corner kicks later in the half to grab a stunning 3-0 lead. Nathan Reynolds scored a late goal to get the Eagles back to within two goals, but it was not nearly enough.

Congrats to Willsboro for the win, and to Chazy for putting together such a long streak. Hopefully they can start another one soon, but the new league has already proven to be a tough challenge.
