PORTSMOUTH — The St. Joseph Flyers appear to have an affinity for the number “zero.”
The Flyers gave up zero goals on Tuesday in a 10-0 Southern Ohio Conference soccer win over the Portsmouth Clay Panthers.
With the win, the Flyers now have 6 wins and zero losses including 3 wins and zero losses in the SOC.
Freshman goalkeeper Beckham Waginger had 8 saves to help the Flyers keep the zero theme going.
