LHS led MHS 1-0 at the half. 

In the second half, at the 17:21 mark, Luis Rivas scored the lone MHS goal, with the assist credited to Geoffrey Mitchell. 

The SCOL game leaves four remaining for MHS, including a make-up game with the Red Raiders on Monday, Oct. 11 at 7 p.m. at McClain Field. 
"We played very well, and London came to play," MHS coach Shawn Jackson said.
"We told our kids we were OK, and we played tough and played with heart." 
Jackson talked about it being a defensive game. 

"This was a well-played defensive game," he said. "They (LHS) held us. This was just a back-and-forth game."
