Mortimer Jordan sophomore Jordan Lett (5) kicks the ball on Friday night in a shutout win over Class 5A, Area 12 foe Fairview. 

KIMBERLY — The Mortimer Jordan soccer program honored its seniors on Friday night in Jimmie Trotter Stadium.

The girls team, which beat Fairview 6-0 on senior night, has four seniors on its roster. Shelby Marlow, Allison Jones, Breanna Barber and Savannah Sinclair have each played for the Blue Devils since the program was born in 2015. For the boys, Jose Gonzalez, Jacob Nix and Will Lawrence make up this year’s senior class.

Girls: Mortimer Jordan 6, Fairview 0

Mortimer Jordan started fast, pushing a goal through in the opening moments of the match to set the tone in what became a 6-0 drubbing of Class 5A, Area 12 foe Fairview.

Freshman Mackynzie Watson scored from the corner just two minutes into the area match. Sophomore Hope Rye later found the net with 17:40 left in the second half, ending things at 6-0. She accepted a pass just left of the box and skipped it off the keeper for a six-goal lead.

Senior Breanna Barber also finished with two goals for the home team. Both shots came in the first half to give Mortimer Jordan a 3-0 edge at the break. Her first make went high and off the fingertips of Fairview’s keeper nearly 20 minutes into the match. Eight minutes later, Barber dribbled into the center of the box, fought through traffic and rolled her second goal left of the keeper.

Mortimer Jordan started the second half just as quickly, as 8th-grader Kelsey Esco sent one in less than two minutes after the clock started. At the 25-minute mark, Barber crossed an assist to sophomore Allie Brazier, who beat the keeper in traffic.

The Blue Devils worked their way to 20 shots on goal while Fairview struggled to create opportunities on the offensive end, ending the match with one clean shot on goal.

Boys: Mortimer Jordan 3, Fairview 0

Much like the girls team, the Mortimer Jordan boys controlled tempo and possession for most of the night. They took 19 shots on goal in a 3-0 win over Fairview last Friday.

Freshman Eli Gooch paced the offense with two goals. He drew first blood with a goal in the 14th minute and later drove in the last goal of the night from 50 yards out.

Gooch also crossed a corner kick to senior Will Lawrence for a 2-0 lead with 13:17 remaining in the match. Lawrence’s heel tap came less than a minute before Gooch’s 50-yard bomb.
