MEXICO — Coming in on a surge, but still likely needing to win to have a realistic shot at salvaging a winning or break-even record for the 2022 season, Chillicothe High School’s soccer Hornets were shut out 6-0 at Mexico last Saturday afternoon in non-conference action.

The survivor will take on the top-seeded host Tigers next Monday.
