OXFORD â Senior day for the Vance Charter menâs soccer team went on with minimal issues on the field, as stellar play from their defense and senior goalkeeper Collin Montgomery resulted in a 3-0 shutout over East Wake Academy on Monday.
Head coach Johnny Yount credited his class of five seniors for the work theyâve put in to make Vance Charter a competitive program the last few years.
He singled out Collin as a key part of that transformation, whose father in state trooper Brent Montgomery remains hospitalized with a serious case of COVID-19.
âIt was a really nice day,â Yount said. âI really wanted to get this shutout for Collin after everything that young man and his family have gone through. Our prayers continue to be with them, but Iâm so happy for all these seniors. Theyâve been instrumental in putting this program on the map.â
