Altamont Soccer Falls at Hillsboro in Season Opener

Altamont soccer suffered a tough loss, 5-0, as they opened up their 2025 season on the road at Hillsboro.

The Indians unfortunately were unable to put a stop to the Hillsboro offense, giving up three goals in the second half and taking the 5-0 loss. In the JV game, the Indians grabbed 3-1 win getting a pair of goals from Micah Tenpenny and another goal from Landen Parker. The Indians will be back in action on Wednesday when they play their first two games at the Charleston Red/Gold Tournament, facing Effingham at 4:30pm and then taking on Newton at 6:00pm.
