We commemorate that auspicious event by congratulating the members of that team. 

Under the leadership of Coach Mark Gustafson, the 1978 team had a record of 6-5. They finished fourth in the Southwestern 4A Conference which was made up of all the Charlotte Mecklenburg high schools, including highly ranked Myers Park and South Mecklenburg.

Ray Hunt led the team in scoring with 12 goals. The defense was led by sweeper Mark Wardo, John Allison, and Will Allison.  Goalkeeper Larry Harrelson recorded 2 shutouts.  

Captains Brian Woodward and Scott Conger were selected to the all-conference team.

Thanks for giving soccer a great start here at Statesville High!
