PEORIA — For the Morris soccer team, the dream season is over — yet the dream still lives on.

Playing for just the third time in school history in a sectional match, the Redskins were hoping to take the next step and finally get a win at that level. Despite playing a very close game with Morton at the Peoria Notre Dame Sectional on Tuesday, the locals came up shy of that goal by a 2-0 score.

"It's good to see this from our program. To see them compete at this level and to maintain this level of play going into the sectional," Morris coach Dave Valdivia said. "This is a step up for us. The step used to be to play well in the regional. Now we are setting our goal on state. I'm going to be looking forward to that as long as it takes."
