By Ryan Moxon — Here is our weekly roundup of scores for the Hough Huskies spring sports teams.

Volleyball: Hough lost its bid for the school’s first state championship in a rematch of last year’s title game against West Forsyth. The 27-0 Titans swept the Huskies 25-19, 25-14, 25-19. Hough senior Colten Short was named MVP of the match.

Track and field: Senior Drew Johnson took silver in the boys 800 meters and senior Aiden Malloy set a new Hough record in the 3,200 meters with a time of 9:39.48, finishing eighth in the final heat. The boys 4×400 meter relay team of sophomore Kylan Bright, and seniors Luke Patton, Christian Carter and Drew Johnson, took gold in a controversial finish. The team from Mallard Creek crossed the finish line first but was disqualified for unsportsmanlike conduct in a moment that generated discussion in the national sports media.

Girls soccer: Hough was knocked out of the playoffs this week after a 2-0 loss to Myers Park. The Huskies advanced past the second round by beating Ardrey Kell 4-0 on Monday.

Boys lacrosse: Top-seeded Hough was upset in the third round of the playoffs by fourth-seeded Green Level, which won the game in the final minutes by a score of 11-10. The Huskies advanced past the second round last Friday with an 18-8 victory over Myers Park.

Girls lacrosse: Hough lost 16-6 to Myers Park in the second round of the playoffs.

Senior Awards: Goalie Riley Pickels and cornerback Samari Matthews were named the female and male Athletes of the Year during the annual Senior Awards Ceremony. Pickels is headed to N.C. State to play soccer and Matthews will join the University of Texas football team.
