Corrections
CUMBERLAND — Fort Hill midfielder Shaolin Murray (No. 6) was incorrectly identified in the photograph from Wednesday night’s Bishop Walsh-Fort Hill boys soccer game that appeared in Thursday’s sports section.
Also, the Northern boys soccer team defeated Southern on Wednesday, 3-2. The headline incorrectly identified Southern as the winner of the match. The story appears again in today’s high school boys soccer round-up.
The Times-News regrets the errors.
