Crest

“…keep the ball out of the back of our net, and put it in the back of theirs.”

~ soli Deo gloria ~

The Mount Vernon Christian Boys’ Varsity Soccer program has had several crest designs over its history.  The current Crest is the most recent rendition. It was originally adopted for the 2008 season and revised with the school-approved, cursive “MVC” in 2016. The new “HURRICANES” font was updated during the summer of 2023 to coincide with a school-wide emphasis on consistent athletic department branding. First and foremost is theCROSS,a reminder of our Savior, His sacrifice, and who, by playing with the gifts and abilities He has given, we strive to glorify.  This also represents our commitment to play for an “audience of One”. With the cross are the lettersMVCidentifying Mount Vernon Christian, the school, community, and tradition represented.  Below MVC, is the name HURRICANES,a mascot that embodies power, force, and glory all at the same time. Below HURRICANES is aSOCCER BALLsurrounded by five white stars; the ball representing the sport and theFIVE STARSeach representing major accomplishments in the program: ~first program win (1991). ~first league championship (1998) and subsequent ones (1999, 2001,2006, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017). ~first district championship (2006) and subsequent ones (2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016); also Bi or Tri-District championships (2014, 2017, 2025). ~first berth in the State Quarterfinals (2001), and subsequent ones (2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2025). ~placing in the State Final Four (2001, 2004, 2012, 2014, 2015, 2022, 2025).
