Can current employer tell potential employers not to hire me?

I have been looking and interviewing with my industry for months when a great opportunity came my way. I interviewed for it and did great (potential employer words). A couple of weeks go by and I send a follow-up email to HR asking if any decisions had been made and if so and I didn't get the position then how can I make myself more suitable in their eyes. The HR rep from the potential employer emailed me back and said I was not lacking in any area and that my current employer told the potential employer not to recruit/hire their people. Is this legal? I know I have a non-compete in place but it is for a competitor. This potential employer is not a competitor.
