Berlin Boys Varsity Soccer Sinks Waterford, Heatly

By

 Berlin 1, Waterford 0
Waterford and Berlin fought out another close contest on Thursday, October 11, with both teams playing well defensively and somehow trying to find the offensive finish. Much of the game was played between the 18s, with both sides having trouble combining for a good shot on goal. The game was decided with about 30 seconds to go in the second overtime, when the Mountaineers’ Cody Seel lofted a ball over one Waterford defender outside the 18 and the ball dropped to Jacob Mills alongside the last Fordian defender. Mills settled the ball and held off the defender and slid the ball past the keeper for the last gasp win. Berlin’s Sakan Sadowsky and Waterford’s Josh Orton were the standouts in the game. Both teams played well in this close contest.
