Quince Orchard came from behind to defeat the visiting Patriots from Wootton High School today 2-1. The Cougars got off to a slow start and had some problems with the ball in the midfield area. The Cougars gave up a goal in the 32 minute from a wind aided corner kick in by the Patriots. The first half ended with the score Patriots 1, Cougars 0.
The second half opened with a bit more aggressive play and possession by the Cougars. The defense held strong against the attacking Patriots while the midfield and forwards were starting to iron out the kinks and apply some pressure on the Patriot defensive line. Finally in the 32 minute of the second half, Junior forward Ele Margelos blasted a shot past the Patriot's keeper to level the score at 1-1. The game ended in a 1-1 tie in regulation time and went into Golden Goal OT.
In the first OT period the two teams seemed to trade attacking runs only to be brushed aside be each others defenders and midfields. In the waning moments of the 1st OT period Margelos sent s ball through to Junior midfielder Yvonne Latour who buried the ball in the back of the Patriot's goal. QO wins 2-1!
Go Cougars!
