I'll take a shot on goal, but Blaine called Fleiss there to stop and he was able to jump on the ball before he got hurt later. Athens with a free kick. Jaden Mackowski, opportunity puts him high, but he called Fleisch. West with a free kick chance of his own, Finn Durban will take it with a big boot but Jason Kemp catches it right in the barn, we didn't score at half, second half action now Troy Athens chance at free kick myth Tory puts her leg to the top left corner, this one passed Athens' cold cut up 1 nil later and it's another Mackowski free kick, this one is long and going to hang in the air for a while. called flies and knocks him down, then Gavin Michael goes to take the header from Collin's board, he steps towards the goal, Paul siak takes him out, causing a penalty kick for the Titans board. will take the PK knows exactly where to put it we're even at one with just under 14 minutes to go fast forward to time touring Athens hoping to make a move Renauld with one stop is redirected to Donovan strong puts a left foot in him cold meat able to get a piece and deflected away we were heading into overtime tied at one as happened on d3 1 overtime not enough we needed a second deal from Davis Shivani feeds it to Ryan Kruger keeps him off cold flights picks up and buries it back in the net Troy assets up 1 and Redhawks continue to red hot this is two minutes later grew KO with corner kick bounces off the net xishi Kali there - knocking home Athens up 3 to 1 now 2 minutes later Athens jack Musto goes to clear the ball under a leg of Titans Ryan Kruger able to chase him down and find the back of Troy Twine's half scoring three goals in the second overtime to claim his first state championship in 22 years final score 4 to 1 I was super proud of them, you know, we had talked a lot about football being a game of moments in a game of momentum and I thought early in the second half we had a lot of pressure on their goal.
He scored the goal on the free kick and then they came back with the penalty kick and I think our kids for the first time this season maybe got a little nervous it's overwhelming right now we've been working on this for over four years to be in Athens that we have been dreaming of. this moment playing together for probably eight nine years so we finally got to do it last year we had a really successful season we went undefeated in the regular season but we got cut early in district so this all came in the summer with the the mentality that we went out there, we played even better, we worked harder and then the offseason and every single one of us worked hard in the offseason early in the morning at 7:00 a.m. the state championship is indescribable there's a lot going on obviously the excitement that we want to play but there's excitement that the seniors are leaving it was our last game of the year but it was good it was a good way I've been dreaming about that moment all my life this is not the moment not a lot of people go through it a lot especially with all my team they are right behind me and much more i think i was sure to go to a regional final i had that with that same mentality i got the goal and I think my team has always helped me that counts too so when I got in there I thought I wasn't good at it and that's what happened he sees an immense heat that he has on the back of your always on your dagger , stay safe no matter what happens you know it's going to be safe and just having this guy as a leader I think he's always welcome inside the state champion studio I just got a chance to watch Division three Division one highlights big games both give stick rad here join me as we break it down a bit first talk about division three adams ski basket grow seal turned out huge was kind of a goalie tournament if you can to stop grand rapids south christian and if you got help from the posts or not the bottom line is to grow seal our state

yeah just another great performance by a goaltender and you saw all year there was such a great collection of goaltenders michigan state missed their seniors and juniors getting they stood out and when there is so much parity in the state of Michigan in certain divisions where there are so many teams there that even the goaltender many times as a side effect or an inch play make that key save in a regional finals or state finals shootout and that it makes a difference in the end i know and after falling in the division three final hudsonville christian unit in overtime last year to come back and again you're in something as tight as it gets and you get your second title ever of the program because it had been a while since they won one yes 2002 and since a lot of those kids weren't even born yet the last time they won and the girls hallmark has always been strong down the river program yes they have been scoring a lot of goals in recent years, but their defense was a strong point all season for them and they actually played summer league over the summer with a few schools from Oakland and Macomb County.
I was about to get stronger for the season. I think it paid dividends here, Leon, yeah, and I think probably when you see teams going that extra mile to figure out that you know some really strong competitive competition in the summer. I think you know it's all worth it. in november yeah and they are a team used to winning there was only two losses in august and i think 9/7 was the last one they really lost and shootouts in a couple of weekend tournaments those shortened games so it was literally almost almost two months without losing an amazing streak my girls have no doubt about it in Division one in one of the really cool things is the fact that when you get a chance as a coach to win a state title it's amazing when you have the chance to win a state title as a coach at your alma mater which is even more amazing when you have the chance to win a state title as a player that Todd Hugh won in Troy Athens in the '80s and win a state championship then and win one now It's his fifth title being Troy Athens which is great but his first since 1997 yeah it's been 22 years and that was under legendary director of athletics and storage unit head coach tim at alpena yeah but todd hugh heat actually took over rochester high about 20 years ago and his team was steady i mean he was runner up to the girls in 2007 it's 2002 the boys at rochester were state champions in d1 and then troy athens came along to the semi-finals on the women's side in 2015 and then 2016 they lost to East Kentwood in a shootout in the final so she has a track record of getting the best performance out of her team for the tournament run and it's interesting football if you're talking about changes of momentum you know this is a tight game we ran over time here and all of a sudden the Red Hawks just find a way to find the back of the net frequently yeah like an erupting volcano yeah Athens , in the district final last year, they outscored Utica by EE 21-5 and lost one to nothing on a free kick from the lake, do you think that was it? in mine a lot of those early players I think they had 13 guys back maybe freshman teams only lost like a game or two last year so the talent was there they ran the gauntlet they won another or a red division title and then you know stay warm throughout the tournament and score three goals in the last nine minutes of second overtime to prevail, that's right, I have no doubt, so Dan, thanks for being here.
At this year's edition of the 2019 Boys' Soccer State Championships, we'll be doing this for all sports, so be sure to keep checking back for the state champion network. every day again hope you enjoy this and see you next C date opportunity in state finals is presented by City of Lawrence Technological University where blue devils dare also presented by Lawrence High School Athletic Association Michigan who promotes the value and values ​​of educational athletics and hungry Holly is famous for her flavor
