These boys have nothing to be ashamed of, and we will miss them all very much. A hard lesson today, the ball doesn't always bounce your way. A team that SSHS will always remember. Good luck to all the seniors. To the underclassmen, may this light the fire for next year. (2/2)

This field has been like a fortress for our boys.

The magical 2023 season comes to an end after a 1-2 overtime loss to Shaker. The boys have nothing to be ashamed of as they moved the ball around wonderfully all match, trying to skilfully carve out chances. It's very unfortunate that the beautiful game did not win today. (1/2)

WATCH: In the other Class AAA Semifinal game between Saratoga and CBA, @TogaAthletics kept their perfect season in tact.

The Blue Streaks win 2-0 and we now have a rematch of last year's title game: Shaker vs. Saratoga for the Class AAA crown.

[Blue Streak Soccer @upthestreaks]

Men of the Match in the Class AAA semifinal v. CBA. BVV makes big saves in net. Dean patrols the back line. Ruscio is a work horse in the midfield. Spain scores off the bench. Farr with the brace.

@TogaAthletics

[Blue Streak Soccer @upthestreaks]

Ryan Farr bags 2 goals in the 3-1 Blue Streak win over CBA to earn a spot in the Section 2 Class AAA Championship. Andrew Spain scored as well while Jacob Paro & Andre Culpepper-Wehr assisted. The back line did a great job dealing with the potent CBA attack.

WATCH: Our High School Player of the Week winner is @TogaAthletics Xavier Ruscio. In a rematch of the Class AA Sectional Title Game against Shaker last week, Ruscio hit the equalizer on a highlight-reel free kick goal.

His goal saved 'Toga from their 1st loss of the season.
