An incredible game in Iowa City as @WbhsBoysSoccer scores the golden goal with 13 seconds left in OT.

🍔 THIS WEDNESDAY NIGHT 🍔
It’s @ShortsEastside Community Night! Short’s Burgers will be sharing 15% of ALL proceeds with the West Branch track programs! Let’s reciprocate their support of area athletic & extracurricular activities by making dinner plans for Wednesday at Shorts!
With 13 seconds left in the second overtime, Joe Hamann puts it in the back of the net to end the game 2-1. A fantastic game that you would expect from a number 1 vs number 2.
A special, bittersweet moment for one of our seniors, Nina Torkelson.

Nina competed in her final events as a Bear at the RVC Meet yesterday. No better way than going out with a lifetime PR in the 1500 & running a PR split in the 4x800. Thanks for your leadership, Nina. 🐻❤️
