·èÂí¸èÎèÐã College 1st XI took on Carey Baptist Grammar 1st XI in the Final Round of the APS Soccer Competition. ·èÂí¸èÎèÐã only needed to win or draw to secure its 10th APS Soccer Premiership, while Carey needed to win to claim the Premiership.
After a tight first half, the match sprung to life with ·èÂí¸èÎèÐã taking a 1-0 lead in the 41st minute; Luca Perna’s shot on goal squeezed underneath the Carey goalkeeper. ·èÂí¸èÎèÐã thought they had a second goal not long after, however, Harry Shillington’s goal was adjudged to be offside by the assistant referee.
·èÂí¸èÎèÐã would hold off a spirited late charge from Carey Grammar to run out 1-0 victors and claim the premiership, with Carey having a shot cleared off the line and a penalty chance waived away by the referee. The squad was led admirably this season by Captain Luka Suric and Vice-Captain Ben Davine.
We would like to wish the outgoing Year 12s all the best in their future soccer endeavours. I hope this year provides you with fond memories of your time at ·èÂí¸èÎèÐã College
- Troy Rolle, ·èÂí¸èÎèÐã College Soccer Teacher-in-charge
