Game MPSSAA Class 2A Girls Soccer States of round Round 3

Last night Mount Hebron won their 2nd state title in school history after their previous title win in 2021. Hebron and Century both had very strong defenses keeping the game at a stalemate through regular time and both overtime periods. Both teams were mentally ready for PK’s to begin. Senior Pearl Prasartkarnka was in goal for the Vikings while Senior Megan Taltavull was in goal for the Knights. Century started the PK’s with Junior Ryley Poe. Prasartkarnka makes a statement immediately saving the first shot. First for the Vikings is Sophomore Sarah Corb. Corb doesn’t even give Taltavull a chance and places her shot top right corner giving the Vikings a 1-0 lead. Century Sophomore Cassie Plitt was up next. Plitt placed the ball towards the bottom right but Prasartkarnka wasn’t going to allow it, getting a hand on it keeping Hebron up 1-0. Junior Sam Bucchioni steps up and replicates Corb’s shot to put the Vikings up 2-0. Senior Raegan Edwards tries to cut the deficit for the Knights. She placed her shot towards the right hand corner but it was no match for Prasartkarnka pushing it out keeping the score 2-0. Next Junior Grace Garvin was up to try and seal the deal for the Vikings. Garvin steps up but her shot is saved by Taltavull keeping the score 2-0. Up next Century looks to get one on the board placing a shot to the top right making the score 1-2. With the chance to give Hebron a state title once again Senior Maddie McShea was up. The stadium was so quiet you could hear a pin drop, until McShea sent Taltavull the wrong way sending the Mount Hebron section erupting into cheers. Congratulations Vikings!
