Four Patroon Conference boy's soccer match ups on Wednesday with one, the Cairo-MH match up, having major implications on how the league standings may shake out as we continue on towards the midway point of the season.
Cairo Durham v. Maple Hill
The Mustangs took another step on Wednesday in proving they are a serious threat for the the Patroon Conference title this season with a 2-1 overtime victory at Maple Hill. The Wildcats struck first in the opening half before Cairo responded to even things at 1 going into the half. Less than a minute into the second OT the Mustangs netted the game winner.
David Briggs scored the games first goal 10 minutes into the game for MH. Kody Koenig tied the game with a goal from a Andy Fishman pass. The game would remain tied at one all the way until the second overtime. Less than a minute into that final OT Stephen Zwoboda scored the game winner off a pass from Chris Gagliardi.
Cory Gransbury made 6 saves in goal to earn the win for the Mustangs while Derek Van Alstyne made 4 saves for the Wildcats. Next Tuesday the Mustangs will host winless Hudson while on Friday Maple Hill will host Chatham in what should be a tight and good game.
Coxsackie Athens v. Hudson
Behind three first half goals the Indians held on to defeat Hudson 3-1 on Wednesday. Felipe Plotze netted 2 goals for C-A while Kari Ochoa scored the other. Pete Russo made 9 saves in goal for the Indians. For Hudson Ian Hunter scored for the Bluehawks while Brett Delamater had to make 19 saves.
Hudson returns to action on Friday when they host Taconic Hills, where they will have a shot to earn their first win of the year. C-A gets back into the swing of things on Friday when they look to defeat Greenville.
Catskill v. Chatham
The Panthers jumped on the Cats scoring 3 goals in the first half and holding on for a 3-0 win in Chatham on Wednesday. Cody Clifford and Willy McEachern each finished with a goal and an assist while Will Gauthier added a goal and Todd Van Alstyne finished with a pair of assists.
In goal Steve Oleynek made 8 saves for Chatham while Ricky Meyers made 15 saves for the Cats. In my opinion Oleynek is still one of the better keepers in the league and has the chance to keep getting better. Meyers plays on a weak team but continues to put up big time save numbers game in and game out.
The Cats return to action on Friday when they travel to first place ICC while the Panthers head to Maple Hill.
Taconic Hills v. Ichabod Crane
The vaunted ICC defense led by Nick Boardman at sweeper and Steve Domino in goal surrendered their first goal of the season as the Riders fell behind TH 1-0 on Wednesday. ICC responded with 2 goals of their own in the first half and added 2 more in the second to bring home a 4-1 victory.
Mitchell Albrecht scored his 4th goal of the season off a Gage Arcuri assist. Mitchell Niemeyer scored 2 goals for the Riders while Kyle Kline and Kasey Jakiela each netted one of their own. Domino made 3 saves for ICC while Jake Littman made 12 for the Titans.
