Dimond girls stun South in double overtime, while South boys complete unbeaten season at state soccerThe Dimond girls soccer team celebrates after scoring the only goal of the team's 1-0 win over South High at the championship game of the Alaska Division I girls soccer title game on Saturday, May 26, 2024 at Wasilla High.
Both teams had opportunities throughout regulation, and even in the first overtime. The two clearly exhausted teams appeared headed to a shootout until Seibert connected with Sullivan. The Lynx went wild after the goal but the teams still had to play out the remainder of the second overtime.“We work on it quite often and throughout the season,” Seibert said. “We talked about it and were like ‘It’s connecting. It’s going to happen.
As the game went scoreless through 80 minutes of regulation, Dimond head coach Will Lucero said the lumps his team took in the regular season made the Lynx more resilient. “Everybody since the beginning of the season wanted to beat us,” South junior Dawit Hoffman said. “We still wanted that championship. ... I’m glad we put all that effort in to stay undefeated.”
South’s defense was especially impressive throughout the game as Colony had very few legitimate scoring opportunities.
