With two goals from Reagan Heslin, JSerra wins the Division I title and defeats the team it lost to last year in the regional playoffs.
SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO – The JSerra boys soccer team went into its game against Birmingham on Saturday afternoon believing that if its strong defense did its job, Reagan Heslin would do the rest and the Lions would end their season with another championship.
Heslin, a senior, scored the first two goals of the match to lead the Lions to a 3-0 victory over Birmingham in the CIF Southern California Division I Regional final at JSerra High. The victory gave the Lions their first SoCal Regional title. Last week, they won the CIF-SS Division 1 title.“I couldn’t ask for anything more,” JSerra coach Erik Kirsch said of his players. “They basically have taken the program over with championship leadership. Reagan is the MaxPreps player of the Year, CIF Player of the Year. That’s why he is that guy.”
The Lions’ goal was to stop Birmingham’s strong duo of Jerry Ramos and Oscar Vargas and their defense did that, keeping them away from the net and with Noah Nesson’s nine saves. Postgame interview with Reagan Heslin of JSerra. 2 goals for Heslin as the Lions take the CIF SoCal Regional title!
