Maple Grove tied it up midway in the second half by Wyatt Chriest and assisted by Jack Novotny. Chriest, however, called his goal prior to coming into the game.

“What’s special about Wyatt’s goal is that we were down in the second half and Wyatt said, ‘I will score a goal in the second half.’ I said, ‘You better.’ And he scored; it was great.”

The game went into overtime with it being 1-all. However, the Red Dragons were quick to finish it as Ben Cresanti scored six minutes in with an assist by Novotny.

Sam Cummings was in net for Maple Grove and made 16 saves.

“He did a fantastic job,” Maple Grove coach Cara Abbey said. “He stopped everything he needed to.”

Carter D’Agostino was the goaltender for the Hillbillies, as he recorded 10 saves on the night.

Maple Grove will host Westfield on Friday, while Fredonia hosts Ellicottvile on Friday.

NORTH COLLINS 1, SILVER CREEK 0

NORTH COLLINS — With the game on the line, North Collins’ Mike Gullo netted a penalty kick in the 72nd minute to put the Eagles ahead and ultimately, win the game over Silver Creek in CCAA Central high school boys soccer play.

“The game had a lot of different personalities,” North Collins coach Jay Walters said. “North Collins had great control for 60 percent, however, 40 percent was really back and forth. Silver Creek had a very large squad and they did some substitutions and it took awhile for them to find their game.

“As the season progresses, I feel they will find their stride,” he said of Silver Creek.

Walters admitted his team is smaller and their consistency reflected that as the team got into the groove to keep possession and earn the penalty kick that won the game.

In net for North Collins was Anthony Novoa, who had five saves in the shutout.

For Silver Creek, Jeremey Wilcox was the goaltender with five saves as well.

Senior TJ Jimerson is the primary penalty kick striker, although he felt his teammate Gullo had a great opportunity to top off a solid game on the field.

“We have failed on a previous penalty kick,” Walters said. “Our primary guy urged Mike Gullo to take it. He (Jimerson) is a senior and has good leadership. He wanted Gullo to take it.”

North Collins record is 1-2 overall and 1-0 league, while Silver Creek is 0-2, 0-1.

North Collins will travel to Frewsburg on Monday with the game to start at 5.
