Lancaster Mennonite & Cocalico clashed in a typical, aggressive boys soccer battle between these Section 3 foes! Eagles defense held as long as they could but the Blazers squeaked by with a 1-0 victory… winning the Section 3 Title outright! Here are the highlights!
Manheim Central’s History-Making run in the PIAA State Playoffs came to an end Sunday! Lady Barons fell 49-34 to West York in the 5A Girls 2nd Round! Lady Barons' Maddie Knier led ALL scorers with 18 points, but it wasn’t enough as 4 Bulldogs scored in double-figures! Manheim Central finished the season 20-8, with a Section 3 Co-Championship, a 4th place finish in District 3 & the First EVER State Playoff win in program history!
EXCITING Section 2 Showdown on the mats between Elizabethtown & Cocalico! Eagles led most of the match, but needed late heroics to pick up their 1st win of the season 36-32 over the Bears!

Ephrata powered thru brutal, windy conditions to get the offense going as the Lady Mounts picked up their first win in Section 1 play... beating Conestoga Valley 13-2!

Both players are over 30 goals apiece for Ephrata this season (Warner: 34 Goals -- Clement: 32 Goals)!
