Game report: BP 2-3 GF

Saturday September 24
Broadalbin-Perth 2-3 Glens Falls

Glens Falls notched its first win of the season with a 3-2 win over a tough Broadalbin-Perth side. The Patriots controlled much of the 1st quarter as GF were sluggish early after a long Saturday morning bus ride. But the Indians opened the scoring with one of the best team goals seen at this level in a long time. A patient 13 pass sequence in which 7 different players touched the ball was finished off when Peter Mauro slid the ball across the top of the box to Willy Herrmann who shot above the keeper. BP evened the scoring when GF couldn't deal with a corner kick and took the lead on a fluky score when mishit cross hit the post, rebounded off an Indian defender's leg and into the goal. Glens Falls kept their heads and tied the game in the last minute of the 3rd quarter when Drew Nizolek took a pass from Dylan Balcom and poked it past the keeper. Nizolek scored the winner nine minutes later when he stole a ball and curled a shot that found its way into the net. Julian Winston made 5 saves, most of which were key early stops to keep GF in the game. The backline notched a very impressive, well-organized performance too.
