OLSH boys soccer win the WPIAL semifinal match vs. Eden Christian 1-0 in regulation. It was a back and forth game in the first half, and in the second half OLSH locked it down and applied more pressure. With 18 minutes left, Jonathan Mackin essentially ran the ball into the back of Eden's net, and it took a deflection on the way in off of an Eden defender creating an own goal. Once the goal was scored OLSH sat back and locked it up defensively. With the win, OLSH advances to the WPIAL Championship on Thursday, October 31 at Highmark Stadium (see below for game details). OLSH has also qualified for the PIAA State playoffs.
