 The third time was the charm as yesterday the Bemidji Boys Soccer program defeated Montimide 1-0 in the state quarter finals to advance to the semis next week to be played at U.S. Bank Stadium. It was the Silas S. Goal in the sixth minute that turned out to be the winner as the Jacks withstood heated pressure to secure the win. The ball got knocked around a little bit. Ben had a beautiful touch off his side I believe and I hit it in. In there, perfect ball across and ultimately it was just an easy finish for me. I didn't do much. This is our third tournament in a row. We've been unseated all three years. We've been to penalty kicks. We've been to overtime. This time we get a 1-0 win. We knew where we were. We're fine. We're very happy and we're confident coming in. They threw everything they had us in the last 15 and give them credit. That's a good team that we played against and we just dodged a few bullets and came out on top. It's a great feeling. This has always been our goal ever since we were young and now our dream has come to become a reality and we're just so pumped for it. The boys will take on unbeaten holy angels in the semifinals next Tuesday at 6. They made it there by defeating Worthington 2-0 yesterday in their quarter-final matchup.
