Selinsgrove wins boys soccer opener over Midd-West

By: Selinsgrove Athletics | PIAA District IV | September 16, 2020

MIDDLEBURG - The schedule makers for the Pennsylvania Heartland Athletic Conference-Division I did defending District 4 Class 3A boys soccer champion Selinsgrove very little favors to open the 2020 season.

The Seals first two games of the season are Midd-West and Lewisburg.

In the first of those two matchups,  Selinsgrove made two goals in the first 10 minutes stand up as the Seals beat Snyder County-rival Midd-West, 5-3 in a night game on the turf at Sports Boosters Athletic Park. 

Matt Gilfert sent a free kick into the box that Nick Ritter converted 5:31 into the game, before two minutes later, Noah Derr scored off a corner kick. Owen Magee picked up the assist for Selinsgrove.

Nick Eppley scored for the Mustangs late in the first half, giving the Seals a 2-1 lead at the break.

Magee would score to open the second half off a Derr assist to make it 3-1, before Kyle Ruhl scored the first of his two second-half goals to make it 4-1. Jamison Bohner got the assist for Selinsgrove.

Selinsgrove led in shots (11-9) and corners (6-3). Cole Catherman had seven saves in net for the Seals.

Midd-West drops to 1-1-1.
