Creek falls 1-0 to St. Ignatius in D-I boys soccer final
COLUMBUS — After a sensational run through the Division I boys soccer playoffs, Beavercreek’s dream of a state title ended on the pristine pitch of Crew Stadium.
In a battle of the state’s top-ranked teams, Beavercreek fell 1-0 in the title match Friday night to No. 1 Cleveland St. Ignatius.
St. Ignatius senior captain Denio Leone had the only goal, scoring with a decisive strike from in close in the 38th minute.
Beavercreek (20-2-1) was never able to control the flow of play. But with 26 minutes in the second half, they began to push forward in an effort to create scoring chances. The Beavers’ best chance to equalize came with just a minute remaining when Omotunji Badiru sent a firm header just wide of the St. Ignatius net.
“These kids have been tremendous all year long,” said Beavercreek coach John Guiliano.
“They’ve come back two goals down, three goals down. We had our opportunities, we just couldn’t put it in tonight.”
The trip to the state final was the second in Beavercreek’s history. They lost the final 1-0 in penalty kicks in 1990.
