NY girls roll past Pennsylvania 7-1 in Gold match

BRADFORD, Pa. — It was a day of celebration Sunday for the New York players, as both the boys and girls teams took home trophies in the silver and gold matchups during the ninth annual NY/PA Corporate Cup Soccer Showcase.

In the girls Silver Game, New York defeated Pennsylvania 4-0.

Leea Kopp (Olean) scored the only goal of the first half and added another early in the second. Jaden Dunbar (Wellsville) tallied New York’s third goal, and Emily Stuck (Wellsville) followed with the fourth to secure the Silver trophy.

Before the Gold Game, four-year participation plaques were awarded. Representing New York were Addie Fisher, Abby Peck and Chloe Baker (all of Allegany-Limestone), and Cloey Larabee (Cuba-Rushford). Pennsylvania recipients included Kailey Bartlett (Port Allegany), Josie Orinko and Zoe Puhala (both of Brockway), and Ally Notarianni (Johnsonburg).

New York’s Gold team cruised to a 7-1 win over Pennsylvania.

In the opening minutes, both goalkeepers — Orinko for Pennsylvania and Baker for New York — came up with key saves. Kylie Kress (Maple Grove) broke through with a goal at 36:38 to give New York a 1-0 lead.

Rheanna Spinda (Brockway) tied the score at 1-1 at the 22:01 mark, slipping a shot past Baker. But New York responded quickly, as Peck scored to regain the lead at 2-1.

Kress added her second goal with 1:47 remaining in the half, and Grace Gariepy (Portville) made it 4-1 just before the break.

After a defensive stretch early in the second half, Marlana Cresanti extended New York’s lead to 5-1. Larabee followed with a goal at the 25:28 mark, and Madison Honeck (Allegany-Limestone) capped the scoring with 19:15 remaining to make it 7-1.

Following the match, awards were presented for sportsmanship and most valuable player. The sportsmanship award went to Kierstin Taylor (Bradford) for Pennsylvania and Sara Kruszka (Pine Valley) for New York. MVP honors went to Puhala for Pennsylvania and Larabee for New York.
