Presque Isle area recreation news
The championship game for the fifth- and sixth-grade soccer league proved to be a classic showdown as the No. 3 Clash downed the fourth-seeded Mutiny, 2-1.
The game started as a great fight with both teams pounding the goalies. Pat Cash of the Mutiny made nine saves on 11 shots in the net while Colin Daigle of the Clash made seven saves on eight shots. The Clash’s Ryle Mortland scored both of his team’s goals with one being assisted by Jordan Bonville. Gavin Kelley of the Mutiny made a nice shot off a corner kick for the only Mutiny goal.
