No. 1 Castle boys soccer tops Bloomington South in PKs for regional title

The battle between the top two ranked boys soccer teams in Class 3A and their vaunted defenses went scoreless over regulation and overtime.

Seymour witnessed a nail-biting showdown between the top-ranked boys soccer teams in Class 3A, Castle and Bloomington South. Both teams possess formidable defenses, resulting in a scoreless game over regulation and overtime. The only decisive factor was penalty kicks, which ultimately decided the victor. Castle emerged victorious with a score of 4-3, advancing to the semi-state stage for the first time since 2021.

This win marks the Knights' (18-2-1) first regional title, putting an end to the Panthers' (15-2-3) two-year reign. Bloomington South's defense held strong, denying Castle's highly-scoring star Lucas Jurado any scoring opportunities until the very end of regulation.
