One daring shot was all La Salle needed to repeat as state soccer champs

In a remarkable display of skill on Saturday afternoon, La Salle claimed back-to-back Division I soccer titles by defeating Cumberland 1-0 at Alumni Stadium. Junior midfielder Camryn Bromage was responsible for the game-winning goal, taking a shot from 35 yards out in the 15th minute of the first half. Despite coach Stephanie Goulet's initial hesitation, Bromage confidently struck the ball with her right foot, finding the back of the net despite the slippery turf and gray skies.

This victory marked La Salle's second consecutive state championship, joining the Skippers as schools to accomplish this impressive feat.
