  "account": "Calci Douglas secured the regional championship trophy for the Brownsburg Bulldogs on Saturday, marking the team's first regional title in 16 years. The underdog team, which posted a 9-7-4 record this season, overcame a scoreless 80-minute regulation to win a 4-2 penalty-kick shootout against No. 7 Noblesville. Douglas broke the tie with a decisive goal during overtime. Coach Josh George revealed that the team's transformation came about when they moved a goalkeeper, now their leading scorer and assist leader, to the field. Senior Lorianne West started the year as the primary goalkeeper, but later transitioned to striker, while freshman Vivian Devis shined in goal, making five saves. The team's chemistry and dedication, fueled by their club soccer backgrounds, paid off in their improbable playoff run.",
