  "account": "Carmel Greyhounds, the defending Class 3A state champions, secured their fifth shutout of the season by defeating No. 18 Brownsburg 1-0 in the regional title game. The Greyhounds, ranked outside the top 20 entering the tournament, entered the game with 10 shutout wins. Senior Angelo Doria scored the lone goal in the 13th minute with a well-placed free kick, rising above the reach of Brownsburg's goalkeeper. Brownsburg outshot Carmel 12-3 in the first half, but senior goalkeeper Robert Morgan's seven saves, including a crucial one in the 35th minute, kept the score at 1-0. Carmel's defensive strategy, as emphasized by coach Shane Schmidt, paid off, with Doria stating, \"We like defense.\" This victory added to Carmel's impressive postseason run, including wins over No. 17 Noblesville and No. 11 North Central.",
