  "account": "ORAELL – Ramsey girls soccer coach Drew Strohmeyer watched his team, wearing a blue baseball cap and smiles despite the challenges. The No. 1 team in New Jersey faced a daunting early challenge, falling behind by two goals within ten minutes. The Rams, two-time defending county champions, were on the brink of their first loss in nearly two years. However, Ramsey had an answer in store. Ramsey's coach reminded his players, \"Champions find a way,\" as they rallied to defeat fifth-seeded Old Tappan, 6-2, in the Bergen County semifinal. Ramsey improved to 15-0, extended their winning streak to 40 games, and advanced to the county final, facing either Immaculate Heart or Ridgewood. Ramsey had not lost to a Bergen County opponent since a regular-season match against Ridgewood on October 23, 2023.",
  "summary": "The No. 1 team in New Jersey had been tested physically and mentally in ways it rarely had been before. But Ramsey found a way in the BCT semifinal.",
