MIDDLEBURGH — Schoharie would travel cross-town to Middleburgh for the Knight's homecoming celebration. An intense game from start to finish found these two teams evenly matched in every category.

Final score was 0-0 after two overtimes: 7 shots each, Corners were 4 each, and even free kicks were 8-7.

While many players for each side had great games, including Steven Delaet and Hunter Nelson for the Knights, and Benjamin Bengtson and Sebastian Clemente for the Storm, the Man of the Match had to be Middleburgh's goalkeeper, Robert Narzymski who made at minimum three incredible top corner saves to keep the game scoreless. Furthermore, his distribution of long balls with accuracy gave his team plenty of attacking chances.

While a draw is not what either team was expecting, it was certainly well deserved for both teams.

Special thanks to Prince Knight for the information.
