Dylan Evans scored with under two minutes remaining as the Staples boys soccer team defeated McMahon 1-0 on Monday in a makeup game in Westport.
According to the team's website, Evans was hit in the face with the ball moments before registering the game's only goal. He then found the back of the net with a left-footed shot from a bad angle.

"Sometimes you’re good. Sometimes you’re lucky,” Staples coach Dan Woog said. "Today we did not play well. We were very lucky. But we’ll take this kind of luck."
The Staples football team, which rallied from a 14-point deficit in the fourth quarter to stun McMahon 24-21 on a last-second field goal, slipped one spot to No. 7 in this week's New Haven Register top 10 state media poll.
Xavier (3-0, 13 first-place votes) leapfrogged Masuk (3-0, 12) back into the No. 1 spot. The teams may jockey for the top ranking all year.
Ansonia (3-0) climbed over New Canaan (3-0), which needed a strong fourth quarter to defeat Fairfield Warde 28-14, into the No. 3 spot.
Completing the poll are: No. 5 Hand (3-0), No.6 New London (2-0), which routed Greenwich, 51-33, Staples (3-0), No. 8 Windsor (3-0) No. 9 West Haven (3-0) and No. 10 Bunnell (3-0), which was unranked last week.
Two other FCIAC teams -- No. 11 Trumbull (2-0) and No. 15 Darien (3-0) - is on the verge of cracking the top 10.
