OAK LAWN, IL — When facing Shepard in an important South Suburban Conference Red boys soccer game, senior Tristan Kramarz reached into his bag of tricks and found a hat trick to help the Spartans earn a crucial 4-4 draw. The three-goal game was impressive, and he has continued his great play to this point.

Kramarz leads Oak Lawn Community High School in goals with 14 through the first eight games. He is also second on the team in assists with five.

“On that occasion against Shepard, He sparked a second-half comeback that saw him win a penalty and subsequently score it before netting a diving header as well,” OLCHS head coach Nate Joiner said. “Throughout the season, Tristan’s well-rounded game has been on display for all to see. His defensive headers on opposing teams’ set-pieces as well as his link-up play with his back to the goal have both been phenomenal for Oak Lawn.”
