Conestoga Boys Soccer Wins Pennsylvania State Championships

The Conestoga High School Boys soccer team has won the Pennsylvania state championship after defeating Elizabethtown 1-0 on Saturday night.

It was Conestoga's first state championship since they took home the PIAA title in 2011.

As temperatures precipitously dropped into the 30's and snow and freezing rain poured down over the stadium in Hersheypark, the state's two top squads engaged in an epic defensive duel.

Chris Donovan was the hero of the night, scoring the game's winning goal off of a pass from teammate Logan Schwartz.

Conestoga's wins in the state tournament came over Parkland, Hempfield, and Northern Allegheny before they eventually took down Elizabethtown.

The Hempfield game was won in overtime.

The state tourney has been underway since November 8.
