Clearview senior goalie Connor Bowers made two clutch saves in the shootout. Washington Township’s final attempt after Gahan’s goal sailed over the net.
“As the keeper, I’m always going to blame goals on myself,” Bowers said. “When that ball goes in and I see them rally around me and believe in me, that’s what keeps me going. That’s why I love this team so much, because everybody believes in each other and has a genuine love for everybody else. It’s one of the greatest soccer environments I’ve ever been around.”
Gahan came close to ending the game in double OT, the first time on a free kick and the second on a corner.
