The Allderdice Boys Soccer team played their home opener at Cupples Stadium this past week against section rival Penn Trafford. The Dragons took a first-half lead with a spectacular long-range strike from junior midfielder Ethan Voight-Cherna, an early contender for goal of the season. However, a late defensive error resulted in a 1-1 draw. The team quickly rebounded the next night, taking on top-5 ranked Montour on the road. Allderdice dominated with patient possession, finally breaking through in overtime when senior Aidan Thomas scored the winner, assisted by a driving run from forward Dan Mrsic. Goalkeeper Ozan Matveiev earned a shutout against the previously undefeated Spartans with a stellar backline performance shielding his box from danger, securing a major non-section victory and putting the Dragons on the WPIAL radar as we head into September.
