0-16 team wins playoff game!

[Salad76]

Not sure how often this kind of thing has happened...

In perhaps the game of the year, 0-16 Niles beat Alliance (7-9-1) by a score of 2-1 in OT in a D2 first round game. Niles has had just enough kids to play most games and were outscored 102-6 during the regular season.

A good friend is the coach at Niles and I'm just so happy for them. Several kids on the team my kids played rec with way back when. A true testament to perseverance and seeing things through to the end.

That is awesome - those kids will never forget that, no matter what happens in the next round.

And the reward for Niles McKinley is a trip to Poland on Saturday.

True....but they'll always have that wonderful memory to share. Winning in Golden-Goal OT ? Very special.

Yes they will

All that work Aliance put in during the week planning for their match with Poland goes down the drain.
