PENNSVILLE — Brant Regner didn’t know if he was ever going to score a goal in his high school soccer career, but he finally broke through Monday on a night made just for him.
Regner, Justin Michaca and Lochlann Hooks all had a Senior Night to remember in Pennsville’s much-needed 3-0 victory over Salem Tech under the lights of Lou D’Angelo Stadium.
Regner, a defender, scored the first goal of his high school career after fielding a corner kick by Lucas Cooksey to open the scoring. Michaca capped the Eagles’ relentless attack with their third goal. And Hooks, a four-year player in the program finally getting his chance to start, scored the shutout.
“It was really special to me,” Regner said. “I haven’t scored since probably middle school, seventh grade year, so I’m super excited about my first goal after four, five years, however long it was. I’ve been wanting to score since my freshman year and I made it.”
“It had eyes,” Eagles coach Derek Foglein said. “It found the hole it was supposed to find.”
The Eagles were playing their first game since a 3-0 loss at Penns Grove 11 days ago,. They showed little signs of being rusty as they kept constant pressure on Chargers’ keeper Aiden Bobo. The senior keeper was credited with 22 saves.
Regner’s goal was the only tally of the first half. Sam Hassler gave the Eagles a 2-0 lead in the 51st minute and Michaca made it 3-0 about 10 minutes later.
“The last game we played was losing at Penns Grove on their Senior Night, so for us being able to hit the reset button was super important,” Foglein said. “The guys did a great job tonight of connecting, moving the ball, playing as a team and hitting the reset button.
“They came out right from the get=go and they moved the ball like they were supposed to. I’m very happy with the performance. It’s a good team performance. We got a lot of people involved and that’s because we connected and moved the ball well.”
PENNS GROVE 2, GLASSBORO 2: David Adu’s header off a free kick with five seconds left in regulation sent the match into overtime. Dominique Tino scored the Red Devils’ first goal. Jesus Arredondo kept the Bulldogs out of the net in overtime after replacing injured Ruben Torres Saenz in goal. Saenz (11) and Arredondo combined for 14 saves.
