U-16 Girls Victorious
in US Club Soccer Championship

(Courtesy of the D&C)

August 2, 2007) — Late-game leads haven't been kind to the Rochester Junior Rhinos U16 Elite girls soccer team.

So when Veronica Santiago drilled home a 22-yard shot into the upper post three minutes into the second overtime of the U.S. Club Soccer National Championship game, the team couldn't be blamed for feeling uneasy.

Sarah Henderson erased any doubts with a goal off a corner kick three minutes later to seal the win as the Junior Rhinos defeated the Arsenal/World Class Hawks (New Jersey) 2-0 to take home the championship in the Super Group Tuesday night at Bryan Park in Greensboro, N.C.

"It was a big goal for us," Santiago, an Aquinas junior, said by phone of her goal that snapped a scoreless tie in the team's final game of the season. "I took a couple of dribbles, got into position and hit it to the far upper-post. There was no way the goalie was going to stop it. At first I didn't think it was going in because my angle was way off, but the ball bent into the upper post and I was really surprised it went in."

The Junior Rhinos team led 2-0 in each of its first two round-robin games, only to surrender the lead en route to a pair of ties. (More)
