FC Somers Razors of the Westchester Youth Soccer League (WYSL) edged the Lake Grove Rampage of the Long Island Junior Soccer League (LIJSL) in a shootout, 5-4, to win the Boys-Under-14 State Open Cup earlier this month.
A scoreless tie lasted through regulation and overtime before FC Somers’ Daniel Veliz, Christian Shkreli, Joey Landicino, Jordan Fein and Colin Murphy converted their kicks.
“The Lake Grove defense was superb,” FC Somers coach Alan Brady said.
FC Somers will represent the Eastern New York Youth Soccer Association (ENYYSA) at the Regionals from June 28 to July 2 at the University of Rhode Island. Eastern New York is donating $2,000 to the team and paying all expense fees for the Regionals.
