Congrats to Tony Skowronek of the Eagles U17's and Drew Basil of Metro Rapids U17's, both play for Chillicothe, for making it to the final State Cup match to be held on Sunday at Clear Creek. I believe Darian Lopez, of Unioto, also plays for the Metro Rapids and will play in the State final tom also. Good Luck to both teams and congrats for making it to the finals. Congrats to Chillicothe for having 2 outstanding players that make a difference beyond the high school teams to the club teams that is playing for #1 in the State.

Congrats To Tony Skowronek.... You are not a State Cup Champion!!!!! Congrats also to Drew Basil and Darian Lopez on a well played game. Eagles up 1 to 0 at half time and then went up 3 to 0. Metro Rapids came back to tie it up 3 to 3 and then Eagles player received a red card making Eagles go into OT with a man down. At the end of OT, game still tied. After PK's, Eagles win. Nice to see local players succeed.
