Gray Stone soccer claims YVC title, tops E. Montgomery

By Charles Curcio, Sports Editor

Sunday, November 1, 2009 Postponed for 24 hours by rain, the Gray Stone men’s soccer team had to wait an extra day before their showdown with top-ranked East Montgomery.

The Knights would get an early lead and never trail in winning the Yadkin Valley Conference championship 2-1 over the Eagles.

Senior goalkeeper Hunter Harvey made six crucial saves, allowing just one goal in the win for Gray Stone (15-2).

One save in particular was huge when Harvey used a diving stretch to pin the ball on the goal line early in the match, preventing East from going up early.

Senior Mike Wall scored on an assists from Jacob Earnhardt in the 30th minute for a 1-0 Knights lead. Hans Honer gave Gray Stone a cushion two minutes before halftime with a goal, assisted by junior Andrew Parks.

Luis Ascencio scored in the 50th minute, assisted by Marco Salazar, to cut the lead to a goal.

"East Montgomery is a strong team and they came to play. We were just able to capitalize on our opportunities, which is the life lesson in sports. Be present. Be ready with an answer when opportunity knocks,” Gray Stone head coach Jeff Morris said..

“I’m proud of our kids. They have worked hard and deserve this. Now we look on to the state playoffs and take everything one match at a time."
