I know this is a repeat final score . . . but
Batesburg-Leesville 3 - Palmetto 2 in Overtime
Palmetto went up 1-0 with a great header off of a corner with 27 minutes to go in first half.
B-L received a penalty kick which they converted with 3 minutes to go in first half.
B-L received another penalty kick (this one very questionable) with 11 minutes to go in second half. They converted again to go up 2-1.
Palmetto scored on a "self goal" off of a B-L defender's header. Miscommunication between goalie and defender led to the two colliding and the deflection into goal by Palmetto. Regulation ended tied 2-2.
1st 10 minutes of overtime was scoreless - both teams unable to finish several opportunities. With about 3 minutes to go in second half of overtime, B-L scored on a breakaway to go up and ultimately win 3-2.
Both teams played hard! Congratulations B-L on the win! Congratulations Palmetto on a great game and season!
