SOCCER: STANDISH ENDS WITH EPIC GAME
Standish-Sterling got the final-minute heroics it needed.
Only to see the game go on for another hour.
After dramatically forcing overtime in the last 60 seconds of regulation, the Panthers played Manistee dead even through overtime, double overtime, penalty-kick shootout and six rounds of sudden death.
Manistee finally got the nod in Round 7, scoring the game-winner for a monumental 4-3 victory in the Division 3 boys soccer regional semifinal at Clare.
“Until you have been in a PK shootout, it is hard to understand how stressful they are,” Standish coach Doug Dahn said. “We were as well-prepared for PKs as possible and did well. Manistee hit some really great shots and their goalie made a really big save.”
That saved ended an epic battle with the season in the balance, sending Manistee into the regional final to face Fremont at 6 p.m. Friday. It ended a historic season for Standish-Sterling (14-5), which won the program’s first Jack Pine Conference title and first district championship.
“All in all, I am so proud to be the coach of this group and I am so happy for them and all they were able to accomplish,” Dahn said. “It has been an amazing run.”
After a weather delay and playing the first 10 minutes through hail, Standish-Sterling went to work on overcoming a 2-0 deficit. The Panthers broke through with just 15 minutes to play when Landon Nixon volleyed home a corner kick from Carson Koin. With about a minute remaining, Koin sent another corner kick to Ben Briggs, who buried the equalizer, kicking off a whirlwind overtime.
After neither team scored in the first 10 minutes, Standish got a goal from Arthur Vieira Carvahlho on a Koin assist before Manistee answered with a long range shot to send the game into PK shootout.
Down 4-3 entering the final round, the Panthers got a must-make goal from Ian Emans and a must-stop save from Branton Bartlett to force sudden death. Seven kicks later, Standish had its first miss and Manistee capitalized for the victory.

SOCCER: STANDISH TURNS AWAY PINCONNING
Pinconning played like a vastly improved team but couldn’t hold off Standish-Sterling forever.
Standish-Sterling scored once in the first half then sealed the deal with two late goals for a 3-0 win over the Spartans, who they downed by a six-goal margin earlier in the season.
The Panthers (9-2, 6-1) remain in a tie for first with Ogemaw Heights in the Jack Pine Conference. Keeper Lucas Verdusco and center backs Ian Eman and Jacek Barwinski led the way to the team’s seventh shutout of the season.
Barwinski, Ben Briggs and Arthur Vieira Carvalho each scored a goal in the win while Carson Koin delivered three assists.
Pinconning (4-8, 3-4) shined defensively, fronted by Ryan Kowalczyk, Trevin Billingsley, Remi Merithew and Landon Cooley.

TYLA TUNNEY, STANDISH-STERLING
Whenever the Standish-Sterling volleyball team needs a spark, Tunney is there to deliver. “Tyla pours her heart into practices and is a such a positive student-athlete on our team,” coach Terra McMann said. “She knows how to lift up each and every one of our girls.” The junior plays right-side hitter and defensive specialist as an all-around player. She leads the Panthers with 23 digs, 11 aces and a 91 percent service percentage.

The Standish-Sterling girls cross country team has captured three team titles already this season and Christie is at the front of the pack. The junior posted a trio of Top-4 showings in the early season, highlighted by a first-place finish at the Standish-Sterling Rifle River Invite. “She always has a big smile and is quick to make you laugh,” coach Russell Schalk said. “She works hard and is always willing to put her teammates first.” Christie owns a personal best of 20:54.3, posted last season at regionals.
