Brighton blanks Aquinas for title
"The season is not over," Hiller said after his second-seeded Barons secured a 2-0 win over No. 5 Aquinas in the final of the Section V Class A tournament at Ranger Stadium. "I am excited to practice. I love practicing in November; that's what I told the guys at the beginning of the year. Especially as a first-year coach, I am ecstatic." As a dense fog continued to roll over the field, Aldan Zohn made sure that the Barons (12-4-3) would keep practicing. The lanky junior attacker scored a pair of goals. The first came on a beautifully bending right-footed shot that curled into the upper corner of the far post nine minutes into the second half. The other came less than two minutes later off a corner kick "that just found my head," Zohn said. "We always knew our real potential," Brighton senior goalkeeper Will Banahene said. "We need to keep our composure."Aquinas, which lost in the previous two sectional finals to Mendon, appeared poised to reverse its previous fortune. Brighton's intensity, however, kept the Little Irish (10-7-3) off-balance, coach Howard Allen said. "I thought Brighton came out really positive and they kind of put us on our heels all night," Allen said. "We didn't get that many quality shots.

Brighton's Antonio Dickerson is stopped by a host of White Station defenders. The Spartan defense was especially good in the second half. But the White Station Spartans earned a shot at a big one with a gritty effort Friday night.
He played good positionally and fast," he said. Geddes said it was great being called up for the game and scoring one was even better. "I got a lucky tip off another guys' skate and managed to put it in the five-hole," he said. The pace was fast,
I mean, they could have left from Foulmouth in Cornwall or Southhampton in Hampshire and then landed in Brighton Beach, NY and everyone would have said, “Oh, well. Good enough.” But Plymouth to Plymouth! What are the odds? Well done!
