Boys soccer: Otselic Valley wins in overtime

SOUTH OTSELIC - Otselic Valley rallied from a two-goal halftime deficit to force overtime, and picked up a 3-2 OT victory on Wednesday afternoon.

“It was a tale of two halves,” said OV coach Jake Preston. “Madison was the more aggressive team in the first half. Once again, we had no subs, but we slowly gained momentum in the second half.”

OV forced a penalty kick when Garrett Wood was tripped in the box. Wood made good on the first of his three goals paring the deficit to one.

With six minutes remaining, Wood put away a crossing pass from Jake Hackett to tie the game.
