YELLOWJACKETS: THREE-PEAT THREAT

Chapelgate Christian readies itself for yet another title chase, following a 2-1 victory over St. John’s Catholic Prep that ends its regular season.

Jim Becker and Alex McCurry combined for two goals to give Chapelgate the 2-1 overtime win Tuesday against St. John’s, which slipped to 4-6.

After a fairly uneventvull first half, Becker took advantage of a pass by Chris Carlson to shoot in a ball just out of the hands of St. Johns’ keeper John Kubala (nine saves).

The Yellowjacket defense, led by senior Mike Lovaas, was unable to shut out an equalizer goal by Matt Grus, sending the game into overtime.

Chapelgate was finally able to pull ahead for the win in sudden-death, when Alex McCurry took a pass from Jarod Bowersett and put up the winning goal.

The Yellowjackets enter the MIAA C Conference playoffs with an 11-1 league record, looking to earn their third straight tournament title
