High School Roundup: Kittel ties Trumansburg scoring mark in boys soccer victory

Ithaca Journal

Senior Abreham Kittel scored two second-half goals to equal the Trumansburg career goal-scoring record and lead the Blue Raiders at Dryden, 2-1, in Interscholastic Athletic Conference North Large Division boys soccer action.
Kittel broke a scoreless tie 10 minutes into the second half, on a feed from Jacob Cozzarin, then gave the Blue Raiders (10-2) a two-goal lead off an assist from Danny Lapp 17 minutes later. He stands at 57 goals, equaling the mark set in 1981 by Barth Gardner. Kittel will have a chance to break the record in T-burg’s next game, Wednesday night at No. 1-ranked Lansing.
A minute after Kittel’s second goal, Dryden (9-2) cut the deficit to one on a goal by Timothy Lewis on a feed from Mike Harvey, but the home team could not get the equalizer. The Blue Raiders had a slim edge in shots (11-10) and the Purple Lions had the edge in corners (5-3).
Seamus Henehan made six saves for Trumansburg, while Haile Cutter stopped five shots for the Purple Lions, who will take on Union Springs at 4:30 p.m. Saturday.
Newark Valley 3, Candor 2: Tyler Rypkema broke a 2-all tie with 11 minutes to play, lifting the Cardinals. Philip Lindhorst and Chad Goodrich also scored for NV, while Jake Van Scoy and Adam Nichols had the Candor goals. Micah Gorsline made eight saves for the winners, while Tristan Over had six for the Indians.
