Saints upset by Bruins

Ranked 4th in the latest OCAA poll this week, there was optimism for the St. Clair College women's soccer team heading into their playoff opener against Sheridan Wednesday night. The Saints finished the season 7-2-1 and faced a 4-6 Bruins team they beat 2-0 earlier in the season.

The Saints' hopes of returning to the Final Four for a second straight year vanished with one shot early in the second half. Grace Makarewicz broke down the far side, shipped a shot on the fly from 15 yards out that went bar down in the 59th minute.

St. Clair suffocated Sheridan for a long stretch but could not find the back of the net as they were upset and their hopes for a long playoff run dashed.

Saints head coach Steve Vagnini was visibly disappointed following the game and shared a thought with Powerplay Sports. "Beyond disappointing," Vagnini said. "The accountability has never been there all year. Coaches loses games and player win them. This is on me. 100%. This is on me."
