After years of Churchill falling quick within the state championship recreation, Dubick wouldn’t be denied in the course of the Bulldogs’ 15-7 win over Broadneck at Loyola College, giving Montgomery County its first state title — for boys or ladies.

“It’s your flip,” they instructed him.
Fritz already believed this yr’s seniors might be this system’s greatest again after they have been simply standout sophomores.
“Everybody’s been saying: ‘Hey, we obtained you. That is your yr. Let’s go get it carried out,’ ” Fritz mentioned. “The stress is there.”
Dubick alleviated these nerves, main Churchill (19-1) to a 9-3 halftime lead towards Broadneck (16-4), an Anne Arundel County energy. After Dubick scored the ultimate aim with 4:57 remaining, he sprinted to the bleachers to pound his chest as midfielder Reed Drummond stood in place with shrugged shoulders.
“I’ve performed with Eliot for most likely over 10 years, so I’m fairly used to it,” attackman Gavin Gumucio mentioned. “It’s a reasonably particular factor to observe.”
When the ultimate buzzer sounded, Dubick threw the ball into the air, eliminated his helmet, lay on the turf close to the sideline and coated his eyes together with his arms as he burst into tears. Louis, who performed at Maryland, ran onto the sphere to hug his brother.
“Do not forget that second?” assistant coach Mike Winter yelled because the Bulldogs posed for a photograph.
