BEEKMANTOWN — A 42-year run of no championships has finally ended for the Saranac Lake boys soccer team.

On Wednesday at Beekmantown High School, Saranac Lake won its first boys soccer championship in school history, topping Lake Placid 1-0 in the Section VII, Class C final.

In a defensive battle, Camden Reiley’s long direct kick 24 minutes, 15 seconds into the opening half held up as the game-winner that lifted the second-seeded Red Storm past the top-seeded Blue Bombers. Saranac Lake’s defense took over from there in a tight contest that saw very limited scoring chances generated on both sides.

“We’ve had good defense all year and we finished the good chance that we had,” Red Storm coach Josh Marlow said. “You just saw a team that wanted it. I just knew getting off the bus, our guys looked confident. I had a good feeling going in, but Lake Placid was a really tough team. I figured this was going to be a one-goal game.

“It’s hard to believe this is happening right now. It’s really amazing,” Marlow continued. “We won the 50-50s. We said coming into the game you have to win the little battles, and they add up. We dodged some bullets too, but it was all about taking care of the ball, playing aggressive, playing as a team. Everybody played great.”

Reiley boomed in his scoring shot from 45 yards out after Saranac Lake was awarded a direct kick near the left sideline near midfield. The senior sent the attempt toward the far side of the net and the ball sailed over the head of Lake Placid keeper Jack Armstrong and into the upper-right corner.
