Boys A Final - Blake finally Seels the deal
By Staff Reports
Metrodome
The Story Line: It was a hard fought battle between two private schools, The Blake School and Totino Grace. In recent years Blake had left the Dome feeling more like the bridesmaid and not the bride, but this year courtsey of an Austin Dressen header with just 1:15 left on the clock, they will be wearing the white dress out of the Dome. It was an enthralling encounter which saw both sides throw caution to the wind in the second half. If it was the final game of Charlie "Sparky" Seel's 41-seasons as Blake head coach, what better way to go out than with his 1st state title.

The Quote:
Austin Dressen, Blake Midfielder: "Last night, me and goalie Tips Jackley actually went and prayed. Last year was close, but we didn't win last year, so we figured out if the power of God can't help us, then nothing can. Angels, Angels lifted me up that's what it was."
