Cocalico beats Conrad Weiser in double overtime for its first District 3 Class 3A boys soccer title
The Daily Harrisburg team
Third-seeded Cocalico beat No. 1 Conrad Weiser 1-0 in double overtime Thursday night at Landis Field in Harrisburg. It took more than 101 minutes for anyone to score. With six minutes left in the second overtime, senior Breck Popolis' throw-in bounced right back to him, and he rolled a shot inside the left post from about 20 yards. Popolis, once the team's ball runner, then ripped off his jersey and raced for the corner.
