A frigid night for soccer had Demon fans feeling warm by night’s end in Fairfield when the Washington boys utilized late game heroics to down the Trojans 2-1 in double overtime for their third win in a row. 

Recording seven goals in two games last week, senior Zac Stout picked up right where he left with a goal seven minutes into the game off of a pass from Ayden Frazer. The Trojans (3-2) found the equalizer 18 minutes before the break and a stalemate ensued. That 1-1 tally stayed true until three minutes left in the second overtime period when Angel Mata had a throw in pass to Fabian DeJesus. The junior collected himself and then drilled a 25-yard dart past the Trojan goalie for the golden goal and the celebration was on. Cole Anderson collected 11 saves on the other side for the Demons. 

Washington improves to 4-1 overall and 3-1 in Southeast Conference play. They return home Thursday against Mount Pleasant (1-5). Check out video of the winning goal below.
