Decatur comes back from four-goal deficit, Clinch 3A East Region

BERLIN, Md. – The Stephen Decatur Seahawks stared down a four-goal deficit with just seven minutes to go and didn’t blink.

Decatur rattled off five unanswered goals, including the go-ahead goal from Ellie Dutton to sink Mt. Hebron 10-9.

The Vikings got out on the board early and dominated possession for most of the first 10 minutes of the game. Decatur kept the pace and matched with three goal of their own to knot things up with just a minute to go in the first half. But, the Vikings offense exploded for two goals in the final minute to take a 5-3 lead headed into the break.

Mt. Hebron came out firing and took a commanding lead with just those seven minutes to go before Decatur’s fortunes changed.

The Seahawks will head to Mt. Hebron to battle things out as one of the final four teams left in the 3A.
