Chambersburg 2, Cumberland Valley 2: The Trojans took a 2-0 lead, the Eagles tied it by halftime and the teams played 60 more minutes of scoreless soccer in a Mid Penn Commonwealth game at Trojan Stadium on Tuesday night.

“I’m very proud of the effort from beginning to end,” Chambersburg coach Ed Franchi said. “The second half was played very well by both teams, limiting opportunities.”

Ahsia Thomas found the net twice in the first 16 minutes for the Trojans (7-8-2, 4-6-1 MPC), on passes by Lindsey Swanger and Addie Lloyd. But CV (8-4-3) scored  less than 30 seconds later and tied it up 3:45 before the half ended.

Franchi said, “Ahsia did a great job moving without the ball and Lindsey and Addie fed her great balls in space.

“In overtime, we had a couple of good opportunities, but couldn’t punch it in. While we didn’t get the ‘W’ we have a lot to be proud of, because CV has had our number for many, many years. Bianca (Sommers) and Addie controlled the middle well, Ahsia (who now has 15 goals) was solid like she usually is and Lily Cornwell played well.”

The Eagles had posted 31 consecutive wins over the Trojans. Both teams had 10 shots and the Eagles led in corner kicks, 4-3. Bridget Kemerer made 4 stops for the Trojans.
