Chambersburg 3, Carlisle 1: The Trojans got off to a quick start on the road against the Thundering Herd in Monday night’s Mid Penn Commonwealth game, with Cristian Lopez poking in two goals in the game’s first 10 minutes.

Mario Wiesman also scored in the first half, while assists went to Luca Gaisbauer and Michael Cespedes for Chambersburg (6-3, 3-2 MPC).

“I thought our front 4-5 guys were excellent in creating chances and being dynamic,” Trojan coach Corey Grove said. “Cristian got us off to a flying start. We kind of took our foot off the gas with a few minutes left in the first half, but turned in a solid second-half performance to see the game out.”

The Trojans out-shot the Herd 12-3, although Carlisle had more corners, 6-3. Drew Cover made 2 saves for Chambersburg.

Carlisle 2, Chambersburg 1, 2 OT: The Thundering Herd punched in a goal with 4 minutes left in the second overtime period to topple the Trojans in a Mid Penn Commonwealth game at Trojan Stadium on Monday night.

Carlisle scored in the first half and held off Chambersburg (5-4-1, 1-4-1 MPC) until Lily Nichter finished off a series of one-touch passes for a goal that tied the game.

“I feel real bad for the players after this game,” Trojan coach Ed Franchi said. “They fought so hard and played so well, but the outcome didn’t go our way. We out-shot them 14-7 and I thought we had the better run of the play.

“I had to make some adjustments because I have several players who are sick, but every player stepped up nicely.”
