Champions (again)

June 1, 2025 -

The 2009 Girls (Blue) team won their second State Cup title in the last 2 years with an exciting 3-2 come from behind victory. The win came against the defending State Cup Champions from PPA, whom our girls had lost to last season in the final.

Rush took an early 1-0 lead after a Taylor Savoy (2028 Lackey HS) cross landed at the foot of Mekenzie Ganley (2027 Chopticon HS), who one touched the ball for the goal. After conceding two goals, and down 2-1 at the half, the girls dug deep and kept fighting. Ava Bernth (2028 Leonardtown HS) broke away and finished with composure by hitting the corner of the net early in the second half. Later in the game Savoy got her body on the ball to knock in Ella Leiux's (2027 Huntingtown HS) corner kick. The game ended in a flury of opportunities by PPA, and some timely saves by keeper Paige Smith (2027 Great Mills HS). The team won despite several injuries including a devastating ACL tear to star player Piper Tarleton (2028 Leonardtown HS) just one week before the game.

Well done ladies. This now gives Southern Maryland Rush seven State Cup Titles since our club began competing in 2020, all won by our girls teams.
