Eagles flying high at the right time?

Chazy had another strong season finishing 12-0-0 in Division II of the Northern Soccer league. But the Eagles were at their best at the end of the season, a good omen as they get set to enter sectional play, hoping to take home another state championship.

Senior Brandon Laurin capped his spectacular Chazy career in grand style, notching hat tricks in the last three games of the regular season, and scoring 11 goals in his last four games.

But he isn't doing it alone. Over the past four games, Chazy outscored Willsboro, E'town, league runners-up Lake Placid and Westport by a total of 25-0. In their last seven games of the season, the Eagles allowed only one goal, while burying 46 of their own shots.

Once the postseason begins, their domination of the league won't matter, as one loss will end the year. But the #1 ranked Eagles seem to be peaking at the right time, and will hopefully be able to carry over their strong finish into the state playoffs.
