圣泽维尔点球大战险胜拉伊尔：挺进肯塔基州高中男足决赛
肯塔基州高中体育协会男子足球州半决赛11月4日在列克星敦市保罗·劳伦斯·邓巴高中球场上演，路易斯维尔圣泽维尔队（St. Xavier）经过常规时间、两个加时与点球大战，以总比分2比1、点球3比1击败来自尤宁市的拉伊尔队（Ryle），挺进11月7日的州决赛。
圣泽维尔队开场不到两分钟就由 Logan Seales 远射破门取得领先，拉伊尔队则在上半场第27分23秒由 Chase McCarthy 罚入点球扳平比分。此后双方再无建树，比赛拖入点球大战，圣泽维尔门将 T.C. Kron 扑出拉伊尔队的最后一粒点球，帮助球队锁定胜局。Kron 在上半场因禁区内犯规吃到黄牌并送出点球，点球大战的扑救完成了自我救赎。
圣泽维尔队本赛季战绩为23胜0负1平，是全州排名第一的球队，正在冲击队史第18座州冠军。拉伊尔队以23胜3负1平结束赛季。圣泽维尔队将在决赛中对阵邓巴与巴兹敦另一场半决赛的胜者。

St. Xavier Edges Ryle on Penalties to Reach Kentucky Boys' Soccer State Final
In a KHSAA boys' soccer state semifinal on November 4 at Paul Laurence Dunbar High School in Lexington, Kentucky, Louisville's St. Xavier outlasted Union's Ryle through regulation, two overtimes and a shootout, winning 2-1 overall and 3-1 on penalties to reach the November 7 state final.
St. Xavier scored inside the first two minutes on a long-range strike by Logan Seales. Ryle equalized at 27:23 of the first half when Chase McCarthy converted a penalty kick. Neither side scored again, and in the shootout St. Xavier goalkeeper T.C. Kron saved Ryle's final attempt to seal the win - redemption for Kron, who had conceded the first-half penalty and been shown a yellow card for the foul.
St. Xavier, 23-0-1 and ranked No. 1 in the state, will chase its 18th state championship. Ryle finishes 23-3-1. St. Xavier will face the winner of the other semifinal, between Dunbar and Bardstown, in the final.
