TUESDAY PREP ROUNDUP: Teutopolis soccer advances to regional finals; Altamont volleyball wins three-set thriller over Teutopolis

Oct. 14—SOCCER

Teutopolis 2, Altamont 0

Ethan Thoele and Gavin Tegeler scored goals for the Teutopolis soccer team in its 2-0 victory over Altamont Tuesday at Bulldog Field.

"We stayed patient on the offensive end," Wooden Shoes' head coach Aaron Wendt said. "Our defense limited their opportunities going forward, and we just kept at it. We were a little slow with the ball, a little indecisive, and a little more direct compared to the last couple of games."

The win pushed the Wooden Shoes (16-1-2) into a Class 1A Regional Final against fifth-seeded Newton today at 4 p.m. at the same venue.

Tegeler scored his goal in the opening 40 minutes, while Thoele netted his in the second 40 minutes. Thoele and Nolan Runde assisted on both goals.

Thoele nearly had a two-goal match, but the first attempt got called off due to a player being offsides leading to Thoele putting his hands over his head in disbelief.

"I probably overreacted; it was probably offsides," Thoele said. "The second one, I was like, 'I'm just going to score this and deal with it, so I scored it and dealt with it."

As for the Indians, they end their season with an 8-8-4 record.

"I've been honored to have this group," Altamont head coach Jordan Leihser said. "They all give heart and energy."
