GAC vs North Oconee Soccer

On Wednesday May 11, 2011 I photographed the Class AA state soccer semifinals for the Norcross Patch. The Greater Atlanta Christian boys team took on North Oconee. The first half of the game remained scoreless. In fact, the game remained scoreless for the first 60 minutes until Paul Ille put the ball past goalie Jon Skinner which opened up the lead. Stewart Abrahart then put the icing on the cake with the Spartans’ second goal with a little under ten minutes left in the game. Here are some of my favorite images from the game.
