SGS Freshman keeper Finn Kelly was named WIAA Athlete of the Week for 2B schools after not allowing a goal in regulation or overtime at the State 2B boys soccer Semifinals and Finals matches at Sumner in November.  His biggest save was in the Championship game's shootout -- see Video of the State Shootout.  Tied at 5 points each with Life Christian, Marshall Roll made his kick on goal and Finn made save for the 6-5 win to give the Dragons their third State title in nine years.  Congratulations, Finn!
