(Kyle Franko/ Trentonian Photo)Expand ROBBINSVILLE — The Hopewell Valley girls soccer wanted to clinch an outright CVC Colonial Division championship the right way. That meant with a win. Meg Kurian scored on a long-range shot 33 seconds into double overtime and the Bulldogs did just that by beating Robbinsville, 2-1, on Tuesday afternoon at the Steven J. Mayer Athletic Complex in a second half and overtime filled with drama. “This has been a goal for, like, my entire lifetime,” senior center back Clara Mayer said with a laugh. “This has definitely been a big season goal. Just every year we’ve been progressing and this year we have some great freshmen and all the returners have gotten better. From there we’ve really improved improved and been able to accomplish this.” Hopewell (12-2-2, 6-0-1, 13 points) needed a win or draw to capture the Colonial crown outright, but a loss would have allowed Robbinsville (9-4-2, 4-2-1, 9 points) to grab a share. Notre Dame (10-4-1, 5-1-1, 11 points) was also a 2-1 winner over Steinert on Tuesday, which brought a tri-champion scenario into play had Robbinsville won the game. But no need for all of that. Not after Kurian, an impressive freshman, scored with an unstoppable shot from 30 yards out less than a minute into the second overtime. “It felt really, really good,” Kurian said. “I was like you have to take your chance because you don’t know if you are ever going to get it again. I was just watching and hoping for the best.” Elizabeth Buchert gave the visitors the lead in the 17th minute in the most Hopewell way possible. Charlotte Barnes fired a long throw-in into the box that bounced once off the turf, eluded the goalkeeper, hit Kurian, and came off the underside of the crossbar all before it was tapped in by Buchert for her 12th of the season. Normally, this would be enough for the Bulldogs — they lead the league with eight cleansheets – but Robbinsville grabbed an equalizer in the 53rd minute when Kinsley Franke, another freshman, scored on a long shot. All of a sudden the game burst to life. Delainey Ross smacked a shot off the crossbar 52 seconds after Franke scored the equalizer. In the overtime, the Ravens were inches away from a share of the title after Sofia DiMeola hit the post. Just after that, Hopewell should have had a penalty kick when Buchert was hauled down inside the box only for the whistle not to blow. Seconds after that, the first overtime ended with a mad scramble inside the Robbinsville box that ended with the ball somehow not crossing the line and in the arms of Ravens goalkeeper Gabby Sabol. “We were trying to treat it as any other game,” Mayer said. “Obviously, we knew what was at stake so trying to keep calm and cool under pressure.” Hopewell extended its unbeaten streak to 13 games (11-0-2) and secured itself the No. 1 seed for the CVC Championships. It’s also in good shape to be the top seed in the Central Jersey Group III sectional. “I’d say (the biggest key) is just team chemistry,” Mayer said. “We all just work so well together. The relationship between defense, midfield and offense where we are all trying our best for each other and not just for ourselves.”
