Elmira Boys Win 3-2 in Soccer
Logan Brimmer scored the decisive goal off a Dan Dimon assist late in the game to lift the Elmira boys soccer team to a 3-2 victory over visiting Binghamton on Wednesday in Southern Tier Athletic Conference action.
John Beecher scored for the Express (1-1) with about eight minutes remaining to even the score at 2-2. Elmira sophomore Jan Ziembicki’s first career goal helped the Express go into halftime tied at 1-1.
Ismar Turkovic and Tony Vu scored for the Patriots (0-2).
“We’re a young team this year. I think we showed our immaturity at times,” Elmira head coach Derek Hamilton said. “The way that we came back was fantastic. I think we were too naive to give up, to be honest with you. It was a feel-good win.”
The Express opened the season Saturday with a loss to defending Section 4 Class AA champion Ithaca.
