The Friars defeated St. Joseph Hill Academy, 3-0, in a girls soccer state CHSAA semifinal at the Aviator Sports and Events Center in Brooklyn Monday. St. Anthony’s (19-0) will play St. Mary’s at the Nardin Academy in Buffalo Saturday at 11 a.m. for the opportunity to win its fourth-straight state title. The Friars claimed the league title last year but there were no state championships because of the COVID-19 pandemic. St. Joseph Hill Academy finished 13-3-2. "Everything we’ve worked toward is for this," said Olivia Perez, who scored two goals. "We want to be state champions again. We want to four-peat and we gave it our all today."

While it was most certainly a team effort on Tuesday, one player off the bench gave the Friars a lift when they needed it most. Junior reserve forward Lily Baldi scored with 6:50 left in the first half and ignited top-seeded St. Anthony’s to its fifth CHSAA girls soccer title and 33rd straight victory after a 4-0 win against a tenacious No. 2 Sacred Heart at St. Joseph’s College. Baldi had a goal and an assist in a win against St. Dominic on Sept. 15, and hadn’t scored since then until the final. SEE PHOTOS Photos: CHSAA girls soccer final ...
