Varsity Boys Soccer

Last week, boys varsity soccer clinched the tournament championship with wins over Georgetown Day School (4-2) and Maret (4-0). The top-seeded Panthers won both the regular season and the tournament title in the MAC, a feat not accomplished by PBVS since 1998. 

Patrick Ritter ’25 put away a penalty kick in the first half against GDS; followed by second half goals (and assists) from Luke Britton ’25 (Scott Landry ‘23), Watt Marin ’23 (Landry), and Ritter (PK). In the finals of the MAC tournament against Maret, Davide Bertuzzi ’23 recorded his fourth goal of the season, assisted by Landry. In the second half, Marshall Lloyd ’25 (Landry), JP Sosnitsky ’25 (Marin), and Landry helped the Panthers to a 4-0 victory. This is the tenth shutout for starting keeper Walker Lyall ’24 who, with help from his defensive unit Mac Wilson ‘24 (captain), Eli Butler ‘24, Britton, Bertuzzi, and Miles Monroe ‘23 (captain), have lead the Panther’s to a record of 15-1-2, allowing only 15 goals in 18 games and a number three ranking in the State.

The team defeated Paul VI (1-0) in the quarterfinals of the VISAA state tournament on Monday. The lone goal was scored by Colin Cordell ‘25 and assisted by Ritter. Lyall recorded his 11th “clean sheet”. The team saw this historic season come to an end last night with a 0-1 loss to St. Christopher’s in the state semifinals. Congrats on a great season PBVS!
