HC men's soccer claims GPAC title

With both teams needing to win the conference championship to go the national tournament, the Hastings College men’s soccer team found itself locked in a battle with Midland in Saturday’s GPAC championship.

Both teams went through the first half, and most of the second, scoreless. And then Jordan Green did what he does best — score goals.

Green gave the Broncos the lead with less than 16 minutes remaining in the match. Nearly five minutes later, he essentially clinched the victory for HC with his second goal.

“When you miss so many chances in the first half, it kind of gets in your head,” Green said. “But you know you have to stay calm, and when that came in front of me, I knew I had to just stay calm and hit it and good things will happen.”
