VIDEO: Capturing Busy Tuesday Night in Brookfield Sports
East nearly knocks off top-ranked Marquette in boys soccer, while Central posts two victories — boys soccer over Tosa East and girls volleyball over rival Brookfield East.
Tuesday was a notable night for varsity sports teams at Central and East, and the Patch video camera was on the scene ... or scenes.
In boys soccer, Brookfield Central went to Hart Park to face Tosa East. The Lancers scored in the first minute and went on to a 4-0 victory.
Over at Central — whose artificial surface was more equipped to handle the wet conditions — Brookfield East faced the state's No. 1 team, Marquette High. It was deadlocked 2-all late in the second half, but the state's top player, Patrick Hodan, set up the game winner for the Hilltoppers in a 3-2 decision. With the win, Marquette (13-0-0, 6-0-0 Greater Metro Conference) locked up the league title over East (14-3-0, 4-1-0).
