The Wall Wombats who were making their 3rd straight trip to the State Cup finals. Finally got the gold after a hard fought match vs. PDA Charge 2-1. The Wombats feat was made more impressive by the fact that they played a player short for almost 33 minutes in the 2nd half. The team had a player red carded which left them to play 10 vs. 11.
In the final minute of the match Cassidy Bentinente got a through ball and ran onto and toe poked the ball into the back of the net for the winner. One minute after that goal the Wombats were crowned NJ State Champions. Making them the 2nd Wall girls team to win the Cup in the past few years the other being the Wall Strikers in 2007.
Now the team will be preparing for a trip to the Regional Championships in West Virginia July 2-7th
