It was a heartbreaking loss for the Sydenham Golden Eagles at the OFSAA National Capital Region final at the Rogers Centre in Toronto last week. The Golden Eagles took Peterborough’s Crestwood High School to overtime. The entire season came down to a two-yard attempt at a decisive touchdown by star running back Josh Thompson, which was held off by the Crestwood defence. Minutes later Crestwood kicked the winning field goal. The win was the first for Crestwood after losing in the final game at the Rogers Centre three years in a row. Still, it was an impressive run for the Golden Eagles, a season full of comebacks that will add to SHS football lore.
