By Cort Reynolds

The Bluffton High School girls soccer team scored two goals in the final five minutes to tie Columbus Grove 2-2 in a thrilling finish to their Northwest Conference-deciding clash Tuesday night, October 3, at Steinmetz Field.

With the dramatic tie on an unseasonably hot evening, Bluffton repeated as outright league champions and won its third NWC crown in the last four years.

A loss to Grove would have likely meant a shared three-way title with the Bulldogs and Allen East. But the comeback tie means the Pirates finished as the only undefeated team in the league with five wins.
