Zach Helfrich scored twice for the Lake Mary Rams in a 4-1 win over the Winter Park Wildcats in the Class 7A Region 1 boys soccer final Tuesday night.
Helfrich slipped through defenders tapping in a goal off an assist from Jack Ireland with five minutes remaining in the first half. Then, on a counter attack in the 40th minute, Helfrich broke away putting a nice touch on the ball for another goal.
With the win, Lake Mary advances to the state semifinals for the second time in three years. The Rams won the Class 5A state title in 2019 and a portion of the current squad was on the championship team.
