2010 Iowa Girls State Soccer Tournament

Class 1A Championship

Cedar Rapids Xavier 2, Union 1

Cedar Rapids Xavier survived a two-hour rain delay and a near goal from Union in the final minute to win its fifth-straight Class 1A title with a 2-1 victory over the third-ranked Knights.

In a battle among unbeatens, Union struck first, as Noel Mahood scored in the 28-minute mark. Xavier countered one minute later with a Lauren Konchar goal. Annie Dale knocked in a game-winning goal with five minutes remaining in the first half.

Union just missed a chance to tie the score with under two minutes remaining only to have its shot attempt hit the cross bar.

The match was delayed nearly two hours due to thunderstorms in the Muscatine area.

Cedar Rapids Xavier ends its season at 22-0 in winning its fifth-straight 1A crown. Union, playing in its first championship match, ends the year at 22-1.
