RICHMOND — Tristan Richards scored 3 minutes, 7 seconds into the game and Corey Henderson stopped 14 shots to lead the No. 2 Greenville High School boys soccer team past Richmond 1-0 in the Western D championship game Wednesday.

The top-seeded Bobcats (12-3-1) were trying to win their seventh straight regional championship. They had also defeated the Lakers (10-4-2) in the Western D title game in three consecutive seasons.

“It’s a little change of fortunes,” Greenville coach Jeff Richards said, “which is nice.”

Tyler Harrington paced Richmond with nine saves.

Richmond had seven of its eight corners in the second half, but couldn’t get the equalizer.

“Missed opportunities,” Richmond senior forward Peter Lorbeski said. “We probably had the ball about 70-30 but we couldn’t capitalize. They held us until the end.”
