Goalie Freese uses his head to give Episcopal a draw
Matt Freese lived out every goalie’s dream when the Episcopal Academy keeper ran the length of the field and headed in the tying goal in the final minute of regulation, as the Churchmen (7-6-3 overall, 0-2-2 league) drew with Inter-Ac League rival Germantown Academy, 1-1, Friday.
Freese went the distance in posting six saves, with his goal coming off a corner kick by Johnny Cunningham.
