Indians Come From Behind Again

The Indians defeated the Sussex Hamilton Chargers Thursday to advance in the WIAA tournament.

The Menomonee Falls Indians soccer came from behind for the second postseason game in a row Thursday to capture the Regional Championship in the WIAA playoffs.

The win was all the sweeter as it came against school rival Sussex Hamilton.

The Indians fell to an early 2-0 deficit at halftime. The Chargers jumped to a lead just 2 minutes and 50 seconds into the game, and scored another roughly seven minutes later. The Indians once again trailed at halftime just as they did to Milwaukee Riverside on Tuesday.
