H.S. Girls Soccer: Lake-Lehman shuts down Holy Redeemer for D2-2A crown

WRIGHT TWP. &mdash; The guy who used to be the smallest came up big Saturday night.
				Mike Zaleski scored twice and Crestwood steered the action all game as the Comets defeated Valley View 4-0 to win their fourth consecutive District 2 Class 3A boys soccer championship.
				Crestwood (13-0-2) will play District 4 champion Selinsgrove (10-5) on Tuesday at a site and time to be announced.
				Zaleski has been there for all four district titles. The first one came when he didn&rsquo;t measure up to his teammates.
				&ldquo;As a freshman, I was one of the smallest ones on the team,&rdquo; Zaleski said. &ldquo;And then I grew throughout high school and now I&rsquo;m the second tallest on the team.&rdquo;
				Zaleski looked a lot taller than his claimed height of 5-foot-11 on his first goal. Johnny Olejnik sent a long direct kick into the penalty area, and Zaleski jumped up and connected on a header less than two minutes into the game.
				Crestwood controlled play for the most part in the initial 40 minutes and made it 2-0 on Collin Bogdon&rsquo;s goal with 6:28 left until the break. Keeper Cole Kranson kept it that way with a leg save with five seconds remaining.
				Valley View had a patch about eight minutes into the second half where Shay Gillen, Dominic Pichany and Luke Kotcho had shots. The Cougars, though, could never generate a steady attack or disrupt Crestwood&rsquo;s precision passing game.
				&ldquo;They&rsquo;re the best team we&rsquo;ve seen all year,&rdquo; Valley View coach Danny Burg said. &ldquo;We hadn&rsquo;t seen that kind of possession up in our league at all to be honest with you. So getting (offense) in spurts isn&rsquo;t something we&rsquo;re used to. Out style of play is aggressive and not technical.&rdquo;
				Ben Rossi assisted Zaleski with 15 minutes left in the game. Nico Schwartz finished off the scoring.
				The game was the third for Crestwood in six days after a long layoff following the Wyoming Valley Conference season.
				&ldquo;We had 10 days between the last game of the regular season and the first playoff game,&rdquo; Crestwood coach Dave McFarland said. &ldquo;We really restarted. We kind of started preseason-like conditioning-wise and stuff like that. That&rsquo;s probably why we weren&rsquo;t amazing against Berwick, but the goal was to finish now at the top and go into states with at least a chance to win the next game.
				&ldquo;Hopefully, this isn&rsquo;t the max. Hopefully, we&rsquo;ll have another step forward.&rdquo;
