Day one of the UIL soccer championships in Georgetown provided four close games.

All of the finals were decided by one goal. One game needed overtime and another needed overtime and then penalty kicks to decide the champion in games on April 10.

The highlight of the day belonged to Celina, which won the Class 4A Division I title. The Lady Bobcats rallied from an early deficit and beat Davenport, part of Comal ISD. The win was the fourth straight title for the North Texas school, becoming the first UIL soccer program to win four in a row.

Matt Welch of Star Local Media posted that the seniors at Celina were 112-3-3 in their career with four state titles.

Class 4A Division I boys

Salado 3, Fort Worth Castleberry 2, OT 

Salado scored late to force overtime and then won it in the 82nd minute on a goal by Luke Anderson.

That was enough for him to earn MVP honors for the Eagles.

Salado had an interesting path to the finals after a forfeit win in the semifinals meant they didn’t play a game versus Progreso to get into the championship game.

Castleberry, part of River Oaks ISD, struck first with a maker by Christian Serrato. 

The Lions led 2-1 at the break after a goal by Jose Chairez in the 38th minute.

Between the two goals by the Fort Worth score, Luke Munson tallied a goal in the 12th minute for Salado.

A goal from Damonte Foster in the 66th minute forced overtime for Salado.

The Eagles (24-3-3) won eight straight and 19 of their final 20 games.

Castleberry hadn’t lost since Jan. 22 — going 16-0-1 in that stretch. The Lions were 22-2-3 this year.
