VAUGHAN, July 21 - The Under 18 Boys Ontario Cup Final kicked off at 12:30pm at The Soccer Centre in Vaughan with the Erin Mills Eagles squaring off against Ajax FC 95 Boys Red.  Erin Mills came out flying and created several chances in the first few minutes.  In the 12^th minute Erin Mills’ aggressive play was rewarded with a penalty kick that was converted by #44 Raheem Edwards.  The Eagles would add to their lead just before the half with a wonderful goal by #7 Darren Gertiesingh.  Erin Mills would keep the pedal down as they earned a second penalty kick in the 71^st minute, however, the Ajax goalkeeper MacKenzie Craig made the save.  Ajax would carry that momentum and cut the lead to 2-1 in the 74^th minute on a goal from #13 Dustin Giglio.  Erin Mills would come right back minutes later and increase their lead to two on a great header from #13 Tony Li.  In the 81^st minute, Ajax would counter once again as #11 Stefan Lamanna found the back of the net.  Ajax would keep battling to the bitter end, but were unable to equalize.  Congratulations to the Erin Mills Eagles, the Under 18 Boys Ontario Cup Champions!
