The Dragons responded in the final half with three goals to tie the match. The hosts scored on a penalty kick, its second of the final half, then added another goal to make it 4-3. Argos would score the tying goal with just 35 seconds left in regulation play.

The No. 15 ranked RedHawks got goals from Gernando Quevado, Lucas Bontreger, Marcos Hernandez and Efren Ortega in the victory.

The duo of Junior Argueta and Alex Martinez each had an assist for Goshen.

It was a record-setting night for Goshen star Bontreger. The senior notched the 52nd goal of his outstanding prep career, breaking the old program record of 51 goals held by 2014 Goshen grad Isaac  Huerta.

Goshen advances to play No. 9 Concord, which beat Elkhart Central 3-0 in the other semifinal match Wednesday night, in the sectional championship game on Saturday at 2 p.m. at Memorial.
