INDIANAPOLIS – The girls soccer duo of Penn and South Bend St. Joseph and the volleyball power of Mishawaka Marian will carry the area banner for state tournament State Finals and semistate play Friday and Saturday.

The No. 1 ranked Penn girls soccer team will play for its second straight state championship Friday night at Butler University. The Kingsmen, who are also ranked No. 1 nationally, face Guerin Catholic in the Class 3-A finale at 8 p.m.

Penn, which beat Noblesville Saturday in penalty kicks to win the semistate title, is led by senior star Kristina Lynch. The standout was an All-American and the Indiana Player of the Year last season and will play at Florida State. Lynch led the Kingsmen past Brebeuf 2-0 in the Class 2-A state title game last year for the program’s first state title after Penn had lost 2-1 to Brebeuf in the championship match in 2015.

Penn sports a 22-0-1 mark while Geurin Catholic is 16-1-1.

The St. Joseph’s girls team will play for the Class 2-A state title on Saturday. The Indians meet Evansville Memorial at 1 p.m. at IUPUI. St. Joe handled Bellmont 4-0 Saturday to win their own regional title.

The Indians are 10-4-1, while Memorial is 18-4. St. Joe lost 1-0 to Memorial in a shootout in a match played on Sept. 16 at a tournament in Evansville.

Marian will face New Castle in the Class 3-A semistate at Plymouth on Saturday. That match will follow the Class 2-A match, which begins at 1 p.m., between Andrean and Alexandria Monroe.

Marian beat Hanover Central 3-0 and Northwestern 3-0 to win the Kankakee Valley Regional championship Saturday.

Pioneer, which sidelined Triton 3-0 in the regional semifinal match at Culver Saturday, will play Lafayette Central Catholic in a Class 1-A volleyball semistate at Frankfort this Saturday.

Crown Point, which beat Concord and Michigan City to win the LaPorte Regional title Saturday, will face Yorktown in the Class 4-A Semistate match at Frankfort this coming Saturday.
