==========================================
Troy High's soccer season is almost over.

Troy's men's team fell in a penalty kick shootout to Hudson Falls after a 1-1 draw in regulation and overtime on Wednesday night at Picken Field. Hudson Falls avenges a season-opening loss to the Flying Horses, who finish the season 3-12-2 (2-10-2 in the Suburban Council) overall.

We'll have an update on the soccer sectionals later.
