The Shoreham-Wading River boys’ soccer team ended its regular season the same way it played all year — with another victory.

With a 3-2 win over Glenn, the Wildcats capped off a perfect 15-0 season, earning the Conference Championship and solidifying their place among the most dominant teams in program history. 

Senior standout Zach Makarewicz was the hero in this one, scoring the game-winning goal to lift SWR to the title. His clutch performance was the perfect ending to an incredible regular season. The season though was an entire team effort and there were many heroes throughout the year. 

The Wildcats’ success has been built on a foundation of outstanding defense and goaltending. Throughout the season, Shoreham-Wading River never allowed more than two goals in a game, and they also allowed opponents to score two goals only four times the whole season.

Their defensive dominance was further highlighted by eight shutouts, including a remarkable start to the season in which they held their first five opponents scoreless. It wasn’t until their eleventh game that an opposing team managed to score more than a single goal against this lockdown defense.

Now, as the team prepares for the playoffs, excitement is building both on and off the field. The SWR social media team celebrated the accomplishment while reminding fans that the mission isn’t over.

“They didn’t just go undefeated — they achieved an incredible 15-0 perfect regular season record!” the team posted. “This historic season is a testament to the skill, grit, and unity of every player and coach. The challenge now begins! As they head into the playoffs, let’s keep the stands packed and the energy electric as they chase that championship title!”

The Wildcats have been perfect so far — and now they’re looking to finish what they started with a championship run.

Don't Expect Bregman to Pay Off

This week, one of the bigger names in the free agency cycle signed with the Chicago Cubs, and fantasy managers everywhere sighed. Usually, anyone heading to Wrigley Field is viewed as a positive, but for Alex Bregman, more information has emerged suggesting this move could spell trouble for his fantasy outlook. Bregman is a right-handed pull hitter who previously played in two of the more favorable home parks for that profile in Houston and Boston. Both parks feature short left-field dimensions that reward pulled fly balls and help inflate power numbers.

Futures Bettors Will Be Smiling

The College Football Championship is set, and it pits two of the more unlikely teams against each other. Indiana may have the largest living alumni base in the country, with more than 800,000 graduates, but few expected the Hoosiers to reach this stage. They feature zero five-star recruits and have instead relied on depth, discipline, and consistency while dominating all season long.
