Quaker Valley freshman Isaiah Graham sends team to WPIAL championship

ROBINSON TWP. — Many teams that make deep runs in postseason play rely on their underclassmen to make plays, but for No. 9 Quaker Valley, it placed its trust on its underclassmen to help punch its ticket to the WPIAL 2A boys high school soccer championship game in the team’s 3-2 win over No. 13 Ambridge on Tuesday, Nov. 3. With the game sent into a second extra time, freshman midfielder Isaiah Graham put home the game-winning goal to send Quaker Valley back to the championship game for the first time since 2023. “Once I saw Connor [West] with possession of the ball, I was just sprinting towards the back post hoping that it would get through and it did,” Graham said. “From there, everything just went blank. It’s scary playing in a game like this as a freshman, competing against players that are 3-4 years older than you and trying to prove yourself.” Along with the assist on the game-winning tally, West also tallied the Quakers’ first two goals. West’s first goal came as he knotted things up at a goal apiece following Ambridge forward Emmitt Olenic’s opening tally in the 14th minute. His second came 15 minutes into
