The ball bounced between players about 8 to 10 yards from goal before Sean Hartman drove a right-footed shot into the upper-left corner.Chazy held a 6-5 advantage in shots and a 3-1 edge in corner kicks during the opening half but went into the break trailing.The Eagles needed less than two minutes of the second half to pull even.Duprey earned a penalty kick after being fouled inside the box while matched one-on-one with a defender. Weeden stepped to the spot and drove the penalty down the middle as the Finney goalkeeper dove to his left, tying the game with 38:04 remaining.Chazy completed the comeback less than 16 minutes later.Duprey took a free kick from approximately 41 yards out and chipped the ball into the goalmouth. The ball dropped untouched a few yards in front of the net, bounced once and skipped past the goalkeeper to give the Eagles a 2-1 lead with 22:54 remaining.Chazy protected the one-goal advantage the rest of the way to secure another opportunity to play for a state championship.Northville will be seeking its third state title and first since 1995.The Falcons have also finished as state runner-up twice. One of those losses came against Chazy, which defeated Northville 1-0 in the 2009 Class D championship game.</div></body>
