November 10, 2005Sets sink Suttons BayMUSKEGON - The sun finally set on the most successful soccer season in Suttons Bay history.North Muskegon scored twice on set plays - one in each half - to beat Suttons Bay 2-1 on Wednesday in a Division 4 state semifinal in Muskegon. "They put two set plays together on us that came back to bite us in the end," said first-year Suttons Bay coach Thomas Singer, whose team finished with a 18-4-1 record. But even though the season came to an end, Singer said it was a successful one. "I couldn't be any happier for them," Singer said. "It was hard for them to lose their existing coach and try and put their faith in a new coach. We all put that aside. "We had a great run together. We continued to build momentum before the postseason and I think that helped a lot. "The farther we got and the more we won and the more confidence we had in each other." Suttons Bay scored first on a header by Jesse Wright off a nice feed from Mike Morrison. North Muskegon tied the contest with 4:54 left in the first half on a goal by Brandon Houseman on an assist by Grant Sininger. North Muskegon (20-4-2) netted the game-winning goal 7:45 into the second half. This time it was Sininger that got the goal and Houseman the assist.
