Ryan Kummer scores game-tying goal with 35 seconds left to help Glenbard East tie with St. Charles North – Shaw Local

Ryan Kummer knew he had a beat on the backline.

With less than a minute remaining on the clock and Glenbard East trailing 2-1 to St. Charles North , the junior forward knew he needed to get behind the defensive line to force one into the net.

And after seeing junior defender Erick Barrera looking to the middle with the ball, he knew it was the perfect chance.

“We practice making our runs across all the time,” Kummer said. “On that last one, I saw Erick, and before the game he told me that if he saw me he was just going to play it, and he did just that.”

Kummer ended up putting a foot on the cross, shooting it into the bottom corner of the net with 35 seconds remaining to help the Rams secure a 2-2 tie against the North Stars on Thursday night.

“That was just awesome,” Kummer said.
