It wasn’t easy, nor quick, but after over 90 minutes of play Friday, the Long County girls soccer team beat Screven County 3-1 in an overtime, penalty-kick shootout to advance into the second round of the state playoffs. Playing in Ludowici, the Lady Tide and Lady Gamecocks were scoreless after two halves of regulation play. The teams then played two five minute overtime periods, but still no one could score.
