Matt Thorsheim drew a foul on a takedown inside the 18-yard box and converted the ensuing penalty kick to deliver the Colts (9-3-1, 9-3-1) a win over the Braves (10-2-2, 9-2-2), keeping their hopes of a division championship alive. CBA can win the Class A North championship if it defeats Marlboro Freehold beats Manalapan on Friday.
