Perry has raised a state qualifying banner in three of the past four seasons. The talent is solidly in place to make the run 4-of-5, but the Bluejays know nothing will be given to them, that they will have to earn it.

DES MOINES — School career scoring leader Jesus Rodriquez turned his defender and rolled a shot into the far corner of the Winterset goal just over three minutes into the second overtime as Perry scored a thrilling 1-0 state quarterfinal this afternoon.

The Bluejays advance to the state semifinals against Norwalk Friday at 2:30 p.m. on Field 6. The winner will play for the championship Saturday at 2:30 p.m. on Field 9; the consolation match is Saturday at 1:40 p.m. on Field 6.

Much more from Perry’s thriling win, including photos and video, later this evening.
