EVANSVILLE, IN (WFIE) -

Following their win over, St. Joseph's-South Bend in Saturday's Class 2A State Championship game, the Memorial Girls' Soccer team came back to school on Sunday to celebrate with the Tiger Faithful.

Hundreds of friends, fans, and family members welcomed the team back as they rode in on Lincoln Avenue and showed off their new hardware- the Class 2A State Championship trophy.

The crowd then moved into the gym to celebrate a title that was sealed by a goal late in the game off the head of junior Olivia Shafer.

The Class 2A title is the 3rd State Championship for the girls' soccer program joining the teams from 1996 and 2008.
