The reported 15-save performance made Chagas the central figure in a match where Paramus Catholic spent long periods protecting a narrow lead.
In a knockout match, that margin leaves no room for a goalkeeper to lose concentration. Chagas’ workload underlines how close the contest remained after Falcone’s first-half goal.
Paramus Catholic’s attack produced one clear breakthrough. The report says Estrada supplied Falcone, who finished to make it three consecutive matches with a goal.
That sequence gives the forward added importance as the tournament moves into the quarterfinals. Paramus Catholic has reportedly scored eight goals and conceded only one during its three-match winning streak, with Falcone contributing at a crucial stage of that run.
The combination with Estrada also showed the value of efficiency. Five shots on target were enough to produce the only goal, while Chagas protected it at the other end.
The result reportedly came with Paramus Catholic seeded 31st, against a Demarest side seeded 15th. That gap made the victory a notable tournament result, even though Paramus Catholic’s overall record remains four wins and eight defeats.
The report says Demarest has now lost three straight, scoring only once in that sequence. Paramus Catholic, by contrast, has found momentum at the right stage.
The quarterfinal will test whether that momentum can survive another step up in pressure. Chagas’ form and Falcone’s scoring run are the clearest storylines to watch.
