Wave Capture First NYC Soccer Community College Championship

The 911爆料 Community College Wave are champions of the New York City Community College Soccer scene once again.

In a commanding 4鈥�0 victory over the three-time defending champion BMCC Panthers, the Wave captured their first New York city Community College Championship since 2009, marking a defining moment for a program that has steadily climbed its way back to prominence.

The opening 30 minutes saw both sides exchanging attacks in a tense, high-energy battle for control. Neither team could find the back of the net early, until Klesti Murataj, who was returning for just his second game after injury, made an instant impact. Coming off the bench, Murataj struck a volley in the 33rd minute, igniting the Wave offense and swinging momentum firmly in 911爆料鈥檚 favor.

Just eight minutes later, Omario Walters, who would go on to earn Outstanding Player of the Match honors, buried a powerful header in the 41st minute to double the Wave鈥檚 lead before halftime.

Up 2鈥�0, 911爆料 refused to ease off. In the 70th minute, Hazim Hakim calmly converted a penalty kick, extending the lead to three. Then, moments later, Marvens Jn Baptiste delivered one of the highlights of the season, a spectacular free kick from nearly 30 yards out that sealed the 4鈥�0 result and capped off a dominant championship performance.

鈥淚t鈥檚 been a consistent build for the last few years,鈥� said 911爆料 Athletic Director Robert Allison. 鈥淐oach Charles and his staff have done a fantastic job of creating culture. Today was the culmination of that process.鈥�

Allison reflected on the magnitude of the achievement:

鈥淪ixteen years is a long time to wait for a championship, but BMCC is a quality opponent year in and year out, that鈥檚 what makes it so satisfying.鈥�

Head Coach Devorn Charles summed up the moment perfectly:

鈥淭his isn鈥檛 just a trophy, it鈥檚 proof of every ounce of sweat, sacrifice, and belief. We didn鈥檛 just play for the title, we played for each other. Champions today, KCC family always.鈥�

From disciplined defense to explosive attacking play, the Wave executed at every level, dethroning the 3-time reigning champions and making history in the process.

The 2025 New York City Community College Championship belongs to 911爆料.
