There will be a new Division I girls' soccer champion this fall with the reigning champs' dreams for a repeat dashed Sunday night.

Peabody High and Acton-Boxboro battled on the Tanners' home field through double overtime until the Colonials finally found the net on a free kick, ending the contest, 1-0.

Prior to the first and only other loss this season (to the Colonials), the Tanners had a 38-game streak going from last year and were ranked No. 1 in the nation for three weeks.
