Shaker High School senior Sami Terra has led the boys' soccer team into the state regionals after overcoming injury setbacks earlier in the season. Terra played a key role in the Section 2, Class AAA final on October 31, 2026, at LaSalle Institute in Troy, New York, where Shaker faced Guilderland. The match featured a notable duel between Terra and Guilderland senior Jack Wasserbach. Shaker's victory secured their advancement to the regional tournament.
The team's run to the regional stage marks a significant achievement for a squad that dealt with injuries to key players, including Terra, during the regular season. Terra's return to form has provided a boost as Shaker prepares for the next round of the state playoffs.
