“Marshall came in with a good strategy to prevent us from playing a lit bit of our attacking style,” Dexter coach Scott Forrester told MLive. “I think we should've possessed the ball a little bit more at the midfield, but in the end we did create a lot of opportunities."

With the win, Dexter advances to its first regional championship game against Mason (20-3-1) on Thursday.
