Bermuda's Tristan Smith scored one goal and created another for Vermont against New Hampshire in the Lions Twin State Soccer Cup.

The 18-year-old, who attends St.Johnsbury Academy, represented Vermont in last month's 36th annual encounter between the two teams and was voted the MVP.

Smith, a Somerset Trojans product, scored early in the second half before he was taken down in the box to earn his side a penalty. The game was played at Castleton State College and ended in a 3-3 draw.

"I love this game, I want to help out the charity, the Lions," he told Burlington FreePress.com

"I was kind of surprised I got the award. I'm happy and thankful for a nice day. I'm sure my parents are happy that I got it too," said Smith, who was watched by his father, Kevin Smith, and grandfather Vernall Adderley.

"They like watching me play. I tried to play as hard as I can. I wanted to thank everybody."

Smith attended St.Johnbury for three years and will continue his education at the Pennsylvania College of Technology, where he will carry on playing.
