Pusch Ridge beat Phoenix Country Day 2-0 at home Wednesday night to advance to the quarterfinal round of the 3A state playoffs for the first time since 2016 when the program made it to the semifinal round. It might be a bit more difficult to get to the semis this year with top-seeded Northwest Christian (13-0) standing in the way, however…..
