Wed. 2/22/12
Wed. Feb. 22 Highlights
Gunnery 2 @ Westminster 1: Junior Marc Cibelli scored with 6:52 remaining in the third period to give #8-ranked Gunnery a 2-1 win. Gunnery junior Dawson Sprigings was strong between the pipes, earning the win with a 33-save performance. Cibelli and junior Anthony Bird each had a goal and an assist for Gunnery.
@ Berkshire 5, Millbrook 4: Berkshire PG Greg Smart’s powerplay goal with 59 seconds left in regulation kept his team’s Elite Eight hopes alive. Berkshire trailed after conceding a 5-on-3 goal with just under seven minutes left, but sophomore Craig Puffer tied the game at 14:47 of the third period. Berkshire sophomore Charlie Corcoran (2g, 1a) was the Bears’ high-scorer with three points. This was a key win for #10-ranked Berkshire, which is on the bubble and fighting to get into the top tournament.
Pomfret 1 @ Exeter 1: Pomfret junior goaltender Nick Ellis stopped the high-powered Exeter offense in its tracks, as he made 47 saves on 48 shots. Pomfret PG Ryan Hall tied the game with just under five minutes remaining. #3 Exeter, while they have their spot in the top tournament locked down, has not been in top form recently and is likely looking to build some positive momentum in their final regular season game against rival Andover on Saturday.
Taft 2 @ Trinity-Pawling 2: T-P junior Ghoerghe Dragomir – who is from God, Hungary – beat Taft’s Marc Schiller with 24 seconds on the clock and T-P tied 2-2 with Taft. Schiller played a strong game otherwise, with 39 saves.
@ Avon 4, Canterbury 0: Avon senior goaltender Michael Santaguida’s 30-save shutout helped the Beavers to a 4-0 win over Canterbury. Senior defenseman Jon Ahern and junior forward Vincent Russo each had a goal and an assist for #5-ranked Avon.
Belmont Hill 3 @ St. Paul’s 2: #7 Belmont Hill picked up two points in Concord, NH – a traditionally challenging task for ISL teams. Bel Hill sophomore Will Golonka had a pair of goals to lead the offense, and senior David Cunningham’s 37 saves helped erase a 39-29 St. Paul’s shot advantage.
@ Holderness 3, Dexter 2: Holderness beat Dexter 3-2 in a battle between teams that could well meet again in the Small School Tournament. Senior forward Shawn Watson scored twice for the hosts, and senior goalie Andrew Munroe earned the win courtesy of 30 saves on 32 shots. Junior forward Tim Harrison had a goal and an assist for Dexter.
Salisbury 6 @ Hotchkiss 3: #1 Salisbury made it 12 straight, winning 6-3 at Hotchkiss. Senior John Stevens and junior Aaron Berisha had two goals apiece, and senior Philip Zielonka had four assists. Hotchkiss actually led 2-0 in the second period, courtesy of two goals from junior Ryan Doppelheuer, but Salisbury scored four straight in the second period (all on the PP) to take control. Salisbury had five powerplay goals in the game.
@ Nobles 5, Governor’s 4 (OT): Nobles exacted some measure of revenge for the 6-0 beating they suffered at the hands of Governor’s February 8th with a 5-4 overtime win. Recent BC commit Chris Calnan scored the winner – his second of the game – 2:17 into OT. However, it was a dramatic 6x4 goal by Governor’s junior Ryan Scarfo – goalie pulled, and on the PP – with only 46 seconds remaining in regulation that got the game to OT in the first place. Deserving of special mention was the play of Governor’s junior goaltender Brendan McMenimen, who stopped 37 of 42 shots today, many of them Grade A chances. In addition to Calnan, junior Adam Gilmour (2g, 1a), 8th-grader Colin White (1g, 2a), and senior defenseman Phil Sciretta (1a) were the only players to record points for #4-ranked Nobles. Scarfo and Lucas Bombardier each had two goals for the visitors. Nobles outshot Governor’s, 42-32.
@ St. Sebastian’s 4, Lawrence Academy 3 – A goal by junior Tommy Kelley with 5:21 left in the third gave St. Sebastian’s a hard-earned 4-3 win over #2 Lawrence Academy. St. Sebastian’s came out hard, scored two early goals and carried a 2-1 lead into the first intermission. The second period was the reverse of that as Lawrence carried the play, and gained a 3-2 lead on goals by William Messa and Brady Burns only to see St. Sebastian’s senior Brendan Burke tie it up on the powerplay with 26 seconds left in the second. In the third, St. Seb’s came out hard and pressured Lawrence, forcing senior goaltender Nate Heilbron to come up with some big stops. And the one he didn’t stop was the one that made the big difference. In addition to his game winner, Kelley had two assists for the Arrows. Senior Danny O’Regan had three assists, and sophomore Corey Ronan had a goal and an assist. For Lawrence, the top scorers were senior defenseman Jacob Schechter and senior wing Matt Baldino, each of whom had two assists. St. Seb’s senior Gordon Donnelly got the win, stopping 33 of 36. Heilbron stopped 33 of 37 for Lawrence.
Kent 2 @ Deerfield 2: Kent scored twice in the third period to salvage a 2-2 tie with Deerfield. The #9-ranked Lions – on the bubble for the Elite Eight – conceded two first-period powerplay goals that put them in an early hole on the road. Shots were 28-23 Kent.
@ Kimball Union 4, Winchendon 4: KUA rallied to tie Winchendon thanks to third period goals from juniors Jordan Babb and Casey Miller. Senior forward Elie Vered (2g, 1a) led the offense for KUA, while Winchendon got goals from four different scorers. #6-ranked KUA is right on the bubble for the Elite Eight; should they miss out, they would have to be the overwhelming favorite in the Small School Tournament.
@ Choate 9, Loomis-Chaffee 3: Choate’s big three of Alex Rauter (3g, 2a), Bill Seligman (2g, 4a) and Ben Foster (1g, 4a) had their way with Loomis in a 9-3 blowout. The Wild Boars fired 49 shots on three different Loomis goaltenders.
St. Mark’s 6 @ St. George’s 3: St. Mark’s junior forward J.T. Lynch recorded a hat-trick as his team doubled up St. George’s. St. Mark’s also got big games from junior Ryan Medieros (4a) and senior Hassani Johnson (2g).
BB&N 6, Roxbury Latin 1: Senior Luke Griffin’s (2g, 2a) four points helped BB&N cruise past RL 6-1. Senior defenseman Aidan Hartigan chipped in three assists for the Knights. Shots were 41-9 in favor of BB&N.
@ Tilton 7, Vermont Academy 1: Tilton smacked Vermont Academy behind four goals from senior Kyle Larson. Senior Anthony Flaherty assisted on all four of Larson’s goals, and added one of his own (which Larson of course assisted on). Shots were 33-13 Tilton.
Groton 3 @ Middlesex 1: Sophomore Matt Pompa made 46 saves when these teams met on January 21st, and 39 saves in today's 3-1 Groton win. In two matchups this season, Middlesex poured 88 shots on net and only scored three goals. Any Groton grad could tell you that’s a .966 save percentage.
@ Cushing 7, New Hampton 1: Junior forwards Garrett Hehir (2g) and Thomas Aldworth (1g, 2a) paced the Cushing offense in a 7-1 rout of New Hampton. The Penguins are still in the picture for an Elite Eight spot but they’ll need help to get in.
@ Northfield-Mt. Hermon 4, Andover 3: Senior Brandon Bete scored with 1:41 left on the clock to push NMH past Andover. Andover outshot the hosts 49-39, but NMH junior Ben Csiernik made 46 saves to get the win in net. NMH junior Spencer Lee (1g, 2a) and Andover junior Eddie Ellis (2g) had strong offensive performances.
Berwick 7 @ Pingree 1: Berwick PG goaltender Jay Finch had his shutout spoiled with 5:37 remaining, but his 32 saves were more than enough as Berwick rolled to a 7-1 win. Berwick senior Mitch Rodgers was the game’s high-scorer with two goals and an assist. Pingree actually outshot Berwick 33-31.
Rivers 1 @ Brooks 1: Rivers and Brooks battled to a 1-1 tie in a goaltender’s duel between Rivers freshman Ryan Colena (22 saves) and Brooks junior Colin Langham. With the tie, Rivers guaranteed themselves at least a co-championship -- with Brooks -- of the Eberhart Division of the ISL. In addition, both teams have a good shot at the small school tournament.
Williston-Northampton 5, Albany Academy 4: Williston scored twice in the final 23 seconds to steal a win from Albany Academy. Williston junior Russ Olsson got the winner – his second of the game – with just 10 seconds left, only 13 seconds after PG Ole Setsaas’ game-tying goal. Junior Nicholas DeVito had two goals for Albany.
Milton 4 @ Thayer 3 (OT): Junior Elliot Vorel scored his second goal of the game in overtime to propel Milton past Thayer. Junior Jacob Farabee had Milton’s two other goals. In net, junior Andreas Graham kicked out 15 of 18 for the win.
