Sat. Jan. 18 Highlights
-- #2 Kent KOs #1 Salisbury

#2-ranked Kent, which had gone on the road and tied #1-ranked Salisbury 2-2 back on Dec. 13^th, today clinched the season’s series with an emphatic 6-2 win in front of a jam-packed home crowd.

Not only that, but Kent (12-1-1) handed Salisbury (9-1-3) its first loss of the season.

The offensive heroes for Kent were senior forwards Lewis Zerter-Gossage (2g,1a) and Phil Klitirinos (2g,1a). Senior F Anthony Rinaldi and junior D Josh Hardiman also found the back of the net for the Lions. Dylan McCrory and Mitch Allen each had a pair of assists.

After a scoreless first period in which Kent had the better of the quality scoring chances, Anthony Rinaldi put the Lions up 1-0 at the 2:02 mark of the second period. Salisbury’s Kale Kane evened the score at 1-1 three minutes later.

The killer for the visitors came late in the second, when Klitirinos converted on a Salisbury turnover and stuffed it short side past Knights senior goaltender Mitchell Datz. Just 1:28 later defenseman Hardiman blasted a shot from the point through traffic to beat Datz low and give Kent a 3-1 lead to take into the second intermission.

Early in the third, Harvard recruit Zerter-Gossage made it 4-1 after skating through the neutral zone, keeping the puck wide, cutting in toward the circles and firing a wrister past Datz’s glove hand. Klitirinos made it 5-1 off a rebound before Salisbury senior d-man Will Toffey, on a 5-on-3 PP, scored on a blast from the point to cut the lead to 5-2. Zerter-Gossage made it 6-2 with 13 seconds left off a beautiful feed from Klitirinos.

Asked what the key to the game was, Kent head coach Dale Reinhardt said, “We wanted to go out and pressure the Salisbury D.  If you let them break out of the zone untouched you’ll be in trouble.”

Kent succeeded on that score. They have tremendous depth both up front and on the back end -- and they really came after Salisbury. Their aggressiveness appeared to interrupt Salisbury’s flow and take them off their game. Kent didn’t let up, whereas the best aspects of Salisbury’s game were evident only in spurts. At other times, Salisbury sat back a bit and was outmuscled in the 1-on-1 battles. Kent simply was the stronger and more mature team.

In 12 of 14 games this season, Kent has allowed two or fewer goals. Only Exeter, in a 4-3 win over Kent on Dec. 8, and Hotchkiss, in an 8-3 loss, have scored more.

Kent senior goaltender Stephen Morrissey, who’s been a model of consistency all season and stopped 33 of 35 today, did not have to make a lot of great saves, as Salisbury had very few Grade A chances. On the other hand, Salisbury’s  Datz (26/32) had a rough day, and while he would surely like to have a couple back, the loss was a team loss.

@ Berkshire 3, Avon 2 (OT) – After two periods Avon, on goals from Sam Levin and Jake Gresh, held a 2-1 lead on the road. But Berkshire’s Craig Puffer tied it up early in the third and Charlie Corcoran scored a powerplay goal at 3:13 of OT to win it. Senior G George Blinick (28/30) got the win, while Avon junior Tucker Weppner (35/38) took the loss. Avon has lost three in a row and five of their last six. #8-ranked Berkshire, on the other hand, is undefeated in their last six (5-0-1).

@ Millbrook 2, Hoosac 1 – Millbrook senior Brett Supinski broke a 1-1 tie with a late second period short-handed goal to give his team the win. Supinski also had an assist on Millbrook’s first goal, from junior Zach Coppola. In net, Millbrook junior Matt Kricheli (16/17) got the win; Hoosac junior Jordan Elwood (28/30) was the hard-luck loser. Millbrook moves to 12-7-1 (10-6-0 in NEPSIHA play).

@ Westminster 5, Loomis-Chaffee 2 – Westy got goals from five different scorers and senior G Zac Hamilton kicked out 24 shots. Loomis had the edge in shots, 26-25, but there is no consolation to be found there. The Martlets are now 4-0-1 in their last five.

@ Belmont Hill 4, St. Paul’s 1 – Belmont Hill got goals from four different scorers to improve to 8-5-3 (6-5-2 in NEPSIHA play). Senior Ryan McConnell (29/30) earned the win.

@ Northfield-Mt. Hermon 6, Lawrenceville 1 – PGs Jordan Dow (2g) and Matt Greenwood (2a), and juniors Ben Freeman (1g,1a) and Spencer Manchuck (1g,1a) each had two points. PG goalie Kyle Redmond had 17 saves for the win. NMH outshot L’ville 63-18. NMH is now 12-5-1 overall (10-5-0 in NEPSIHA play).

@ Winchendon 4, Kents Hill 1 – Winchendon senior goalie Oscar Forell (32/33) held the fort and seniors Matthew-Donald Toombs (1g,1a), Matthew Tufts (1g,1a), Nicolas Potvin (2a), and junior Jarod Fitzpatrick (1g,1a) each notched two points.

@ Trinity-Pawling 6, Kingswood-Oxford 0 – Senior D Johnny Coughlin (1g,3a) had four points and senior F Devin Brink (1g,2a) had three assists to lead the way for T-P. Senior Matthew Michals (18/18) had the shutout. T-P moves to 8-6-1 overall (6-6-1 in NEPSIHA play).

@ Rivers 4, BB&N 1 – Rivers won its fourth in a row behind junior goalie Ryan Colena (22/23). BB&N suffers consecutive losses for the first time this season.

@ Hebron 3, Tilton 0 – Tilton outshot Hebron 33-14 but came up empty-handed as Hebron senior goaltender Austin Wildes kicked out all 33 shots he faced to earn the shutout win.

@ St. Mark’s 5, St. George’s 0 -- St. Mark’s senior goalie Robert Labonte stopped all 28 shots he faced in a shutout performance today. St. Mark’s got five goals from five different scorers and are 9-1-2 over their last 12 games.

@ Choate 3, Deerfield 2 – Deerfield outshot Choate, 49-30, but came out on the wrong end of a 3-2 score. For Choate, junior goaltender Andrew Tucci was the hero, kicking out 47 shots to help the Wild Boars avenge a Dec. 14^th 4-2 loss at Deerfield. Senior F Joey Caffrey (2g,1a) and senior D Max Daigle (1g,2a) led the attack. Junior Jeremy Germain chipped in with two assists. The Wild Boars are 3-0-2 over their last five and improve to 8-4-2 (5-4-2 in NEPSIHA play).

@ Albany Academy 7, Pomfret 4 – Junior Shawn Knowlton (3g,3a) had six points. Senior Jake Mayette (2g,1a) and junior Sean Dempsey (4a) also had big days.

@ Gunnery 6, Williston-Northampton 2 – Senior F Nathan Sucese (3g,1a) and senior G Andrew Schneider (21/23) led #10-ranked Gunnery to their eighth straight win. Gunnery, which outshot Williston 55-23, is now 12-5-0 overall (10-5-0 in NEPSIHA play).

@ St. Sebastian’s 4, Governor’s 3 – Seniors Corey Ronan (2g,1a) and Nick Flanagan (1g,2a), and junior Will D’Orsi (3a) each had three points to lead St. Sebastian’s, which scored all four of their goals in the second period.

@ Andover 8, Noble & Greenough 4 – #5-ranked Nobles held a 4-3 lead halfway through the second period but allowed five unanswered goals and saw their five-game winning streak come to an end. For Andover, which outshot Nobles 41-31, senior forwards Michael Lata (1g,2a) and Robert Devaney (1g,2a) and senior d-men Michael Kim (2g,1a) and David Belluche (1g,2a) each had three points. Nobles soph Luke Stevens (1g,2a) figured in three of Nobles’ four goals.

Exeter 4, Hotchkiss 1 – In a neutral-site game played at the Springfield Olympia, #4-ranked Exeter, on a pair of first period goals by PGs Patrick Besse and Henry Hart just 17 seconds apart, broke out to an early 2-0 lead. Later in the first, Hotchkiss, on the PK, cut it to 2-1 when junior Roberto Cellini stripped an Exeter d-man at the blue line, broke in alone, and beat Exeter junior goalie Max Barr (22/23). In the third, Henry Hart, off a pass from Kevin Neiley, scored a shorthanded goal, rifling one under the crossbar past Hotchkiss sophomore goalie Kyle St. Denis (23/26). Hart scored his second goal of the game, an empty-netter, to make it a 4-1 final. Exeter is undefeated in their last seven games (6-0-1).

Kimball Union 2 @ Milton 1 – PG Chris Shero and senior Tyler Bird scored second period goals less than three minutes apart -- and that was all #9-ranked Kimball Union needed today. Milton senior D Chad Malinowski scored a powerplay goal at 12:07 of the third to make it a one-goal game, but the Mustangs failed to get the equalizer. Senior Paul Leger (26/27) earned the win for KUA, while junior Drew Hotte (32/34) took the loss.  

Brooks 3 @ Holderness 2 – Junior D Chris White’s goal with 56 seconds left in regulation lifted Brooks to a 3-2 road win. It was White’s second game-winner in a row as he also had one last night against Groton. Brooks has now won four of their last five and are 11-4-1 on the season, all NEPSIHA games.

Delbarton 2 @ Malden Catholic 1 – Sophomore defenseman Anthony Petrillo broke a 1-1 tie at 12:20 of the third to lift Delbarton to the win. Senior F Chad Otterman assisted on both Delbarton goals, while freshman goalie Troy Kobryn came up huge, kicking out 32 of 33 shots for the win. Malden Catholic, which got their goal from junior defenseman John McLean, outshot Delbarton 33-17 but came up on the short side of the final score. Delbarton, undefeated at 9-0-1, will stay in town and face Dexter at 11:00 am Sunday morning before returning to New Jersey.

@ Springfield Cathedral 6, Mount St, Charles 2 -- Sophomore F John Leonard (2g,2a) and junior F DJ Petruzelli (3g) led the offense while the latter's younger brother, 6'5" freshman G Keith Petruzelli, stopped 27 of 29 shots for the win.

U.S. Women Top St. Seb's, 5-2
Brookline, Mass. -- This afternoon, the 2014 U.S. Women’s Olympic Hockey Team topped St. Sebastian’s, 5-2, in a game played at Dexter-Southfield’s rink, which, by the way, was jam-packed. The game really should have been played in a college rink – Walter Brown Arena or Harvard would have been just right.

A Will D’Orsi goal 41 seconds into the game gave St. Seb’s a 1-0 lead that held into the first intermission. In the second period, the Olympians took over and dominated, as Hilary Knight, Anne Schleper, Gigi Marvin, and Kendall Coyne scored four unanswered goals to give the U.S. women a 4-1 lead after two.

In the third, Kacey Bellamy scored for the U.S., and Corey Ronan for St. Sebastian’s.

As far as we know, there was no game sheet kept – this was an exhibition – so we’re hoping we have all the scoring right.

Brianne McLaughlin played the first 30 minutes for the U.S., and Jessie Vetter took over midway through the second. Tedy Loughborough played the full game in net for the Arrows.

This typist has seen every U.S. Women’s Olympic Hockey Team – this is only the fifth edition, as the women’s game was only added to the Olympics in 1998.  And this quadrennial’s team is an extremely good one. It’s a little hard to compare Olympic Women’s teams year to year because the women’s game keeps improving at a rapid pace.
