GoalKeeper
STEVEN CRONIN HAD EIGHT SAVES IN GOAL IN THE FIRST HALF. MIKE PIPER HAD 5
SAVES IN THE SECOND
Offense
MIKE MCLACHLAN HAD A STELLAR PERFORMANCE WITH 3 ASSISTS-THE LAST OF WHICH
WAS A WELL-TAKEN SHOT WHICH STEVEN CRONIN STUCK BACK IN. STEVEN CRONIN AND
NATE TOWER BOTH TALLIED FOR A SECOND GAME. NATE'S GOAL OPENED THE SCORING TO
PUT THE NEW MILFORD SIDE UP 1-0. STEVEN HAD 2 GOALS ON THE DAY-HIS FIRST, A
NICE CURLING BALL THAT SNUCK UNDER THE CROSSBAR. SEAN SEDORE SENT A SWEET
CROSSING BALL ONTO THE FOOT OF ANTHONY MORIN-WHO POWERED IT HOME. NOAH
ROSSITER CONTRIBUTED SOME DEFT, ENERGETIC PLAY.
Defense
ZACK DISORBO AND ERIC ZHU WERE STALWARTS ON DEFENSE. THE "D"
WAS A LITTLE LOOSE IN THE FIRST HALF BUT TIGHTENED UP IN THE SECOND WITH
HELP FROM COLIN BOHDAN, LUKE ANDERSON, AND MATT COSHAL.
Comments
DESPITE STARTING WELL, WITH A 1-0 LEAD, THE NEW MILFORD SIDE WAS A BIT
"BACK ON THEIR HEELS" IN THE FIRST HALF-SEEMING A LITTLE LAX AND
TENTATIVE. A COUPLE OF OFF-SIDE CALLS NEGATED SOME EARLY CHANCES FOR THE
BOYS. THEY MANAGED ONLY THE 1 GOAL TO TRAIL 2-1 AT HALF, DESPITE SOME NICE
RUNS BY ANTHONY MORIN, MIKE MCLACHLAN, NATE TOWER AND ALEX IMMOHR. IN THE
SECOND HALF THE BOYS REPRESENTED THEMSELVES WELL WITH THREE FINE GOALS AND A
"NEVER GIVE UP" ATTITUDE. ONLY A BIT OF HARD LUCK ON A LOOSE
BOUNCING BALL THAT MADE ITS WAY INTO THE NEW MILFORD GOAL KEPT THEM FROM
HOLDING THE TIE. JUST A GREAT SECOND HALF EFFORT.
