PENNSBURY 6, SOUDERTON 5
The Falcons and Indians found themselves in a dogfight at Grundy Arena, and in a game that featured four ties and six lead changes, it was the Falcons scoring back-to-back goals in the third period to take the game’s first two-goal lead. They held off the pesky Indians for the hard fought win.
A recap of the dramatic final period would show that Logan Doyle scored in the opening minute with an assist from Evan Eisler, spotting the Falcons a 4-3 lead. Four minutes later, Seth Grossman connected for the equalizer, using Benjamin Fadden assist. Then came back-to-back goals by the Falcons in a three-minute span. Shane Siegmund (Colin Michalak/Brendan Macainsh assists) gave the Falcons a lead they would not lose eight minutes into the period, and three minutes later, Reece Millman scored an unassisted goal that put the Falcons on top 6-4.
With three minutes remaining in regulation, Grossman connected on his fourth goal of the night, this one a power play goal with an assist from Matthew Malanga to make it a 6-5 game, but the Indians would get no closer.
Earlier, the two teams spent the first two periods exchanging goals. Grossman (Malanga/Timothy Alexander assists) and Michalak exchanged goals in the first period. In the second, Millman’s power play goal with a Macainsh assist put the Falcons on top 2-1, but the Indians answered with consecutive goals by Grossman and Jaime Avaraia (Kyle Anderson/Carter Povazan assists) to take a short-lived 3-2 advantage. A goal by Macainsh at the horn (Michalak/Siegmund assists) knotted the score 3-3 heading into the final period..
