CENTRAL BUCKS EAST 6, PENNSBURY 1
The Falcons held a 31-27 advantage in shots.
Cole Breen made that advantage meaningless, turning away 30 of 31 shots in a brilliant outing in goal for the Patriots.
The Patriots’ goalie gave a preview of things to come in an opening quarter that saw Pennsbury hold a 12-10 edge in shots, but the Patriots – thanks to a goal by Corey Kosick (Jaden Young assist) – led 1-0 after one.
East scored three unanswered goals in the second period. David Brown scored a short-handed goal with an assist from Kosick early in the period, and five minutes later, Gavin Widmer scored with assists from Alex Wilson and Samuel Gottesman. A goal by Young in the final minute of the period with a Gavin Widmer assist put the Patriots on top 4-0.
The Falcons broke up East’s shutout big when Christopher Sarver scored an unassisted goal one minute into the third period. Young (Alex Wilson assist) and Ethan Cenci (Drew Trask/Charlie Keiser assists) each added a goal for the 6-1 final.
