CENTRAL BUCKS WEST 4, SOUDERTON 2
Liam Rogers was a brick wall in goal.
The undisputed star of the Bucks’ win, Rogers turned away 51 of 53 shots he faced. In each of the three periods, the West goalie was pelted with a barrage of shots – 16 in the first, 17 in the second and 20 in the third. He allowed one goal in both the first and second periods and none in the third in a stellar outing.
Souderton took a 1-0 lead in the first period, thanks to a goal from Maxwell Ryon with assists from Seth Grossman and Nicholas Smith. That lead grew to 2-0 when Ryon scored in the opening minute of the second, this time using a Smith assist.
The Bucks answered in short order, scoring back-to-back goals in a three-minute span just two minutes after Ryon scored. Nicholas Bruno connected on an unassisted goal, and then it was Adam Ricci turning a pass from Alexander Korolev into the equalizer.
The two teams went into the final period deadlocked at two apiece. Midway through the period, Bruno scored a goal that turned out to be the game-winner, using an Anthony Dowd assist. Less than a minute later, Dowd found the net with assists from Bruno and Blake Hager. That 4-2 score stood the rest of the way.
