Pittsford Advances to the Class A Finals

SPECIAL REPORT: Pittsford moved on to the Class A Championship to face the winner of McQuaid Jesuit vs. Penfield.  The Panthers held the Cadets scoreless until the 4th quarter defeating Hilton 12-5.  The Cadets defense was noteworthy throughout the contest.  Goalie Jason Mosher had a strong game and finished with 12 saves for the game.  In addition to the strong performance in the cage, the Cadet defense played a strong zone throughout the contest.  The Panthers were forced into multiple bad shots throughout the contest.  The biggest problem from Hilton came from their limited possession time.  The Cadets struggled to have many chances at the goal.   Four of their five goals were scored in the final 3:03 of play.
