Aquinas Fights Back for Win

 SPORTSFIVE REPORT:  

Aquinas fought back from an early deficit to defeat Haverling 9-6. The Little Irish were trailing well into the second quarter, before they fought back and took a two goal lead late in the fourth quarter. The Little Irish finish their season at 14-2 with their two losses coming in their opening game against Irondequoit (8-7) and against nationally ranked Victor 10-3.

Haverling scored the first three goals of the game to take an early lead. Tyler Finch, Michael Rice and Ethan Harold scored for the Rams. The Ram defense also held Aquinas scoreless for the first 12:44. Aquinas took the field after the first quarter and played a strong second quarter. They scored the first four goals and held Haverling scoreless for six minutes. In those six minutes, they scored four goals to take a one goal lead (4-3). Haverling tied the game before the end of the half with a goal from Connor DiDomineck.

Haverling took the lead in the third quarter with an unassisted goal from Finch. Six minutes later, Aquinas tied the game for the third time at 5-5 with an unassisted goal of their own from Casey Hochheimer. The fourth quarter and therefore the game belonged to Aquinas. They scored four goals and held Haverling to only one. Evan Kelly scored all four goals for the Little Irish with only the first being assisted (by Hochheimer). Patrick Brewer scored the lone goal for the Rams.
