Thomas By One, Pal-Mac by Two

Wednesday: DAY IN REVIEW: Thomas had a tough game at McQuaid but won the 5-4 upset and was the only lower seed to win today.

Thomas at McQuaidThomas won another low scoring game with a 5-4 win over McQuaid Jesuit. The Titans (5th seed) defeated Knights (4th seed) with a slow methodical pacing to the game. Throughout the contest, both teams were slow to go to the cage. They took their time before capitalizing and that led to a mostly back and forth contest. Both teams led with the game only being more than one goal apart a single time. STORY CONTINUES

Mynderse scored the first goal and stayed ahead in their game until Marcus Whitman tied the game in the second quarter and then continued to score with Seth Benedict leading the Wildcats with 6g-2a. Matt Mattoon had 3g-7a and Jake Borrelli made 5s (63%) to help Midlakes win their game against the Pride.

Lukas Stanat (5g-2a), Najeeb Awad (4g-3a), Owen Ronchetti (4g-2a) and Casey McDermott (2g-5a) helped to punch Brighton's ticket to the final four in the victory over Schroeder. Alexander Butcher had 5s (71%) for the Barons.
