Saturday: Schroeder over Irondequoit
May 13, 2006 - Most games played today were not close ones, but the Schroeder vs Irondequoit was anyone's game until the end, Midlakes beat Mynderse by one goal and Churchville was the Chili winner on Saturday.
It was a generally well played game and either team capable of the win, but a strong third quarter made the difference as Schroeder was the 8-5 winner over visiting Irondequoit. Defense was the name of the game as both teams controlled the pass of the game with excellent play by close defenseman and Webster goalie Denis Cotanza and Irondequoit goalie Zach Nash.
Schroeder scored first as junior attackman Grant Catalino hit the nets at 8:22 on a drive from behind the cage. The Eagles came back at 5:35 when sophomore attackman Greg Wright pick up a "bounce pass" from Joe Parker (not credited), and scored just as a Schroeder penalty expired. The Warriors went ahead again at 4:36 when Dennis Costanza cleared the ball over the midfield line and moved the ball to Jay Willmes who found Eric Chavoustie for a 3-2 inside break goal. At 2:28, Parker scored on a sweeping drive from the front of the cage and the teams were tied at two at the end of the first quarter.
Irondequoit broke the tie at 10:13 when Mickey Haight scored an unassisted goal. Haight was dramatic at face offs where he won 13 of 17 in the game. The Schroeder defense, however was able to hold the Eagle scoreless for the next twenty six minutes. Schroeder scored at 3:36 when Andy Winslow hit the net on a bounce shot. Willmes scored the last goal of the half in man up as he received a feed from Catalino at 2:56. Schroeder led at the half 4-3.
The Warriors scored all four goals in the third quarter. Mike Tota scored first at 8:56 with an assist from Willmes. Willmes scored an unassisted goal at 4:23. Tota scored again at 2:19 on a textbook fast break with an assist from Chavoustie. Catalino scored Schroeder's last goal of the game at 1:28. His behind the back shot was assisted by Chavoustie and Webster ended the quarter up 8-3.
Although the momentum clearly belonged to Schroeder, the Eagles continued to play hard and work for the win. The defense stepped up and held the Warriors scoreless in the last quarter, while the offense scored two. The Eagles who had the majority of ball time in the fourth quarter might have scored more goals except for the efforts for the Schroeder close defense that included Drew Palmer, Tim Winslow, Eric Horeth and Chris Nicodemi who did an excellent job in limiting shots from Haight. The Irondequoit goals came from Kevin Coholan at 7:28 and Wright at 6:55 (both goals unassisted).
