-- Ninth seeded Hilton defeated eighth seeded R-H this afternoon in the last game to be played in the R-H stadium. The Royal Comets are building a new stadium for next season. The Cadets won 10-7. The game was won in the third quarter but it was the stepped up goalie play of Ken Stiles in the fourth quarter that really kept the game out of reach of the Royal Comets.
Stiles had two saves in the first 36 minutes of the game and finished the game with 6 saves, holding the Royal Comets scoreless in the final 12 minutes. Matt Gladstone played the entire game for the Royal Comets and finished with 10 saves.
The scoring throughout the game came in spurts. Hilton scored the first goal with Mike Crumlish finding Brett Endres open on the crease, at first it looked to be a save by Gladstone, however, the ball kept its forward momentum and resulted in a goal. RH scored the next four goals with Torry Whitcher and Brad Sauln each scoring twice. The scoring spanned two quarter, with the score 2-1 in favor of the Royal Comets after one quarter.
Hilton came back with three goals of their own before the end of the quarter with Endres scoring his second (assisted by Steve Bernsten), followed by Bernsten scoring with an assist from Kyle Youngman. Jimmy Gaffney scored the final Cadet goal of the quarter. The final goal of the half was all the doing of Gladstone. After Hilton pressed during a clear, Gladstone was left alone about 10 yards from the goal, however, instead of shooting he passed the ball off to Chris Aycock for the goal. The Royal Comets led 6-4 at the half.
Hilton scored the first four goals of the third quarter to move from a two goal deficit to a two goal lead. The Cadets played a solid twelve minutes, with nothing spectacular but strong solid fundamental lacrosse. The lone R-H goal came with 0:18 remaining during a man-up opportunity. Aycock scored the goal, with an assist from Jake Alvarez. The game's first half was penalty free but in the second half the officials decided to stop letting the teams play and began to call a multitude of penalties.
In the fourth quarter, Hilton added two more goals onto their lead, while Stiles held the Royal Comets scoreless to end the R-H sectional hopes. Matt Fracassi and Davis Smith scored (both unassisted) for the Cadets. The Cadets move on to the second round to face top-seeded Fairport.
