As a result, sophomore goalie Jack Faiola only faced five shots and had 4s/1ga (80%). On the other end of the field the defensive four of seniors Luke Pecora and Conor McCool and juniors Hunter Smith and Stanford Smith forced the Canandaigua offense to also shoot from the outside, with many shots going wide.
