Friday, February 21, 2003 By Mike Costantino With a roster full of mostly underclassmen and facing elimination from the playoffs, Paul VI turned to a freshman to play in nets and delivered a solid performance as Paul VI defeated Cherokee II 5-3 in tournament action at Hollydell on Friday night. Eric Lake, playing in the biggest game of his young career, did not give up many rebounds and the defenseman kept the front of the net clear for the young net minder. Balanced scoring was another factor in the win as five different players scored. After spotting Cherokee a 1-0 lead on a bad-clearing pass that was picked off by Zack Sawyer and deposited into the net, Paul VI responded with some hard work. |
