Chaminade 11 - Parkway Central 6

Short senior defensive stalwart Jake Entwistle, the Red Devils defeated the Parkway Central Colts 11-6. Jake had a mandatory school event, so everyone had to step up the defensive efforts. Senior captain Danny Faust bore most of the load as he was charged with guarding Central's big scorer, Matt Brown. Matt is a big strong 2M and Danny,with some help from seniors Chris Duncan and Chris Watkins, was able to hold Matt to only 2 goals.

The game was a close 3-1 after 1 quarter, but in the second quarter shooting deep, the Red Devils rattled off 5 goals by 5 different players to the Colts one goal to end the half 8-2 which pretty much sealed up the game. Central was clearly focusing on stopping senior captain Jack Meara from scoring and Jack's teammates stepped up the scoring. Senior captain Chris Watkins and junior Kevin Glauber both had hat tricks, matching their season highs set against weaker competition in Florida. Glauber had a particularly memorable goal in the 3rd by converting a short hole pass (that was almost stolen) into a rapid sweep shot the ricocheted off the goalie into the side-netting. And for those who care, hitting the side-netting makes me jump up and go "Oooooo" almost as much as a bar-in does.

Chris Watkins was named player of the game at the pool for his 3 goals, 2 assists, 1 steal and pitching in at 2M guard. After looking at the stat sheet and reflecting on the game, Danny Faust deserves the award as well for his 2 goals, 2 assists, 4 steals and great defense. Both captains had great games and really stepped up with their fellow captain having an off night.
