On Thursday , April 10th the 4th Annual Bowman Cup games between the top Juniors and seniors from the Rochester and Buffalo area were played at the HSBC arena in Buffalo.
The juniors competed very well. After being outscored 3-0 through the first two periods, they came storming back, falling just short and losing by a score of 3-2. Both of the goals were scored by MCYH players. Matt McGuire opened up the Rochester scoring, assisted by Greg Ryan. The second Rochester goal was scored by Pat Sofia. The Junior's were represented by seven players from our MCYH AAA teams.
The seniors, trying to repeat last years win, played great. With a 2-0 lead heading into
the third period, they appeared to have the game under control. Buffalo scored early in the third, but the Rochester team came right back to regain their two goal lead. The Buffalo team countered again, bringing the score to 3-2. With the pressure on, the Rochester boys scored again to regain the 2 goal lead . Buffalo poured it on, scoring two more goals late, sending the game into suddendeath overtime. Rochester kept the pressure on with the puck in Buffalo's zone for the majority of the extra period. With just forty two seconds left in overtime, the Buffalo team raced down and scored to win and bring the Cup back to Buffalo.
Two of the four Rochester Goals were scored by MCYH players (Steve Conlon and Justin Ritzel) with the other goals coming from Evan Roth (Canandaigua Academy) and Mike Broccolo (Maksymum Jr. B). The seniors were represented by four players from MCYH. The Scholar Athlete award was given to Steve Vragel, also an MCYH player.
Congratulations to all the participants in both games and Good Luck this upcoming season!!!!
