“This was a hard fought win and I am happy we came away with the championship” said Captain Jay Imondi. It was a tough game for both sides, as Blackout only held a 3-2 lead at the end of the first. It was during the second however, that they managed to take over, leaving the period with a 10-5 lead. The final period was as much of a battle as the first, but with Blackout so far ahead the championship was as good as theirs.

Statistically Blackout was led by Goralnik, who had 5 goals on the night. Goralnik was not alone however, as Gibb’s 4 goals and Jay Imondi’s 3 goals, helped lead the offensive attack. In the losing effort, Team E.E.R.C.S. was led by Ryan Walsh and EJ McDonald who had three goals apiece.
