Youngbloods
swat Stingers in Overtime
By Neil Parkin and
Joe Balan
Jack
Regan, Joe Balan and Larry Waxman led the
Youngbloods to a hard-fought OT win in
the 9:30 game at Belmont. The lead was
never more than one goal and was held
alternately by each team through the game.
Solid
play by David Tesarowski who was subbing
in for a missing Trevor Lawely, helped to
anchor the Youngbloods defense. Eric Nash,
Jesse Lindow, and Paul O'Connor also
helped to create confusion and
frustration in the Stingers zone.
Goaltender Johnny "Blaze" came
up big in his 3rd straight victory.
Ben
Fisher, subbing for the Stingers, did not
get thrown out of the game this time
around and scored a hat-trick, but the
Stingers failed to convert on a number of
scoring opportunities, took several
penalties, and paid for it. "I
sucked", Stingers' captain Neil
Parkin was heard to say.
Jack
Regan scored the OT winner on a screened
shot from the blue line. "He was
looking high", said Stingers goalie
Mark Fassett, "but the shot came low.
Maybe he got lucky".
After
the game, Joe Balan said: "The
Stingers are tough team, all my respect
goes to that organization and what they
have done over the last 3 seasons."
