Saint Joseph’s put home two of the last three goals of the quarter to trim the Dolphin lead to 9-3 at the half.
Mount Saint Vincent would secure the win by outscoring St. Joe’s 7-4 in the second half. Stan Wong (Merrick, NY) and Mike Shea (Congers, NY) each tallied twice after the intermission, while Reynolds, Chris Beerman (Floral Park, NY) and Bill Downes (Barkhamsted, CT) also scored in the second half.

Ken Valentine (Centereach, NY) and Derek Charlton (Yonkers, NY) each posted four groundballs to lead the team, with Reynolds and James O’Connell (Elmont, NY) scooping three apiece for the Dolphins. Beerman led the Mount with a game-high 13 face-off wins.
Tom Egan (Nanuet, NY) picked up the win in goal for the Dolphins after playing the first 30:00 and making six saves. Mike Nuzzi (Westbury, NY) came on and made six saves in the second half for the Mount to go along with a groundball.
The Monks were led by Tyler Arsenault who finished the tilt with three goals. Blake Edwards added three points with a pair of goals and a helper for Saint Joseph’s. Brendan Dyer played the full 60:00 in goal for the Monks and made 13 saves, including six in the opening period.
For the game, Mount Saint Vincent held the advantage in
shots 42-35. Groundballs were even at 28 each in the game
and Mount Saint Vincent won 13 of the 25 face-offs in the
game. The Dolphins were also successful on 16 of their 23
