Andrew Matulevicius finished with nine saves in net.

Against the Panthers, Parkland raced out to a 10-0 lead after the first quarter and scored seven more in the second quarter to lead 17-2 at halftime and cruised through the second half. There were 12 different players that found the back of the net, led by four goals and two assists from Kusko.

Isaiah Fisher totaled three goals and one assist. Gerancher and Breckin Serratore both tallied two goals and combined for three assists. Esteban, Finnegan, Wetmore, Matt Scott, Matt Kelley, Shaner, Nate Lowrey and Jake Posocco all contributed one goal. Arezzi dished out five assists. Owen Radio won 13 faceoffs while Esteban had eight. Three different goalies saw time as Evan Saylor finished with eight saves, Matulevicius ended with three saves and Owen Fehnel had one.

Parkland had a busy start to its week with a game at Delaware Valley Monday evening and then hosted Moravian Academy on Tuesday. A game with Bethlehem Catholic, scheduled for Thursday was postponed so the Trojans won’t play until Tuesday at Freedom.
