Falcons slaughter William Tennent 8-2

The Falcons entered the game the clear cut favorites as they played a weak squad in William Tennent, the team in last place in the cellar of the division and they have yet to win a game. Pennsbury came in feeling confident, but the fans would hope not too confident. The Falcons didn't hold back in this game as they registered 53 total shots and ended up winning by a six goal margin. Pennsbury's captain, Matt Mager shined as he guided the Falcons with five goals on the night; one short of the double hatrick. Mager would open up the scoring from a nice pass from Mike Hlatky, who returned after missing the last few games from playing in Canada. Hlatky had a great return for the Falcons as his netted a goal and dished off three assists. It appeared the Falcons had a jump start with his presence on the ice on both ends. Tim Wunder got the nod but didn't receive much action with only 14 shots on goal. Wunder stopped 12 out of the 14, it wasn't that he played bad at all was just a little cold from not facing much action all night. Wunder has showed great promise, as he will be the full fledge starter next season with Chapin heading off to college. Erik Rinehold, Colin Gannon, Phil Herring and Nick Burkhart kept the shots limited and had a solid defensive effort. It was a shock to see Rinehold go pointless, but he was more focused on the defensive end of things. Forward Matt Topely had a very good game, as his work ethic showed on the scoreboard. Topely roofed a goal set up by Mike Hlatky and Bear (Andrew Patterson). Topely had a good overall performance as he finished with that goal and also assisted two goals for a three point night. Ken Mccormick kept his point streak going as he registered an assist and played a very solid physical game. Sean Harlow displayed great passing all night and was rewarded for it as he helped Matt Mager score three of his five goals. William Tennent showed some life late in the second period as they cut the score to a 2-4 deficet after trailing 4-0 but the Falcons getting a goal at the end of the second and three in the third buried the game as the Falcons prevailed 8-2.
