Also included: > Top 5 fans of Interscholastic Hockey in > Top 5 Future Young Studs (Freshman) > Top 7 Coaching Performances Only on Pa Hockey !

NEVILLE ISLAND - Upper St Clair has had a roller coaster season and head coach Warren Young's squad knew it had to come up big against a North Hills squad which has struggled of late. The Indians have not put the puck in the net which has led to a slump. David Andrews of USC looked to add to the North Hills frustration as the Panther goaltender thwarted some early chances by controlling his rebounds. Then the Panthers got the break they needed as Justin Lloyd found a seam in the Indian defense and beat Casey Dudt-Mulzet at 8:31 to give USC a 1-0 lead. North Hills came right back as Jake Congalton was part of a two on one and while the USC defender covered the back side, Andrews made the save against Congalton to preserve a one goal advantage at 7:04. Then it was Lloyd again on the off wing ring a wrister off the far post and Brandon Burns collected the rebound and fired it into an empty net to give the Panthers a 2-0 lead. Now in a hole, the Indians received several power plays chances throughout the 2nd and 3rd period, but Andrews came up with several key stops to preserve the shutout and give Upper St Clair a huge 2-0 victory and new life in the quest for the 12th and final PIHL AAA playoff spot.
