2011 Pennsylvania High School Hockey Championships Class AA – Canevin Crusaders 4 Council Rock Golden Hawks 1The Council Rock South Golden Hawks (24-4-1) defeated Suburban League rival Central Bucks East 5-2 in the Flyers Cup AA championship to capture their 2nd Flyers Cup in three years. The Golden Hawks reached the Pennsylvania Finals in 2009 and gave Latrobe a tussle falling in the final minutes 3-2. CR South lost in the Flyers Cup a year ago to Downingtown East and fell just short of gaining the Pennsylvania Championship three straight years.
Canevin’s (19-4-0) journey to the State Finals began many years ago when the club took a shot at putting a Developmental Program together to ensure the future and to keep its winning tradition, which includes 3 Pennsylvania Class AA Titles in 1983, 1984 and 1989. The drought of gaining the Pennsylvania finals for 18 years, when the Crusaders fell to Father Judge is now over, but not without drama of losing three consecutive years at Mellon Arena in the Penguins Cup Semi-Finals prior to winning the Penguins Cup over Peters Township 5-2. The Crusaders dethroned 3-Time Pennsylvania champs Latrobe 2-1 in overtime in the Semis. Canevin is looking for their 4th Pennsylvania Title, which would surpassed Thomas Jefferson and Peters Twp and give the Crusaders AA supremacy in the history of Pennsylvania Champions.
The first big save of the hockey game came at 12:36 of the opening period as Steve Jastrow stoned Canevin’s Peter Karney. Both teams played a wide open style and had some good chances, the best at 5:32 as Jastrow again stopped Frankie Vance. After the Crusaders Frankie Vance missed at the other end, the Hawks Zack Goodman gathered the rebound and skated the puck down the right side and exercise d great patience and shelf a wrist shot up under the crossbar to give CR South a 1-0 lead. Shots were tied at 7 apiece.
CR South had a chance to make it 2-0 at 13:56, but Canevin survived. The Hawks were whistled at 12:26 after a great effort by Canevin’s Ricky McNulty. Matt Walsh hit the post and less than a minute later at 10:44, Nick Hart scored from on the doorstep to knot the game at 1-1. Zack Daley got into the act stopping Kyle Walter at 9:27 from right in front. Seconds later Franke Vance got loose on the breakaway and C South was whistled putting the Crusaders on the power play at 9:17. The Hawks Patrick Grilli got behind the Canevin defense and Daley came up big again at 9:01. At 7:10, Nick Keck, took a great feed from Grilli, Daley was equal to the task with a great glove save.
End to end action and Frank Vance didn’t have to shoot this time as he found Matt Walsh alone and he beat Jastrow with four second to go for a huge goal and 2-1 lead at the ice cut. Canevin outshot CR South 15-11.
CR South went on the power play 12:45, but could not score. Zack Daley stopped Tom Kozlar at 9:39 on a wide open opportunity. CR South threw the kitchen sink and Canevin, who bent but would not break. Kevin Zielmanski called a timeout with 6:18 to go. Canevin’s defense and depth strengthened down the stretch and when Matt Walsh scored into empty net with 59 seconds to give Canevin a 3-1 lead, it sealed the fate of CR South and a 4th Pennsylvania State title for the Crusaders. Peter Karney added another ENG with 27 seconds to go to make the final 4-1 in favor of Canevin, capping an unreal run for the Crusaders through the Penguins Cup playoffs and into the State Final. Zack Daley, the goaltender, from that Little Crusaders program founded a few years ago would be the unsung hero of this State Championship game.

2011 Pennsylvania High School Hockey Championships Class AAA – LaSalle Explorers 3 Upper St Clair Panthers 4 (OT)Upper St Clair (16-6-1) began playing hockey in 1970 at the Alpine Ice Chalet in the Western Pennsylvania and has run a pretty good hockey program over 40 years. The Panthers have a pretty accomplished record in Pennsylvania State Finals, wining their first in 1980 over Erie McDowell and then again in 1987, with an undefeated season and State Championship victory over Malvern Prep. Their setbacks in the State Finals include a loss to undefeated Conestoga and former coach Taylor Railton in 1986 and a loss to Malvern Prep in 1990 by the score of 6-3. The Panthers are on a roll in the 2011 Playoffs with wins over 2010 Penguins Cup champions Canon McMillan and the last Western Pennsylvania AAA North Allegheny [2007] and a victory over # 1 seed Fox Chapel.
LaSalle (23-5-2) under Wally Muehlbronner has been an outstanding hockey program winning the Pennsylvania crown for the first time in 1998, after losing to Meadville in 1996. The Explorers are on a roll in the Pennsylvania AAA Finals winning in 2008 over Pine Richland and in 2009 over Shaler and are looking to make it 3 titles in four years. LaSalle has dominate the Flyers Cup landscape over the past half dozen years and has done so playing an extended schedule against State Champions from Ohio, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Connecticut and the top teams in New Jersey.
LaSalle power play 14:24 and could not score and then at 10:31 of the opening period Nick Popoff got his own rebound and deposited a shot past Michael Ambrose to give the Explorers a 1-0 lead. During the first USC power play freshman goaltender Nick DeSimone made several fine saves. Upper St Clair’s best chance came at 1:52 as DeSimone stoned C.J. Murray with a spectacular glove save. The Panthers went on the power play with under a minute to go in the first period and with 39 seconds to go C.J. Murray took a Parker Phillips cross ice pass and went upstairs on the short side over the glove for a power play goal and tied the game at one apiece. Shots were USC 11 LaSalle 10.
The Panthers went back on the power play at 14:23 of the 2nd.and could not score and when given another opportunity C.J. Murray made it count ripping a wrist shot high over the glove side at 6:23 of the middle frame for a 2-1 Panther lead. LaSalle would have an opportunity on the power play at 4:49 of the 2nd and USC was equal to the task killing the disadvantage. With 1:43 to play in the period, the Explorers would have another opportunity to tie the game on the power play and it would nullified as LaSalle’s Ron Greco got caught for interference 17 seconds later. Shots in the 2nd period were USC 16 and LaSalle 12.
The third period LaSalle kept on coming and finally with 6:10 to go the loose puck found its way onto the stick of Sean Orlando who found a rebound and deposited past Michael Ambrose to tie the score 2-2. Just 28 seconds later, Luke Stork sidestepped the LaSalle defenseman and fed Stephen Gierlarowski who poked home the go ahead goal with 5:42 to play and give St Clair a 3-2 lead. With 4:22 to play, the Panthers were whistled and LaSalle would go on the power play with a chance to knot the score. Michael Ambrose stopped Sean Orlando’s backhand at 3:33. Then Orlando found Ron Greco on the backside with 2:54 to play and the game was tied again 3-3. The game would head to overtime.
Upper St Clair would find the loose puck and this time Parker Phillip’s shot from the the right point bobbled and C.J. Murray swooped in and found the loose puck and buried it at 4:31 to give Upper St Clair an improbable finish to a great run with a 4-3 victory over a powerhouse LaSalle team. USC won its third Pennsylvania Class AAA title and first since 1987.
