2012 National Invitational Scholastic Showcase  ~ Jamestown, New York 

Culver Academy proved in the 2012 National Invitational Scholastic Showcase that defense is the winning recipe for Championship Hockey to capture the Governor’s Cup.

The Eagles defeated University School of Ohio 3-1 in the title game at Jamestown Savings Bank Arena. Logan Badelich broke a 1-1 tie late in the 2^nd period and Luke Israel added an insurance goal early in the 3^rd period for the difference. John Eansor’s 5^th goal of the tournament gave Culver the lead in the opening period and US’s Clarke Jones tied the game at one apiece at 6:05 of the 1^st period. 

Culver avenged a defeat to Ontario Hockey Academy a year ago in the finals by defeating West Allegheny Pa, Gilmour Academy Ohio and Fenwick Illinois to reach the Semi-Finals. The Eagles blanked Holy Ghost Prep of Eastern Pa 2-0 to reach the finals. University School defeated Ontario Hockey Academy in overtime, Bethel Park Pa and DeMatha Maryland to earn a spot against rival St Edwards in the Semi-Finals. The Preppers knocked off the Eagles 3-2 in an overtime thriller to win a spot in the championship game.
