Mt Lebanon -
A matchup between Canevin and Greensburg CC always has playoff implications. Centarians coach Butch Marrietta and Crusaders coach Greg Timmons own six Pennsylvania State Championships between them (3 apiece) and are no strangers to big games.
This matchup is a tale of two teams heading in what seems like different directions. While Canevin is licking its wounds with injuries to star players Dane Hetland and Justin Holzer, GCC is starting to rev up the engines for a playoff run.
Discipline would be the story early in this game as the shorthanded Crusaders took a couple of ill-advised penalties in the first period. Maunee George scored on the power play at 7:21 taking a point blank feed from Tom Talamo to make it 1-0. Colin Ludwig added to the lead on a beautiful cross crease pass from Matt Ward at 2:16.
Canevin dug a deeper hole as Regis McGrath was issued a double minor and a ten minute misconduct. GCC made the Crusaders pay as Pat Bates and Matt Ward scored a little over a minute apart and suddenly the Centarians were up 4-0. Ludwig then picked the pocket of the Canevin defense and fed Ward at the side of the net to make it 5-0.
At the other end Jake Genes made several nice stops in trying to earn a shutout, but Rick Nolte finally got Canevin on the board with 1:35 left to make the final 5-1 in favor of GCC. Pat Smith, the Canevin goaltender, was spectacular at times and held his team in the game.
