This contest was about defense. Committed to shutting down their opponent , the Burke boys aggressively forchecked in the offensive zone and smothered any offensive chances by the young NFA team.
The total shots on net ( Burke 45-NFA 15) pretty much indicated the the Eagles control of the game.
Greg Brushett, Ross Flood , Alex Pizzano, Chris Reinfried , Jayson Healey , each contributed one goal in the victory.
