Koerner's Energy- Speed Leads Eagles

11/21/2009

Five unanswered goals propelled the Burke Catholic Eagles to a 7-4 victory over Lakeland /Panas.

Junior Josh Koerner continued his fine play,scoring his second hat trick of the season, while senior Jay Healey registered a goal and three assists. Junior Richard Hudzig, sophomore Connor Dolanski , and freshman Nicholas Musco rounded out the scoring for the Eagles. (Connor and Nick's goals were the first of their careers.)

Sophomore goaltender Eric Hayden continued to impress with a fine 25 save effort.

The young defensive unit of Liam Hatch, Yale Gropman, Conner Dolanski, Alex Day, led by Co-Capt Dillon Dolanski are improving with each shift.

Despite the loss of 20 seniors over the past two seasons , the young Eagles seem fit and ready to take on the challenges of the new season. With a tough Holiday weekend on tap, including last year's state regional opponent Salmon River on Friday, they will have their work cut out for them.
