Arizona 19, Colorado 9
It what was the first major upset of the Dr. Tom Watts Memorial U-19
tournament Arizona pounded Colorado into the ground. Colorado’s defense
couldn’t slow down a powerful attack combo of Wilson and Moore. The
two attackmen from Western Reserve Academy in Ohio combined for thirteen
of Arizona’s nineteen goals.
Arizona attacked the goal in multiple ways exposing serious flaws
in the Colorado defense. Arizona got many good looks from the middle
of the field. After missing several chances early, Arizona was able
to settle down was able to finish many of their opportunities during
the rest of the game.
Colorado did a good job early on in the game and was winning 3-1 after
the end of the first quarter. After teams traded goals to start the
2nd Arizona unleashed their full offensive fury and scored six unanswered
goals to give them an 8-4 halftime lead. Arizona extended their lead
to six after the 3rd and iced the game with a five goal fourth quarter.
Arizona will have a tough match up with Baltimore tomorrow for the
Division I championship. Arizona has done a good job of possessing
the ball and with their excellent face-off group can really control
the tempo of the game. Their offense is extremely talented and should
give them the ability to win them the game if they can get a very
deep Baltimore out of their game.
Baltimore 7, Ohio 6
In by far the most exciting game of the tourney, Baltimore was able
to hold of a hard charging Ohio team to advance to the championship.
It was a remarkably intense game that was a nail biter right to the
end.
These two evenly matched teams fought up and down the field for four
quarters with both teams not giving an inch. Both defenses played
well and every possession was very valuable in this tight game.
Ohio made a couple of serious runs at the Baltimore Crabs and even
was able to tie the score at 5-5. They were just unable to overcome
Baltimore’s depth and early lead.
For the Crabs, Reed had another solid performance scoring three goals.
In net for Baltimore, Chris has a good game stopping eight shots.
He helped cleared the ball sixteen time successfully for the crabs
and is making a strong case for making the All Tournament Team.
Baltimore will go into tomorrow’s game as the odds on favorite to
take home the trophy. They should be wary of a talented Arizona team
that shocked Colorado today. The crabs will have to slow down Arizona’s
face-off unit which has been dominant all tournament. If the Crabs
get good possessions they match up favorably with the Arizona defense
and should have a good chance to score a lot of goals.
