Weymouth regrouped quickly and held Canton off of the board for the remainder of the period. Midway through the second period, Weymouth’s best scoring opportunity was stuffed when Liz H. made a brilliant left-pad save on a point-blank shot to keep Canton up by one. Finally, Tommy K. gave Canton a little breathing room in the third period when he chased down a clearing pass and broke in alone for a short-handed goal. The defense pairs of Jackson M./Ryan L. and Zach M./Robbie W. were rock-solid all game and forwards Jimmy D., Joey H., Max F., Kevin M., Brian D., Nolan L. and Patrick S. all played solid two-way hockey. Next up is the state championship tournament in March on Cape Cod. Congratulations to the team.
