A Close One
In their second game in less than 24 hours, Westminster faced off against Pomfret at home. The Martlets were a little slow out of the chute in this one and quickly found themselves down 2-0 when Pomfret netted two just :45 apart just four minutes into the period. The first 18 were not pretty. Ryan Pineault ’20 galvanized some spirit with a great play around the wing and defense in Pomfret’s zone to net one and bring the game within one. The Martlets found their legs and some grit in the second and carried the play for the duration of the period. Darion Benchich ‘20 scored to tie the game. With continued resolve, Jake Monroe ‘20 buried a rebound in the third to give Westminster the 3-2 lead. Pomfret continued to press, but Westminster was able to fire one into an empty net with just over one minute to play. Pomfret, not to be outdone, cut the lead to one and kept it interesting. To make matters worse, they also went on a PP with under a minute, and Pomfret went up 6-4 after pulling their goalie. Westminster stood strong and battled, and were able to escape with a victory. Close one! Loomis is up next.
