Westminster Thirds Get Close Again Against Salisbury

The boys came out against a Salisbury team that put a 8-0 beating on them just a few weeks ago, and showed just how far they've come. A 0-0 first period before Salisbury opened the scoring against a screened Rich Mugler '22, who had one of his strongest games in an already strong season. Salisbury put in one more, and a "too-many-men" penalty put Westminster in quite a hole opening the third period. The game plan was to kill off the penalty, score and quickly take ahold of the momentum going into the second half of the third period. The boys did just that. Moments after gaining even strength, Charlie von Stade '21 found line mate Kendrick Freeman '21 in the neutral zone, and Kendrick buried it behind the Salisbury goalie to bring the score to 2-1. With everything going our way, the Martlets shot themselves in the foot with a few bad penalties that, while miraculously killed off, left the team with just under two minutes to even things up. A 6-on-4 opportunity with Mugler pulled presented a few close chances at the end of the game before a loose puck found its way onto the stick of a Salisbury forward, who passed it into the empty net. The Martlets will continue to look for their first win Monday against Fairfield Country Day.
