REVIEW: 26th Annual State Tournaments, March 1 and 2,
Nationwide Arena, Columbus
Hunting Valley
University School (25-11-4) won its first state championship as it held off defending
champ and the state leader in hockey titles, Lakewood St. Edward, 2-1. Senior forward Curt
Kassigkeit’s second-period goal broke a 1-all tie and junior goalie John Sideris made
23 saves to give the Preppers the title. Junior wing Larry Germovsek had the first goal
for University, while senior center Jim McClain had the goal for St. Edward (24-8-2). St.
Edward, winners of eight state championships, had won three of the five regular season
meetings between the two schools.
University
reached the finals by stopping state tournament newcomer Worthington Thomas Worthington in
the semifinals, 6-1. Kassigkeit recorded a hat trick to lead the way, and Sideris stopped
12 shots on goal. The Preppers broke open a 1-all game by scoring five goals in the second
period. St. Edward overcame a 2-0 first period deficit, then saw senior wing Pete Antoske
break a 3-all tie with a goal with 12.4 second remaining to give the Eagles a 5-3 win over
Bowling Green. St. Edward added an empty-net goal following Antoske’s heroics. Senior
goalie Kyle Rudman had 26 saves for St. Ed.
