What are your predictions??

I think IH 9 St. X 6... IH's offense has been peaking latley and their D will not let X do much all game.. High scoring 1st half and all defense second half thats how the game will go
 
 
IH could never really get anything going offensively. X stayed on top of them throughout the game and then starting laying it on in the 4th quarter. Alot of fast break and unsettled situations were a key to X's scoring, especially in the 4th. Alot of questionable calls by the refs, i think Cincy refs really should lighten up on some of their calls, if you go out to the east coast you would see that they let the kids play alot more than they do here, thats definatly an issue that should be addressed by the OHSLA. Especially when the refs are throwing flags, when the spot of the foul is 60 yards away from where they are standing.
 
Somebody lit a fire under Blake Stanislaw. He had six goals and four or five assists, I'm not sure. Carroll and Camp kept throwing him these brilliant feeds and he did a great job of finishing them.

Luke Kuechly owned the faceoff X...just dominated it.

Tom Littel played a ---- of a game in goal for the Bombers.

That was an impressive win. It was 6-4 at the half. Second half, Bombers were just ON FIRE.
 
i agree with you on everything you said except for luke. he had an off-night tonight on his faceoffs...didn't come even close to dominating. IH's face off guy was within 2 faces of luke when the game was over. he still played a solid game though....good defense from him and he worked the ball around well. kudos to blake on a great night. its about time he showed up. as you said, awesome game for tom littel...he played superb. also, i thought saelinger played exceptionally well tonight.

last but not least.....i think grift had the hat trick didnt he? or was it just two goals? either way, he made the most of his time in there tonight. congrats to him as well.

Is that right... I confess to losing interest at times in the second half as I got caught up in conversations (and the score rolled up):thumb:

also, i thought saelinger played exceptionally well tonight.
As did Holbrook, and Reilly. And was it my imagination or did Collura play the 2nd middie line a little more? I know I saw Martin poking around. The whole team just seemed to get after it the second half.

He has gotten faster. Combined with his size and that booming shot, he could be a potent force for the Bombers next year.

Tell you who else had a nice game: Kyle Johns. Still needs to work on the stick a little, but dang, what an athlete.
 
:clap: Congratulations to Bombers on the big win vs. IH in the rematch. Expected them to win but thought this would be a tighter contest.

Not to take anything away from St. X but the Braves did not play as well as I expected them to last night. Lots of turnovers on clears and in transition really cost them momentum and any chance of getting offense going. They also missed ALOT of shots, particularly after the first quarter where Littel looked very good. Keriakis and Bolser for IH both had lots of looks at the cage and just missed high or wide... I don't think IH EMO was able to score once as they turned ball over 2 or 3 times. Alot of feeds to the crease area were also dropped leading to turnovers. IH goalie Krall played well given he was getting shelled all night.

Keuchly looked good for X but struggled a bit against Lappin IMO. Looked great when Lappin went out hurt. Stanislaw had a huge night- beating his d-pole around the cage and scoring easily several times or getting open for feeds. IH never adjusted or found a way to slow him down as he did this all game long. St. X also showed a lot of hustle, beating IH to ground balls all over the field.

Nice win for X... better strap up for Saturday!
 
Luke Kuechly did not dominate i beat him every time but 3...the first and a nuetral zone infraction and once when his wing man got the ball.... and i had a sprained ankle
