Gianni Lochiatto of North Allegheny famous after marking the Seneca valley during their class 3A semi-final of the Penguins Cup on Monday, March 11, 2024, in RMU.
While the PIAA basketball qualifiers take leave between the first and second round, the washer falls during the first of the four nights of the action of the High School Hockey Final on Monday.
Class 3A hockey all season has been competitive and to be won throughout the regular season, so it should not be surprising that the quarter -finals 3A did not go as planned.
Yes, the n ° 1 of Seneca Valley and the n ° 3 of North, Allegheny, moved, but the n ° 2 the MT. Lebanon and the n ° 4 Thomas Jefferson were rebounded in the open-premises class 3A.
Expect the unexpected in the semifinals 3A on Monday at the Robert Morris Island Sports Center on the island of Neville with the two games on the HSSN Trib.
When the semi-final opened, the n ° 1 of Seneca Valley (14-5-2-0) will face n ° 5 Upper St. Clair (10-9-1-1) at 7.15 p.m.
During their first playoff game, Seneca Valley eliminated Pine-Richland, 3-1.
Cooper Hoehn, Jimmy Murtha and Owen Martin all scored for the Raiders, and the goalkeeper Christopher Nichols arrested 24 of the 25 shots.
In the quarter-finals, Upper St. Clair preceded Thomas Jefferson, 5-4.
Eli Rankin and Ryan Buonomo each scored two goals for the Panthers, and Dylan Yealy counted what would be the winning goal in the third period.
Seneca Valley beat Upper St. Clair twice in the regular season by a goal, winning in early October, 4-3, and again at the start of the Revenge match, 2-1.
The last glass of the 3A semi-final in the semi-final n ° 3 North Allegheny (10-8-3-0) against n ° 7 South Fayette (8-9-3-1) at 9:15 p.m.
Last Monday, South Fayette amazed a team from the Mardon Leban who was in first place for the majority of the regular season, 6-1.
Nathaniel Keller scored twice and Robert Chiappetta added three assists for the Lions, while SF Netminder Jackson Ankrum made 29 stops on 30 shots on goal.
A day later, North Algheny bleached the central Catholic at the end of the final 3A, 1-0.
Gianni Lochiatto scored the only goal of the Tigers match in the second period while Na Cam Junker’s goalkeeper stopped the 20 shots he faced for laundering.
