AIC tried to mount a second half surge, but were doubled-up by the Beacons in the third 6-3.  The final frame saw the Beacons earn a slim 3-2 advantage in scoring to cap-off one of the best regular seasons in recent memory.

Along with Lenfest's dominant performance, the Beacons attack also saw Darragh Fahey (Walpole, Mass.) and Donovan Prozinski (Ashland, Mass.) continue their strong play.  Fahey, registered five goals and had three assists, while Prozinski finished with four goals and four assists.
