Will Play UMBC For America East Championship on Sunday - Go Seawolves!!!
After 110 minutes of scoreless play, senior Collin
Geoghegan (Lindenhurst, N.Y.) and Hartford’s Carlos Villa connected on their
attempts, as did freshman Berian Gobeil (Montreal, Quebec) and Bojan
Delibasic. Hawks keeper Nenad Cudic saved sophomore Serigne Sylla’s (New
York, N.Y.) attempt, setting up a must-save from Rogic, and he was up to the
task, matching Cudic’s save to keep the shootout at 2-2.
Leis, who did not play in regulation or overtime, scored to
give the Seawolves the edge. Sam Groves came on to take Hartford’s attempt, but
his shot hit the left post and bounded away. Freshman Leonardo Fernandes (North Babylon, N.Y.) took Stony Brook’s fifth and final attempt, but his
shot was saved, giving Hartford one last chance. But Rogic, who posted a 0.60
during conference play, stoned Perinchief to give the Seawolves their first
appearance in the finals since winning it in 2005.
Rogic made six saves in the game, including a point-blank stop
on Hartford’s Cedomir Tomcic in double overtime. Cudic finished with seven
saves.
In the regular season meeting
against the Retrievers, they topped the Seawolves, 2-0. Stony Brook is 4-2
against UMBC under head coach Cesar Markovic and has never lost to the
Retrievers at home in three previous matches.
