Rios went on to make 30 saves, but the Purple Ghosts were outscored by the Sandstoners 3-1 in the New York State Girls Hockey semifinals. Grant put Potsdam up 1-0 in the first period.  With 5:46 left in the middle frame, Amanda Lingenfelter tied the contest on a power-play goal, before Kalie Grant scored twice to salt the game away for the defending champion Sandstoners.  Kelsey Green and Sierra Gagnon assisted on the go-ahead goal.  The final Potsdam goal was unassisted at 8:35 of the third.  Potsdam outshot Alexandria Bay 34-8.  Allie Compeau made 7 saves.

Beekmantown’s Kallie Villemaire (13) gains possession of the puck during the third period of the NYS Championship in Canton.  The Beekmantown Eagles have finally captured the elusive New York State Girls Ice Hockey Championship with a 3-0 shutout of defending champion Potsdam, in a game broadcast on North Country SportsNet. For Coach Ray Guay, the relief at finally winning the “big one” was tremendous. And the elation for his daughter Alexis, who scored the game’s first goal at 8:06 of the first period, was also tremendous. Her skates almost seemed not to touch the ice as she raced back to the bench in celebration. Emily Raville set up the goal with an across-the-crease pass right on to Guay’s stick on the backside of the play, left open by Potsdam’s overshift toward the puck. The same pair connected in reverse on the second goal at 3:14 of the second period. Raville poked at the puck at the side of the Potsdam net. The referee was the first to signal the puck’s crossing the line on the 14th Eagles shot on goal. The next shot-on-goal came just a short time later as Katie Matott broke free behind the Potsdam defense and, alone on goaltender Allie Compeau, wristed home a third marker that would knock the Sandstoners on their heels. The teams has been tied in shots on goal, 13-13, before the two scores. Beekmantown did not allow Potsdam another shot over the last period and a half, outshooting the Sandstoners 31-13. Compeau made 28 saves for Potsdam. Kaleigh Bell stopped all 13 shots for Beekmantown.   (John LaRue photos)

N.Y.S. SemiS: Beekmantown HOLDS OFF Kenmore 3-2


Kenmore East goalie Lauren Pray (7) and forward Jill Battista sprawl to cover the puck in a frantic finish to the first period. Bell handled 40 saves in the New York State Girls Hockey semifinals, but still fell short to the Beekmantown Eagles 3-2.  After Peterson's first-period goal, the Bulldogs evened the score in the second period when Jill Battista raced in on the right wing and flung a shot the right shoulder of Eagles' keeper Kayleigh Bell at 2:44.  On a setup from Kiley Regan, Katie Matott answered at 9:20 of the frame to boost the Eagles back into the lead 2-1.  Beekmantown got a much-needed insurance goal early in the third period, scored by Emily Raville, assisted by Peterson and Alexis Guay.  However, Kenmore East made it interesting at the end when Shannon Munley squeaked in a goal at the right post.  Perhaps the save of the game was made by the Eagles' defenseman Lauren O'Connor who raced back to cleanly poke the puck away on a breakaway that could have tied the contest late in the game.  Bell stopped nine of 11 shots.
