FOWLER 5, MALONE 2
The Section X Class A Champion Malone Huskies opened a
2-1 lead at the half, but Section III Fowler used its
speed game and blitzed for three quick goals over a
six-minute span in the second half to take the lead for
good in defeating the Huskies 5-2 in the New York State
Class A Region II Semifinal held at Liverpool High
School. Aaron Sharlow got Franklin Academy started
early, setting up Dan Badgley for the game’s first goal.
After Fowler tied the contest 1-1, Sharlow converted the
second goal from Connor Bailey. The Huskies continued to
contain the Falcons for the next 20 minutes, until a
blast of goals turned the game around. “The boys played
great, the best they had all season. We kept them under
control,” said Franklin Academy Coach Kim Depuy. “But
they started to kick the ball deep, over our heads. And
they (the Falcons) were so fast. We fell back, but the
ran past us and scored those three quick goals,” Depuy
told North Country SportsNet. “We came in wanting to
give them a game and we did for 60 minutes. I was so
proud of the boys.” Austin Lamay also made several key
stops in a 19-save performance to keep the Huskies in
the game. Malone finished its 2012 campaign at 13-4-1.
