Boxscore
Beverly, Mass. – 14 different players scored for Endicott as the Blue and Green won their The Commonwealth Coast Conference (TCCC) opener, 22-2, over Anna Maria Saturday afternoon. The Gulls led wire-to-wire after jumping out to a 7-0 lead through the first 15 minutes. Sophomore goalie Will Lomas (Weston, Conn.) kept the AMCATS off the board and made one save during that time to pick up the win.
Junior attack Brian Vincent (Norwalk, Conn.) led the way with four goals and one assist while classmate Ryan Tocci (Arlington, Mass.) added a hat-trick. Jonny Kovach (Beachwood, Ohio), Kyle Jordan (Falmouth, Maine), and Doug Bergner (Fairfield, Conn.) each scored twice for the Gulls (2-1), winners of two straight after opening the season with a loss.
Anna Maria (0-2) was led by Andrew Biscardi (Wantagh, N.Y.), who tallied a goal and an assist to go along with a team-high six ground balls. Jaron Dalbeck (Princeton, Mass.) added a goal in the setback.
Endicott peppered the net with 63 shots and put 40 on target. Anna Maria’s Andrew Ellis (Fitchburg, Mass.) made 18 stops in the loss.
Greg Dunlavey (Ballston Spa, N.Y.) opened the scoring less than three minutes in with an unassisted goal. Vincent doubled the lead eight seconds later with his first of the day, thanks to Sam Ozycz’s (Cheshire, Conn.) faceoff win and assist.
Endicott poured in 11 more goals in the opening half and took a 13-0 lead into the break. Vincent scored two straight coming out of the half before freshman Chris Janelle’s (Falmouth, Maine) goal with 6:20 to go in the third made it 16-0.
Dalbeck put the AMCATS on the board with 4:11 remaining in the quarter but the Gulls responded with two of their own, one by Brendan Hunter (Medford, Mass.) and another by Chris Murphy (Holden, Mass.) to extend the lead. Kovach and Bergner each scored twice in the final 15 minutes before Biscardi’s tally in the closing seconds capped the scoring for both sides.
