The Sleepy Hollow/Irvington Legends split the last two games.
Â
On Thursday, February 4th at the Palisades Mall, The Legends came from a 6-3 deficit late in the 3rd period to rally for 4 unanswered goals, beating Clarkstown South 7-6. Junior Defensemen Dennis Sullivan got the rally going with some timely body checks and Junior Captain John Garro scored the game winner with 30 seconds left.
Â
On Saturday night, February 6th, at the Westchester Skating Academy, the Legends played one of their rivals Mt. Pleasant. Since the Sleepy/Irvington merger the Legends have owned the series 2-0, but this was Mt. Pleasant’s year. Despite inspired play by Jake Warren, Matt Praino and Kyle McGovern, the Legends found themselves down 3-2 late in the game, and an attempt to pull the goaltender for the extra attacker couldn’t result in any goals and Mt. Pleasant scored the empty net finisher with a second left to play.
