In an excellent hockey game in Exeter the Spartans were able to tie the 98 Vipers 5-5 with a late goal in the third in a game that contained plenty of high intensity and end to end action. The Vipers used 5 different goal scorers in this one and scored the tying and go ahead goal just 9 seconds apart in the third after trailing 4-3 to begin the third. Aaron Dollin and Christian Kukas both scored from the point as well in this one, as Kyle Lynch (1-1-2) fed a nice pass out to Kukas for his goal. Braden Haley tied the game at 4 as he benefited from a sweet give by Brendan White from behind the net and Haley deposited it high into the net as the Rinks erupted with the tying goal, and just 9 seconds later after taking a feed from Dante Maribito on the half wall Lynchie walked in and roofed one under the bar to take the lead. Evan Daddario finished off a nice rebound to put the visitors up 2-1 going into the second period with JT Chamberlain picking up an assist. Alex Dlevento also picked up an assist giving him 4 points for the weekend. The story of the game had to be the excellent goaltending effort turned in by Nick Fiorentino all morning as he made many fine stops, his biggest on a breakaway with the score tied at 5 and just 45 seconds left in the game. Ryan Connearney, Steven Tettoni and Patrick McCarthy played solid on the blue line.
