Wentworth Continues Where They Left Off With Dundas

Wentworth and Dundas met for the second consecutive week at Harry Howell Arena on Thursday night, and the Gryphins kept piling up goals just as they had a week earlier. They defeated the McCoys 9-3, with six of the goals coming in the opening period. Joshua Cacciola, Owen Norton and Riley MacRae each picked up three points in the win.

Before fans and players could settle in, Matt MacLeod scored his fifth of the season a minute into the game to give the Gryphins an early lead. Wentworth kept scoring at will, getting goals from Ryan Foss, Remy Giftopoulos and Kyle Lewis to go up 4-0 at 12:37 of the period.

Nolan Sheeran got Dundas on the board at 14:21 with his second of the year, but just under a minute later Tyler VanKleef restored the four-goal cushion for the home side. Anthony Luciani’s marker at 18:13 made it 6-1 before the period ended.

In the second, the McCoys’ Darien Kielb scored twice, at 4:50 and 14:12, to cut the Wentworth lead to 6-3. The Gryphins closed out the game with three goals in the third from Cacciola, Lewis and Norton.

Dundas’s Brad Bonello picked up an assist while playing in his 100th career ACHL game.

Mike Mole took the loss, allowing nine goals on 47 shots. For the Gryphins, Joe Murdaca earned his fourth win of the year, making 38 saves on 41 shots.

The Gryphins (4-0-0-0) and McCoys (0-4-0-0) meet again on Thursday, November 19th at Harry Howell Arena, the third straight week the teams will face each other. Puck drop is set for 7:30 pm.
