Some of the best of the best in American scholastic hockey made their way north of the border over the weekend to compete in the Interscholastic Hockey Alliance Showcase, hosted by the St. Andrew\u2019s Saints varsity squad for the second year.
\nLa Brier Arena on campus filled in to welcome Northwood School (New York), Nichols School (New York), Culver Military Academy (Indiana), Shattuck-St. Mary\u2019s School (Minnesota), and Victory Honda 18U (Michigan).
\nThe Saints marched into action on Friday against the storied Shattuck-St. Mary\u2019s program, playfully referred to as \u201cthe Hogwarts of Hockey\u201d, and alma mater to NHLers like Sidney Crosby and Jonathon Toews.
\nWith scouts from all levels in attendance, the Canadian side came out on top, squeaking out a 5 \u2013 4 victory in what will be the first and only meeting between the two this season. Matthew Stienberg, Jack Agnew, Matthew McKim, Brendan Bowie, and Mark Hillier notched a goal each.
\nSaturday\u2019s matchup didn\u2019t get any easier, with the red and white up against Culver, the top-ranked team in American Independent Prep rankings. Down 4 \u2013 0 late in the second period, Hillier scored the only St. Andrew\u2019s goal of the game on a nice one-on-one deke to get around the final defenseman, waiting out the Culver goalie for a final score of 4 \u2013 1.
\nThey wrapped up Sunday with a 4 \u2013 4 tie with Victory Honda, Steinburg leading the way with a pair of goals, while Andrew Boland and Evan Brisley added singles.
\nCISAA regular season action resumes for the Saints on January 17 against Upper Canada College, where the Saints hold a 5-1-0 record good for second place.
\nThe varsity B team also prepares to host the annual Gary West Hockey Tournament at La Brier this weekend, which has grown to eight teams in its second year. The puck drops at 7:30 Friday evening on teams from Ontario, Quebec, Ohio, and Pennsylvania.<\/p>\n\"Facebook\"<\/a>\"twitter\"<\/a>\"mail\"<\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
