Melkonian mvp 23 for 24 on faceoffs but credit to set they showed a lot of heart played so close with only winning 1 faceoff

Mirror opposite of last year…. Definitely a credit to them for keeping it so close. Cyclones vs EI should be a great matchup

According to BLaxeight.com, South Side had zero assists. Not good going forward vs. EI.

SS definitely had a couple assisted goals so the stats are wrong. Melkonian had one just before the half.

Had someone asked me after Thursday night, I would have said EI is the best team on LI. But I was very impressed by SS’s athleticism as they went after the Manhasset poles with a ton of success from the 2nd Q on. Thought Set waited to long to adjust to that.

X-Factor is Faceoffs.
Melkonian has lost 3 face-offs and is at 94% in the Nassau playoffs. EI doesn’t have a FOGO and is using the LSM Kalinowski to muck it up.

Has anyone seen east islip play? Game at Hofstra Wednesday 630

I've seen them several times. They're excellent; possibly the best 1st midfield on LI. They're very deep, and all 6 players on offense are threats. Very well coached. How they deal with Melkonian at the face-off x will be key. They get excellent wing play, and they're relentless off the ground.

Not the answer Klaxman was looking for....

Don’t forget their goalie. Walendowski is excellent; a D1 commit (Villanova). He could be the difference in the game. South Side cannot afford to take weak shots.

Will see….. south side got some kids that can play too who ever is better that day

[xcoach]

I've seen SouthSide too. The B game should be a great matchup, and a lot of fun to watch. It's nice to see some new teams in the spotlight.

[OFOSHO]

Have you ever heard of Garden City?

Possible he has not. First post re: L.I. and 5th overall. Someone may be having a bit of “fun”.

I wasn’t having fun…just felt Manhasset had a coin toss chance against GC.

But you two are the experts.

Well I didn't get my county championship. Have to settle for back to back national championships. Go Irish!

P.S. thanks flyerfan for all the players.

[kr522]

Congrats on your irish….that 3rd goal by Kavanagh was pretty sick

Haha, maybe the best team I've seen in a long time. Certainly the most dominant I can remember. Congrats

I haven’t seen any of Half Hollow Hills this year but I looked up their stats to see what Farmingdale would be up against - holy moly, these are some eye popping numbers. Nearly 200 goals just from three players? Sheesh, it could be a long day tomorrow for the Dalers, hopefully their defense is up for it.

Thanks! Honestly it's a big credit to the Chaminade program. They're good kids, they play hard, and they're winners. We're fortunate to have such a pipeline.

Keep in mind that they play a much weaker schedule than Farmingdale due to Suffolk's dumb league structure and lack of ability to schedule more than 2 non league games.

That being said yeah those guys are every bit as good as advertised.

Predictions for today:

Hills 12, Farmingdale 5
South Side 11, EI 10
Wantagh 9, BBP 8
CSH 10, Babylon 2
