Congratulations to the King-Philip U13 Warriors, our 2011 U13 Champions!

 

The FNL U13 Championship was an epic battle ending in a 5-4  double overtime victory for KP.

Franklin came to play and came very close to putting  an end to KPs undefeated season, they controlled the game for 3 ¾ quarters .

Franklin put KP down for the first time this season and made KP play from behind for the first time this season.  KP tied the game 1-1 but shortly after Franklin went up 2-1 and that was the score at the end of 1.  The 2nd quarter was a good battle with KP tying the game 2-2 then Franklin taking the lead 3-2 KP put one in before the end of the half.  Half time score 3-3.

In the third Franklin continued to control the pace of the game netting a goal and taking the lead 4-3 and that was the score at the end of 3.  In the fourth the game went back and forth but KPs Defense held off Franklins Offense.  The game remained 4-3 till about 2 ½ minutes to go when KP netted the tying goal.  With the game tied at the end of regulation in to overtime we went KP control the ball in the first overtime hitting the post but at the end of 4mins game was still 4-4.  On to OT 2 Franklin went early on the faceoff giving the ball to KP with that KP went on to score the winning goal.  This was a great game with both teams giving everything they had.

U13 SEMI-FINAL PREVIEW

 

King-Philip vs Westwood

This is a seed 1 v seed 4 game. The most disparate records in the playoffs; KP is a 6-0 team, Westwood a 3-3 team. The game results aren’t the real story here, the real story is found in the statistics and by all accounts King-Philip is a monster of a team, doling out beat downs as if the other teams owe them cash. Digest this for a second, KP has found the back of the cage 70 times this season while only allowing 8 goals. Eight. An average of 1.3 goals per game while killing the cage on the other end with almost 12 goals per game.

Westwood is going to have to become very aggressive offensively if they are to overcome the stingy KP defense. The Wolverines are a very balanced team, they’ve averaged nearly 6 goals per game, but they’ve also allowed an average just over 5 goals per game. Shutting down the KP offensive is a task unto itself, but finding the back of the cage will be the real test.

The last time these teams met, it was a 10-2 game in favor of KP. Westwood wants to return the favor.

Prediction: Warriors, and a long ride back to Wolverine town.

 

Franklin vs Walpole

By rights this should be the closer game in the semi-finals, however the last time these teams met at Beaver Street it was a 15-0 rout by the Panthers. Has Walpole learned anything since that game earlier in the season?

Looking at the numbers, Franklin leans towards being a very offensive team averaging almost 11 goals per game while Walpole appears to allow more than 6 goals per game. Walpole has actually allowed more goals than they’ve put up with a 35:38 ratio.

Walpole has gained some confidence and should find the cage this time around, but the Panthers are also on a 4 game winning streak and they’ve rested with their last game on 5/6.

Prediction: Panthers, Rebels start their golfing season early.
