16 National Take the First USHL Challenge Championship

Sep 7, 2013

Hackensack,

It took 3 games on the last day, a shootout and 2 come from behind wins, and the U16 National team won the first ever USHL Atlantic Challenge. First a win over Applecore 3-2 in the AM put the Titans in the semi finals. In the semis the Devils Youth took a early lead, but the Titans tied it 1-1 late and after scoreless OT it went to a shootout. Mike Cenero was up to the task, and after 8 rounds, the Titans were victorious.

In the Finals, the Titans went down 1-0 and 2-1 to a very talented LI Gulls team, only to come back to win 4-2. Matt Kidney tied the game and Brendan Ban had the game winner. 

A great way to start the season boys!
