Game 1 - Blackhawks 4 - Sharks 2The Blackhawks got revenge on the Sharks who knocked them out of the playoffs two seasons ago. With only nine skaters available, everyone stepped up an contributed to this 4-2 victory including a GREAT Game bu the youngest player on the team, Nicholas Micciulli who had 2 assist and the game winner for a goal.
Steve Alfano got the team off to a 1-0 lead directing a pass from Nicky in the slot to score. Marc Moskowitz who has developed an all around game scored to make it 2-0 but the Sharks wouldn't go away and cut the lead in half. Nicky scored to make it 3-1 and back came the Sharks 3-2. Travis Mascitelli who has made a complete turnaraound with his play, ice'd the game for a 4-2 win.
Anthony Mastronardi played another strong game temaed up with Marc Moskowitz to break up broke up several Shark breaks. Tyler Belostock, Mark Powell, Travis, Joe Schoenenberger and Alan Barnstead played well.
This was the first game for Ralph Mazzoni in goal and did a great job stopping 8 shots.
Game 2 - Blackhawks 16 - Yellow Jackets 0 They did it again. 16-0 over the Yellow Jackets for their 2nd victory of the season. The game was highlighted by Tyler Belostock getting his first goal of his career. Ralph Mazonni recorded his second shutout in net.
The defense was incredible giving up only one shot. Rumor has it that the Yellow Jackets are made up of some Hurricanes and this was a payback.
Some of the stars of the game were Steven Alfano, Travis Mascitelli, Alan Barnstead, Timmy Johnson, Joey Schoenenberger, Anthony Mastronardi, Mark Powell and birthday boy, Nicky Micciulli who has turned into an all around player must have taken lessons from his buddy Marc Moskowitz.
Another rumor has it that the Jaguars who were scheduled to play the Blackhawks moved to a different state. We'll see.
Game 3 - Blackhawks ? - Yellow Jackets 0
Tyler Belostock & Tim Johnson were some of the stars this day
each getting 2 goals and 1 assist. Even though there was not
much pressure from the Yellow Jackets, The Blackhawks executed
their game plan to perfection.
There next game should be an interesting one against the
Jaguars. Good luck team.
Did we mention how great they look in their new jerseys?
Marc Moskowitz & Zak Piccoline each chippe din with 2 goals. Tim
Johnson also has shown great improvement recently along with
Steven Alfano and Tyler Belostock.
Good luck against the Sharks.
The team seems to be ready for their second straight championship try as they prepare for the much improved Jaguars lead by Robert Santullo. This will be the biggest game for the young Hawks in their three seasons of play.
Tim Johnson, Travis Mascitelli, Nicky Micciulli, Zak Piccoline, Tyler Belostock and Nicky Micciulli continune to improve big time each and every game.
Best of luck in the championship game.
The BlackHawks got some great goaltending from Jonatan King. Mark Powell, Mark Moskowitz, Nicky Micciulli, Steven Alfano, Anthony Mastronardi, Anthony Stahl, Alan Barnstead Sean Daudelin & Zak Piccoline played incredible and seemed to step it up when the team need to win. Hopefully the kids had fun and gained valuable experience.
The Blackhawks are off to there best start in the history with a
4-0 mark. This was an incredible game to watch and see how
unselfish this team is gotten. They are starting to think pass
first which leads to more scoring opportunities.
Game 5 - Blackhawks 8 - Jaguars 2
The Blackhawks defeated the Jaquars 8-2 with another TEAM
effort. Ralph Mazzoni was increadable in the goal stoping 10 of
12 shots. We are starting to get great play from our defense
made up of Joe Schoenenberger, Anthony Mastronardi, Alan
Barnstead and Sean Daudelin. The offense has been consistant all
year with the 2 youngest players, Nicky Micciulli & Mark Powell
each getting 1 goal & 1 assist. The biggest surprise this season
has to be Travis Mascitelli who had 2 goals. He is starting to
learn to use his strenght and size to dominate the games.
Playoff game 1 - Blackhawks 11 - Yellow Jackets 1
The Blackhawks began their quest for their first championship with an 11-1 trouncing of the Yellow Jackets in the 1st round of the 8U playoffs. Steven Aflano had a career in one game scoring 3 goals and 2 assist. Alan Barnstead also cashed in with 2 assist to lead a well balanced attack.
Championship game, Blackhawks 5 - Jaguars 0
After 3 seasons of playing together, the Blackhawks finally won
the 8u championship finishing their first undefeated season.
They played a hard fought game against a gutsy Jaguar team and
shut them out 5 - 0. Alan Barnstead opened the contest with the
game winning goal followed by Mark Moskowitz who scored a hat
trick. The jaguars were keying on Mark, but he used his skating
ability to break free from their defense and score.
The kids had a great season and improved every game. They were
sparked by their new goalie, Ralph Mazzoni, who had only given up
6 goals in 9 games.
In their three seasons they have posted a 23 - 6 - 2 record. Way
to go!!!!
What was incredible about this victory was they killed 4 power
play attempts by the Jaguars. Great job, Zak Piccoline, Alan
Barnstead, Anthony Mastronardi, Mark Moskowitz, and Sean Daudelin
for your efforts.
Key contributors to this game and season were Tim Johnson, Joe
Schoenberger, Travis Mascitelli, Mark Powell, Steven Alfano,
Tyler Belostock and Nicky Micciulli.
Everyone on this team worked hard in the practices this season
and the sacrifice pay'd off. Big time imporved players were
Tyler Belostock, Steven Alfano , Travis Mascitelli, and Nicky
Micciulli

The 8-U Blackhawks played in the Turkey Hunt tournament over Thanksgiving weekend. Here is their review.
8u results
The little Hawks finished in 2nd place behind a powerfull Wave team from Toms River. For most of the players, it was their 3rd tournament and they played well. The Wave team was made up of players that were slightly older that our team with made the difference. It was nice to watch the Wave execute their offense since they had more experience playing in tournaments.
