MVP's Vincent Palagiano and AJ Frankaitis shine
At the Town of Oyster Bay annually hosted classic Saturday night, in front of a packed crowd, the Western Nassau All-Stars saw a late goal by Sewanhaka / Valley Stream player Matthew Bomeisi to jump in front of the TOB All-Stars in a closely fought, highly skilled match. The final score was Western Nassau 3 TOB 2.
Bellmore/Merrick's Vincent Palagiano added a goal and was named the West's MVP. Farmingdale netminder AJ Frankaitis stopped many tough shots and went the distance for TOB as it's MVP.
Rally to victory through a sharp defensive game
With a sharp defensive effort lead by the Tournament MVP sophomore goaltender Kieran Byrne, the Marines stifled a tough Roy-Hart/Barker/Medina team to coast to a 3-1 victory to capture the State crown.
Byrne rewarded the coaching staff call by turning in a powerful effort on all but one of Roy-Hart's attempts. Late in the game, while Roy-Hart dominated in an effort to tie up the game, Byrne stayed strong and dominant with some key saves.
Declan Conway lead the scoring effort with two tallies and assisted on the Luke Judge put-away goal with 1:25 left in the game to set the stage for the victory.
This game closed out a 27 game tournament hosted by Northwell Health Ice Arena and the New York Islanders. We would like to thank everyone associated with the tournament and the 1200+ paid attendees who made this all a success.
Nassau Teams Continue Strong Showing in Day 2

Locust Valley driven by 2 goals from Matt Lipera and a goal and assist from Owen Rowell aced a the East Aroura / Holland team to set up the top seed in their Pool.
In Large Schools action, Bellmore / Merrick earned a tie over Lancaster to set up a semi-final game against cross-town rival Oceanside who lost earlier in the day to finish as the second seed with a 2-2 record.
Massapequa, Port Washington, and Manhasset were all eliminated yesterday after losses.
