At that point CVCA’s offense finally was able to get things going, as they scored three goals to tie the game over a 3:43 span to end the second period tied.

The game-winner and only goal of the third period was scored by the Royals, as Luke Perrotta tallied his second goal of the game to lead the Royals to the win.

The Hurricanes took the early lead thanks to a pair of goals from Gavin Supek, the first with 10:38 to play in the first, and second with 13:14 to play in the second.

gave Brooklyn a 3-0 lead when he found the back of the net on an unassisted goal with 8:39 to play in the second, and everything was going the Hurricanes way.

That’s when CVCA was finally able to get back into the game, getting a goal from leading goal scorer Christian Beckett with 5:28 to play in the second, and then Luke Perrotta closed it to 3-2 with a goal with 3:10 to play in the period.

The Royals tied it up on a Jack Perrotta goal just 1:35 after his brother found the back of the net, tying the game up at three.

The game was very physical, with the Royals for the most part dominating in the Hurricanes end, and finally they were able to break the tie and win the game on Luke Perrotta’s second goal of the game with 9:29 left.

CVCA goalie JT Nichols stopped 13 of 16 Hurricanes shots in the victory.

The Royals with the win will move on to play number two seed Normandy at 3:30pm Saturday, who led by Lukas George defeated Westlake in the opener of action on Wednesday 8-1.
