Game two was played Saturday afternoon. Maryland scored first about five minutes into the game on a fine shot by forward Channing Kai. It would be their only lead as the Cardinals quickly responded with a goal by forward Svit Ravnik. South Kent went up 2-1 in the second period with a slap shot by Kagen Langlois. The final period was all South Kent; the puck rarely left Maryland’s end of the ice. Both Rowan McCord and Alexander Sokolov scored, giving South Kent a 4-1 victory.

The series concluded Sunday morning with South Kent winning 6-4 and Team Maryland loading up on the bus for a long drive home.

Both teams are part of the Tier 1 Hockey Federation, a USA Hockey-sanctioned league that provides a competitive environment for youth hockey players across the United States.
