Stevie O’Malley completed the heartbreaker for No. 12 Archbishop Williams (11-10-2), potting the overtime winner from the top of the right circle to finish off a 3-2 upset win over No. 5 Reading in Div. 1 second-round play. Jack Healy had tied the game with 47 seconds left in regulation, firing a heavy shot from the neutral zone that skipped off a Rockets defender’s leg into the top corner beyond goalie JT Coyne’s reach.
“We had to fight and scrap for everything,” said Archbishop Williams head coach Chris Cunningham. “We caught a lucky break on that tying goal but I think we earned our breaks with our hard work. … (O’Malley) scored his first goal in over a month. He had been snake bitten. Perfect time to get one.”
Coyne and Bishops goalie Austin Gaylord were both otherwise stellar in net to keep it a low-scoring affair despite a bevy of chances from both teams throughout.
“They play tough in the D-zone and (Coyne) was is great, he doesn’t allow many,” Cunningham said. “(Gaylord) came up big for us as well. … Just a great team effort.”
