Denecke Leads Warriors to Non-Conference Win

Aidan Denecke has been the Warriors unquestioned offensive leader all year.  The senior captain continued in that role as he lead the Warriors with 7 points on three goals and 4 assists in the non-conference matchup with the Quakertown Panthers.  

The guest Warriors opened the scoring in the first quarter as freshman Jack Pellegrino found the net on his third goal of the year on a Kyle Derrickson assist.  Ryan O'Toole notched the Warriors second on a Denecke helper. Denecke and Kyle Kacala combined for the next two goals as they took turns scoring and assisting.  Denecke would notch two more and assist another as Methacton opened up a 7-0 first quarter lead.  

Quakertown would score the only goal of the second quarter and the teams would enter the half with Methacton holding a 7-1 advantage.  

The second half would see Methacton extend it's lead with a flurry of goals coming from a number of different goal scorers.  Connor McHugh found the net with an assist from Gil Price and Stanley Kolimago followed with an individual tally.  Jack Pellegrino would notch his second of the day on anther Denecke assist.  The final two goals were scored by long stick midfielders as Dylan Henry and Nick Salerno both scored their first of the year.  

Quakertown would add two more third quarter goals but the Warriors maintained a healthy lead throughout.  Junior Goalie Harvey Smith kept a clean sheet while Freshman Goalie Matt Wall played well in relief.  

Methacton continues their schedule as they travel to Boyertown tomorrow night to face the PAC-10 rival Bears.
