Clam Diggers bury Beach Combers, 10-1.
The Clam Diggers blew Ben's shutout bid
with just one second left, as they let Trevor Armand score just
before the final buzzer.
It was just 2-0 after one, as it was close early. A pair of goals by Flanagan set the tone. But in the 2nd, green exploded for 5 goals, with the gold team having no answer. "We haven't been the same team since Gambale left," said Brian Armand. In the final period the green Clam Diggers showed some mercy, and only scored one goal on poor Mike Vieira. It was all wrapped up at 10-0, all the was left was to celebrate the shutout. But Trevor Armand had other plans, as he streaked down the left wing and scored short side on Minsk just as the buzzer sounded, ending the shutout bid with a second left. This seemed to energize the yellow team, who are now pumped up for next week's playoff game despite the 10-1 loss. "The team really came together in that last second," said Lloyd. "At that point, we didn't care how many breakaways that Thompson didn't score on." Gold will take on the red in round one, and the surging green team will take on the first place navy team.
