Hudson Valley led 5-1 after the first quarter and led 7-1 at half en route to the victory.

Josh Mateo (Waterloo) had a hat trick to lead the Pioneers offense while Ben Rossignolo (Churchville) recorded three points with a goal and two assists.  Bill Jolly (Waterloo), Ryan Grogan (Churchville), and William Ardolino (William Floyd) each scored once and Mitch Wensel (Corning East) picked up an assist.
