Prowlers Carve Up Ice Breakers

In the first game of a weekend series at home, the Port Huron Prowlers carved up the Mentor Ice Breakers 4-2 on Friday night.

In the first period, Dalton Jay got the Prowlers on the board at the 1:57 mark. A pass from Mike Moroso would spring Jay who with plenty of time and space would wrist a shot past the glove of Frankie McLendon to put Port Huron up 1-0.

In the second period, a pair of Prowlers would have their first career goals. Mike Moroso would find the back of the net after one-timing a pass from Zach Zulkancyz. Bobby Sokol would then put the Prowlers up 3-0 after firing home a shot in the slot.

But Richard Pinkowski would make it interesting for the Breakers when he found the back of the net with a shot from the corner. The puck would slip through Simons’ pad to cut the lead to 2.

But Moroso would answer back for the Prowlers when he deflected a shot up in the air and beat McLendon to give the Prowlers a 4-1 lead.

In the third period, Isaiah Crawford would slide a puck in between Simons’ legs for Mentor but it wasn’t enough as the Prowlers would hold onto to the 4-2 lead and pick up three points.
