Started out with temperatures in the 60s. It's been steadily falling as the skies get a little a little grayer. We might see a drop or two of rain. This is of course an excellent artificial turf field with very good drainage, so unless there's a monsoon, conditions should remain playable. Might take a moment here to check out the old weather radar, see what it says. And
024so far nothing showing as far as rain in the immediate vicinity, so we should stay being pretty good shape for the rest of this game. Play underway. Dax Becker being watched by Colin Scarrett.

027by two, 4-2 here. Fairly low-scoring affair. Lots of quality goaltending and defense by both teams. While I've got a moment here, let's mention the JV game played right before this one uh between these two teams, their JV squads, and Bedford eked out a 7-6 win. Uh Bedford jumped out to early lead and held on, but the Blue Hawks came back late and almost caught the uh Bedford Bulldogs JV, but in the end, they were able to hold out, run down the clock, and preserve a victory. And they come away with a 7-6 win earlier today. Teams back on the field, we'll resume play. Blue Hawks control. Here's Chenard.

He's been doing a great job on those face-offs today. Gets the ball to Durso, goes into the offensive zone. Full stop, waits for his teammates. There's There's Becker, number 15. Being pursued. The Hayes who's there on the far side, down low to Ruben. Kobe Ruben having a little trouble controlling the ball. Now it's on the ground. Taken away by Scarrett. Immediately up the far sideline, Scarrett runs over the center stripe. Tried to make a pass, but missed his mark. It goes out
029of bounds, and it's turnover by the Blue Hawks. Bedford will control. Khan in the net gets the ball, gets it up to Becker. Becker quickly up to Frangillo, number seven. The Middie now gets it to Durso. Durso waits. And a quick pass there by Becker, intended [cheering] for Matthews, off the mark.

Great give and go there by Tommy Graves but just off the mark or Con got a stick on it. Either way, puck stays out of the net or ball stays out. You can tell I call a lot of hockey games. Another shot there. Bounces wide of the net. Exeter still on the attack. Gennard comes in, low drive, just wide, backed up by Graves. Blue Hawks will control. 28.6 to go. Wilhelm or should I say Graves, number 16, up to Wilhelm. Gibney, Hoff Time ticking away, 15 seconds. Wind up and a goal. Hoff with his third. [cheering] And we're all tied up with 11.2 seconds to go. >> [cheering] [cheering] >>
031So, Hoff takes it all the way. And the shot drifting just to the right-hand side of Ethan Kahn. Ties the game up here with 11.2 seconds to go. Just enough time for another attack here depending on what team comes up with the clean win on the face off. And once again, it is Riccio. Fires a shot just wide backed up by Ruben. Clock is stopped with 4 seconds. And we'll see if we can get a shot away here. Clock resumes. Ruben looking. Gets it up to Matthews. Fires it high and stopped right there by Bernich. And that's how it's going to end. Great action here for both teams. Bedford had a 4-2 lead, but Exeter scoring two late both by Sean Hoff. And we are tied at four going into the half. We'll take a
032break, come back in about 9 minutes bringing the second half action here on Blue Hawk Media and BCTV. I'm Harry Kozlowski calling the game. We'll be right back.

Second half action about to begin. Good contest here all tied up at four apiece. Let's recap the scoring for you. It opened up at 10:58 of the first, Dax Becker from Colby Rubin made it 1-0. Bedford, I'm sorry, Exeter ties it up at 6:39 on the power play, Chinard from Graves, 1-1. Then Sean Hoff, first of his three goals, unassisted at 6:05, 2-1 Exeter. Bennett Matthews from Becker made it 2-2 at 5:35 of the first, and then at 1:59 on the power play in the first, Durso from Matthews, gave Bedford a 3-2 lead. Exeter controls off the face-off. Yang.

He's a goal scorer today as well. Hoff with three. Gibney. Wilhelm to Graves. Graves comes out from behind goal line extended, thinks about shooting, drops it back to Gennard. Gennard. Backhand. And wow, I don't think Khan was expecting that one. A beautiful shot. And they're going to call that a goal. So Gennard with his second goal of the game puts Exeter up on top, 5-4. Gennard just comes from behind and very nonchalantly just gives the low low shot that fools Khan. At 10:55 of the third. Gennard unassisted. And Exeter with the lead now. Ruben now for Bedford behind the net. Watched by Swallje. Pass up
035high now to Durso. Becker comes along to set up a pick. But another defender's right there. >> [cheering] >> Now taken away. Chase Barrett comes away with that long stick over the center line. Gets it to Wilhelm. Wilhelm to Graves. Now Kerrigan. Hoff joins the action. Leaves it there for Gennard. >> [cheering] >> Behind X. Kerrigan shot. I think that went off the post. Out of bounds backed up by Wilhelm. Ball will stay with Exeter. Play resumes. Graves back to Wilhelm. Gennard. Now Gibney from Hoff. Gibney picks up a pick from Hoff. Hoff hits the dirt. No call. Gibney drifts behind goal line extended. Now comes up from behind the net. Centering pass. Oh, Kerrigan just missed the net. He got a beautiful set up there. He backs up his own shot. So Exeter still
036with the ball. Gibney. Runs into a defender. High shot. Kahn makes the save. Now Bedford with the ball. Durso. Or correction, that is uh Dylan Riccio, number five. Exeter, so getting [cheering] kind of going through the ringer right there. He's knocked down, loses his stick, almost comes up with the ball. But [cheering] Exeter's got it now. Here's Chase Barrett. >> [cheering] >> Gahaff Now Wilhelm Behind X is Graves. Up to Carrigan. Gibney Gennard and now Haff. Haff won a one against DeJesus, drops it back to Graves, Carrigan now. Carrigan spins. Gets it to Gibney. Now Gennard up high. Drives, being watched there. Gennard still with it. And they score. >> [cheering] [applause] >> Believe that was Wilhelm with the goal. Blue Hawk goal, number 15, Matt Wilhelm. So Wilhelm gets the goal with the assist
037from Gennard. And it's now a 6-4 lead here for the Blue Hawks at the 7:37 mark of the third quarter. Bedford now wins the face-off, they come away with it. Quick shot. >> [cheering] >> In the net. Quick response right there. No fooling around. Bulldog goal number five, Dylan Riccio. Dylan Riccio wins the face-off and goes all the way end to end. And beats the keeper Ernitch. And just like that, it's now a 6-5 contest. Riccio unassisted at 7:28. Ball's still loose here off the face-off. Finally picked up by the Bulldogs. Riccio looking for an outlet, decides to go toward the net. Why not shoot it again? Bounces in front of the net out of bounds. Backed up by Bedford. Ruben right there. Now the clock starts. Ruben spins. Takes a stick or two from
038the defender Swalaj. Now Dax back her up high. De Jesus one-on-one there with Bedford defender or the Exeter defender. Matthews gets it in. Oh, and Durso [cheering] scores. >> [applause] >> Great pass. Found Durso in tight against Bernitch. And we're all tied up again at six. Durso with his third of the game. Matthews assisting at the 6:38 mark. So, unlike the second quarter where you only had three goals, we're already up to four here with 6:38 yet to play. All tied at six. Yang against Riccio. Riccio wins his wins another face-off here. Bedford having a great time in the face-off circle, winning most of them. Here's Ruben behind goal line extended, comes out. Spins away from two defenders, loses the ball. And they're going to call a foul right there. Flag goes flying. I believe
039that is going to be number seven. Cam Knowles going into the penalty box for the Blue Hawks. Yes, it is. Or do we have offsetting here? We'll find out. Nope. It's Knowles. Takes the knee in the box. And now Bedford will have the man advantage here. 6:09 to play in the third. Ruben. Actually drew past Gallace 33 there. That's Ruben. Now Durso fires a shot. Riser scores. Number four for Durso. Puts Bedford back on top. Goal by goal. Number six, Bryce Durso. So, let's check that replay again. So, that was Ruben assisting there. Pass up to Durso. And three quick goals by the Bulldogs in the span of about a minute and 1 second. Gets them back on top. Ball's loose in the face-off circle. Everybody trying to pitchfork it. Still not not in control.
040Now, finally, Riccio gets it for Bedford, taking his lumps in the process. Pass across to Pasgalles. He's got to get away from that long stick and that very effectively knocks it off his stick. That was Chase Barrett. Ball loose again. They're going to call that a violation. Give the ball to Exeter. So, Wilhelm for Exeter into the attack zone.
