| The Game Story: | |||||
| MONTCLAIR - With the Pride's collective back against the wall and with the game tied entering the fourth quarter tied at 13, the Rochester Rattlers ran off seven tallies en route to a 20-15 win that eliminates New Jersey from playoff contention. The Pride needed to win its final three games in order to make the playoffs, and hope that both the Rattlers and Philadelphia Barrage lost their remaining game against the Baltimore Bayhawks. "We had an opportunity and we missed it,'' said Pride head coach Brian Silcott. "The game was ours for the taking and we did not get the job done in the fourth quarter." The Pride played its best quarter of the season in the first, opening up a 7-3 lead after 15 minutes thanks to some nifty saves from starter Scott Schroeder, who ended the contest with 15 stops. New Jersey held a one-goal lead at halftime, but played a mediocre third quarter that saw Rochester win 7-of-10 face offs and outscore the team 5-4. "The third quarter again hurt us,'' Silcott said. "They only outscored us by one, but I think the momentum began to turn." That led to the fourth quarter where the Pride out-did the Rattlers in every category except on the scoreboard. Rochester is in a tie for the final playoff spot with Philadelphia, but holds the tiebreaker, and would be in the playoffs if the season ended today. Liam Banks led the Pride with three goals, and Adam Doneger, Kyle Harrison, Scott Urick and Jamie Hanford all had a pair of goals. Doneger drilled a two-pointer in the first quarter to help the Pride jump out to their early lead. Tillman Johnson made 20 saves, and was named the Bud Light Game MVP. "He made stops down the end and we did not,'' said Silcott. "He is becoming one of the premier goalies in this league, and there will be times where he will carry that team on his back." |
