STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. \u2014 Anthony Antenucci scored a hat trick and Joseph Donadio added two goals as St. Peter\u2019s upended previously undefeated St. Joseph by-the-Sea, 6-4, in CHSHL A play at Staten Island Pavilion on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
The Eagles, who also received a goal from Nick Aversa and two assists apiece from Giancarlo Sears and Nick King, improved to 8-6-1 overall.<\/p>\n
Dan Pieters, Charles Bailey, Kingston Vandenheuvel and Avery Lee added one helper apiece for SP.<\/p>\n
St. Peter\u2019s goaltender Chris DiDonna, meanwhile, turned in a strong game after making 34 saves.<\/p>\n
Sea opened the scoring 4:54 in, but Antenucci knotted the score just over two minutes later when he converted a nice pass from Lee into a goal. Just 1:33 later, Donadio made it 2-1 with an unassisted tally after working the puck free from the corner. <\/p>\n
The Eagles then opened the second-period scoring at 7:41 when Antenucci turned a Sears feed into a goal. The New Brighton school then went into the third period up 4-1 when Aversa tallied on a power play off two nice passes from Vandenheuvel to Aversa.<\/p>\n
Although Sea made it 4-2 early in the third, the Eagles regained momentum when Antenucci took a pass from Sears and weaved through three Sea players to score a short-handed goal to make it 5-2. The Eagles later capped their scoring when Donadio tallied off assists from King and Pieters.<\/p>\n
Sea scored twice to cut SP\u2019s lead to 6-4, but DiDonna made several sensational stops, according to SP head coach Ed Blackburn, in the final 5:00 to preserve the victory.<\/p>\n
SP\u2019s next game is against Holy Cross on Thursday (8:40 p.m.) at the Pavilion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. \u2014 Anthony Antenucci scored a hat trick and Joseph Donadio added two goals as St.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":131614,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[39],"tags":[9,24,63,134,136,135],"class_list":{"0":"post-131613","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-staten-island","8":"tag-new-york","9":"tag-new-york-city","10":"tag-nyc","11":"tag-staten-island","12":"tag-staten-island-headlines","13":"tag-staten-island-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/131613","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=131613"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/131613\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/131614"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=131613"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=131613"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=131613"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
