The stage is set for a championship moment.
The 14U Mount St. Charles squad is headed to the USA Hockey National Championship game after an impressive 5-2 semifinal victory over top-ranked Pittsburgh Penguins Elite.
Mount St. Charles delivered a complete team performance to punch their ticket to the final. Goaltender Evan Ladd stood tall between the pipes, turning aside 30 shots to backstop the win. Offensively, Sam Archibald led the charge with a three-point performance, while Arjun Mangadu found the back of the net twice to help seal the victory.
Now, one final test remains.
Mount St. Charles will take on Little Caesars for the national title on Sunday morning at 11:30 AM at USA Hockey Arena.
With momentum on their side and a championship within reach, Mount St. Charles is ready for the biggest game of the season. The entire THF community will be watching and cheering them on as they go for gold.
