CLASS AA
CLARENCE (VI) 4
SPENCERPORT (12-7-1) 0
The Rangers had trouble generating much in the attack and lost to the Red Devils (18-2), who also eliminated Churchville-Chili last year. Spencerport scored only 29 times this fall and that lack of playmaking caught up to the Rangers. Making their 19th regional appearance, the Red Devils led 13-3 in shots and pressed goalie Antonio Marsocci into nine saves. Clarence took a 1-0 lead into halftime on a pretty, flick-on goal by Dylan Stellrecht. The senior nodded home a high 15-yard header, catching Marsocci a few yards off his line. Felipe Garrido-Pereira assisted. Just 3:05 into the second half, Patrick Krough converted on a shot in the box off a 40-yard pass over the top, and 10 minutes later Garrido-Pereira beat two defenders and slipped a 12-yard shot inside the right post. Finally, with 3:03 left AJ Gulde scored from his knees on a near-post header into the upper 90.

HORNELL (16-2-1) 0
The Blue Devils (19-2) scored three times in the first 16 minutes and never looked back in routing Hornell for the second straight season (7-1 last year). The defending state champs led 11-1 in shots. Hornell trailed 3-0 at halftime and played a man short the final 15 minutes after a red card.
East Aurora junior Owen Mack (21 goals) scored three times, including the game-winner 7:40 in, junior Kai Sendziak had two assists and sophomore Bronson Besant had a goal and assist. Junior goalie Alfie Whitely made five saves for Hornell and East Aurora’s Connor Morris had one for his ninth straight shutout.
