12/6 - Mt Lebanon shuts down North Hills

NEVILLE ISLAND - North Hills coach Jimmy Black and Mt Lebanon Paul Taibi have a rivalry back to Black's days at Pine Richland and Taibi's at Bethel Park. So familiarity in coaching style on both ends was evident and the battle to keep pace with Bethel Park continues in the PIHL South Division. If you are going to beat Mt Lebanon, you must get the lead and that theory was gone at the 12:27 as Bill Leckenby (son and nephew of star players for the South Hills Catholic 1979 State AA Champions), scored to give the Blue Devils the lead. Mt Lebo's big gun Jason Schulz extended the lead to 2-0 with 5:20 remaining in the first. Mike Colligan had a great chance to make it a three goal lead but was stopped on a great save by Casey Dudt-Mulzet with just :07 left in the opening frame. Mt Lebanon and North Hills then engaged in some end to end action with both teams trying to get that big goal. Colligan, considered by many one of the best two way players in the PIHL, stripped the puck from an Indian defenseman and was in alone and beat Dudt Mulzet upstairs and Mt Lebanon was now on top 3-0. North Hills pressured the Blue Devils toward the end of the second and almost scored as the puck lay on the goal line, but Colin Sebastian scooped it up to preserve the advantage. Shots through two periods were even at 14-14. The third period of this contest was a different story as North Hills kept Mt Lebo penned up in its own end and outshoot them 16-2. Sebastian was terrific with great stickwork and controlling rebounds to earn the shutout and a big 3-0 win. imageimage
