Deerfield Takes Flood-Marr -- Again

Dedham, Mass.  --

Midway through the first half, Deerfield blitzed Hotchkiss with three goals in a four-minute span. That, combined with the shutout goaltending of senior Mike Aroesty, gave Deerfield a 3-0 win here today and its second straight -- and third in four years -- Flood-Marr championship.

With 14:14 left in the first half, junior Chip Canner broke down the right side and unleased a slapshot from inside the face-off circle that tipped past the glove of Hotchkiss goaltender Eric Smith. With 10:54 remaining, big Deerfield winger Rob Fried  picked up a rebound at the side of the net and fired home a tough-angle shot that put Deerfield up, 2-0.  24 seconds later, Aaron Kim, who's been moved back to defense, fired a shot from the point that found net. And that was all she wrote.

Winger Tyler Kolarik assisted on all three goals.

Nobles Finds Consolation;
Milton Does Not

In the third-place game, Nobles topped Milton, 4-2. It was a 2-2 game at the half, as junior Mark Angeloni and freshman Rob Flynn scored for Milton, while Nobles got goals from senior Mike Murray and junior Chris Owen.

At the start of the second half, Nobles coach Tom Resor replaced starting goaltender Steve Belew with Scott Annan.

Shortly afterward, Jake Clapton notched the game winner, assisted by Kevin Lyons and Murray. An empty-net goal by Murray in the last minute sealed the win.

In the fifth-place game, Westminster topped Salisbury, 5-1.

In the seventh-place game, it was Andover 6-0 over Kimball Union.

Two Years Ago --  Sun. December 21, 1997:

Dirkes Wins it for Deerfield in Double OT

MILTON, MASS.--

Senior defenseman Chris Dirkes scored at 5:15 of the second overtime to give Deerfield Academy a 3-2 win over Westminster in the Flood-Marr Tournament title game this afternoon.

Dirkes corralled a loose puck in the Westminster zone, and broke in alone on goaltender Rob Miller.  He deked right, freezing Miller, and then tucked a backhander into the open net.  The goal sent a frozen crowd at Milton's new rink into a frenzy, culminating a weekend of dramatic finishes.
