Shattuck St. Mary's claims 4th U18 Tier I National Championship



Championship Game: Shattuck St. Mary's Prep 3, Mid-Fairfield Blues 1


Shattuck St. Mary's claimed its fourth U18 Tier I National title in seven years. Shattuck scored all three of their goals in the third period including an empty netter. Mid-Fairfield displayed a valiant effort to tie the game 1-1 after they were down 1-0 early in the third period. Mid-Fairfield had some quality chances to tie the game, but a late penalty in the third period made it hard for the Blues to comeback in the closing minutes. This is Shattuck's first U18 Tier I National Championship since 2008, a span of two years where they didn't claim the title. Congratulations to Shattuck St. Mary's Prep on another National Championship. Definitely I give props to the Mid-Fairfield Blues who had an incredible run to the championship game and fell just short. Shattuck St. Mary's continues to prove itself as one of the premier youth hockey programs in the United States.
