FORWARD:

.
Justin Pacheco, Philadelphia Blazers National
Having success in the face-off circle this weekend, Pacheco was a reliable center to have on the rink. Also sharing the team lead in points (6), he netted a nasty breakaway goal this weekend after striping a D man of the puck and turning on the speed.
.
Henry Colonna, North Jersey Avalanche Gold
Henry brought his A-game this weekend, leading his team in points with seven. His hockey IQ shined as he was able to make plays to put the puck in the back of the net.
.
Braxton Menkiti, MYHA Blue

Cooper brought 100% effort to every game he played and it reflected on the scoresheet. He was the team’s most consistent scorer, recording three goals and four points total.
.
Henry Rielly, Jersey Shore Wildcats Red
With a hat trick in the Wildcats’ 6-5 shootout loss to the 4-0 Delaware Ducks Reilly scored more goals (3) against the Ducks in one game than they had let up (2) in their three previous games. He also scored the game-tying goal against Team Philadelphia very late in the 3rd period. Reilly is tied for the Wildcats team lead with 5 goals after the weekend.
.
Jonathan Eves, Haverford Hawks

.
Tyler Nevroski, Philadelphia Blazers National
Leading his team on and off the ice, this Captain did it all this weekend. Shutting down top players in the defensive zone and scoring big goals on offense. Nevrotski had the nicest slap shot goal from the blue line all weekend.
.
Zachary Shen, Brick Hockey Club 2
Zachary showed what it meant to be a true shut-down defenseman this past weekend, stifling the opponent’s offense every chance he got.
.
Jackson Skaare, MYHA Blue

.
Reece Corneau, Jersey Shore Wildcats Red
Reece relies on a combination of great anticipation, a giant heart, and superior stick skills to shut down forwards all weekend. Despite usually having a size advantage against Corneau, opposing forwards had a difficult time carrying the puck around him.
.
.
GOALIES:
.
Dylan Myers, Capital City Vipers
Dylan was as clutch as a goalie could be this past weekend, stopping ten total breakaways and stopping five shootout attempts in the Vipers’ first win. He always stayed positive, even when the score was not in his team’s favor, and helped out coaches when he was on the bench.

.
Maya Sturm, Jersey Shore Wildcats Red
Boasting a .907 sv pct, Sturm did everything she could (47 saves) to keep the undermanned Wildcats in their game long enough to storm back late to tie the Ducks. Sturm also had a shutout against Ashburn and was a major reason why the Wildcats were undefeated in regulation through 4 games.
.
Harry Kool, Haverford Hawks
The big man in net had a tremendous weekend in his two starts allowing only one goal and recording his first shutout of the season. His 0.957 Save % is a big reason the Hawks went undefeated in their first showcase.
