BOSTON — The No. 5 Kent Lions took down No. 3 Dexter Southfield, 3-2, for the boys NEPSAC Large School title.
A scoreless second period set the stage for an exciting finish.
With under a minute remaining in regulation and an overtime looming, alternate captain and Cornell commit forward Gio DiGuilian (South Burlington, Vt.) broke the 2-2 tie with the go-ahead goal to give the Lions the late lead.
It was a lead the Lions hung onto despite Dexter Southfield's 6v5 chances as the final horn sounded.
