By Alex Webbe
Piaget took advantage of three goals by handicap from the
25-goal La Ensenada team as it ran up an early 5-2 lead after the first chukker
of play. A pair of goals from the field
from Juan Agustin Garcia Grossi was answered with two penalty goals from Piaget’s
Nic Roldan for the 5-2 score.
Lucas James added two more goals to the La Ensenada
total, but Piaget fired right back. A
pair of goals from Gonzalito Pieres and a single goal from the field from Juan Bollini
gave Piaget a comfortable 8-4 advantage after two periods.
La Ensenada rallied for three straight goals in the third
as James converted two penalty shots and added a goal from the field. Roldan converted a 60-yard penalty shot for
Piaget for a 9-7 halftime lead.
The two teams exchanged goals in the fourth with James
recording his sixth goal of the day. Bollini
scored a goal for Piaget as they continued to lead, 10-8.
Grossi scored from the field in the fifth for La Ensenada
and James converted a 40-yard penalty shot for a goal to tie it at 10-10. Roldan closed out the chukker with a goal from
the field and a 60-yard penalty goal.
With one chukker left to play, Piaget continued to lead, 12-10.
Sixth chukker goals from La Ensenada’s Alan Meeker and
Matias Magrini were answered by two more penalty conversions from Pieres for
the 14-12 Piaget win.
Roldan was credited with five goals for Piaget. Pieres added four goals and Bollini scored
twice. Piaget received three goals by
handicap.
James set the pace for the day with seven goals. Grossi scored three times and Meeker and
Magrini added single goals.
