Battle Of The Unbeatens

Neumann and Farmingdale have successfully navigated the early season schedule and have set up one of the most talked about games early this season.

Neumann has rolled through the competition this season, going 5-0-0 with a 48-13 goal differential. Farmingdale is sitting at 7-0-0 with a 41-17 goal differential.

Neumann and Farmingdale met a total of seven times last season, with Neumann taking all seven contests. The teams played each other in the preseason, regular season (2), inter-regional (2), league championships and national championships.

This is the first meeting this season between the two school, the second and final regular season metting will be played November 19th at 3pm in Feasterville, PA.

Shane Fox has been the star for Neumann early in the season, playing 5 games while scoring 15 goals and 10 assists for 25 points, all team highs. Tyler Kraft, who played his first two games of the season this morning registered 6 goals and 8 assists for 14 points.

Kraft's return to the lineup should worry Farmingdale as he is one of the most dynamic players in the country. Last season Kraft ran away with the ECRHA Scoring title scoring 97 points on the way to being name the Division 1 POTY.

Farmingdale takes a balanced approach to offense, as 14 different players have found the back of the net for Farmingdale. Chris Russolello and Nick Tarasco share the team lead in goal, with 7.

The rink is expected to be packed for the showdown, with Mission Hockey College taking place immediately preceding the game.
