The Westchester Vipers 16U Gold – Spisso shut out the Peconic Wildcats 16U Gold – Lee 3-0 on Saturday at Westchester Skating Academy. The Vipers scored once in each period of the LIAHL 16U Gold regular-season matchup.
Giovanni Calce, Liam John and Lucas Vicari each scored for Westchester, which spread its offense across three different scorers. The Vipers held Peconic off the scoreboard for all three periods to earn the shutout.
Penalties were part of the game for both teams. Peconic’s Nikolas Nasta, Ryan Tiedge, Giovanni Cipriani and Jack Bryan were each assessed two penalty minutes, and Westchester’s Charlie Bruton and Robbie Paltz each drew two minutes.
The win was Westchester’s second over Peconic this season, after a 3-1 road victory on Sept. 19. The Vipers improved to 2-0-0-0, while the Wildcats fell to 1-2-1-0.
Peconic will look to find its scoring touch after being held without a goal, while Westchester tries to stay perfect.
