    The Cavaliers used a six-goal third-quarter burst to put away visiting Haverford College in an NCAA Division III second-round playoff game, 13-10, and in the process became the first Cabrini team in any sport to advance to the final eight of an NCAA competition.

    The contest was a free-wheeling affair, as both teams looked for transition opportunities and quick goals.
     “When they started scoring, they won the face-offs and they didn’t let us have the ball,” said Haverford College coach Mike Murphy. “The game was up and down, back and forth like we thought it would be.”
    Murphy added that experience may have been a factor: “They’ve been here before, and this was our first time in the tournament. They just made more plays than we did.”
    After Mike Distler opened the scoring for Haverford five minutes in, Cabrini scored the last three goals of the quarter to lead 3-1. The Black Squirrels rebounded in the early part of the next frame, as they pumped in three goals in under three minutes, two coming out of the stick of Brian Fleishhacker.
    The teams then went back and forth for the remainder of the period, with Cabrini leading 6-5 at the intermission.
    The second half commenced with another quick run from Haverford, when Matt Thorne-Fitzgerald (Strath Haven) took just eight seconds to follow Jason Leeds’ goal with one of his own off the draw. (CONTINUE)
