Game Recap
 
* Holy Family wasted no time in lighting up the scoreboard.  Habilaj scored his first of two goals in the 12th minute of action after receiving a quick cross pass from sophomore Will Stackhouse (Philadelphia, Pa./Archbishop Ryan) to assist on the score.  Sophomore Georg Montag (Philadelphia, Pa./Archbishop Ryan) set the play up by finding Stackhouse on the far right. 
 
* Leading 1-0 midway through the half the Tigers struck again this time junior Sean McCormick (Philadelphia, Pa./Father Judge) found the back of the net.  McCormick scored in the 25th minute after back-to-back passes from sophomore Joel Richmond (Bridgetown, Barbados/Church Farm) and Habilaj setting up the shot.
 
* The score remained 2-0 in favor of the Tigers through the rest of the half.  Holy Family quickly got the offense going to start the second.  Habilaj increased the lead to 3-0 when he scored his second goal of the game in the 48th minute.  Freshman Dakota Taylor (Willow Grove, Pa./Archbishop Wood) found Habilaj on the left side setting up a shot that found the far right corner of the net.
