Onyshko made 14 saves and Hoy finished with 17. With the rest of the Crescenta Valley defense just as difficult to penetrate and Royal shots frequently going off target, the host Falcons (17-4) never trailed until Carnahan's game-winning shot. ``Most of the guys took it pretty hard,'' Hoy said of the loss to Division IV's top-ranked team, which improved to 19-3. ``It's tough since we led most of the time. ``I'm happy with how we played, though. It's a learning experience.'' David Mulcahey led the Falcons with three goals, including the first score just 34 seconds into the contest. Royal's Ramiro Saldain and Tyler Templeton scored two goals each in the first half for a 4-4 tie at halftime, but Crescenta Valley's Daniel Besedick opened the third quarter with back-to-back goals for a lead that held up until Carnahan's second goal. Steve Han pulled up at the corner and fired a shot past Onyshko with 1:41 left in the second overtime to give Crescenta Valley an 8-7 lead after neither team scored in the first overtime. However, Royal's Justin McClure tied the score less than a minute later and Hoy blocked McClure's final shot of the period to send the game to sudden death. ``I think both of us are using this to get ready for playoffs,'' Highlanders coach Steve Snyder said. ''It was great.'' CAPTION(S): photo Photo: Crescenta Valley's Jeff Little, left, battles Royal's Ramiro Saldain for possession during Royal's overtime victory Thursday.
