Jan. 13 notebook: Olszewski lifts Park Regional in OT

OLSZEWSKI LIFTS PARK REGIONAL OVER ROXBURY IN OVERTIME

Chase Olszewski scored the game-winner with 3:09 left in overtime to lift Park Regional to a 5-4 win over Roxbury in a Haas Division battle at Mennen Arena.

Park Regional led, 3-0 in the second period, before Roxbury struck for three unanswered goals by the end of the second to knot it up. Roxbury’s Ryan Van Zile gave the team the lead with just a few minutes left, but Park answered quickly to tie it up and force overtime.

Nick Monaco and Colin Mullooly each recorded a goal and an assist for Park Regional, which is now 3-3 in the division and has control of the fourth and final Haas Cup playoff spot with a three-point lead on Roxbury. Matthew McDermott and Dylan Aker each found the back of the net in the win.

Dylan Marion stopped nine of 10 shots in relief to earn the victory.

Roxbury is now 2-10-1 overall with a 1-6-0-1 record in the division. It will need to win both of its remaining divisional games against Mountain Lakes-Boonton and West Morris- and will need significant help- in order to qualify for the Haas Cup playoffs.
