Council Rock South earned a chance to defend its SHSHL national Division title with the win over the Titans Wednesday night at Grundy Arena. Illia Murkhin, Gavin Niseznon, Evan Mostoller, and Jake Weiner all scored goals for the second-seeded Golden Hawks 19-1, who will face Pennridge Thursday night at Hatfield Ice (7:45 start). They will try to become the first team in six years to successfully defend a National Division title.

“C.B. South played a good game,” said C.R. South coach Joe Houk, “but we had a little more firepower.”

Ryan Frey scored for the third-seeded Titans (13-9-1) in the second period.

“Our defensive zone play was great,” said Titan coach Shaun McGinty. “Transition killed us.”
