FAIRFIELD, Conn.- Graduated seniors Kevin Leveille (Delmar, N.Y.) and Chris Fiore (Freeport, N.Y.) combined for four points, but it wasn't enough as the South All-Stars edged the North All-Stars, 20-14, in the 62nd Annual STX / USILA All-Star Classic.
The South squad bolted out to a 7-2 first-quarter advantage, and increased the lead to 13-3 at halftime. The North squad battled back behind Leveille. He scored his first goal of the game 54 seconds into the third quarter to cut the margin to 13-4, and then tallied another goal at the 2:54 mark of the period, which narrowed the South lead to 14-9. Fiore's point came on the North team's second goal of the quarter, as he assisted on Pat Myers' (Ohio State) goal at 9:19 of the quarter. The South team trailed 14-12 heading into the final quarter.
After the South squad scored the first five goals of the quarter, Leveille assisted on Michael Scaglione's (Yale) netter at the 7:24 mark to cut the margin to 19-13. But the North would get no closer as the South team ran out the clock for a 20-15 margin. The South outshot the North, 70-46.
Chris Fiore also scored his first career professional points in the Boston Cannons' 23-17 win over the Bridgeport Barrage. He tallied a goal and an assist in the victory.
