Youngstown Phantoms Brawl Fills The Penalty Boxes! 12/5/09

FROM THE YOUNGSTOWN PHANTOMS NEWS RELEASE:

A five-on-five line brawl punctuated a two-goal final frame for the Phantoms as they
prevailed 3-1 at the Covelli Centre to sweep the weekend series against their East
Division rivals. Winners of two in a row, Youngstown (10-8-2, 22 points) has claimed
all four games in the season series with Chicago (10-9-3, 23 points).


After Adam Berkle collected Tom Serratores rebound and buried his sixth goal of the
season to make it 2-0 at the 10:00 mark of the third, what was once a skirmish
turned into an all-out fracas. Heavyweight Ryan Jasinsky dominated Chicagos Peter
Hand in a short but punishing fight at 10:19, but that was merely a precursor for
what was to come.


Forty seconds after Jasinskys TKO, Chicagos Alex Simonson jumped Stuart Higgins
after a faceoff in the Phantoms zone. Youngstowns Rich Young, the USHLs runaway
leader in penalty minutes with 114, quickly stepped in to help his teammate, and a
six-man pileup ensued with gloves discarded and punches exchanged.


With the officials monitoring the situation at the faceoff circle, the Phantoms
J.D. Carrabino and Jiri Sekac both grabbed dance partners and headed to open space.
The 6-foot-6 Carrabino enjoyed a reach advantage over the 6-foot-0 Dan Kolomatis and
handled him rather easily, but the real show was at center ice where Sekac, in his
second game with the Phantoms, had Mac Olson pinned down and was throwing wild
overhand rights.


When all the bouts were finally stopped, Youngstowns Carrabino, Sekac and Young
were ejected alongside Kolomatis, Olson and Simonson for Chicago. All told, the two
teams combined for 144 penalty minutes on 23 infractions.
