LUDLOW — The Division I Western Mass quarterfinal between Pittsfield and Ludlow wasn’t a home game for the Generals on paper.
However, by the way PHS treated Lusitano Stadium Monday evening, it might as well have been. The No. 5 Generals, who previously won the Valley’s summer league tournament on that same artificial turf, dominated play en route to a 4-1 victory over the No. 4 Lions.
NORTH ADAMS — Taconic Ice Hockey took its time in the visitor locker room at Peter W. Foote Vietnam Veterans Memorial Skating Rink Wednesday night. The Braves were drained, emotionally and physically by a 4-3 win over host Wahconah.
They survived a total of 11:30 of penalty time, including a four-minute major and a full three-minute period of whistled 5-on-3. The second period alone featured 10 of those minutes, which allowed the Warriors to equalize what was a 3-1 deficit before the final 15 began.
