Cannoneers Battle Hard but Fall to Fairfield in AAU National Tournament

The Jefferson Cannoneers put up a determined effort but ultimately fell 5–2 to Fairfield University in the AAU National Championship Tournament.  Jefferson opened the scoring when Nathan VanWie found the back of the net off a setup from Drew Blevins. Later in the game, Mason Savage added another Cannoneers goal, assisted by Tyler Sovie.  In goal, Presley Patrin turned in a strong performance despite the loss, stopping 50 shots and keeping Jefferson within reach throughout the contest.
