JSZ hits the ice for a busy night of hockey cup finals across the Garden State! We’ve got all the highlights from the Gordon, Mennen, McInnis, and Halvorsen Cup Finals.
Delbarton 3 Don Bosco Prep 2 | Gordon Cup Final
Sean O’Gwen’s power play goal from the point late in the second period proved to be the game winner as the Green Wave won a second straight and record 11th overall Gordon Cup title. Delbarton (16-1-3) saw Aidan Pasic and Egor Andreev (one goal and two assists each) score late in the first period to put the Green Wave in front 2-1. Ironmen freshman Marc Ruggere scored early in the third to make it a 3-2 game before the Green Wave locked down over the final 13 minutes to preserve the victory. Don Bosco (18-4-1) opened the scoring with a Jack Foye goal.

Morristown-Beard 7 KJS United 0 | Mennen Cup Final
No. 4 Morristown-Beard boys hockey rolled to their second straight Mennen Cup and 17th in program history Wednesday night with a 7-0 win over No. 12 KJS United in the Cup final.
Holding a 1-0 lead after the 1st off of a goal from freshman Justin Blair-Herms, the Crimson exploded for six goals in the last two periods of the game. Three of those goals came from John Gonnella, including a short-handed goal late in the 3rd that was immediately followed by another shorthanded goal by Marcus Cassidy. Evan Rodman and Austin Gildea were the Crimson’s other goal scorers on the night. Goalie Mason Hriczov saved all of the just 15 shots he saw in net.

After dropping four straight games—and two McInnis Cup Finals—to rival Westfield (16-3), the Lancers finally get one over their rivals. David Weinrib sparked the offense with two first-period goals, while Andrew Downey was outstanding in net.

West Morris 3 Park Regional 2 | Halvorsen Cup Final
West Morris are the 2026 Halvorsen Cup champions following a 3-2 comeback win over Park Regional. Trailing 2-1 entering the third and being outshot for much of the night, the Wolfpack scored twice in the final seven minutes to take control of the championship, their first in program history. Shiva Kuttikat delivered both third period goals after not finding the scoresheet for over two weeks, while Joseph Bruno opened the scoring with a first period power play tip. Mark Dybas, who faced heavy pressure once again after seeing 62 shots in the regular season matchup between these teams, came up with key saves late to secure the victory.
