Pure Division Recap:

In the Pure Division championship game, Bayard Rustin survived a late charge from California's Santa Margarita Catholic High School to earn a 4-3 victory. Four different goal-scorers help pace the Knights, including Penney Cade, who also added two assists. Goaltender Jason Grande made 37 saves to earn his fourth victory of the tournament.

Bayard Rustin’s victory avenged an earlier 3-0 pool-play loss to Santa Margarita and produced the 13th USA Hockey national championship overall for a Pennsylvania-based team, the most recent coming last season when the Pittsburgh Pens Elite won USA Hockey’s Youth Tier I 18U title.

Bayard Rustin is the second Pennsylvania-based team to win USA Hockey’s High School national championship, following Bethel Park, which won the title in 2014. 

The High School Pure Division is comprised of teams that draw their players from a single school.
