West Chester East’s depth was crucial in the Vikings’ 6-3 win against Indiana in the Pennsylvania Cup Class 1-A ice hockey state championship final Saturday at the UPMC Lemieux Sports Complex in Cranberry Township, just north of Pittsburgh.
“I noticed after the second period that Indiana looked a little winded,” said West Chester East head coach Eric Wolf, whose Vikings were trailing 3-2 after two periods. “So we went back to using four lines in the third quarter.”
West Chester East came alive early in the third period, scoring four times in a five-minute span.
It was the first state championship for the Vikings since 2013 – West Chester Rustin had won it every year since then. West Chester East won the state title in 2008 and 2013.

INDIANA PREPPING FOR WEST CHESTER EAST By John Smathers

Two undefeated teams meet for the state Class A hockey championship tomorrow morning, as Penguins Cup champion Indiana and Flyers Cup champ West Chester East face off at the UPMC Sports Complex in Cranberry.
Indiana coach Jordan Haines offered his thoughts on the Vikings.
Haines said the pace of the game may be dictated by how closely the officials call the game with two aggressive teams.
After an undefeated regular season, Indiana’s march to the Penguins Cup opened with a 5-1 win over North Catholic, followed in the semifinals by a 4-0 shutout of Freeport. In the Final on Monday, Indiana topped Chartiers Valley, 3-2, holding off a third-period charge after taking a 3-0 lead in the second period.
