Knoch’s bounce-back hockey season ended without a trip to the Penguins Cup playoffs.
Gregory Hensh scored a pair of goals and added two assists, leading Connellsville to a 5-0 win over Knoch on Monday night in the teams’ PIHL Division 2 regular-season finale.
Ryan Brown added a goal and two assists for Connellsville (15-3-0-2), which finished in a tie for third in the standings.
Knoch (5-15) was eliminated from the postseason with the loss. The Knights would have played a play-in game against Trinity for the final spot in the playoffs if they had won. Joel Cendrowski (17 saves) and Lucas Hentschel (18 saves) split time in goal for Knoch.
