John Zdunkiewicz

Pennsbury Falcons ice hockey

What he has done

The 5-foot-10 junior goalie led the Falcons to the Flyers Cup Division A championship, making 27 saves in a 3-2 win over Strath Haven on March 28. He was named the tournament’s most valuable player. Pennsbury lost, 4-1, Saturday to Serra Catholic at Mellon Arena in Pittsburgh in the Pennsylvania Cup Class A final, but Zdunkiewicz kept the game close by making 33 saves. A 17-year-old from Levittown, he shared time in goal in his first two seasons and became the regular starter this year. Armed with a good glove hand and strong technique, Zdunkiewicz led the Falcons to a 14-12-3 record, posting two shutouts.

What his coach says

“John won the Flyers Cup for us. He kept us in that game with Strath Haven. They really came at us in the third period, and he held them off. He did that kind of thing for us all season.” -John Bria
