The Jr. Everblades opened the scoring in the first period on a goal by Alex McCain, who attends St. John Neumann High. Barron Collier student Chris Brown notched an assist.
A second-period tally from S. Trade Chapman, who attends Estero High, gave the Jr. Everblades to a 2-1 lead heading into the third.
