Perhaps not quite the underdog that the US Hockey Team was in the 1980 Olympics but the Montgomery Ice Devils prevailed in a hard fought 5-2 victory over the 6th ranked New Jersey Jets in the 2025 Tier II 18U 3A National Championships.
The championship culminated 5 years of hard-work, determination and grit by the 18U MYHA program.
In 2019-2020, the 18U program won only 4 games out of 27 and was ranked 253 out of 398 teams.
The next season started a dramatic turn-around with the team winning 25 games, qualifying for the Nationals in the 3A division and making their first appearance in the National Quarterfinals. The next three seasons the Ice Devils would do one better losing close games in the National Semifinals.
This year the Ice Devils had a tough road being placed in the highest 3A division. MYHA came in ranked 12 out of the 16 teams with an overall ranking of 17. Every round robin game was close.
The Ice Devils beat #14 ranked Columbus Chill 4-3 with the GWG by Colin Doherty with 2:35 left. The Chill scored two goals in the last 90 seconds but the Ice Devils hung on for the victory.
Next up was a 5-3 victory over #5 Chicago Hawks. The GWG was scored early in the third period to go up 4-3 with Charlie Ingis providing the insurance goal with 45 seconds left.
To close out the round robin was a 6-5 OT victory over #8 Long Island Rebels. The Ice Devils were down 3-1 after the first period but battled back. There were 4 lead changes in the third period and Charlie Ingis finished the game with 9 minutes into overtime.
In the National Quarter and Semifinals, the Ice Devils dominated #15 Arizona Bobcats 5-2 and #4 Reston Raiders (their nemesis from the CBHL) 5-2.
The Ice Devils completed their historic season with a 5-2 victory over #6 New Jersey Jets.
Colin Doherty was the Offensive MVP of the Championship game scoring three goals including a short-handed goal and the game winning goal (assisted by Grant Wanner and Levi Miller) with 2:56 remaining in the third period. He would complete a championship hat trick to seal the victory at 1:27 remaining. An empty net goal with 35 seconds left provided the final margin.
This is the first National Championship for the Ice Devils and the first National Championship for the State Of Maryland.
The goal tending for the Ice Devils was exceptional with James Faricy posting a 2.25 GAA /0.949 SA and Charles Forino 3.96/0.890.
The Ice Devils were outshot 249 to 188 for the tournament including two games where they gave up 50 or more shots. The only game the Ice Devils led in shots was the Championship game.
Reid Pehrkon - Washington Post Met Player of the Year led the Ice Devils with 4 goals and 7 assists with Grant Wanner (8g/2a) and Kyle Metzer (5g/3a).

As the season nears an end and we look back on the MYHA 24-25 season, we celebrate the incredible success our teams had on the ice. Success comes in many forms—growth in skill, teamwork, friendships, and the dedication shown by every player, coach, and family. We proudly recognize the teams that brought home tournament and league championships and those who fought hard as finalists in their tournaments and league playoffs.
But success isn’t just about trophies—it's also about the teams who showed determination, improvement, and a love for the game. Many teams made great strides in skill development, built strong team chemistry, and played with heart every time they hit the ice. Whether it was a big win, a hard-fought battle, or simply growing as a team, every MYHA player contributed to a successful season.
Enjoy some highlights from this season and here’s to another year of memories, progress, and love for the game!

12U B Silver brings home the gold for their third consecutive tournament this season. Their team chemistry has proven that no matter the opponent, when you support your teammates and showcase effort, you finish strong. 12U travel lite has won all three of the tournaments they have registered in. Every single player contributes and we couldn’t be prouder of them.
MYHA would like to congratulate the 18U AA Blue for winning the LECOM Harborcenter Cup 18U AA Gold Championship.
The Ice Devils had a tough round robin bracket to navigate - playing the Pittsburgh Vengeance, Genesis Hockey Club and Rochester Jr Americans.
The semi-final was a nail-biter that concluded with a 5-3 victory. Then the team swept to a 4-3 victory in the championship against ROCO.
MYHA would like to congratulate the 12U B Silver Team and the 14U UA Gold/13U AA Team on their tournament victories this past weekend.
13UAA/14U UA Gold
Playing in the Can/AM Annapolis Youth Challenge Cup over the MLK Day Weekend, 13UAA/14UA Gold skated to a 4-0 record to capture the gold medal. After outscoring opponents 16-2 during the three game preliminary round, head coach Dan Lyons’ Ice Devils team beat CBHL division rivals Bowie Bruins 4-3 in the finals. In the championship game, with assists by linemates Jake Lyons and Matthew Venezie, right wing Andrew Fauver unleashed a no-angle top shelf snipe from the far corner in the third period to net the Game Winning Goal. After a quick rebuttal by the Bruins to pull within one goal, a strong team defense, led by goalie tandem Anthony Palermo and Gabe Hernandez all season, shut the door on any comeback hopes and sealed the championship victory.
12U B Silver

Congratulations to all our teams who participated. The hard work, effort, dedication, and leadership put forth by each player and coach was evident in every game played this weekend. We are excited to see how far our champions will go in their respective finals in January and February.
Exciting time for former MYHA player Patrick Giles, who played in his first NHL game on Saturday October 12. Patrick began his hockey career with MYHA, went on to play with Landon and Team Maryland locally, then the USA Hockey National Team Development Program (NTDP) , Boston College and the Charlotte Checkers in the AHL. Congratulations Patrick!
Congratulations Patrick!
