Zarchin, a
senior from St. Mary’s, is the starting goalkeeper for the Sea Gulls
and he stopped 12 shots in the victory, as he helped Salisbury cap and
undefeated season (22-0) and capture its third national crown in the
last four years.  Zarchin started all 23 games this year and earned
honorable-mention All-American honors.  He allowed just 93 goals for a
goals against average of 5.4 and made 134 saves on the year.

Hartzell,
also a senior, is a long stick middie out of Archbishop Curley, who
came to Salisbury after a brilliant junior college career at
CCBC-Essex.  A third-team All-American pick this year, Hartzell was
singled out by his head coach for his excellent defensive work on
Cortland’s top scorer, Ryan Heath, in yesterday’s final.

Hartzell,
who forced five turnovers and had six ground balls yesterday, held
Heath, who came into the contest with 82 points and 50 goals, scoreless
in the national championship game.  For the year, he was third on the
team with 86 ground balls and he had two assists.

Junior
attackman Greg Baggan, from Boys’ Latin, is another former MIAA player
who contributed heavily to Salisbury’s big year.  Baggan, who did not
score yesterday, finished the season with 27 points, on 13 goals and 14
assists.  He also won 17 ground balls.

In addition, senior
defenseman Mike Edwards, a co-captain from Calvert Hall, appeared in
all 23 games and made 17 starts.  He had 75 ground balls and was very
effective in the transition offense, netting two goals and handing out
eight assists, including one yesterday.   Edwards’ Calvert Hall
teammate Ryan Browning is also a key performer for the Gulls.  Playing
in all 23 games, mostly as a reserve, Browning scooped 53 ground balls,
added two goals and two assists, and played excellent defense.

Debuting
with the Salisbury dynasty this spring were also two freshman from the
MIAA.  Midfielders Will Poletis of Loyola and Brenden Ryan of Calvert
Hall combined for 19 appearances, as well as four goals and two assists.
