BLAINE — Chase Lapworth scored at 8:31 of the third period for the game’s lone score, but the star of this one was New England Knights goaltender Zach Roncarati.

The 19-year-old from East Longmeadow, Massachusetts, stopped all 48 shots he faced in the Knights’ 1-0 victory over the Willmar WarHawks on Monday afternoon at the Schwan’s Super Rink.

The effort reduced Roncararti’s goals-against average to 3.00 in 10 games for New England.

There were a total of 94 penalty minutes in the contest, the Knights charged with 45 and Willmar hit with 49.

Willmar (10-10-1) plays the Helena (Mont.) Bighorns at 12:15 p.m. Tuesday at the Schwan’s Super Rink.

New England is 10-13-0.
