Michalski had four goals and an assist, Kevin Donovan had three assists and Ryan Allen scored twice for Eastchester, which will travel to No. 2 Rye in the Class  C quarterfinals on Monday.

Eastchester took a 3-0 lead after the first quarter before tenth-seeded Edgemont clamped down on Michalski in the second. Mark Perlman scored a pair of goals before halftime and Matteo Scarelli (11 saves) was terrific in the cage as Edgemont went into the break down 3-2.
