In the Round of 16, Purinton fell to Pennsylvania’s Andrew Cerniglia 14-4 via tech in the second period, dropping him to the consolation bracket. Purinton rattled off wins on the back side, downing John Van Schenk Brill 10-0 via tech before beating 5-seed Cam Amine 5-2. Amine is fresh off an NCAA final appearance for Michigan. Purinton then rattled off four straight 10-0 tech wins to finish in third place. Purinton exacted his revenge
over Cerniglia as he beat him 10-0 in 2:30 in the consolation semis. Then in the third-place match, Purinton teched Peter Pappas of George Mason in the first period. With his 7-1 record and
third-place finish, Purinton earned a spot at the World Team Trials and looks to be a rapidly improving guy on the senior level.
