Cohen Beck's school record scoring performance was the difference for Reeths-Puffer in Wednesday's regional play-in game, defeating Coopersville 16-12 to advance to the regional quarterfinal.
Beck poured in nine goals, which according to the Rockets' athletic website is a first in program history. It also spearheaded R-P's best offensive performance of the year at the perfect time.
The Rockets (4-13) now advance to face the regional's top seed, Forest Hills Northern, Friday on the road.
Ian Wright was also key to R-P's efforts and put in four goals. Owen Greiner had a team-best four assists.
