2026 GOERNE CUP TOURNAMENT & TEAM MVPs 🏆

TOURNAMENT MVP: BYE WEEK - RYAN ELLIOTT

Championship teams need someone who can slam the door when it matters most, and Ryan Elliott delivered all weekend for Bye Week.

Elliott was outstanding between the pipes throughout the tournament. He saved some of his best work for the biggest moments, helping lead Bye Week all the way to the championship and a thrilling 7-6 overtime victory over the Aspen Kings in the final.

In a tournament filled with close games and outstanding goalie play, Elliott consistently came up with the saves his team needed when the margin for error was at its smallest.

A championship performance from start to finish and your 2026 Goerne Cup Tournament MVP. 🏆

The Ohio Power Rankings are here, highlighting the top teams from 22 Men’s clubs and 11 Women’s clubs competing across the state this summer.

The East Coast Ballers continued their dominance in the state by winning the elite division in Cleveland. Though BBQ Chicken is not far behind. This was an exciting championship that could have tilted either way. In CBUS, we saw regular season #2 seed, Tiger’s Wood, claim the Championship in a close finals match up against the favored and undefeated Crusader’s. We’d love to see these top squads duke it out in our national championship tournament because there’s no doubt that OH Lax is among North America’s best. lLet’s also not forget about the Hog Rider’s who quietly and methodically took Cincy.

On the women’s side, the Goal Diggerz took the top spot, but don’t sleep on Cleveland, This if For You, who at 1-5 in the regular season, made a playoff run worthy of LeBron.

Congratulations to every team that competed this season.
