Still in the first, Neuqua’s Jake Boudeau cleans up the loose puck and takes the shot but this time Warrior Justin Howard slides from post to post to make the save.
Warriors on the power player with 8 minutes left in the first. Will Troy takes a shot from the point and it deflects off two different players and then in to the back of the net to open up scoring.

2 minutes left in the second now and Zach Pearce getting a penalty shot after getting taken down on a breakaway. He makes up for lost time and gets the puck past Crokin to extend the warriors lead 3-1.
Third Period
16 minutes left in the game and Zac Pearce getting his second goal on the night as he gets the puck right in front of the net and fires. WV leading 4-1 now.
