Logan Brown, Matt Tomkins, and Dylan Duke were the game’s three stars. Brown (6’7″) contributed two goals while Jack Finley (6’6″) opened the scoring for the Crunch. Sad that Mile Roelens (6’7″) is down in Orlando or there might’ve been more tall goal mayhem.
The Crunch needed this win to maintain their scant five point advantage over Belleville for the final playoff spot in the division, although the Senators still hold five games in hand. The club really needs a sustained winning streak with this first choice lineup during the 4 Nations tournament.
