They Said it: Brayden Watts: "I give a lot of credit to my linemates. They are making it really easy for me to play my game and help our line create offense and we obviously didn't get the 2 points we wanted, but any point is a good point. We are just taking it game by game and trying our best to come out with a win every night to put ourselves in a good spot come April."

Spencer Asuchak: "It was a great crowd tonight and they kept us going throughout the game. We wanted that extra point, but to take three of four against a first-place team was very positive. I was glad to contribute on the score sheet. Thank you to all the fans who reached out to wish me a happy birthday."

Three Stars:

1. ALN - E. Brodzinski

2. TUL - C. Roulette

3. ALN - S. Asuchak
