Columbus River Dragons News Release
MONROE, LA. - The Columbus River Dragons were defeated by the Monroe Moccasins by a final score 3-0 on Saturday night, at the Monroe Civic Center in Monroe, Louisiana.
Trevor Babin received the nod in net for Columbus, while on the other side of the ice for Monroe was Tyler Masternak.
Andrew Bellant scored the opening goal of the game after a wild sequence. Kyle Moore got clipped up high in the defensive zone and was laid out. After getting his wits about him, he tried to defend the play, but Tucker Scantlebury hit the crossbar, and Bellant picked up the loose change for the goal.
Monroe extended their advantage early in the second period, as Jared Christy battled at the top of the crease, hacking and whacking at Trevor Babin before finally forcing the puck through to make it a two goal game.
The Moccasins struck again just 42 seconds later, as Hagen Moe, who scored seven goals against Columbus during the regular season, finished off a rush by beating Babin glove side to extend the lead.
Babin made 42 saves in the loss for Columbus, while Masternak earned the victory for Monroe, denying all 39 bids to his cage.
