Cincinnati, OH - The Cincinnati Cyclones (3-1-1-0) earned a 5-3 win over the Florida Everblades on Wednesday night. Forward Jesse Schultz led the way with a pair of goals and an assist, while defensemen Justin Baudry and Cody Sol each added lone markers to earn their second win in a row.

The Cyclones struck early and often in this one, as just 5:55 into the opening period, Schutz sent a pass to Baudry who launched in a shot from the high-slot area to put Cincinnati on top, 1-0. That lead became 2-0 roughly three and a half minutes later when forward Justin Vaive sent a pass from below the goal line to Gosselin out front, and he tapped it by Florida goaltender Ken Appleby to give Cincinnati a 2-0 lead.

The Cyclones capped off their big opening period with 29 seconds left while on a 5-on-3 power play when Schultz took a feed from forward Pascal Aquin , skated into the high slot and wristed a shot past Appleby to give Cincinnati a 4-0 lead after 20 minutes.

Schultz was not finished, as at the 12:27 mark of the second period, forward Darik Angeli took a shot that deflected off his skate and in for his second goal of the evening to put Cincinnati on top, 4-0.

The 'Clones took their 4-0 lead into the locker room after the second, and in the third Florida's offense came alive a quickly trimmed the deficit to a goal as forwards Logan Roe, Zach Magwood, and John McCarron potted three goals in a span of 10:27 in the third to pull to within one, 4-3.

Cincinnati withstood the barrage from the Everblades, and with one minute remaining and facing an extra attacker, Sol threw a shot into the open net to seal Cincinnati's 5-3 victory.

The third saw the chippiness pick up in the final frame, as the teams combined for 64 third-period penalties, including fights from Vaive and Florida's Michael Downing, and Sol and the Everblades Kyle Neuber.
