CINCINNATI, OH - The Gladiators squandered two third period leads in a 4-3 shootout loss to the Cincinnati Cyclones Saturday night at the US Bank Arena.

After a scoreless first former Gladiator Scott Lehman put Cincy on top at the 11:01 mark in the second, beating Chris Carrozzi with a quick wrister.

The Gladiators even things up early in the third, as Pat Galivan and Mike Forney set up Andy Brandt on the powerplay at the 3:22 mark.

Gwinnett took the lead a little over ten minutes later as Pat Galivan scored his third goal in the past two days with assists to Forney and Brandt to give the Glads their first lead on the man advantage.

Cincinnati answered only 20 seconds later, as a Gladiator defensive zone turnover led to Dylan Hunter's third of the season to tie the game at two.

At 16:19 Gwinnett again took the lead, as Dan Kissel fired a wrist shot under the glove of goaltender Marc Chevrie for a 3-2 Glads lead, assists to McKenzie and Phillips.

Yet again, Cincinnati tied the game. With just 2:10 left Dustin Sproat scored his first goal of the season on a rebound in front to tie the game at 3-3.

Chevrie shutdown Gwinnet in the shootout, while Barrett Ehgoetz managed to beat Chris Carrozzi to seal a 4-3 Cincy win.

The Cyclones have now won four in a row after going winless in seven straight. Gwinnett had a three-game winning streak snapped.
