WICHITA, Kan. - Trevor Gorsuch stopped 48 shots, six different players found the back of the net and Wichita knocked off Worcester on Saturday night, 6-2, at INTRUST Bank Arena.

At 6:01, Joe Carroll increased the lead to 2-0. He put back a rebound during a scramble near the net that hit off a Railers' skate and trickled over the goal line.
Colin Jacobs cut the lead to one at 11:55. He worked through the slot and fired a shot past Gorsuch for his second of the season.
Nolan Kneen tallied his first of the year at 17:20 to re-gain a two-goal advantage for Wichita. Dickman left a drop pass to him in the high slot. Kneen cut to the net and beat Muse to the short side to make it 3-1.
Burke made it 4-1 at 18:40 when he redirected a pass from Austin Heidemann near the left post for his second of the season.
The only goal of the second came from Anthony Repaci with less than a second to go in the frame. He caught a pass near the right hashmark in between the circles and beat Gorsuch under the blocker on the power play.
Wichita added two markers in the third to skate away with the victory. Stinil tallied his 10th of the year at 16:15 off a beautiful pass from Dickman.
