COLUMBUS, GA - The Danbury Hat Tricks (28-14-3, 82 pts) fell 3-2 in a tight-game against the Columbus River Dragons (23-12-5, 74 pts) on Saturday night.

After a comeback-win on Friday night, the Hat Tricks fell behind by two after the first period again on Saturday.

Columbus started the scoring 31 seconds into the game, but Danbury answered with Kodiak Whiteduck (4) scoring on a feed from Tobias Odjick.

The Dragons responded with two more goals late in the first to carry a two-goal lead into the second.
