Ralston, NE - The Lancers struck first, but an overtime goal by Kevin Charyszyn was the difference as the Black Hawks topped the Lancers 2-1 in overtime Friday night.

Teams traded opportunities in the third but Robbie Beydoun and Tommy Nappier each answered the bell stopping every shot sent their way.
In the overtime period it was Kevin Charyszyn who sent the fans home just shy of a shootout. Charyszyn's ninth of the season came with only 0:30 separating the teams from the shootout.
