MONROE, LA - The Columbus River Dragons continued their late-season surge with a 4-2 win over the Monroe Moccasins on Friday night at Monroe Civic Center, strengthening their hold on third place in the Continental Division standings.

Columbus (26-15-4-4-2, 94 points) has now won its last six straight against Monroe. The Moccasins (18-22-8-1-3, 71 points) remain in the playoff hunt but are running out of time with four games left in the regular season. Dustin Jesseau gave Monroe an early lead, scoring just 1:50 into the first period off a deflection. Columbus responded at 11:01 when Cody Wickline buried the tying goal from the slot.

The River Dragons pulled ahead in the second. Alex Storjohann scored at 7:32, and just 1:14 later, Loik Plouffe extended the lead to 3-1, netting his first FPHL goal.. Trygve Many Guns brought the Moccasins back within one at 10:30 of the third period, but Monroe couldn't find the equalizer despite a 38-28 edge in shots.

Storjohann sealed the game with an empty-net goal, his second of the night with 1:07 remaining in regulation. The teams will meet one final time in the regular season tomorrow night at 7:00pm.
