The Columbus River Dragons scored three goals in the second period en route to a 4-0 win over the Mississippi Sea Wolves on Sunday at the Mississippi Gulf Coast Coliseum.
After a scoreless first period, the River Dragons broke through on Ryan Hunter's 10th goal of the season just 1:26 into the period. Justin MacDonald followed with his second of the year from Hunter and Kyle Moore under three minutes later to make it 2-0.
