Allen (33-23-5-0) scored early and often in the first period. Harrison Blaisdell opened the scoring 5:31 in, before Danny Katic doubled the advantage on the power play four minutes later. Colton Hargrove added to the lead with 8:58 remaining in the first period as the Americans took a 3-0 lead.

South Carolina (40-19-1-2) showed life quickly after Allen's third tally. Justin Nachbaur, playing in his 200th professional game, jammed home his second goal of the weekend cutting the deficit to two, 3-1.

In the second period, the Americans built the lead back to three on Blaisdell's second goal at the 7:57 mark before Michael Gildon and Colby McAuley added tallies in the final six minutes of the frame to give the visitors a 6-1 lead through 40 minutes.

Just over three-and-a-half minutes into the third, Gildon scored his second of the day putting Allen up by six and finishing off a 7-1 victory for the Americans.

South Carolina begins a five-game road trip on Wednesday night against the Idaho Steelheads in Boise, Idaho. Puck drop is set for 9:10 p.m. EDT from the Idaho Central Arena.
