Mitchell Miller became the first defenseman in USHL history to reach the 70-point plateau following last night's game. Miller is now three goals away from tying the Storm's single-season record for most goals scored. The record is currently held by Ratislav Spirko (2003-04) and Chris Wilkie (2014-15). Each player netted 35 goals during a single regular season. Jeremy Wilmer notched two assists during last night's victory and is now six points away from tying the Storm's single-season points record of 83 held by Jaden Schwartz (2009-10).

Sioux Falls (16-31-3-3) lost for the third consecutive time in last night's 4-0 road loss to the Storm at the Viaero Center. Friday's game was the third time this season that the Stampede has been held off the scoreboard during a game.

Sioux Falls dropped to 1-5-0-1 in head-to-head matchups against the Storm this season in last night's 4-0 loss. The Stampede will host the Storm for the final game of this year's nine-game season series on April 16th at the Denny Sanford Premier Center. The Stampede will complete a three-game weekend on the road tomorrow afternoon in a matchup with the Sioux City Musketeers at the Tyson Events Center.
