Forwards Chad Theuer and Scott Cameron each scored twice as the Dayton Bombers defeated the Toledo Storm 4-3 at the Ervin J. Nutter Center Saturday night in front of a crowd of 5,538. The Bombers are 2-0-1 in their last three games.

Theuer opened the game with a goal at 4:26 of the first period. Defenseman Sean Connolly skated behind the Toledo net, then found Theuer in the slot. Theuer beat goalie Jimi St. John from in close. After Morten Ask tied the game at one for Toledo 14:42 into the first, Scott Cameron answered at 18:43 following a strong play by Brian Ridolfi to forge into the Toledo zone.

Cameron, who has three goals and one assist in two games since returning from AHL Syracuse, made it 3-1 on the power play at 19:12 of the second, but Toledo struck twice in the first 39 seconds of the third period to tie the game on goals by Ask and Alexander Jacques.

But Theuer, who also had an assist, gave the Bombers the lead for good at 5:02 of the third. Jason Deskins moved in on a two-on-one. His shot was denied by St. John, but Theuer put in the rebound for his tenth goal of the season.

Goalie Bujar Amidovski made 36 saves for the Bombers in the victory.
