Evansville Thunderbolts News Release


Evansville, In.: Despite a two-goal output from Aiden Wagner, strong penalty killing, and solid goaltending from Brendahn Brawley, the Thunderbolts came up just short against the Storm by a 3-2 score on Saturday at Ford Center. The Thunderbolts' next home game will be on Sunday, March 10th against the Pensacola Ice Flyers, puck drop at 3:00pm CT.

Wagner gave Evansville the first lead of the night at 9:54 of the first period with a wrap-around shot, assisted by Bronson Adams. A late first period surge by Quad City allowed them to take a 2-1 lead with goals from Cole Golka at 17:17 and Weiland Parrish at 19:52. Wagner tied the game back up for Evansville at 4:00 of the second period, as he sniped a rebound into the net off a face-off win from Mark Zhukov for Wagner's second goal of the night. Evansville killed off a Storm power play a few minutes later, however the Storm continued the momentum they picked up and regained the lead as Tommy Tsicos scored at 9:24. Despite outshooting Quad City 11 to 9 in the third period, Evansville was unable to find the tying goal, the closest attempt coming on a late power play as Myles Abbate hit the crossbar with about 3 minutes remaining.
