Evansville Thunderbolts News Release


Bloomington, Ill.: Despite a strong first two periods, the Thunderbolts ran into a hot goaltender in Eric Levine and were unable to score, losing 3-0 to the Rivermen in Bloomington on Saturday night.

For tickets, call (812)422-BOLT (2658), go to EvansvilleThunderbolts.com, or visit the Ford Center Ticket Office.

Cale List opened the scoring 3:47 into the first period, and it remained that way for most of the game, with only a couple of power plays for either side that went unconverted through the next 50 minutes or so. Evansville outshot the Rivermen in the first and second periods, but could not find the equalizer. The third period was heavily in Peoria's favor, and the Thunderbolts were outshot 17-4 in the final frame. Evansville paid for the drop in play, as JM Piotrowski scored a power play goal with 4:16 remaining to make it a 2-0 Rivermen lead before scoring again into an empty net goal with 57 seconds remaining to officially put the game away, 3-0 Rivermen. In net, Trevor Gorsuch kept Evansville in the game the whole way, finishing with 31 saves on 33 shots. The Thunderbolts and Rivermen meet once again on Sunday, March 5th at Ford Center.
