Kearney, Nebraska- Jesse Martin and Calle Ridderwall both converted penalty shots as the host Tri-City Storm defeated the RoughRiders 4-3 in a shootout Friday night.

The Riders were on the power play when Seidel tied the game at three by burying a cross-crease pass from Doug Jones with 5:46 left in regulation.

Jesse Martin scored a pair of rebound goals just over four minutes apart in the first period to turn a 1-0 Rider lead into a 2-1 Storm advantage.

Calle Ridderwall's power play goal at 8:31 of the second period extend the Tri-City lead to two goals.

The Storm broke loose only after Aaron Bogosian turned a Jacob Cepis centering pass into the game's only goal at 4:11 of the first period.
