Amarillo, TX - The Amarillo Wranglers defeated the Oklahoma Warriors 4-2 on Saturday night at the Budweiser Bull Pen to win their third straight game and complete the weekend sweep of the Warriors.

After winning 5-3 on Friday night, the Wranglers were in search of a weekend sweep and their third win in a row on Saturday night as they continued their push for the Robertson Cup Playoffs. Making his third consecutive start since coming over in a trade from Springfield, Matt Schoephoerster was once again the man between the pipes for the Wranglers. Oklahoma turned to Jeffrey Kreidler in goal - making his 2nd NAHL start - as they looked to snap their six game losing streak.

The Wranglers wasted no time putting the puck into the back of the net, as just 2:32 into the first period, Morley Phillips connected with Cole Saterdalen for the opening score. Saterdalen's 2nd goal as a Wrangler from Phillips and Jacob Miller put the Wranglers up 1-0 early. The Wranglers outshot the Warriors 12-6 in the first period as they took the 1-0 lead into the first intermission.

Opening the scoring for the Warriors was Riley Fast on the power play 8:01 into the period from Ethan Gonyeau. Gonyeau took the initial shot as Fast deflected it in for the tying score. Just 3:38 after Fast scored, Ben Likness buried a shot from Mason Wright and Jack McClellan to make it 2-1 Warriors.
