The Rangers had 19 draw controls to CSU Pueblo's nine.  
 
POSTGAME COMMENT
 
"It was another tough game," said CSU Pueblo Head Coach Monica Potter. "We held them for a little bit, but their run at the end of the first half really put us behind. Now it's time to take what we learned and grow from them as we focus on these next two games."

SUMMARY

The Rangers then went on a seven-goal run to double their score and lead 14-3. Eller scored the final goal of the half with seven ticks remaining and the Pack went into halftime trailing 14-4. 
 
The ThunderWolves scored once in the second half on a Mee player-up goal that was assisted by Huchette.
