After a scoreless first half, Brent Rasmussen, Dusty Davis, and Hunter Grace had goals for the Vikings. Dylan Comfort made six saves in goal for OV.

They didn’t get a lot of shots, but they were quicker to the ball and played well. In the second half, we shifted gears and took over. We were able to get a number of shots, and obviously put three in the net. It was a nice win for us, especially coming off a disappointing loss to McGraw.”
