Precast Pours Concrete Defense, weathers Tornadoes 3-2
If you blinked early in the second period, you probably missed the Tornadoes doing their best natural disaster impression. Bazil Cardamone struck twice in a lightning-fast 41-second span—first cashing in an apple from Brendan Budnik (who stretched his point streak to three games) at 12:58, and then potting an unassisted beauty at 12:17. Just like that, the Tornadoes had a 2-0 lead and looked ready to blow the roof off the rink.
However, Oklahoma Precast is named after solid construction materials for a reason. Instead of crumbling, Precast laid a fresh foundation later in the frame. Curtis Tucker ignited the comeback with a goal at 5:32 off a crisp dish from Zack Wade. Less than forty seconds later, Matthew Rankin knotted the game at 2-2, finishing off helpers from Nicholas Power and Andrew Doepp.
With all the momentum on their side, Precast completed the turnaround early in the third period. Elliott Langford fed the hot hand, Curtis Tucker, who buried his second tally of the night at 12:31 to give Oklahoma Precast a 3-2 lead. That single goal proved to be the game-winner, as Precast locked it down the rest of the way to secure the tight victory.
