Parkside 3, Davenport 0
The Rangers finished the weekend with a match on the road against the Davenport Panthers.  The Panthers handed the Rangers their first loss of the season when these two teams met earlier this year, and the Rangers were looking for payback today. The Rangers offense shined as two early goals gave them the lead they needed to come away with a win.

HOW IT HAPPENED
The Rangers offense opened up quickly, with senior Max Ludwig scoring a goal in the 14^th minute, coming off a pass from redshirt-junior Nikola Kesich.  Later in the 14^th minute, Kesich teamed up with junior Rade Novakovich and found redshirt-freshman Matteo Quintero for another goal to put the Rangers up by two.  In the 68^th minute, junior goalkeeper Alexandre Durand made a brilliant sliding save, and cleared the ball down field.  His clear went across the field, and bounced straight to Novakovich, who was able to shoot and score the third and final goal of the match.

STATWORTHY
Ludwig tallied his sixth goal of the season, while Quintero earned his third.  Novakovich earned his 15^th goal on the year, and his eighth assist on the year.  This brings his point total to 38 on the season.  Kesich earned two assists which brings his assist total to seven.  Durand, tallying his first assist on the year, earned five saves in goal as he earned his second straight shutout.
