The St. Louis Ambush started off strong and took the lead early in the first quarter when Jeff DiMaria found the back of the net. However, moments later, team captain Vahid Assadpour tied the match 1-1 to end the quarter.

Shortly after the start of the second quarter, Gibson scored his first one of the night before Elvir Kafedzic equalized the match followed by Bryan Perez' only tally of the evening. Assadpour and Matingou notched goals in the second stanza to take a 5-3 lead to the locker rooms.

Four consecutive goals from rookie Kiel Williams, Matingou, Gibson and Brian Harris meant the seventeenth straight victory for the Central Division Champions ending the third quarter with a 9-4 score.
