The Fort Wayne Spacemen Elite battled hard but fell 3-2 in overtime against a strong Crush Elite squad. Despite the loss, the Spacemen picked up an important point in the standings.
After trailing heading into the third period, Fort Wayne mounted a comeback with goals from Schackart and Roth to force extra time. However, Alex Yakimenka netted the overtime winner for the Crush, who continue to sit at the top in the division standings.
The Spacemen Elite will look to regroup and build on their strong third period push as they prepare to host the Metro Jets Elite next Saturday at the Icehouse.
