Nichols netminder Ryan Casey stopped 13 shots in the first and 14 in the second, but the Colonels potted a pair to extend their lead to 4-1 on goals from Josh Kamrass and Payden Benning.

Benning added a power-play goal at 6:18 of the third before the teams combined for seven penalties. Nichols couldn’t convert on two man-up chances, and held the Colonels scoreless in their final three power plays.

Casey finished the night with 37 saves, while Steven Jakiel earned the win for Curry with 16 saves.
