The Allen Americans took their third straight game in three days over their rivals, the Texas Brahmas, earning home-ice advantage in at least the opening round of the upcoming Ray Miron Presidents’ Cup playoffs.
The likely opponent for the Americans will be the Brahmas as a near impossible path is in front of Allen to catch the Berry Conference leading Wichita Thunder.
Allen jumped out to a 2-0 lead with a first period goal from Tyler Ludwig and a second period goal from Joshua Hepditch and goaltender Rejean Beauchemin did the rest.
Beauchemin finished with 27 saves earning the win for the third straight game.
Sy Nutkevitch scored the lone goal for the Brahmas who are tied into the third seed in the conference and will await either Allen or Wichita as a playoff opponent.
