On Sunday the Indians opened the scoring in the first period when Cody Colegrove scored on a rebound, from Chase Tallaire and Travis Blackhurst for the 1-0 lead, Caesars came right back to even the score two minutes later.  In the second period Little Caesars took the lead midway through period for the 2-1 lead at the end of the second period.  The third period turned out to be all Indians as the they scored three unanswered goals.  First Garth Wickham scored on a power play with assists going to Spencer Samppala and Jeff Rahilly, Then Cody Colegrove scored his second of the game and the eventually game winning goal from Wickham and Cam Parrott.  Hudson Troyer added an insurance goal late in the third from Colegrove and Tallaire for the 4-2.  Alex Rairigh was in the pipes for winning.

The Indians will now be on the road next weekend traveling to Detroit for the Honeybaked Invitational Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.
