Rapid City, SD– The Allen Americans jumped back into fourth place in the Mountain Division with a 4-1 win over the Rapid City Rush on Thursday night at The Monument in South Dakota.

Americans Postgame Quotes:

Kris Myllari: “This was a huge win for us. We needed to set the tone for the series in Game 1. Chase Perry was dominant between the pipes. He has been playing some great hockey for us.”

Chad Costello: I’m proud of this group and how we played tonight. However, this was just one game. We need to come out with that same passion tomorrow night.
