Shock Have A Frightful Night In Loss To Falcons

 The Fresno Falcons enjoyed a five-goal second period as part of a run of nine unanswered goals, defeating the Oceanside Shock 10-1 on Halloween night at Frontwave Arena in Oceanside. Hugo Koch led the Falcons (6-1, 12 points) with a hat trick and two assists, with Houston Wilson adding a brace. Vladimir Fadeev scored the lone goal for Oceanside.

The Shock (1-6-2, 4 points) dropped their sixth straight contest and fell to 0-4 against Fresno this season. The game was littered with penalties, including fifteen against Oceanside, and the Falcons took advantage with four power-play goals. After an early 1-1 tie 10:26 into the first period, Fresno pulled away for good with a five-goal second, including two goals in thirty seconds at 8:50 and 9:20, and two goals in 12 seconds at 19:21 and 19:33.
