Wood had also scored Liggett’s first goal just 1:18 into the game, and its fourth tally late in the second period. In between, he assisted on goals by linemates Stephen Wheatley and Jake Kolk, giving him a five-point night. Maksim Johns earned the victory in goal. Jack Waldo had two goals and two assists for Gabriel Richard. With the win, Liggett raised its record to 11-4-0. Gabriel Richard is 11-2-0. The consolation game between Allen Park Cabrini-Riverview (7-8-1) and Madison Heights Bishop Foley United* (9-7-1) ended in a 4-4 tie.
