Nicholas Petit and Ayden Luschen help goalie Kolton Saude make an important save during Adapted Floor Hockey's January 13 home game against Buffalo-Monticello-STMA. The Spuds prevailed in a nailbiter, knocking off the Coyotes 7-6 in overtime. Moorhead is back home on Thursday for their second-last regular season home game when they host St. Cloud.
