Game Recap - Cologne vs. Rome

In a thrilling Game 7, the Cologne Express captured the S90 Renaissance Cup by defeating the Rome Gladiators by a final score of 4-2. Cologne jumped out to an early lead with goals from Martin Kemp and Sjin while outshooting Rome 15-7 in the opening frame, but the Gladiators would not go down without a fight in such a big game. Swinsola scored early in the 2nd period to cut the lead to 2-1, though Kemp would extend the lead back to 2 just past the halfway point of the game. The Gladiators got an early 3rd period goal as well to continue to make it close. The third period saw plenty of action with 34 shots on goal in total - 23 for Cologne and 11 for Rome as they tried to mount a rally. They could not get a third puck past Clark, however, and Al Land scored the insurance marker with 2 minutes left in the game. It was a strong performance from both goalies named Clark, as Clark (Cologne) made 32 saves on 34 shots while Travis Clark (Rome) made 48 saves on 52.
