The San Diego Gulls improve to 5-0 at home and 7-1 overall with a 3-2 overtime win over the San Antonio Rampage.

Nick Ritchie opened the scoring with a goal in the 1st period. He then closed the contest with the game-winning tally in overtime to give the Gulls the 3-2 victory.

Ritchie leads the team in points scored with 8. Sandwiched around Ritchie’s two goals was a 2nd period score by Shea Theodore.

The Rampage rebounded in the 3rd to erase a 2-0 deficit and force the extra period.

Gulls goalie John Gibson was solid in the first two periods making a ton of key saves. The penalty kill unit was strong around him, killing off multiple man-advantages for San Antonio.

The Gulls face the LA Kings’ AHL affiliate – the Ontario Reign – on the road Thursday evening.

After a Saturday contest in San Jose, the Gulls return home to the Valley View Casino Center for a Wednesday contest against Bakersfield.
