SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (Dakota News Now) - The Sioux Falls Stampede completed a back-to-back sweep over the Team USA NTDP U17s with a 5–2 victory.

The Herd saw goals from Logan Renkowski, Markus Jakobsen, Brock Schultz, and two from Thomas Zocco.

Waylon Esche was in goal again tonight with 23 saves.

The opening period matched the pace and intensity of Friday’s match up.

Sioux Falls wasted no time, scoring just 34 seconds in when Logan Renkowski buried a rebound after the Team USA goalie slid out of position.

Joe McGraw and Zocco picked up the assists.

The Herd earned their first power play at 6:03, but it was cut short by an interference minor to Schultz.

Moments later, newcomer Markus Jakobsen scored his first USHL goal—a one-timer from the slot off a feed from Zocco—to extend the lead.
