The Komets looked to bounce back after a tough loss on Wednesday as they hosted Iowa at the Coliseum on Friday.
With Austin Magera in the penalty box for tripping, the Heartlanders jumped in front with a power play goal at 1:08 for the only score of the first period.
In the second period, defenseman Josh Atkinson notched his first goal as a Komet at 3:57, with assists going to Dru Krebs and Blake Murray to tie the game.
With time winding down in the third period, Atkinson struck again at 15:09 as Nathan Day turned aside 25 Iowa shots to seal the 2-1 win.
