GREENVILLE TO VISIT KALAMAZOO 

Greenville Road WarriorsBY: Ray Schmitt, Voice of the Greenville Road Warriors

Tonight the Greenville Road Warriors will try to slow down the high-flying Kalamazoo Wings and earn consecutive road victories for the second time this season.

The Road Warriors (9-7-0) visit Kalamazoo (10-5-1) tonight for the first of four scheduled meetings between the clubs. Fans can follow the action by watching live on  America One or listening at  www.greenvilleroadwarriors.com. Tonight is Greenville’s fourth visit in its history to Wings Stadium and the Road Warriors are looking to continue their high-scoring ways here. In the one prior meeting between the clubs in Cincinnati, the Cyclones came away with a 4-3 overtime win on February 25, 2011. The Road Warriors’ defense will be tested by a Wings attack that leads the ECHL with an average of 3.69 goals per game.
