GREENVILLE, SC – Tonight the Greenville Road Warriors continue their assault on the South Division’s top teams as they host the South Carolina Stingrays. The puck drops at 7:35 p.m. at the BI-LO Center.
The Road Warriors (12-8-0) host South Carolina (12-8-1) tonight for the fifth of 16 scheduled meetings between the clubs. Fans can follow the action by watching live on America One or listening at www.greenvilleroadwarriors.com. The Stingrays have been a very common guest at the BI-LO Center recently as, including tonight, the Road Warriors have played four of their last five home games against South Carolina. If the Road Warriors can hold serve at home and come away with a regulation win it would propel them past South Carolina into second place in the South Division. Greenville comes in as one of the hotter teams in the ECHL with seven wins in its last 10 while South Carolina has lost two straight and six of its last 10.
Tonight is a Spinx Family Four-Pack night with the Road Warriors. Fans coming to the game can get four tickets, four hot dogs, four fountain drinks, and four bags of chips for just $48!
