GREENVILLE, SC – Tonight the Greenville Road Warriors welcome the Reading Royals to the BI-LO Center for the first of back-to-back games heading into the Christmas Holiday.

The Road Warriors (15-8-1) host Reading (10-12-5) tonight for the third of six scheduled meetings between the clubs. Fans can follow the action by watching live on America One or listening at greenvilleroadwarriors.com. Greenville is looking for its first win of the season against Reading after suffering 3-2 and 7-3 setbacks in Greenville on October 15 and November 4, respectively. The Royals, meanwhile, have won two in a row and three of their last four after enduring a nine-game winless streak from November 18 to Dec. 8. The Road Warriors are averaging 45.5 shots per game against Reading this season but have been limited to five goals in the two games.
