GREENVILLE, SC – Tonight the Greenville Road Warriors wrap up their home schedule for 2011 by hosting the Florida Everblades at 7:35 p.m. at the BI-LO Center.
The Road Warriors (16-9-2) host Florida (15-13-2) tonight for the eighth of 11 scheduled meetings between the clubs. Fans can follow the action by watching live on America One or listening at greenvilleroadwarriors.com. Greenville is playing its final home game of the season against the Everblades tonight. The Road Warriors have built a 3-1-1 record in the previous five meetings, but Florida came away with an improbable win the last time the teams met. Rylan Galiardi scored a tying goal with seven seconds left in regulation and after a scoreless overtime Florida’s Pat Nagle out-dueled Jasion Missiaen for a 1-0 win in a seven round shootout. The Road Warriors are 4-2-1 against the Everblades this season.
