Tonight the Greenville Road Warriors will look to respond to the Kalamazoo Wings who won the first of two meetings between the clubs this week on Thursday night. It’s the second of six straight at home for the Road Warriors.
The Road Warriors (27-18-3, 57 pts.) host Kalamazoo (26-15-5, 57 pts.) today for the fourth, and final, meeting this season between the clubs. Fans can follow the action by watching live on America One or listening at Greenvilleroadwarriors.com. The Road Warriors are 1-2-0 this season against the Wings and 4-4-0 overall in their history against Kalamazoo. Greenville will have to slow down the high-flying Kalamazoo offense to come away with two points tonight. The Wings are averaging 6.5 goals in their two wins over Greenville this season, but in the road Warriors’ victory they held Kalamazoo to two scores. Greenville is giving up an average of 2.95 goals per game at the BI-LO Center this season.
Come out and join the Road Warriors for their second-annual Scout Night. Last season it was the biggest crowd of the year with 6,388 in attendance, and this year is promising to be bigger and better. Group tickets still remain available for your group of 10 or more with groups getting a discount off of the box office price and preferred seating based on availability.
