ECHL Kalamazoo Wings

Countdown to Face-Off

November 26, 2010 - ECHL (ECHL)
Kalamazoo Wings News Release


For the second straight night, the Kalamazoo Wings will tangle with the Greenville Road Warriors. Last night, Greenville used a three-goal third period effort to secure a 7-4 victory at Wings Stadium. After this evening, the teams will meet three more times, including a February 12th contest at Wings Stadium.

Failing to move closer to the top spot in the division yesterday over the idle Cincinnati Cyclones, the K-Wings enter tonight tied with the Wheeling Nailers for second place in the North Division, three points behind the Cyclones.

Earning back-to-back victories to start their four-game road swing, Greenville has climbed to within one point of the Gwinnett Gladiators for first place in the South Division. The Road Warriors will conclude their grueling four games in five nights trip on Sunday at the WesBanco Arena against the Nailers.
