Richmond Renegades News Release
Richmond, VA â The Richmond Renegades traded second year center Jerry Gernander to the Baton Rouge Kingfish in exchange for the rights to defenseman Mark Thompson.
Gernander had six goals and 15 points in 57 games with the âGades last season. Thompson, a three year pro, had three goals, 11 points, and 86 PIM while splitting last season between Greenville and Baton Rouge.

The âGades open the 2002-'03 season Friday, October 11 at Trenton. Richmond opens at home on Friday, October 18 vs. Charlotte. Season tickets are now on sale for the Renegades 2002-'03 season. For more information please call the Renegades office at 643-7825.
