Atlanta Gladiators News Release


The Gwinnett Gladiators announced today the playing dates for their South Division Semi-Final series of the 2006 Kelly Cup Playoffs. The series will have identical home games for the Gladiators in each scenario, but the road games will differ depending on the Gladiators opponent for the series.

Gwinnett will open the Division Semi-Final series at home on Saturday, April 15th at 7:35 p.m. Game 2 of the series will be on Easter Sunday, April 16th at 4:05 p.m. The Gladiators will play Game 5 of the series, if necessary, at the Arena at Gwinnett Center on Sunday, April 23rd at 4:05 p.m.

As the top team in the South Division during the regular season, Gwinnett will face the lowest remaining seed in the Division Semi-Finals.
