Greenville Grrrowl News Release
GREENVILLE, SC â The Greenville Grrrowl opened a 1-0 lead over the first place Columbia Inferno when MIKE HENDERSON scored a powerplay goal at 5:27 of the first period, but the visitor's rallied for a 4-2 victory in front of 6,722 at the BI-LO Center Saturday night.
The Columbia Inferno used 3 powerplay goals and a shorthanded goal to rally past the Grrrowl. Chris St. Croix and Corey Hessler scored powerplay goals 7:01 apart in the second period, and the goal that proved to be the game-winner was scored by Robin Carruthers while Columbia was shorthanded. Shawn Wansborough added an insurance goal at 12:31 of the third period, while JONATHAN GAUTHIER recorded Greenville's other goal in a losing effort. MICHAEL GARNETT recorded 28 saves as Greenville was outshot 32-27.
The official paid attendance figure of 6,722 was short of the world record Greenville attempted to set for the most people dancing to the song "YMCA".
