The Jackals will be home on Friday, Apr. 6, Saturday, Apr. 7 (if necessary), and Monday, Apr. 9 (if necessary) for the final three games of the first round after going on the road for the opening two contests against all opponents besides the Wheeling Nailers.

All first round home games will begin at 7:05 p.m.
