Mississippi Sea Wolves News Release
NORTH CHARLESTON, SC - Lance Monych scored a pair of power-play goals for the Mississippi Sea Wolves, but the South Carolina Stingrays exploded for four goals in the first 10 minutes of the second period as they defeated Mississippi before a crowd of 3,602 at the North Charleston Coliseum.
Andrew Gordon got the Stingrays on the board first, beating Sea Wolves goaltender Morgan Cey with a wrist shot at 4:42 of the first period. The Sea Wolves would even the score when Lance Monych tipped a shot from Gio Flamminio past Stingrays goalie Josh Johnson at 14:18 of the first.
