Corpus Christi IceRays News Release


The Corpus Christi Rayz return home to the American Bank Center on Saturday and Sunday to host two more big, late-season games against division rivals. On Saturday Night, the Rayz will host the Rio Grande Valley Killer Bees at 7:05pm on Harley Davidson Men's Night, presented by Classic Rock 104.5FM and Time Warner Cable. At the game Coca-Cola presented Rockstar the Drink. Then on Sunday afternoon, the Rayz biggest rivals the Laredo Bucks return at 3:05pm for Caller-Times Family Day. There are only five home games left in the Rayz regular season. Great seats are available for both games at any Ticketmaster outlet or the American Bank Center. For more information, please call the Rayz at (361) 814-PUCK.

On Saturday Night, the Rayz will square-off against the Rio Grande Valley Killer Bees for the first time in a month since the Rayz scored six-third period goals en route to a 7-3 win in Rio Grande Valley. At the end of that game, the Bees sent their fighters onto the ice to attack the Rayz number one line. Saturday's game will be the first meeting since then and the bad blood appears to have boiled to new heights in the Corpus Christi - Rio Grande Valley rivalry. Both teams are in a heated playoff race and tensions should be high in the rematch. On Sunday, it's another battle of the top two teams in the Southern Conference when the Rayz and Bucks collide. Corpus Christi has beaten Laredo three of the last four games. On Caller-Time Family Day, kids 12 and under will receive FREE tickets to the game with the purchase of a regular priced adult ticket. Plus, after the game the Rayz will take the ice with their fans in a free skating session with the public.
