GREENVILLE, SC - The Greenville Road Warriors announced today that the team has resigned forwards Brandon Wong and Tim Coffman.

"I am very excited to resign with the Road Warriors," said Brandon Wong, who'll be entering his third season with the team. "I love playing in Greenville and look forward to trying to bring a championship to the city." Teammate Tim Coffman echoed Wong's enthusiasm and love the city. "The fans, the community and the Road Warriors Organization all made signing for another year the easiest hockey decision I've ever had to make. I've never been more excited for an upcoming hockey season."

In 2011-2012, Wong tallied career highs in goals, assists and points. He led the team in goals with 31 and finished second on the team in points with 61. Wong was also one of the Road Warriors' top penalty killers, notching a team leading three short-handed goals during the season. "Brandon is a great professional. He brings leadership on and off the ice," said Road Warriors Coach Dean Stork. "His work ethic is off the charts, which leads to his great success in producing offense for the Road Warriors."

Tim Coffman joined the Road Warriors on an Amateur Tryout in February last season. In 14 games with the team, he registered three goals and two assists. Before going pro, the Pennsylvania native spent four seasons playing Division III hockey at Utica College. Coffman led his team in scoring in three of his four years at Utica, totaling 139 points (58G, 81A) in 98 games. "Here is a great person who brings an element of speed to the Road Warriors," said Coach Stork when asked on Coffman's impact on the team. "It will be exciting to see what Tim can do in a full season for the Road Warriors."
