New Mexico Scorpions News Release


[ RIO RANCHO, N.M.]-The Scorpions are proud to announce Shawn Bennett has won the night in the Scorpions' suite for the Globetrotters game. Bennett and nine of his favorite people will be sitting in the team suite when the Globetrotters play inside the Santa Ana Star Center tonight.

By purchasing a flex plan for the remainder of the 2007-08 season, Bennett was entered into a random drawing for this once in a lifetime opportunity.

Celebrating their 82nd consecutive year of touring the world, the Harlem Globetrotters have played in 118 countries on six continents, entertaining over 125 million fans and crossing barriers between cultures, societies and people from all walks of life. The organization is one of only six teams to be inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame.

Scorpions flex plans are a great and affordable way to catch selected home games. Pick at least six games you want to see and be guaranteed the same seat for every game at a discounted price. Plans start at the low price of $63 and include great benefits.

MacInnis Activated/Holladay Released

In roster news, the Scorpions will activate Aaron MacInnis from the injured reserve in time for Friday's home game against Odessa. To make room, defenseman Jay Holladay has been released.

Holladay appeared in 34 games collecting four assist and 34 penalty minutes. The rookie showed constant improvement but fell victim to the roster limitations.

New Mexico returns home for a pair of weekend games starting on Friday, January 18th. When the Scorpions take the ice versus Odessa , they will wear specialty jerseys that will be auctioned off after the game to benefit the American Cancer Society.

On Saturday, January 19th the Special Olympics will be recognized when the Scorpions host Wichita. The first 1,500 children inside the Santa Ana Star Center receive a Jr. Jersey courtesy of Peoples Mortgage. Prior to the game, the New Mexico Ice Holes will play the Media at 4 p.m. to benefit Special Olympics New Mexico. Fans holding a ticket for the Scorps game get in free to the Ice Holes charity game.
