Florida doubled the lead on Zach Uens' second goal of the season at the 9:33 mark of the second frame. Uens lifted a shot over the glove of a screened Stevenson for the 2-0 advantage.
Xavier Cormier expanded the Everblades' lead four minutes later as he shoveled a loose puck into an open net. Cormier buried his seventh goal of the year past a scrum of players for the 3-0 lead to close out the second period.
South Carolina got on the board at the 1:32 mark of the final period as Anthony Del Gaizo sniped his 14th goal of the year. Carson Vance held the attacking zone and fed Del Gaizo where the forward gave the Stingrays their lone goal of the contest.
