GREENVILLE, S.C. â The Greenville Grrrowl of the East Coast Hockey League has announced a time change for an upcoming home game on Tuesday, February 18, 2003 against the Cincinnati Cyclones.

"This will be a unique opportunity for school children in the upstate to learn how their everyday lessons relate to the great sport of hockey", said Carl Scheer, Chairman/CEO of ScheerSports, Inc. "Our players come from many places around the world, and the game of hockey has many facets that can be used to teach all fans in attendance. We look forward to hosting this first-time event in the BI-LO Center."
