January 25, 2020 - ECHL (ECHL)
Orlando Solar Bears News Release


ORLANDO, Fla. - Clint Windsor turned in a 28-save performance for his fourth shutout of the season, and the Orlando Solar Bears (18-16-5-1) rolled to its third consecutive win, topping the Greenville Swamp Rabbits (22-21-1-1) by a 3-0 score on Saturday afternoon at the Jewett Orthopaedic Rink at Amway Center.

Seconds after Orlando's first power play of the game expired, Taylor Cammarata gave the Solar Bears a 1-0 led when he received a pass from Cody Donaghey and spun the puck past Jake Theut at 14:11 of the opening period. The goal was Cammarata's ninth of the season.

The Solar Bears prevented the Swamp Rabbits from converting on a 5-on-3 man advantage after Jake Coughler was sent to the box for hooking at 14:35 and Rich Boyd was whistled for a delay of game infraction after clearing the puck above the glass from the defensive zone.

The penalty-kill unit stepped up again in the second period, neutralizing another Greenville 5-on-3 man advantage late in the frame. The Solar Bears dominated puck possession in the second period, outshooting the Swamp Rabbits by a 20-7 margin.

Trevor Olson gave Orlando some breathing room in the third period when Eric Drapluk threw a pass from the corner towards the Greenville net, and as Theut attempted to poke the puck away, Olson swatted home his 12th of the season at the 1:42 mark.

Peter Abbandonato one-timed a pass from Blake Kessel at the right circle past Theut at 9:50 for a power-play goal that capped the scoring.

Windsor's shutout was the goaltender's ninth victory of the season; Theut went 40-for-43 in the loss for Greenville.
