SWAMP RABBITS SCORE FIRST BUT FALL 3-1 TO EVERBLADES

GREENVILLE S.C – Despite an early goal from Austin Eastman, the Greenville Swamp Rabbits fell 3-1 to the Florida Everblades on Friday night at Bon Secours Wellness Arena.   Greenville needed just 1:52 of the game to take the 1-0 lead as Ayden MacDonald carried the puck down the wing and fed a pass to Austin Eastman who tipped the puck into the back of the net for his first professional goal. Florida responded at 3:44 as John McCarron scored his 15th of the season by tipping a shot into the Greenville goal.   In the second, Florida’s Jake McLaughlin sniped a puck from the right-side circle for his third goal of the season, a goal he was denied moments prior when he hit the left post. In the third, with the Swamp Rabbits’ net empty, Levko Koper threw the puck into the Greenville goal for the 3-1 score line. With the loss, the Swamp Rabbits fall to 9-15-3-3 while the Everblades improve to 19-8-3-3 on the season. The Swamp Rabbits and the Everblades will rematch at Bon Secours Wellness Arena on Saturday night at 7:05 p.m. Swamp Rabbits Single Game Tickets are on sale now!
