GREENVILLE, S.C. – The Everblades fell short for the second consecutive time in their three-game weekend as they were blanked 3-0 by the Greenville Swamp Rabbits on Saturday night at Bon Secours Wellness Arena. 

The Swamp Rabbits put pressure on the Everblades early, driving home a one-timer from top scorer Liam Pecoraro 2:33 into regulation. Brett Kemp and Bradley Lalonde were the helpers to lift Greenville up 1-0 after the first period.

The Pecoraro, Kemp and Lalonde trio made the Blades pay again in the second period at 5:57. The Everblades continued to struggle with opposing goaltender John Lethemon as they trailed 2-0 at the second intermission.

Greenville put the icing on the cake with a Brett Kemp empty net goal on the penalty kill. The mark came 16:53 into the third and finalized the score at 3-0 as the Swamp Rabbits extended their win streak to four games. Blades goaltender Parker Gahagen faced a season-high 36 shots, making 34 saves.

The Everblades and Swamp Rabbits will play the finale of their 3-in-3 series tomorrow afternoon at Bon Secours Wellness Arena. Puck drop is scheduled for 3:05 pm and the game will be covered on FloHockey.TV as well as Mixlr.
