Miami Manatees Press Release

Miami � The Manatees extended their WHA2 best home-winning streak to 12-1-1 as they knocked off the Alabama Slammers by a score of 5-1.

Greg LeColst got the lone goal in the first period at 13:20. LeColst grabbed a loose puck at the right circle, and unleashed a wrist-shot that beat Fred Beaubien cleanly.

The Manatees got two goals in the second period from Dan Donnette and Josh Liebenow to give the Manatees a three goal lead as the teams went to the locker-rooms to end the second period.

Like the second period, the Manatees scored two more goals from Kevin Swider and Darcy Johnson. Johnson�s goal extended his goal-scoring streak to three games.

Miami�s Sean Weaver was on his way to his second consecutive shut-out, but Ryan Prentice�s off-angle shot was lost at Weaver�s feet. Unable to see the puck, Weaver accidently kicked the puck into the net, stopping Weaver�s shut-out streak at 115 minutes.

Despite the late goal, the Manatees held on for the 5-1 lead. The Manatees take on the Orlando Seals Saturday night, and close off the home-stand Sunday against the Macon Trax.

The Miami Manatees face off against the Alabama Slammers, Jacksonville Barracudas, Lakeland Loggerheads, Macon Trax, and Orlando Seals in the WHA2�s inaugural season. All games are broadcast on www.irn.fm.

Individual and Group Tickets for the Miami Manatees are now on sale. For further information, please contact the Manatees at (305) 536-PUCK (7825) or visit www.miamimanatees.com.
