Rebels Win First Game of Summer Season

The Rebels kicked off their 17th season with a 4-2 win against the Southside Shiver. Red played their first ever game in the Tipton Arena and had to adjust to the size being considerably smaller than the Sportsdome surfaces. The transition didn't take long though as Jesse scored on his first shift with the team just 2 minutes in. The Shiver answered back 10 minutes later with a goal of their own to tie it up. A few minutes later the opposition took a high sticking penalty and Scott capitailzed scoring on the powerplay to regain the lead. In the second half James scored and Jesse found the back of the net once more to give the Rebels a 2 goal advantage. The Shiver was able to pressure and add one more near the end but it wasn't enough as the Rebels took the win. Jesse, Scott, Alex, Chris, and Adam all tallied 2 points a piece.
