Game Notes

New Swarm players Joel White and Johnny Powless each had a goal in their Swarm debuts to help lead the team to a 12-8 home victory over the New England Black Wolves and former Swarm Andrew Suitor at Ho-Chunk Nation Field at The Hive in front of 7,599 on Friday night. The win extends the Swarm winning streak to two, with both wins over the Black Wolves and the win also gives the Swarm a 3-1 season series win and tiebreaker over them. Callum Crawford led the team in scoring with three goals and four assists and Zach Higgins was solid behind another strong defensive effort with 36 saves on 44 shots. The weekend is not over as the team catches a 4:30 am flight to eventually arrive today in Rochester to play the Knighthawks.

• The Swarm passed 800,000 all-time in home attendance with tonight's game
• Shayne Jackson was named acting captain for the night. He had a goal and four assists and often placed himself into heated exchanges with numerous larger Black Wolves players throughout the game.
• The Swarm have not yet announced a captain to replace Andrew Suitor. Callum Crawford and Jordan MacIntosh continue to wear "A"'s.
• The Swarm scored their first power play goal since March 14th. They went three straight without a power play goal. In the last four games, the Swarm power play is 1 out of 15.
