The Road Warriors (4-5-0) host South Carolina (8-3-0) tonight for the first of 16 scheduled meetings between the clubs. Last season the Road Warriors compiled a 9-8-0 record against South Carolina which included a 5-3-0 mark at the BI-LO Center. Greenville’s Jeff Prough will try to keep his recent hot streak going tonight, while South Carolina goalie Philipp Grubauer will try to do the same.
