GREENVILLE, SC. - The Atlanta Gladiators (23-24-5-2) lost to the Greenville Swamp Rabbits (21-23-5-2) by a final score of 8-2 on Sunday afternoon, at the Bon Secours Wellness Arena, in Greenville, South Carolina.

Greenville jumped all over the Glads early, scoring the first five goals of the contest. Kaleb Lawrence (7th), John Parker-Jones (6th), Bryce Brodzinski (16th), Carter Savoie (18th), and Quinn Olson (6th) all scored before Atlanta had gotten on the board.
Down 5-0 and on the power-play, the Gladiators broke through against Kolby Hay, as Chad Nychuk (4th) one-timed a power-play goal into the net following a sweet set-up from Jackson Pierson.
After Greenville defender Tristan De-Jong went to the sin bin for tripping, Gladiator forward Alex Campbell (2nd) flung a shot towards the net from atop the zone, that found its way through a pile of bodies and in.
In the final frame, the Swamp Rabbits continued to fill the stat sheet, as Bryce Brodzinski (17th) fired his second goal of the game past Ethan Haider.
Greenville defenseman Chandler Romeo (1st) and Jake Flynn (3rd) also scored in the third period, putting Greenville ahead 8-2.
