ESTERO, Fla. – The Florida Everblades and visiting Orlando Solar Bears sat tied in the standings entering Friday night’s game which was won by the Everblades 4-1. This was the first of back-to-back games between the two teams.

The Everblades were able to chase the Solar Bear’s starting goalie, Brandon Halverson, early in the second period after scoring their third goal.  Solar Bear defenseman, Ben Carroll, spoiled goalie Cam Johnson’s shutout bid when he scored on a wrist shot from the point late in the second period.

Everblades forward, Sean Josling, had the lone goal in the third period scoring on a wrist shot from the slot notching his fourth goal of the season.  The Three Stars of the Game all came from Florida with Mark Senden the #1 Star, with his one goal and two assist performance.
