It was another even week for the Amarillo Wranglers as they dropped one and won one. Amarillo now sits at 9-6-0-1 on the season.

The opponent this past week was the Corpus Christi IceRays. Game one was Friday night and it was a battle throughout. The first period ended 1-1 and the second 2-2. The IceRays won the game thanks to a goal early in the third.

The next day was far kinder to the Wranglers. After a tie game through one, Amarillo took the lead in the second and put it out of reach in the third.

Now, Amarillo prepares for a two-game series with the El Paso Rhinos. The two squads faceoff Friday and Saturday at 7:15 p.m. each night at the Budweiser Bullpen.
