Chief Operating Officer George Manias said, “Schedule release day is always an exciting time because things become very real. We are happy with our scheduled dates this season, playing at home on all weekend days and having no mid-week games. Also, not having to play three games in three nights this season, either home or on the road, is a plus and will keep us fresh. We will need to be ready right out of the gate when we host our rival Lone Star on our opening weekend. We encourage fans to get their season tickets now and support us as we plan to go on quite a run this season. Fans should also be on the lookout for all the fun promotional and theme nights we are planning and will be promoting as the season draws closer. Hockey in Corpus is back and will be stronger and better than ever. We want everyone in our community to be a part of what we are building here and with tickets as low as $5, we are offering family, fun affordable events all season long.”
