Wings face Knighthawks in exhibition

By Tom Hoffman

The Philadelphia Wings will give their fans a preview of the 2012 season when they face off with the Rochester Knighthawks on Sunday December 11 at the Sun National Bank Center in Trenton, NJ at 1 PM.

This will be the first preseason game for both squads and will be a chance for Wings fans to see the team's newest acquisitions in play for the first time. Expected to be in the lineup will be Dan Dawson (acquired in the Boston Blazers dispersal draft), Brodie Merrill (acquired from the Edmonton Rush in the Athan Iannucci deal) and #1 draft pick Kevin Crowley. This will be the Wings second visit to Trenton having lost here in March 2008 to the New York Titans 20-13 in what was a Titans home game.

The game can be heard on Z88.9 (Burlington County College) and at http://staff.bcc.edu/z889/
