INSIDE THE GENERALS

11-and Counting: Following a three-game winning streak that began with a 4-3 victory over the Mississippi Sea Wolves, the Greensboro Generals have won their 11th game of the season. In a parallel to Head Coach/General Manager Rick Adduono's first season with the team in 2002-03, Greensboro has reached this milestone one week earlier. It was not until November 29th of last season that the Generals won their 11th game, whereas the team accomplished the feat this season with the 3-2 overtime victory over the South Carolina Stingrays. Greensboro has two games remaining in the five-game home stand which continues against the Reading Royals (November 26); and Florida Everbiades (November 27~). The lengthy home scheduling marks the first time that Greensboro will play five games at home, the next coming in January, as the Generals will turn their attention to the second half of the schedule.
