Ice Bears defenseman Kevin Harris started off Knoxville’s strong first period with a goal three and a half minutes after the puck dropped. Shaun Norrie and B.J. Pelkey also scored in the first period putting the Ice Bears up 3-0. Huntsville put two points on the board in the second period and one in the third. Knoxville’s Tim Vitek scored a power play and an empty netter to make the final 5-3.

The Ice Bears take on the Twin City Cyclones tomorrow night for Race Night.
