READING, PA – The Reading Royals, proud affiliate of the Philadelphia Flyers, defeated the Norfolk Admirals, 4-0, Saturday, November 1th3 at Santander Arena. Royals goalie Pat Nagle stopped all 38 shots he faced, while Norfolk’s Jake Theut stopped 19 of 22 shots.

Frank DiChiara opened the scoring 3:41 into the second period. Unassisted, DiChiara ripped a shot top-twine over the shoulder of Theut to make it 1-0 on the power play. Kenny Hausinger scored his second career goal two minutes later. Thomas Ebbing skated down the right wing and backhanded a shot that rebounded off Theut’s pads and directly to Hausinger who banged it home.
DiChiara scored his fourth-career multi-goal game with a one-timer in the right circle. Ebbing sent the puck across the offensive zone dots to connect with DiChiara 6:29 into the third period. Jacob Pritchard scored a 180-foot empty net goal with 1:25 remaining in the game to seal it at 4-0.
