history

The Columbia Inferno was founded in 2001 as a franchise of the East Coast Hockey League . The team's most successful season to date was in the 2002/03 season, when they first finished the regular season in first place in the Southeast Division, before winning the Greenville Grrrowl , Pee Dee Pride and Mississippi Sea Wolves in the playoff finals for the Kelly Cup the Atlantic City Boardwalk Bullies in the best-of-seven series lost 1: 4 wins. During the 2008/09 season, the team voluntarily stopped playing in the ECHL after the owners were unable to conclude a new lease with the Carolina Coliseum in the time specified by the league . Originally, the franchise was supposed to resume gaming for the 2009/10 season, but this was canceled due to the financial crisis. Subsequently, the ECHL granted the owners Dr. Ezra Riber and Sam Imbeau to leave the team inactive for another year.
