Playing career

On August 10, 2010, the Trenton Devils traded Schepke to the Greenville Road Warriors in exchange for forward Ryan Hayes.[1]

After starting the 2012–13 season with the Greenville Road Warriors, Schepke was released after only 7 games and was later signed to a contract by fellow ECHL club, the Evansville IceMen on December 10, 2012.
