It's Been A While

We know its been a while since we've updated the blog, and we apologize. We've been so busy getting ready for the season, that some stuff unfortunately feel through the cracks. But we are back and running now.

Just in case you didn't hear - we won our first League game last Saturday against the LA Legends, 5-0.

Our home opener is today, so we'll be updated the blog with the starting lineups and the score.
