The Sharks are looking forward to coming home as they come into this game tied for second place with the Boston Militia (1-1). In their last game against the Militia in Boston, the Sharks were beaten decisively 28-7. The New Yorkers hope to re-group with some home cooking and playing a struggling New England club.
The NightMare were 2-6 in their inaugural season last year but their sophomore year is not going so well. They have lost both of their games played so far and have yet to score. Their last game in Philadelphia resulted in a 52-0 loss. But before the Sharks assume a notch in the win column, the NightMare lost to the current first place and undefeated North Eastern Nitro (2-0) by the slim margin of 13-0.
Still the Sharks have to like their chances playing their first game in front of their fans and the return of running back Kathy Holloman. The former University of Connecticut track star adds another weapon to the Sharks backfield to go along with Odessa "Yellowshoes" Jenkins. Holloman was a big cog in New York's playoff run last year but was literally knocked out of the playoffs with a concussion against the Pittsburgh Passion. She has yet to play this year as she had prior commitments.
Besides the football game, the Sharks will be honoring their mother's and grandmother's before the game and at halftime, they will be holding a Punt, Pass, and Kick contest for girls aged 8-17.
