The Goats and Bombers meet in part one of a two-part series Saturday in St. Louis. Omaha is 3-0 in league play with a win over the St. Louis Royals and a pair of victories over Kansas City RFC. The Bombers are 2-0 with wins over the Royals and KCRFC. The Ramblers and Tulsa start league play in earnest Saturday, too, with a meeting in Tulsa. This will be the first league game of the season for the defending West champs, while the Ramblers are 2-0 with wins over the Royals and KCRFC. DII in New England is split into two conferences – Laurence and Daly. Saturday, they cross over against each other, and Portland, 4-0-1 and in first place in Daly, travels to Worcester, 4-1 and in second place in Laurence. This match should be a good indicator of where the New England power resides. In MetNY, 4-0 Montauk takes on 3-1 Union. Despite having just one loss, Union sits at fifth place in the league standings. Danbury, Lansdowne and Bayonne, who separate Union and first-place Montauk, aren’t likely to slip this week, as Danbury has a bye and the other two play weak opponents, but a win over Montauk would obviously bolster Union’s playoff prospects. The Midwest has a pair of important games, too. The East matchup pits Pittsburgh against Michiana, both 4-2, in a battle for second place. Each have just one game remaining after Saturday, so the window to jockey for Midwest playoff seeding is closing. Same in the West, where Wisconsin (first place in group 2) travels to Lincoln Park (third-place in group 2). Wisconsin has outscored opponents 185-64 this season, and they beat Southside Irish 30-14. The Irish are responsible for Lincoln Park’s only loss on the season MIDWEST |
