Published on December 26, 2005 under American Basketball Association (ABA) News Release

Several west coast teams including Gallup, SoCal and Beijing as well as east coast powers Maryland, Florida, Rochester and Newark are eager to have a shot at breaking the undefeated Alley Cats's streak - and it could happen with the re-arranged schedules that are being developed and will be announced.
