Friday's Sharks Game - What You Need to Know

April 16, 2015 - Arena Football League (AFL)
Jacksonville Sharks News Release


The Sharks are back in town! We're ready to host the San Jose SaberCats on Friday, April 17. Kickoff on Sea Best Field at the Jacksonville Veterans Memorial Arena is set for 8:00 p.m.??

The Sharks are in need of a win, as the team has struggled to start the 2015 campaign. The schedule does not let up this week, as San Jose comes in undefeated and features the best defense in the AFL. These teams last met during the 2013 season, with the SaberCats besting the Sharks in that game.??
