Lincoln Haymakers News Release
Lincoln, NE - The Lincoln Haymakers Pro Indoor Football team will start their inaugural season this Sunday March 17, in Sedalia, Missouri as they take on the Mid-Missouri Outlaws. The expansion Haymakers squad will be facing a veteran Outlaws team that finished 7-5 last year in the APFL. The Outlaws lost in the first round of the playoffs last season to the eventual APFL Champions the Sioux City Bandits.
The Haymakers regular season will start after nearly two months of training camp. Players are anxious and excited to take the field in Navy and Gold. Starting Defensive Back Michael Pace said "We're focused and ready." This historical weekend will mark the first time the Haymakers will play an official game.
The Wichita Wild opened up the regular season with a convincing 70-26 victory over the Oklahoma Defenders. With the twelve week season underway, the Haymakers would like to start off with a victory to maintain position running with the top contenders in the league. Top four teams out of the ten team league will qualify for the post season. The higher two seeds will have home field advantage.
The Haymakers will have a bye week, next week with the home opener on Friday March 29th against the Sioux City Bandits. The organization is planning entertaining game nights for fans at the Pershing Center with affordable ticket prices on sale now!
