Georgia Force News Release
The Georgia Force hits the road again this week when they travel to Las Vegas on March 29th to face the Las Vegas Gladiators in the Thomas & Mack Center at 10:00 p.m. ET. This will mark the first meeting between the two clubs, as the Gladiators were one of two AFL teams the Force did not play last season. Georgia enters the week of play in a three-way tie for the Southern Division lead with Orlando and Tampa Bay each with similar 6-2 records. The Force's 6-2 mark is also tops in the AFL.
This week's game marks the mid-point of the Force's longest road swing in club history with one more stop in Tampa Bay next week. Georgia is currently riding a team-record four game-winning streak following victories over Los Angeles, Grand Rapids, Carolina and Orlando.
The Gladiators are in their first season in Las Vegas after relocating from New Jersey in the off-season. Las Vegas is currently tied with Detroit for the Eastern Division lead as they look to repeat as divisional champs. The Gladiators are led by Mike Horacek, who is second in the AFL with 69 receptions, third in yards with 898 yards and fifth in the league with 20 touchdowns.
