North Texas Crunch Replaces Kings on Turfcats Schedule

May 27, 2009 - Southern Indoor Football League (SIFL)
Austin Turfcats News Release


AUSTIN, Texas - The Turfcats' next home game will not be against the PASM Florida Kings but will instead be against the North Texas Crunch. This comes after the announcement from the Southern Indoor Football League that the Kings have been expelled from the league and the Crunch will play the rest of the Kings' SIFL games.

The Crunch is part of the Independent Indoor Football Alliance. They completed their first season in the IIFA in 2008 with a record of eight wins and three losses. This led to their participation in the IIFA championship game where they defeated the Galveston Thunderstorm 52-50 in Galveston.

"The Crunch have proven themselves as the top team in their league and we are happy to compete against them in ours, they will be a more formidable foe than the Kings" said Turfcats Vice President/General Manager Ronald Oswalt. "We're ready to give them a Turfcats style welcome to the SIFL."

The Crunch began their 2009 season on April 11 and have won all four of their games this season. They have won their games by as little as two points and as many as 55. The Crunch have one home game against the Texas Smash on May 30, before they begin a series of four away games against SIFL teams.

The Turfcats will host the Crunch first on June 6 at the Adfirmative.com field at the Travis County Expo Center. With the Crunch now participating in the SIFL, the Turfcats have two Texas teams to beat to be considered the best indoor football team in Texas. Before the Crunch, the Turfcats will take on the other Texas team, the Texas Pirates, this Saturday in Houston.
