Predators Seek Revenge In Division Battle
April 7, 2010 - Indoor Football League (IFL)
Seattle Timberwolves News Release
Kent, WA: Fresh off their first win in team history, and a much needed rest via a bye week, the Kent Predators return home this Friday to face the Alaska Wild for the second time this season. The team is looking for a little redemption from a March 8th defeat at the hands of the Wild in Anchorage. In that game, Alaska Quarterback Donald Carrie completed 10 of 20 passes for 113 yards and four touchdowns. The Predators however feel they have overcome their early season woes, and expect to be sitting all alone in third place in the Pacific North Division come Friday night.
The Wild have already exceeded expectations after a rough 2009 campaign which saw them go 0-14. And with their 2-3 record, they are very much in the hunt for a playoff berth come June. The team is lead by a Quarterback combination of Carrie and Andrew Carcich. The two have combined to throw for over 400 yards through the air, and ten touchdowns versus only three interceptions. Defensively, the Wild rely on Jamelle Juneau in the secondary. The defensive back has recorded 23 tackles, a sack, and an interception return for a touchdown on the season.
The Predators are riding high after the franchise's first win in team history two weeks ago against the Tri-Cities Fever. In that game, Quarterback Charles McCullum torched the Fever defense for 164 yards passing and four touchdowns as well as contributing 126 yards on the ground and three additional scores. For his efforts he was named the IFL's Vidswap.com Offensive Player of the Week. He has had a plethora of receivers to throw to this season including Andre "Piper" Jordan (6 TD's), Travis Poole (5 TD's), and Eric Taylor (4 TD's). LB Walner Leandre leads the defense with 29 total tackles and a half sack this season.
Game time this Friday is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. at the ShoWare Center. Tickets for the game still remain but are running out FAST! Partial-season and discounted group tickets are also still available by calling the team office at 253-239-3254, or by visiting the Predators site at www.kentpredators.com . Come pack the house this weekend, and cheer on your Predators to their first ever home win!
