RiverCity Rage News Release
St. Charles, MO - The RiverCity Rage Professional Indoor Football Team takes to the road this week as they travel to Wichita to battle the Wild on Saturday at 7:05. The Rage (1-0) are coming off a come-from-behind victory in their season opener against the Colorado Ice. Rage head coach, Ken Stills said that even with the victory, there were several things that his team needed to improve upon.
"It was a good win," said Stills. "However, we have a lot of room to grow. We missed too many scoring opportunities, turned the ball over too many times and committed too many penalties. We need to minimize our mistakes if we want to win a championship and I believe that we can do that."
The Wild (0-1) fell to the Sioux City Bandits, 31-23, last week in their first game in the United Indoor Football League. Wichita was led by quarterback Tyler Schuerman who threw for 191 yards and a touchdown on 21-48 passing. Schuerman connected with six different receivers on the night. The Wild's leading ground gainer was running back Cliff Edwards who rushed for 38 yards and one score on 15 carries.
"Wichita is a sound football team," added Stills. "They didn't turn the ball over and committed only three penalties. They gave their offense the opportunity to score. They just missed out on some red zone chances. They have great balance on offense with the run and pass. Each team gets better each week. I'm sure they will be better this week and I am confident they we will improve as well."
The Rage return home on Saturday, March 22nd as they welcome the Omaha Beef to the Family Arena. Kickoff is set for 7:00 with gates opening at 6:00. The Rage will be celebrating Faith and Family Night. Call the Rage ticket office at (636) 896.4285 for all of the information on discounted ticket specials.
