Jacksonville Sharks News Release


JACKSONVILLE - On Saturday, July 27, the 2013 South Division Champion Jacksonville Sharks will square off against the Tampa Bay Storm on Sea Best Field at the Jacksonville Veterans Memorial Arena. This week's game is presented by our partners at Sunshine State Insurance Company and RyTech, and kickoff is set for 7:00 p.m."¨

This week is the regular-season finale, as the Sharks still have a chance to lock up the No. 1 seed in the American Conference. To do so, the Sharks will need to win this week's game and then have the Philadelphia Soul lose to San Antonio on Saturday night. Either way, the Sharks have locked up their fourth straight South Division title and will host a home playoff game next Saturday, August 3, at 7:00 p.m.

The Sharks are 6-1 all-time against Tampa Bay, beating the Storm on the road by a 64-55 count all the way back in Week 1 of this season.
