Jacksonville Sharks News Release
JACKSONVILLE - On Saturday, August 3, the No. 1 seed Jacksonville Sharks will open their 2013 playoff run against the No. 4 seed Tampa Bay Storm. Tonight's game is presented by our great partners at Sea Best® - America's Seafood Expertsâ¢. Kickoff on Sea Best Field at the Jacksonville Veterans Memorial Arena is set for 7:00 p.m.
The Sharks and Storm met just last week, as the Sharks emerged with a 52-44 victory that helped the team clinch the top seed in the American Conference. The Sharks have a 3-1 all-time record in home playoff games, though these two teams have never previously met in the postseason.
The winner of Saturday's game will square off against either the Philadelphia Soul or Orlando Predators in the American Conference Championship Game. Should the Sharks defeat the Storm, the conference championship game would take place here in Jacksonville on Saturday, August 10.
