Idaho Steelheads News Release


BOISE, Idaho - The Idaho Steelheads should have made ground in its hunt for a West Division playoff spot with an impressive 8-1-1 record in its last 10 games, but the Fresno Falcons have been equally impressive with a 7-1-2 record and the Steelheads remain seven-points behind the fourth place Falcons.

The team next embarks on an eight-game road trip, beginning with three games against last place Victoria and West Division rival, and then against the South Division's Mississippi Sea Wolves (one game), Louisiana IceGators (two games) and Texas Wildcatters (two games). Of the four teams, only Mississippi has a record above .500 percent. NATIONAL CONFERENCE, WEST DIVISION STANDINGS
