Nashville, TN-The National Women's Football Association has completed it's third weekend of regular season play. Some great rivalries are being built and the race for the Championship is heating up. The NWFA is the largest tackle football league for women in the world.

Another exciting game saw the Panama City Beach Rumble score a 2 point conversion with 1:06 on the clock to beat the New Orleans Spice. Kudos to the Mutiny's Sara Moon who took the opening kickoff for the second half, all the way for a score and a win over the Rochester Raptors! The Phoenix braved some tough weather and put the ice to the Freeze in a convincing victory. The Baltimore Burn had a close one with The Columbus Flames and the Pittsburgh Passion and the Erie Illusion kept the fans in the stands cheering right up to the end.
