Wave Welcome Tacoma Stars to Panther Arena Saturday for Greek Night.
January 16, 2025 - Major Arena Soccer League (MASL)
Milwaukee Wave News Release
The 7-time champion Milwaukee Wave a looking to capitalize on the momentum they've created their last three games going into Saturday night's game at UW-Milwaukee Panther Arena against the Tacoma Stars. Kick off is at 6:05pm.
"There are a lot of similarities between us and the Stars," said Milwaukee Wave Head Coach Giuliano Oliviero. "They have Goalkeeper of the Year last year in Chris Toth; Nick Perera, of course former Milwaukee Wave legend who won two championships with us, and last seasons league MVP. Knowing Nick as a person, not just a coach and player; he's going to want to come in here and have some success. We're preparing to prevent that."
The Wave are riding a three game winning streak with wins against the Outlaws and Sidekicks, while the Stars are on a 6-game losing streak; they haven't won a game since their home opener at accesso ShowWare Center Saturday, December 7, 2024.
"Their (Stars) record doesn't reflect the kind of team they are and I want to be sure players don't take them for granted," added Oliviero. "We know we're in for a tough game but coming out with a win; that would keep us near the top of standings; that's the end goal."
