Waza Flo News Release
(Detroit, MI)- ÃÂ With a repeat Eastern Division C hampionship under their belt, Detroit has their eye on the prize, the National Championship Ron Newman Cup, but first they have to go through Cincinnati to get it. ÃÂ Detroit WAZA has faced the Cincinnati Kings three times this season beating them 9-8 in Cinci, 8-4 at home, and again, 5-3 in Saturday's home game, yet an intense rivalry still exists between the two veteran teams.
"The King's won the division two years ago and we lost a few players to them the following season", stated head coach Dominic Scicluna. ÃÂ With Detroit's division win last year combined with a trip to the finals at Nationals, those players quickly returned to WAZA FLO's lineup and are happy to be there. ÃÂ "That combined with the fact that we both have very physical, skillful teams always makes for a great game", added Scicluna.
Detroit will travel to Cincinnati and kickoff the first round of the Ron Newman cup series on February 23, 2013. The second and final game of that round will again, pit Cinci against the WAZA FLO on Detroit's home turf,ÃÂ February 24, 2013 2:35 kickoff ÃÂ at the Melvindale Civic Arena (4300 S Dearborn Street, Melvindale, MI 48122)
