The Head Start Hoppers at the Yard tonight

After starting the season with 11 straight wins, the Hoptown Hoppers (17-7) have dropped 7 of their last 13 games and may be showing signs of faltering in the second half.  The Oilers (17-7) have persisted and have tied up the top position in the standings (technically in first place leading over the Hoppers beating them 3 of 5 games head to head so far).  Interesting to note that the last place Miners (5-19) also handed Hoptown 3 losses, and the Bombers (11-13) account for the seventh Hoppers defeat.

The Railroaders (9-13) have yet to taste victory over the Hoppers in 5 games, and tonight would be a good time to get a win.  With 18 games left in the regular season, it is imperative for the Railroaders to get the engine fixed and break this 4 game losing streak.  We need a complete team effort, that’s Players and Fans!  I believe the Fans are ready and I know the Players have the heart for it too.  Let’s focus on one game at a time. 

There’s still time to turn this season around.  It’s the first of July, and in the next 20 days the Railroaders have 11 games to play at Home in 10 ten days.  It’s going to busy at the Yard beginning tonight.  Let’s fire it up and get our first win over the Hoppers!
