Reading, PA- The Pennsylvania ROAR look forward to a double dose of the Baltimore Blast on Friday and Saturday Night. The ROAR will start the weekend at home against the Baltimore Blast this Friday, December 20th as they look to notch that first victory of the short season. This is the first time these two teams have met this season. Kick off is scheduled for 7:05 PM ET.
With the ROAR’s bye week coming to an end, and their last game was on Friday, December 6th where they fell to the Rochester Lancers, the ROAR have been waiting for a chance to take on their closet competitor, league rival and the MISL defending champions, the Baltimore Blast. Despite the ROAR’s slow start, the season has been looking up as they grow as a more cohesive unit. Not to mention the ROAR have been struck with preseason injuries, a VISA delay, and a two game suspension to one of the team’s core members, Ptah Myers, which has now been served. The Baltimore Blast are coming of their second win of the season beating the Lancers. The Blast shut out the Lancers which was their first shut since 1991.
Remember that Friday Night, there is a lot going on, so you don’t want to miss a minute:
· You can get a Free Kids Ticket with the purchase of an Adult Ticket.
· It’s Sons of Ben Night
· The Spine and Wellness Center Giveaway
· Philadelphia Union star, and original member, Sebastien Le Toux, will also be meeting with fans and signing autographs starting when the doors open at 6PM.
· Sebastien will also present the game ball and participate in the first kick.
· Not to be outdone by Sebastien, word has it that Santa Claus will be greeting kids at half time.
