The Breeze moved back up to 6th in the AUDL Power Rankings heading into 2nd of three bye weekends as Minnesota’s poor performance in Madison last weekend dropped them three places. #3 Toronto and #10 Montréal are set to duke it out Saturday for 1st place in the East, where a possible Montréal upset on the road could shake up much more than the power rankings…
The 2017 season is almost over. There is only one game separating the DC Breeze from the end of the regular season. Fortunately for the Breeze, there will at least be two more games with a playoff berth clinched this past weekend. In that victory, DC maintained consistency that has led them to their 9-4 record at this point season: offensive dominance and constant defensive pressure.
For the second straight season and the third time in franchise history, the DC Breeze are heading to the playoffs. With a 25-17 win over the Philadelphia Phoenix, the Breeze were able to celebrate their postseason berth in front of their home fans on Saturday night. Controlling the pace from the opening pull, DC never trailed and never seemed to be in trouble against their I-95 rivals. Finishing 7-0 at…
The D.C. Breeze need one more win to make the playoffs. It could be this week or it could be July 22, and if it happens, either way it will be against the Philadelphia Phoenix. This Saturday the Breeze (8-4) will have the chance to get that win at home in front of the Breeze faithful. Being 6-0 at home before the final regular season home game of the year, the…
One point may be a difference maker when this season is all said and done for the DC Breeze. No, not one point that a player gets injured. Not one point that decided the game, perhaps not even the double overtime point over the New York Empire.
The DC Breeze faced a daunting task heading into the weekend: two crunch-time games on a long road trip to Canada. Despite a strong Sunday win to show for the weekend’s efforts, there is still a bit of saltiness for the team as they return home 1-1 instead of 2-0.
This weekend the Breeze travel to the Montreal Royal (6-4) on Saturday and the Ottawa Outlaws (2-5) on Sunday. Heading north of the border for the final time in the regular season, the DC Breeze have a chance to sweep two teams and clinch a playoff berth. Winning both would also put the team at nine wins, enough to clinch a playoff spot. Accomplishing this, though, will be a tough task considering…
When the DC Breeze needed their top stars to step up, they did. In fact, not a single player on the squad had a bad game against the Toronto Rush on Sunday. Sure, there were the occasional mistakes and poor decisions throughout the course of a grueling game in very hot conditions, but as a whole every player’s performance stood out as strong and productive.
PRESALES ARE OVER – GET YOUR TICKETS AT THE GATE
The Breeze had not lost to Philadelphia since 2013. Sure, the Phoenix won all four contests in 2013, and there were a couple close games including an overtime since, but the Breeze had won 10 straight from 2014 to 2016. Then on June 3, Philadelphia upset the Breeze 22-21 in Philadelphia. It’s game on! We hope to see you at historic Gallaudet University June 24, 6:30pm as the Breeze continue their assault on the East Division and (hopefully) home field advantage in the playoffs.
First place was on the line at Hotchkiss Field on Sunday afternoon. Both teams knew it. Everyone in the stadium knew it. It just didn’t look like it. From the opening pull, the DC Breeze unleashed a dominating onslaught against the tired Toronto Rush.
