Here are the Top 10 Breeze Players for Passing productivity during the 2016 season. To determine this list we considered several statistical categories along with the overall impact each player had on the game when the team had possession of the disc.
Three head-to-head games, two 1-point margins, one 2OT result, a 75-72 Breeze lead in overall goals scored, and a 2-1 win-loss advantage for the Rush. That was the regular season. And that 2-1 advantage was the difference between a home Division Title game for the Breeze and another brutal road game in Toronto.
From the AUDL: “Toronto Rush player Geoff Powell has been assessed a one-game suspension by AUDL Commissioner Steve Gordon for a play featuring excessive contact during the East Division Final on Saturday.”
Somewhere under the rainbow last Saturday night the Breeze found what it took to secure their first playoff win in franchise history, prevailing 24-20 over the talented and determined New York Empire at Gallaudet University in DC.
BREEZE50 at papajohns.com The Breeze beat the Philadelphia Phoenix last night 27-16 on an astoundingly beautiful evening in the nation’s Capital. It was 80s Night, the sky was clear, and the Phoenix put up a great fight in the 80s weather and even had the lead early, but the Breeze took care of business from there and ran away with the victory.

Handlers never get the love on Top 10 lists. Or so we wrote earlier this week when we launched a mini campaign to get Markham Shofner‘s perfectly placed 77-yard flick huck to a streaking Jeff Wodatch noticed by the AUDL deciders of those things.
The Breeze beat the New York Empire Saturday night 27-26 in double overtime for their 3rd 1-point win in three tries against NY this season and a spot in the 2016 AUDL playoffs. This marks the 2nd 2OT win over NY, the 3rd 2OT game overall, and 5th game decided by 1 point out of 12 total games in what has certainly proven to be a gut-wrenching season.
