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.

The DC Breeze lost a heartbreaker in Philadelphia last night, 22-21. It was the first loss to the Phoenix(2-6) since 2013, as the Breeze (5-3) have owned the rivalry with their closest neighbor for the past three seasons. Both offenses executed well, especially in the 2nd half where the D-lines couldn’t convert the few chances they had for breaks.
Here’s the live stream for this evening’s game in Philadelphia — 6:30pm start. You can also follow the action on Twitter @DCBGameday.
The DC Breeze have been fortunate in terms of scheduling this season. So far, the team has only had one game a week, with a single bye week taking place earlier in the year. They will face two teams in two days for the first time this weekend, an away game on Saturday and then home on Sunday. Escaping the weekend with a 2-0 record would be a huge boost…
The Breeze have a new Head Coach and a new partnership with the area’s top men’s club team, Truck Stop.
