From the Steelhawks
Bethlehem, PA: The Lehigh Valley Steelhawks will be bringing all the fun and excitement that is indoor football back to the Valley when they play their first home game of the 2013 season this Sunday, March 17th at 4:00pm. This will be the first meeting between the two teams as the Steelhawks open and close their home games against Knoxville.
Knoxville (0-1) is led by their star WR DeAndre Brown (2 tds), a highly recruited player that played at Southern Mississippi. Look for QB Josh McGregor (247 yds, 3 tds) to target Brown throughout the game. Defensively they are led by LB Stanley Clark (5 tackles, 1 sack).
Lehigh Valley (0-1) looks to get in the win column coming off a tough lost last week in Alabama. Last week QB Adam Bednarik (199 yds, 3 tds) spread the ball around – WR Jeff Willis (7 catches for 74 yds, 2 tds), WR Torieal Gibson (4 catches for 71 yds, 1 td), and WR Tom Gilson (8 catches for 49 yds). The return of WR Troy Pascley from injury gives Bednarik more weapons to target. Defensively the team is led by DBs Clarence Curry (4 tackles, including one for a loss) and David Castillo (3tackles, 1 int), along with LB Brandon Roundtree (1.5 tackles, 1 int returned for a td).
The Steelhawks Home Opener is presented by Wilson Elser and PSDA Insurance. The first 1,000 fans in the door will get a FREE 2013 schedule T-Shirt. Also for one night only, fans will be able to take advantage of $1 hot dogs courtesy of Sodhexo and Lehigh University. Fans can expect more giveaways as well as all the fun activities associated with Steelhawk games on this St. Patrick’s Day afternoon game.
