Philadelphia Wings: 17 Americans? “You can’t play the indoor game with a field team” That was the sound echoed as the Wings roster took shape for the 2013 season.

Can the defending Champion Knighthawks bounce back after road loss in Washington in week one? Rochester is raising their banner on this night and face a Bandits team looking to move…
