Wolfpack Opens Run to Championship against CPFL Team

The Springfield WolfPack, Springfield’s only professional indoor football team, will open the 2010 season with a home game on April 17 against the Topeka Thunder of the Central Plains Football League (CPFL).

The recently released 2010 American Professional Football League (APFL) schedule has every team starting the season in an inter-league matchup against teams from the CPFL. The WolfPack’s game against the Thunder will start a stretch of four straight home games to start the season.

“We are excited to have a chance to start the season with the Thunder,” team President Angela Edwards said. “We believe our players and our fans will be up to the challenge. The Thunder, and the teams in the APFL, better be ready for what they will experience on the field and in the stands in Springfield this year.”

Along with inter-league play, the 2010 APFL season also includes the addition of the three-time CPFL champion Mid-Missouri Outlaws from Sedalia, MO.

“We’re excited about the Outlaws joining our league,” APFL President Ralph Adams said. “The excellence they displayed in the CPFL will be a welcome addition to the already great competition we have in the APFL.”

Adding another team from Missouri to the APFL creates an instant in-state rival for the WolfPack. That rivalry will begin on Saturday, May 8 when the Outlaws travel to Springfield for the first time in APFL history.

The 2010 APFL regular season will run from Saturday April 17 to the end of June. The playoffs and championship games will be set in early- to mid-July. For more on the 2010 APRL season go to springfieldwolfpack.net.
