Game Preview: Vixen host Pride

DSC00273After a tough loss to the St. Louis Slam in their season opener, the Minnesota Vixen are eager to get back on the field and prove themselves against the Nebraska Pride this Saturday. Despite the scoreline, the Vixen showed flashes of brilliance in their first game, with standout performances from Sarah Rosche and Chelsy Swanson on offense and defense, respectively. Although the Vixen struggled to find the end zone in their last game, they were able to move the ball effectively, racking up over 100 total yards and five first downs. With another week of practice under their belts, the Vixen offense will look to capitalize on their opportunities and put points on the board. Defensively, the Vixen was strong against the Slam, allowing just 20 points and forcing two turnovers led by Swanson, Samantha Barber, and Allie Dockendorf. The Vixen defense will aim to stifle the Pride's offense and create more turnovers tomorrow. DSC00459 While the Vixen may have a tough task ahead of them against a talented Pride team, they have the talent and drive to come out on top. With the support of their fans behind them, the Vixen will look to earn their first win of the season and build momentum for the rest of the year. Ticket button
