Wolverines Collide with Tornados on Back to School Night
Indianapolis Tornados were victorious once more in their second showdown of the season with the Chicago Wolverines
For release- September 3, 2010
INDIANAPOLIS- The Chicago Wolverines traveled to “Indy” to face the Tornados for the second time of this 2010 North American Football League season on Saturday, August 28. Wolverines exited the field of Park Tudor School and departed for their homes in the “windy city” with another disappointing loss to dwell on for the four hour car ride. The Tornados were victorious in the closely fought battle, ending with a 22-21 final score.
Brandon Williams had two touchdown passes for the Tornados, one of which was for 80 yards. In addition, Luther Baker returned a fumble for a 25-yard score.
The victory coincided with the Tornados’ “Back to School Night,” an evening themed around the beginning of the 2010 school year. The Indianapolis staff worked on numerous contests for the student fans involved with Tornados football; including the young scholars of elementary schools, middle schools, high schools, and even those of Indianapolis-based universities.
Tornados’ Master of Ceremonies Scott Evans proved to be more than a man behind the microphone Saturday night. His non-profit organization Fight the Wackness Now, a group dedicated to helping young men and women reach their goals in spite of adversity, was the evening’s charity sponsor. Several fan contests for the night were in conjunction with this group’s cause.
The Indianapolis Tornados will be having their last home game of the season on Saturday, September 25. The team will be hosting “Fan Appreciation Night,” to express their gratitude to the Tornados who show their support from the bleachers each week. Numerous giveaway prizes will be rewarded to those in attendance.
The Indianapolis Tornados are a minor league football team with a rich history and an intense commitment to the community. The Tornados won the North American Football League championship in 2008, the largest minor league football organization in the country. Players from top colleges joined the Tornados for a shot at professional aspirations. For more information about the team and organization log on to www.indianapolistornados.com. The next home game of the season is September 25 at Park Tudor. Gates open at 5:30 p.m. and Kick-off is at 7:00 p.m.
