WOU at 5-5 can finish the 2022 campaign with a winning record with a win

By the end of Saturday night's Portland Thunder and Los Angeles KISS contest, all LA quarterback Aaron Garcia could say was that either the ball was getting knocked down or he was.

With a historic defense, a dominate receiving corps, a dual-threat quarterback, and home field advantage clinched throughout the playoffs, there is no doubt that the San Jose SaberCats (17-1) are the current frontrunner to win their fourth ArenaBowl title. With that said, anything can happen in the AFL postseason, a period which has had its significant share of momentous upsets.

The Portland Thunder held thier first live scrimmage in team history on Saturday, May 1st at their Tualatin practice facility in front of crowd of media and hundreds of season-ticket holders. The Rose City's newest professional sports franchise did not fail to put on a show.

The off-season for the Portland Thunder has been a bit turbulent shall we say? It started with the firing of popular first year head coach Matthew Sauk and has became more and more convoluted with every passing week.
