This might be a case of 3rd time's the charm for the Sirens, whose two losses this season both come at the hands of the Falconz. The Sirens had injury issues for those games and look to have recovered for the most part, but the Falconz DO have a significant talent advantage, despite the fact that the Sirens have a US Women's National Football Team Alternate in WR/DB Kaitlan Reiff, recently named Frosh DBs Coach at Del Oro (CA) HS, her alma mater. Of course, the Falconz have a '70s-era Oakland Raiders-like reputation, in that they are notorious for taking out important opposing players, particularly starting quarterbacks. We'll see if this trend continues.
