Force continue Pennsylvania tour
The South Carolina Force will return to Keystone State this weekend.
The Force, Greenville's two-game-old America Indoor Football Association franchise, will travel back to Pennsylvania, hoping to pin down its first victory.
The Force fell last week to the Reading Express 47-27. The week before, in the team's only home game, the Force fell 29-18 to the Fayetteville Guard.
Tonight, South Carolina will visit the Harrisburg Stampede in the PA Farm Show Arena. Harrisburg enters with a 1-1 record after edging the Baltimore Mariners 37-34 last week.
The Force is ranked last in the 14-team league in scoring offense, managing only 22.5 points per game. Three touchdowns would usually suffice in football but not when the league's top three teams are averaging more than 50 points.
However, the Force could find a more favorable matchup this weekend, as Harrisburg is the only other team averaging fewer than 30 points per game.
Force receiver Anthony Young leads the league in receptions, bringing in 10 per game. Force quarterback Blake Mitchell is ranked fourth in the league in total offense, producing 218 yards per game.
The Force will return home April 11 to host the Florence Phantoms.
