   Eastern + Western Divisions are Set
---------------------------------------------
by USCL Commissioner - Greg Shahade
---------------------------------------------
 
  The divisional placement of the USCL teams was decided today, and the league will be aligned as follows:

Eastern Division:

1. Baltimore Kingfishers
2. Boston Blitz
3. New York Knights
4. Philadelphia Masterminds

Western Division:

1. Carolina Cobras
2. Dallas Destiny
3. Miami Sharks
4. San Francisco Mechanics


The divisional placements are important for a few reasons. First you will play each team in your division twice during the season, yet play the teams from the opposite division only once. Also two teams from each division will advance to the playoffs and play each other. The winner of each divisions playoff match will then move on to the finals for the League Championship. The official league schedule will be published shortly.
