Final Home Games for the Vortex

This weekend is our last chance to catch the Ohio Vortex at the Canton Civic Center.  The Vortex take on the Detroit Waza (Friday, Jan. 15th) and the Louisville Lightning (Saturday, Jan. 16th).  They will then embark on a long, long road trip to finish the season. 

The Vortex have quietly created a talented squad with a good mix of youth and experience.  Seasoned veteran Wes Sechrist matches perfectly with the passion and fire of midfielder Allen Eller.  Defender Mike Pertz and midfielder Steve Gillespie lead the youth movement and represent the team’s best prospects in the outdoor game.  Adam Campellone and Dado Grozdanic have made the biggest contributions to Ohio’s potent attack.

The Vortex have brought pro soccer back to NE Ohio and there is a chance they will bring the PASL-Pro Championships to the Civic Center.  It has been confirmed that the City of Canton is under consideration to host this season’s championships, regardless of where the Vortex may finish in the standings.  It is not much of a surprise, considering the Civic Center is widely regarded as one of the best facilities in the entire league.
