WPSL Moving Forward in 2012
Major changes have come to WPSL, partly in response to WPS folding in February 2012. Many WPS teams have moved to the newly created WPSL Elite League, resulting in a record number of teams for the upcoming season. At this point, the Midwest Conference has 7 teams which will be divided into 2 divisions. Our opponents will be FC Milwaukee Nationals, Quad City Eagles, and Carmel of Indiana. The winner of our division will compete in a playoff game against the winner of the other Midwest Division. The winner of the playoff game will qualify for the WPSL National Championship Tournament.
