Football fans of the High Country rejoice: the High Country Grizzlies’ first game will take place on Saturday, March 25. Part of the National Arena League (NAL), the Grizzlies will take on the Lehigh Valley Steelhawks with kickoff scheduled for 7 p.m.
While the addition of a team to the High Country surely has football and sports fans excited, the style of play will be very different to that of ASU’s home games at Kidd Brewer Stadium. While the NAL generally shares many of the rules established by other arena football leagues, there are a few key distinctions to be made.
