Rampage Pound Twisters 17-5 to Extend Winning Streak to Seven Straight

The Rockford Rampage reached the halfway point in the 2007-08 American Indoor Soccer League season at a perfect 7-0 after defeating the Massachusetts Twisters 17-5 tonight in front of a crowd of 523 at the Victory Sports Complex in Loves Park. IL.

Bato Radoncic and Novi Marojevic led the Rampage (7-0) in scoring with six points each (Marojevic scored 2 one-point goals and 4 assists and Radoncic scored 3 one-pointers and 3 assists). Zlatko Zebic set a personal record with four one-point goals and an assist.

Dimitri “the Dominator” Meletis earned the win in goal for the Rampage, playing all sixty minutes and allowing five points. Paul Dellostritto took the loss, allowing all seventeen points in sixty minutes.

The Twisters won’t have much time to recuperate, as they will head 90 miles to the east tomorrow to take on the expansion Northern Illinois Rebels at the Lake County Sports Center in Waukegan at 3:00PM CST. The Rampage will return to the pitch next Saturday night when they will travel to Tulsa to take on the league’s other expansion franchise, the Tulsa Revolution at 7:30PM.
