--
After a weeklong selection camp The Chicago Steel has
finalized its roster for the upcoming year; combining 14
new and 8 returning players to make the official team
count stand at 22.
Over 100 players came out to the
invitation-only selection camp June 8th-14th
in hopes of securing a spot on the 2009-2010 Chicago
Steel team. Although all attending players possessed
talent and a clear love of the game, cuts were made
throughout the weeklong camp on the basis of individual
performance in drills, workouts and games.
Assistant Coach, Jon Waibel, found
camp to be a success and is “looking forward to a new
season, and working with a new team of guys.” This new
team, listed below, mixes diversity, youth and
experience as the roster includes players from parts of
the Midwest, East Coast and Canada, ranging between the
ages of 17-20.
