OPPONENTS & SCHEDULE

The World Football League

The World Football League is an adult Minor Football League that consists of teams from the central United States that geographically stretches north-south from Webster City, Iowa, all the way to Austin, Texas, while ranging east-west from Memphis, Tennessee to Tulsa, Oklahoma. The League is made up of the top teams in minor league football and is continually making efforts to improve the quality of play for both its member teams and fans. The WFL was rst formed in the mid1970s as a professional league and enjoyed a brief history as it featured such National Football League greats as Larry Csonka of the Miami Dolphins and Ken Stabler of the Oakland Raiders. By early June 1974, the WFL claimed they had some 60 NFL stars and regulars under contract. Although this pro grid circuits proclaimed ambition was to bring American football onto a worldwide stage, due to its own undercapitalization as well as competition with the juggernaut NFL, the league folded only after two seasons. Nonetheless, the WFL was resurrected in 2007 by some of the top owners in minor league football including Jewell Portwood of the Dallas Diesel, D.J. Jones of the Austin Gamebreakers, and James Ashford of the Oklahoma Thunder. The goal for the league now is to develop talented athletes both on and off the eld and to give young men a place to showcase their skills and further their football careers. The 2010 version of the WFL consists of 14 teams in four different divisions including two-time World Bowl champions the Oklahoma Thunder who went 13-0 last year and were ranked #2 in the country. World Bowl IV will be played on Saturday, August 7 in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

THE WORLD FOOTBALL LEAGUE

About the Midwest Rampage

The Midwest Rampage is a newyet experiencedMinor League football team based out of Webster City, Iowa, that is a member of the Heartland Division in the World Football League. As members of another team, most of the Rampage veteran players played in either the 2009 WFL or North American Football League (NAFL) playoffs. Such that, when the Rampage take the eld this season, they will do so with a squad of seasoned players who are joined by a group of fresh faces eager to make their inaugural season memorable. The Rampage came about because a core group of its veteran players from Webster City decided that their own town would be the perfect place for a Minor League football squad. Simply put, because of its central location, a market of supportive sponsors, the availability of talented players, and a community with great pride and tradition in the sport of football, Webster City is the ideal setting for a team such as the Midwest Rampage. While the Rampage may call Webster City home, their 2010 roster consists of 45 players representing 21 different Iowa towns or cities from as far as Sheldon and Iowa City. The team also is made up of many players who have earned either NAFL or WFL AllStar status and include Andy Sowle, Brian Miller, Joe Gilbert, Chris McNiel, Cory Stuhr, Clint Foth, John Elkin, Jared Bell, Jay Smith, and Jake Thoma. Furthermore, all of these playersincluding two-time honorees Sowle, McNiel, Bell, Miller, Elkin, and Thomahave also been named to several All-American squads such as Minor League Football News and the Coaches Poll. Lastly, Elkin was voted by league coaches in 2009 as the WFL Co-Defensive Player of the Year and also was a nalist for the national Linebacker and Defensive Player of the Year awards presented by Minor League Football News & Hall of Fame at the Annual Minor League Football Awards in Las Vegas on December 4, 2009. So what does this all mean? First, the Rampagewith all their experienced players as well as their new talented oneswill be able to eld a competitive team worthy of any opponent. Secondand this isnt an understatementthe Rampage are going to have an attitude... one that epitomizes both class and toughness. Overall, the main goal of the Midwest Rampage is to strive for excellence in all aspects while providing fans, supporters, and sponsors with hard-hitting, competitive, and family-oriented football in Webster City.

HEAD COACH ASSISTANT COACH ASSISTANT COACH

Chris Hansen
Rampage head coach Chris Hansen is a native of Racine, Wisconsin, where he was an athlete for St. Catherines High School. Chris attended Loras College in Dubuque, Iowa, where he played offensive guard for the Duhawks from 1996-98 after transferring from the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh. After graduating from Loras with a degree in Sports Management, Coach Hansen then served as a graduate assistant for his alma mater where he coached the defensive line in 1999 and the offensive line in 2000. Coach Hansen then went to St. Cloud State (Minnesota) to not only complete his masters degree, but to also serve as an offensive linemen coach from 2000-01.

As a junior in 1982, Smith helped his team become the very rst Webster City squad to ever qualify for the Class 3A playoffs after going 9-0 during the regular season. Although Webster City lost to Harlan in the 1st Round, Bill earned 1st Team AllConference honors after hauling in 22 receptions for 442 yards and 9 touchdowns. The next season, he helped the 1983 squad set a new record for most wins in a season when the Lynx stormed to a 10-0 record before again losing to Harlan, this time in the Seminals. Coach Smith earned 1st Team All-State honors after leading the entire state (Class A-4A) in receiving with 48 receptions for 1,047 yards and 13 touchdowns.

Stampede Stadium and the New Scoreboard

In order to make the dream of having a Minor League football team in Webster City a reality, the Midwest Rampage rst had to secure a location to play their home games. This was accomplished after Webster City Community Schools agreed to allow the Rampage to play their home games on the football eld located inside of Bob Buckley Track. This facility is perfect for the Rampage as it has its own press box with speaker system, stadium seating for 400 people, and is just a short distance from both the rest rooms and concessions. However, the only shortcoming of this venue was that the only available scoreboard was just a timer used for track meets. The Midwest Rampagein collaboration the Webster City Youth Football programpurchased a new, permanent, multi-purpose scoreboard to be used at their home football games in the newly dubbed Stampede Stadium. As well, the scoreboard will be used for Pop Warner games sponsored by the Youth Sports Foundation and will also be used by both the high and middle school for track meets. The scoreboard, a Daktronics SO2198 LED Outdoors Scoreboard, measures 5 feet high tall by 10 feet wide and is capable of keeping both time and score for soccer, football, and track. The scoreboard cost a total of $4,500 of which the Rampage paid $3,500 while the remaining $1,000 was paid by the Youth Sports Foundation. The new scoreboard will not only benet the Rampage and the Webster City Youth Football program, but will also serve the high school track programs as well as any other sport played at the Bob Buckley Track.
