Now that the team heads to the playoffs with home-field advantage, Head Coach Seb Hines made a point of it, saying, “We need to see fans coming out and supporting because this is the first time in Pride history that we’re hosting a playoff game, and so that’s an incredible achievement, and the players fully deserve the fans coming out and helping us get the win, and hopefully going into the following week with another home game in the semifinal that will lead us to Kansas later this month.”
