Steamwheelers are optimistic after win over Massachusetts
MOLINE, Ill. (KWQC) – After four games, the Quad City Steamwheelers find themselves 2-2 overall, and in fourth place in the Indoor Football League’s Eastern Conference, but they are optimistic moving forward.
In last Saturday’s win over the previously undefeated Massachusetts Pirates, the Steamwheelers scored a season-high 54 points. With a ton of new faces on this year’s team, players said their on-field chemistry is growing each week.
“A lot of young guys that we’ve been talking about all year, and so kind of being able to get a better feel for the game, coming inside it’s a lot tighter. So starting to get a better feel for that and getting a better comfort level with Coach Ross’ offense and when the run game comes together like that, ya know, it opens up the pass game a lot,” said Judd Erickson, the Steamwheelers’ quarterback. I” feel like we were good on every aspect offensively and it came all together as a team.”
“We are finally starting to see the field from the quarterback standpoint, and both those guys are gonna have great games. And like I said it’s been tougher and tougher on that side of the ball, but running the football has been great,” said Cory Ross, the Steamwheelers head coach. “Our offensive line has been a great spot for us. They’ve been able to maintain, stay strong and get the packet, the front moving.”
“It’s giving us a lot of confidence, you know, preparing for the next opponent, knowing what we can do, putting it on film just so we can set the bar higher and just achieving what we can do,” said Ivory Scott, a Steamwheelers offensive lineman.
The Steamwheelers will host Tulsa, Sunday, at Vibrant Arena. Kickoff is set for 3:05 p.m.

A teenager was pulled from a pond in Milton, Massachusetts, after he went missing while swimming Saturday night.
The Norfolk County District Attorney’s Office said the teenaged male was taken to a Boston area hospital following the incident at Houghton’s Pond. It’s unclear how long the teen was under water, and there was no immediate word on his condition.
State police had said earlier that they responded to the pond shortly after 7 p.m. for a person who entered the water and didn’t resurface. State police divers, detectives, troopers, and the Milton Fire Department were all on scene involved in the search.
The DA’s office is conducting an investigation with state police that remains ongoing. Further information is not being released at this time.

A Massachusetts man is facing multiple charges for allegedly engaging in inappropriate communications and exposing himself to children.
Orate Kyle Graham, 20, of Bridgewater, was arrested this week on two counts of disseminating obscene material to a minor and one count of accosting or annoying another person.
Bridgewater police said they were made aware Tuesday of allegations involving interactions between several girls age 12 and 13 and an individual known to them only as “Jay.” The individual said he was 17 years old during conversations with the girls through FaceTime and in person.
Through an investigation, police identified “Jay” as Graham, and also found that he had regularly engaged in interactions with the minor victims. During those interactions, he allegedly exposed himself and asked the girls to expose themselves to him.
He was arrested Thursday and taken to the Plymouth County House of Correction, where he was held on $25,000 bail. The case remains under investigation by Bridgewater police and the Plymouth District Attorney’s Office.
