First place is on the line when Victorious Secret and Ultras meet Thursday at 8:00 PM EDT. It is the first meeting of the season, and with three regular-season games left after this one for both teams, the table is tight at the top.

Victorious Secret sit first with 7 points after four games, one ahead of Ultras on 6. Victorious Secret have dropped four straight, but Jesse Silverman leads the club with 6 goals and 8 points, and Justin Fritz and Ryan Carley have each appeared in four games in goal. Ultras answered their last loss with a 1-9 result against Tucson Cold Plunge; Michael Gonzalez leads them with 7 goals and 9 points, while Chris Moore has 7 points. In a league where games average 7.1 total goals, the question is whether Victorious Secret can turn a narrow edge into separation, or whether Ultras can pull level at the top.
