Cool story from opening weekend. Joel Mullen looked awesome for Utah. He was an All American and SSDM of the Year in D2 for Limestone. When the school closed, he went out west and joined the Utes. He had an assist, two GBs, and a caused turnover in the opener against Delaware.

Romar Dennis looking for redemption at 2026 Championship Series Romar Dennis dominated the first Championship Series, but it didn't result in a title. He's back in 2026 for redemption.

Romar Dennis put together a dominant performance in the β€˜23 Championship Series, but it took everything out of him, and he hasn’t been the same since.

He’s feeling the best he has since, and he’s out for redemption in β€˜26.

We had a great time at our first @thepwhl.com game. Very cool to see a couple players I wore about when they were in college (O’Brien, Hartje) playing in the pros. If DC (or Virginia) gets a team, we will for sure be back.
