Blast dynasty continues with another MISL championship
Posted by Jeff Quinton on April 28, 2008
The Baltimore Blast defeated the Monterrey La Raza, 14-11, to win the 2008 MISL Championship Game at Milwaukee’s U.S. Cellular Arena. Denison Cabral led Baltimore with three goals and was named MVP of the Championship Series. The Blast, who won the MISL Title in 2003, 2004 and 2006 swept the New Jersey Ironmen in the Quarterfinals and the Milwaukee Wave in the Semifinals to advance to their fourth Championship in six years.
In the second half of the Major Indoor Soccer League championship game, the Monterrey La Raza’s forwards began to get frustrated about having to play against all five of the Blast’s field players on each attack.
The philosophy of having every player defend was the key to the Blast’s 14-11 victory Saturday night and has also been the driving force behind the franchise’s four titles in the past six seasons.

The Blast, which gave up the fewest points during the regular season and was No. 1 in penalty killing, returned from Milwaukee yesterday, and Kelly said the organization is ready to take time off before developing a personnel plan to defend the crown.
