2008 Elgin Racers (9-11) - For the Racers' schedule, see below. For individual players statistics, scroll to the bottom of this page. The Racers, in their third IBL season, are looking for the same strong late-season push that has characterized their previous IBL campaigns. The Racers split two games this week on the road against the Las Vegas Stars, but finished the season strong, winning four of their last six games. Elgin enters the East Division playoff as the #2 seed, and will face the Battle Creek Knights in Elkhart, Indiana on Saturday, June 28. |
