Outlook -- The red-hot Blast has won three straight and 11 of its past 13 to cement a grip on third place and is coming off the first shutout in team history, 13-0 over Chicago. By the end of this weekend, its playoff possibilities should become clear since Milwaukee and Detroit, the two teams tied for first, play each other Sunday. Monterrey is in fourth and among a group of four clubs jockeying for post-season positions. The Blast is 2-1 against La Raza, but dropped the only meeting in Mexico, 16-13, on December 13. Denison Cabral (73 points) and Machel Millwood (69) continue to pace the Blast offensively, while La Raza's Dino Delevski is second in the MISL with 92.
