Columbus Sliders Seek Redemption After Disappointing MLP Season

Columbus Sliders Seek Redemption: The Columbus Sliders concluded their MLP season in 11th place, finishing with a disappointing total of 21 points. Despite possessing talent, the team struggled to find their footing early in the season and never managed to recover.

A Rocky Start

Riley Newman showed flashes of skill, yet he failed to establish the necessary chemistry with Connor Garnett. This disconnect prompted the team to make a significant move, trading for Jay Devilliers in hopes of reviving their performance.

However, the situation worsened when he suffered an injury shortly after joining the Columbus Sliders, further complicating an already challenging season.

Shuffling the Roster

Meanwhile, Meghan Dizon’s performance fell short of expectations as the season progressed, leading to a late-season trade that left fans questioning the team’s strategy.

With the combination of injuries and underperformance, the Columbus Sliders found themselves in a difficult position.

A Transformative Offseason Ahead

As they look ahead to the 2025 season, it appears the Columbus Sliders may be on the verge of a major overhaul.

With the potential to drop nearly every player but Riley Newman, the team is ready to undergo a significant transformation. The upcoming off-season will be crucial for the Columbus Sliders as they aim to rebuild and establish a competitive roster.

News in Brief: Columbus Sliders Seek Redemption

The Columbus Sliders finished their season in 11th place with 21 points, struggling from a poor start. Riley Newman faced challenges in building chemistry with Connor Garnett, leading to the trade for Jay Devilliers, who later suffered an injury.
