The team then returns home Sunday January 5th at 3:10p.m. CT for another match against the Rochester Lancers.

The last time the Comets were in Baltimore, they were mere moments from forcing a game three in the MISL Championship Series. The Comets return on Friday with the most potent offense in the league. Three Comets players rank among the top ten in scoring, eight players have double-digit points. They have scored 134 points, an average of 19.14 per game.
