"It was an easy decision for me and (owner) Dominic Scicluna to add them and we look forward to their production," said head coach Costea Decu about the signing of these two big Detroit staples that look to provide continued pressure and scoring again this year. "They are both great. Both were high goal scorers and played the game beautifully."
"He's a rare breed," is how Coach Decu describes the next signee Michael Grba.
Grba is a young midfielder who was utilized as a defensive midfielder last year with his sure play and tactical awareness. Despite his 4 goals and a pair of assists last season, fans may remember him more for his 28 fouls.
"That just speaks to his intense play," said Scicluna. "He rarely finds himself in the penalty box and any coach would take those numbers coupled with his stout play. I'm glad he isn't playing for the other guys."
Waza Flo's first season home matchup is Saturday, Nov. 1 when they take on the Harrisburg Heat at 7:05pm at Melvindale Civic Arena (4300 S Dearborn St, Melvindale, MI 48122).
