The wait is over, Miners Nation!
The Wheeling Miners are headed to the American Arena League Championship and will host the Columbus Lions on Saturday, July 11 at WesBanco Arena.
First and foremost, we want to thank our incredible fans for your unwavering support and patience throughout the 2026 season. It has been a challenging road, with schedule changes beyond our control and two heartbreaking losses by a combined total of just three points. Through it all, our players, coaches, staff, partners, and the best fans in the league never stopped believing.
That perseverance has paid off, and now the Miners have earned the opportunity to compete for the AAL Championship on our home turf.
