Lehigh Valley Outlawz

The Lehigh Valley Outlawz are a former professional Indoor Football League team. They played their home games at the Stabler Arena on the campus of Lehigh University in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.

History
Prior to being formed for arena football, they were a semi-pro team from the Labelle Community Football League known as the Philly Outlawz. They played in the league from 2004-2005. Afterwards, they joined the Great Lakes Indoor Football League (later known as the Continental Indoor Football League).

During their inaugural year (2006) in the CIFL (in the GLIFL year), the Outlawz hosted the first ever GLIFL All-Star Game. They ended their regular season at 5-5 and with a #3 playoff berth. In the playoffs, they were eliminated by the second-seeded Rochester Raiders in the semifinals.

In 2007 they would finish the season with a 7-5 record which, would again earn them the #3 seed in the Atlantic Division playoffs. They would lose in the semifinal round of the playoffs to the New England Surge.

The Outlawz would finish the 2008 regular season with a 6-5 record and the #2 seed in the Atlantic Division East. The team would take a big step in winning their first playoff game against the New England Surge before being defeated by the Saginaw Sting in the Atlantic Division Championship.

Demise
After the 2008 season the Outlawz, along with the New England Surge left the CIFL and planned to start their own league, the United States Indoor Football League. Later three more teams, the Southland (IL) Chill, the Bridgeview Red Devils, and the Pennsylvania Stillers were announced as participants in the newly formed league. The team had stated that the season would start in March, around the same time that its previous seasons had begun. However, the start was then pushed back to April, then May and a final announcement was made that the 2009 schedule would be out June 1. The schedule never came out and the team and league website stopped being updated. The team shut down their Hellertown, Pennsylvania headquarters. The league website stated that it (the USIFL) was based out of Cape Coral, Florida, however, the USIFL decided it was best to not try and start a new league venture with the US economy in it's current condition. Rumors of unpaid player and accounts were never confirmed and a lawsuit brought by a former coach was dismissed without merit.
