The San Diego Shockwave was a 2007 expansion team from the National Indoor Football League. They played their home games at the Viejas Arena, which is also home to the San Diego State Aztecs basketball teams.
The team was owned by former BYU player Jeff Sprowls and his father, Robert.[1]
The Shockwave finished the 2007 season 10–1 in the league and won the NIFL title, but the league itself experienced many difficulties as other teams folded. For 2008, the Shockwave ownership decided not to continue operations in the NIFL.[2]
Some games were broadcast on XEPE, "San Diego 1700 AM." Chris Ello was the play-by-play announcer.
