Oregon Lightning Host Washington Wolfpack in Cascade Clash VII on Saturday Night

Oregon Lightning Arena Football returns to the First Interstate Bank Center this Saturday for Cascade Clash VII, as the Lightning hosts the Washington Wolfpack in a pivotal AF1 West rivalry matchup. Oregon enters the contest looking to build on an improved offensive showing in last week’s game to the Michigan Arsenal, where quarterback #7 Dalton Cole accounted for four total touchdowns and the Lightning posted their highest point total since Week 3. Wide receivers #1 Kris Lewis, #8 Maurice Ashley, and #10 Angelo Grose have emerged as key targets on offense, while the Lightning defense continues to lean on playmakers like #2 Nick Brassell, #9 Caden Campoileti, and #15 Rodney Green Junior to generate stops and turnovers.

Washington comes into Redmond with one of the league’s most explosive offenses and a defense capable of creating game‑changing plays. The Wolfpack and Lightning have already split their two meetings this season—Oregon opened the year with a 33–16 road win in Washington, while the Wolfpack answered with a 79–19 victory in Redmond on May 16. 

Saturday’s matchup marks the seventh chapter of The Cascade Clash rivalry, with the all‑time series now tied 3–3 after six fiercely competitive meetings. The rivalry has averaged a combined 89 points per game, with Oregon posting an average of 38 points and Washington averaging 51, reflecting the high‑tempo, high‑scoring nature of the matchup. Total offense has followed a similar pattern, with the two teams combining for over 500 yards per game across the series.
