The Seattle Majestics, pictured in the white jerseys, is 6-0. Three Majestics players are West Seattle residents.
The Seattle Majestics, a full-contact women’s football team in the Independent Women’s Football League, play by NFL rules. The undefeated powerhouse also plays by its own rules, with a 6-0 season and a final game against the Portland Shockwave on June 6. The game will be played at home, on French Field at Kent Meridian High School at 7p.m.
This is the team's third-consecutive undefeated regular season. Pending the Portland game, they will most likely take on the Los Angeles Amazons in the playoff opener.
Three Majestics live in West Seattle: Admiral Junction resident Stephanie Nelson, No. 33, who plays both tight and defensive end; White Center resident Renee Rodak, No. 88, who played rugby in college; and Arbor Heights resident Lisa Tavarez, No. 43, a tackle, line backer, punt returner and extra point kicker.
"We don't like to lose," Nelson told the West Seattle Herald prior to their opening game in March. And, so far, they haven't.
