Major Indoor Soccer League folds

WESTPORT, Conn. (AP) - June 2, 2008 The league, which had been in operation since the 2001-02 season and had nine teams in the 2007-08 season, ceased operation last weekend. That came a few days after commissioner Steve Ryan resigned.

Former league chairman John Hantz, owner of the Detroit Ignition, said Monday that the league is considering restructuring that would allow longterm growth and expansion.

In addition to Philadelphia and Detroit, the league had teams this season in Baltimore, Chicago, Milwaukee, Newark, N.J., Orlando, Fla., Stockton, Calif., and Monterrey, Mexico.
