The Washington Power were a member of the National Lacrosse League during the 2001 and 2002 seasons. After unsuccessful stints in both Baltimore (as the Thunder) and Pittsburgh (as the CrosseFire), the franchise moved to Washington, D.C.. After two seasons of low attendance in Washington, the franchise moved yet again, this time to Denver, Colorado, as the Colorado Mammoth. In Colorado they have seen success both on and off the field, culminating in 2006, when they had the highest attendance in the league, and also won the Champion's Cup.
