The Invaders joined the Cascade League in 2007 as a
new team. The 2008 version made the CFL Championship game losing
to the Whatcom Raiders by 10 points. Coach Hall would leave to
form the rival Tacoma Cobras following the season.
2009 started off with a controversial game that the
Invaders "won" or didn't win according to different sources. The
grudge match between the Invaders and the new break away team Warriors
had bitter feelings and an even bitter ending. The game went down
as a 20-0 win for the Warriors but it may never be known what exactly
the true ruling was. For the second time in three years, the
Invaders made the CFL playoffs with a losing record and made an exit
losing to the Colts 30-12.
The Invaders stood alone in Tacoma after the
Warriors folded their tents, but the CFL fracture forced Tacoma into the
Western Washington Football Association for the remainder of the season.
Rumors began floating that the Warriors and Invaders were joining forces to
become the "Washington Trojans" for the remainder of the season.
The 5-8 Invaders found themselves as WWFA
runners-up invited to the FWFA Bowl game in Las Vegas, NV. The
game turned into an embarrassing rout as the Invaders quit at halftime
down 52-0.
The 2011 edition made little progress finish 3-7 including two late
season blowouts to the Washington Wolfpack and Bellingham Blitz, but
still found themselves in the WWFA playoffs where they fell once again
to the Renton Ravens which extended a 4-game losing streak.
The Shockers couldn't secure a home field and forfeited the 2012 season
opener 2012. That would be one of a few bright spots in the season
as the Invaders continued to take steps backward finishing 2-6 including
three of their last four games.
