Following the first year in DC Current history that the team failed to make the playoffs, superstars Alan Kolick and Markham Shofner have signed two year contracts with the cross-town DC Breeze from the AUDL.
This year in MLU play, Kolick with 43 points (15 G, 28 A) kept up his consistent play that he established the previous two years, including his MVP performance in 2014. On the other hand Shofner, 28 points (12 G, 16 A), had his worse year statistically since the team's inception.

In response to their departure, MLU Commissioner Jeff Snader issued this statement: "I wish both Alan and Markham the best and hope they have great time in their new endeavor. They have helped write the history of the DC Current and that will always be something we'll be thankful for."

Here are their combined statistics in their three years with the Current:
