@arizonarattlers

Welcome to the 2016 Arena Football League season. In an effort to continue to provide a professional working environment, the following guidelines have been established for the upcoming season. CREDENTIALS Access to Arizona Rattlers football games for accredited working media will require proper credentials. All credentials are non-transferable, and any unauthorized use will subject bearer to ejection from Talking Stick Resort Arena and confiscation of the credential.

Season credentials will be issued to recognized newspapers, magazines, television and established radio stations making reasonable requests on company letterhead. Please indicate those persons who will be using each credential.

Season and single-game credentials will be issued only to those who make requests on company letterhead. These requests can be sent by email to [email protected] and must be requested by Wednesday prior to the game. Pre-arranged credentials may be picked up at the media will-call at the northeast press entrance two hours before game time. No credentials will be mailed.

Media must wear credentials in plain view at all times within the arena. Working media with credentials will have access to the press room at designated times, as well as an assigned seat. Your cooperation is required to maintain a professional working atmosphere.

PHOTOGRAPHERS Photo credentials will be issued in the same manner as other credentials. Field access will be available to photographers from media outlets that have received credentials from the Rattlers media office. Photographers with the proper credentials will enter the arena through the press entrance and proceed down the stairway to the field level. Shooting areas are limited.

PARKING Members of the media who are covering the Rattlers game will be able to park in our parking garage. The garage entrance lot is located south of the building on the corner of First Street and Jackson. All media that contact media relations will be on a list to receive access into the garage. These requests should be made at the same time as credential requests.

PRESS ENTRANCE The press entrance is located on the northeast corner of the Talking Stick Resort Arena. Media members with proper Rattlers credentials will be admitted through this entrance. If a media representative requested credentials for a single game, they also can be picked up at this location. The press entrance will open two hours before game time. Credentials will not be recognized at other arena entrances.

PRESS ROOM The Rattlers media work room is located in the northeast corner of the building on the field level. It can be reached through the press entrance and by walking down the stairs to the field level. The media work room, equipped with telephones, electrical outlets and press materials, will be open two hours before kick-off, during halftime intermission and for post-game work.

GAME-NIGHT SERVICES Statistics will be furnished, including pre-game notes, halftime and final stats. All information will be available in the media work room. Fax service also will be available.

RADIO AND TELEVISION Electronic media representing the visiting team must contact the Rattlers media relations office to ensure broadcast locations and lines. Three business telephones for visiting radio will be furnished by the Rattlers, but specific broadcast loops will have to be ordered by the station. Additional lines or information can be requested through Ashley Mercereau at (602) 379-2058.

Statisticians and spotters are available to assist radio and television broadcasts by contacting Media Relations.

PRACTICES All Rattlers practices are open to the media. Contact Media Relations Front Office to confirm practice schedules from week-to-week.

For questions or assistance, contact Peter Garbow at [email protected].

KEVIN GUY, GENERAL MANAGER / HEAD COACHKevin Guy is in his 16th season coaching in Arena football, his 12th as a general manager and

head coach, and his eighth in that position with the Rattlers.

In 2015, Guy was nominated for the AFL Hall of fame and was inducted into the University of

West Alabama Hall of Fame.

In 2014, Guy led one of the AFL’s most-storied franchises to its fourth consecutive ArenaBowl

appearance and third straight world championship, a 72-32 victory over the Cleveland

Gladiators. The Rattlers posted an AFL-record 14 straight victories to start the season, and

ended the regular season at 15-3 and going undefeated on their home turf at Ak-Chin Field at

US Airways Center.

Guy’s offense in 2014 was explosive, scoring 164 touchdowns and averaging a league-leading

63.9 points per game. The Rattlers offense under Guy, was led by its opposing pass offense

that threw for over 5,000 yards and averaged a staggerring 8.4 yards per attempt.

In 2013, Guy led the Rattlers to its third consecutive ArenaBowl appearance and second straight

world championship, a 48-39 victory over the Philadelphia Soul. The Rattlers posted a then

AFL-record 18 victories (first set by the team in 2011).

Under Guy, Arizona’s offense led the league in scoring with 170 touchdowns and averaging 66.8

points per game. The Rattlers also fielded one of the league’s most stingy defenses, allowing

only 48.1 points per game, second to Philadelphia’s 46.6. Guy also saw eight of his players

receive All-Arena honors, including two first-teamers.

In 2012, Guy led Arizona to its first ArenaBowl championship in more than a decade. The

Rattlers won 16 games, earning back-to-back West Division and National Conference

championships. The offense scored 158 touchdowns during the regular season and averaged

62.1 points per game, while the defense forced 45 turnovers and allowed 48.9 points per game.

Guy’s 2011 team piled up 160 touchdowns during the regular season, averaging 61.9 points per

game. The defense, meanwhile, forced 54 turnovers for a plus-34 turnover ratio – the best in the

AFL – while holding opposing teams to 46.4 points per game. While the Rattlers would make

their first ArenaBowl appearance since 2004, they would come up short in the final seconds,

losing 73-70 to the Jacksonville Sharks.

An arenafootball2 Hall of Fame inductee, Guy has proven to be a consistent winner, owning a

72.6 winning percentage (122-46) as a head coach. In 2011, he was named NFL Network Coach

of the Year.

Guy joined the Rattlers on Aug. 10, 2007. He had been serving as defensive coordinator for the

San Jose SaberCats, which had just won ArenaBowl XXI. The Rattlers, meanwhile, were coming

off the second-worst record in the league (4-12). Guy immediately went to work. He retained

only three players from the 2007 team and began the 2008 season with nine rookies and seven

second-year players. Arizona would win four more games over the previous year and host a

first-round playoff game against Grand Rapids. Guy finished second in voting for AFL Coach

of the Year, one of only four coaches to receive votes for the award. In 2010, the Rattlers would

post their first winning season (10-6) since 2004 and reach the National Conference semifinals,

losing 57-49 to the Spokane Shock.

While the AFL reorganized in 2009, Guy continued his duties with the Rattlers and served as a

consultant to the general manager and head coach of the Rio Grande Valley Dorados (af2). Guy

assisted with all aspects of the organization, including business and football operations. With

the help of Guy’s advisement, Rio Grande Valley return to the af2 playoffs after failing to reach

Guy left the af2 with the most wins in the history of the league when he joined the SaberCats

in 2005. His 52 victories came in his four seasons, an average of 13 wins per season. He picked

up a Coach of the Year award along the way and finished with a 73.2 winning percentage while

leading the Tennessee Valley Vipers (2002-04) and Dorados (2005).

In 2005, Guy led the Texas-based Dorados to a 10-6 regular-season record and a trip to the

league’s National Conference championship game. The Dorados’ last victory that season, a 65-

42 decision over Tulsa in the playoffs, lifted him to the top of the league’s coaching leaders.

With Tennessee Valley, Guy’s teams won 39 of 48 regular-season games and claimed a division

title each season. In 2003, the Vipers won their first 14 games and reached the conference

championship game. Guy would be named Coach of the Year.

Guy’s teams consistently were ranked near the top of all major statistical categories during his

tenure as an af2 coach. He had 31 players advance from the af2, with five joining the National

Football League. He had 14 players earn All-af2 recognition.

In 2001, Guy became the defensive coordinator for the AFL’s Florida Bobcats, where his

defense limited opposing teams to fewer than 30 points per game twice and forced 26

turnovers. Florida also averaged six defensive stops per game.

Guy joined the coaching ranks after an AFL playing career that lasted four seasons. He began

the 2000 season as the defensive coordinator of the New Jersey Red Dogs. At 26, he was

elevated to interim head coach for the last four games. His team was ranked fourth in the AFL

in total defense and fifth in pass defense. Over those final four games, the Red Dogs averaged

almost 10 more points per game than over the first 10 games.

As a player, Guy spent four seasons with the Minnesota Fighting Pike (1996), the Red Dogs

(1997-99) and the Orlando Predators (1999), primarily as a wide receiver and defensive back.

He helped the Predators reach ArenaBowl XIII.

GAME 1: APRIL 1, 2016, @ PORTLAND

ARIZONA MELTS STEEL 80-28 Phoenix, Ariz. – The five time World Champion Arizona Rattlers (1-0) began the regular season with a victory over the Portland Steel (0-1) Friday night at the Moda Center in Portland Oregon by a score of 80-28 in front of 6,782 fans.The Arizona Rattlers started fast, and physically dominated the game for all four quarters. The Rat-tlers offense, led by quarterback Nick Davila scored on nine of the ten drives they had in the game. The Arizona defense pitched in as well, adding three more scores. Defensive back Arkeith Brown and wide receiver/linebacker Kerry Reed each with a pick six, and defensive lineman Damien Borel returned a fumble for a touchdown.“Our defense was playing really good,” General Manager and Head Coach Kevin Guy said, “and our offense was really efficient tonight. We only got stopped once. It was a great team effort.”The Rattlers’ secondary led by Arkeith Brown, came in as one of the biggest question marks of the night, but left looking like it did not miss a step. Brown, on the Steel’s second drive of the game, picked off quarterback Danny Southwick, and took it to the house.“Arkeith (Brown) has been a great player for us for years,” Guy said. “You also have to give a lot of credit to the guys up front for providing the pressure, which allowed us to get our hands on some balls.”Davila, the Under Armour Offensive Player of the game, and wide receiver Rod Windsor, the Rid-dell Defensive player of the game, did not seem to miss a step. They connected seven times for 84 yards and four touchdowns. Davila finished the night 10 of 16 for 124 yards and five touchdowns.The first quarter began with the Steel scoring on the second play from scrimmage, with a 38 yard pass from Southwick to wide receiver, Nick Truesdell for the touchdown. Truesdell appeared to be injured during the play and did not return.The Rattlers responded with a touchdown pass from Davila to Windsor to cut the lead to one. Brown doubled the score with his interception on the ensuing drive.The rest of the game was all Rattlers. Defensive lineman Damien Borel recovered a fumble and returned it for 6 in the second, putting Arizona up 32-14.The third quarter began with a screen pass from Davila to fullback Mykel Benson, making the score 53-21.Steel quarterback Kasey Peters came in to replace Southwick in the 4th, and on his first drive, threw a perfect pass to wide receiver Tom Gilson, however, this was the last time the Steel would score.The Rattlers added two more touchdowns on the ground by Benson, who ended the game with four total touchdowns; three rushing and one from the air.The Rattlers’ next opponent will be the Los Angeles KISS. The game will take place next Saturday, April 9th, at the Honda Center in Anaheim, Cali. at 8:00 p.m. PDT. The game will be nationally televised on ESPN 2, and streamed online on ESPN3.com or the WatchESPN app on a tablet or smartphone.

GAME 2: APRIL 9, 2016, @ LOS ANGELES KISS

RATTLERS DOMINATE KISS 69-28

Anaheim, Cali. – The five time World Champion Arizona Rattlers (2-0) take sole possession

of first place with a victory over the Los Angeles KISS (1-1) Saturday night at the Honda

Center in Anaheim, California by a score of 69-28 in front of 6,427 fans.

The Rattlers controlled the game on all fronts. The defense once again shined, allowing

less than 30 points in two straight games, despite missing linebacker Tyre Glasper.

Defensive back Allen Chapman led the secondary with two interceptions, both in the

fourth quarter, to earn the Riddell Defensive Player of the Game. Defensive back Arkeith

Brown also had a pick. Defensive end Luis Vasquez had a big game as well with two

sacks.

The offense, led by quarterback Nick Davila, the Under Armour Offensive Player of the

Game, was efficient, completing 20 of 26 passes for 193 yards and five touchdowns.

Fullback Mykel Benson also added three more touchdowns on the ground. He now has

73 career rushing touchdowns, passing Rodney Filer (71 touchdowns) and tying Adrien

McPherson (73 touchdowns) for 9th all-time.

On special teams, kicker Alex Zendejas went 9-10 on the point after with the one miss

being blocked. The Rattlers’ wide receiver Anthony Amos also returned a kickoff for a

touchdown.

“I thought Amos played excellent tonight,” said Guy. “It was his first game for the Rattlers.

He will only grow from here as he learns our offense.”

The Rattlers got things started quickly with a two play scoring drive that ended with a four

yard touchdown pass from Davila to wide receiver Rod Windsor. Zendejas made the point

after to make the score 7-0. After a turnover on downs, which featured a sack by Vasquez,

the Rattlers scored again, this time with a four yard rush by Benson.

The KISS got their only score of the quarter with an eight yard pass from quarterback

Nathan Stanley to wide receiver Donovan Morgan.

Arizona ended the quarter with an over the wall one yard catch by wide receiver Kerry

Reed putting the Rattlers up 21-7.

The Rattlers and the KISS traded jabs in the second, with KISS wide receiver Donovan

Morgan scoring twice, once in the air and once on the ground. Arizona scored with two

touchdown passes from Davila, one to wide receiver Chase Deadder, and the other to

Windsor.

The KISS started the second half with the ball, but on a 2nd and 7 from the Rattlers’ 16

yard line, Stanley threw an interception to Brown in the end zone for a touchback. The

Rattlers made them pay six plays later with another touchdown pass from Davila to

Windsor.

LA responded with a touchdown pass from Stanley to wide receiver Brandon Collins;

however, this will be the last time the KISS will score in the game.

On the ensuing kick-off, wide receiver Anthony Amos returned the kick for six. Benson

ended the scoring in the third with a three yard rush for a touchdown.

The fourth quarter began with Rattlers’ defensive back Allen Chapman picking off Stanley,

his first of two interceptions in the final stanza. Arizona went on to score two more

touchdowns, a one yard rush from Benson, and a 45 yard pass from quarterback Shane

Boyd to Windsor.

GAME 3: APRIL 16, 2016, VS TAMPA BAY STORM

RATTLERS CONQUER THE STORM, 60-27Phoenix, Ariz. – The five time World Champion Arizona Rattlers (3-0) won their sixth

straight home opener when they defeated the Tampa Bay Storm (0-3) Saturday night at

Talking Stick Resort Arena by a score of 60-27 in front of 14,872 fans, the largest home

crowd for the Rattlers since April 16th 2010.

Arizona Quarterback Nick Davila’s day couldn’t have started better. Six hours before the

game, he was blessed with the birth of his third child.

“I’m headed (to the hospital) now,” Davila said. “They watched the game there. She will be

on my butt for fumbling.”

Aside from the fumble, Davila had an exceptional night, earning the Under Armour

Offensive Player of the Game for completing 28 of 37 pass attempts for 248 yards and 7

touchdowns. Davila still has yet to throw an interception this season.

The defense once again stepped up tonight. For the third straight game, the Rattlers have

held their opponent to under 30 points. Linebacker Tyre Glasper recovered a fumble,

returning it 32 yards for a touchdown, which was the AFL Highlight of the game. Glasper

also sacked Tampa Bay’s quarterback Jason Boltus on a fourth down play. For all of his

efforts, Glasper was the Riddell Defensive Player of the Game.

This is also the third straight game where the Rattlers have won by at least 30.

“We are going to grind it out,” General Manager and Head Coach Kevin Guy said. “It’s

about the grind, teams get better or worse, but they don’t stay the same.”

It was all Rattlers in the first, beginning with the coin toss, flipped by the NFL’s Arizona

Cardinal’s Head Coach Bruce Arians, and deferred. The Rattlers proceeded to score after

two four and outs by the Storm. Both passes were from Davila, the first to wide receiver

Rod Windsor, the second to wide receiver Maurice Purify. The quarter ended 13-0 in favor

of the Rattlers.

The Storm started to warm up in the second quarter, scoring on a 30 yard pass from

Tampa Bay quarterback Jason Boltus to wide receiver T. T. Tolliver. After the first four

and out this season by Arizona, Boltus again completed a touchdown pass, this time a

41-yarder to wide receiver Phillip Barnnett, to tie the game at 13 all.

This was when the Rattlers took the game over. Davila threw another touchdown pass to

wide receiver Chase Deadder to re-take the lead. On the ensuing drive, linebacker Tyre

Glasper recovered a fumble by Boltus and returned it 32 yards for the score. On Tampa

Bay’s very next drive, Glasper sacked Boltus on fourth down. The Rattlers burned the rest

of the half on the next drive, scoring with eight seconds left from a pass from Davila to

Purify. The score was 33-13 at the end of the half.

The second half started the same way the first half did, with a touchdown pass from Davila

to Windsor. They connected again at the end of the quarter for a 4 yard touchdown catch.

Tampa Bay scored in the third with a 15 yard touchdown pass from Boltus to wide receiver

V’Keon Lacey.

The Storm scored again five seconds into the fourth with a 1 yard touchdown from Boltus,

making the score 47-27.

The Ratters finished the night with a five yard pass from Davila to Windsor, and a 40 yard

interception return for a touchdown by wide receiver / linebacker Kerry Reed.

GAME 4: APRIL 22, 2016, @ JACKSONVILLE SHARKS

RATTLERS DEFEAT THE SHARKS IN OVERTIME 75-68This was the first time the Rattlers have had to play in overtime since the first game of the 2014 season (45 games).

On offense, Rattlers Quarterback Nick Davila earned the J. Lewis Small Playmaker of the Game award for throwing for 390 yards and eight touchdowns. He did, however, throw his first two interceptions of the season. Fullback Mykel Benson had another all-arena type game rushing for 29 yards (4.1 yards per rush) and three touchdowns.

Defensively, the Rattlers came up big late in the game, with a forced fumble on a late fourth quarter kickoff by linebacker / wide receiver Kerry Reed, and an interception by Arkeith Brown in overtime to end the game. Allen Chapman also had a big game, tallying 5.5 tackles and 3 pass breakups. Chapman earned the Riddell Defensive Player of the Game.

It was a seesaw battle through much of the first half, with the Rattlers scoring, and the Sharks responding. The first quarter featured back to back rushing touchdowns, first by Arizona’s fullback Mykel Benson, followed up by Jacksonville’s fullback Derrick Ross. Rattlers quarterback Nick Davila ended the scoring in the first half with a 41-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Maurice Purify.

The second quarter began with a seven yard touchdown pass from Shark’s quarterback Tommy Grady to wide receiver Anthony Jones. Davila responded with a six yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Rod Windsor. Grady once again knotted the game up with a 14-yard pass once again to Jones for six.

The Rattlers were temporarily able to put some distance between themselves and the Sharks when Benson was able to score on a two yard rush. Arizona was then able to force a four and out, and on the next play, Davila threw a 29-yard touchdown pass to Purify.

The Sharks were able to get back in the game with a last second touchdown pass from Grady to wide receiver Joe Hills, which was the Cutters Catch of the Game. Hills also earned the Under Armour Offensive Player of the Game Award. The Rattlers led at halftime 34-27.

The third quarter belonged to Jacksonville. It started with a quick 35-yard strike from Grady to Hills for the score. Four plays later, Davila was intercepted for the first time this season by defensive back LaRoche Jackson. The Sharks were then able to capitalize with a 33-yard touchdown rush by Ross, taking their first lead of the game.

The Rattlers were able to close out the third with a four yard touchdown pass from Davila to Purify. The third quarter ended with both teams equal at 41.

The two teams again traded blows in the fourth, with the Sharks scoring three touchdowns on passes from Grady to Hills, and the Rattlers scoring on three passes from Davila to Windsor (2) and Purify (1). With 53 seconds to go, the game was all tied up at 62.

On the Sharks next drive, Tommy Grady threw a 9 yard pass with 35 seconds left in the game to Joe Hills for the touchdown to take the lead. However, the Jacksonville kicker Marco Capozzoli missed the extra point, opening the door for the Rattlers. On the ensuing possession, Mykel Benson rushed in for his third touchdown of the night, but Rattlers’ kicker Kenny Spencer also missed the point after. On the next kickoff, Rattlers linebacker Reed forced Sharks return man David Hyland to fumble the ball, and was recovered by defensive back Marquis Floyd.

With a short field, the Rattlers looked to end the game, when Davila threw his second interception of the game in the end zone with six seconds remaining. In an attempt to end

the game, the Sharks tried a hook and lateral, which was fumbled by Hills, and recovered by

Reed, who returned it to Jacksonville’s 6-yard line. However, the clock showed all zeros and

the game would go into overtime with a score of 68-68.

The Sharks won the toss but differed, kicking the ball off to the Rattlers. The Rattlers would

capitalize, scoring in five plays with a pass from Davila to Purify. Jacksonville would not be

able to respond, when on fourth down, Brown would intercept a pass from Grady to end the

game.

GAME 5: APRIL 30, 2016, VS PORTLAND STEELRATTLERS BREAK THE STEEL, 68-21Phoenix, Ariz. – The five time World Champion Arizona Rattlers (5-0) stayed undefeated

with a win over conference foe, Portland Steel (0-4) at the Talking Stick Resort Arena in

Phoenix, Arizona in front of 11,510 fans.

The Rattlers were once again playing tough on both sides of the ball. Offensively,

quarterback Nick Davila completed 14 of 18 passes (78%) for 246 yards and 7 touchdowns.

He was only sacked once.

“(The opposing) defense dictates who gets the ball,” Davila said when asked about his

pass efficiency. “I just try to be perfect with my decision making.”

On the defensive side, the secondary flexed their muscles with two newcomers having

a huge night. Defensive back Al Phillips made a solid contribution in his Rattlers’ debut,

amassing 6 tackles and a pick.

“We got a lead and I was able to put Al Phillips in there,” General Manager and Head

Coach Kevin Guy said. “You know, he’s only been here three days.”

Defensive back KJ Morton also had a big night with four tackles, and kept his man from

being targeted for most of the night.

“(KJ) is solid,” said Guy. “I don’t think he’s given up a touchdown yet. They keep testing

him, but he is stronger than people think he is.”

As good as Phillips and Morton were, the strength of the secondary came from defensive

back Arkeith Brown. He tallied 10.5 tackles and had an astounding six pass breakups. His

efforts earned him the Riddell Defensive Player of the Game award.

“Arkeith has been waiting to get in that middle,” Guy said, referring to Brown’s switch from

the corner position to safety.

The first quarter started very similar to the opening night game in Portland. The Steel

came out and scored quickly, with a touchdown pass from quarterback Kasey Peters to

wide receiver Tyrone Goard to take an early lead. And just like opening night this would

be the last time the Steel would score in the first quarter.

The Rattlers offense matched Portland’s pace to start the game. On their first possession,

Davila threw a 48 yard pass to wide receiver, Rod Windsor, however the point after was

missed. On the ensuing possession, Peters fumbled the football and it was picked up by

linebacker Tyre Glasper and returned it one yard for the score. For the rest of the quarter,

both defenses stiffened, with each team forcing a turnover on downs, and at the end of

the first the score was 13-7.

Arizona continued to roll in the second quarter, scoring 21 straight points with three

touchdown passes from Davila, two to wide receiver Anthony Amos, and one to wide

receiver Maurice Purify. The Steel were finally able to get back in the end zone from a

1-yard touchdown pass from Peters, to Goard with seven seconds left in the half. The

Rattlers led 34-14 at halftime.

The Rattlers defense came out strong in the second half registering five sacks. These

included three straight in the fourth quarter by defensive end Chris McAllister, nose

tackle Anttaj Hawthorne, and defensive end Dimetrio Tyson, who earned the J. Lewis

Small Playmaker of the Game award. In all, Arizona held Portland to one second half

touchdown.

On the other side of the ball, Nick Davila threw three more touchdowns, two to Windsor

and one to Purify. Windsor also rushed for one more.

Quarterback Shane Boyd came in to the game late in the fourth and ran in for the final

touchdown of the game

2016 SEASON IN REVIEWGAME 6: MAY 7, 2016, @ ORLANDO PREDATORS

RATTLERS LOSE TO THE PREDATORS 77-59Orlando, Fla. – The five time World Champion Arizona Rattlers (5-1) dropped their first

game of the season against the undefeated Orlando Predators (6-0) by a score of 77-59 at

the Amway Center in Orlando, Florida in front of 10,512 fans.

Quarterback Nick Davila had a solid night, completing 23 of 34 passes for 301 yards and

seven touchdowns. He also had one pick, and was sacked once. His efforts, however, were

not enough to get the win.

Despite the loss, there was one bright moment of the night for the Rattlers. Wide receiver

Rod Windsor became the all-time receptions leader for the Rattlers, eclipsing Rattlers’

legend Hunkie Cooper (776).

Orlando received the ball and got the scoring started with a six yard pass from Predators’

quarterback Randy Hippeard to wide receiver Brandon Thompkins. Hippeard earned the

Under Armour Offensve player of the Game award and Thompkins earned the J. Lewis

Small Playmaker of the Game award. The Rattlers responded two plays later with a 29-

yard touchdown pass from Davila to wide receiver Anthony Amos. After a four and out

which featured multiple penalties by Orlando, and a sack by defensive end Damien Borel,

Arizona scored again with a two yard pass from Davila to wide receiver Maurice Purify.

Orlando tied the game again at 14 with a 35-yard touchdown pass from Hippeard to wide

receiver Greg Carr as the time expired.

The Rattlers took the lead again early in the second with a touchdown pass from Davila to

Windsor, the pass that made him the all-time receptions leader. The point-after from kicker

Kenny Spencer was missed, making the score 20-14.

At this point, the Predators re-took the lead and would never relinquish it. Orlando scored

with a one-yard rush by jack linebacker Terrance Moore. The next series, Davila threw

and interception in the end-zone to defensive back Paul Stephens, which was the AFL

Highlight of the Game. Orlando scored again with a one-yard run by wide receiver Larry

Brackens.

The Rattlers scored again with a six-yard touchdown pass from Davila to wide receiver

/ jack linebacker Chase Deadder. The Predators, however, would close out the half with

two touchdown passes from Hippeard to Brackens. At halftime, the Rattlers trailed the

Predators 42-27.

The third quarter was a see-saw battle, where each team traded scores. The Rattlers

scored on two touchdown passes from Davila, one to Purify, the other to Windsor.

Rattlers kicker Spencer left the game early in the third, causing Arizona to go for the

two-point conversion through most of the second half. Amos also returned a kickoff for a

touchdown late in the third.

The Predators answered every Rattlers’ score with three touchdown passes from

Hippeard, one to Carr, one to Thompkins, and one to wide receiver Jordan McCray.

The Predators pulled away in the fourth quarter where after a four and out by the Rattlers,

Hippeard threw a s38-yard touchdown pass to Carr, which was the Cutters Catch of the

Game. The Rattlers were able to score two more times, but the Predators would be able

to hold on with a final score of 77-59.

2016 SEASON IN REVIEWGAME 7: MAY 14, 2016, @ PHILADELPHIA SOUL

RATTLERS LOSE TO THE SOUL, 65 – 58

Philadelphia, Pa. – The five time World Champion Arizona Rattlers (5-2) dropped their second game of the season against the Philadelphia Soul (6-1) by a score of 65-58 at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in front of 8,505 fans.

Despite the loss, two Rattlers players reached major career milestones Saturday night. Arizona’s all-time receptions leader, wide receiver Rod Windsor surpassed 10,000 receiving yards in his career. Quarterback Nick Davila reached two plateaus, surpassing 30,000 career passing yards and 700 career passing touchdowns.

Both Davila and Windsor had big nights statistically. Davila completed 26 of 42 passes for 316 yards and 8 touchdowns, while Windsor had 153 receiving yards and two touchdowns. This was not enough however, as the Rattlers dropped their second straight game.

The last time the Rattlers lost two straight games was at the end of the 2014 season. That year Arizona would go on to win ArenaBowl XXVII.

The Soul jumped to an early lead over the Rattlers with a two-play drive that ended in a nine-yard touchdown pass from Philadelphia quarterback Dan Raudabaugh to wide receiver Darius Reynolds. Then, after a fumble by Rattlers fullback Mykel Benson, the Soul again scored from a four-yard rush by wide receiver Shaun Kauleinamoku to put Philadelphia up 14-0. Arizona was finally able to get on the scoreboard late in the first quarter with a 32-yard touchdown pass from Davila to wide receiver Maurice Purify.

Philadelphia quickly responded in the second quarter with a 25-yard touchdown pass from Raudabaugh to Kauleinamoku. On the ensuing drive, Arizona took the ball down to the Soul five-yard line, but failed to punch it in. The Soul would then take the ball down to Arizona’s six-yard line, but opted to kick the field goal, extending their lead to 17.

After the two teams traded touchdowns, Arizona would close the gap with an 11-yard touchdown pass from Davila to Purify. Arizona trailed Philadelphia at the half by a score of 31-21.

The Rattlers received the ball in the second half and took advantage, scoring on a six-play drive that was capped off with a five-yard touchdown pass from Davila to Purify.

After the kickoff, Philadelphia would score on the next play with a 21-yard touchdown pass from Raudabaugh to Kauleinamoku.

The Rattlers would respond with a screen pass from Davila to fullback Mykel Benson, to once again pull within three. This pass pushed Davila to 700 touchdown passes in his career.

At this point, Philadelphia’s special teams took over. Arizona attempted an on-side kick, but defensive end Jeramie Richardson scooped up the ball and returned it for a touchdown. The very next kickoff, linebacker Joe Goosby had a big hit on wide receiver Anthony Amos forcing him to fumble. The ball was recovered by defensive back Tracy Belton, who earned the Riddell Defensive Player of the Game award. The Soul would take advantage with a four-yard rush from Richardson, which pushed the Soul lead to 16.

The fourth quarter was a cat and mouse game, where the Rattlers would score, but the Soul would respond, and with the help of two successful two-point conversions the Rattlers would close the gap, but it was not enough to make up the deficit, losing by 7.

2016 SEASON IN REVIEWGAME 8: MAY 21, 2016, VS LOS ANGELES KISS

RATTLERS DEFENSE ROCKS THE KISS, 47-34Phoenix, Ariz. – The five time World Champion Arizona Rattlers (6-2) get back in the win column with a 47-34 victory over conference foe, LA KISS (3-4) at the Talking Stick Resort Arena in Phoenix, Arizona in front of 14,519 fans.

The Rattlers defense came up huge in defeating the KISS. Arizona had two interceptions returned for touchdowns, 11 pass breakups, and a sack.

“I know Bubba has been taking a lot of heat from our fan base,” Guy said. “I don’t care what anyone says, Bubba can play and he can help us win a championship.”

New faces on defense also played a big role. Defensive back KJ Morton got his first start in the middle, and he impressed in a big way, getting six pass breakups to go along with two tackles.

“We made some changes to get better on defense,” said Guy. “We put the rookie KJ Morton in the middle. I thought he battled all night long.”

Wide receiver / linebacker Chase Deadder looked like he was finally starting to reach his potential on defense, tallying 6.5 tackles and one interception, which he returned for a touchdown.

“I’ve been working at Jack (linebacker) since training camp, and that pick six made my day,” said Deadder. “It was just nice to be able to contribute to the team as a jack and I feel like I’m picking things up better as I go.”

Deadder had an impressive night offensively as well. He had eight catches for 106 yards and two touchdowns. His efforts on both sides of the ball earned him the J. Lewis Small Playmaker of the Game award.

A new face on the Rattlers offense also showed up, and in a big way. Wide receiver Joe Matthews, in his first professional game, earned the Under Armour Offensive Player of the Game award, hauling in five catches for 84 yards and three touchdowns.

Arizona looked a little shaky early on when on their opening series Davila threw an interception in the end zone to defensive back Clevan Thomas, who ran it back 22 yards to their own 20 yard line. The Rattlers defense, however, was able to step up and force a 4-and-out on LA. Three plays later, Davila threw a 22-yard touchdown pass to Matthews. The point after was missed by kicker Alex Zendejas.

On the next series, the KISS took their only lead of the game when quarterback Nathan Stanley threw a 40-yard bomb to wide receiver Donovan Morgan for the score. LA led Arizona at the end of the first 7-6.

The Rattlers took the game over in the second with a 15-yard touchdown pass from Davila to Matthews. On the KISS’ next possession Stanley’s pass was intercepted by defensive back Allen Chapman and returned 48-yards for the touchdown, which was the AFL Highlight of the Game.

The KISS finally responded with a 20-yard pass from Stanley to wide receiver Brandon Collins. LA’s defense held strong on the next series, forcing the Rattlers to a 4-and-out. They were unable to capitalize; however, when on third down, Stanley was intercepted by wide receiver / linebacker Chase Deadder and returned 11-yards for the score. KISS quarterback Stanley was hurt on the play and would not return.

The KISS looked like they might get back in the game when, with 9 seconds left, backup quarterback Pete Thomas threw a 14-yard touchdown pass to Morgan, the point after was missed by kicker Joey Cejudo. The Rattlers, however, would get a big 25-yard return from wide receiver Anthony Amos, and on the final play of the half, Davila would throw his third touchdown pass of the night to Matthews, a 31-yard touchdown strike to put the Rattlers up 34-20. This was the Cutters Catch of the Game.

The Rattlers and the KISS traded punches in the 3rd with both teams scoring twice. The KISS scored off two touchdown passes from Thomas to Collins. Arizona retaliated with two scores, both from Davila to Deadder.

Neither team scored in the fourth, and the game ended with the final score 47-34.

RATTLERS LOSE TO THE STORM, 63 – 56Tampa Bay, Fla. – The five time World Champion Arizona Rattlers (6-3) lost to the Tampa

Bay Storm (1-7) by a score of 63-56 at the Amalie Arena in Tampa Bay, Florida in front of

8,298 fans.

The Rattlers led by 13 points going into the fourth quarter, but the Storm scored 21

unanswered points and would eventually hold on for the victory.

Wide receivers Rod Windsor and Chase Deadder made up the bulk of the Rattlers offense,

combining for 235 yards receiving and seven touchdowns. Quarterback Nick Davila had a

good night statistically, completing 22 of 36 passes for 341 yards and seven touchdowns.

He did, however, throw one interception, and was sacked twice.

On the other side of the ball, defensive back Keiron Jones led the Rattlers defense with 7.5

tackles and one pass breakup, in only his second game. Defensive backs KJ Morton and

Al Phillips each broke up two passes as well. Unfortunately, it was not enough to earn the

win.

The first quarter was a see-saw battle, with each team scoring twice. The Rattlers scored

with 36-yard and 37-yard touchdown passes respectively from Davila, the first to wide

receiver Rod Windsor, the second to wide receiver / linebacker Chase Deadder. The

Storm responded to each score with a one-yard run from quarterback Jason Boltus, and a

25-yard touchdown pass from Boltus to wide receiver Gerald Young. The quarter ended

14-all.

The Rattlers scored first in the second, with a seven-yard touchdown pass from Davila to

Deadder. The Storm responded with Young returning the ensuing kickoff 56-yards for the

score.

Arizona countered with a 7-yard touchdown pass from Davila to Deadder, then after a

Tampa Bay four-and-out, the Rattlers scored again on a 2-yard rush by fullback Mykel

Benson. The Storm would score one more time before the half with a four-yard rush by

backup quarterback Adam Kennedy.

The half ended with a pair of turnovers, the first, an interception thrown by Davila to

defensive back Cortez Stubbs, the second, a botched snap by Bolt us, recovered by

defensive end Cliff Dukes. The Rattlers led 35-28 at halftime.

The third quarter began with a 26-yard touchdown pass from Boltus to wide receiver

from Davila to Deadder. After Arizona forced another four-and-out on the Storm, the

Rattlers scored again with a six-yard touchdown pass from Davila to Windsor. The Rattlers

led 48-35 after three.

The Storm began the fourth quarter scoring 21-straight points, with three touchdown

passes from Boltus, two to Barnett, the third to wide receiver T.T. Tolliver.

The Rattlers would tie the game with 21 seconds left on the clock with a 21-yard

touchdown pass from Davila to Windsor, but the Storm would respond with a quick 28-

yard touchdown pass from Boltus to Toliver, leaving three seconds left on the clock.

Davila threw one last pass attempt to wide receiver Joe Matthews, but the ball would sail

wide out of bounds with no time left on the clock.

2016 SEASON IN REVIEWGAME 10: JUNE 3, 2016, @ CLEVELAND GLADIATORS

RATTLERS WIN BIG IN CLEVELAND, 77 – 62Cleveland, Ohio – The five time World Champion Arizona Rattlers (7-3) extended their

National Conference lead with the victory over the Cleveland Gladiators (5-5) by a score of

77-62 at the Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland, Ohio in front of 11,797 fans.

Both Arizona and Cleveland came into this game with a chance to sit atop of the National

Conference, but a strong second half led to the Rattlers taking the big, 2-game advantage.

The Rattlers offense looked like they were firing on all cylinders. Quarterback Nick Davila

completed 23 of his 33 passes for 289 yards and nine touchdowns. He did not throw an

interception and was sacked once. His efforts earned him the Under Armour Offensive

Player of the Game award. Four of Davila’s touchdowns went to Rod Windsor, who

caught eight total passes for 86 yards. He was the J. Lewis Small Playmaker of the Game.

Fullback Mykel Benson also got in the end zone three times, twice on the ground and once

in the air.

Arizona’s special teams also played a big part in tonight’s big win. Wide receiver Joe

Matthews and defensive back Arkeith Brown combined for five returns for 102 yards,

averaging over 20 yards an attempt. A forced fumble near the end of the third quarter by

defensive end Chris McAllister on kickoff coverage, which was recovered by defensive end

Leon Mackey, proved to be the turning point of the game.

The entire first half was a seesaw battle with the Gladiators scoring and the Rattlers

responding, the only difference being a missed point after from Cleveland kicker Adrian

Trevino.

Cleveland received first and took advantage, scoring on a 17-yard touchdown pass from

quarterback Arvell Nelson to wide receiver Collin Taylor. Arizona responded with a 22-

yard touchdown pass from Davila to wide receiver Rod Windsor. The Gladiators would

close out the quarter on the next drive with a 2-yard touchdown pass from Nelson to wide

receiver Quentin Sims.

The Rattlers scored first in the second with a 13-yard pass from Davila to wide receiver

Maurice Purify.

Each team would score four more touchdowns leading to halftime. For the Rattlers, Davila

threw two touchdown passes to Windsor, one to wide receiver Chase Deadder, and one to

fullback Mykel Benson. For the Gladiators, Nelson threw two touchdown passes to Sims,

one to wide receiver Devin Wilson, and one to wide receiver DJ Brandel.

Arizona started the scoring in the third quarter with a 19-yard touchdown pass from Davila

to Purify which extended their lead. Cleveland would respond with a 23-yard touchdown

pass from Nelson to Taylor. The Rattlers scored again late in the third with a 16-yard

touchdown pass from Davila to Windsor. The game finally took a turn in Arizona’s favor

when, on the ensuing kickoff, Beavers fumbled the ball and it was recovered by defensive

end Leon Mackey. The quarter ended with the Rattlers leading 56-48.

The Rattlers began the fourth quarter with a six-yard run from fullback Mykel Benson.

After a four-and-out from the Gladiators, Benson again scored, this time a one-yard

scamper.

The Gladiators responded with a four-yard rush of their own by Beavers.

The Rattlers and Gladiators would each score one more time, Arizona with a 17-yard

touchdown pass to tight end Michael Simons, and Cleveland with a one-yard rush by

Nelson. The final score stood at 77-62 in favor of the Rattlers.

2016 SEASON IN REVIEWGAME 11: JUNE 11, 2016, VS PORTLAND STEEL

RATTLERS VANQUISH THE STEEL, 76 – 49Phoenix, Ariz. – The five time World Champion Arizona Rattlers (8-3) swept the three game regular season series with a win over conference foe, Portland Steel (1-9) by a score of 76-49 at the Talking Stick Resort Arena in Phoenix, Arizona in front of 14,401 fans.

Offensively, Arizona continued to roll, scoring both in the air and on the ground. Quarterback Nick Davila earned the Under Armour Offensive Player of the Game, completing 24 of 33 passes for 270 yards and eight touchdowns. Fullback Mykel Benson scored two touchdowns on the ground. The overall play of the offensive line was also noteworthy.

“The offensive line did a great job of blocking all night,” said Davila. “They didn’t give up any sacks, so that’s always a plus when you’re a quarterback and you can just read the defense and feel comfortable in the pocket.”

Special teams played a big role as well. Wide receiver Anthony Amos returned five kickoffs for 135 yards. He also returned one 54-yards for a touchdown, which was the AFL Highlight of the Game.

“I thought he played faster tonight,” said General Manager and Head Coach Kevin Guy. “Not necessarily on kickoff return but as a receiver, he ran some good routes tonight and as long as he keeps doing that, he’s going to see more playing time.

Defensively, the Rattlers welcomed back a familiar face; with defensive back Jeremy Kellem returning to the team earlier this week. Kellem was the GoRVing Defensive Back of the Year last season.

“Just to be able to get back out there on the field was amazing,” said Kellem. “It’s a great feeling to be out there with the team and the crowd; some had posters. It was just a great feeling, something I really appreciated.”

The Steel started the scoring with a 43-yard bomb from quarterback Shane Austin to wide receiver Tom Gilson for six. The point after was good and the Steel led 7-0.

After a 28-yard kickoff return by wide receiver Anthony Amos, the Rattlers responded with a pass from Davila to wide receiver Rod Windsor to tie the game. After the Arizona defense forced a four-and-out, Davila threw another touchdown pass, this time a 21-yarder to wide receiver Maurice Purify. The Rattlers led after the end of the first quarter 14-7.

The second quarter started with another long touchdown pass from Austin to Gilson, this time for 41-yards. The extra point was no good. The Rattlers responded with wide receiver Anthony Amos taking the ensuing kickoff to the house with a 54-yard kickoff return. After the Rattlers defense forced a second four-and-out, Davila threw a 14-yard touchdown pass to Windsor, putting the Rattlers up 27-13.

Both teams would take turns scoring for the rest of the half. Portland had three touchdowns thrown by Austin, one to Gilson, and two to wide receiver Jamar Howard. Arizona had three touchdowns thrown by Davila, two to wide receiver Chase Deadder, one to Purify, which was the Cutters Catch of the Game. The half ended with a score of 48-31.

The Rattlers took a commanding lead at the start of the third with a 7-yard touchdown pass from Davila to Windsor, and after the Arizona defense forced the third turnover on downs of the game, fullback Mykel Benson ran 7-yards for another score. The Steel went

scoreless in the third and the quarter ended with a score of 62-31.

The teams traded punches in the fourth. Portland scored three times, two passes from

Austin, one to Gilson, the other to wide receiver Jared Perry, and a seven-yard rush from

Austin. The Rattlers scored twice, once from an 11-yard pass from Davila to Purify, the

other a six-yard run from Benson. The Rattlers ended the game on top, 76-49.

2016 SEASON IN REVIEWGAME 13: JUNE 26, 2016, @ LOS ANGELES KISS

DEFENSE LIFTS THE RATTLERS OVER THE KISS, 64 – 49Anaheim, Cali. – The World Champion Arizona Rattlers (10-3) sweep the three game

regular season series with a win over conference foe, the LA KISS (5-7) by a score of 64-

49 at the Honda Center in Anaheim, Cali., in front of 7,090 fans.

The Rattlers had a big first half, outscoring the KISS by 21. A big, 27-point, third quarter

by LA made the game interesting, but the Rattlers held the KISS scoreless in the fourth,

extending their win streak to four.

Arizona’s defense played a critical role in today’s 15-point victory. They were led by the

J.Lewis Small Playmaker of the game defensive back Jeremy Kellem, who had two critical

interceptions, and returned a fumbled PAT (point after touchdown). Defensive backs

Arkeith Brown and KJ Morton also each had a pick, Morton returned his for a touchdown.

The Rattlers defensive front also caused some commotion, with defensive end Damien

Borel getting 1.5 sacks, and defensive end Rodney Fritz also getting in there with a half a

sack.

Offensively, Rattlers quarterback Nick Davila looked strong in the first half, but struggled

down the stretch. Overall he completed 20 of 33 passes for five touchdowns. He did

throw two interceptions, both in the second half.

The Rattlers took it to the KISS early, with a 10-yard touchdown pass from Davila to

wide receiver Chase Deadder. On the KISS first possession, defensive back KJ Morton

intercepted a pass by LA quarterback Pete Thomas, and returned for six, and just like that,

the Rattlers led 14-0.

LA finally reached the endzone late in the first, with a 2-yard touchdown run by Thomas,

however the extra point was missed by kicker Joey Cejudo, and Arizona led after one, 14-6.

The Rattlers led off the second quarter with a four-yard pass from Davila to wide receiver

Maurice Purify. The KISS responded with a 39-yard touchdown pass from Thomas to wide

receiver Justin Wilson. The snap on the PAT, however, was bobbled and scooped up by

defensive back Jeremy Kellem, and returned for two points.

Rattlers extended their lead again with a 13-yard touchdown pass from Davila to Purify.

After Thomas’ second interception, this time by Kellem, The Rattlers scored again with a

two-yard run by fullback Mykel Benson. LA responded with a 40-yard touchdown bomb

from Thomas to Morgan.

The Rattlers closed out the half with a six-yard touchdown pass from Davila to Purify. The

PAT, however, was blocked and returned by defensive back Josh Victorian for two points,

and the half ended with an Arizona lead, 43-22.

The KISS surged in the third, scoring 20-straight points. First was a five-yard touchdown

run by fullback Rory Nixon. After a turnover on downs by the Rattlers, the KISS scored

again, this time from a 19-yard touchdown pass from Thomas to Morgan. Following an

interception thrown by Davila, LA scored on another touchdown pass from Thomas, this

time to Nixon. The PAT (point after touchdown), however was missed.

The Rattlers finally got on the board in the second half with a 34-yard touchdown run by

Benson. The KISS ended the quarter with a 43-yard pass from Thomas to Morgan. With

the third quarter winding down, the Rattlers lead dwindled down to 1, with a score of 50-

49.

Arizona pulled away again in the fourth, with back-to-back touchdown rushes by Benson,

both 1-yard runs. The KISS failed to score in the fourth and the game ended with the score

of 64-49.

2016 SEASON IN REVIEWGAME 14: JULY 9, 2016, VS JACKSONVILLE SHARKS

RATTLERS TAKE NATIONAL CONFERENCE TITLE WITH WIN OVER SHARKS, 69-67Phoenix, Ariz. – The five-time World Champion Arizona Rattlers (11-3) clinched the

National Conference title with a win over the Jacksonville Sharks (5-8) by a score of 69-67

at the Talking Stick Resort Arena, in front of 11,874 fans.

The Rattlers had already clinched the National Conference title just prior to taking the

field, when the Cleveland Gladiators (7-7) lost to the Philadelphia Soul (11-3) earlier in the

day. Arizona’s win was significant, however, since it sets up a battle for the first seed next

weekend against the league leading Orlando Predators (11-2).

This win has personal significance to general manager and head coach Kevin Guy. He now

has 115 wins in his AFL career, which ties him with Mike Dailey for fifth all-time in wins.

The game was a seesaw battle throughout the entire second half of the game. A missed

extra point by Jacksonville’s kicker Lindsey Wolfe late in the fourth and a missed two-point

conversion proved to be the difference.

Quarterback Nick Davila also had a big night, completing 25 of 34 passes for nine

touchdowns. He did throw one interception.

The Rattlers started the game off with a seven-yard screen pass from Davila to fullback

Mykel Benson for the score. The Sharks responded with a 17-yard touchdown pass from

quarterback Tommy Grady to wide receiver Anthony Jones. The point after by Lindsey

Wolfe was missed.

Arizona scored again on their second possession from a 35-yard touchdown pass from

Davila to Windsor.

On Jacksonville’s next possession, Grady fumbled the ball on a sack by defensive end

Rodney Fritz. The ball was scooped up by Rattlers’ defensive end Dimetrio Tyson, which

was the AFL Highlight of the Game. The quarter ended with the Rattlers leading 14-6.

The Rattlers took advantage of the extra possession early in the second with an 8-yard

touchdown pass from Davila to Windsor. The Sharks returned the favor with a 20-

yard touchdown pass from Grady to wide receiver Joe Hills. Davila, on Arizona’s next

possession, was intercepted by defensive back Alvin Ray Jackson. The Sharks would

drive the length of the field and score on a six-yard touchdown pass from Grady to wide

receiver Reggie Gray.

After the one-minute warning, Jacksonville and Arizona traded punches, both scoring

twice to end the half. Both of Grady’s touchdown passes were to Hills. Davila’s first

touchdown pass was to Purify, his second to Windsor as time expired, which was the

Cutters Catch of the Game. The half ended with the Rattlers leading 41-34.

Both teams continued to alternate scoring throughout the second half. In the third

quarter, Sharks quarterback Grady threw two touchdown passes, the first, a nine-yard pass

to Gray, the other, a 13-yard pass to wide receiver Andrew Robustelli. For the Rattlers,

Davila threw a five-yard touchdown pass to Windsor, and Benson ran the other one in on a

two-yard score.

The fourth quarter began with a 19-yard touchdown pass from Grady to Hills. The PAT,

however, was missed, which was the turning point of the game.

Davila threw two more touchdowns to Windsor. Grady threw two more touchdowns, one

to Jones, the other to Hills. The two point conversion attempted by Grady flew in the

stands and the game ended, 69-67 Arizona.

2016 SEASON IN REVIEWGAME 15: JULY 18, 2016, VS ORLANDO PREDATORS

RATTLERS TAKE DOWN TOP SEED PREDATORS, 62-45Phoenix, Ariz. – The five-time World Champion Arizona Rattlers (12-3) extend their league

leading win streak to six with a win over the Orlando Predators (12-3) by a score of 62-45

at the Talking Stick Resort Arena, in front of 9,628 fans.

A strong second quarter defensively and an efficient offense kept the Rattlers out front

for most of the game.

Defensively, Arizona made big stops when they needed it. In the second quarter, Jeremy

Kellem picked off Orlando quarterback Bernard Morris off the net in the endzone, halfway

through the second, which was the AFL Highlight of the Game. Overall, the Rattlers

defense had a sack, seven pass breakups and a fumble recovery.

With this win over Orlando, Arizona is now riding a league leading six game win streak

with just one game left to play this season.

The Rattlers and Predators went back and forth in the first, with Arizona scoring on two

passing plays, the first from Davila to wide receiver Rod Windsor, the second from Davila

to wide receiver Chase Deadder. Orlando scored on two passing plays, the first from

quarterback Bernard Morris to wide receiver Larry Brackens, and the second from Morris

to wide receiver Brandon Thompkins. The difference in the quarter came from a missed

point after (PAT) from Rattlers’ kicker Alex Zendejas. The first quarter ended with the

Predators up 14-13.

The Rattlers defense came up big in the second, holding the Predators scoreless. Arizona

scored twice in the second, with Davila throwing a three-yard touchdown pass to

Deadder, and Windsor rushing for a 1-yard score with five seconds left in the half. After

two the Rattlers led 27-14.

Both teams once again traded scores in the third. The Predators scored from an 11-yard

pass from Morris to wide receiver Lamark Brown, and a 36-yard scamper from Morris.

The Rattlers scored off two touchdown passes from Davila, the first an 11-yard pass to

Windsor, the second, a 9-yard pass to Benson. The Rattlers led 48-21 after three.

Orlando scored early in the fourth with a 40-yard touchdown pass by Morris to

Thompkins. The Rattlers responded with a 30-yard pass from Davila to Purify, who

dragged three defenders into the endzone with him for the score, which was the Cutters

Catch of the Game.

The Rattlers then extended their lead with a net recovery off the kickoff by wide receiver

Anthony Amos. Benson would score on the next play with a two-yard rush. Orlando

responded with an eight-yard rush by Morris. The Rattlers scored one more time with a

19-yard pass by Davila to Amos.

2016 SEASON IN REVIEWGAME 16: JULY 24, 2016, VS CLEVELAND GLADIATORS

RATTLERS DISMANTLE GLADIATORS IN SEASON FINALE, 68-20Phoenix, Ariz. – The five-time World Champion Arizona Rattlers (13-3) end the regular

season with a win over the Cleveland Gladiators (7-9) by a score of 68-20 at the Talking

Stick Resort Arena, in front of 12,823 fans. This win kept the Rattlers perfect at home in the

regular season for the second time in three seasons.

The Rattlers jumped on the Gladiators early, with Arizona’s offense, defense, and special

teams all contributing to the scoreboard before Cleveland got their first points. The

Rattlers would then ride the momentum the rest of the way to victory.

Defensively, the Rattlers played at another level, only allowing the Gladiators to score three

times. In total, Arizona forced three fumbles, one interception and had five sacks.

Linebacker Tyre Glasper played like a man on a mission, recording two sacks and was in

Cleveland’s backfield through most the game.

Glasper’s play earned him the Riddell Defensive Player of the Game Award.

The Rattlers’ offense also had a big night. Quarterback Nick Davila completed 20 of 25

passes for six touchdowns and one interception. His play earned him the Under Armour

Offensive Player of the Game award. Five of those touchdowns went to wide receiver Rod

Windsor, who earned the J. Lewis Small Playmaker of the Game award.

The Rattlers kicked off to start the game, but on the first play from scrimmage, defensive

end Rodney Fritz tackled Cleveland’s wide receiver Taylor Collins in their own endzone for

a safety. Then, on the ensuing kickoff, wide receiver Anthony Amos returned the kickoff

to add six more. The extra point was good. The Rattlers defense then forced a four-and-

out, and on the next play, Davila threw an 11-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver Rod

Windsor and with just a minute and a half into the game, the Rattlers led 15-0.

Cleveland finally found the back of the end zone with a 16-yard touchdown pass from

Nelson to wide receiver Larry Beavers. Arizona responded with a two-yard touchdown

pass from Davila to Windsor, and the first quarter ended with the Rattlers leading 22-7.

The Rattlers continued to dominate in the second. Arizona’s defensive back KJ Morton

forced a fumble on Cleveland wide receiver Devin Wilson which was recovered by

defensive back Jeremy Kellem. The Rattlers would score two plays later from a 28-yard

touchdown pass from Davila to Windsor. On the Gladiators next drive, Nelson was sacked

by Fritz, who forced another fumble, which was scooped up by wide receiver / linebacker

Dan Buckner and carried in for the score.

Cleveland would get their only other touchdown of the half from a 15-yard touchdown

pass from Nelson to wide receiver Collin Taylor. The Rattlers would again respond; with six

seconds left, Davila threw a four-yard touchdown pass to Windsor. The half ended with the

Rattlers leading 42-14.

The third quarter was all Rattlers. Davila threw a 23-yard touchdown pass to wide receiver

Maurice Purify. After another four-and-out by Cleveland, Davila threw another touchdown

pass to Purify, this time a five-yard pitch and catch. After three quarters, the Rattlers led

55-14.

The final quarter featured quarterback Shane Boyd for the Rattlers. He threw two

touchdowns, one to fullback Mykel Benson, the other to Windsor. Cleveland scored their

only points in the fourth from a 17-yard pass from backup quarterback Stephen Panasuk to

Taylor for six. The final score was 68-20, Rattlers.

AFL COMMISSIONER

COMMISSIONER SCOTT C. BUTERA Three important assets greeted Scott Butera when the Arena Football League asked him to be its new Commissioner at the end

of the 2014 season. The first was a committed ownership group eager to grow the Arena Football’s undervalued brand. The

second was a talented, dedicated group of players, coaches and staff poised to deliver a fast-paced, highly entertaining version of

America’s favorite sport. The most important was a passionate and intensely loyal group of fans.

For Butera, now in his second full year as commissioner, it was a familiar scene. He spent much of his career dusting off brands

by unlocking their hidden values. This time there was the added allure of working on a product for which he admits a certain

fanaticism. “Football is my sport. I’ve followed it from childhood and I played it in school. It’s literally been a lifetime passion.”

Having made a name for himself by lifting the fortunes of major brands like Tropicana and Foxwoods, Butera arrived at the

AFL ready to apply his finely honed business operations and marketing instincts. He did what has made him successful in other

ventures. He focused on the positives and used them as building blocks to the future. And there is a lot to build on at the AFL.

Besides owner commitment and staff passion, Butera thinks he’s inherited compelling inventory. For one, America’s love of football

seems almost insatiable. No less than 86 percent of US TV households tuned into the pro sport last Fall; and last summer, the

Arena League experienced a respectable growth spurt. Game attendance popped by 3.5 percent over the previous year. The AFL

Championship Game at Stockton Arena in San Jose, California attracted a near sellout crowd. TV viewership of the arena game also

rose and the League widely increased its social media footprint in 2015.

The challenge for year one, Butera claims, was stability, and it has been largely achieved. For year two the goal is brand building

and growth positioning. Butera doesn’t think that the League needs to retool the game product. The issue is to build a greater

following for it. There is a perceived performance gap in the sport – no games from February to August – and Butera is intent on

filling it with the high energy, fan-friendly style of football that is played in his League.

Butera describes AF as the ultimate combination American favorites. America’s favorite sport: football. America’s favorite season:

summer. America’s favorite speed: fast. American’s favorite price: family. The challenge is to get more exposure for the game and its

people. “We need to show people how much fun they can have by following Arena Football.”

Butera succeeded in getting ESPN and CBS Sports to buy in with more plentiful game broadcasts. For the first time in 2016, there

will be a game of week. The arrangements help get more eyeballs on the game which in turn helps attract strong promotion

partnerships with companies who want to give the smart phone generation – millennials and moms, especially – a pulse-raising in-

arena experience and ways to engage through mobile technologies and social media.

Butera has a few things going for him as he works to grow the Arena Football League. For one, he is a skilled financial executive

who has a knack for squeezing a lot of value out of every dollar. For another, as one of his owners said, “He is very solid, steady and

talented … an excellent guy with great business instincts.”

Plus, Butera is no stranger to sports marketing. At his last business stop, he helped Foxwoods Resort enter into successful

marketing partnerships with the Boston Red Sox, New York Yankees, New York Rangers, New York Knicks and Madison Square

Garden.

Butera possesses a rare combination of skills that have helped him revitalize brands.

“He’s an investment banker at heart, a great transaction guy,” says Tom Benninger, former global head of restructuring at UBS

Investment Bank. “But in the last few years, I think he’s really developed his operational skills. It’s pretty unique to have someone be

really good at both.”

This rare blend of talents helped him as CEO of Tropicana Entertainment (2008-11) where he managed to revitalize the iconic brand

through strategic capital investments, improved regulatory relations, and highly targeted marketing. All the while, he kept the reins

on expenses.

Born and raised in Massachusetts, Butera began his financial career in investment banking, spending 20 years with UBS Investment

Bank, Credit Suisse First Boston, Smith Barney and Bear Stearns & Co. During that time, he concentrated on analysis and client

service for companies in real estate, lodging, gaming and leisure industries.

He earned his MBA at New York University’s Leonard N. Stern School of Business. He recently served as a member of the Board of

Fellows at his alma mater Trinity College.

FIELD • An indoor padded surface 85 feet wide and 50 yards long with eight-yard end zones. • Goal posts are nine (9) feet wide with a crossbar height of 15 feet (NFL goal posts are 18-1/2 feet wide with the crossbar at 10 feet). • The goal-side rebound nets are 30 feet wide by 32 feet high. The bottoms of the nets are eight (8) feet above the ground. • Sideline barriers are 48 inches high and made of high-density foam rubber.

EQUIPMENT • The official football is the same size and weight as the National Football League ball. Each ball is manufac-tured by Spalding, a division of Russell Corporation.

PLAYERS AND FORMATIONS • Eight players on the field; 21-man active roster; three-man inactive roster.• Players may play both offense and defense.• Substitution: Coaches are permitted to substitute players at will.• Four (4) offensive players must line up on the line of scrimmage.• Three (3) defensive players must be down linemen (in a three- or four-point stance). One linebacker may blitz on either side of the center. Alignment is two-or-more yards off the line of scrimmage. No stunting or twist-ing.• Offensive motion: One receiver may go in forward motion before the snap.

@arizonarattlers

MOVEMENT OF THE BALL AND SCORING• Four (4) downs are allowed to advance the ball ten (10) yards for a first down, or to score.

• Six (6) points for a touchdown.

• One (1) point for a conversion by place kick after a touchdown, two (2) points for a conversion by drop kick and two (2) points for a successful run or pass after a touchdown.

• Three (3) points for a field goal by placement or four (4) points for a field goal by drop kick.

• Two (2) points for a safety.

KICKING• Kickoffs are from the goal line. Kickers may use a one-inch tee.

• Punting is illegal. On fourth down, a team may go for a first down, touchdown or field goal.

• The receiving team may field any kickoff or missed field goal that rebounds off the net.

• Any untouched kickoff, which is out of bounds, will be placed at the 20-yard line or the place where it went out-of-bounds, whichever is more advantageous to the receiving team.

PASSING• Receivers must have one foot inbounds for a catch. A forward pass that rebounds off the

rebound net or sideline barrier is a live ball and is in play until it touches the playing surface.

OVERTIME RULES• Overtime periods are 15 minutes for both the regular season and the playoffs.

• Each team gets one (1) possession to score. If, after each team has had one possession, one team is ahead, that team wins. If the teams are tied after each has had a possession, the next team to score wins.

GLOSSARY OF TERMSBALL IN THE STANDS When a ball is thrown or bounces into the seats surrounding the playing field, the “lucky” fan that catches the ball keeps it.

DROP KICK A drop-kicked FG is worth 4 points. A drop-kicked extra point is worth 2 points. Spokane Shock kicker Taylor Rowan was the last man to connect on a two-point dropkick (7/22/2011 vs. Jacksonville).

FANS More than 26 million fans have experienced an AFL game in the League’s 24-year history. Last year, in 2011, the AFL drew 1,338,544 fans in the regular season.

IRONMAN Signifies participants playing both offense and defense.

“MAC” AND “JACK” LINEBACKERS “Mac” may rush the QB straight on without stunting, twisting or drop-back coverage. “Jack” must stay within an imaginary box behind the line of scrimmage. Either LB may cover the fullback or tight end.

OFFENSIVE MOTION Unlike stadium-played football, one offensive back may go into forward motion prior to the snap of the ball.

OVERTIME Arena Football has a unique overtime rule: If a contest is tied after regulation, teams will play a 15-minute overtime. Each team will have one opportunity to score. If, after each team has had one chance to score, the game is tied, the first team to score is crowned the winner.

REBOUND NETS Goal-side rebound nets extend outward from each upright. The nets are 30-feet wide, 32-feet high and extend to 40 feet above the playing surface. The bottom bars of the frames are positioned eight (8) feet above the surface. The “scoring area” is nine-feet wide and 15-feet high. Nets are stretched taut so that a missed kick attempt will rebound off the net and back into the field of play. Once the ball caroms off the net, it’s live.

SIDELINE BARRIERS Similar to the sideboards that surround a hockey rink, the sideline barrier encircles the playing surface. The barrier is made of a high-density foam pad, measuring four (4) inches thick.

STUNTING OR TWISTING When a defensive lineman is rushing the passer, there’s no “stunting” or “twisting.” In other words, linemen are required to power past offensive linemen.

TIGHT END One offensive lineman must declare himself a tight end prior to the snap by simply raising his arm and “declaring” himself a tight end. The Mac (rush-eligible) linebacker must line-up on the opposite side of the center from the tight end.

TWO-WAY PLAYERS One of the most “throwback” features of the Arena Football League is the fact that the game features eight-on-eight football, where at times, some players will play both offense and defense.

MISCELLANEOUS INFORMATION

ROSTER LIMITS From the first day the League allows the signing of free-agent players until the first league-sanctioned cut-down date, teams are prohibited from having more than 35 players on their roster. Players listed on the active list or free-agent signees are considered eligible to be counted for the 35-man roster. Teams will be required to reduce their active lists to 28 players by 5 p.m. CST 14 days before the first regular season game and to 24 players by 5 p.m. CST seven days before the first regular season game.

Each team may maintain a maximum 20-player roster and 4-player practice squad during the season. In a documented emergency, a team may add an emergency kicker to their roster, no later than one hour before kickoff.

TRADES Upon reporting to his new team, each traded player must pass the physical given by his new team. Failure to pass the physical and/or failure to report will nullify the trade.

RESERVE LISTS The reserve list of each team consists of the following categories; retired, refused to report, inactive reserve, injured reserve, suspended, other league exempt and physically unable to perform.

INJURED RESERVE A player who is placed on injured reserve list must remain on injured reserve for a minimum of four weeks. Training camp weeks will not count against that total. Teams activating players from their injured reserve list must do so no less than 24 hours prior to that team’s game.

@arizonarattlers

PLAYOFF QUALIFICATION, SELECTION OF TEAMSEight teams qualify for the playoffs, four from each conference-- American and National. The four qualifying teams in each conference consist of the two division champions and two Wildcards, determined by best overall record. Seeding in each conference is based on overall record, with the top two seeds in each conference reserved for the division champions, regardless of record. In the First Round, August 15-16, the first two seeds in each conference are the two division winners. The next two teams are seeded by next best two overall records. Teams ranked 1 and 2 earn home playoff games with 1 hosting 4 and 2 hosting 3. In the Conference Championship Round, August 22-23, the winner of the 1-4 game plays the winner of the 2-3 game. The home team is decided by the team with the higher seed. The winners of the Second Round will face off in ArenaBowl XXVIII on August 29th, with the highest remaining seed hosting the championship game.

TIEBREAKING PROCEDURESIf, at the end of the regular season, two or more clubs are tied with identical won-lost percentages, the following steps will be taken to determine rank.

DIVISION CHAMPIONS – TWO TEAMS

If two teams are tied for Division Championship:
