KEVIN GUYGeneral Manager/Head CoachKevin Guy begins his 11th season coaching in Arena Foot-ball, his seventh as a Head Coach and his third in that po-sition with the Arizona Rattlers. He also adds the duties of General Manager for 2011.

This season, Guy continues his illustrious career in Arena Football. A consistent winner as both a coach and player, Guy owns a winning percentage of nearly 70%, and has never missed the playoffs as a Head Coach in any level of Arena Football. Guy is a member of the arenafootball2 Hall of Fame and holds a championship ring from his work as a coach in ArenaBowl XXI.

Last season, Guy led the Rattlers to the playoffs with a 10-6 record, fourth best in the National Conference. With the playoff appearance, Guy became the first coach in Rattler history to lead his team to the postseason in each of his first two seasons, and it was the team’s first back-to-back playoff appearances since 2003-2004.

The 2010 Rattlers finished near the top of the league in both overall offense and defense, while sporting a pair of record-breaking rookies in WR Rod Windsor and QB Nick Davila.Both recruited to the Rattlers by Guy, Windsor broke AFL records in receptions (193) and receiving yards (2,372), while Davila completed the most prolific passing season in Rattlers’ history, breaking team records in passing yards (4,858), passing TDs (102) and completion percentage (67.3).

Guy now sits in the second spot in all-time wins as a Rattler head coach.

While the AFL was reorganizing in 2009, Guy continued his duties with the Arizona Rat-tlers while also consulting with the General Manager and the Head Coach of the Rio Grande Valley Dorados (af2). Guy assisted with all aspects of the Rio Grande organiza-tion, including business and football operations. Under his advisement, Guy helped Rio Grande return to the af2 playoffs after missing them the year before.

With the Rattlers in 2008, his first with the team, Guy successfully turned around one of the AFL’s most storied franchises after a few down years. After the team finished with the second-worst record in the league in 2007, Guy took over in 2008 and led the team to the third-best in the conference and a first-round home-playoff game. He finished the year as one of only four coaches to receive votes for AFL Coach of the Year, and as the runner up for the award. Guy built the team virtually from scratch, ending 2008 with only three players from the 2007 team and entering the season with nine rookies and seven second-year players.

Under Guy, the Rattlers’ defense led the AFL in rushing yards allowed per game and per carry, and held teams to the fewest first downs per game. The defense led the league in red-zone efficiency. Opponents scored only 67.1 percent of the time they were inside the 10 yardline, five percent better than the AFL’s second-ranked red-zone defense (New York, 72.1%). Arizona was the only team in the league to hold its opposing quarterbacks to under a 59.9% completion percentage for the entire season.

Guy joined the Rattlers on August 10, 2007, shortly after winning ArenaBowl XXI as the defensive coordinator of the San Jose SaberCats. Under Guy, the SaberCats were known as one of the league’s best defensive squads and also advanced to the American Confer-ence Finals in 2006 in addition to the ArenaBowl victory. In 2007, under Guy’s leadership, the SaberCats allowed the second fewest points in the league, an average of only 47.6 points per game. The SaberCats finished fifth in the league in both yards allowed per game with 281.3 and in passing yards allowed with 266.2. Coach Guy’s defense also led the league in red-zone defense (71.4 percent), fumble recoveries (20), fumble returns (18), fumble return average (6.7) and interception returns for touchdowns (5). The Sa-berCats were also second in turnover margin (+21), fumble returns for touchdowns (5), and first downs allowed (311), third in interceptions (22), and fourth in sacks (19).

In Coach Guy’s first season with the SaberCats, the team finished fourth in turnover margin with plus-seven, a dramatic improvement from the team’s minus-one margin the year before. They improved from 16 to 18 interceptions, 11 to 16 fumbles recovered, one to four interceptions returned for touchdowns, and scored two touchdowns on fumble returns after having none the prior year.

When Guy joined the San Jose SaberCats in 2005, he left the af2 with the most wins in the history of the league. Guy amassed 52 career wins in his four seasons, averaging 13 victories a season. He also grabbed a Coach of the Year honor and finished with a .732 winning percentage while leading the Tennessee Valley Vipers (2002-04) and Rio Grande Valley Dorados (2005).

Guy spent 2005 as Head Coach and Director of Football Operations for the Texas-based Dorados, leading the club to a 10-6 regular season record and a trip to the league’s Na-tional Conference championship game. The Dorados’ last win in 2005, a 65-42 win over Tulsa in the playoffs, lifted Guy to the top of the league’s coaching leaders.

Before heading to Rio Grande, Guy serve as Head Coach and Football Operations Direc-tor of the Tennessee Valley Vipers, winning 39 of 48 regular season games and claiming a division title in each season. During the 2003 campaign, the Vipers won their first 14 games and advanced to the Conference Championship game, earning Guy the Coach of the Year award.

During Guy’s tenure as an af2 coach, his teams were consistently ranked near the top of the major statistical categories while working with rosters that had experienced a high

rate of turnover. Guy had 31 players in four years advance from the af2, with five joining the National Football League. He has also coached Ironman of the Year, Defensive Player of the Year, and Lineman of the Year award winners while having 14 players earn All-af2 recognition.

In 2001, Guy became the Defensive Coordinator of the Florida Bobcats of the AFL where his defense held its opponents to fewer than 30 points a game twice and forced 26 turn-overs on the year. The Bobcats also averaged six defensive stops per game.

Guy joined the coaching ranks following an AFL playing career that lasted four seasons. He started the 2000 campaign as the Defensive Coordinator with the New Jersey Red Dogs before, at only 26 years of age, being elevated to Interim Head Coach for the re-maining four games of the season. His team ranked fourth in the AFL in total defense and fifth in pass defense. Over the final four games as Head Coach, the Red Dogs scored an average of nearly 10 points a game more than the first 10 games.

As a player, Kevin played four seasons in the AFL, playing with the Minnesota Fighting Pike (1996), the New Jersey Red Dogs (1997-99), and the Orlando Predators (1999) pri-marily as a WR/DB, and helped the Predators advance to ArenaBowl XIII.

Kevin attended the University of West Alabama (formally Livingston University) from 1991-1995. He was born December 6, 1972 in Birmingham, Alabama.

GAME 01: AZ 61, CLE 56CLEVELAND – Arizona Rattlers football was officially back Saturday night, and Head Coach KEVIN GUY’s squad got things started off with a bang. The Rattlers defeated the Cleve-land Gladiators 61-56 at Quicken Loans Arena in Ohio.

Down 35-14 to open the second half, Arizona star WR TRANDON HARVEY returned the opening kickoff 58 yards for score. But the special teams weren’t done yet, as DB TER-RANCE SANDERS returned a kickoff for a touchdown to bring Arizona to within one point, 49-48 with 8:08 to play in the game. Arizona would finish the night with seven kickoff returns for 212 yards.

Cleveland would then extend their lead to eight on a Ben Nelson touchdown. But Arizona rebounded with two consecutive receiving touchdowns by WR ROD WINDSOR, the last with just 3:30 to play, to take a 61-56 lead.

Sanders then stepped up big again, intercepting Cleveland QB John Dutton’s final pass with just over 1:40 to go to seal the win for the Rattlers. It was Arizona’s fourth intercep-tion of the day, and Sanders was the fourth player to score a pick. DB RILEY SWANSON also returned an earlier interception 24 yards for a touchdown.

The Rattlers starting QB NICK DAVILA, who joined the team after winning the ArenaCup last season, completed 26-of-39 passes for 273 yards and four touchdowns. Davila con-nected six different receivers, but Windsor was his favorite target, as Windsor grabbed 13 passes for a game-high 175 yards and two touchdowns.

GAME 02: CHI 70, AZ 56PHOENIX – The Arizona Rattlers were back in the desert for the first time in nearly two years Friday night, playing in front of a packed house at USAirways Center in the first free professional event in sports history.

The team played a back and forth match-up with the Chicago Rush all night, but came up short in the end, dropping a heartbreaking 70-56 decision.

Despite the loss, the Rattlers offense put up some tremendous numbers. All three Rat-tlers starting wide receivers had at least 10 grabs, at least 100 yards and at least one score each. The Russell Athletic Player of the Game, WR JJ MCKELVEY, playing in his first game as a Rattler, came up huge with 12 receptions for 110 yards and four scores. Rookie WR ROD WINDSOR, who caught 13 passes for 175 yards in Cleveland, followed up that performance with an 11 catch, 108 yard outing on Friday, also netting a touchdown.

At the pace he is currently on, Windsor is poised to break Calvin Schexnayder’s Rattler receiving yards record. Schexnayder ran off 1,982 yards in 1998. Windsor is currently projected to finish the season with 2,264 yards. The Rattler rookie record is held by WR TRANDON HARVEY, who netted 1,412 his first season in 2007.

Harvey, who was also named the Nifty Playmaker of the Game, hauled in 10 catches for 121 yards and 2 scores. Harvey also added six kick returns for 121 yards; over a 20 yard average per return.

Arizona’s defense intercepted Rush QB Russ Michna twice, bringing their season total to six. DB RILEY SWANSON, who was named AFL Defensive Player of the Week in his first ever AFL game in Cleveland two weeks ago, added his second pick of the season.

It was a back and forth battle for most of the night for the Rattlers and the Rush. Arizona seemed poised to break the log-jam early in the second quarter following Swanson’s in-terception, however Chicago’s Nygel Rogers stepped in front of Rattler QB NICK DAVILA’S pass and returned it 14 yards for the touchdown. Davila finished the night with eight touchdown passes and 354 passing yards.

Things repeated themselves late in the fourth quarter when Arizona DB SERGIO GILLIAM snagged a Michna pass to give Arizona the ball back with under three minutes to play. However this time it was Rush WR/LB DeJuan Alfonzo who got the better of Davila, run-ning back an interception 48 yards for the game-clinching score. Alfonzo received the Spalding Highlight of the Game and the Riddell Defensive Player of the Game awards for his efforts.

The Rattlers are back in the Snake Pit next Friday night when they take on the Tulsa Tal-ons in the teams’ first-ever meeting. Kickoff is slated for 7:30pm

GAME 03: AZ 77, TUL 76PHOENIX - Arizona Rattlers WR ROD WINDSOR made spectacular play after spectacular play and finished off his heroic night for the Rattlers with the game-winning touchdown catch and run with no time remaining as the Rattlers pulled out a thrilling 77-76 victory over the visiting Tulsa Talons in front of 10,083 screaming fans at the US Airways Center.

With no time left on the clock and one untimed down remaining, Windsor caught QB NICK DAVILA’S pass short of the end-zone and hustled down the left sideline, evading two Tulsa defenders on his way to pay dirt. In what turned out to be his eighth touchdown of the night, Windsor saved his best for last.

“I told coach and (Nick) that I wanted the ball,” exclaimed an ecstatic Windsor. “They got me going and I had a good game.”

Davila was just as impressive on the night, completing 30-of-42 passes and throwing for a season-high 413 yards, and eight touchdowns, six of which ended up in Windsors hands. In what turned out to be an offensive battle between the previously unbeaten Talons (2-1), the Rattlers pulled out their first home win of the season.

Rattlers Head Coach Kevin Guy was very impressed with his squad and the determination they showed to pull out the win against a very good team.

“You’ve got to give credit to our guys,” said Rattlers Head Coach KEVIN GUY. “They just kept playing.”

JLS Ironman of the game WR ANTHONY MIX started off the scoring for the Rattlers early in the first quarter with a 27-yard one-handed touchdown reception from Davila while bulling over a defender on the way to the goal-line.

Tulsa quarterback Justin Allgood hit receiver Donovan Morgan in the next series to give the Talons an early 14-10 lead. Morgan finished the day as the Nifty Playmaker of the Game with nine receptions, 128 yards and a season high five touchdowns.

Arizona (2-1) got a big help from Windsor on the ground as well, contributing with two rushing touchdowns, the first time a Rattlers receiver accomplished that feat since 2007. Windsor finished the game with 230 yards on 16 receptions highlighted by his six touch-down receptions to earn the Russell Athletic Offensive Player of the Game. On the season, the rookie Windsor has 40 receptions for 513 yards and 10 total touchdowns. He is cur-rently on pace to shatter WR TRANDON HARVEY’S team rookie record of 1,412 receiving yards and could also break Calvin Schexnayders overall team record of 1,982 yards.

Windsor, Mix, and WR JJ MCKELVEY were key contributors in an offense that converted four fourth down conversions with touchdowns. McKelvey made a spectacular leaping catch in the fourth quarter to put the Rattlers on top late and provide the drama in the final minutes highlighted by Windsors game winning touchdown.

GAME 04: TB 62, AZ 61TAMPA - The Arizona Rattlers fell short in their quest for another dramatic come-from-behind vic-tory after a controversial non-call on a 2-point conversion attempt in a 62-61 defeat against the host Tampa Bay Storm.

Despite trailing the entire game, the Rattlers (2-2) showed the same second-half composure and resolve that has become their calling-card early in the season as they overcame another double-digit fourth quarter deficit and set themselves up for a win with under 10 seconds to play. Down 62-55, the Rattlers drove 48 yards in just over a minute and capped off the drive with a tough three-yard touchdown catch by WR JJ MCKELVEY from QB NICK DAVILA with seven seconds remaining. McKelvey had monster game, leading the team in every receiving category with 13 catches for 127 yards and three touchdowns. The Rattlers, however, weren’t content with going into overtime on the road, so they lined up for a gutsy 2-point conversion attempt.

That’s where the controversy began.

As Davila dropped back to pass, WR ANTHONY MIX raced to the back of the end zone but was grabbed and tackled by two different Storm players as the ball was in the air, yet no call was made by the official just a few feet away as the ball fluttered to the ground.

In the face of the tough break, the Rattlers refused to give up. On the ensuing kickoff, K JASON WITCZAK nailed a perfect onside kick that was nearly recovered by the Rattlers but slipped into Tampa Bay’s hands and the Storm (2-2) finished off the final few seconds of the game for the win. With the win, Tampa Bay Head Coach Tim Marcum, already the all-time AFL leader in wins, became the first coach to reach 200 career victories.

In spite of the loss, the Rattlers tandem of star rookies, Davila and WR ROD WINDSOR, remained on pace to set a litany of team and league records. Windsor, who entered the game leading the league in receptions and receiving yards, had another stellar game, finishing with eight receptions for 108 yards and two touchdowns. On the season, Windsor has 48 catches for 621 yards and 10 receiving touchdowns to go along with two rushing scores. He is on pace for 2,484 yards, a number which would shatter Trandon Harvey’s rookie re-cord of 1,412 yards, Calvin Schexnayder’s team record of 1,984 yards, and former Rattler Siaha Burley’s AFL record of 2,129.

Davila had another solid game as the 2009 af2 champion quarterback threw for 314 yards on 27-of-47 passing and 7 touchdowns and no interceptions. He even scored his first rushing touchdown of the season with a nifty 14-yard run in the third quarter. Davila now has 27 passing touchdowns and 1,346 passing yards, an average of 336.5 yards per game. If he continues this torrid mark, he would finish with 5,384 and would break former Rattler Joe Germaine’s AFL record for most passing yards in a season (5,005).

The turning point of the game that gave the Rattlers the chance for the comeback was a brilliant defensive play by LB KELVIN MORRIS. Storm receiver Hank Edwards caught a short pass, but as he was going down, Morris knocked the ball out of Edwards’ hands and pounced on the fumble to give the Rattlers the ball back with 11:36 to play. Two plays later, Mix made a leaping catch against the wall to tie the game at 48 apiece.

GAME 05: SPO 63, AZ 56PHOENIX - Offense was the story coming into the key divisional game between the Arizona Rattlers and the Spokane Shock, but in the end, it was the Shock defense that made the final statement with a 63-56 victory in front of 10,203 fans at U.S. Airways Center.

The teams battled back and forth all game, with both offenses having little trouble. But in the fourth quarter with three seconds left on the clock, the Arizona Rattlers (2-3) had one more chance from three yards out to add the potential game-tying touchdown. Rattlers QB NICK DAVILA chucked the last second prayer off the net but no receivers could come down with it as it landed in the hands of Spokane.

While the loss was tough to take, it was yet another big day for the Rattlers offense. Da-vila, playing in his first game against his former team for which he won an af2 champion-ship last season, had 346 yards passing, going 28-of-43 with seven touchdowns giving him a league-best 1,692 yards.

His favorite target, WR ROD WINDSOR, hauled in 14 receptions for 157 yards and three scores. Windsor continues his incredible season and now has a league-leading 62 recep-tions on the year. His 157 receiving yards now make it his 5th consecutive 100+ yard re-ceiving outing as he maintained his league-lead in that category.

Fellow big play option WR JJ MCKELVEY also had a very successful day. He added seven receptions with four of them ending in pay dirt. McKelvey knows the importance of coming off this week’s Bye hungry to get back on the winning track.

“I told everyone to have fun with their families (during the Bye Week),” McKelvey said, “but when we get back we have to go to work. I’m not comfortable being 2-3… we all have to step our game up.”

DB TERRANCE SANDERS led the team with nine tackles, one for a loss, and a pass break-up; while big DL DARRELL SHROPSHIRE batted down two passes at the line.

This was the first ever meeting between the two teams, and with the win, Spokane (3-2) took the outright lead in the division. Shock quarterback Kyle Rowley threw for 369 yards and seven touchdowns, four of which went to Raul Vijil.

After this week’s bye, the team will travel to Iowa to play the Barnstormers. The game will be broadcast on the NFL Network on Friday, 5/21 at 5:05 pm. The Rattlers have won five-straight in the series, the most memorable coming in 1997 when the Rattlers beat the Barnstormers to capture the ArenaBowl Championship.

GAME NOTESFB JOHNIE KIRTON scored his first AFL touchdown as he bulled his way in for a four-yard score in the fourth. It was the second-straight week a Rattlers rookie FB scored his first career touchdown after FB BRENNAN CARVALHO notched his first last week in Tampa Bay… In his first game back with the team, WR SIAHA BURLEY caught seven passes for 83 yards.

GAME 06: AZ 52, IA 48DES MOINES, IA – The Arizona Rattlers, the top-ranked offensive team in the AFL, showed a different side by putting on a dominating defensive display in holding the host Iowa Barn-stormers to just 48 points in a 52-48 victory on Friday night.

The Rattlers recorded three big sacks in the game, made three defensive stops, blocked an extra point, and pressured Iowa quarterback Ryan Vena nearly every time he dropped back to pass as the Rattlers set a new season-low in points allowed. The Rattlers, who are now back to .500 at 3-3, held Iowa (3-4) to just 89 yards in the first half and 221 total in the game.

The defense came up big early and often, but really showed its strength when it mattered most. With the Rattlers leading 52-48 with less than two minutes to play in the game, the defensive line dominated Iowa’s pass-blockers and kept Vena scrambling for his life. DL DAR-RELL SHROPSHIRE broke free on second down to record the team’s third sack of the game and set up a crucial third-and-12. After another incomplete pass, Shropshire got free again in the backfield forcing Iowa to drag him down for a holding penalty, a costly one that negated a first down catch. On fourth-and-18, the line didn’t quit, applying more pressure and forcing Vena into an incomplete pass that gave the Rattlers the ball back allowing them to run out the clock.

DL ALEX GUERRERO set the tone early, recording team’s first sack of the season on Iowa’s first possession of the game. DL RON JONES got to Vena on the next possession and nearly added a second a few minutes later as his sack and forced fumble was called back on a pen-alty. DL ANTTAJ HAWTHORNE blocked a Barnstormer extra point in the second quarter and the Rattlers defense stopped Iowa twice in the opening half. Iowa was held to a season-low in the half with 20 points.

The Rattlers secondary played exceptionally well, with tight coverage and near interceptions on most every play. DB TERRANCE SANDERS’ fourth quarter interception was called back on a penalty, but Sanders made up for it immediately, returning a kickoff 55 yards for a go-ahead score just a few plays after Iowa took its first lead of the game. Sanders just missed another interception on Iowa’s final drive.

While the defense was the story in this game, the Rattlers vaunted offense wasn’t too shabby either. Rookie start QB NICK DAVILA had another successful game, completing 23-of-34 pass-es for 222 yards and four touchdowns. He added his team-leading third rushing touchdown as well. Davila continued to find his favorite target and fellow record-setting rookie WR ROD WINDSOR as Windsor finished with eight catches for 77 yards and a touchdown and later tied Davila for the team lead with his third rushing touchdown. Both Davila and Windsor entered the game leading the league in major offensive categories with Davila tops in passing yards per game (344.6) and Windsor number one in receiving yards per game (155.8).

The Rattlers prize free-agent acquisition, former Utah record-setting WR JJ MCKELVEY con-tinued to impress after early season injury problems with 12 catches for 131 yards and two touchdowns. He now has over 100 yards receiving in four of five games this season. McKelvey has led the team in receiving yards three times and receptions twice and also has 59 catches for 531 yards in just five games.

GAME 07: AZ 83, UT 58WEST VALLEY CITY, Utah – Despite the fact that the Arizona Rattlers tied a franchise record by scoring 83 points in a wild 83-58 victory over the Utah Blaze, defense was the story for the men in copper and teal in this vital division match-up Friday Night at the E-Center.

For the Rattlers (4-3), the defense made seven total stops in 12 Utah possessions, including three turnovers on down, a forced field goal, and three recoveries of the Blaze’s seven fumbled snaps, one of which ended up in the end zone for an Arizona touchdown. The ferocious unit, which hadn’t recorded a sack in the first five games, upped its season total to five in the past two games after rcording two more tonight. Itheld Utah (1-6) to just six points in the deciding fourth quarter.

“I thought the defense played well,” said HEAD COACH KEVIN GUY, “We have some things to clean up, but it’s all part of the growth process.”

DL MARCUS PITTMAN recovered two of the fumbles, one on a fourth down, and the other for a miraculous touchdown at the end of the first half. With just seven seconds left in the second quarter, Utah fumbled the snap on the 24-yard line and the ball was kicked and batted around by multiple players, all the way back into the end zone where Pittman fell on top for the unlikely touchdown to give the Rattlers a 48-39 halftime lead.

DL RON JONES and LB DARRELL SHROPSHIRE combined on a sack in the third quarter and DL ALEX GUERRERO picked up another later in the second half. The defense held Utah’s offense to just 37 points and allowed only 13 points in the second half, six of which came on a meaning-less score with under a minute to play. Utah’s defense scored 21 of the team’s points as DL Cae-sar Rayford scored three defensive touchdowns, two on battled-ball interceptions and one on a fumble return.

QB NICK DAVILA did not let the unfortunate defensive plays ruin his night, however, as he had another record-pacing game with 335 yards on 28-of-37 passing and team record-tying nine touchdowns. Davila’s backup, QB BILLY FARRIS stepped in late and showed the team that he would be an able replacement if needed by completing his first career pass and throwing a touch-down on his first AFL series. Farris finished 2-for-3 with 21 yards and that touchdown, which went to WR ROD WINDSOR.

“Nick great job managing offense,” said Guy, “and I thought the offense did a great job in execu-tion except for the three turnovers.”

The rookie Windsor was also back in top form after a merely human performance last week, haul-ing in 15 passes for 152 yards and six touchdowns despite having only four catches for 44 yards at the half. Windsor remains on pace to make a run at the all-time league records for receptions and yards in a season.

In his first game back from a four-week stint on the injured reserve, WR TRANDON HARVEY again proved why he was an AFL All-Rookie selection in 2007 and a rising star in 2008 with eight catches for 140 yards and two touchdowns.

FB JOHN BOOKER, playing his first game in that position, recorded his first career touchdown on a one-yard run and later caught a six-yard pass from Davila. Rookie K FABRIZIO SCACCIA, playing in his first AFL game as well, made 11-of-12 extra points.

“Fabrizio did an outstanding job,” said Guy, “he only missed one kick and that was on a bad snap.”

With the win, the Rattlers moved to within one game of division leading Spokane. The Rattlers will now return home to the U.S. Airways Center for three straight games, leading off against one of the league’s best teams. Next week’s game against the 5-2 Milwaukee Iron will be a true test of grit and determination for a team ready to make a push for the playoffs.

GAME NOTESThe Rattlers 83 points were tied for the most in team history and the most scored since 4/20/07, also against the Blaze in Utah in an 83-69 Arizona win… Davila’s nine touchdowns is tied for the team single-game record, done four times and last by Sherdrick Bonner in that same Utah game on 4/20/07… DL ANTTAJ HAWTHORNE recovered the third fumble for the Rattlers… The Rattlers improved to 6-2 all-time against Utah and 4-0 all-time in Utah… WR JJ MCKELVEY caught five catches for 54 yards and a touchdown in his first game back in Utah since his monster year for the Blaze in 2007.

GAME 08: AZ 68, MIL 67PHOENIX – It took overtime and a dive by WR ROD WINDSOR, but the Arizona Rattlers (5-3) overcame an unfortunate mistake at the end of regulation that nearly cost them the game and held on for their third consecutive victory 68-67 over the Milwaukee Iron (6-3).

In front of 10,031 that packed US Airways Center, the Rattlers trailed 67-66 in overtime, but decided to go for the two-point conversion and the win instead of kicking the extra point and taking their chances on winning the coin toss in the second overtime, which in Arena Football signifies sudden death. On the attempt, QB NICK DAVILA pitched the ball back to a sprinting Windsor, he then turned the corner, dove and landed into the endzone giving the Rattlers the victory.

“It was an option play,” said Windsor. I could throw the ball, but I was going to keep it anyway.”

The last time Arizona was in this position to go for two and the win there was a different outcome. In Week 5 against the Tampa Bay Storm the Rattlers went for two and failed on what many considered to be a questionable non-call in the endzone. That didn’t stop Rattlers Head Coach Kevin Guy from rolling the dice again.

Despite the theatrics in overtime, the Rattlers looked like they had the game locked up near the end of regulation thanks to the stellar defense plays of DB BRANDON FREEMAN. With the Rattlers trailing 57-54 and under five minutes to play, Freeman picked off Iron quarterback Chris Greisen in the endzone, as Greisen tried to make a play while falling on his backside. The Rattlers took advantage of the costly turnover and regained the lead 60-57 as the clock hit the one minute warning.

Freeman’s timely plays did not stop there as he made an acrobatic pass breakup on fourth down that was tipped off the net to LB KELVIN MORRIS for the Rattlers third in-terception of the game. Coming into the game Greisen had only thrown one interception in his previous eight contests, but the Rattlers constant pressure and tight coverage was too much for him to overcome.

With the game seemingly in hand and the Rattlers leading by three with three seconds to play, the defense was called for a costly facemask penalty as time expired which gave the Iron one untimed down that lead to a game-tying field goal to send the game into the extra frame.

Windsor had another monster game overall accounting for 16 more receptions for 162 yards and three receiving touchdowns to go along with his two on the ground. Windsor is still on pace to break the AFL record for receptions and receiving yards and now has 101 receptions for 1,170 yards and 26 touchdowns. Windsor and fellow WR JJ McKELVEY ac-counted for all eight of Davila’s touchdown passes and combined to haul in 30 receptions for 348 receiving yards. Davila also completed 37 of his 52 pass attempts on the night for 420 yards and eight touchdowns, giving him 17 in his last two games.

GAME 09: AZ 56, OKC 55PHOENIX - The fortunes of the Arizona Rattlers once again hinged on a deciding two-point conversion with no time left, this time leaving it up to the defense, as the Rattlers defeated the Oklahoma City Yard Dawgz 56-55 at US Airways Center.

Coming off the heels of last week’s exciting overtime win on a game winning two-point conversion, the Rattlers’ defense made the biggest stop of the game to extend the Rattlers season-high winning streak to four games.

As time expired, Yard Dawgz receiver Xavier Lee caught Tommy Grady’s pass and bulled his way to the end zone to put his team within one point. Oklahoma City (3-7) head coach Sparky McEwen decided to go for two after witnessing his kicker miss four extra points ear-lier in the game. A swarm of Rattlers defenders batted the ball away in the corner of the end zone, lead by DB RILEY SWANSON, sending the crowd of 10,115 into a frenzy.

Rattlers’ head coach KEVIN GUY feared his players might have an emotional hangover, but believed his team could pull it out.

“There is a reason why we win these close games; our guys are mentally tough,” said Coach Guy. “A bright spot tonight was our special teams. We had really good kickoff coverage and our kicker made all his kicks.”

The Rattlers set up the final drama one minute earlier on an onside kick return for a touch-down from Swanson.

“They tried to do a dribble kick up the middle and the ball just popped into my hands,” said Swanson. “I was just thinking, ‘scoop it up and score.’”

Swanson and fellow DB BRANDON FREEMAN crushed the hopes of the Yard Dawgz after swat-ting away a desperation heave from Grady.

“We knew it was going to come down to a two-point conversion,” said Swanson, exhausted but relieved to hang on for the win. “We had to make a play on it and we came through.”

The Rattlers fourth straight win matches their best start to a season since 2002, when they finished 11-3.

Arizona WR ROD WINDSOR had another monster game to extend his league leading recep-tions mark to 113. He finished the night with 12 receptions for 147 yards and two touch-downs. Windsor had some highlight-reel plays including a 26-yard catch and run where he cut across the field three times before breaking free and a 30-yard catch where he dragged three defenders 10 yards before finally being tackled at the four yard line. His team leading six touchdown rushes are just one behind the Rattlers record for rushing touchdowns by a receiver, currently held by legend Hunkie Cooper. Fellow Rattlers’ WR TOD DEVOE, playing in his first game since week one, had a stellar game as well, hauling in two touchdown passes from QB NICK DAVILA as well as running in his first of the season.

GAME 10: AZ 79, BSH 50PHOENIX - The Arizona Rattlers celebrated their first ever Latino night in front of a large 10,217 person crowd at US Airways Center with a dominating 79-50 victory over the visiting Bossier-Shreveport Battle wings behind their most known Latino star QB NICK DAVILA who threw for nine touchdown passes.

The Rattlers are clicking at the right time and if there is one thing for sure, they have no problem scoring points.

Led by a high-powered offense and a record breaking performance by star rookie WR ROD WIND-SOR, as well as a suffocating defense, the Rattlers (7-3) took down the Battle Wings to extend their season-high winning streak to five games.

The rookie Windsor added to his breakout season by making 10 catches for 157 yards and a sea-son-high seven touchdown grabs to eclipse the Rattler rookie receiving records for both receiving yards and touchdown catches, both previously held by fellow WR TRANDON HARVEY. His 1,474 receiving yards and 32 touchdown catches are now tops for any Rattlers rookie. Windsor wasn’t satisfied with just breaking Rattler record as he also set the league record for receptions by a rookie and now has 123 on the year.

“(Trandon) is a great player,” said a confident Windsor, “but records are meant to be broken.”

The Latino Davila cemented his status as one of the elite passers in the league, throwing for 319 yards and a franchise-tying nine touchdown passes on his way to earning Russell Athletic Offensive Player of the Game. It was the second time that Davila has thrown for nine touchdowns this season, the first time coming in Utah.

“We played well in all three phases of the game,” said Head Coach Kevin Guy, “we started fast by scoring on the first play of the game and we got up by a few scores and kept our foot on the gas pedal.”

The 29-point winning margin is there largest of the season, coming on the heels of a dominant defensive effort led by JLS Ironman of the Game LB KELVIN MORRIS. Morris was a stalwart in the middle of the defense, picking off Battle Wings quarterback Gary Cooper while also providing the Rattlers with their first safety of the season.

“My first half wasn’t up to par,” said Morris, “I was just trying to lock-in and make some plays for the team.”

The Rattlers defense pulled out all the stops, stopping the Battle Wings (3-8) four different ways. Morris contributed with an interception, safety and forced fumble while a collective defensive ef-fort stopped the Bossier offense on multiple fourth-down plays. The defense as a whole had three sacks, one each from LB DARRELL SHROPSHIRE and DL ANTTAJ HAWTHORNE and a half a sack each for DL MARCUS PITTMAN and DL RON JONES.

After Davila’s ninth touchdown pass, QB BILLY FARRIS replaced the starter and again proved why the coaching staff is so confident the team’s depth. Farris went 2-for-4 for 22 yards and two touch-downs and looked comfortable in the pocket in his two series’ behind center.

The Rattlers finished a three-game home stand in style by bringing their home record to 4-2 amidst the long win streak. The Rattlers will be tested over the next month as they embark on a brutal three-game road trip against the South Division-leading Jacksonville Sharks (7-3, 4-0 at home),

GAME 11: AZ 66, JAX 50JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – The Arizona Rattlers extended their season-high winning streak to six games by opening their brutal road trip on the right track with an all-around im-pressive victory over the Jacksonville Sharks, 66-50 at Jacksonville Veterans Memorial Stadium.

After a three-game home stand that resulted in three wins, the Rattlers (8-3) embarked on a three-game road trip against three division leaders with a combined record of 23-8 starting with the now 7-4 Sharks.

The Rattlers defense dominated right out of the gates, shutting the Sharks out in the first quarter and allowing a season-low for a half 10 points. The defense made four stops in five first-half possessions including an acrobatic interception by LB KELVIN MORRIS on the first drive of the game. The Rattlers then forced Jacksonville into three field goal at-tempts, two of which were missed. Rookie K FABRIZIO SCACCIA, playing in just his fifth game, finished the first-half scoring with a 20-yard field goal, the first of his young career.

The Rattlers record-breaking rookie WR ROD WINDSOR continued to shock and awe as he set his fourth single-season mark in the past two games. Last week, Windsor set the team rookie records for most receiving yards in a season (1,412) and receiving touch-downs (30), as well as the AFL rookie record for receptions in a season (122). Tonight, Windsor, who had 15 catches for 187 yards and three touchdowns including a highlight reel catch as he leaped into the stands for a touchdown, set the team’s all-time record for receptions by any player, a record previously held by Calvin Schexnayder who caught 136 balls in 1998. Windsor now has 138 catches for 1,661 yards and 35 receiving touch-downs, and is on pace to shatter the league records for both receptions and yards receiv-ing.

The Rattlers were in control the entire game with leads as high as 21 points but had to fend off a furious Jacksonville rally in the fourth quarter to hold onto the win. The Sharks cut the lead to 15 late in the final frame and then recovered an onside kick on the ensu-ing kickoff. Despite a big sack from LB DARRELL SHROPSHIRE, Jacksonville went in for another score and cut the deficit to eight.

Fortunately for the Rattlers, backup QB BILLY FARRIS, who was in the game after starter NICK DAVILA was ejected in the third quarter, was up to the challenge. After the Rattlers recovered another onside kick, Farris threw a strike to Harvey for the score to give the visiting squad a virtually insurmountable lead of 59-44. Farris finished with 62 yards on 4-of-6 passing and two touchdowns. He led the team to three scores in his first three drives before running out the clock on his fourth and final drive. Davila was stellar again before exiting the game, completing 19-of-30 passes for 208 yards and five touchdowns thru three quarters. WRs JJ MCKELVEY and TRANDON HARVEY each caught four passes for 42 yards and two touchdowns.

11: AZ @ JAX RECAPDL ALEX GUERRERO sealed the game with a sack, stripping Sharks quarterback Aaron Garcia of the ball which Ron Jones recovered, allowing the offense to run the clock out.

The Rattlers travel up to Washington for the most important game of the season so far against West Division rival Spokane. The Shock (9-2) not only lead the Rattlers by one-game in the division, but also hold the best record in the entire league. Earlier in the sea-son, Spokane narrowly beat Arizona in Phoenix by seven points as the Rattlers had a first and goal at the three-yard line with under 15 seconds to play but couldn’t punch it home due largely in part to an un-called illegal rush by Spokane on the final play of the game.

GAME 12: SPO 37, AZ 36SPOKANE Wash. – They have only played in the same division for a year, but it’s obvious that the Arizona Rattlers and Spokane Shock have already developed one of the most spirited, contentious rivalries in the entire AFL, as evidenced by the Shock’s 37-36 victory over the Rattlers in Spokane Friday night.

Tensions were clearly high and tempers flared all night long in a game riddled with penalties, personal foul calls, and players partaking in extra-curricular activities after the play as both teams understood the significance of the battle. The Rattlers trailed Spokane by just one game entering the contest and both knew that the winner would have the inside track to winning the West Division.

The two highest scoring offenses in the league came into the game with expectations of a wild shoot-out, but both teams played tough defense and forced the opposing offense into short completions and long drives. Each team had only two second half possessions, one in each quarter, and both had multiple drives that lasted seven minutes. In the end, the Rattlers swarming defense couldn’t make the one deciding play to stop Spokane’s offense, and the Shock benefited from a very questionable call to hold on for the victory.

With the Rattlers (8-4) trailing 30-28 with nine seconds left in the third quarter, the Shock (10-2) embarked on a drive that will be remembered for years to come in this rivalry. On the first play of the series, DL ALEX GUERRERO sacked Shock quarterback Kyle Rowley for a six yard loss. After the Rat-tlers defense forced an incomplete pass, DL RON JONES got his turn, sacking Rowley and setting up a key fourth down. On the fourth down play, DB BRANDON FREEMAN made a spectacular play to seem-ingly end the drive, but the Rattlers were called for a tough penalty that kept Spokane’s drive alive. The defense again forced Spokane into a third and long situation, and again the Shock converted. A determined defensive line continued to push forward, pressuring Rowley and forcing yet another fourth down.

Then, the controversy really began. On fourth down, Rowley dropped back and fired a pass into the endzone that skipped through receiver Quorey Payne’s hands and hit against the back wall. The ball appeared to hit the wall and skip off the ground and back into Payne’s body, but the officials declared it a touchdown despite loud protests from the Rattlers bench and a shocked crowd. The score put Spokane up by nine, 37-28, making it a two-possession game. In all, the drive took 13 plays to finish and lasted a remarkable nine minutes and 24 seconds.

QB NICK DAVILA, in his first appearance back in Spokane since winning the Arena Cup for the af2 Shock in 2009, fought admirably to lead the team back against his former team. He led the Rattlers on a gritty 11 play, 40 yard drive that took up over six minutes of game-clock and capped it off with a clutch touchdown pass on fourth down to WR ROD WINDSOR. The two record-breaking rookies had another stellar performance, as Davila went 23-35 for 200 yards and four touchdowns without turning the ball over. Windsor made one great catch after another, finishing with 13 grabs for 92 yards and two touchdowns.

Windsor was involved in another controversial play in the first quarter, catching a nine-yard pass and stretching his arm out over the endzone line before losing the football for what seemed to be a go-ahead score, but the officials ruled he didn’t get in and called the play a fumble, awarding the ball back to Spokane.

For the Rattlers, the loss snapped their season-high six-game win streak and extended the Shock’s to eight games. Spokane now has a two-game lead in the West Division and hold the tie-breaker after winning both games against Arizona this year.

Up next for the Rattlers on their brutal road trip is the 9-4 Chicago Rush, a team they lost to earlier in the season. Despite the score showing a 14-point Rush win, the Rattlers had a chance to tie the game with under a minute to play, but had a pass intercepted and returned for a touchdown.

GAME NOTESThe 37 points the Rattlers allowed were the fewest they’ve allowed this season and the fewest they’ve allowed in a loss since March 6th, 2005 against Los Angeles…. The Rattlers allowed just 10 points in the second half, the second straight game they’ve had a half allowing 10 points or fewer… After al-lowing 64 points per game in their first five games, the Rattlers are allowing a paltry 52.2 over their last seven games… Windsor now has 151 catches on the year, just 16 shy of breaking the all-time AFL record held by former Rattler Siaha Burley… Windsor also has 1,752 yards and only needs 378 yards over his final four games to set a new league record in that category as well… The Rattlers defense now has 11 sacks in the past three games.

GAME 13: CHI 55, AZ 50CHICAGO – What appeared to be a comfortable lead in the National Conference’s race for the playoffs now feels a bit shaky for the Arizona Rattlers after a second-straight last minute nail-biting loss, this time coming at the hands of Midwest Division leading Chicago, 55-50 at Allstate Arena in Chicago.

After a heart-breaking one-point defeat last week in Spokane, the Rattlers again felt the sting of a close loss after making one of the most improbable comebacks you will ever see in arena football just to fall one play short in the end.

Trailing by 17 heading into the fourth quarter, Arizona’s defense stepped up big holding Chicago to a field goal then forcing three consecutive turnovers, including recovering an onside kick with 20 seconds left, to give the Rattlers a chance for the incredible comeback win. The offense had the ball trailing by five in the final moments of the game and set up a first and goal at the six with five seconds to play and the game on the line. After a quick incompletion left just two seconds on the clock, QB NICK DAVILA’s pass fell incomplete in the end zone as time expired to cap a wild game and drop the Rattlers (8-5) to a tie for the final playoff spot with Milwaukee, though the Rattlers hold the tiebreaker after beating the Iron in Arizona.

The defense played strong all game long, but couldn’t get the necessary stops on the Rush’s of-fense in the first half. However in the second half, Chicago could only muster 13 total points, the third straight game the defense held an opponent to 13 or fewer points in a half. The aggressive defense had three more sacks on the night giving them eight in the past three games and made a total of five stops, all coming in the second half. Three different Rattler rushers made the sacks, as DL ANTTAJ HAWTHORNE, DL RON JONES, and LB DALE ROBINSON did the honors.

With the team trailing 55-42 with just over a minute to play and Chicago on offense, the Rattlers never gave up hope. DB BRANDON FREEMAN made a diving interception of Rush quarterback Russ Michna to give the team what seemed to be one final opportunity. Unfortunately, Davila was intercepted on the ensuing possession with just 46 seconds to play and the game seemed well in hand for the Rush (10-4).

However, with less than 50 seconds left, Chicago oddly went against conventional wisdom and threw the ball deep rather than try to run the clock out. While they completed the pass, Rush receiver Marco Thomas tripped, fell, and fumbled the ball, which was recovered and returned by DB TERRANCE SANDERS and the improbable comeback was on.

Davila threw a 22-yard touchdown strike to WR ROD WINDSOR on the next play to bring the Rat-tlers to within five and give the team real hope. That touchdown catch was Windsor’s 166 recep-tion on the year and tied him for the all-time Arena Football record for catches, previously set by former Rattler Siaha Burley in 2007. Windsor already owns the AFL rookie records for receptions and yards and needs just one more catch and 199 receiving yards in his final three games to set the all-time league marks in both of those categories. Windsor finished with 15 catches for 179 yards, two receiving touchdowns, one rushing score, and the former college quarterback even threw for a touchdown in the second quarter.

After Windsor’s score, the Rattlers had to go for an onside kick which K FABRIZIO SCACCIA ex-ecuted perfectly, bouncing the ball off a Rush player’s foot and recovering the live ball himself to set up the dramatic final drive.

The Rattlers never seemed to get into rhythm in the first half and had to fight an uphill battle all night long, falling behind 21-7 after a Davila pass was picked off and returned for a Rush touch-down in the first quarter.

Despite the loss, the Rattlers still appear to be in good position to make the playoffs after fifth seeded Iowa fell to 6-7 after a loss to Oklahoma City on Saturday. The Rattlers hold a two-game lead over the Barnstormers and own the tie-breaker over them as well. The two teams meet up in the final game of the season at the Snake Pit in what could be a playoff-deciding battle.

Up next for the Rattlers is West Division rival Utah. While the Blaze are 1-12 on the year, start-ing quarterback Brett Elliot recently returned from an injury and Utah playing some of their best football of the year. With the win and an Iowa loss, the Rattlers would clinch a playoff birth for the second straight season.

Be sure to come out to U.S. Airways Center on Friday, July 16th for what promises to be a special night for both the team and the fans.

GAME NOTESDale Robinson’s sack was the first of his career… Windsor’s touchdown run was his seventh of the year, tying him with Hunkie Cooper for most rushing touchdowns by a receiver in Rattlers history… The Rattlers offensive line has not given up a sack in six straight weeks and has only allowed one in the past nine weeks.

GAME 14: AZ 48, UT 20PHOENIX – On a night when the Rattlers honored legendary quarterback Sherdrick Bonner, it seemed fitting that current QB NICK DAVILA was handed the proverbial torch as he set or tied two of Bon-ner’s most valued team records in the Rattlers playoff-clinching 48-20 victory over division rival Utah.

There was no shortage of records falling tonight, as Davila and WR ROD WINDSOR combined to break or tie four AFL and two team records. The former Rattler great Bonner was on hand to witness his apparent heir as the Rattlers’ next great quarterback broke the Rattlers’ single season passing yards record of 4,036 yards and tied the single season passing touchdowns record of 88, both pre-viously held by Bonner,. Davila was not done however, cementing his status as one of the premier players in the league, breaking the AFL rookie record for touchdown passes and passing yards.

The current Rattlers’ quarterback could not have been more enthused to clinch a playoff berth for his team and honored to pass such a legend like Bonner.

“It feels great [to clinch a playoff berth]. That was our goal going into the season, to get into the playoffs.” A humbled Davila said shortly after the game, while praising the man he watched grow-ing up. “I’m honored to be even mentioned with (Bonner) in the same sentence. He’s a great arena football quarterback and he was one of the first quarterbacks I got to watch growing up.”

Windsor put on quite the performance himself, breaking the all-time AFL receptions record on his first catch of the game and finishing the game with 174. Windsor also had 136 receiving yards and eclipsed the Rattlers’ franchise record of 1,982 yards previously set by Calvin Schexnayder. Windsor broke the record on a 47-yard bomb from a beautiful throw from Davila midway through the second quarter. Windsor now has 2,067 and needs only 63 more yards to break the league’s all-time single-season receiving yards total.

With tonight’s comfortable win over Utah (1-13) and Iowa’s (6-8) loss earlier in the night to Spo-kane, the Rattlers (9-5) clinch a playoff berth and a possible showdown with the West Division lead-ing Shock or Midwest leader Chicago Rush.

The Utah offense had trouble all night thanks to a swarming defense that stopped Utah’s offense on six of the Blaze’s first seven drives. The defense was highlighted by DL ANTAJJ HAWTHORNE who forced and recovered a fumble in the end zone as time expired at the end of the first half for an unlikely touchdown. It was the second time this year that the Rattlers scored on a defensive touch-down against Utah as the first half expired.

DL ALEX GUERRERO contributed to a strong and effective pass rush all night that recorded a sack and forced Blaze quarterback Brett Elliott into many bad throws. The secondary was lead by DB TERRENCE SANDERS who made an acrobatic interception in the second quarter leading to one of Windsor’s two touchdowns on the night. Sanders added a team-high nine tackles as well.

The victory snaps a two-game losing streak in front of a friendly and raucous 10,317 screaming fans in the snake pit at US Airways center.

Rattlers’ WR TRANDON HARVEY and WR JJ MCKELVEY stepped up big, contributing to an overall superior effort against a smaller and slower Utah secondary. Harvey finished with 30 yards and two touchdown catches, while McKelvey was just as impressive with two touchdown grabs on four catches.

The Rattlers beat the Tulsa 77-76 earlier in the season on a miraculous final play with no time on the clock as Davila found Windsor for a 27-yard score to earn an improb-able win.

GAME NOTESThe Rattlers scored 34 points in the second quarter to time the team mark for most points scored in a quarter… The 20 points allowed is tied for the fewest by an opposing team since the Rattlers held Buffalo to 14 points in 2001… The offensive line hasn’t allowed a sack in seven straight games and has only allowed one sack in the past 10 games… The Rattlers forced Utah into three field goal at-tempts… WR TOD DEVOE played Jack linebacker for the first time this season and earned Spalding Highlight of the game with his vicious hit on special teams… K FABRIZIO SCACCIA went six-of-seven in extra points and now is 59-of-63 (93.4%) on the year.

GAME 15: AZ 61, TUL 51TULSA, Okla. – The playoff bound Arizona Rattlers earned another come-from-behind victory thanks to a dominating second-half defense as they dropped the Tulsa Talons for the second time this year, 61-51, in front of the Talons’ home crowd at the BOK Center.

Rookie WR ROD WINDSOR put a stamp on his remarkable record-breaking season by setting another all-time AFL record, his fourth league record this season, to become the single-season leader in receiving yards. The record-breaking play came on his game-clinching 21-yard touchdown grab in the waning min-utes of the game.

Windsor finished with four catches for 71 yards and three touchdowns after having just one catch for seven yards at halftime. The rookie has already set league records for receptions, receptions by a rookie, and receiving yards by a rookie and is now tied for receiving touchdowns by a rookie. He has also set team records for receptions, receptions by a rookie, receiving yards, receiving yards by a rookie, and is currently tied with Hunkie Cooper for most rushing touchdowns by a receiver. On the season, Windsor has a mind-blowing 178 catches for 2,138 yards and 44 receiving scores (51 total).

The Rattlers (10-5) trailed by four at the half and by 11 early in the third but stifled Tulsa’s offense most of the second half, causing four turnovers and forcing the Talons (9-6) quarterback Justin Allgood into hur-ried, difficult throws. The defense was led by LB KELVIN MORRIS who made an acrobatic interception on Tulsa’s final drive and recovered a third-quarter fumble in the end-zone for his first touchdown as a Rattler to give the team its first lead since early in the second quarter. LB JOHNIE KIRTON recovered a fumble for the defense and scored his third rushing touchdown of the season as well.

The defense, which allowed an average of 65.2 points a game in the team’s first five games, has averaged an incredible 49.3 points a game over the last 11 contests.

WR JJ MCKELVEY had a monster game as Tulsa’s defense keyed in on Windsor. McKelvey had 14 catches for 127 yards and three touchdowns and made one big catch after another, including a few on key third-downs and even one a crucial fourth-down play.

QB NICK DAVILA had another solid game throwing for 296 yards on 25-of-36 passing (69.4%) and seven touchdowns. His first scoring strike, a fourth-down rocket to McKelvey, sent him past Rattlers legend Sher-drick Bonner for most passing touchdowns in team history. Davila has now passed for 4,497 yards and 95 touchdowns.

With the win, the Rattlers have won double-digit games for the first time since going 11-5 in 2005. While the team has clinched a playoff berth, the only certainty is that the first round game will be on the road against Chicago, Milwaukee, or Spokane. With a win next week against the Iowa Barnstormers (6-10), the Rattlers will clinch the third seed in the National Conference and will face the Midwest Division winner (Chi-cago or Milwaukee). The three seed would leave the door open for Arizona to host the Conference Finals game and possibly even the Arena Bowl on August 20th.

Join the Rattlers next week as they return home triumphant to face the Barnstormers at US Airways Center, where they are 5-2 on the year.

GAME NOTESThe Rattlers stingy defense has allowed eight or fewer points in the fourth quarter in five of the past six games… QB BILLY FARRIS made some nifty moves and converted a 2-point conversion after a bad snap on the extra point… The offensive line tandem of KYLE YOUNG, ATLAS HERRION, DEVIN CLARK and FB JOHN BOOKER continued to shine against one of the best pass rushes in the league and did not allow a sack for the eighth straight games… The offensive line has allowed just one sack in the team’s last 11 games… The offense scored over 60 points for the first time in four weeks… Kirton, in his first week back from the IR, made a tremendous 22-yard catch and run, bowling over multiple Tulsa players and making a few impres-sive jukes… The Rattlers are now 2-0 all-time against the Tulsa Talons.

GAME 16: IA 67, AZ 47PHOENIX – The Arizona Rattlers lost to the Iowa Barnstormers 67-47 in the final regular season game to give the team the #4 seed in the National Conference heading into next weekend’s playoffs.

A raucous crowd of 10,420 at the US Airways Center witnessed the Rattlers finish with a 10-6 record, the team’s best since going 11-5 on their way to an American Conference Champi-onship in 2005. Next week the Rattlers will travel to Spokane to face the top-seed Shock on Friday night in the first round of the playoffs.

WR ROD WINDSOR continued his record breaking rookie season with just over seven minutes remaining in the first quarter, as he hauled in a 32-yard touchdown pass from QB NICK DA-VILA for his 45th receiving touchdown of the season. This first score, which put the Rattlers up 14-13, broke the AFL rookie record for touchdown receptions in a single season. Then with just over seven minutes remaining until half-time, Windsor caught a 42-yard touchdown pass to break the Arizona Rattlers single season touchdown mark. Windsor finished the game with 15 catches for 234 yards and three scores. Windsor set AFL all-time records for receptions and receiving yards in a season over the previous two weeks, and finished with a remarkable 193 catches for 2,372 yards on the season. His final totals are not only league records, but both are also the most in professional football history.

Davila finished 27-of-37 for 361 yards and seven touchdowns, three each going to Windsor and WR JJ MCKELVEY. On the season, Davila finished with 4,858 yards and 102 touchdowns and a completion percentage of 67.3%, all three of which are Rattler and AFL rookie records.

The Rattlers had a chance to make another improbable comeback and take the lead in the fourth quarter after LB KELVIN MORRIS intercepted Iowa quarterback Ryan Vena with 2:45 remaining in the third quarter and Arizona trailing 36-34. Unfortunately K FABRIZIO SCAC-CIA field goal attempt was blocked and the Barnstormers scored on the very next play to go ahead 43-34 to stop a six game losing streak against Arizona.

“We had a chance with a chip shot field goal and we just got blown up on the line of scrim-mage,” said Arizona Head Coach Kevin Guy. “We got pushed back all the way to the kicker, and we never recovered after that. We’re going to go back and work on it, and we’ve got to get ready for Spokane.”

This will be the third time this season the Rattlers have squared off with the 13-3 Shock with the Shock defeating the Rattlers both times, first with a 63-56 win at US Airways Center on May 7th and then with a 37-36 victory in Spokane on July 2nd.

GAME NOTESThe Rattlers 22 sacks are the most in team history, breaking the previous record of 18 set in 2005… The Rattlers offense was the most prolific in team history, finishing with a record 5,179 total yards as well as a record 955 total points… Kelvin Morris’ interception in the third quarter was his team leading sixth on the season… The offensive line’s streak of eight straight games without allowing a sack came to an end with a late fourth quarter sack…The line has still only given up two sacks over the past 12 games.

PLAYOFFS: SPO 57, AZ 49SPOKANE, Wash. – For the 2010 Arizona Rattlers, neither the greatest individual single-season perfor-mance in Arena Football history nor the greatest rookie quarterback ever could lead the Rattlers to a third Arena Bowl championship as they fell 57-49 in the first round of the playoffs to the top-seed Spokane Shock at the Spokane Veterans Memorial Arena on Friday night.

The Shock (14-3) accomplished one of the toughest feats in football, beating the Rattlers (10-7) in all three contests between the two teams this season. Early in the game, the Rattlers seemed to be the better team, forcing three big fourth downs, coming within inches of two onside kick recoveries, and nearly making a couple key interceptions. Unfortunately for the Rattlers, the ball seemed to bounce in Spokane’s favor each time as the Shock took a 10-point lead into the half that they would never relinquish as they advanced to the National Conference Finals for the first time in team history.

Record-breaking rookie WR ROD WINDSOR continued his onslaught of the record books, making 15 catch-es for 210 yards and five touchdowns to break the team record for receptions in a playoff game and tying the team mark for touchdown receptions in a game. Windsor fell just three catches and 30 yards short of setting the league mark in those categories for a single playoff game as well.

The Rattlers trailed most of the game, but had a golden opportunity to come back late in the fourth quarter. After Windsor scored his third touchdown of the final frame to bring the Rattlers to within eight points, DL ALEX GUERRERO made a monster sack on a trick play causing the Shock to fumble the ball which DL ANT-TAJ HAWTHORNE recovered down the field. Momentum seemed to immediately shift back to the Rattlers as an eerie silence fell over the sellout crowd of 8,236.

However, the offense could not capitalize as QB NICK DAVILA’s fourth-down pass to Windsor fell incom-plete. The Shock offense took the ball and ran the final seconds off the clock to advance to the next round. Davila finished the night 25-of-43 for 315 yards and six touchdowns and ran one in for a score as well.

Despite the loss, this season has to be considered one of the greatest in team history.

Windsor alone set 10 team and league records while Davila posted nine team and league marks of his own. The team finished among the league leaders in attendance, bringing back the raucous Snake-Pit which struck fear into the hearts of opposing teams for so many years. The offense finished as the best in team history, breaking the Rattler record for most points and yards in a season, while the defense put its own stamp on the 2010 season by setting the team mark with 20 sacks.

Throughout the year, the team seemed to keep everyone on the edge of their seats with one last second finish after another. In all, the team played in five games decided by one point and a total of eight games decided by five points or less. Who can forget Davila’s incredible 27-yard miracle to Rod Windsor with no time left to give the Rattlers a one-point win over Tulsa in Week 4 at the US Airways Center.

Despite all of the broken records and exciting finishes, the most touching and memorable moment came on July 16th as the Rattlers retired the jersey of legendary quarterback Sherdrick Bonner. Bonner, widely considered the greatest quarterback in league history, passed for a career total of 42,246 yards, 855 touchdowns, and won two Arena Bowls for the Rattlers, the first two professional championships ever in the State of Arizona.

The 2010 Arizona Rattlers would like to thank you for all your support during this remarkable season and hope to see you all back again next year as the 2011 Rattlers make another push for a third Arena Bowl title.

GAME NOTESWR JJ MCKELVY finished with five catches for 56 yards on the night… DB TERRANCE SANDERS, who led the team in tackles on the year with 93, finished a team-high eight on the night to go along with a pass breakup… The Shock converted 2-of-3 fourth down conversions in the first half, two of which came on their first drive.

AFL COMMISSIONER

tensive growth in small-to-mid sized markets, building an extremely dedicated fan base across the country. That foundation helped to fuel the return of the Arena Football League in 2010 after a year on hiatus due to financial instability. Kurz and a group of enthusias-tic investors arranged the acquisition of the AFL’s assets in bankruptcy court in late 2009 and revived the league in early 2010, fulfilling the promise that arena football would be played in 2010.

Kurz has also served as the AFL’s Vice President of International Development, where he was in charge of the League’s international exposure. During his tenure, he was respon-sible for administering the H3 Visa program, allowing international players to play for AFL teams stateside. He also arranged and executed all internationally played games for the Arena Football League.

Arena Football isn’t Kurz’s only claim to fame. He is also a founding member of Gridiron Enterprises, Inc., a sports consulting firm based out of Chicago. Gridiron Enterprises, consisting of Kurz, Foster and attorney William Niro, is the original founder of the AFL. Kurz has been a player, a coach, a general manager and an owner during his lifelong in-volvement with the game of football. He is also a member of four football Hall of Fames, including membership in the first class of the Arena Football Hall of Fame as well as mem-bership in the arenafootball2 Hall of Fame.

Kurz attended the University of Oklahoma as an undergraduate and later earned his Juris Doctor Degree at Northern Illinois. Kurz is a licensed attorney in Illinois and operated a law firm with his wife, Kathryn Hall, for 20 years. Jerry and his wife, Kathryn, have one son named Matthew who is currently a football coach at Lake Forest College.

JERRY B. KURZCOMMISSIONER

Jerry B. Kurz returns for his second season as the AFL’s Commissioner. Commissioner Kurz has been involved with Arena Football for the past 25 years, including five seasons as president with arenafootball2 (af2). Out-tenured only by the creator of Arena Football, Jim Foster, Kurz has dedicated his life to furthering the sport with a strong business ethic and core values meant to bring the highest quality product to the ever-growing fan base of arena football fans.

In his time as the president of the af2, the league saw ex-

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. Former Milwaukee Mustangs kicker Kenny Stucker is the last man to have connected on a two-point dropkick (1997).

FANS – More than 22 million fans have experienced an AFL game in the League’s 21-Year History. Last year, in 2007, the AFL drew a record 1,887,054 fans in the regular season, and including the postseason, more than 2 million fans attended games for the first time in League history.

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 for-ward 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 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, mea-suring four 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.

Each team may maintain a maximum 21-player roster and 3-play-er practice squad during the regular season. Every club may dress a maximum of 21 players for each game. Teams may have a gameday inactive list with a maximum of three players. In a documented emergency, a team may add an emergency kicker to their roster, no later than one hour before kickoff.

TRADESThe trading period began on the Monday following ArenaBowl XXIII—and will end at 5 p.m. CST on Sunday, May 15, 2010. 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 LISTSThe reserve list of each team consists of the following categories; retired, refused to report, left squad, injured reserve, injured ex-empt, team suspended, league suspended, other league exempt and physically unable to perform.

INJURED RESERVEA player who is placed on injured reserve list must remain on in-jured 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.
