KEVIN GUY
General Manager/
Head Coach
Kevin Guy begins his 11th season coaching in Arena Football, his seventh as a Head Coach and his third in that position 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 Rattlers 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 organization, 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.
10www.azrattlers.com
KEVIN GUY
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 Conference 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 SaberCats 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 National 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 Director 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
www.azrattlers.com11
KEVIN GUY
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 turnovers 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 remaining 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) primarily 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 56
CLEVELAND – 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 Cleveland 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 TERRANCE 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 interception 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 connected 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 56
PHOENIX – 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 Rattlers 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 interception, 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, running 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 Talons in the teams’ first-ever meeting. Kickoff is slated for 7:30pm

GAME 03: AZ 77, TUL 76
PHOENIX - 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 touchdown 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 currently 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 61
TAMPA - The Arizona Rattlers fell short in their quest for another dramatic come-from-behind victory 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 doubledigit 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 record 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 27of-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 56
PHOENIX - 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. Davila, playing in his first game against his former team for which he won an af2 championship 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 receptions on the year. His 157 receiving yards now make it his 5th consecutive 100+ yard receiving 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 breakup; 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 NOTES
FB 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 48
DES 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 Barnstormers 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 DARRELL 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 penalty. 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 passes 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 continued 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.

The Rattlers face off against long-time division rival Utah on the road next Friday. The Blaze sit
in third in the West Division at 1-4 and the Rattlers are just one game behind division-leading
Spokane. The Rattlers are 5-2 all-time against the Blaze, splitting the season series in 2008.
GAME NOTES
Windsor, who played quarterback his entire life until switching to receiver his senior year of
college, completed his first pass of the season on a trick play, a nine-yard pass to JJ McKelvey… The Rattlers used the rushing attack to their advantage, scoring twice and getting a
key 2-point conversion on the ground from FB JOHNIE KIRTON… Sanders’ Kickoff return for a
touchdown was his second on the season, giving the Rattlers three overall (Harvey)… DB RILEY SWANSON led the team in tackles for the second time this season… The Rattlers offensive
line didn’t allow a sack for the second straight game… The Rattlers offense didn’t turn the ball
over for the second straight game.

GAME 07: AZ 83, UT 58
WEST 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 meaningless score with under a minute to play. Utah’s defense scored 21 of the team’s points as DL Caesar 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 touchdown 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 execution except for the three turnovers.”
The rookie Windsor was also back in top form after a merely human performance last week, hauling 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 NOTES
The 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 67
PHOENIX – 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 interception 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 accounted 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.

The Rattlers next take on the Oklahoma City Yard Dawgz at US Airways Center Friday,
June 11th in the second of three straight home games. This will be the first ever meeting
between the two teams. Kickoff is scheduled for 7:30 pm.
GAME NOTES
The Rattlers dominated time of possession, controlling the ball for 53:48 compared to Milwaukee’s 24:57… The Rattlers drew a season-high 14 Iron penalties for 98 yards… Davila’s
420 yards passing was his second 400-yard game of the season… Davila is now second
behind Greisen averaging 333.7 passing yards per game… DB RILEY SWANSON collected
his team-leading fourth interception on the year… The Rattlers missed two 2-point conversions before the game-winner in overtime… DL ALEX GUERRERO had one tackle for loss
that led to a fumble.

GAME 09: AZ 56, OKC 55
PHOENIX - 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 earlier 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 touchdown 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 swatting 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 receptions mark to 113. He finished the night with 12 receptions for 147 yards and two touchdowns. 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 50
PHOENIX - 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 BossierShreveport 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 WINDSOR, 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 season-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 effort 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 touchdowns 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),

the West Division-leading Spokane Shock (8-2), and the Midwest Division-leading Chicago Rush
(8-3).
“We’re going to take it one game at a time,” said a confident, but humble Guy, “We are going to
Jacksonville and we have to get ready to play a big game.”
GAME NOTES
JJ McKelvey recovered a fumble on a kickoff and caught a touchdown pass on the next play from
scrimmage… McKelvey has had a touchdown reception in every game he has played this season…
Alex Guerrero had a tackle for loss, two pass breakups, and a forced fumble… Brandon Freeman
lead the team with nine tackles… The Rattlers had a chance to set the all-time single-game mark for
most points in a game (83, multiple times), but the coaching staff chose to run the clock out and
not run up the score on Bossier City… Windsor needs only 78 yards to set the AFL all-time rookie
record for receiving yards.

GAME 11: AZ 66, JAX 50
JACKSONVILLE, 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 impressive 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 attempts, 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 touchdowns (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 touchdowns, and is on pace to shatter the league records for both receptions and yards receiving.
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 ensuing 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.
88www.azrattlers.com
11: AZ @ JAX RECAP
DL 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 onegame in the division, but also hold the best record in the entire league. Earlier in the season, 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 NOTES
Hawthorne’s sack was his second in as many games and fourth on the season… Farris
threw two touchdown passes for the second straight game and now has six touchdown
passes and no interceptions on the season… Scaccia has now made 43-of-46 extra points
for a percentage of 93.5%, second all-time among Rattler kickers… FB JOHN BOOKER
scored on a two-yard rush giving him three total touchdowns on the season (2 rush, 1 receiving)… The Rattlers six-game winning streak is the longest since they won 10 straight
in 2004… The Rattlers have scored over 60 points in seven of the team’s 10 games this
season, their most since doing it 10 times in 16 games in 2003.

GAME 12: SPO 37, AZ 36
SPOKANE 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 shootout, 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 Rattlers 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 seemingly 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 goahead 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

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 NOTES
The 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 allowing 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 50
CHICAGO – 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 nailbiting 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 offense 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 Rattlers to within five and give the team real hope. That touchdown catch was Windsor’s 166 reception 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 executed 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 touchdown 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, starting 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 NOTES
Dale 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 20
PHOENIX – 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 Bonner’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 previously 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 growing 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 singleseason receiving yards total.
With tonight’s comfortable win over Utah (1-13) and Iowa’s (6-8) loss earlier in the night to Spokane, the Rattlers (9-5) clinch a playoff berth and a possible showdown with the West Division leading 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 touchdown 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.

Up next for the Rattlers is American Conference foe Tulsa before returning home to face Iowa in the
last game of the season. 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 improbable win.
GAME NOTES
The 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 attempts… 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 51
TULSA, 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 alltime 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 minutes 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 mindblowing 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 hurried, 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 Sherdrick 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 (Chicago 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 NOTES
The 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 impressive jukes… The Rattlers are now 2-0 all-time against the Tulsa Talons.

GAME 16: IA 67, AZ 47
PHOENIX – 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 Championship 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 DAVILA 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 SCACCIA 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 scrimmage,” 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 NOTES
The 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 49
SPOKANE, Wash. – For the 2010 Arizona Rattlers, neither the greatest individual single-season performance 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 catches 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 ANTTAJ 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 incomplete. 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 NOTES
WR 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
JERRY B. KURZ
COMMISSIONER
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 extensive 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 enthusiastic 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 responsible 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 involvement 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 membership 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.

RULES OF THE GAME
FIELD
• An indoor padded surface 85 feet wide and 50 yards long with eight-yard end zones.
• Goal posts are nine feet wide with a crossbar height of 15 feet (NFL goal posts are 181/2 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 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 manufactured 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.
www.azrattlers.com163
RULES OF THE GAME
PLAYERS AND FORMATIONS (CONTINUED)
• 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 twisting.
• Offensive motion: One receiver may go in forward motion before the snap.
TIMING
• Four 15-minute quarters with a 15-minute halftime.
• The clock stops for out-of-bounds plays or incomplete passes only in the last minute
of each half and when the referee deems it necessary for penalties, injuries or timeouts.
• Each team is allowed three (3) timeouts per half.
MOVEMENT OF THE BALL AND SCORING
• Four (4) downs are allowed to advance the ball 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 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.
164www.azrattlers.com
GLOSSARY OF TERMS
BALL 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 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 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 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.
www.azrattlers.com165
MISC. 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 24 players by
5 p.m. CST on the last day of camp. The 21-man active list and
three practice players will remain in effect for the remainder of the
regular season and the playoffs, including ArenaBowl XXIV.
Each team may maintain a maximum 21-player roster and 3-player 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.
TRADES
The 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.
PLAYOFF QUALIFICATION,
SELECTION OF TEAMS
Eight 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 Wild Cards,
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, July 29-30, 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 4-5 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 XXIV on August 12th at the home venue of the
higher seeded team.
Tiebreaking Procedures
If, at the end of the regular season, two or more clubs in the same
division are tied with identical won-lost percentages, the following
steps will be taken to determine rank.
