Former SSFL Great, Rashod Moulton, Signs with NFL'S Jacksonville Jaguars

Story Line: Rashod Moulton, former SSFL standout for the St. Petersburg Sharks and member of the SSFL Hall of Fame Class of 2008, recently signed with the Jacksonville Jaguars of the NFL. Sharks owner and SSFL Hall of Famer, Derrick Pollock, was instrumental in guiding Rashod to Fort Valley State where he played offense, defense and on special teams. His versatility earned him honors as a concensus All Conference, All American and All Region selection as a defensive back and kick returner. Rashod signed as a CB being promoted from the Jag's practice squad.
Rashod was the MVP of the 2002 SSFL Championship Rice Bowl and resides in St. Petersburg.
CONGRATULATIONS RASHOD & THE SHARKS ORGANIZATION

SSFL Official Receives NCAA Position

Dr. Aaron West, SSFL Official Advances to the NCAA
Story Line: Dr. Aaron West, a premier SSFL Hall of Fame official has been hired as an NCAA official. The SSFL wishes him continued success. Not one to forget his roots, Dr. West stated, "In all truth, some of my SSFL officiating collegues and I talk about what an opportunity the SSFL is. By working additional games in the SSFL using seven man mechanics, we gain literally one to two years edge over others who do not work SSFL each season we serve. I am convinced that I would not have progressed as far as I am right now without the structure the SSFL provides or the opportunity that John Walters (SSFL Superviosr of Officials) has given me."

Who Will Be Next?

Farizzio Scaccia Or ?????
Story Line: Fabrizzio Scaccia, the multi talented place kicker of the Fire has been brought to the attention of the NFL by Commissioner Rice. Said Rice, " Minor League Football is not easy to advance to the NFL. Competing with the talented college players "coming out" and available every year is near impossible. It all begins is with personal contact with those individuals associated with the NFL who evaluate the recommendation as credible. It's not just talent. Other factors such as age, character and desire are factored in. Fabrizzio is a player who has demonstrated particular talent at his position and has an excellent opportunity for a good look and evaluation. We have been in contact with our associates in Sports Management in New York in conjunction with former NFL great, Chuck Muncie in California, who is involved in new talent. On going communications continue and now that the NFL draft is completed, the next step will be undertaken shortly. Good luck to Fabrizzio".
