Beckett.com AFL Collectible Player of the Week
April 11, 2006 - Arena Football League (1987-2008) (AFL I) News Release
In an otherworldly performance against former head coach Danny White, the Rattlers' Randy Gatewood caught 13 passes for 149 yards and a career-high seven touchdowns Friday night as Arizona defeated the Utah Blaze on Friday night, 64-52. Gatewood also pitched in with three tackles on defense to round out a simply spectacular evening.
In addition to helping his team remain in first place in the American Conference's Western Division, Gatewood's heroics also sent White's expansion Blaze team to the bottom of the division.
For his prolific performance, Gatewood has been honored as Beckett.com's AFL Collectible Player of the Week for Week 11.
To understand Gatewood's vital importance to the Rattlers, look no farther than the team statistics. Gatewood leads Arizona in receptions (54), receiving yards (705), touchdowns (21), tackles (44) and interceptions (three), and he's in contention for the AFL's prestigious U.S. Army Ironman of the Year Award.
