June 18, 2008 - United Indoor Football Association (UIF)
Billings Outlaws News Release


The United Indoor Football League has announced its 2008 League-Wide Awards. These awards were voted on by league coaches and local media (the beat writers and radio broadcasters).

The Billings Outlaws' Quarterback, Chris Dixon, has been honored by being named the "Most Valuable Player, Player of the Year, and Offensive Player of the Year." Dixon has spent the regular season crushing the league records attributing to the honor bestowed upon him. This is his second season in the UIF, in which he has completed 264 of 385 passes for 2882 yards and 63 touchdowns while only throwing 10 interceptions (and just think, post season play hasn't even started!). Dixon has set new UIF records with both the touchdowns and passing yards this regular season.

Travonti Johson, in his rookie year, has been named the "Defensive Rookie of the Year" by the United Indoor Football League. "Tuffy" lead the league in interceptions, 12 this regular season, and has returned 3 of those for touchdowns. In addition, he broke up 12 passes and forced 2 fumbles recovering both. He has also dominated the field in tackles, 62 tackles and 4 for loss, making him a force to be reckoned with because of his ability to make game changing plays.

The Billings Outlaws will host the Omaha Beef this Saturday, June 21st for the first round Playoffs. Kickoff will be at 7:00 pm at Metra Park. Contact the Metra to get your tickets early and guarantee yourself a great seat to watch your Outlaws send the Beef packing!
