The Spokane Shock announced today that OL/DL Katon Bethay has been assigned to their 2007 roster by the arenafootball2 League Office.

Primarily used as a lineman, Bethay, 6'1" 295, still managed to score three touchdowns during the regular season in the eight games in which he played.

His senior season he led the team in tackles (81) including 20 tackles for a loss while recovering four fumbles.
