CHICAGO - The Dallas Desperados began filling their roster for the 2002 season by selecting offensive/defensive lineman RAMANDO STALLINGS (6- 7, 260, San Diego St.) from the roster of the Los Angeles Avengers with the top pick today in the 2002 Arena Football League Expansion Draft. The Desperados, who begin play this upcoming season, selected nine players from the 105 made available from the rosters of the league's 15 remaining teams.
Stallings started along the defensive line for the Los Angeles Xtreme in the XFL during their first and only season after spending the 2000 season with the Edmonton Eskimos and BC Lions of the Canadian Football League. Between 1994-98, he played 38 games in the NFL with the Cincinnati Bengals after being drafted by the Bengals in the seventh round of the 1994 NFL Draft.
Team rosters hit hardest by the draft include defending champion Grand Rapids Rampage and the Indiana Firebirds, who lost four and three players respectively. Grand Rapids losses included defensive specialist Hassan Shamsid-Deen (5-9, 183, NC State), who won the 2001 ArenaBowl title with the Rampage. Shamsid-Deen has spent the past three seasons with the Rampage, totaling 78 tackles, 29 passes defensed and four interceptions. Indiana's losses included wide receiver/defensive back Lamar Grant (5-10, 185, Duke), who totaled 40 tackles in 10 games in 2001.
Teams will have another opportunity to add players during next week's Dispersal Draft. The draft will be held on Monday, December 10 at 1 p.m. ET.
The Arena Football League will field 16 teams for its 16th season in 2002. The expansion Dallas Desperados, owned by Dallas Cowboys' Jerry Jones, will be joined by Atlanta as new AFL markets for the 2002 season. Teams preparing to begin play over the next several seasons include Denver, Jacksonville, Nashville, New Orleans, Philadelphia, San Francisco, and Washington.
INDEPENDENCE, Missouri - Missouri Mavericks' President and General Manager Brent Thiessen announced Thursday the Central Hockey League (CHL) club has signed two rookie defensemen to the Mavericks' pre-season roster. Brad Good and Joshua Hepditch have each accepted offers to play for the Mavericks.
"We are anxious to get these two players to camp and watch them play," said Thiessen. "We believe they will add to our defensive strengths. Scott has done a great job recruiting these guys and we believe they will contribute nicely."
Good, 25 (3/10/86), begins his rookie season with the Mavericks after playing the previous four seasons at Carleton University. The Kitchener, Ontario native finished his collegiate career with seven goals and 27 assists in 100 games played. After his senior season, the 6-foot-2, 200-pound defenseman played in six games with the Florida Everblades of the ECHL where he accounted for one assist in six games during the regular season and two goals in three playoff games with the Everblades. Prior to playing college hockey, Good played four seasons in the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) for the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds where he finished with 398 penalty minutes and 30 points (3-2730) in 249 games.
"Brad Good is a big strong defenseman who brings excellent leadership qualities to our hockey club," remarked Mavericks' Head Coach Scott Hillman. "He plays a similar style as Mike Wakita who had an excellent rookie season with us last year. Brad will help us strengthen our blue line with his dependable, stay-at-home style of play."
Hepditch, 26 (1/1/85), joined the Mavericks as an amateur during the Mavericks' playoff run last season. He did not compete in a playoff game for Missouri, but was asked to come back and play for the Mavericks for his rookie season. The 5-foot-10, 180-pound defenseman played his previous five seasons at the University of New Brunswick and had his best season in his final year. He finished with 10 points (2-810) in 20 games played during the 2010-11 season and with 25 points (6-1925) in 110 games played over his career. Prior to playing at New Brunswick, the Fredericton, New Brunswick native played in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL) for the Moncton Wildcats where he accounted for 16 goals, 48 assists and 306 penalty minutes over four seasons.
"Josh is a heart and soul type of player. He plays above his size, and has always earned the respect of his teammates and former coaches," said Hillman. "Josh brings a resume complete with three national titles in his five year career in Canadian university hockey. That type of winning experience is very hard to find. We look for Josh to bring a lot of skill and mobility to our back end, but he also has the versatility to play up front as a forward if there is a need. "
Mavericks' President and General Manager Brent Thiessen also announced the Mavericks were unable to come to terms with Sean Muncy, Clayton Barthel and Brennan Barker. Missouri no longer retains the rights to the three players; therefore they have become free agents effective immediately.
The Mavericks will host a press conference tomorrow, Friday, August 5th at 2 p.m. at Independence Events Center. Missouri will announce the team's latest player signing, new business items and introduce the new Assistant Director of Hockey Operations.
SAN JOSE - San Jose Stealth Managing Director, General Manager and Head Coach Johnny Mouradian announced today the acquisition of forward Cam Sedgwick from Arizona in exchange for defenseman Darryl Gibson. There is also a conditional exchange of draft selections that accompanies the trade.
Last season for the Vancouver Ravens, Sedgwick posted 22 points (9 goals and 13 assists) in nine games. The six-foot, 190-pound Vancouver, British Columbia native is entering his fourth season in the National Lacrosse League. In 25 career games, Sedgwick has scored 71 points (25 goals and 46 assists).
In exchange for Sedgwick, San Jose gave up Gibson, who was acquired from Toronto in a trade on July 27, 2004. Gibson played in both of San Jose's games this season, registering one point and three loose balls.
Sedgwick works in the computer industry in Silicon Valley at a company named Business Objects. This trade is a win-win situation all the way around for him.
"I think we can do some real damage in this League with the team we have here," said Sedgwick. "It works out both for playing and working, so I'm excited to meet my new team and get things rolling."
In his first game with San Jose, Sedgwick will be playing his old team, as the Stealth travel to Arizona to take on the Sting, Friday Jan, 21 at 6:30 (PST). The following night, the team returns to HP Pavilion at San Jose to play host to the Minnesota Swarm. Tickets are still available at all ticketmaster locations, ticketmaster.com, by calling 408-999-5700 or at the HP Pavilion box office.
