Tournament |
August 13-14, 2005
Fuller Park
The 2005 Kick Off Classic in St. Petersburg was won
by perennial powerhouse Rusty Anchor, of St. Petersburg.
The tournament featured a 31-team field and was loaded with
highly regarded and top-ranked teams.
The big story in this year’s Kick-Off Classic was the upset
of defending state champions, and top-ranked Horsemen, of
Orlando, in the third round by an unranked St. Petersburg
team, the Rough Riders. The Rough Riders went on to defeat
fourth-seeded Apocalypse, of Pompano Beach, before falling
to Rusty Anchor.
The Rough Riders are quarterbacked by Mike Ceravalo, from
New Orleans. He spent the last couple years in St.
Petersburg putting the team together, and is now back in New
Orleans. Mike will be flying in for future state
ranking tournaments. The other semifinalist was Raw
Vera Express (Riviera Beach).The B
Division was won by the Horsemen. They got by the
Bodysnatchers, of St. Petersburg, for the division title.
The Horsemen squeezed out a one point victory over
third-seeded Coalition, of St. Petersburg, to reach the
finals. The other semifinalist in the B Division was
the Palm Beach Knights.
Hope Health and Wellness, of Boca
Raton, won the C Division with a 10-point victory over
Miami’s Most Wanted.
The C Consolation Division was won by
Palm Beach Blaze who beat Speeler, another St.
Petersburg team.
Most Valuable Players for the
tournament both came from the Rusty Anchor team.
Offensive MVP went Malawi Hills for his consistent play and
clutch performance. Defensive MVP went to Charles
DeTorres for his tenacious defensive approach and his
confident attitude that spurred his team to victory.

Bay State Ranking Tournament |
August 27-28
Liberty Park, Palm Bay
Apocalypse, a merger of two top-five teams from the 2004
Sunshine State Games Flag Football Series, Alpha Omega and
Zimmer Alliance, defeated the reigning state champion
Horsemen 35-12 to win the Palm Bay State Ranking Tournament.
 Apocalypse scored early and often with 22 points by
halftime in each of their four wins. "Our offense was
hitting on all cylinders and our defense played very well,"
said Coach Craig Miller, whose team outscored opponents
135-52.
The two-system quarterback of Brian Baer and Rob Armstrong,
executed flawlessly over the weekend with no interceptions
while distributing passes all over the field. Derrick
Brown and Steve Davis each caught four touchdowns while Mike
McCullum and Scott Breezeback each caught three TDs.
Davis totaled 14 points McCullum had two interceptions in
the championship over the Horsemen.
The merger of the two Pompano Beach teams (4th-ranked
Alpha Omega and 5th-ranked Zimmer Alliance in 2004) took
place in the off-season, according to Miller. "We
played in the same league and were all neighbors so it made
a lot of sense."
After being eliminated in the semi-final round of the St.
Petersburg SRT, Apocalypse now has a 7-1 overall record in
the 2005 season.

Ranking Tournament |
September 10-11
G. T. Bray Park
Apocalypse won its
second consecutive tournament defeating the 2004 State
Champions, the Horsemen, for the second time this year,
34-24, to win the Manateee County SRT. The win
propelled Apocalypse from third in the State Rankings to
number one.
To secure the win, Apocalypse roared out to a 34-6 third
quarter lead. To their credit, the Horsemen never gave
up and fought back, scoring 18 unanswered points in the
third and fourth quarters.
Apocalypse averaged 33 points a game while outscoring
opponents 131-37. The Apocalypse defense was at is best,
shutting out Hope Health & Wellness 38-0 in the
quarterfinals, and defeating the Rough Riders 32-6 in
the semifinals.
Quarterbacks Rob Armstrong and Brian Baer were virtually
unstoppable throughout the tournament, throwing and
running for over 20 touchdowns combined. The duo
produced points on virtually every drive.
"Keep in mind that every game was stopped early due to
the runaway scores. They could’ve scored more," said
Apocalypse head coach Craig Miller. "Rob is a
strong-armed pocket passer, but can also run.
Brian is an elusive, scrambling-type QB. Both are
very effective, depending on the defense used against
them."
Derrick
Brown, Quinton McClendon, Mike McCullum and Joe Cajigas
also turned in top performances.
For the second time in two weeks, Mike McCullum had an
interception on Horsemen’s first drive – this time
returning it for a TD. Quinton McClendon
contributed with a crucial interception in the win over
the Horsemen.
defeated Coalition 38-21 to win the B
Division. Domino's defeated Citadel/American Bank
32-28 to win the C Division.

September 24-25
Ocala Regional Sports Complex
Ocala SRT
features down to the wire games
In a
tournament where half of the games played were decided by a
touchdown or less, Coalition, of Seminole, defeated A-1
Metalcraft/USA Fence 13-0 in the A Division Championship
Game of the Ocala State Ranking Tournament the weekend of
September 24-25.
Of the 28 games played over the weekend 14 were decided by a
touchdown or less and nine games were decided by three
points or less. It’s a telltale sign the Sunshine State
Games Adult Flag Football Series is becoming more
competitive as the State Championship draws near, November
12-13 in Davie.
“In the past there were four or five teams you could count
on to be there competing for the state championship,” said
Tony Walton, one of the Coalition team founders and
nine-year veteran. “This year there’s eight to 10 teams
that could compete for the championship. You’d better be
playing your best every weekend.”
Coalition, which previously competed in the Sunshine State
Games Adult Flag Football Series as Mugs and Jugs, entered
the tournament ranked 11th and defeated
third-ranked Rusty Anchor 27-24 in the quarterfinals. The
Coalition defense was the star of the weekend, allowing only
six points in the final two games with a 13-6 win in the
semifinal round over ParLaid and the shutout win over
seventh-ranked A-1 Metalcraft/USA Fence in the championship
game.
“Most people who compete in the Sunshine State Games Flag
Football tournaments would agree we have one of the best
defenses,” said Walton, Coalition’s middle linebacker and
defensive captain. “We stopped Rusty Anchor twice in the
fourth quarter to win that game.”
The tournament MVP for Coalition was defensive rusher Mike
Malone, substituting for Tom Knapp, who was out with an
ankle injury. “Not only did he have a good defensive
tournament, but he caught a few touchdown passes as well,”
said Walton.After
the loss to Coalition, Rusty Anchor advanced through the B
Division and defeated Help-U-Sell/Elvis Lives 34-33 in the
Championship Game.

Bamford Park, Davie, Florida
November 12-13, 2005
Largo’s Rusty Anchor scored its fourth Sunshine State
Games Flag Football Championship in six years by defeating
Coalition, of St. Petersburg, 20-19 in a winner take all
final of the A Division at Bamford Park in Davie.
Down 19-12, Malawi Hills outjumped a
Coalition defender and came down with a touchdown pass with
:02 remaining. Rusty Anchor made the decision to go for the
win with a two-point conversion and halfback Sean Mitten’s
pass to Dwayne Fuller connected to secure the win. Mitten
also threw the TD pass to Hills. It was the third game
between Rusty Anchor and Coalition in a span of six hours on
the tournament’s final day.
Rusty Anchor defeated Coalition 34-18
in Sunday’s 10:10 a.m. game, dropping them into the loser’s
bracket. After defeating top-ranked Apocalypse, 38-22,
Coalition lined up against Rusty Anchor at 1:40 p.m. and won
27-6 forcing a final game at 2:50 p.m.
“Everything just fell into place for us
in the Championship Tournament,” said Rusty Anchor coach and
slot receiver Art Collins. “Certain teams won and certain
teams lost and everything worked out for us.”
Rusty Anchor won the 2000-2002 Sunshine
State Games Flag Football Championship Tournaments and was
one game away from playing for the 2004 State Championship.
“The majority of the team is still the same,” said Collins.
“It’s basically the same nucleus that won three
championships in a row.”
All three divisions
featured final winner take all games, where teams faced each
three times on Sunday, as the Bodysnatchers defeated Parker
Packaging out of the losers bracket 38-14 in a final game
after dropping a 21-20 contest. TCB, of Merritt Island,
defeated SL-QMI twice by scores of 20-12 and 24-15 after
losing a 21-20 nail-biter, which dropped them into the
loser’s bracket.A Division
