2015-16 Arbor View Flag Football Capsule

ARBOR VIEW

Head coach: Amanda Roller, first season

2014-15 record: 11-8 (10-6 Northwest, fourth)

Returning letter winners (starters): Seven (four)

Top players: QB Taylor Howie (Sr.), WR Stacie Flores (Sr.), DL Brooke Rauh (Sr.), RB Melanie Ara (Jr.), RB/S Aelicia Taylor (Jr.), RB/TE Aira Pinpin (Jr.)

Outlook: Howie, who threw for 2,103 yards and 29 touchdowns last year, is one of the top returning passers in Southern Nevada. She's one of seven returnees for the Aggies.

Ara (1,709 rushing yards, 27 TDs), Taylor (1,265 rushing yds., 17 TDs), Pinpin (836 rushing yds., 13 TDs) and Flores (35 receptions, 452 yards, 4 TDs) give Arbor View a host of offensive weapons.

Rauh (121 tackles) should be among the leaders on defense.

"We are really excited for this season," said Roller. "As a new head coach, my goals are to continue a successful program, as well as incorporate some new plays and traditions. Our team goal is to make it further into postseason play than we have in the past."
