Warriors dominate 2013 All-MFL Team - KUAM.com-KUAM News: On Air. Online. On Demand.

Guam - Just as they have all season long in the 2013 Miller Football League, the Pepsi Warriors thoroughly dominated this year's All-MFL Team. Quarterback Danny Manibusan was selected as this year's Offensive MVP, with teammate Stephen "Juice" Santos clearly the Defensive MVP. Both played brilliantly in helping their team finish the regular season undefeated at 6-0.

And fitting of a team that's played lights-out defense since the very first snap six weeks ago and went ten straight quarters without giving up a single point, the all-star squad was chock-full of defensive stars. The entire secondary made the cut, as well as several linebackers and linemen. 

The Warriors also had three players make the All-MFL Team at multiple positions - Craig Goldsmith has been a rock solid fullback at defensive lineman, first-time Warrior Chris Santos was a lock at safety and also at placekicker, and Juice made plays at linebacker and kick returner. In all, the Warriors had 23 selections.

The IP&E Hal's Angels, who are in second place heading into this weekend's playoffs, had 14 selections including standout rookie Rosevelt "Majik" Badgett at utility and the dynamic Steve Phillps at quarterback. The Cars Plus Rams, the defending champions, had 8 players All-MFL Team selections, and the Chili's Falcons had two picks - dazzling speedster Tom Meddler and hard-hitting Luis Rivera on defense.
