Wednesday June 25, 2008
FLOWERY BRANCH, GA – The Arena Football League has announced that Georgia Force (10-6) OL Shane Grice has been named to the All-Arena Second Team for his efforts this season.
Grice, 6-2, 307 pounds, started all 16 games for the Force this season on an offensive line that allowed an AFL-low six sacks. With the protection from Grice and his fellow linemen this season, Georgia posted an AFL all-time high 5,259 total yards of offense including a league-high 4,964 passing yards. The five-year AFL veteran is a product of the University of Mississippi, where his offensive line unit allowed the fewest sacks in the SEC and the third lowest total in the nation (seven) as a senior. Grice becomes the ninth player in Force franchise history to be named to the All-Arena Second Team.
