It looks as though the Arizona Rattlers have hit their
stride.

The defending National Conference champions won their
third straight game Saturday night, knocking off the New
Orleans VooDoo 69-45 in Louisiana.

The win pushed the Rattlers’ record to 8-3 on the season
and by virtue of that victory, Arizona held on to the top
spot in this week’s Arena Football Power Rankings.

In their last three wins, the Rattlers offense has been in
high gear, averaging 77.3 points per game. Quarterback
Nick Davila has thrown for 888 yards and 26 touchdowns and
only 1 interception during the win streak.

The Rattlers return home to US Airways Center to host the
Pittsburgh Power Saturday night.
