The selections for this year were pretty easy. Salem led his team to a 10-0 regular season record and then went on to march toward another Championship berth with a 4-1 post-season record. He earned his 3rd straight All-Star nod. Was a 3-time game MVP and earned player of the week. This MVP title sets him apart from every other player in history, nobody has come close to winning twice.
"It has been all about team this year. I am of course extremely happy and humbled to get this honor, but I would argue you could give this to anyone on our team. One person cannot go undefeated in this tough league." - Salem #25 Interceptors
Sebastian crashed into every household in America shattering the Combine points record and coming out the hottest rookie prospect ever. Now the pressure was on to deliver. He had a quiet but consistent year making a great 87.5% of his throws, tied with Salem for 4th best in the league. Sharing impact with Sean of course, he helped the Diamonds to their 1st division title in 7 seasons. He really came out as the clear Rookie MVP with 2 commanding victories over the Dragonfish in the divisional round. He kinda took a step back against the Cat's, but still, on par with the year Semere had a few years back.
"I have felt the burden coming up all these years and entering the league. I strive to be the best, so this is a nice boost to that goal, to keep pushing." - Sebastian #3 Diamonds
Catch Salem and the Interceptors try for their first title against the Cat's in the 2011 DBL Championsihp.
