LAS VEGAS (AFLWA) – In a unanimous decision among board members of the Arena Football League Writers Association, Dallas' Clint Dolezel and New Orleans' Steve Bellisari were named Co-Players of the Week for Week 15, after the two quarterbacks became the first duo in AFL history to each account for 11 touchdowns in a game.

In a back-and-forth battle that was tied at the end of each of the first three quarters, Bellisari hit Wendall Williams as time expired to get the VooDoo within 80-79. Instead of going for the extra point that would have sent the game into overtime, Coach Mike Neu decided to go for two and the win.

Bellisari was sacked by Colston Weatherington, and the Desperados hung on to keep a one-game lead over Georgia in the race for the top seed in the National Conference.

Dolezel tied a league record by throwing 11 touchdown passes, and he was 33-of-41 for 386 yards. Bellisari was 33-of-46 for 418 yards with nine passing touchdowns and two rushing scores.

The association will name an AFL Player of the Week each week throughout the 2007 season. The AFLWA has presented this weekly award since its inception during the 2004 season.
