Whether it was at quarterback or running back, University head coach John Kelley was seeking versatility when he and his staff put together their backfield options for the 75th OVAC Rudy Mumley All-Star Game.

When you consider quarterback Santino Arlia along with running backs Isaac Ball, Daminn Cunningham, Adam Dolata and Cody Martos, the head coach for the West Virginia squad believes he found it.

“Arlia can really sling it, but the scouting reports from other coaches is if you can’t protect him, he can run with it, too,” Kelley said. “As for the running backs, we have a nice mix of speed, power and guys who can catch the ball out of the backfield. We have a nice blend and good blocking guys.”

Here’s a capsule look at the players:

SANTINO ARLIA, Madonna — This former Blue Don had a career to remember for Coach Dan Rovira’s team.

The 6-2, 150-pounder completed 510 of 935 passes for 6,850 yards and 85 touchdowns. He also rushed for five touchdowns.

Arlia was named Second Team All-State, First-Team All-OVAC and All-Valley as a senior. As a junior, he earned the exact same accolades. As a sophomore, he was Second-Team All-OVAC and All-Valley.

Away from football, Arlia is a member of the National Honor Society.
