PHILADELPHIA -The Arena
Football League announced today that Philadelphia Soul
OL Martin Bibla, OL Phil Bogle and DL Bryan Save were
named to the AFL's All-Rookie Team. Philadelphia led
all AFL teams with three players receiving the honor.
Bibla (6'3", 310, Miami)
has been the quiet lineman who has not received much
publicity. He started all 16 regular season games for
the Soul and was part of a front line that only allowed
nine sacks all season that ranked seventh in the
League. He was a big acquisition to the Blue and Grey
in an effort to build a solid offensive line. Bibla
spent five years in the NFL with the Denver Broncos and
the Atlanta Falcons before coming to the Soul.
