You don't always think of the Arena Football League as a place where players spend a career, but former UC Davis quarterback Mark Grieb would certainly qualify as a veteran. Grieb, in his 10th season in the league, has helped lead the San Jose SaberCats to a 13-3 record, 10 straight wins and the top spot in the upcoming playoffs.
Grieb tossed his 100th TD of the season Monday in San Jose's 73-46 win over the Las Vegas Gladiators. A year ago, Grieb threw for a league-record 4,841 passing yards.
The SaberCats await their opponent in the divisional playoffs July 7. Arena Bowl XXI is in New Orleans this year.
A story on Grieb will appear in the Enterprise in the coming weeks.
Oh, in case you're wondering, Grieb is not the San Jose player with the most time in the AFL. Offensive lineman Chuck Reed is an 11-year veteran.
