Navy’s freshman quarterback was not overwhelmed by the moment during his first Army-Navy game and provided the only offense the visitors could muster on a dark, cloudy and rainy day at Michie Stadium on the campus of West Point.
Arline established a career-high by rushing for 109 yards on 17 carries but afterward was bemoaning his inability to cross the goal line on two chances.
Arline burst through a big hole on the right side then used a sharp cutback to rip off a 52-yard gain. The 5-foot-9, 165-pounder looked a little bit like former Navy quarterback Malcolm Perry on the play – flashing superb speed, quickness and change of direction ability.
