WitP: Chang, SWA, Newberry, Bess, Nasti

Jason Kaneshiro writes that former UH QB Timmy Chang has retired from football.

The NCAA's most prolific throwing arm has tossed his last competitive pass.

Former Hawaii quarterback Tim Chang, the nation's all-time leading passer, said he's hanging it up after playing for the Winnipeg Blue Bombers and Hamilton Tiger-Cats in the Canadian Football League the past two seasons.

Chang said he's returning to UH to finish his degree and will work in the athletic department's compliance office as a student assistant.

In AIFA action, former UH QB Shawn Withy-Allen led the Fayetteville Guard to a 57-53 victory over the Reading Express, avenging a loss earlier in the season.

“We’ve never lost to the same team twice in a row in the same season,” noted Withy-Allen, who completed 20 of 29 tosses for 229 yards with six touchdowns and one interception. “That was big motivation.

“We don’t want anyone to beat us twice. We gave the game away up there. We knew it. We were looking forward to them coming down here because we knew we had something to prove.”

In AF2 action, former UH cornerback Myron Newberry had an interception and another negated by penalty as the Amarillo Dusters lost to the Boise Burn.

Here's a video from a few days ago of Davone Bess talking to the Miami press, from MiamiDolphins.com. There's a commercial that plays before the vid.
