The only stop light in the small town of Eloy is at the railroad crossing.  The trains rumble through this southern Arizona town 24-7. 

But there's a new rumble that's being felt here on Friday nights and it comes from the football field two blocks behind the town hall.

This is where the Santa Cruz Valley Union High School Dust Devils are giving Eloy something to cheer about.

"It means a heck of a lot to this community,” said varsity football coach Al Ocampo. “It means a lot to our kids. We work very hard; our motto has been restoring the roar.”

Ocampo’s Dust Devils have only one goal in mind winning the State 3A title, which is something Eloy hasn’t seen in 16 years.

Senior Pat Cann is leading the charge. Cann has racked up over 2-thousand yards this year. He’s scored 29 touchdowns and averages nearly 11 yards every time he touches the ball.

"When I see the guy hit the ground, I see a hole, I see a linebacker, more than anything I see a linebacker there, and I say I just got to beat him,” Cann said.

 “I got to get there. It’s a big adrenaline rush, and I got to get it. I got to get the 6 points.”

Not only is the 6-foot-1, 180 pound senior the highest rated running back in Arizona, but this week he’s No. 1 in the nation.

‘I can do better, that's why I'm always trying to put myself out there like that,” Cann said.

It was his grandpa that planted the seed to making No. 30 into one of the best players Eloy has ever seen.

“One day I just walked in the room and my grandpa was watching the Denver Broncos play Green Bay Packers and he said I want you to run like Terrell Davis and he became my idol,” Cann said. “And I just always wanted to run around and do the things he did and score touchdowns.”

You can see the Dust Devil pride in front of the Eloy Town Hall where Cann’s step-dad is the mayor.

"It's very awesome to see him play, especially when he gets one of those breakaways, which he's kind of famous for at this point,” said Cann’s step-dad Byron Jackson.
