In his first season with Berlin (2005), Moa had 10 receptions for 104 yards and one special teams tackle. This past spring he contributed the third-most receptions on the team (18) for 160 yards and scored one touchdown. Moa is a product of the University of Utah (2003), and is a cousin of Jets’ defensive line Sione Pouha.
