Located just 15 miles south of Erie, Pa., the College's setting offers a contrast of seasons. Enhanced by the beauty of Edinboro Lake, the com­ munity serves as a resort center during the summer while numerous nearby ski slopes offer a variety of recreation in the picturesque winter months. The College's location enables it to readily serve the tri­ state area with its proximity to Pittsburgh, Pa. (125 miles), Cleveland, Ohio (100 miles) and Buffalo, New York (120 miles). Moreover, it is easily accessible from the north and south by Interstate 79 and east and west by Interstate 90. Until recently the chief objective of the College was the education and preparation of classroom teachers for the schools of the Commonwealth. With the implementation of programs in arts, sciences and humanities, Edinboro has now become a multi-purpose institution of higher learning serving the educational needs of a tri-state area. The College has experienced a rapid growth rate in students, faculty and physical plant. Forty buildings cover the 585-acre campus which now services more than 7,000 students. Edinboro President - Dr. Chester T. McNerney In its university oriented role, the College makes contributions in the fields of education, government, conservation, environmental improvement, urban and rural problems, crime prevention, and service to business and industry. Edinboro seeks to offer educational pro­ grams which will afford maximum opportunities to its potential students and to meet the educational needs of its region from a professional and a cultural stand­ point. • • • A LEADER IN EDUCATION With the addition of the liberal arts degree program in 1962, the College's curriculum has expanded to include numerous course selections. Curricula range from elementary and secondary education, special fields in art, library science, music and special education to medical technology. Student activities are designed to develop the personality, poise, self-confidence and professional awareness that will fit graduates for significant par­ ticipation in American society. The College stresses friendly relations among students and faculty, as well as active student par­ ticipation in decisions affecting them. Quality education has been an Edinboro tradition for more than a century as graduates have distinguished themselves in the professions, business and industry. With the appointment of Dr. Chester T. McNerney as Edinboro State's President in 1966, the College has undergone innovations and reorganization that have enabled the College to keep in step with the times and maintain its academic excellence. Edinboro State College is at the brink of a new era and has taken the initiative for a new direction among the state colleges of Pennsylvania. The College plans to offer programs in such diverse fields as international education, business administration and engineering to meet its leadership responsibilities in the years ahead. Keeping pace with the College's academic progress has been a building program which has dramatically changed the physical appearance of the campus over the past decade. Included among the additions are a nine-acre lake, an athletic complex, dormitory quadrant and new student services facilities such as a student union, dining hall and health center. Scheduled for completion in the near future are a new library and administration building. Marching Scots Band Nationally Famed PERFORM AT STEELERS-CHIEFS GAME The nationally renown Marching Scots Band under the direction of Richard Lemke and Ronald Byerly will continue to offer spectacular performances which serve as top-notch entertainment throughout the season. Featured in the Marching Scots Band is a con­ tingent of 154 strong which includes 130 instru­ mentalists, 21 tarn o'shanters and 9 majorettes. For the third straight year, the Band of Scots will be performing in Three Rivers Stadium where this year they provide the pre-game and halftime shows for the Pittsburgh Steelers-Kansas City Chiefs game. The Edinboro State band last year was featured on national television when it provided entertainment fot the Steelers-Cincinnati Bengalsgame. This year the Scots band will present "Games People Play" as their show at Three Rivers. Karianne Baklarz In addition to the appearance at the Steeler game, the Marching Scots band will perform at all of Edinboro's home and several away football games. Productions for the 1975 season, in addition to the "Games People Play," are "Marching Down Broadway," "They Don't Write Songs Like That Anymore" and "Salute to the Bicentennial" which will be the homecoming show. Pittsburgh senior, Karianne Baklarz, serves as the featured twirler for the Marching Scots and is ac­ companied by solo twirlers. Holly Mayer from Novelty, Ohio and Jeanne Schultz from Pittsburgh. The combined trio has won numerous twirling honors and together forms one of the most talented groups of twirlers in the United States. Drum major for the Marching Scots Band is Steve Barber, a junior from Johnstown. The Tam O' Shanters Scots Showcase Most Returnees in History . .. While Edinboro State's 1975 football squad has all the ingredients to become a collegiate grid power­ house, seventh-year mentor Bill McDonald holds his breath everytime the Scots don pads for practice sessions. McDonald's band of Scots found themselves in a similar position last year, but injuries to key performers left Edinboro with a very respectable, but frustrating 5-2-2 season mark. Once again, the Scots have plenty of reasons to anxiously embark upon their first-ever 10-game schedule. This year's team showcases a pair of all-time highs with the most lettermen in the school's history, a total of 34, and the largest group of seniors ever, 16. "If our key players stay healthy and our injured from last year come back at full strength, we could be a conference contender," projected McDonald. But the ESC coach quickly tempered any signs of optimism by adding, "We're still fighting a depth problem and will be playing a heckuva lot of good football teams. You just can't replace experience when it comes to the skill positions," he continued. Most of the experience returns to the Scots' offensive unit where all eleven starters are in the lineup once again. Top prospects here include tackle Rick Vornadore (6-2, 225, Sr.), quarterback Jude Basile (6-0, 180, Sr.), wide receiver Howard Hackley (5-9, 170, Jr.) and last year's leading ground gainer, fullback Rich Holmes (6-0, 210, Sr.). The Fighting Scots hope to join with the Chinese in celebrating "The Year of the Rabbit" by exhibiting their running talents. Fullback Rich Holmes, who usually counts more on his power plunges than shiftiness, spearheads the Scots' ground game. In 126 tries last year. Holmes was dumped only one time for a sevenyard loss, while piling up 480 yards rushing. The firstteam All-District back averaged 3.8 yards per carry and finished as the Scots' leading scorer with his seven touchdowns for 42 points. Right behind him is returning tailback Melvin Morrisette who rambled for 206 yards in only three games before being sidelined with a knee injury that required surgery. Morrisette's starting assignment, however, is being challenged by 5-10, 200-pound sophomore Dave Green who could be Edinboro's most explosive runner since record-breaking rusher Al Raines. Giving the Scots added depth in the running corps is sophomore Bryon Libert (6-2, 195). Edinboro opponents will face double trouble as the Fighting Scots also have a potent air attack to augment their ground game. Last year, Basile flipped a record 1,175 yards and connected on six aerial scores. The senior field general can become the career TD passing leader by adding only three more strikes to his current 13 touchdown passes. Backing him up at the quarterback slot is 6-2 junior Dan McHenry, one of the big surprises in spring drills. Anxiously awaiting the aerial barrage are split ends Howard Hackley, tight end Steve Larson and flanker Wes Bain. Hackley tallied 31 receptions last year for 472 yards and needs only one reception to topple Jim Romaniszyn's career mark of 57 catches. Both Larson and Bain hauled the pigskin down ten times apiece for respective 181 and 152 yard totals. Helping Vornadore to pave the way up front are senior guard Andre Wachenheimer (6-2, 220), center Doug Goodman (6-1, 205), guard Lou Provenzano (6-0, 220) and tackle Greg Hampy (6-2, 235). Also in the thick of the battle is converted defensive tackle Rich Radzavich (6-4, 255) who is now vying for the starting center berth. Defensively, the search is on for a pair of line­ backers, but the rest of the Scots' unit is fairly well in SCOUTING THE SCOTS General Facts Team Facts Name: Edinboro State College Location: Edinboro, Pennsylvania 16444 Enrollment: 7,000 Nickname: Fighting Scots Colors: Red and White Conference: Pennsylvania Conference National Affiliations: NAIA, NCAA, ECAC Field Name (Cap.): Sox Harrison (5,000) Athletic Director: Al Hall Sports Information Director: Paul Newman Sports Information Phone: 814—732-2745 1974 Record: 5-2-2 Conference Place, Record: 5th, 2-2-2 Head Coach: Bill McDonald, Cincinnati, '52 Seasons, Overall Record: 6,34-17-5 1975 Captains: Jude Basile (QB), Dave Seigh (DB), Rick Vornadore (OT) Lettermen Returning: 34 Starters Returning: 18 Team Strengths: Vets at skill positions Team Weaknesses: Depth, Linebackers Basic Offense: Houston veer Basic Defense: 5-2 Assistant Coaches: Fred Remmy, Jim Bowen, Guy Conti, Andy Robertson, Jim Gilstrap. ”We’re still fighting a depth problem” - McDonald tact. The secondary is led by seniors Dave Seigh and Dan Smith, along with junior standouts George Miller and Jim Terry. Miller finished sixth on last year's tackle chart with 54 hits to his credit while picking off a pair of enemy aerials. He also proved to be highly instru­ mental in blocking several point after touchdown kicks and field goal attempts. Seigh chipped in with a pair of interceptions and led the squad in fumble recoveries with three. Adding talented help to this group are letterwinners Kevin Campbell and Brad Crawshaw. Providing the muscle up front are tackles Don DIugos (6-3, 240) and Jeff Shaw (6-2, 230) who are split by middle guard Ron Gooden (6-4, 250). Sand­ wiching the front wall are seniors Jim Barto (6-2, 195) and Jan Gefert (6-1, 205) at the terminals. Both tackle Rick McMahon (6-0, 220) and middle guard Mike Ferrare are coming off standout perform­ ances in the spring and will see plenty of front line duty. The key to solidifying the defense lies in finding replacementsfor graduated linebackers Jim McClureand Mike Schnirel who led the team with 104 tackles apiece last year. Scheduled to step into the vacated posts are Kevin Erickson (6-1, 210) and Greg Sullivan (6-1, 180). "Even though the upcoming season looks bright," summarized Scot pilot Bill McDonald, "everyone else has improved like we have. Slippery Rock has a great edge with their three straight conference champion­ ships and Indiana, as well as Clarion, is still tough. We also have to face some powerful independents in Fairmont and Baldwin-Wallace." 1975 FIGHTING SCOTS .

Winning Becomes Tradition Under McDonald While he directed Indiana University's offense, the Big Indians registered 24 regular season victories against only three defeats. In his final season at Indiana, the Tribe finished unbeaten in nine outings and proved to be the greatest offensive unit in the school's history with a 40 points-per-game average. The Wall, Pa., native guided Hopewell High School to a 46-25-1 slate during his seven-year tenure as head coach. His 1960 ball club defeated Braddock High 7-6 and broke their WPIAL 58-game winning streak while his 1963 team captured the Midwest Class A Championship. The Fighting Scots' grid pilot served as an assistant coach at Braddock High School through two unde­ feated seasons and also at Latrobe High. McDonald holds both a B.S. degree in education and a M.Ed. from the Univ. of Cincinnati where he played linebacker under Sid Gillman and his assistant coach Paul Dietzel. This team was the original "Chinese Bandits," a defensive unit which later became famous at Louisiana State University. Gillman was head coach of the San Diego Chargers for 12 years and became general manager for the Houston Oilers after the 1972 season. After graduation from Cincinnati in 1952, the Scots' mentor continued his education in post graduate work at Penn State, Pitt and Indiana (Pa.) Universities. Head Coach - Bill McDonald Bill McDonald carries an impressive 34-17-5 record into the 1975 season aher six years of leading the Fighting Scots' gridiron program. Under his direction, ESC gridders posted identical 9-1 slates in both 1970 and 1971 while piling up a winning streak of 21 straight regular season games. His 34-17-5 mark puts him at the top of the winning percentage list among Edinboro State football coaches with a 67 per cent reading. After an initial 4-4-1 season in 1969, his Fighting Scots became the greatest in ESC history when they went 8-0 in regular season play, captured the Lambert Bowl, won the Pennsylvania Conference championship and earned a berth in the NAIA national playoffs. His 1971 team followed up with an undefeated regular season (9-0) and a second straight PC Western Division title. Over 60 individual and team records have been established during his first six years at the reigns. Upon completion of 1970's successful venture, numerous post-season laurels were bestowed upon the Scot's mentor. The Football Writers Association of New York named McDonald Coach of the Year in the East while the NAIA Area VIII and District 18 coaches as well as the Pennsylvania Collegiate Press Association also rewarded him with Coach of the Year honors. Prior to his assignment at Edinboro, McDonald served as assistant football coach at Indiana Univ. of Pa. for three years and head coach at Hopewell High School from 1958-1965.

Jim and his wife, Joyce, along with their 7 children, two of which, are twin girls, reside in Girard. JIM GILSTRAP - Offensive Line Beginning his fourth year on the Fighting Scot staff is top talent scouter Jim Gilstrap who tutors the offensive line. Gilstrap returned to Edinboro last season after spending four years as offensive line coach at Illinois State University in Bloomington, III. He originally was a member of the Scot staff in 1968 and 1969 when he netted an outstanding group of grid prospects who proved to be highly successful in the Fighting Scot football program. A graduate of Clay High School in South Bend, Indiana, Gilstrap received his B.S. degree from Western Michigan University after lettering three years as a center for the Broncos. He earned his M.S. at Southern Illinois University and served as a graduate assistant on the S.I.U. football staff. His coaching past also includes two years as assistant coach at Case Tech in Cleveland, Ohio. ANDY ROBERTSON - Secondary Jim Gilstrap Andy Robertson FRED REMMY - Defensive Coordinator Commencing his fourth year of molding the Fighting Scots' stubborn defense is Fred Remmy, former head football recruiter and freshman coach at the University of Miaitii. Last fall,, Remmy spent most of his time putting together the Scots' highly touted^ secondary, while this year most of his efforts in coordinating the defense will be directed at the line­ backers and the defensive front line. The Verona, Pa., native graduated from Miami in 1959 and began his coaching career in 1960 as an assistant at his hometown high school of Verona. He then spent a two-year stint as head coach and athletic director at the United States Coast Guard Receiving Center. Prior to returning to Miami in 1970, Remmy established successful grid programs at the Florida high schools of Dunedin (1965-67) and Lakeland (1968-70). Fred, his wife, Pat, and their two children, Rick and Stacy, now make Edinboro their northern home. Grooming Edinboro's talent studded secondary is fourth year coach Andy Robertson who last year directed his efforts toward producing Edinboro State's record-breaking passing game. Andy was an AllWPIAL quarterback at Hopewell High School while playing under Bill McDonald. After graduation in 1964, he traveled to the University of Southern Colorado where he played halfback for three years on the nation­ ally recognized Colorado team. After receiving a B.A. degree in 1968, he served as an assistant grid coach at Florence (Colo.) before returning to the Keystone State in 1969 as a grid aide at Derry Area High. An assistantship at the University of North Carolina during 1970 was interrupted by a 1 %-year "call to duty" with the Armed Forces in Germany. The Scot coach lives in Edinboro with his wife, Becky, and their son Greg. JIIVI BOWEN - Offensive Coordinator This veteran coach is back at home this year guiding the Fighting Scots' offensive attack while working primarily with the ESC backfield. Bowen is entering his ninth season with the Scots and has served as the backfield coach tutoring such greats as Joe Sanford, Jim Romaniszyn, Bob Mengerink and Al Raines. Jim was head football coachat Fairview High School for 10 years and compiled an outstanding record of 76 wins and 12 losses. His grid teams captured four league championships while riding 25 and 19 game winning streaks. The knowledgeable Scot coach graduated from Assistant Coaches: Barney Rutkowski, Jeff Idzik, Tom Herman and Dale Grimes. A Team Behind the Team GUY CONTI - Receivers Entering his fifth year of helping move the Fighting Scots' offense is Guy Conti, who was also recently named Edinboro State's head basketball coach. He will be grooming one of the best setsof receivers in Edinboro State's history, a group which last year teamed for a record-breaking 1,387 yards in the air. The Clarion grad served as head football coach at Northwestern High in 1971 and baseball mentor at Edinboro State (1970-71), where his diamond teams posted record-breaking seasons. Conti spent a professional baseball stint with the Houston Astros organization as a catcher. The versatile athlete was an outstanding football player at Freeport High and Clarion State as a quarterback. He has also served as a teacher, vice-principal, head baseball mentor and assistant basketball coach at Northwestern High School. Conti, his wife, Janet, and their children, Kim, Curt, Craig and Kelly, reside in Edinboro. AL HALL - Athletic Director Since Al Hall's appointment as Athletic Director in 1968, Edinboro State has enjoyed one of the most respected and most successful collegiate athletic pro­ grams in the East. Through his efforts, Edinboro State College has become a focal point for athletics in North­ western Pennsylvania and has hosted numerous championship events. Typical of this was the desig­ nation of ESC as the site for the 1972 National YMCA Diving and Swimming Championships, the largest swimming meet in the world. Under his leadership, ESC's sports program has vastly expanded and attained new memberships in the ECAC and NCAA while building a coaching staff that has compiled the College's best record in history. Al's selection to numerous sport committees in the Erie area along with posts in both the ECAC and Pennsylvania Conference bear out his dedication to the world of athletics. A graduate of Baldwin-Wallace College, he served as Assistant Director of Athletics at Akron University for two years and piloted Akron's cross country teams to champion­ ship finishes for 12 seasons. Al, his wife, Pam, daughter, Beth, and their son. Dale, reside in Edinboro. Bob Klingler Paul Newman PAUL NEWMAN - Publicity Director Paul Newman began his duties eight years ago as ESC's first Sports Information Director and now also serves as Assistant to the President for External Affairs. Paul is a 1964 graduate of Edinboro where he earned both his B.S. degree and M.Ed. while majoring in English. Prior to joining the Scots, he held a teaching position in Ashtabula, Ohio, for three years. In con­ nection with his duties, he is also the District 18 Publicity Chairman for the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics and recently completed a twoyear term as President of the NAIA's Sports Information Director's Association. Paul, his wife, Connie, and their children, Paul, Jr., Michele and Scott, make their home in Edinboro. BOB KLINGLER - Team Trainer Giving Fighting Scot athletes the tops in pro­ fessional medical care and producing top-notch staffs of student trainers has been the trademark of trainer Bob Klingler who begins his ninth season at Edinboro State. The 1952 Lock Haven grad ventured to Hermann School of Physical Therapy in Houston, Texas and be­ came a registered physical therapist in 1954. He later received his M.S. from Bucknell. Prior to accepting his ESC post, Klingler taught at Milton Hershey, a private boys' school in Hershey, Pa., where he served as the Spartans' head football mentor, head track coach and assistant basketball coach. Both his cinder and cage teams never experienced a losing season, while his grid teams continually posted successful campaigns in the powerful Capitol Area Conference. Bob, his wife, Jill, and daughter, July, make their home in Washington Township. Student Trainers (standing L-R): "Doc" Klingler, James Hill, George Roberts, R.

CAPSULE OUTLOOK: Edinboro State and West Virginia Wesleyan will lock horns for the first time in the two schools' history when they meet on the Bobcat's Ross Field in what will be the season opener for both teams. Head Coach Kent Carpenter feels that his team will be vastly improved since a major rebuilding program which began three years ago should start to show its dividends. The Bobcats lost only five seniors from last year's squad and the bulk of sophomore and junior starters have logged plenty of varsity playing time. Offensively, running back Steve Vannoy should spear­ head the Bobcats' running attack behind quarterback John Luchs. Anchoring Wesleyan's defensive unit will be tackles Larry Harris (6-3, 250) and Barry Myers (6-2, 220). 1974 Results (7-4) FSC 0pp. 1 Shepherd............... 0 34 Bluefield State.. . .14 7 Edinboro.................12 13 W.

The Falcons are seeking their third straight West Virginia Inter­ collegiate Athletic Conference championship and will call upon some highly impressive offensive performers in their quest for the crown. Fullback Mike Maximin became the all-time rushing leader at Fairmont with his total of 2,193 yards after last season and quarterback Terry Galambus moved to third on the all-time Falcon passing list with his 1,794 yards. Also on hand is split end Larry Goodine whose 1,390 yards in pass receptions ranks him second among all-time receivers at Fairmont.

CAPSULE OUTLOOK: Although this is Saginaw Valley's first year of intercollegiate football, opponents should by no means be lulled into a false sense of security. Cinderella has nothing over this club that last year acquired Coach Frank "Muddy" Waters from Hillsdale College following a $1 million gift from a Saginaw philanthropist. Waters compiled a 20-year record of 138-46-5 at Hillsdale, along with one NAIA national championship and seven bowl appearances. The new head coach, who also serves as Athletic Director, already has 130 football candidates from which to fill his 22 starting positions. Sixty-five players return from a squad that played a junior varsity schedule last season to give the Fighting Cardinals an experienced nucleus. Among the returnees are five prep All-Americans and no less than 12 quarterback candidates. Also on tap are a host of incoming freshmen who were all-state performers. The top caliber recruits include some junior college transfers to help the Cardinals wing their way through the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference. 1975 Schedule 1974 Results Cl-7) CSC 0pp. 0 Millersville........ . .40 33 Lock Haven.. . . . . 6 0 Waynesburg__ . .17 6 Slippery Rock. . . .34 0 Shippensburg. . . .28 17 Clarion..................28 0 Indiana.............. . .20 14 Edinboro........... . .27 S.
