Now in the final year of his presi­
dency, Foster F. Diebold will retire in
the summer of 1996 after having
served Edinboro University of Penn­
sylvania, the State System of Higher
Education and the people of Pennsyl­
vania for 17 years as the 14th chief
executive officer of the institution of
higher learning that has come to
acclaim under his leadership as one
of Pennsylvania's and the nation's
finest. Only one other chief executive,
Joseph Cooper, who was principal of
the then Edinboro State Normal
School for 29 years between 1863 and
1892, has served a longer term of
office than President Diebold.
Much has been accomplished
during President Diebold's tenure.
He has brought a vigorous educa­
tional and moral leadership, a
strengthening of the spirit of commu­
nity, a clear sense of mission and pur­
pose, and a new dimension of
multiculturalism and diversity. The
University has returned to and main­
tained financial health. Academic
programs have been emphasized and
improved, with more than 100 degree
programs now offered. A renewed
commitment to teacher education
came with his establishment of the
Center for Excellence in Teaching.
Significant facilities and grounds
improvements have been achieved,
with several of the historic campus
structures restored to their original
splendor, a student union expansion
completed, and an Alumni House
constructed. Enrollment gains have
been imprecedented in both numbers
and academic quality. International
linkage agreements with 15 educa­
tional institutions and organizations
in four countries have positioned
Edinboro University as a leader in
international education both in the
U.S. and abroad. And Edinboro Uni­
versity's program for students with
disabilities, one of the first in the
nation, continues to enjoy wide
recognition as one of the finest at any
college or university in the country.
The Orange, New Jersey, native is
a graduate of Monmouth College and

also holds a master of arts in educa­
tional administration from Seton Hall
University. He has met coursework
requirements for a doctorate in edu­
cation at Rutgers University and is
currently completing the dissertation
requirement for the Ph.D. program in
higher education at the University of
Pittsburgh.
Prior to his presidency of Edin­
boro University, President Diebold
was president of the University of
Alaska from 1977 to 1979. Before that,
he was executive secretary to the
Board of Regents and special assis­
tant to the president of the University
of Alaska Statewide System. From
1969 to 1976, he was director of
Development and Planning at Kean
College in New Jersey and a member
of the graduate faculty at that institu­
tion; and from 1965 to 1969, he was
assistant superintendent of the Nep­
tune Township (New Jersey) Public
Schools.
Recognized for his extensive
experience in the field of education
management. President Diebold's
scholarly achievements in the disci­
pline of applied ethics in higher edu­
cation deserve special mention. The
model statement he authored for the
American Association of State Col­
leges and Universities, "Ethical Prac­
tices for College Presidents," was
unanimously adopted by that profes­
sional organization and published as
policy for the chief executives of its
nearly 400 member institutions
nationwide. It is the first formally
adopted ethical practices and policy
statement for higher education presi­
dents.
President Diebold has been hon­
ored by the Government of Pakistan
with the awarding of the degree of
Doctor of Laws (honoris causa), pre­
sented at the Government House in
the City of Karachi. The ceremony
was attended by the presidents of the
several Pakistani universities holding
linkage agreements with Edinboro
University, as well as many highranking officials of the Government
5

Foster F. Diebold
of Pakistan and U.S. diplomatic offi­
cials.
A staunch advocate of a
statewide system of public universi­
ties in Pennsylvania, President
Diebold supported the enabling legis­
lation for the State System of Higher
Education (Act 188 of 1982) and saw
the State System come to existence in
1983 as a member of the transition
team. He currently serves on the Sys­
tem's Executive Council of Presidents
and on the boards of the Pennsylva­
nia Academy for the Profession of
Teaching, the Pennsylvania State Ath­
letic Conference, and the Dixon Uni­
versity Center at Harrisburg.
President Diebold's stature in
American higher education has been
recognized by several high-level
appointments. He was named to the
National Committee on U.S.-China
Relations, the leading national orga­
nization devoted to building con­
structive relationships between the
two countries. He was also appointed
to the Leadership Council of the
Northeast-Midwest Institute, a
regional component of the Center for
Regional Policy, and to the Pennsyl­
vania Humanities Council, the pri­
vate, non-profit group promoting
statewide public understanding of
the humanities.

Head Coach Tom Hollman
In January 1988, Edinboro Uni­
versity hired Tom Hollman, Athens,
Ohio, as its eleventh head football
coach in the school's history. Hollman
came to Edinboro from Ohio Univer­
sity, where he was the defensive coor­

Hollman, beginning his eighth
year, has the Scot program back in
the national spotlight. At Edinboro,
he has earned 52 wins against just 22
losses and two ties and owns an
impressive 31-9-2 slate against the
PSAC Western Division. Throughout
his seven year career at Edinboro, he
has never had a losing season. In
addition, he has coached two Harlon
Hill Award finalists, and the schools
career leaders in passing, rushing,
receiving and interceptions. The Scots
have advanced to post-season play
four of the past six years.
In 1989, he was named the top
coach in the East Region by the
National Football Coaches Associa­
tion and also tabbed the top coach in
the PSAC West. In 1990, he guided
the Scots to their first-ever NCAA II
playoff win as Edinboro routed Vir­
ginia Union and advanced to the
national quarterfinals.
"As a coach, I have been fortu­
nate to coach at many different levels,
from high school to Division I. The
Division II level here at Edinboro is
very appealing to me in relation to
my career goals. It is a great feeling to
be a head coach at this level."
Hollman's educational back­
ground begins with a high school
diploma from Memorial High School
in St, Mary's, Ohio, followed by his
imdergraduate degree in education
from Ohio Northern University in
1968. Three years later Hollman
received his master of science degree
in education from Xavier University
in Cincinnati, Ohio.

former as a defensive back and offen­
sive end during his junior and senior
years. He holds the school record
with 13 career interceptions and
earned All-American and All-t)istrict
honors during the 1966 and 1967 sea­
sons. Hollman also lettered in base­
ball for three years during his stay at
Ohio Northern.
A chronological look at Holl­
man's coaching career begins in 1968
as an assistant coach' at Sidney High
School in Sidney, Ohio. From there,
Hollman moved on to Greenville
High School in Ohio where he
became head coach from 1971-73. His
Greenville squads posted an impres­
sive 26-2-2 mark during his threeyear stay.
Hollman then moved on to Fre­
mont Ross High School as head coach
for the 1974 and 1975 seasons, where
his squad recorded 15 wins against
three setbacks and two ties. Fremont
was the Buckeye Conference champ
in 1974, imbeaten at 9-0-1.
In 1976, Hollman moved on to
the collegiate ranks where he was the
defensive coordinator for his alma
mater at Ohio Northern University.
The following year, Hollman
accepted the head coach position at
Wooster College (OH) and guided his
squad to the best four-year record in
the school history (24-11-1).

1995 Preview - Reloading or Rebuilding?
Replacing players each year is a chal­
lenge - but replacing greatness is another.
Gone from a season ago is the school's
all-time leading rusher, passer and inter­
ception leader.
Whether 1995 turns into a season of
reloading or rebuilding remains a
mystery but it is likely the program's
foundation and well-deserved reputation
will have the Scot program back in the
limelight again this fall.
Entering his eighth season directing
the Boro forhmes, head coach Tom Hollman returns 14 starters and 33 lettermen
to a squad that posted a 7-3 mark a year
ago. In '94, the Scots earned a #17 rank­
ing at season's end marking the sixth con­
secutive season Edinboro had finished
among the nation's top 20. Since '91, the
Plaid has earned two trips to the NCAA
n championship field of 16 and posted an
impressive 30-12-1 overall record.

The task at hand in '95 will be filling
the shoes of record-setting All-Americans
Larry Jackson, Jody Dickerson and Steve
Russell. What makes this season even
more of challenge is the Boro must look
for replacements while playing, arguably,
the toughest schedule in school history.
Difficult from the beginning, the Scots
open with a home contest against Hills­
dale, Division IPs winningest program.
The 10-game ledger also features non­
conference road games at Division I-AA
Appalachian State and Division II power
Portland State, while the Boro's cross­
over home game from the Pennsylvania
State Athletic Conference (PSAC) Eastern
Division is vastly improved Mansfield.
The divisional slate consists of home
games against Lock Haven, California
and lUP whereas the Boro treks to Shippensburg. Slippery Rock and Clarion. A
strong road team the past three regular
seasons (12-2-1), the Scots successes in '95
will again be based on their abilities to
continue winning away from Sox Harri­
son Stadium.

A Breakdown of Personnel
Skill Positions
/
Traditionally a strength for the team
has turned into the biggest question mark
for '95. With the departure of Jackson and
Dickerson, the Scots lose over 12,000
yards of total offense. Simply stated, the
Boro's success offensively will parallel the
progression of junior quarterback Chris
Hart. A backup the past two seasons.
Hart has played in 16 games, completing
38% of his passes for 112 yards, one score
and one interception. The running back
spot is solid with the return of Tony Brin­
son (221 yards, 2 TDs) and the addition of
highly-touted Gerald Thompson. Look
for the Scots to rely heavily on the run­
ning game to assist Hart's development.
The wideout spot is open with the depar­
ture of big-play man Lateef Walters. Terry
Roberts, who has averaged nearly 27
yards per catch the past two years, must
step up in '95.

Offensive Line
If who is throwing, running or catch­
ing the ball is a question, then the founda­
tion for '95 will be the return of the entire
offensive line from a year ago. All-Ameri­
can tackle Jeremy O'Day is outstanding
and will team with center Det Betti,
guards Chad Wallick and Chris Barney
and tackle Tom Lavis to secure the attack.
Jesse Trevino also has plenty of game
experience from a year ago. Tight end
Todd Henne (15 receptions, 158 yards, 2
TDs) was named second team PSAC-West
a year ago and returns as the squad's top
pass catcher. John Sabo (6, 53,1 td) is also
solid.

Matt Gentile (46 tackles) and A1 Bass (32,
2 recoveries). Rich Jones (21 stops, 6
games) is also back while junior college
transfer Jeff Traversy should step in and
have an immediate impact.

Linebackers
All conference performer Michael
Sims returns to anchor the second line of
defense. Sims led the squad with 124 total
tackles a year ago including 85 solo hits.
He was in on four tackles for loss and
intercepted one pass. With the departure
of All-American Michael Edwards, the
Scots may face a void here. Jerry Roberts,
who recorded 16 hits in a reserve role a
year ago, may be the one to step up.
Emery Martin (9 stops, 3 games) and
transfer Vanroy Williams (6-2, 235) could
also play major roles for the Scots.

Secondary
Gone is All-American Steve Russell,
the team's all-time interception leader but
three other starters, with plenty of biggame experience return. Both cornerbacks, Marty Williams and Keith
Cushenberry, earned second team all­
west selections in '94. Williams was
foiuth on the squad with 68 stops includ­
ing four tackles for loss, one interception
and six deflections. Cushenberry regis­
tered 36 tackles and was second on the
team with two picks. Rick Walker, a parttime starter through his career, is looking
to recover from last year's shoulder
injury. He contributed 39 hits in just six
games in '94.

Specialties
Defensive Line
Another crew which returns intact is
the defensive front. All-American end Pat
Schuster (65 tackles, 10 sacks) is closing in
on the school's all-time sack record. Last
season, Schuster registered 22 total tack­
les behind the line for -103 yards. All con­
ference end Bryan Lambert (73 stops, 7
sacks) also returns along with tackles
11

The Boro faces two holes to fill with
the graduation of veteran placekicker
Scott Rupert and the departure of Eric
Wagner. In addition, with the graduation
of Russell and Walters, the Scots must
find replacements to return kicks and
punts.

Scot Success in the Classroom

ONE STOP SHOPPING

Progression of the student-athlete
has always been a priority for Coach Tom
Hollman and his staff. This past year, the
tradition of success on the field and in the
classroom continued for the Fighting Sept
football program. A pair of starters, tight
end Todd Henne and safety Rick Walker,
not only had quality years on the gridiron
for the Scots but were recognized as
national scholar-athletes by College Foot­
ball Preview magazine. The pair were also
honored as top student-athletes by the
Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference
and Edinboro University. Both students
currently own cumulative grade point
marks of better than 3.5. In 1994, Henne
earned PSAC-West second team all star
honors for his 15 catches for 158 yards
and a pair of scores while Walker record­
ed 39 tackles, 20 solo, in just six games
due to a shoulder injury.

NCAA Division I-AA. Edinboro stormed back the following week, upsetting
Portland (OR) State University, 26-7, on the West Coast. The Boro then opened
PSAC-West play with a 52-12 win over Lock Haven University.
California opened the season with a 28-26 win over Fairmont (WV) State
College, but has lost five straight games to stand at 1-5 overall, including 0-2 in the
PSAC-West.
The Vuicans' losing streak began with a 31-29 setback to Glenville (WV) State
College. Cal then lost to a pair of PS AC-East teams, falling 24-20 to Bloomsburg
University of Permsylvania and 34-0 to Kutztown University of Pennsylvania. In
PSAC-West action, the Vuicans lost to Slippery Rock University of Permsylvania,
42-14, and to nationaUy-ranked Indiana University of Permsylvania, 44-20.
NCAA NATIONAL/REGIONAL RANKINGS
After three consecutive weeks ranked sixth in the Northeast Region, the Fighting
Scots jumped one spot to No. 5 and into the NCAA Division II Top 20 for the first
time this se^on. Edinboro was ranked 18th nationally this week, the first time this
season the Scots have cracked the poll.
Ferris (MI) State University was ranked No. 1 in the region this week, switching
places with New Haven, who feU from first to second after tying West Chester, 3636. New Haven dropped from No. 3 nationally to sixth.
Indiana remained third in the region and moved up one spot nationally, from 10th
to ninth. Grand Valley (MI) State moved up one spot in the region, from fifth to
fourth, and re-entered the national poll at No. 15.
Millersville dropped from fourth in the region to sixth and fell from out of the
national poU after being ranked No. 12.
SCOTS ' OPPONENT UPDATE
How tough was the Boro's three-game opening stretch?

the Edinboro game, bounced back from the loss to post three straight victories
including a 14-6 victory over Eastern Washington University the program's seventh
straight victory over an NCAA Division I-AA program dating back to the '93
campaign. The Vikings were ranked eighth nationally in Division II this week.

OPPONENT FAST FACTS

• Appalachian State, which beat Edinboro, 44-7, the second week of the season
after leading just 20-7 midway through the third quarter, is still unbeaten (5-0) and
ranked No. 2 inNCAA Division I-AA. Edinboro actually outgained the Mountaineers
and had an edge in time of possession, but big plays in key situations doomed the
Scots.
• Hillsdale (MI) College has shut out three of its six opponents this year and are
currently 4-2. The Chargers, who lost 21 -14 at Edinboro in the season opener, also
dropped a 17-10 decision to conference front-runner Ferris (MI) State University.
Ferris is unbeaten, ranked No. 1 in the region and ranked No. 4 in this week's NCAA
Division II poll.

THOMPSON CONTINUES TO SHINE IN ROOKIE SEASON
Edinboro running back Gerald Thompson, a redshht freshman, continues to impress in his rookie season. After rushing fo^
149 yards in consectuve games against Portland State and Lock Haven, Thompson followed it up with a 28-carry, 169-yard
effort last Saturday at Shippensburg. Thompson also rushed for 133 yards in the Boro's season-opening win over HiUsdale.
The only time Thompson failed to gain 100 yards was in the Scots' loss to Appalachian State, when he suffered a foot injury
and carried just six times for 27 yards. For the season, Thompson has rush^ for 626 yards and six touchdowns on 101 carries'
(6.2 yards per carry). He currently ranks second in the PSAC and 14th nationaUy, averaging 125.2 rushing yards per game.
Thompson also has a 75-yard TD reception.
MORE ON THE OFFENSE
Edinboro wideout Gilbert GrantUn also is turning in a solid season. Grantlin has caught 20 passes for 431 yards and four
touchdowns. Grantlin is averaging 86.2 receiving yards per game, ranking him fifth among PSAC pass catchere. The junior
also ranks sixth in the PSAC in kickoff returns (10 returns, 23.9-yard average) and fifth in the conference in all-puipose yardage
(152.8 yards per game). Junior quarterback Chris Hart has completed 57 of 118 passes (48 percent) for 834 yards, with seven
touchdowns and 10 interceptions. He ranks eighth in the PSAC with a 109.1 efficiency ranking.
THE 'BORO DEFENSE
Much of Edinboro's success this year can be attributed to the solid play of the defense. Throw out the Appalachian State
game, and the Scots have allowed just 10.0 points per game against NCAA Division II foes.
Senior defensive end Pat Schuster, a consensus All-American last season and a strong candidate to earn post-season
accolades again this season, highlights the Boro's defense. Schuster is tied for the team lead with 45 tackles, including 28 solo
stops. He leads the Scots with six sacks and is the school's all-time leader with 28.
Senior linebacker Michael Sims is tied with Schuster for
the team lead in tackles with 45. Twenty-four of Sims' stops
Edinboro & California in the
have been solo stops. Junior safety Ron Allen has registered
PSAC & NCAA-II Statistics
44 tackle, including a team-high 29 solo stops. Allen also is
the PSAC's co-leader with four interceptions.

Assistant Coaches
Scott Browning - Offensive Line
Starting his 10th season at the Boro,
Scott has coached running backs and the
defensive backfield in year's past and
now enters his second season directing
the offensive line. Under his guidance a
year ago, the Scots' front line cleared the
way for over 450 yards of total offense
per game and conference best 250 yards
per game rushing. In his many capacities,
he has guided the fortunes of All-Ameri­
cans Steve Russell, Michael Willis, Wade
Smith, Georj Lewis, Mike Barnes, Elbert
Cole and Jeremy O'Day.
Scott came to Edinboro from Ohio
State University, where he coached
receivers and running backs. Prior to his
start at OSU, Browning coached at Wor­
thington and Dayton-Fairview high
schools in Ohio, from 1979-81. Then, as a

graduate assistant, he coached the defen­
sive secondary at New Mexico Btate in
1982.
In 1983, he mentored the receivers at
Idaho State University which advanced to
the Division I-AA playoffs.
Browning earned a master's degree
in education administration from New
Mexico State in 1983, and a BS in educa­
tion from Ohio State in 1981. Earlier,
before transferring to OSU, Scott attended
Capital University where he played foot­
ball for one season. Browning was a fouryear letterman in four sports at
Loudonville High School (OH) prior to
his collegiate days. Scott is married to the
former Lynn Hook, and has a son,
Andrew Scott. The Brownings reside in
Edinboro.

Dan Gierlak - Linebackers
Dan Gierlak enters his ninth season
as a full-time coach, shifting his responsi­
bilities from coaching the running backs
to linebacker coach. He was formerly the
head women's softball coach for the Scots
and led the squad to the PSAC playoffs in
1990.
Gierlak came to the 'Boro from Thiel
College (Pa.) where he coached the defen­
sive secondary for the 1984 season. Dan, a
starter and three-year letterwinner for the
Plaid in the secondary, moved on to the
semi-pro ranks with the Chicago Cow­
boys. During his short stint with the
Cowboys, Gierlak's squad gained nation­
al championship honors in 1984 and run­

ner up nationally in the 1985 season. Gier­
lak brings both playing and coaching
experience to the staff, giving the Scot
players an added plus on the offensive
side of the ball. As backfield coach, he has
guided former Harlon Hill finalist Elbert
Cole and Boro All-Americans Lester Frye
and Larry Jackson.
Originally from Buffalo, New York,
Dan graduated from Edinboro with a
degree in health and physical education.
He and his wife, the former Amy Adams,
four-year-old daughter, Alexandria Ali­
cia, and two-year-old son, Daniel "Joey"
Jr., reside in Edinboro.

Edinboro, Pennsyivonio
734-5640

Saturday 9:00 a.m.-5:30 p.m.
Sunday 10:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m.

In only his second year as defensive
line coach, Cronk has already made an
immediate impact. Last season he headed
two defensive end standouts in Bryan
Lambert and Pat Schuster. Lambert was a
second team All-PSAC performer, while
Schuster earned recognition as a firstteam selection, and as an All-American.
Before coming to Edinboro, Cronk served
as the former position coach for tight
ends at Indiana University. He spent two
seasons with the Hoosiers, both of them
as a graduate assistant to head coach Bill
Mallory. His first season in Bloomington,
Cronk spent time assisting the defensive
coordinator with the linebackers, and he

also helped in the recruiting duties. While

Jack Benedict Named 1995 PSAC Media Award-Winner
Jack Benedict, sports director of
1160/WCCS Radio, Homer City, has been
selected the 1995 winner of the
Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference
(P.S A.C.) George Heaslip Media Award.
Benedict is the seventh recipient
of the annual award presented by the sports
information directors of the P.SA.C. to a
media professional for his or her efforts in
covering Conference student-athletes and
teams.
1995-96 represents Benedict’s
28th year of sportscasts of lUP football and
men’s basketball, and on television for
several years when lUP produced a weekly
football program on KBL-TV, Pittsburgh,
that was carried by the PRIME cable
network in a several-state area. He has
produced a daily morning sports show first
with WDAD, Indiana, from 1969 to 1989
and then with WCCS.
In the process of broadcasting lUP
events, from across the state and literally all
parts of the United States, Benedict has

described games involving every P.S.A.C.
university. Followers of all such teams have
invariably commented on the accurate,
objective manner in which he has reported
on the competition.
Originally from Mount Pleasant, in
Westmoreland County, he first worked seven
years (1962-69) as sports director of WCVI
Radio in neighboring Connellsville.
How well he has performed was
most recently denoted by his earning the
Pennsylvania Association of Broadcasting
award for his coverage of the 1993
lUP/North Alabama NCAA Division II
national championship football game. This
was his fourth PAB sports award; he was
also recognized in 1980 for “Best Public
Service in Pennsylvania” for a report on the
homeless.
Inducted into the Indiana County
Hall of Fame this past spring (1995), in part
as a result of his avid interest in American
Legion baseball as well, he has been heard
nationwide by reporting and interviews done

for the CBS
radio network.
As a
radio
personality,
Benedict joins
Jim Doyle of
W H L M ,
Bloomsburg,
who received
Heaslip
the
Award in 1993.
Recognized
Jack Benedict
last year was
Tom Rose, sports editor of the Washington
(Pa.) Observer-Reporter.
Other winners, in order since the
honor was initiated in 1989, have been
sports writers Ray Kienzl of the Pittsburgh
Press, Ross Nevel of the Lock Haven
Express (a former sports information
director at LHU), Skip Hutter of the
Harrisburg Patriot-News and Pete Zapadka
of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

Sports Medicine Staff and Marching Band

Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference
and
Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education
The Pennsylvania State Ath­
letic Conference (PSAC) was
organized in 1951 for the purpose
of promoting and administering
men's athletic programs within
the fourteen state teachers col­
leges in the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania.
In 1977, due to the interest
and growth of women's athletics,
the Pennsylvania State Athletic
Conference was restructured to
provide for women's programs.

1995 Sports Medicine Staff: Front row (L-R): Mary Ann Frank, Tracy Harbula, Sarah Johnson, Patty Lindh,
Robin Pusateri. Back row: Gary Hanna, Theresa Belesky, Brandyn Charlton, Kevin Heid, Dr. Richard Rahner,
Brian Page, Mike Buscemi, Julie Neiderer, George Roberts.

From its inception, each Con­
ference member selected its own
competitive division within the
National Collegiate Athletic Asso­
ciation (NCAA). In 1980, howev­
er, the presidents of the schools
voted to reclassify to Division II.
In 1983, all member institu­
tions were granted university sta­
tus as a result of Legislative Act
188 which formed the Pennsylva­
nia State System of Higher Educa­
tion (SSHE). This system now
enrolls in excess of 99,000 stu­
dents. The alumni of the SSHE
number more than 402,000,
including 287,000 in Pennsylva­
nia. The chancellor of the SSHE is
Dr. James H. McCormick.

The 1995 Edinboro University Spirit of the Scots Marching Band is under the direction of Dr. Gary S. Grant. Bruce Best is the pipe
instructor and John Fleming is the faculty advisor. Drum majors are Diann Cemeans and Chris Snyder. Tam captains are Alicia Montedoro and Jennifer Zampogna and silk captain is Dawn Smith.
This year's band is 125 strong and is proud to annoimce another exciting performance schedule. In addition to performing at
home football games, they will travel to Slippery Rock University of Pennsylvania. The Spirit of the Scots will participate in local and
regional parades, the Tournament of Bands Championship in Washington, Pennsylvania, and at the September 17 Buffalo Bills football
game.
The Edinboro University Spirit of the Scots is proud of the tradition of active student involvement and leadership. This year the
section leaders of the band are Ed Best, Sherrie Black, Michelle Bockstoce, Chad Danka, Kim Hartman, Mike Konieczko, Andy McKay,
Jeff Mortimer, Alison Reichenfeld, Rob Rohrbach, Joe Sensor, Erin Stahlman, and Aaron Strausser.

One of the largest conferences
in the nation, the PSAC is under
the leadership of a board of direc­
tors (the 14 university presidents).
The Conference also employs a
commissioner. Dr. Charles A.
'Tod' Eberle.

The PSAC sponsors 20 men's
and women's intercollegiate
sports. For men the PSAC offers
baseball, basketball, cross country,
football, golf, soccer, swimming,
tennis, track and field, and
wrestling. For women the sports
include basketball, cross country,
field hockey, lacrosse, soccer, softball, swimming, tennis, track and
field and volleyball.
Although all 14 institutions
are members of NCAA Division
II, nine schools have elected to
participate at the Division I level
in selected sports.
The PSAC is one of the
nation's most respected Division
II conferences. Annually the
PSAC places several teams in var­
ious NCAA top 20 polls. In addi­
tion, it has produced numerous
national champions over the
years.
