Edinboro University: A Look Back On 1995
Incentive is a wonderful thing especially when it conies to
motivation. Edinboro University received an NCAA Division II playoff
berth in 1993, its fourth under head coach Tom Hollman, but was left out
of the field in 1994. That absence was the incentive Coach Hollman and
his players needed to stay focused on earning their fifth bid to the presti­
gious tournament.
The team opened the 1995 with a 21-14 win over Hillsdale
University behind the running of redshirt freshman Gerald Thompson.
Thompson, who rushed for 73 yards on his first career cany, finished the
game with 133 yards and a touchdown, the TD which proved to be the
game-winner. Tony Brinson and Joe Evans also crossed the goal line in
the game.
No one could accuse the Fighting Scots of having a soft sched­
ule especially when you see the team played Appalachian State, the num­
ber-two ranked Division I-AA team, on the road. The home team opened
a 20-0 halftime lead before Edinboro lit the scoreboard with a touch­
down early in the third quarter, closing the deficit to 20-7. The Fighting
Scot defense played the game without its top tackier Pat Schuster who
missed the game with an injury.
Keeping with the tough schedule theme, Edinboro went from
the South region to the West region as the Red and Black travelled to
Portland State. Portland State, a perennial powerhouse in Division II,
had its problems with the visitors as Edinboro opened up a 19-0 lead
courtesy of two Ken McCrory field goals, a 55-yard fumble return and a
eight-yard touchdown run by Gerald Thompson. Portland State averted
the shutout with a late third quarter touchdown. Edinboro's defense forced
nine turnovers against the nationally-ranked Portland State Vikings.
Edinboro made it two in a row with a convincing 52-12 victory
over Lock Haven University. The Fighting Scots built a 38-0 lead in the
first half as Thompson tallied two touchdowns - a 42-yard run and a 75yard scoring strike off a screen pass. Quarterback Chris Hart tossed
three first-half touchdowns. Thompson added another touchdown in the
second half, helping the rookie finish with 149 yards on 13 carries. The
team gained 438 yards on the ground.
Another game, another rout for the Fighting Scots as they
handled Shippensburg by a 40-7 score on the road. The contest started
out innocently as neither team managed points in the first quarter.
Edinboro controlled the second quarter with 20 points with two rushing
touchdowns and a TD pass. Gilbert Grantlin, who caught the first-half
touchdown pass, scored his second TD of the game with a 22-yard run
off a reverse play, making the score 26-0. Both Thompson and Grantlin
added a touchdown each, completing the Edinboro scoring.
Edinboro hosted its third home game of the year when it battled
California University of Pennsylvania. Fortunately, the result was the
same for the Fighting Scots as they easily handled the Vulcans by a 31-7
margin. The visitors took the lead in the second quarter with a 32-yard
field goal by McCrory and a one-yard dive by freshman B.J. Harrison.
Thompson made the score 17-0 with a 55-yard touchdown run before
California cut the lead to 17-7. Edinboro finished the scoring with a
five-yard touchdown pass and a 42-yard interception return by Michael
Sims.
In keeping with its theme, Edinboro travelled for yet another
game as Slippery Rock University was week seven's destination. The
team improved its record to 3-1 on the road with a 22-13 victory over the
Rock. The home team Jumped out to a 7-0 lead before Edinboro an­
swered with 16 straight points courtesy of two touchdown passes by Hart
and a field goal by McCrory. Brinson opened the the second half scoring
with a one-yard dive but Slippery Rock retaliated with its own scoring
drive, closing the deficit to 22-13. Edinboro's defense shut down the
Slippery Rock offense with seven sacks and only 17 rushing yards in the

time lead as Michael Sims intercepted a pass and raced 26 yards for the
team's first touchdown. A fake reverse play resulted in a 57-yard touch­
down pass from Hart to Grantlin. A fumble set up Edinboro's next touch­
down as the defense recovered the miscue at the five-yard line. Brinson
scored on a one-yard run three plays later making the score 21-10. lUP
came back with a touchdown and two-point conversion to pull within a
field goal, 21-18, but Hart tossed another touchdown pass to give the
Scots a 28-18 lead.
The ninth game was never really in question as Edinboro bur­
ied Mansfield by a 42-0 count. Brinston put the 'Boro on top with a 15yard touchdown run while Grantlin doubled the score with an 85-yard
punt return. Hart and Harrison each rushed for a touchdown to give the
home team a 28-0 halftime lead. On the day, Edinboro gained 500 total
yards including 390 yards on the ground. Brinson turned in one of his
best days with 127 yards while Harrison finished with 124 yards.
Edinboro captured its first PSAC-West Division title since the
1989 campaign with a 28-6 victory over Clarion University. Onee again,
the Scots followed their usual script by building a big lead and letting
the defense keep the opposition in check. Brinson was responsible for
the team's first two touehdowns with a five-yard run and a 28-yard recep­
tion, giving EU a 14-0 halftime lead. The score remained 14-0 until
Thompson tallied two touchdown on runs of two and 42 yards. Clarion
spoiled the shutout bid with a touehdown late in the final period. Th­
ompson finished the game with 179 yards on 30 carries.
The Fighting Scots posted a 4-1 reeord on the road this year
with that one loss eoming to a Division I-AA opponent. The team did not
lose a single game to a Division II opponent during 1995. Edinboro
posted nine wins for the first time since 1990, also an NCAA playoff
year. No matter how you look at it, the Fighting Scots enjoyed one of its
finest seasons in the school's history. The team is now ready for the
second season, a season which kicks Off today.

game.
No game is as important in the PSAC West Division than the
Edinboro-Indiana, Pa. pairing. This year had more implications such as
the Division title as well as inside position to an NCAA playoff berth.
The Scots used two unconventional scoring plays to take a 14-10 half­

Head Coach Tom Hollman discusses strategy with Chris Hart

University of New Haven: A Look Back On 1995
Before every season, teams come together and set goals for the
upcoming year. Some hope for a .500 record, some aspire to a winning
record while others wish for a national championship. The University of
New Haven football program set only one goal when it first met back in
August and that was simply to return to the NCAA Division n playoffs.
At 2:37 on November 12th, 1995 that goal was realized when
the NCAA Division II football committee named the Chargers as one of
the 16 teams in the 1995 championship playoffs. New Haven finished
the regular season with a number five national ranking and a number
two rating in the Northeast Region.
The goal could not have been realized without a total team
effort. That may seem like a cliche but nonetheless it is true in regard to
the 1995 Chaigers. In the past, offense always came to mind when you
spoke of the University of New Haven football program. While the of­
fense experienced a great deal of success during the regular season, the
defense and special teams played an equal role in the team's 9-0-1 record.
Consider that the special teams blocked seven kicks during the
regular season, five punts, an extra point attempt and a field goal try.
The extra point block came in the Chargers 36-36 tie with West Chester,
fully illustrating the importance of that missed point. The field goal
would have given Indiana, Pa. a nine point lead with two minutes left in
the game but the block kept the Chargers within six points. The Blue
and Gold scored a touchdown to win the game with eight seconds re­
maining in the game by a 20-19 count, a win not possible if the field goal
went through the uprights. The five blocked punts all resulted in points,
often putting games out of reach or placing the Chargers in position to
win the game.
Defensively, New Haven terrorized the opposition all season
long with its relentless pass attack, bone-jarring hits and stifling defense
against the rush. The Chargers were ranked among the top ten all season
long in rushing defense, reaching as high as eighth with an 83.8 average.
The defense allowed just two rushing touchdown all year long and did
not yield a score on the ground in the final five games of the year.
The defense forced 30 turnovers, sacked the quarterback 40
times and did not allow a point over a 12-quarter span which translated
in 205 scoreless minutes. It allowed 10 points or less in five of 10 games
and posted back-to-back shutouts for the first time in the school's 23-year
history. The team allowed 129 points in 10 games this year which is the
fourth lowest total in school history. It is the least amount of points
surrendered in 15 years since the 1980 team allowed 116 points in 10
contests.
While the special teams and defense kept the opposition off
the scoreboard, the offense provided the necessary points to win the game.
The Chargers tallied 311 points in 10 games this year, tallying 20 or
more points in every game and 30 or more points in five of the team's
contests. New Haven crossed the goal line 37 times during the year with
23 coming through the air and 14 off the run.
Balance was a key in this New Haven offense as the team called
354 running plays and 313 passing plays, averaging better than 330 total
yards per game. The emergence of the team's running game was instru­
mental in the late season success as the Chargers gained better than 100
yards on the ground in each of the last five games The late surge helped
the team average better than 110 rushing yards per game for the season.
The passing game was as balanced as any New Haven attack in recent
memory as four receivers caught four or more touchdowns and as many
as 12 players caught at least one pass this year. With this in mind, one
can see that this 9-0-1 Charger team enjoyed one of its best seasons in
history.
The Chargers opened the season three home games in their
first four contests, a welcome change from last year's seven road games.
The first three games of the season saw New Haven playing Pennsylva­
nia State Athletic Conference schools, all of which would be in the run­
ning for an NCAA playoff spot. The Blue and Gold started the year with
a 27-20 victory over Bloomsburg University, highlighted by two touch­
down passes from Jesse Showerda and a 100-yard interception return by
Brian Oliver. Oliver's interception set a school record and provided the
Chaigers with what proved to be the game-winning points.
New Haven improved to 2-0 with a 28-19 win over Kutztown
University as senior Bobby Barnette returned a punt 55 yards for a touch­
down and later caught a five-yard touchdown pass in the win. The Charg­
ers made it three in a row against PSAC schools when they traveled to
Indiana, Pa. and posted a 20-19 win. Tyrone Seabrooks caught his first

touchdown pass as a Charger with eight seconds remaining in the game
to provide the winning margin. Gene Adair also kicked two field goals
in the game, a 46-yarer and a 38-yarder.
The Blue and Gold avenged one of its losses from a year ago
by knocking off Abilene Christian University, a 33-7 victory at Dodds
Stadium. The game was never in question as New Haven scored the first
33 points of the contest induing three touchdown passes from Showerda.
After a week off. New Haven played its only shootout of the season when
it tied West Chester University, 36-36. UNH trailed 21-0 before rallying
to tie the score at 21-21 early in the third quarter. West Chester an­
swered with 15 straight points forcing the Chargers to come back once
again and tie the game at 36-36. Both teams missed a field goal in the
final two minutes of the game. Showerda threw three touchdowns in the
game while Jerry Boggs and Robert Clark each rushed for a TD.
Head Coach Tony Sparano took his team on the road once again,
travelling to Richmond for a matchup with Virginia Union University.
Although the game was close early with New Haven holding a 13-3 half­
time lead, UNH tallied 17 straight points in the second half to put the
game out of reach. Ron Jenkins rushed for 107 yards and scored his first
touchdown in a New Haven uniform. Adair added three more field goals
in the game, giving him five through the first six games.
The Chargers battled cross-town rival Southern Connecticut in
a downpour the following week with UNH winning the game 24-6. South­
ern Connecticut took the opening kickoff and scored a touchdown but
New Haven's defense shut down the Owls' offense from that point. Mean­
while, Showerda tossed two TDs and Boggs ran for another TD.
That Southern Connecticut touchown would be the last points
allowed by the New Haven defense for 205minutes as UNH shutout
Knoxville College (50-0) and Bowie State University (34-0). Boggs
rushed for two TDs and Showerda tossed two more in the win over Knox­
ville while Michael Clark provided the spark against Bowie State with
an 85-yard kickoff return for a touchdown..
New Haven completed the unbeaten season with a 23-13 win
at American International College as Jenkins rushed for 153 yards on 36
carries and scored a touchdown in the win. Chris Powanda blocked his
second punt of the year resulting in a safety and Oliver returned a fumble
41 yards for another touchdown, helping with the victory.
Today, Head Coach Tony Sparano and his team realize their
goal of playing in the NCAA Division II playoffs. Now, the fun begins.

Toward a Common Goal

TMt

FOOTBALL FOUNDATION, INC.®

hat is the NCAA?
The question could be answered
simply by saying “National Collegiate
Athletic Association,” but in reality the
NCAA is much more than four words.
It is also much more than a staff work­
ing in Overland Park, Kansas, on admin­
istrative details of America’s intercollegiate
athletics programs.
To say that the NCAA is a staff or a
group of people is to misunderstand not
only what the NCAA is, but what its goals
and objectives are.
In reality, the NCAA is composed of
some 1,000 colleges and universities across
the United States. The NCAA, in its truest
sense, is every member institution working
together for the common good of all. It is
democracy in action. All rules, all policies,
all procedures, even the directions and
goals of the NCAA are determined by the
colleges and universities working and
voting together in a common body.
As with any organization made up of
individuals or member institutions, the
requirements in any given area are con­
tinually changing in response to the desires
of the membership. But the goal is always
the same — a sound mind, a sound body, a
spirit that is unafraid and a clean sports
program that develops those qualities
individually, institutionally and nationally.
Perhaps no area of the NCAA comes
under more inspection than the enforce­
ment program. Yet, even there, the NCAA
is responsive to the needs and concerns of
the individual institutions working to­
gether for what they perceive to be the
common good. The colleges and univer­
sities make the rules. The NCAA staff,
working under the direction of the colleges
and universities, simply administers the
programs designed by the members. And
it is the Committee on Infractions, which
is comprised of college administrators
from around the country, that determines
sanctions levied against fellow members.
Just as integrity is the key to an aca­
demic program, it also is vital to healthy
competition between NCAA member in­
stitutions. The colleges and universities
seek to create an atmosphere in which all
institutions have an equal chance to recruit
America’s outstanding student-athletes. It
is then up to member schools to help the
individual student-athletes be as gopd as

they can be, both in the classroom and in
their athletics endeavors.
For all of the attention it receives, the
enforcement program is but one small
part of the NCAA’s total concern. The
NCAA administers 79 championships in
three divisions in 21 sports. More than
18,000 men and women student-athletes
compete annually in these events, designed
to determine national champions.
Other programs under the auspices of
the NCAA include the National Youth
Sports Program. NYSP is a unique
summer program that offers sports skills
instruction, competition, improved physi­
cal fitness, and enrichment opportunities
for economically disadvantaged youth
between the ages of 10 and 16.
The NCAA conducts free Youth Edu­
cation through Sports (YES) clinics in
many sports, annually providing thou­
sands of youngsters expert instruction
from the best collegiate coaches, as well as
important information about academics
and substance-abuse prevention.
The NCAA and the NCAA Foundation
also administer several scholarship pro­
grams that benefit not only deserving
student-athletes but also students in
general. The NCAA Postgraduate Schol­
arship Program has distributed more than
$5.7 million to some 2,500 student-athletes
for full-time graduate study; two Walter

Byers Postgraduate Scholarship winners
annually receive $10,000 renewable sti­
pends; the NCAA Ethnic Minority En­
hancement Program and the NCAA
Women’s Enhancement Program each
provide scholarship awards to qualified
individuals for postgraduate study in
sports administration; and the NCAA
makes available grants to undergraduate
student-athletes who have exhausted their
institutional financial aid opportunity
and who wish to complete their under­
graduate degrees.
More information about these scholar­
ship programs is available from the NCAA
administration and finance group.
The NCAA also sponsors one of Ameri­
ca’s foremost honors programs, which is
designed to recognize yesterday’s and
today’s top athletes, and the contributions
of intercollegiate athletics as a whole to
the country and society.
It has been said, and rightfully so, that
sports is but a microcosm of society.
Never before has it been more true, for
sport and for the NCAA.
However, the goal of the NCAA is still
the same—America’s colleges and univer­
sities working together for the common
good of higher education, and the young
men and women who study and compete
for NCAA member institutions.

Today’s Game
NCAA Division II Playoffs - First Round
Edinboro University Vs. University of New Haven
Jess Dow Field - Southern Connecticut State University - November 18,1995
Edinboro
Last
Week: The Fighting Scots im­
proved to 9-1 overall and 9-0
against Division II teams with
its 28-6 victory over Clarion
University in the regular-season
finale. The two teams played a
scoreless first quarter before the
Scots received two touchdowns
from Tony Brinson, a five-yard
run with 8:51 remaining in the
half and a 28-yard touchdown
reception from Chris Hart with
5:22 remaining. The score
remainied 14-0 after three quar­
ters before Gerald Thompson
(Pictured Right) took over
with two rushing touchdowns in
the fourth period, a two-yard
dive and a 42-yard run which
improved the Edinboro advan­
tage to 28-0. Clarion averted
the shutout with a 14-yard
touchdown pass with 4:27 left
in the game. Thompson ran 30
times for 173 yards and two touchdowns, followed by Brinson's 32 yards on
12 carries. Quarterback Chris Hart completed 10 of 22 passes with one
touchdown and an interception. Terry Roberts caught a team-high four passes
for 68 yards while Gilbert Grantlin snagged three passes for 29 yards. The
defense held Clarion to 242 total yards, including a mere 55 rushing yards.
Edinboro Offense: The Fighting Scots have a balanced attack
which includes a 1,500 -yard passer and a 1,000 yard rusher. The team has
enjoyed most of its success on the ground, averaging 236.6 yards per game.
Most of the running attack comes from freshman Gerald Thompson who
collected 1,191 yards on 205 carries with nine touchdowns. The redshirt
freshman gained 173 yards against Clarion last week, surpassed only by his
176-yard performance against California, Pa. earlier in the year. Junior Tony
Brinson provides an excellent compliment to Thompson, gaining 622 yards
on 130 carries with seven touchdowns. The passing game is anchored by
quarterback Chris Hart, a junior, who has completed 50.4 percent of his
passes to date (112 completions, 222 attempts) for 1,574 yards. He has had
problems with the interception, tossing 15 in 10 games two more than his 13
touchdown passes. His favorite targets are senior Gilbert Grantlin and
junior Quentin Ware-Bey. Grantlin has 37 receptions for 684 yards (18.5
ypc) with a team-high eight touchdowns. Ware-Bey has yet to score a touch­
down but has 21 catches for 281 yards. Hart uses his running backs as poten­
tial receivers as Brinsonhas 17 catches for 200 yards and two TDs while
Thompson has seven grabs for 97yards and a touchdown. An important part
of this ofiense is the experience up front as the offensive line has four seniors
and a junior among the starters. The front five averages 6-feet, four-inches
and 275 pounds. Overall, Edinboro averages 394 total yards (236.6 rushing,
157.4 passing) and 30.4 points per game.
Edinboro Defense: Scoring against the Fighting Scot defense is
not easy especially in the first half Edinboro has given up 128 points in 10
games, one point less than the Chargers defense, but only 44 points in the
first half, an average of 4.4 points in the first two quarters. Edinboro has
given up seven or less points in five of its 10 games including just six points
in the last two contests. Linebackers Michael Sims and Emery Martin are
at the heart of the team's defense with 88 and 70 tackles, respectively. Sims
not only leads the team in total tackles but also has a team-high five intercep­
tions. Ron Allen has 76 tackles with 10 pass break-ups and four intercep­
tions. The defensive line has terrorized the opponent's quarterback all
seasonlong, registering 27 of the team's 34 sacks to date. Pat Schuster, a
senior defensive end, has 13 sacks along with 80 total tackles and 12 tackles
for loss. Senior end Bryan Lambert and junior tackle Jeff Traversy are
tied for second with seven sacks each. As a team, the Fighting Scots yielded
246.9 total yards (98.7 rushing, 148.2 passing) and 12.8 points per game.

New Haven Last Week: The Chargers completed their third un­
beaten season in the last four years with a 23-13 win at American Interna­
tional College, giving the Blue and Gold a 9-0-1 record. New Haven wasted
no time in taking the lead, driving 80 yards on 15 plays on its first possession
for a touchdown. Ron Jenkins (Bronx, N.Y.) capped the five-minute drive
with a seven-yard touchdown run. The Chai^ers special teams struck again
as Chris Powanda went up the middle to block a punt out of the endzone for
a safety, making the score 9-0. Bill Woods boosted the score to 16-0 with a
12-yard touchdown catch with 8:07 left in the first half On AIC's next pos­
session, quarterback Matt Sohn's was hit from behind, fumbled the ball which
was picked up by Brian Oliver and returned the fumble 41 yards for a TD,
giving UNH a commanding 23-0 lead. However, the AIC drove straight down
field on their next possession and scored on a 24-yard touchdown catch by
Matt Charron with 3:39 remaining. New Haven seemed unphased by the
score as the offense marched down field inside the AIC five-y^d line on its
next possesion. Unfortunately, defensive back Billy Watson stepped in front
of a quick pass from quarterback Jesse Showerda and intercepted the
pass,returning it 98 yards ro cut the lead to 23-13. The defense took over
from that point as neither offense managed any points in ^e second half
New Haven Offense: For the fourth time in the last five games,
Ron Jenkins surpassed the 100-yard mark as he gained 153 yards on 36
carries, only one carry shy of Roger Graham's record set last year. The senior,
who gained 666 yards in the last five games, finished the regular season with
854 yards, the sixth best single season total in school history. The passing
game continues to flourish as quarterback Jesse Showerda threw another
touchdown pass last week, raising his total to 22 for the year, the fourth best
single season total in school history. He has completed 195 of 328 pass
attempts (.595 completion percentage) for 2,098 yards. Showerda continued
his even distribution among the receivers with Bobby Barnette (Picture
Below) eading the team with 59 receptions (582 yards) and Joe Sporldn
(516 yards) and Aaron Gagnon (404 yards) tied for second with 43 recep­
tions each. Four receivers have four or more touchdowns including a teamhigh six by Sporkin. Barnette, Gagnon and Tyrone Seabrooks each have
four TDs. Overall, the ofiense averages 340.4 (120.2 rushing, 220.2 passing)
yards and 31.1 points per game.
New Haven Defense: It took an outstanding diving catch by Matt
Charron to end the Chargers'
defense shutout streak at two
games and 12 quarters as the
receiver made the catch with
3:39 left in the second quarter.
The streak, which started after
a first-quarter touchdown by
Southern Connecticut on Octo­
ber 20, included back-to-back
shutouts for the first time in
school history and a span of
205-plus minutes without yield­
ing a point. The defensive unit
did not yield a rushing touch­
down for the fifth straight game,
allowing just two rushing TDs
in 10 games (vs. Bloomsburg in
game one and vs. West Chester
in game five). The team forced
three more turnovers last week,
bringing the season total to 30
(16 interceptions, 14 fumbles).
Linebacker Scott Riggs contin­
ues to lead the team with 94
tackles followed closely by fel­
low
linebacker
Shane
McNeeley with 83 stops. Brian Oliver scored his second touchdown of the
season last week with a 41-yard fumble return, the first coming in the season
opener with a 100-yard interception return. Michael Brown ranks third among
his teammates with 72 tackles. Overall, the defense surrendered 276.7 total
yards (83.4 rushing, 193.3 passing) and 12.9 points per game.

The University Of New Haven
When you step onto the UNH campus, one of the first things
you'll notice is its diversity. Our students, who come from throughout the
U.S. as well as more than 50 foreign countries, are from urban, suburban
and rural locales. We offer a wide range of quality academic programs.
And our distinguished faculty represent many years of experience both in
the classroom and in business. At UNH, you'll be able to meet your
educational goals as well as learn from your fellow students.
Founded in 1920 in New Haven, the university has a history of
continuous growth and development. Initially offering only associate
degrees in three areas of study, we've grown into a major coeducational,
independent university with undergraduate and graduate degree programs
in nearly 100 areas of study.
F ive ofour six schools - Arts & Sciences; Business; Engineering;
Hotel, Restaurant & Tourism Administration; Public Safety and Profes­
sional Studies - offer more than 90 undergraduate degree programs. The
Graduate School, our sixth school, offers a variety of graduate level
programs including a doctoral in management systems.
The School of Arts & Sciences includes the Arts, English,
Communications, History, Political Science, Mathematics, Natural Sci­
ences and Social Sciences. The School of Business encompasses students
with interests in Accounting, Business Administration, Communications
and Marketing, Economics and Finance. International Business and Public
Management. The school also includes the Management of Sports
Industries major.
The School of Engineering includes programs for Chemistry,
Chemical Engineering, Civil & Enviromental Engineering, Computer
Science, Electrical & Computer Engineering, Industrial Engineering,
Materials Technology and Mechnical Engineering. The School of Hotel,
Restaurant & Tourism Administration prepares students in General Di­
etetics, Hotel & Restaurant Management as well as Tourism & Travel
Administration.
More than 90 percent of UNHs full-time faculty hold terminal
degrees - usually Ph.Ds, the highest available in their specialties. Many
also have backgrounds as working professionals and bring practical
experience to the classroom. With only 1,500 full-time day undergraduate
students, you will be a name rather than a number at UNH. The average
class size is 20, giving professors and students an excellent chance to
interact. No course has more than 70 students and only a handful have more
than 40.
Every college tells you "college is what you make it" because it
is true. Getting involved in student government, athletics, social clubs or
residence hall council activities, not only makes your academic experience
more interesting and enjoyable, but also expands leadership capabilities
and provides soimd, practical experience for life after college. Clubs and
organizations, which reflect and respond to student interests, are active at
the university and are open to all students.
The Day Student Government is the major student coordinating
group for most campus activities and the principal liason between oiu

students and administration. Activities include Parents' Day wiiich starts
things off in the Fall. Homecoming Weekend - for both current students
and alumni - features a pep rally, football game, tailgate parties, banner and
float contests and music for all ages. May Day, held each Spring, is a

When you feel the need for a change from the campus setting, you
can head for the city of New Haven, just 10 minutes from UNH. Dubbed
the "Gateway to New England", New Haven is a deep harbor seaport, a
maj or art center and a manufacturing center. It's also a college town - UNH
is one of seven colleges in the immediate vicinity.
One ofNew Haven's biggest assets is its active cultural commu­
nity with live performances at the Shubert and Palace Theaters and at the
Long Wharf and Yale Repertory Theatres. Music in New Haven ranges
fi’om internationally knowjazz personalities to the New Haven Symphony.
You'll find concerts at the Coliseum featuring rock and soul groups, and
performances by local bands at area clubs. For professional sports
enthusiasts, the professional teams of Hartford, New York and Boston are
just a few hours away.
Leisure activities abound. Choose from outdoor concerts or
indoor tennis, whitewater canoeing, windsurfing or stock car racing. It's all
near UNH. Our campus is minutes away from miles of Connecticut
beaches. Cape Cod is only a two-hour drive. There's easy access to
downhill and cross country skiing at upstate ski areas.
The University of New Haven athletic program has established
itself as one of the finest Division II programs in the nation. In 1992-93
alone, the football, volleyball and baseball teams advanced to their
respective NCAA tournament while five teams were nationally ranked
throughout the season.
The athletic department fields teams in baseball, men's and
women's basketball, cross country, football, men's lacrosse, men's soccer,
softball, women's tennis, track and field as well as women's volleyball.
Women's soccer just finished its first season of competition this year after
spending 1992 as a club. Almost every team has earned a Division II Top
20 ranking over the past three years.
The North Campus is the site for all New Haven varsity home
games. Robert B. Dodds Stadium is the home of the Charger football,
soccer and lacrosse teams while Frank Vieira Field is the place for baseball
action. The basketball teams play their home games in the Charger
