Edinboro hopes to finish the sea­ son as it began, with a winning streak. The Fighting Scots opened the season with a three-game winning streak, and a win today against Lock Haven would mean a season-ending two-game winning streak.

Renowned as a defensive genius, Tepper has worked on the staffs of some of the top programs in the country, including Virginia Tech, Colorado and LSU. But his greatest notoriety came at Illinois, where he coached from 198996. The defensive coordinator and later assistant head coach from 1988-91, Tepper was appointed the Fighting Illini head coach on December 13, 1991, just prior to the team's appearance in the John Hancock Sun Bowl. He would go on to guide the Illini to two more bowl games while posting a 25-31-2 ledger. At the end of his third season at Edinboro, Tapper's career mark stands at 38-49-2. Malt lather (PUUR State‘92) is in his third season as the Lock Haven head coach. He owns a 10-22 mark. Luther rates as one of the youngest coaches on the Division II level at 32. Before taking over as the Bald Eagle head coach, he served as the team's defensive coordinator, among other duties. He has also coached at Juniata. THE EDIHBOHO-IOCK HAVEH SEHIES Harrison Stadium.

Williams got the Fighting Scots on the scoreboard just 44 seconds into the contest on a three-yard run. The score came two plays after Lincoln Bufalino returned the opening kickoff 72 yards to the LHU 14. Munson came off the bench and scored the first of his two touchdowns on a five-yard run midway through the second period. Sean McNicholas booted a 26-ayrd field goal as time expired to make it 16-0 at the half. While domi­ nating on the scoreboard. Lock Haven held a huge advantage in total yards, 241 to 84. Jonathan Miller booted a 27-yard field goal for Lock Haven, the lone points in the third quarter, but Edinboro answered with Munson's 17-yard TD run. Williams ran for 128 yards on 29 carries, with Munson adding 112 yards on just 10 car­ ries. Jeff Richardson paced a solid defensive effort with a pair of interceptiions. Lock Haven committed five turnovers, including four interceptions, and a punt blocked. LAST WEEK fOH THE FIGHTIHG SCOTS Edinboro turned the back the clock to September during last week's second half against California(Pa.). Trailing the homestanding Vulcans, 22-10, at the half, the Fighting Scots appeared on their way to a record-tying seventh straight loss. Instead, Edinboro dominated the second half, scoring on its final three possessions to pull away for a 38-22 win. Justin Lipscomb started the rally with a 19-yard touchdown pass from Justin Bouch. The Scots appeared to take the lead on Elliott Page's 59-yard interception return. A penal­ ty called most of the return back^j-out it didn't matter as Alonzo Roebuck broke off a 44-yard scoring run. The burst not only gave Edinboro a 24-22 lead, but put Roebuck over the 1,000-yard rush­ ing mark for the season. Brandon Munson followed with an 18yard scoring run, and J.D. Baker capped the comeback with a 10yard run for his first career TD. Roebuck finished with 150 yards, his sixth 100-yard game in the last seven outings. Munson added 97 yards. After giving up 229 yards at the half, the Scot defense held Cal to five first downs and 103 yards the rest of the way. LAST WEEK FOB THE OALO EAGLES Lock Haven held a 17-14 lead over Clarion after three quarters, but the Bald Eagles finally succumbed to a Clarion ground game that ran for 468 yards. A lively fourth quarter saw 34 points scor^ in the 34-31 Clarion win. Tim Storino passed for a pair of touch­ downs in the last five minutes, 52 yards to Marcus Burkley and 11 yards to Scott Anderson. The Bald Eagles also got rushing touch­ downs from Robert Walker, Justin Marshall and David Mottin. Lock Haven finished with a season-high 411 yards, with Storino complet­ ing 15 of 31 passes for 290 yards. Burkley caught 5 passes for 124 yards, while Marshall led the ground game with 11 carries for 61 yards.

Tepper inherited an Edinboro program which had won just eleven games in the previous three seasons. The Scots have shown consistent improvement in “Coach Tep’s” two years. The 2000 season brought a 5-6 record, matching the Edinboro record for wins by a firstyear head coach, and a fifth place PSAC finish. Three of the losses, however, were lopsided. In 2001, Edinboro finished with a deceiv­ ing 4-6 record. The Fighting Scots were competitive in every con­ test and finished third in the PSAC. The victories included a stun­ ning 14-7 upset over 17th-ranked Slippery Rock. Background Tepper, a native of Keystone, PA, returned to the Division II level after coaching at Division I institutions for almost thirty years. He is renowned as a defensive coaching genius, with a resume that includes three Butkus Award honorees and an Outland Trophy winner. Tepper's list of standouts include Bruce Smith, John Holecek, Simeon Rice, Kevin Hardy, Brad Hopkins, "We had an outstanding pool of candidates to choose from, but Lou's integrity, coaching back­ ground and national notoriety stood out above the rest We feel Edinboro provides the opportunity to be one of the top programs in the PSAC, and look at Lou Tepper as the coach to restore our program to that level." Dr. Frank Pogue Jr. President, Edinboro University MacFarland, and Ken Dilger, all current NFL standouts. In addi­ tion, he has worked with some of the top head coaches in the country, including Bill Dooley at Virginia Tech, Bill McCartney at Colorado, John Mackovic at Illinois and Gerry DiNardo at LSU. "Being a native of western Pennsylvania, it has been neat to be a head coach again and to be a head coach in this environment," Tepper related following his first season at Edinboro. "I've recruit­ ed western Pennsylvania for half of my career. It’s a joy to be back home." Tepper completed his second full season as the defensive coor­ dinator at Louisiana State University in 1999. He began his tenure with the Tigers on December 15, 1997, helping LSU to a 27-9 Independence Bowl win over Notre Dame. All told, he has served as a defensive coordinator for 19 of his 35 years in the coaching profession. That stood until the 2000 NFL Draft when Penn State’s Courtney Brown and Lavar Arrington went one-two. Big Ten Head Coach Pinsburgh The 56-year-old Tepper was appointed the head coach at the University of Illinois on December 13, 1991, just prior to the team's appearance in the John Hancock Sun Bowl. He replaced Mackovic, who left for the head coaching position at the University of Texas. During his five year stint as the Fighting mini head coach, Tepper compiled a record of 25-31-2, including two more bowl appearances. He guided Illinois to a pair of wins over Ohio State, including one at Columbus; the school's first victoiy in Ann i^bor against Michigan in 27 years; and three consec­ utive wins over rival Iowa by a combined score of 122-17. Just as impressive, Tepper graduated 91 percent of his seniors. Tepper joined the Illinois program in 1988, serving as the defensive coordinator for four seasons ^d assistant head coach for two years. In his nine seasons at Illinois, he helped the program to six bowl invitations, one Big Ten title and top ten rankings m the AP and UPI polls. He was honored as the Big Ten's top defensive assistant coach in 1990 by The Sporting News. His defensive units annually ranked among the best m the country, finishing IGth in 1989, 14th in 1993, ninth in 1994, and 21st in 1995. Tepper’s 1992 Illini squad finished 6-5-1, suffering a 27-17 defeat to Hawaii in the Holiday Bowl. Illinois went in to Columbus and upset Ohio State, 18-16, and posted a 22-22 tie against Michigan in Ann Arbor. While his ‘93 edition finished 5-6, that included a 24-21 win in Ann Arbor against the Wolverines. The Illini made it back to postseason play in 1994, handing East Carolina a 30-0 whitewash­ ing in the Liberty Bowl. The ‘94 squad finished 7-5, again upset­ ting one of the elite in the Big Ten. And once ^ain it was on the road, as Illinois shocked Ohio State, 24-10, in Columbus behind Butkus Award winner Dana Howard. Tepper began his coaching career as a graduate assistant at Pittsburgh in 1967, then moved on to the University of New Hampshire from 1968-71, coaching the running backs pd line­ backers before becoming the defensive coordinator. His next stop was the College of William & Mary, where he joined former New Hampshire head coach Jim Root as the defensive coordinator from 1972-77. The 1976 William & Mary squad posted the school's best record in thirty years.

Virginia Tecb In 1978, Virginia Tech head coach Bill Dooley hired Tepper as his linebackers coach. Tepper helped build the Hokies into a con­ sistent bowl contender with a defense that annually ranked among the nation's top ten. He stayed at Virginia Tech froni 1978-82, working with Outland Trophy winner and Buffalo Bills great Bruce Smith, among others. The 1980 Hokie edition played Miami(FL) in the Peach Bowl. Colorado Tepper joined Bill McCartney's staff at Colorado in 1983, serving as the defensive coordinator and assistant head coach until departing for Illinois in 1988. Tepper helped turn around a Buffalo defense which ranked No. 100 nationally in yards allowed prior to his arrival, to one which was as high as 11th in Division I in total defense. He earned the title of assistant head coach to McCartney his final two seasons, and helped the Buffaloes to the 1985 Freedom Bowl and the 1986 Blue Bonnet Bowl. Among the assis­ tant coaches at Colorado was Gerry DiNardo, who would later bring Tepper in to direct his LSU defense. Lou Tepper has brought plenty of intensity and determination, not to mention a winning attitude, to the Edinboro sideline.

We set our goals high, and with all the internation­ al strife and economic shortcomings, we did not necessarily attain our goals. But, it was heart­ warming to see the response of our supporters during such difficult times. fll be the first to admit that we, too, were impacted by the events of the year. But the fact that we did prosper says volumes for the loyal support of Fighting Scot Athletic followers. Allow me to take a moment and thank everyone for your generosity in 2001-02. The Edinboro athletic program continued to grow last season with the addition of Adaptive Athletics to our department. It seems hard to believe, but we embark on our Fifth Annual Athletic Fund Drive, and we are energized by the commitment of our coach­ es, our student-athletes, and most importantly, the many individuals and businesses who have come on board in the first four years. Over those years we've strived to raise funds through Endowed Scholarships, Gifts-inKind, Securities, Trusts and Bequests. The for­ mation of the Hall of Fame Scholarship has been very exciting, with the Hall of Fame mem­ bership up to 140. This endeavor is off to a fly­ ing start. Once again, with no state appropriations for athletic scholarships, we depend on fund raising events such as the Annual Athletic Fund Drive to supplement our athletic programs. Our summer camp season continues to be the main source of our financial development, but we cannot maintain our level of excellence without your support. Although still funded well below the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) allowable limit, our athletic scholarship program attempts to create the best education­ al and athletic opportunities for our studentathletes. At Edinboro University, we are quite proud of our past successes and rich tradition, but we cannot rest upon past accomplishments while our sister-institutions pass us by in the world of athletic fund raising. Once again, we look forward to hearing from you soon. Please feel free to contact my office with any questions about our fund drive. I entertain any recommendations or sugges­ tions which would better our University and its athletic department.

Each spring, members of the Fighting Scot Booster Club will conduct a national and community-wide fund raising campaign to support the cost of athletic operating expenses. While student activity fees cover a portion of operating expenses, private funding is crucial in maintaining the level of excellence the Fighting Scot programs have enjoyed in recent years. Your membership affords Edinboro University and its athletic program the opportunity to offer a quality athletic and academic experience to it$’'student-athletes. State appropri­ ations are not allotted for scholarships, making the Booster Club and the departmental fund raising efforts the sole means of raising money for the athletic scholarships.

Gunnels deflected Jimmy Addison’s pass incomplete on a Clemson two-point conversion attempt to preserve a 17-16 Gamecock victory in one of the most thrilling games in the nation’s most underrated college football series. As South Carolina prepares to visit Clemson for the 100th meeting in the series on Nov. 23, the story of the film of Gunnels’ critical play speaks volumes about the importance of the series in South Carolina, which Clemson leads, 59-36-4. “The stands were totally full and the sidelines were full, too,” Gunnels said. “The game film camera didn’t even [capture the play] because the fans were in the way. It’s always been big, and you had the extra sense of the rivalry when you played in the game.” The rivalry isn’t often mentioned among the greatest in the nation because of the state’s small size. South Carolina’s population is just four million, so its biggest athletic rivalry often escapes the atten­ tion of national television executives and isn’t much of a factor on Madison Avenue. But inside South Carolina, the passion for this rivalry approaches fanaticism. Notre Dame-Southern California and Ohio State-Michigan BY KEN draw more national attention, but those rivalries involve campuses that are isolated from each othgf by distance. Fans of Florida and Florida State work and play side by side in the Sunshine State, but their attention is diverted by nine profes­ sional sports franchises within the state. Clemson coach Tommy Bowden said Auburn-Alabama and Mississippi-Mississippi State are the only rivalries that can compare to Clemson-South Carolina. “It’s just a really, really good rivalry,” Bowden said. “1 think the uniqueness of it has a lot to do with the environment here.” A sign that reportedly was in the back of a van on the way to the 1984 game—“Mixed Marriage: He’s a Tiger, She’s a Gamecock”—summed up the effect of the series in many South Carolina households. The rivalry that divides families also creates a difficult line for politicians to walk. During the early 1900s, South Carolina governors often sat with Gamecock fans during one half and Clemson fans in the other half, making a point of crossing the field at halftime to show their neutrality. More recently. Governor jim Hodges angered some Clemson fans when he entertained football recruit Brandon jeflries of Shelby, N.C., at the Governor’s Mansion during a visit to South Carolina in February. South Carolina reported the violation of NCAA rules and did not receive major sanctions. But Clemson boosters made TYSIAC TOUCHDOWN ILLUSTRATED jokes at South Carolina alumnus Hodges’ expense because they tradition that marked the biggest event of the state fair until 1959. perceived that Hodges was favoring the Gamecocks. “You’ve got two Although weekday games are common now. Big Thursday was state schools now,” Bowden warned shortly afterward. a special occurrence in college football until ’59. South Carolinians South Carolina coach Lou Holtz witnessed the Ohio State- took great pride in the mid-October Thursday outings at the Michigan rivalry as an assistant to Woody Hayes with the Buckeyes Fairgrounds. Many schools and shops were closed on what became in 1968. He also has been a part of Notre Dame’s series with a sort of unofficial holiday in the state. Southern Cal and Miami, a rivalry that was so bitter that it was “I always liked to go to Carolina,” said former Clemson discontinued after the 1990 season. quarterback Charlie Bussey, who played in three Big Thursday But in three seasons with the Gamecocks, he has developed a games in the 1950s. “It was a big game. It was almost a bowl profound respect for the Clemson-South Carolina series. The game atmosphere.” Gamecocks lost their first two games against Clemson under Holtz Bobby Robinson, who was Clemson’s athletics director for 17 years before winning, 20-15, in 2001. before retiring this past June, attended Big Thursday games with his “I’ve been involved in a lot of rivalries before, but I’ve never been father beginning in ’55, when he was 9 years old. in one quite like this,” Holtz said. “Not because of any one thing. Robinson said the end of the Big Thursday tradition was a culture You can feel just how important this game is to your neighbors. It’s shock for many fans as the series became a home-and-home important to recruiting, it’s important to each school, and it’s affair on a Saturday in November beginning in i960 at Clemson. But important to all of the athletes and coaches who have ever participated for Clemson, it was a necessary change. in this rivalry.” “I think a lot of people didn’t want to see Big Thursday go because The series began on the rainy morning of Nov. 12, 1896, when it was so unique,” Robinson said. “But there was obviously a desire Clemson College met South Carolina in front of about 2,000 fans at to get the series alternating from Clemson’s point of view, and the State Fairgrounds in Columbia. South Carolina won, 12-6, kicking it really helped Clemson a good bit in terms of season ticket sales.” off a rivalry that became known in the early 1900s for the “Big Thursday” CONTINUED TOUCHDOWN ILLUSTRATED WATSON: GETTY IMAGES/ SCOH HALLERAN; GARDNER: COURTESY CLEMSON UNIVERSITY ~ ^ T CLEMSON-SOUTH FhretoRenieiiiier The ligers and Gamecocks have squared oil in some memorahle hatUes over the years. Here are a tew of the host. Nov. 19,1977: Clemson 31, South Carolina 27 Jony Butler leaped high to catch a 20-yard pass (pictured above) from Steve FuHer and feH backward Into the end zone for the winning touchdown wHh 49 seconds remaining In Cohanbla.

Nov. 24,1984: South Carolina 22, Clemson 21 After traUng, 21-3, the Gamecocks stonned back to tie the game on a one-yard run wHh 54 seconds to play DSC missed the extra point, but a Clemson penalty gave kicker Scott Ha^ a second chance, CAROLINA The home field was kind to the Tigers in ’6o because South Carolina failed to score a touchdown in a 12-2 victory. When Clemson returned to Columbia in ’61, the Sigma Nu fraternity at South Carolina welcomed the Tigers with the greatest prank in the series. The Sigma Nus borrowed uniforms from Orange­ burg High School, which wore jerseys identical to Clemson’s, and ran onto the field a minute before the Tigers were scheduled to warm up. The fraternity brothers purposely stumbled and bumbled through fake calisthenics and mocked Clemson’s agrarian heritage by walking with their fingers hanging down like cows’ udders. Only quick thinking by police officers prevented a riot. “Clemson fans jumped the fence,” said South Carolina sports information director emeritus Tom Price, “but the highway patrol stopped it.” South Carolina won the game, 21-14, but Clemson fans got even with a prank of their own in the late 1970s on the night before a game in Columbia. Armed with stencils and orange spray paint, they painted Clemson’s trademark Tiger paws in the road and on bridge over­ passes along the route from Clemson to Columbia. Lookouts with walkie-talkies were posted a mile away in each direction to warn the painting crew if a patrolling police cruiser was approaching. “This thing took place like clockwork,” Bussey said. “That was a goodnatured rivalry and 1 think we got one-upmanship on them at the time.” The game also has provided memorable moments on the field, jerry Butler’s leaping, 20-yard touchdown reception from Steve Fuller to defeat South Carolina in ’77 is known simply as “The Catch” at Clemson and is the most femous play in school history. and his seccnd Uck gave the Gamecocks the victory Nov. 18,2900: Clemson 18, South Carolina 14 Rod Gardner's 50-yard reception of a Woodrow Dantzler pass set up Aaron Hunt’s game-wbuiing, 25-yard field goal with three seconds remaining at Ctemson. Gamecock coach Lou Holtz complained to no avail that Gardner had pushed oN to make the catch. Nov. 21,1905: South CaroHna 17, Ctemson 16 Bob Gunnels deflected Jimmy Addison’s pass incomplete on a two-point conversion attempt that would have won the game for Clemson. Addison had lined up as the holder as the Tigers attempted to win the game on a fake Uck attempt after a late touchdown. Nov. 21,1987: South Carolina 20, Clemson 7 Brad Edwards bitorceptod two fourth-quarter passes, returning one for a touchdown, as the 15lh-ranked Gamecocks defeated No. 8 Clemson In Columbia. This was ESPN’s first Ive broadcast of a game hi this seifes. TURNS 100 In ’84, a Clemson penalty for having too many players on the field in the final minute allowed South Carolina’s Scott Hagler a second chance to kick the game­ winning extra point that gave the Gamecocks their only 10-win season. Those games have enhanced a tradition that has benefited both schools. “Every ticket we have available will be sold,” said South Carolina associate athletic director Brad Edwards. “There is no doubt about it.” Edwards grew up in North Carolina and watched the great Tobacco Road basketball rivalries develop. But he said the passion for basketball in North Carolina didn’t compare to what he experienced when he visited South Carolina for a football game against Clemson as a high school football prospect. In ’87, Edwards returned an interception for a game-clinching touchdown as the i5th-ranked Gamecocks defeated No. 8 Clemson, 20-7, en route to the Gator Bowl. Edwards went on to play in the NFL for 10 seasons and was defensive co-captain of the Washington Redskins’ Super Bowl XXVI championship team in ’92. He has seen a lot of great rivalries up close, including the one between the Redskins and the Dallas Cowboys. But the questions Edwards is asked to this day about his touchdown in ’87 convi/ice him that the South Carolina-Clemson rivalry is as important as any of the others. “For us it is [just as important], it absolutely is,” Edwards said. “It is amazing, even today, as long ago as that was, the amount of folks who mention that play to me. It’s really amazing.” ■ THE FOOTBALL IS CALLED "THE PIGSKIN" BECAUSE, EARLIER IN THE CENTURY, ACTUAL BABY PIGS WERE USED BY PLAYERS IN LIEU OF TODAY'S FAMILIAR STITCHED BALL.

Such philosophy is essential Unlike Edwards and Stinchcomb (who redshirted his brother’s senior in transforming 45 individual athletes into one cohesive unit. season). Boss Bailey was fortunate enough to actually play with his At Georgia, however, the concept of team as family has been taken literally. For linebacker Boss Bailey, flanker Terrence Edwards and older brother, as he joined Champ, an All-America defensive back, as a freshman in 1998. offensive tackle Jon Stinchcomb, Georgia football is a family matter. “I saw all the great plays he made and it made me want to go out Edwards, Bailey and Stinchcomb (pictured above, left to right) can and make great plays like he did,” said Bailey. “He was a real leader look forward to stellar senior seasons in the Southeastern Conference, by example.” and then possibly the NFL Draft, by looking back and benefiting from the Boss learned well and the next season earned a spot in the starting lessons learned by having a brother-in Bailey’s case, two-who played lineup.

At 6-4, 218 pounds. Boss broke the string of Bailey cornerbacks—although his cousin Kenny, a junior, plays comer. But he’s always known where to go when he needs a dose of honesty. “Champ wouldn’t sugarcoat anything,” he said. “We’ve never had the kind of relationship where we’d lie to each other. “But I’ve probably gotten more advice from Ronald,” he added. “He comes to the games and sees everything from the stands, and then he tells me all the things I need to pick up.” Bailey, like Edwards and Stinchcomb, knows he has a reputation to live up to, but also that he’ll ultimately be judged by what he does between the lines. “Terrence, Jon and I all had some great brothers play in front of us,” he said. “So we’ve got to show up every day and do what’s expected of us and what we expect of ourselves by doing things to the best of our abilities.” IqillafeLto Offensive line can be a thankless position.

Matt, in stride. “I would say most of the pressure comes from out­ side sources rather than between the two of us,” he said. “I’ve set some goals for myself in life.

But he says it’s nice to know that he can still rely on his brother, a first-round pick of the Oakland Raiders in the 1999 NFL Draft, for advice. “He can relate because he’s been here,” Stinchcomb said. “Anytime that something’s on my chest and I want to talk to somebody, he’s only a phone call away.

While Robert, a running back with the Dawgs from 1993-97. was earning NFL All-Pro honors, the younger Edwards was setting a UGA freshman record for receptions (53), becoming the first freshman since 1978 to lead the team in catches. Actually, he’s led the team in all three seasons and is climbing the school’s career receiving lists in receptions (139, third), touchdowns (19, tied for first) and yards (2,089 yards, 10 away from second). Terrence credits older brothers Robert and Anthony for his accomplishments. “My two older brothers made me what I am today,” he said. “Robert and Anthony allowed me to play with them and the older guys and did not take any of the slack off me. “Robert and 1 talk a lot,” he continued. “I even criticized his game when he was playing. We’re close enough to do that. He tells me a lot of things that I need to work on.” Robert and Terrence grew closer following the 1998 season, while Robert was rehabbing from a horrific knee injury suffered during Pro Bowl weekend. In the University of Georgia media guide, Terrence says that if he could switch places with one person for one day it would be Robert. “He’s an angel,” Terrence said. “He’s done all the things that I want to do. He’s a great person and someone you want to be.” Terrence feels that he’s gained a greater appreciation for the game, seeing how fleeting Robert’s NFL dream was. “This spring 1 went out there every day like this was my last day because you never know when it’s gonna be your last practice or your last game or your last anything,” he said. “[Robert] really showed me that it comes and it goes in an instant, and to go out there every day and get better and just know that in one play, your whole career could be gone.” mat»■’ have to Ghataige this.

Two years ago the four service organizations proved invaluable working at the Bills - Browns scrimmage, and for the last two years have run our 50/50 raffles.

Three-time All-American Jeremy O’Day is in his sixth season as an offensive lineman in the Canadian Football League. O’Day played two seasons for the Toronto Argonauts, helping them win the Grey Cup . The 6’3”, 295 lb. offensive guard was chosen by the Argos in the 1997 supple­ mental draft. He is now a member of the Saskatchewan Roughriders. Another former Fighting Scot playing north of the border is Jeff Traversy. The 6’5”, 280 lb. nose tackle was the Calgary Stampeders’ third pick in the 1997 college draft. The third former Fighting Scot is John Williams, last year’s leading rusher. Williams was drafted by British Columbia in the fourth round of this past spring’s CFL Draft. He led the Scots with 723 yards rushing and added 14 receptions in 2001. Several former Edinboro players have enjoyed success in the Arena Football League, most notably Cleveland Pratt. Though just 5’7”, 171 lbs., Pratt has prospered in the indoor football league. This past season he played for the Florida Firecats, enjoying an outstanding season. He ranked among the league leaders in scoring and all-purpose yardage. Former Edinboro wide receiver Quentin Ware-Bey has also toiled in the AFL2, playing for the Carolina Rhinos. A number of other Fighting Scots have made their marks in the pro­ fessional ranks. Denorse Mosely was a member of the Miami Dolphins as a defensive back for two seasons, and was also in training camp with the Green Bay Packers a year ago. He spent the majority of his first season with the Dolphins on the practice squad before being activated for the playoffs. James Dumas, a defensive back two years ago for Edinboro, was signed as a free agent by the San Francisco 49ers in 1999. Gilbert John Williams was drafted by the British Columbia Lions in the fourth round of the Canadian Football League Draft. Grantlin was a free agent signee of the Minnesota Vikings in 1996, earn­ ing a spot on the practice squad. Mike Kegarise, a 6’6”, 310 lb. offensive tackle, was highly-regarded by the Seattle Seahawks before suffering a severe knee injury. He spent the 1994 season on the Seahawks’ injured reserve list. Former head coach Tom Hollman produced two other NFL hopefuls. Offensive guard Curtis Rose signed as a free agent with the Miami Dolphins, while wide receiver Ernest Priester was signed by the Denver Broncos. Priester later played for the Cleveland Thunder of the Arena Football League. Edinboro players perform­ ing in the NFL date back to the 1970’s, with both Dave Green and Jim Romaniszyn playing for the Cleveland Browns. Green, a running back, also played for the Montreal Alouettes in the CFL. Romaniszyn, a 6’2”, 225 lb. running back, was drafted by the Browns in the 13th round in 1973, then switched to line­ Dave Green backer. Now a member of the Saskatchewan Roughriders, offensive lineman Jeremy O’Day previously playedfor the Grey Cup champion Toronto Argonauts.
