In 1861 it was cha3> tered by the Commonwealth as Pennsylvania’s second Normal School and developed and grew through service to the Common­ wealth. A great forward stride was taken in 1914> when the Com­ monwealth purchased Edinboro Normal School. In 1926, alerted to the need for better educated teachers for its schools, Pennsylvania made Edinboro a Teachers College offering a fouryear curriculum leading to degrees of Bachelor of Science in Secondary, Elementary, and Art Education, and Library Science. In I960 the name of the college was changed to State College. Edinboro Beginning in September of 1957, the college was empowered to grant degrees of Master of Education in Elementary Educa­ tion. In September 1961, graduate study in secondaiy educa­ tion was added to the graduate program. In 1962 the liberal arts degree program was begun. Stu­ dents may prepare for various vocations as an arts and science major in the Humanities, Social Sciences or Natural Sciences and may receive a Bachelor of Arts degree. The control of the College is vested in the Board of Trustees, composed of nine members appointed by the Governor of Pennsylvania. The Board of Trustees in turn elects the President of the College who is responsible for its adminis­ tration. The State Superintendent of Public Instruction is an ex-officio member of the Board of Trustees. The College is accredited by the National Council for Ac­ creditation of Teacher Education, the Middle States Associa­ tion of Colleges and Secondary Schools, and the Anerican Medi­ cal Association. In addition, its curriculums are registered by the New York State Department of Education. The College stresses friendly relations among students and faculty and informal student counseling and guidance. The faculty is keenly aware of professional interests and self growth. High qualitative and quantitative standards distin­ guish the graduates of this college. The preparation of better educated citizens has been an Edinboro tradition for over a century. -1X PRESIDENT Dr. Chester T. McNemey became president of Edinboro State College in September, 1966. His formal in­ auguration, honoring him as Edinbords thirteenth president, followed on April 22, 1967. Dr. Chester T. McNerney Ed?. McNemey came to Edinboro from the University of Akron, where he was Dean of the College of Educa­ tion and was highly instrumental in the development of numerous educa­ tional innovations. He was cited as the motivating force behind the Uni­ versity of Akron Classrooms Around the World, and recognized for his scholarly studies of comparative education abroad. Dr. McNemey’s primary areas of interest deal with the improvement of the curriculum, the program for educational su­ pervision and administration, and the improvement of inter­ personal relationships among the various members of working groups. His concern in this area has led to his writing of several books, lecturing and conducting various workshops. He is a man dedicated to the academic life, a tireless advocate of personal involvement in the religious and civic affairs of one’s community, and an educator who visibly be­ lieves in and practices total individual professional commit­ ment. ATHLETIC DIRECTOR Mr. Allan W. Hall of Akron Uni­ versity was appointed last year to the newly created post of full-time Director of Athletics at the College. Hall, a graduate of BaldwinWallace College, has served as As­ sistant Director of Athletics at Akron University for 2 years. Al Hall While at Akron, Hall was quite active in the University’s athletic program. He piloted Akron’s cross country teams for 12 years and guided his harriers to three Ohio Conferences and three All-Ohio chant-2X pionships. His 1963 squad held the distinction of being runnerup to national champion Baporia State in the NCAA meet. Along vdth his cross country duties he also served as assist­ ant track coach at A.U. for 12 years. Hall's keen interest in all phases of sports is reflected by his past accomplishments in the field of athletics. In 1962 he was selected Meet Director of the National AAU Swim­ ming Championships. He was highly instrumental in making Akron University the site of the Mideast Regional NCAA Basketball Tournaments in 1964, 1965, and 1966. Hall is also credited with the inception of the Junior Olympics program in the city of Alcron. He served as the University* s ^orts Information Director during 1958 and 1959. EDINBORO STATE COLLEGE'S ATHLETIC PROGRAM Intercollegiate athletics play an important role in the total educational program of Edinboro State College. The pro­ gram is so conducted as to assure wholesome use of leisure time, a healthy focal point for the experience and the expres­ sion of group spirit, and a laboratory experience for pros­ pective coaches. Edinboro's athletic program includes intercollegiate con>petition in football, basketball, wrestling, golf, track, ten­ nis, baseball, soccer, and cross country. The finest of facilities are readily being made available to accommodate these sports. The most recent addition to Edinboro's athletic plant is Sox Harrison Stadium and Athletic Field. The stadium provides seating for 4OOO persons for football contests along with com­ plete track facilities. Recently completed is a baseball dia­ mond of major league specifications situated near the stadium. The field covers six acres with a selected clay base infield and specially seeded playing area. Scheduled for construction in the near future is a new fieldhouse. The structure will include an intercollegiate basketball court, three intramural basketball courts, an AAUsized swimming pool, wrestling and handball rooms, a steam room, a corrective gym, medical suite, and rifle range. Seat­ ing capacity of the sports arena will be approximately 4>500 with provisions for later expansion to 7,000 provided. The continuing growth of Edinboro* s athletic program is rapidly establishing the College as a respected collegiate competitor. -3- TALENTED FRONT LINERS LEAD SCOT DIAMONIMEN Although Edinboro State's baseball roster is studded with many first-year performers, the Scots appear to be ready for the 1969 season with talented starters at all positions. Sev­ en veteran returnees along with a crop of outstanding sopho­ mores will guide Coach Jim Christopher's diamond fortunes as the Highlanders embark upon their fourth year of intercolle­ giate competition. Bolstering the Clan's firepower on the mound are 6-5 sen­ ior righthander Rod Herron (Jackson Center) and junior south­ paw Jim Sullivan (Lockport, N. Y.). Herron, an overpowering fastballer, twirled 4 wins in 8 outings last year while post­ ing a 2.73 ERA. Sullivan, who completes the Scots' 1-2 punch, tossed his way to a 2-2 slate and chalked up an ERA of 2.09. Larry Parsing (Pittsfield), the Clan's second leading hitter last spring with a .326 average, is also expected to see plenty of hurling action on the hill. Others scheduled to be tested for pitching duty include: Greg Westhoff (Bethel Park), Darrell Gettys (Pittsburgh), Joe Espey (Baden), Larry Connelly (Cheswick), Mel Dainty (West Newton) and Vince Racculia (Pittsburgh). Top prospects in the Clan's defensive-minded infield are Ron Young (New Kensington), a 2-year letter winner at first base, Wayne Bair (Pitcairn), a third-year veteran at second, Jim Colangelo (Conneaut, 0.), a 3-year award winner at third base and sophomore Dick Astor (Milltown, N. J.) at shortstop. Battling Scot co-captain, Ron Young, for first base hon­ ors is sophomore Jamie Ferrare (Erie). Ferrare was an All-City selection in both his junior and senior years while perfonning for Strong Vincent High School where he played 4 years of base­ ball. Young returns to the Highlander lineup after a year's absence. He hit .290 the last time out as a sophomore. Wayne Bair has been the Clan's regular second sacker for the past 3 years and has been chosen as the squad's MVP for the last two seasons. He led the Scots' sticks as a sophomore when he slapped out a .409 average and repeated again as a junior by connecting 21 times in 56 appearances at the plate for a .374 batting mark. Jim Colangelo has been the Clan's regular third sacker for the past three campaigns. He led the team in RBI's last year by sending home 12 of his teammates for Edinboro tallies. Dick Astor, a sophomore newcomer with plenty of creden­ tials, will anchor the infield at shortstop. A standout player at New Brunswick High, Astor was drafted by the Washington Senators 2 years ago. While performing at third base he was named to the All-State Team by the Newark News and placed on the New York Daily News' All Star Team. Astor not only posses­ ses a fine arm and glove, but is also an excellent hitter. The backstop chores will be handled by sophomore Bob King (Wilkes-Barre), another top prospect who has been scouted by the pros. The outfield positions will most likely be manned by an all-sophomore contingent. Looking impressive in early drills have been Burk Krohe (Northbrook, 111.) in center, Ray Over­ holt (Brookfield, 111.) in left and Jim Mowbray (Erie) in right field. Other sophs pressing hard who could easily be found in the outfield on opening day are Dennis Dombrowski (Harborcreek), Jim Winch (Pittsburgh) and A1 Scaggs (Aliquippa). The Highlander nine will open season play when they host Westminster at 3:00 p.m., April 15. The Clan will be striving for a repeat of last year's opening game win over the Titans. The contest will mark Edinboro State's first home base­ ball game as the Scots inaugurate play on their new field. 1968 VARSITY BASEBALL RESULTS ' April 16 Edinboro 4 Westminster 0 April 20 Edinboro 6 Edinboro 0 Point Park Point Park 5 7 April 29 Edinboro 7 Edinboro 2 Youngstown Youngstown 3 3 April 30 Edinboro 1 Edinboro 4 California California 8 2 May 2 Edinboro 8 Edinboro 4 Alliance Alliance 6 3 May 4 Edinboro 0 Edinboro 4 Slippery Rock Slippery Rock 3 5 May 8 Edinboro 5 Edinboro 0 Gannon Gannon 6 9 May 11 Edinboro 1 Fredonia 2 May 13 Edinboro 2 Edinboro 9 Alliance Alliance 1 11 Record 7-9 -7- 1969 DIAMOND HOPEFULS Pos.

Mariotti began tennis coach^ ing duties in March I964. After graduating from West Lib­ erty College, Mr. Mariotti taught and coached for fifteen years on the high school staff of the Allegheny Valley Joint Schools in Springdale, Pennsylvania. During his time there, he served as head baseball coach, assistant football coach and head trainer. Hanio "Hank" Mariotti Mr. Mariotti joined the Edin­ boro State College faculty in September of 1962. Erom 1962 to 1966 he has served as assistant football coach, trainer, ten­ nis coach, intramural director, acting director of athletics and teacher of health education via closed circuit educational television. Under Mr. Mariotti’s past guidance, as athletic director, freshmen schedules in track, tennis and wrestling have been incorporated in the total athletic program. The addition of baseball as a collegiate sport at Edinboro became a reality through his efforts. RACKET MEN POST WINNING SLATE IN ' 68 The Fighting Scot netmen spurted to an early 5-2 record before consecutive losses to Buffalo State, Fredonia and Gan­ non left the court men -with an even slate. A 5-4 victory in the season finale, however, put the Highlanders on the plus side of the ledger for a fine season showing. Edinboro racket men Ted Robison and Frank Bova paved the way on the clay courts liy posting identical 8-3 season marks in matches while court mate Tom Smith followed closely with a 7-4 slate. Leading in doubles play at the close of the campaign was the duo of Tom Moore and Tom Smith who smacked their way to 7 wins and only 3 defeats. A fifth-place finish in the state tournament, which in­ cluded 11 of the 13 state colleges this past year, capped team play for the season. -1> Both Robison and Bova traveled to Kansas City, Mo., where they competed in the NAIA tennis tourney. The sophomore hope­ fuls were eliminated in the early matches, but gained valuable experience on the courts to provide plenty of depth for the Scots in 1969. Coach Hanio Mariotti's Fighting Scot netmen captured the runnerup trophy by garnering second place in the first annual Edinboro State College fall tennis tournament. The invitational contest, sponsored October 11-12, marked a historical first in the Highlander athletic record books Since the Scots never before hosted a tennis tournament on its hardcourts. The Highlanders earned their second place finish with a tally of 12 winning points. California State College was the winner of the quadrangular tourney with 20^ points. Mansfield State College placed third with 10 points and Slippery Rock State followed with 9^ markers. Edinboro State's Ted Robison was named the winner of the Outstanding Singles Player trophy by the participating coaches. Robison, a jimior from Oil City, emerged undefeated in three singles division matches. Robison and Frank Bova combined their tennis abilities to win the Outstanding Doubles Team trophy for Edinboro State. Bova is a junior from Erie. -14- SCOT NETTERS FACE UPHILL BATTLE Edinboro State’s Fighting Scot netmen will pin the hopes of the 1969 season on the rackets of lettermen Ted Robison (Oil City), Erank Bova (Erie), Tom Snith (Erie) and Bob Campadel (Clairton). Robison and Bova paved the way to a 6-5 slate for the Clan last season on the courts by posting identical 8-3 season marks while teammate Tom Smith followed closely with a 7-4 slate. Letteman Bob Campadel will give the Scots enced representative in the fourth position. an experi­ Joe McNaul (Clearfield), Dalph McNeil (Brookville) and Lou Vitelli (Erie) are battling for the fifth-place slot. The Clan should have some outstanding individual efforts in the hardcourts this spring but the squad doesn’t have the depth exhibited last season. Coach Hank Mariotti feels his team is one year away from its top potential. "We have out­ standing underclassmen performing for us and have freslmien who will be starting for us next year," stated the coach. An enlarged schedule of 13 dual matches against such strong schools as Buffalo State, California, Youngstown and Gannon will add to Scot racketers’ challenges. A trip to Mansfield State on April 12 will mark the open­ ing of net play for the Highlander hopefuls. 1968 TENNIS RESULTS Edinboro Edinboro Edinboro Edinboro Edinboro Edinboro Edinboro Edinboro Edinboro Edinboro Edinboro 9 2 6 9 6 1 7 3 3 3 5 Alliance California Gannon Alliance Slippery Rock Youngstown Indiana Buffalo State Fredonia Gannon Slippery Rock Record 6-5 -15- 0 7 3 0 3 8 2 6 6 6 4 . 1969 TMNIS ROSTER VARSITY Name *Bova, Frank **Campedel, Bob Co\u*tney, Ray Kruse, Bob McNaul, Joe McNeil, Dalph *Robison, Ted Sheffield, Bob ***Sbiith, Tom Vitelli, Louis Ht.

O'Dessa enrolled as an imdergradnate at Edinboro State College in 1957 and in 1961 received his B.S. degree. During his athletic career at Edinboro, O'Dessa competed on the varsity football and track teams. As a Highlander thinclad he earned four Dave O'Dessa varsity "E"s as a result of his out­ standing athletic ability. He was rated the number one man in the shot put and discus events for four years and was the recipient of the Sixth Annual Sox Har­ rison Outstanding Athlete Award in 1961. Following his graduation from ESC, O'Dessa was named as an assistant football coach for the Scots, but in January of 1962 he began a two year term of service with the U.S. Army in Germany. Coach O'Dessa returned to Edinboro in I964 to serve as assistant football mentor and in 1966 was named head track coach.

Three firsts were recorded by the Highlander thinclads. Dale Seifert stepped over the 440 intermediate hurdles in a record time of 58.5 to post a new ESC mark while the 440 relay team of Sage, Figert, Walters, and Hess raced to a new time of 45*4 around the oval. Senior Ron Wiser paced the Scots in in­ dividual scoring as he continually captured top spots in the mile, 2-mile and the pole vault. Edinboro’s thinclads edged Indiana University of Pa., *73-71 > to give the Scots their first-ever win over the Big In­ dians in track. Freshman John Gillette flipped the discus 133’7" to es­ tablish another Highlander mark in the field events. The Clan’s yearling squad sped its way to an unblemished 7-0 slate to become the first undefeated freshman cinder team at Edin­ boro. 1968 VARSITY TRACK RESULTS Edinboro Edinboro Edinboro Edinboro Edinboro Edinboro Edinboro Edinboro 82 65 50 48 73 70 51 25 Geneva Slippery Rock Westminster Clarion Indiana U. of Pa Cleveland State Mansfield Grove City Record 2-6 -19- 63 80 95 97 71 72 85 109 RETURNEES AND OUTSTANDING NEWCOMERS BRIGHTEN CINDER SEASON PROSPECTS Outstanding individual efforts have been a tradition that Edinboro track coach Dave O’Dessa has always welcomed. For the past 2 years, however, the Highlander thinclads have had no depth to back their top performers. The outlook is much brighter in the Fighting Scot camp this spring. A core of 16 lettermen bolster the Clan's cinder charges. The addition of top prospects from a freshman squad that ran to an undefeated season last year with 7 consecutive wins also point to a strengthening of the ranks. Paving the way for the Scots are Edinboro tri-captains George Cincala (Natrona Heights), Jack Horton (Cambridge Springs) and Gary Pierotti (Allison Park). Cincala flips the discus while Horton is the Clan's leader in the 440 and Pierotti competes in the long jump. The thinclads appear strongest in sprints behind the spikes of letter winners Bill Hamilton (Erie), Ron Hess (Mc­ Keesport), Paul Reed (Erie), Mike Sage (Ambridge) and Rick Walters (Edinboro). Also pushing for starting positions in the blocks will be junior "Smokey" Santillo along with sophomores Doug Shevchik (Aliquippa) and Dave Zuchelli (Ridgeway) who paced the frosh dash men. Letterman Dale Seifert (North East) will lead the field over the timbers. The speedy junior set a new Edinboro record in the 440 intermediate hurdles last spring with a :58.5 clocking. Backing his efforts against the barriers are sopho­ mores Eric Schwartz(North East) and George Simko (Bethel Park). Veterans Norm Eaton (Springdale) and Jack Horton fonn the 440 contingent while Bob Gomy (Pittsburgh) and Joe Robb (Tur­ bo tville) will carry the Highlanders' hopes in the 880. The mile and 2-mile runs will be anchored by junior Cliff Kirschner (N. Versailles) with newcomers Rich Kaleida (Conneautville) and John Plakidas (Pittsburgh) teaming up to as­ sault the oval. John Gillette, a sophomore from Albion who set a new Ed­ inboro discus mark last year with a heave of 133'7", has con­ tinued to improve and should prove to be an outstanding per­ former in a varsity uniform. Gillette and tri-captain Cincala could give the Clan a strong 1-2 combination in the platter spinning event. -20- other returners to watch include; Dennis Como (Houston). in the jumping events, Ron PaJ.yo (Greenville) in the shot put, Ron Demar (Union City) in the pole vault and Mike B^tfalvi (Coraopolis) in the hurdles. Sophomore Mike Hauser (Aliquippa) will combine his efforts with Demar in the pole vault compe­ tition. The jumping events should be strengthened with the ad­ dition of Joe Booker (Leechburg) and Larry Mathis (Washington) who are both sophomores. Mathis shined for the Highlander frosh last spring in the long jump. Edinboro opens its cinder season in a triangular meet against Geneva and St. Francis at Geneva on April 15. The Scots then travel to Slippery Rock on April 19 to compete against the Rockets and Grove City in a battle of powerhouses. Grove. City has finished undefeated for the past 3 years while riding a 28-meet winning streak and Slippery Rock captured the 1968 Pennsylvania State Colleges championship. -21- 1969 TRACK ROSTER Hometown Name Anderson, Carl *Bartfalvi, Mike Barry, Kevin Booker, Joe Broyn, Dennis Carbaugh, Robert Cheatle, James *Cincala, George *Como, Dennis Erie Coraopolis Pittsburgh Leechburg Warren Kennerdell St. Marys Natrona Heights Houston *Demar, Ron *Eaton, Norm Gillette, John *Gomy, Bob Hall, Stephen ^Hamilton, Bill Hauser, Mike *Hess, Ron *Horton, Jack Kaleida, Rich *Kirschner, Cliff Mathis, Larry Union City Springdale Albion Pittsburgh Meadville Erie Aliquippa McKeesport Camb.

Its membership originally consisted of the 14 state col­ leges; Bloomsbiirg, California, Cheyney, Clarion, East Strouds­ burg, Edinboro, Indiana, Kutztown, Lock Haven, Mansfield, Millersville, Shippensburg, Slippery Rock, and West Chester. In 1966 Indiana no longer was eligible for conference laurels as it acquired university status. The conference is divided into a Western Division and an Eastern Division. Members of the Eastern Division include Bloomsburg, Cheyney, East Stroudsburg, Mansfield, Kutztown, Millersville, Shippensburg, and West Chester, while Edinboro, California, Clarion, Lock Haven, and Slippery Rock comprise the Western Division. In basketball, the conference champions of both leagues face each other at the end of the season to determine the PC championship.
