Ediivboro IJmversity OF Pey^sylvama HTi^G Scots A Running Tradition of Excellence Within the past thirty years, Edinboro has established one of the premier running programs in the NCAA Division II as well as the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference In the 29 years of the program’s existence under the guidance of head coach Doug Watts, the Running Scots have developed one of the most impressive winning history in Edinboro ath­ letics. With an overall dual meet record of 130-8, six national team titles (two NAIA, four NCAA), and three individual national champions, the Fighting Scots harriers have established a tradition of excellence that challenges as the best distance program in the country. Last season, the men’s program qualified for the NCAA Division II national meet for the 19th consecutive season! The Scots captured the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference champi­ Junior Jeff Barker onship for the 13th time in the last 14 years, and also won the NCAA East Regional title for the 12th time in 13 years. The Edinboro women placed second in the PSAC championships and were run­ ners-up at the East Region championship meet. They qualified for nationals for the seventh time in the past nine years, and ended the 1998 season in 4th place at the NCAA Division II meet, the best women’s finish ever recorded in Edinboro women’s athletics. Eight members of the Running Scot squad earned All-American honors for their / performances at the national meet. For the women, Amy Perry and teammate Sandra Sweet earned their second All-American certificate, while freshmen Lisa Petsche and Carrie McKeon captured their first such award. On the men’s team, Travis Kuhl, Steve Owens, Scott Kovacevic and Jeff Barker all earned their first All-American certificates for cross country. Two individuals received additional post-sea­ son awards. Junior Amy Perry was named the top female runner in the PSAC and the Outstanding NCAA Division II East Region female Runner of the Year for the second consecutive season. She was selected as a PSAC Fall Top Ten award win­ ner, displaying both athletic and academic superi­ ority. Senior Travis Kuhl was the top male runner in the PSAC and the East Region male Runner of the Year, and was also selected as a Top Ten awardee. The women’s team was chosen to receive an Academic All-American Team Award for the third straight year. Entering the 1998 season, the men’s team is aiming for its 20th consecutive trip to the NCAA Division II championship meet, while the women have set their goals on finishing among the top five teams in the country again this season. A solid core of returners along with a talented group of newcomers should make both Running Scot teams national contenders once again this Senior Amy Perry season. j 1998 Edinroro Cross Country Information j Sports Information Coordinator: tba SID Office Phone: (814)732-2776 ext. 234 SID Home Phone: tba SID FAX: (814)732-2596 Cross Country Contact: Danielle Barney E-Mail Address: d689452b@edinboro.edu Office Phone: (814)732-2776x236 Mailing Address: 113 McComb Fieldhouse General Information Location: Edinboro, PA Founded: 1857 Enrollment: 7,200 Nickname: Fighting Scots Colors: Red and White Affiliation: NCAA Division II Conference: Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference Edinboro, PA 16444 President: Dr. Frank G.

The Edinboro Women The Edinboro women's cross country program has reached the level of success and motivation that accompanies all national championship teams and has become characteristic of the Boro women's own competitiveness. "To win a national championship, so many things have to go right," says head coach Doug Watts. "All I want to happen this Fall is for us to get into the huddle at nationals and say, 'OK, we have a chance!"' After finishing in fourth place at the NCAA Division II Cross Country National Championships last season -- only six points out of second place -- the best fin­ ish of any Edinboro women's team. Coach Watts' goal seems achievable. The team may still be short on real depth at the national level, but it will still have enough strength up front to contend. National standout Amy Perry returns Sophomore Lisa Petsche, a 1997 Allfor her fourth season. Perry still has her American, is expected to be a top persights set on individual and team national ^ former for the 1998 Fighting Scots. championship goals, which are now clos­ er than ever to being realized. Perry was the Fighting Scots top finisher at the 1997 NCAA Division II Cross Country National Championships, placing fifth to earn her second All-American certifi­ cate for cross country. Perry also produced some stellar performances during the 1998 track season, finishing third in NCAA Division II in the indoor 5,000 meters, and third and fourth in the NCAA Division II outdoor 10,000 and 5,000 meters. Coach Watts believes she has run enough big races consistently to be a serious contender for a national title her last time around. Freshman sensation Lisa Petsche hopes to add consistency to her regime for the 1998 season. Already an All-American in cross country (12th at 1997 NCAA Division II Cross Country Championships) and in track (seventh in the 10,000 meters at the 1998 NCAA Division II Outdoor Championships), all that Petsche needs now is to blend her extreme desire to race and train with the physiologi­ cal demands of many miles. The surprise individual champion of the 1997 Notre Dame Invitational, Petsche, according to Watts, may have the best car­ diovascular system of any woman runner he has coached. Carrie McKeon, another sensation from the freshman class of 1997, also hopes to become more consistent this season. At least two competitions last Fall saw McKeon running in a lead position early, only to have heat exhaustion erase her chances for a top finish. However, a 23rd place at nationals made her Edinboro's fourth All-American and suggests an excellent future. Even with the high level of talent on last year's squad, there were a few sur­ prises. Sophomore Ashley Hansen quickly emerged as a scorer in the short span of three months last Fall. Hansen was not expected to be so competitive early in her career, but she took to long training runs extremely well, gaining confidence in her ability throughout the season. An All-American performance is now on her agenda for 1998. Eighth on last years' ranking order, sophomore Amy Shinskie no longer wants to be 'just outside' the top seven. "She's come a long way from August 1997," said Watts. "If she believes in herself just a little more, Amy will become a scor­ er." Two newcomers will have an immediate impact on the level of performance of the returnees. Oklahoma Baptist transfer Gabriela Hnilkova brings multiple NAIA All-American certificates with her to Edinboro. With personal records of 4:37, 9:58, and 17:37, Hnilkova is poised to show improvements under Edinboro's dis­ tance training program. The team expects her to be at least a top twenty NCAA Division II national finisher. Freshman Kathy Briesch, a six-time Pennsylvania All-State runner, has shown excellent consistency of performance during her high school career. Coach Watts will look for that consistency to continue in her collegiate running. If it does, the women Running Scots could be formidable. The Fighting Scots are close to attaining their tangible goal of a national title. Over time, it has become clear that a combination of consistency, intensity, and desire in training and competition will be the deciding factors for a successful Edinboro women's cross country team. The 1998 squad returns three AllAmericans and a number of other key performers and new talent that give the team a nice blend of experience and drive. Their competitiveness should no longer be a surprise to the field. 1998 Women’s Cross Covntrt Roster Name Yn Hometown/Hiah School Kathy Breisch Ashley Hansen Gabriela Hnilkova Annie Lindenberger Lynann Lorenz Maura McGuigan Carrie McKeon Amy Perry Lisa Petsche Britney Robinson Amy Shinskie Melanie Welding Fr.

"Certainly, that was a major factor in choosing Edinboro to attain my education and athletic goals." Kovacevic fully expects to lead the Edinboro men's team back to the NCAA Division II National Championship meet for his fourth straight year and the program's incredi­ ble 20th straight year. In fact, under head coach Doug Watts, who began coaching at the Boro in 1969, the only year the team did not qualify for the national meet was in 1978. With only one senior and two juniors on the roster, this season's success will depend greatly on younger runners making the "step up" through training and desire, a tradition that is characteristic of the Edinboro distance men. "On paper, we are not overpowering, but put us on the line in the big races, and we tradi­ Scott Kovacevic is a 1997 Aiitionally perform above our opponent's expec­ American and the only senior on tations," reflects Watts. this season’s roster. Case in point? Last year's squad com­ pletely out ran the Pennsylvania State Athletic / Conference and NCAA Division II Regional teams ranked well above them before the championship meets. The Edinboro men scored 35 points to win the conference championships and 26 points to capture the East Regional title, a win so decisive that the Boro team would have defeated the best of the entire region's runners if they had been combined as one team! The Running Scots lose two solid and dependable All-American runners to graduation, but two All-Americans will return. Expected to be a front runner, junior Jeff Barker is primed to take over the front of the pack. A late-season bloomer in '97, Barker placed 35th at the national meet for All-American recog­ nition. This season, he will look to collect his second All-American certificate. Barker's main battle will be to overcome a broken leg sustained during the 1998 track and field season. Senior Scott Kovacevic, who enters his fourth and final season with the Running Scots, passionately wants his second All-American certificate and is serious about his leadership role on the 1998 team. Kovacevic, who scores bet­ ter on longer and tougher courses, performed well at big meets last season, and finished 36th at the national championships for his first All-American award. He has developed the confidence and drive to grow more competitive and his abil­ ity to perform should be an integral part of the team's success. Sophomore Daryl Myer, who earned All-Conference and All-Region honors last Fall, has earned Coach Watts' respect for his dedication, willingness to train and competitiveness. An Academic All-American last year, Myer is on the brink of achieving similar athletic honors. A number of other returnees will contribute to the drive for a national champi­ onship. Junior Jon Newlin (42nd at Nationals in 1997) should and must improve to provide depth up front for the Fighting Scots. Watts expects Jerad and Jason Bullers, now with one year of experience, to run at much higher levels than their 1997 freshman performances. Other upperclassmen who will contribute to the team include Bryan Lenzo, a top seven-runner two years ago who redshirted in 1997, Sean MacMillan, seventh man last Fall, and red-shirt freshman Ryan Kelly. A solid freshman class will vie for a starting position. A transfer from China, Yi Min Wu has ran a sub-14:00, 29:00 and a sub-2:14 in the marathon, and will impact at the national level immediately. Coach Watts predicts that Tim Cron, eighth-place finisher at the PIAA Cross Country championships (4:23 on the track), will be the typical Edinboro developer, and could be All-American potential a few years from now. Nate Wibberly, who was studying in Europe last year, is another potential scorer for the Fighting Scots. Mickey West, Clint Thompson and John Flynn, along with several other recruits, might weigh red-shirt opportunities this Fall. Edinboro's veteran coach approaches his 30th year with his usual optimism, apprehensiveness and solid realism. "The central theme this time around is 'focus'," says Watts. "We will continue to do what Edinboro runners have always done well - address the central issue of training with dedication and hard work, and then concentrate on efforts in our daily lives so when we step up to the line in competition, we are prepared and willing to risk being the best we can be!" 1998 Men’s Cross Coentry Roster Name Yl Hometown/Hiah School Jeff Barker Jason Bullers Jerad Bullers Tim Cron John Flynn Ryan Kelly Scott Kovacevic Bryan Lenzo Sean MacMillan Daryl Myer Tim Myers Jon Newlin Zach Porter Peter Schmitt Clint Thompson Mickey West Nate Wibberly Yi Min Wu Jr. So.

My running at Edinboro seems to be an experience to which i was guid­ ed, and fortunateiy so.” David Antognoli was Edinboro cross country head coach Doug Watts' first-ever recruit back in 1969. He is also, according to Watts, the number one reason Edinboro State College became creditable on the nation­ al running scene, and helped lay the foundation for the successful program that exists today. In fact, the tremen­ dous recruiting classes of 1972-73 followed in the direct footsteps of Antognoli and led to Edinboro's six national team titles. Antognoli had run for Watts at Walsh Jesuit High school in Ohio, but had quit the team his senior track sea­ son for non-athletic reasons. Watts obtained the Edinboro coaching job in July of that same year, and traveled to a local road race to scout. There was Antognoli warming up for the race. He told Watts he had reevaluated his philosophy concerning athletics, and was planning on running at Akron University. Watts did not allow that plan to materialize, and the rest, as they say, is history. “When he (Watts) was hired at Edinboro, he made me an offer I couldn’t refuse: run for him and receive a good education,” recalled Antognoli. As a Running Scot, Antognoli won a multitude of individual titles, including three nation­ al titles, and many All-American certificates in both cross country and track. One of his greatest memories associated with Edinboro cross country was when the 1970 squad, underdogs to several conference teams at the time, captured the PSAC championship. “After I finished, Doug and I jumped with excitement as we watched my teammates clinch the victory.” He also was the top collegiate finisher in the 1972 Olympic trials. Antognoli did not run competitively after college, mostly because in those days running was truly an amateur sport, and support was non-existent. Instead, Antognoli was a top graduate student, got married, and started teaching. He was inducted into the Edinboro Athletic Hall of Fame in 1983. He now teaches English and Composition at Neshannock High School, coaches their cross country team (“Deja vu fulfillment”), and serves as the assistant track coach. Antognoli is married to the former Ann Abraham (1973 EUP gradu­ ate), and has two children, Erin, 23, and Jason, 20. 1 Edinboro Track & Field Records JftEiv’s Records... 100 Meters William Wares Steve Davis Howard Hackiey 200 Meters Steve Davis 400 Meters George Crunkleton 800 Meters Rick Kiilian 1,500 Meters Cari Leonard 5,000 Meters Mike Platt 10,000 Meters Uriel Rivera Steeplechase Greg Beardsley Marathon Martin Lyons 110 HH John Walker 400 MH John Walker 400 Meter Relay C.
