Edinboro University football fans can catch all the Fighting Scot gridiron action on a pair of stations this fall. WQLN FM
91.3 is in its first season broadcasting Edinboro football
action. A public broadcasting station, WQLN will air all but
the Lock Haven game this fall. Veteran announcer Steve
Bohen will be the Voice of the Fighting Scots, with Kevin
John Jobczynski handling the color commentary. Bohen
is well-known in local circles as the voice of Gannon
University basketball and McDowell High School football.
As usual, WFSE FM 88.9 will also broadcast all eleven
games. The Edinboro student radio station has provided
valuable broadcasting experience for Edinboro students,
along with quality broadcasts of Edinboro football.

THE COACHES

Edinboro head coach Tom Hollman (Ohio Northern ‘68) is in his
12th season in charge of the Fighting Scots. With a 78-44-2 record
at Edinboro, Hollman ranks as the school’s career record holder for
most wins. He also coached four seasons at Wooster. Hollman
has an overall mark of 102-55-3, ranking 22nd among all active
NCAA Division II coaches in winning percentage, and picking up
win number 100 vs. Glenville State.

Dr. George Mihalik (Slippery Rock ‘74) is in 12th year at the helm
of the Rockets. A former starting quarterback at SRU, Mihalik has
guided the Rock to the elite of Division II. Slippery Rock has had
just two losing seasons under Mihalik, coming in his first three
years. Since 1997, SRU has posted a 30-5 ledger, going to the
NCAA Playoffs the last two years. Mihalik has an overall mark of
83-42-4.

THE EDIHBORO-SlIPPERY ROCK SERIES
SllppenKockleails40-20-7
The Rockets have won the last three meetings between the two
schools, with two of those contests at N. Kerr Thompson Stadium.
Prior to that, Edinboro had won the previous three outings.

Slippery Rock jumped to a 28-0 lead at the half, but the Boro
cut the margin in a half with a pair of third quarter touchdowns.

BORO BITS
This is a different
Boro team since
the last time the
Scots played at
home. In fact, a lot
of that might have
to do with that last
home game, a 3029 last-minute vic­
tory over Clarion.
It’s likely no coinci­
dence that the
insertion of Jack
Davis into the start­
ing lineup at quar­
terback has revital­
ized the Boro
attack. The Scots
have scored 30, 38
and 35 points in
Davis’ three starts.
The redshirt fresh­
man plays with a
world of confi­
dence. He has
completed 46 of 92
passes for 560
yards with 4 TDs
and 5 I NTs ... look­
ing for more rea­
sons for the
offense’s resur­
gence - look no
further than TE Rob

mi nmu um ruoair

Barney and TB Stephane Lubin. Barney has emerged as Davis’
favorite target, and at 6’4”, 250 lbs., he is a load once he has the
ball. The Central HS product has a team-leading 23 catches for
288 yards and 2 TDs. Over the last four games, however, he has
hauled in 19 balls. Lubin, meanwhile, started at cornerback the first
five games. He was moved to offense to give Bernard Henry a
break, and has now become an amazing complement to the Boro’s
leading rusher. The diminutive (5’6”) redshirt freshman comes off
his first 100-yard game at Cal, carrying 18 times for 112 yards with
2 TDs. He also caught one pass for 40 yards, and returned 2 kick­
offs for 93 yards, including an 81-yarder for six points. That’s 245
all-purpose yards ... Henry struggled at Cal, gaining just 15 yards
on 12 carries. But it’s hard to fault the junior who has had five 100yard games. He leads the Scots with 809 yards on 176 carries,
with 7 TDs ... the Boro defense was burned for 341 rushing yards
by the Vulcans, dropping from the top spot in the PSAC against the
rush to seventh. Senior LB Dan Caro continued his strong play
with 14 tackles, giving him 65 for the year. That boosts his career
total to 282 hits ... freshman SS Lou Mitchell had 18 stops last
Saturday, a high for a Boro player in ‘99 ... DE Dave Smith, a red­
shirt freshman, posted another sack at Cal, giving him 7 for the
year.

SCGBTIHGTHERGCKETS
You could call Slippery Rock dominant, with a capital D! The
Rockets have won the PSAC West crown the last two years, and
own a 30-game regular season winning streak against Division II
competition. The Rockets have trailed at the half the last two
weeks, but came on strong to make it 18 straight wins over PSAC
West foes. SRU’s lone loss is to Youngstown State, a top-ten team
in Division l-AA... after facing the country’s leading rusher in
Wesley Cates last week, the Boro will have to contend with SRU’s
Dorrian Glenn this week. The sophomore speedster is one half of
the Rock’s tailback tandem. He amassed 295 yards in last week’s
showdown against 19th-ranked Shippensburg, sprinting 85 yards
for the winning score in a 27-21 victory. And he scored 4 TDs in
all. All that despite not feeling well. Glenn has gained 429 yards
the last two weeks, boosting his season total to 899 yards with 10
TDs ... the other back is Stan Kennedy, a junior who has 653 yards
and 10 TDs after gaining 899 yards a year ago ... what makes the
SRU offense special is Randy McKavish. The junior quarterback
has won PSAC West Player of the Year honors his first two sea­
sons, and recently became the Rock’s all-time leading passer. His
numbers aren’t necessarily that noteworthy (240 yards and 5 TDs
rushing, 72 of 145 passing for 1033 yards with 6 TDs and 4 INTs),
but his intensity level and leadership qualities are ... among
McKavish’s targets is D.J. Flick, the PSAC West Rookie of the Year
in ‘98. Flick has 11 catches for 271 yards, a gaudy 24.6 yard aver­
age, and averages 11.7 yards on 20 punt returns, with another TD
... the Boro swept the PSAC West awards a year ago, with Brian
Polk capturing Defensive Player of the Year accolades. A 5’9” cor­
nerback, he was a second team All-American a year ago ... in all,
SRU returned five All-PSAC West first team performers on offense - three on the line - and one on defense.

SLIPPERY ROCK HAS LOCAL FLAVOR
Credit much of Slippery Rock’s success to harvesting a bountiful
crop in Erie County. The Rockets feature a number of former local
standouts, some who are playing a key role presently, and others
with bright futures. Senior CB Brian Polk, from Girard HS, was the
PSAC West Defensive Player of the Year in 1998, and was a con­
sensus preseason All-American. He has 40 tackles, 5 INTs and 6
passes broken up. Another defensive standout is senior Casey
Vogt. A defensive end from Harbor Creek HS, Vogt has 33 tackles,
including 6 sacks. He is the second member of the Vogt family to
star at the Rock, following brother Chad, who quarterbacked the

HS is the backup at free safety. On the offensive side, former
Mercyhurst Prep standout Jaime Kaiser is a 6’4”, 270 lb. junior who
starts at left tackle. His backup is Jerry Baker, a junior from Corry
HS. As for the future, Lincoln Bufalino, from nearby General
McLane HS, is a reserve defensive back, as is East HS freshman
Bryan Gore.

NEXT WEEK

The Fighting Scots will play their final home game of the 1999 cam­

at Sox Harrison Stadium is slated for 1:00 p.m.

Dear Friends of the Fighting Scots:

EDINBORO UNIVERSITY ATHLETIC FUND

First and foremost, I would like to once again
personally thank those of you who supported our
inaugural Annual Athletic Fund drive this past
year. I am pleased to announce that over 200
new members joined our Edinboro Family to
make our initial campaign a success. Entering
my second full year as Athleic Director, I wel­
come the challenge of leading Edinboro
University’s athletic program into the new centu­
ryAs we enter a year of additional challenges
for our department and our student-athletes, we
are once again reaching out to the entire
Edinboro community to help support our athletic
program. Our athletic teams are coming off
another successful campaign in 1998-99, but we
could not have done it without the continuous
support of our campus community, alumni and
friends. This year, if you desire, you are invited
to earmark your contribution to exiting endow­
ments here at the University.
Once again, with no state appropriations for
athleti 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 main­
tain 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 educational and athletic oppor­
tunities for our student athletes.
At Edinboro University, we are quite proud of
our past successes and rich tradition, but we
cannot bask in past accomplishments while our
sister institutions pass us by in the world of ath­
letic 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 enter­
tain any recommendations or suggestions which
would better our University and its athletic
department.

FIGHTING SCOT BOOSTER
CLUB’S MEMBERSHIP DRIVE

Organized nearly two decades ago, the Fighting Scot Booster Club’s primary mission
is to provide financial support for the athletic program while promoting community aware­
ness and involvement in the University.
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 its student-athletes. State appropri­
ations are not allotted for scholarships, making the Booster Gub and the departmental fund
raising efforts the sole means of raising money for the athle’tic scholarships.

TOM HOllMAN
Since taking over the Edinboro
University football program in
1988, winning and Tom Hollman
have
become
synonymous.
Hollman ranks as the all-time winningest coach in Edinboro history,
entering his 12th campaign with a
75-41-2 record. In addition to
holding the career record for victories, Hollman's .644 winning per­
centage ranks second, bettered
only by Denny Creehan (.658).

I

January of 1988 as the program's 11th head coach. He previously
served three seasons as the defensive coordinator at Ohio
University. The Fighting Scots posted a 5-4-1 ledger in his initial
season, rallying for four wins and a tie in the final five games.
Edinboro enjoyed one of its finest seasons ever the following
year, finishing 8-3 and ranked seventh in Division II in 1989. The
Scots captured their first PSAC West crown since winning the PSAC
in 1970, finishing with a perfect 6-0 in league play. The lone losses
came to a pair of Division l-AA institutions - Liberty and Youngstown
State - and a thrilling 45-32 setback at perennial Division II power
North Dakota State in the Division II playoffs.
That contest marked Edinboro's first visit to NCAA postseason
action, and also marked the Boro as one of the top Division II pro­
grams in the country.
Following the 1989 season, Hollman was honored as the top
coach in the East Region by the American Football Coaches
Association and was selected the PSAC West Coach of the Year.
Edinboro bettered the '89 campaign in 1990, going 9-3 and win­
ning its first-ever NCAA playoff game. The Scots won at Virginia
Union, 38-14, before suffering a 14-7 setback to PSA.C West rival
Indiana (Pa.) in the quarterfinals. Just three weeks earlier the
Indians handed Edinboro a 36-29 defeat in a showdown for the
PSAC West crown. Edinboro's only other loss in 1990 came to
Youngstown State by four points.
Following a 7-4 record in 1991, Hollman's Scots finished as the
PSAC West runner-up in 1992 and '93, but reached the NCAA play­
offs both years. In 1992, the Scots recorded a 8-2-1 ledger, drop­
ping a narrow 19-15 decision at Ferris State in the first round of
postseason play. The '93 season featured a 8-3 finish and a sea­
son-ending 48-28 loss at New Haven in the first round of the play­
offs.
With a 7-3 record in 1994, the Scots missed out on postseason
action, but they returned in '95, thanks to a 9-2 record and a perfect
6-0 showing in the PSAC West. Following a 44-7 loss at Division IAA power Appalachian State in the second game of the season,
Edinboro ran off eight straight wins to attain a playoff berth. New
Haven again halted the Scots' playoff hopes in the first round with a
27-12 win. Edinboro was ranked eighth in the final NCAA Division
II poll. Hollman was honored as the PSAC West Coach of the Year
for the second time in 1995.
The Scots went 6-4 in 1996, highlighted by a 48-35 victory over
PSAC West champion Clarion. Thafeolden Eagles would go on to

Hollman has guided the
Edinboro program to nine winning
seasons in his first eleven years,
marred only by four-win seasons
in each of the last two years. That
includes five NCAA Division II
playoff appearances, the first ever
for Edinboro. The Fighting Scots have also captured a pair of
Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference titles, in 1989 and 1995,
and have been consistently ranked in the national polls.
Including four seasons as the head coach at Wooster College,
Hollman showcases a career record of 99-52-3. That is good
enough to rank him 22nd among all active Division II head coaches
