Edinboro head football coach Tom Hollman begins his
10th season at the Fighting Scot helm on a mission to
lead the program to another Pennsylvania State Athletic
Conference Western Division championship and back into
contention for the NCAA Division II national title.
The Fighting Scots, who have qualified for the NCAA
playoffs five times since 1989, posted a 6-4 record last
season, playing perhaps the toughest schedule in school
history. While the schedule in 1997 is similar ~ three
Division II playoff teams from a year ago, including the
national runner-up and another national semifinalist ~
Edinboro’s attitude toward success is not.
“Our off-season workouts have been as good as I’ve
ever seen,” said Hollman, the winningest coach in
Edinboro history with a 67-28-2 record in nine years. “Our
players are very unified and driven this year. We play a
tough schedule again, but I think we’ll be ready.”

“We lose two good tackles, but we have some solid
depth up front,” said Hollman. “Jesse Hannan is a fifthyear senior who was really starting to play well at defen­
sive end last year before he got hurt (knee). Dan Keen
played quite a bit inside, and we have some red-shirts we
expect to step up.”
“At linebacker, we have to replace an All-American
(Sims) and two additional starters. But, we have some
good players like Nick Oto, Ed Mattie, and Dan Caro'who
got some great experience last season and continued to
show progress during Spring drills.”
“Overall, we should have good team speed oh defense
and be very sound,” Hollman continued. “What i am most

DEFENSE LED BY TALENTED SECONDARY
“Our secondary should be very solid,” said Hollman.
“We have a first-team All-Conference player returning in
safety Brian Decker. David Sadler also has been in our
program for a couple of years now and he is capable of
having a great season. We also have a few new players
who should make immediate impacts.”
Decker appeared on several All-America teams after
an outstanding junior season, including a first-team selec­
tion by the College

OFFENSE TO FEATURE EXPERIENCED LINE,
NEW QB & REDEDICATED THOMPSON
Edinboro’s offense will feature an experienced offen­
sive line and a new quarterback this season, now that
two-year starter Chris Hart has graduated.
Junior Bryan Smetanka (6-0, 185), who begins his
third season in the Edinboro program, was the Scots
No. 1 signal-caller during Spring practice, but he will be
pushed for playing time by true-freshman Brian Caldwell
(6-3, 220) of Erie’s McDowell High School.
“The fact of the matter is we cjdn’t know who our start­
ing quarterback will be yet,” said Hollman. “What we do

excited about is the fact that we have a disciplined, coachable group of guys. We take great pride in our defense
and I’m very optimistic we’ll continue our tradition of hav­
ing one of the top defenses in the nation.”

know is that we have three or four quality QBs in our pro­
gram and it’s a good situation. There will be quality com­
petition for the job and we’ll see who emerges as the most
consistent leader. They’re all hard-working guys and will
all have a chance.”
With sophomore Joe Peraino moving to wide receiver
during spring ball, red-shirt freshmen Rick Gates (6-4,
210) and Adam Yamal (6-3, 215) also look to challenge
for action under center.
“All of our quarterbacks have strengths,” said Hollman.
“One may have a stronger arm than the next, or one may
read defenses a little better or be more agile. We’ll just
work with them all and see who we’re most comfortable
with in any given situation.”
One thing is for sure on offense: Edinboro’s line will be
more experienced than last year’s unit, which featured
only one veteran starter, three-time All-American Jeremy

’niversi^ ofPennsylvania is proud of the/
Univer'sfty'3^ continued excellence in
academes, ^hletics, and special programs,
and iSypleased to continue its support or the

Scot football program.
The Woody Hayes Award is presented annually by the
Sertoma Club of Columbus, Ohio, to the outstanding man and
woman in each of the three NCAA Divisions for “demonstrated
excellence in academics, athletics, community service and lead­
ership.” Henne received the 1995 award for Division II men.
The award is a living memorial to the high standards of
excellence - both on and off the field - of the former Ohio State
University football coach.
Henne also is in the process of completing a two-year term as a member of the NCAA Division II
Student-Athlete Advisory Committee. He recently attended the first-ever NCAA Division II Student-Athlete Summit in Denver,
where student-athletes participated in the NCAA’s governance process with members of Division M’s Management Council.
As a speech communication major at Edinboro, Henne posted a 3.79 cumulative grade point average. He was a GTE
Academic All-District selection as a senior and a national finalist for an NCAA Post-Graduate Scholarship.
On the field, Henne was a first-team All-Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference pick as a senior after earning second-team
recognition as a junior. He caught 37 passes for 361 yards and seven TDs as a two-year starter. He also was a key blocker for a
team that averaged 224.2 yards per game rushing and 28.7 points per contest. During the fall of his senior year, Henne was
appointed to the NCAA Student-Athlete Advisory Committee and attended the organization’s annual meeting in Dallas. He also
was a key member of Edinboro’s Student-Athlete Advisory Board and served as the sports director for the campus radio station
(WFSE). He was part of a student team that produced an award-winning video on responsible drinking.
“I’ve often said that Todd is one of those people you know will be successful in life,” said Edinboro head coach Tom Hollman.
“He truly exemplifies what college athletics is all about, adhering to the same ideals that Coach Hayes stood for. We are very
proud to have Todd represent our football program and University in the manner in which he has.”

Several former Edinboro University of Pennsylvania football players have
received the opportunity to play professional football.
Three Fighing Scots are currently playing in the professional ranks, including
two members of last year’s Edinboro team. Three-time All-American offensive line­
man Jeremy O’Day and former teammate Jeff Traversy, a defensive tackle, made
the move from collegiate bail to the professional ranks of the Canadian Football
League this past spring while Cleveland Pratt, who finished his career at Edinboro
in 1990, has enjoyed several successful seasons in the Arena Football League.
O’Day is enjoying a productive rookie season in the CFL. The 6-3, 295-pound
offensive lineman was chosen by the defending Grey Cup Champion Toronto
Argonauts last May. O’Day’s versatility earned him a back-up role at offensive
guard and tackle early in the season, but solid fundamentals have won him a start­
ing spot as the season progresses.
Traversy was the third pick (15th overall) of the Calgary Stampeders in the col­
lege draft held in April. The 6-5, 280-pound nose tackle’s pass rush abilities helped
him earn a starting role as well early in the season.
O Day and Traversy both credit the Edinboro coaching staff as keys to their
professional success.
“Coach (Scott) Browning taught me exactly what I needed to know to have a Former Edinboro tackle Jeff Traversy (94) lays a heavy hit
chance to play pro ball,” said O’Day. “When I arrived at camp, I was amazed at how on Saskatchewan’s quarterback in a recent CFL game.
well my techniques and training stacked up against veterans. I certainly appreciate
his guidance and hope people understand what a great coach he is.”
agreed. Coach Hollman and Coach Cronk are two of the most knowledgable men that I’ve ever been around in football,” he said.
They pushed me to the limits and I’m glad they did, because now I’m living a dream and I owe much of my success to them and the Edinboro foot­
ball program.”
Once called the best kept secret in the league,” Pratt has made a name for himself with the Florida Bobcats and the AFL The 5-7 171pound offensive specialist was acquired by the Bobcats in February of 1995, and plays wide receiver and return specialist.
seasons, Pratt has been given many opportunities to dazzle crowds with his blazing speed. It was that speed which
helped him accumulate more than 2,600 all-purpose yards and 24 touchdowns during the 1996 season. Pratt got off to a quick start this year as
he caught 3 touchdown passes and rushed for another in Florida’s 55-27 season-opening victory over the Connecticut Coyotes. His performance
in 96 propelled him into the league’s top 10 in 11 statistical categories (including six top 5’s).
Wde receiver/kick returner Gilbert Grantlin, who played for Edinboro during the 1995 season, signed a free-agent contract with the National
Football League’s Minnesota Vikings in April 1996 and was a member of the team’s practice squad. The 6-1, 182-pound Grantlin played only one
season at Edinboro, but made a significant impact with his big-play ability. The Florida native, an honorable-mention All-American, caught 44 pass­
es for 840 yards (19.1 yards per catch) and eight touchdowns. Grantlin also had 372 yards on 17 kickoff returns (21.8 yard average) and 300 vards
on 28 punt returns (10.7 yard average).
^
Before Grantlin, Mike Kegarise was the last Fighting Scot to play in the NFL. The 6-6, 310-pound offensive tackle, a two-time All-American
signed a free-agent deal with the NFL’s Seattle Seahawks after concluding his Edinboro career in 1993. Kegarise spent the 1994 season on the
Seahawks’ injured-reserve list with a severe knee injury, but was released the following season when Seattle changed head coaches.
Two other former Scots who played under current head coach Tom Hollman also signed free-agent contracts with NFL teams. Offensive guard
Curtis Rose signed with the Miami Dolphins, while wide receiver Ernest
Priester inked a deal with the Denver Broncos. Neither Rose nor Priester
played a regular-season game in the NFL, although Cleveland native Priester
later played for the Cleveland Thunder of the Arena Football League.
Rose and Priester both were two-time All-Americans at Edinboro. The
6-3, 280-pound Rose earned the honors in 1990 and 1991, while the 5-9,
170-pound Priester did so in 1989 and 1990. Priester was the runner-up for
the Harlon Hill Award honoring the NCAA Division II Player of the Year and
the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference Western Division Co-Player of
the Year in 1990. He is Edinboro’s all-time career leader in receptions (148),
receiving yards (3,064), yards per reception (20.7) and TD receptions (35).
A pair of Scots who performed during the Edinboro State College days
- David Green and Jim Romaniszyn ~ played professional football in the
1970s. Both are members of the Edinboro Athletic Hall of Fame, with Green
being inducted in 1988 and Romaniszyn being honored in 1983. Green, a
running back, played for the Cleveland Browns and for the Montreal
Alouettes of the Canadian Football League. An All-American, Green played
for Edinboro in 1975 and 1976. He ranks fifth on the school’s all-time rushing
list with 1,978 career yards in 19 games (104 yards per contest).
Romaniszyn played at Edinboro from 1970-72, earning All-American
honors. The 6-2, 225-pound Titusville native was drafted by the Cleveland
Browns in 1973 as a running back, but was switched to outside linebacker. A
versatile performer, Romaniszyn is the only Edinboro player to finish his

Head Coach Tom Hollman

Head Coach Tom Hollman
After
guiding
the
Fighting
Scot football
program to some of the
finest seasons in school
history,
Tom
Hollman
begins his 10th season as
head coach at Edinboro.
Hollman became the
all-time winningest coach
in Edinboro history two
years ago and enters the
‘97 campaign with a
67-28-2 mark at Edinboro,
compiling more victories
and a better winning per­
centage (.701) than any
coach in Fighting Scot history.
Hollman has guided the Edinboro program to NCAA
Division II playoff appearances in five of the past eight
seasons. The Scots also have captured a pair of
Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference Western Division
titles (1995 and 1989) and have consistently been ranked
in the national polls.
Hollman enters the ‘97 season ranked 10th on the
NCAA Division II Winningest Active Coaches List. He has
compiled a 91-39-3 overall record (.695) in 13 seasons as
a college head coach, including a 24-11-1 mark in four
seasons at Wooster College in Ohio.
Last year, Edinboro recorded its ninth consecutive
winning season, all under Hollman, highlighted by an
impressive 48-35 victory over PSAC West champion
Clarion, who advanced to the NCAA Division II national
semifinals a few weeks later.
Edinboro will take a three-game winning streak into
the ‘97 campaign. The Scots have won five of their past

seven games, with both of the losses coming ih the final
minute against Indiana (Pa.) and Slippery Rock.
Edinboro posted a 9-2 record in 1995 and was the
only program in the 14-member PSAC to record a perfect
6-0 league mark, the second time the Scots accom­
plished the feat under Hollman. Edinboro was ranked
eighth in the final NCAA Division II football poll in ‘95 and
the program received its fifth berth to the NCAA playoffs.
Hollman joined the Edinboro staff in January of 1988
as the program’s 11th head coach after serving as the
defensive coordinator at Ohio University for three years.
Edinboro went 4-0-1 during the final five games of his
first season, then in 1989, captured the PSAC West title
with a 6-0 record and roared into the NCAA Division II
playoffs for the first time in school history.
The Scots lost a thrilling 45-32 decision at perennial
Division II power North Dakota State University, but the
EU program had clearly arrived *as a force in Division II
football. Hollman was honored as the top coach in the
East Region by the American Football Coaches
Association and he also was selected PSAC West
“Coach of the Year.”
In 1990, Hollman guided the Fighting Scots to their
first-ever NCAA II playoff win as Edinboro beat Virginia
Union, 38-14, on the road, to advance to the national
quarterfinals. The Scots then dropped a tough 14-7 con­
test to PSAC rival Indiana University of Pennsylvania.
The Scots returned to the NCAA playoffs in 1992 and
1993 after runner-up finishes in the PSAC.
In addition to team success, Hollman has coached 52
All-Americans at Edinboro, including Elbert Cole and
Ernest Priester, who both placed in the top three in the
voting for the Harlon Hill Award presented to the NCAA
Division II Player of the Year. He also has coached play-

ers who have set school records for rushing, passing, receiving, quarterback sacks, and interceptions.
Hollman is a 1968 graduate of Ohio Northern University, where he was a three-year starter for the football team
and a two-way performer as a defensive back and end on offense. He holds the school record with 13 career inter­
ceptions and earned All-American and All-District honors during the 1966-67 seasons. Hollman also lettered in base­
ball for three years.
Hollman's coaching career began in 1968 as an assistant coach at Sidney High School in Sidney, Ohio. After earn­
ing a master of science degree in education from Xavier University in Cincinnati in 1971, he became head coach at
Greenville High School in Ohio, where he posted an impressive 26-2-2 mark from 1971-73. Hollman then moved on to
Fremont Ross High School as head coach for the 1974-75 seasons, where his squads recorded a 15-3-2 mark.
Fremont was the Buckeye Conference champ in 1974, unbeaten at 9-0-1.
In 1976, Hollman moved on to the collegiate ranks, where he was the defensive coordinator for his alma mater at
Ohio Northern University. The following year, Hollman accepted the head coaching position at Wooster and guided his
squad to the best four-year record in the school history (24-11-1). In 1981, Hollman took an assistant coaching spot
with Ball State University which he held through the 1984 campaign. Hollman held the defensive coordinator position
at Ohio University from 1985 until accepting the head Job at Edinboro in 1988.
Tom resides in Edinboro with his wife, Kandi. They have four children, Mari, Jon, Tim and Denise.

After opening up the season with three straight road contests, the Scots
returned to Sox Harrison Stadium, hosting Shippensburg in the annuai
Homecoming contest, which also was the PSAC West opener for both
schools. With some great fali weather and the home crowd in their favor,
the Scots scored on their second possession as sophomore running back
Gerald Thompson ran off tackle for a two-yard touchdown. In the second
quarter, the Scots turned to the air attack, as senior quarterback Chris
Hart and senior tight end Corey Keyes hooked up for a 45-yard touch­
down that gave Edinboro a two touchdown iead. The Red Raiders added
a fieid goal just before the end of the half to get on the scoreboard, 14-3.
The third quarter belonged to Edinboro as they scored on their first two
possessions. Senior placekicker Ken McCrory capped off a 16 play, 65yard drive with a 21 -yard field goal, then red-shirt freshman Jeremy Brain
hauled in a 53-yard pass from Hart to give the Scots a three touchdown
lead. Senior defensive back Brian Decker put the game away late in the
fourth with a 44-yard interception return for a touchdown, the first of his
career. The win evened Edinboro’s record at 2-2 overall and 1-0 in the
PSAC West.

On the road again, Edinboro took control of the match up against
California early. The Boro scored the first points of the game on a fouryard touchdown run by Gerald Thompson halfway into the first period.
With 2.04 remaining in the first, Denorse Mosley scored on a 91-yard

Terrin Ash to open the second period. Standout Scots’ defensemen
included Michael Sims, who compiled 14 tackles (nine soio) and Matt
Gentile with eight total tackles (7 solo) and two sacks. QB Chris Hart

and he returned it 90 yards for the defensive two-point conversion to get
the Scots within two, 20-18. Last second efforts by Hart to get the Scots
in field goal range were thwarted by the Indiana defense.
Indiana ()
Edinboro (3-4, 2-2)

Edinboro dominated the first three quarters of action and built a 28-7
lead, but Slippery Rock scored 28 points in the fourth quarter to win the
game in dramatic fashion. With Edinboro clinging to a 28-27 lead and
less than a minute to play in the game, SRU’s Scott Whipple blocked a
Tyson Cook punt, which was scooped up by Bret Geishauser and
returned 10 yards for a TD. Edinboro built a 12-7 lead at halftime on the
strength of a Chris Hart touchdown pass to Terry Roberts and a 1-yard
run. Ken McCrory gave the Plaid a 15-7 cushion with a field goal; Tony
Brinson then scored two third quarter touchdowns, including a 77-yard
run, which seemingly gave the Scots enough points for a victory. But the
Rock’s Chad Vogt threw a TD pass and ran one in from 26 yards out to
start the comeback.

Game #7 • October 26, 1996
George P. Miller Stadium, Indiana, PA
Edinboro 18, Indiana 20
Edinboro traveied to Indiana looking to bounce back from the heart­
breaking loss to Slippery Rock and remain in contention in the PSAC
West. Once again, the Scots jumped out to the early lead on a 23-yard
field goal by Tyson Cook and a 45-yard touchdown pass from Chris Hart
to Jeremy Brain. lUP answered with a touchdown of their own before
halftime which made the score 10-7. Tyson Cook then drilled a 32-yard
field goal giving Edinboro a 13-7 lead at the break. After a scoreless third
quarter, James Suber, who had been held in check most of the game,
burst free for an 80-yard scoring run to give the Indians their first lead,
14-13. Another Cook field goal gave Edinboro the lead again, 16-14 with
5:04 to play. Down by two, lUP drove 69 yards in 9 plays and Suber fin­
ished it off with a 5-yard run to put the Indians ahead, 20-16. A forced
fumble on the extra point attempt was recovered in the air by Tory Hunt,

Game #8 • November 2, 1996
Sox Harrison Stadium, Edinboro, PA
Edinboro 38, Cheyney 6
A familiar mixture of light snow and Sox Harrison Stadium welcomed the
Scots back to Edinboro for a PSAC cross-over game versus Cheyney.
The Scots put together two solid haives of 16 and 22 points, respective­
ly, and roledi to a 38-6 victory over the Cheyney Wolves. After a score­
less first period, Cheyney came out early in the second and scored on a
7-yard pass from Appolo Wright to Dana K^th. A safety by Cheyney’s
Wright put Edinboro on the scoreboard midway into the second period.
Just seconds later, Denorse Mosely ran the kickoff back 64 yards and the
TD, establishing the lead for Edinboro. The Boro scored again before
the end of the first half, as Chris Hart and Tony Brinson worked for a 2yard TD pass, and Hart connected with Corey Keyes for the two-point
conversion. On a snow-covered field in the second half, Brinson led the
Scots in a impressive display with two additional touchdown runs, as well
as a pair of two-point conversion runs. Brinson finished the game with a
career-best 248 yards rushing.

Two Edinboro University of Pennsylvania football
players have been finalists for the Harlon Hill Award,
presented annually to the top player in NCAA Division II
football.
Former Edinboro running back Elbert Cole was one
of three Harlon Hill finalists in 1989, while former Fighting
Scot wide receiver Ernest Priester was a finalist for the
award in 1990.
Cole placed third in the 1989 balloting, which was
won by Texas A&l University running back Johnny Bailey,
a three-time recipient. Priester was runner-up to North
Dakota State University quarterback Chris Simdorn in
1990 when the Bison claimed the Division II national title.
Cole also was selected an All-American in 1989,
receiving first-team honors from Kodak, second-tearri
recognition from Football Gazette and third-team status
from the Associated Press.
|
He rushed for 1,507 yards and set Pennsylvania
State Athletic Conference records for touchdowns in a
season (24) and points in a season (148). Cole led

Ernest Priester, 1990 Harlon Hill Finalist

Edinboro to a PSAC West title, an 8-3 overall record and
a No. 7 ranking in the final NCAA Division II national poll.
Cole finished his Edinboro career with 3,341 yards
rushing and 40 rushing touchdowns, ranking him third
and second respectively in school history.
Priester was the Pennsylvania State Athletic
Conference Western Division Co-Player of the Year in
1990. He also was an All-American, receiving first-team
honors from Kodak, the Associated Press and Football
Gazette. Priester caught 47 passes in 1990, totaling
1,102 yards (23.4 yards per catch) and 15 touchdowns.
He led Edinboro to the NCAA Division II quarterfinals and
a 9-3 overall record.
Priester also had an outstanding season in 1989,
catching 49 passes for 1,128 yards (23-yard average)
and a school-record 16 touchdown receptions. He is
Edinboro s all-time career leader in receptions (148),
receiving yards (3,064), yards per reception (20.7) and
touchdown receptions (35). Following his career at
Edinboro, Priester signed a free-agent contract with the
National Football League’s Denver Broncos. He later
played for his hometown Cleveland Thunder of the Arena
Football League.
The Harlon Hill Award is named in honor of legendary
Chicago Bears wide receiver Harlon Hill, who was an AllAmerican at the University of North Alabama. The award
is selected each year by NCAA Division II sports infor­
mation directors.

Edinboro University of Pennsylvania took a historic step in its athletic program 15 years ago with the induction of
18 individuals into its newly created Athletic Hall of Fame. In 1982, the university honored 18 charter members who
had distinguished themselves through their associations with athletics at Edinboro University, either by virtue of their
performances, or by their meritorious efforts on behalf of the university’s athletic program.
More than 100 former Edinboro University student-athletes, coaches, administrators and supporters of the athlet­
ic program have since been awarded this honor.
The Fighting Scot athletic department takes special pride each April by honoring new members with their induc­
tion into the Hall of Fame. Each inductee or representative is presented a plaque, which identifies his or her service
to the university. A duplicate plaque is placed in the Athletic Hall of Fame trophy case located in the lobby of McComb
Fieldhouse.
Additionally, Edinboro University also honors its annual Outstanding Athletic Contributor, Coach of the Year and
top senior athletes at the Hall of Fame Banquet. Student athletes are also awarded varsity letters at the banquet.
To nominate an individual for induction to the Hall of Fame, contact Shawn Ahearn, Coordinator of Sports
Information, at (814) 732-2776 extension 234.
