The Hollman Era Continues 1988-1994
"I like the shape of our program. Our goal was to
establish a winning program and have fun in the pro­
cess. I feel we have done that. We continue to improve
on the field and in the classroom - we want to contin­
ue to bring a special type of student-athlete to Edinboro University. It is time to take the next step and
take our program to the elite level among Division II
schools. Each year, we feel that we can play with any
team in the country."

President Foster F. Diebold
Now in his fifteenth year as pres­
ident of Edinboro University of Penn­
sylvania, Foster F. Diebold is the
fourteenth chief executive officer of
the institution of higher learning that
has come to acclaim in the last
decade as one of Pennsylvania's and
the nation's finest. He has brought a
vigorous educational and moral lead­
ership, a strengthening of the spirit of
community, a clear sense of direction
and purpose, and a dimension of
multicultural pluralism and diversity.

Alaska from 1977 to 1979. Before that,
he was executive secretary to the
Board of Regents and special assis­
tant to the president of the University
of Alaska Statewide System. From
1969 to 1976, he was director of
Development and Planning at Kean
College in New Jersey and a member
of the graduate faculty at that institu­
tion; and from 1965 to 1969, he was
assistant superintendent of the Nep­
tune Township (New Jersey) Public
Schools.

Much has been accomplished
during President Diebold's tenure.
The University has returned to finan­
cial health. Significant facilities and
grounds improvements have been
achieved, with several of the historic
structures on campus restored to
their original splendor. Academic
programs have been emphasized and
improved, with more than 100 degree
offerings now available. Enrollment
gains have been unprecedented in
both numbers and academic quality.
International linkages have been
established with institutions in sever­
al other countries, and Edinboro Uni­
versity's program for students with
disabilities continues to garner
acclaim as one of the finest among all
colleges and universities in the Unit­
ed States. Widely recognized as a
leader in education both here and
abroad. President Diebold has posi­
tioned Edinboro University to meet
the challenges that will face public
higher education in the 21st century.

Recognized for his extensive
experience in the field of education
management. President Diebold's
scholarly achievements in the disci­
pline of applied ethics in higher edu­
cation deserve special mention. The
model statement he authored for the
American Association of State Col­
leges and Universities, "Ethical Prac­
tices for College Presidents," was
unanimously adopted by that profes­
sional organization and published as
policy for the chief executives of its
nearly 400 member institutions
nationwide. It is the first formally
adopted ethical practices and policy
statement for higher education presi­
dents.

The Orange, New Jersey, native is
a graduate of Monmouth College and
also holds a master of arts in educa­
tional administration from Seton Hall
University. He has met coursework
requirements for a doctorate in edu­
cation at Rutgers University and is
currently completing the dissertation
requirement for the Ph.D. program in
higher education at the University of
Pittsburgh.
Prior to his presidency of Edin­
boro University, President Diebold
was president of the University of

For his leadership on an interna­
tional scale and for his many contri­
butions to the advancement of higher
education and enrichment of an
emerging culture in Pakistan, Presi­
dent Diebold was decorated with
prestigious gold medals from three
Pakistani universities. The awards for
educational eminence were presented
during visits to the Edinboro campus
by official Pakistani delegations.
President Diebold was also hon­
ored by the Government of Pakistan
with the awarding of the degree of
Doctor of Laws (honoris causa), pre­
sented at the Government House in
the City of Karachi. The ceremony
was attended by the presidents of the
several Pakistani universities holding
linkage agreements with Edinboro
University, as well as many highranking officials of the Government

Foster F. Diebold
of Pakistan and U.S. diplomatic offi­
cials.
A staunch advocate of a
statewide system of public universi­
ties in Pennsylvania, President
Diebold supported the enabling legis­
lation for the State System of Higher
Education (Act 188 of 1982) and saw
the State System come to existence in
1983 as a member of the transition
team. He currently serves on the Sys­
tem's Executive Council of Presidents
and on the boards of the Pennsylva­
nia Academy for the Profession of
Teaching, the Pennsylvania State Ath­
letic Conference, and the Dixon Uni­
versity Center at Harrisburg.
President Diebold's stature in
American higher education has been
recognized by several high-level
appointments. He was named to the
National Committee on U.S.-China
Relations, the leading national orga­
nization devoted to building con­
structive relationships between the
two countries. He was also appointed
to the Leadership Council of the
Northeast-Midwest Institute, a
regional component of the Center for
Regional Policy, and to the Pennsyl­
vania Humanities Council, the pri­
vate, non-profit group promoting
statewide public understanding of
the humanities.

Head Coach/Interim Athletic Director Tom Hollman
In January 1988, Edinboro Uni­
versity hired Tom Hollman, Athens,
Ohio, as its eleventh head football
coach in the school's history. Hollman
came to Edinboro from Ohio Univer­
sity, where he was the defensive coor­
dinator, This August, Tom was
named interim athletic director,
replacing James K. McDonald who
held the position since 1981.

Tom Hollman

Hollman, beginning his seventh
year, has the Scot program back in
the national spotlight. At Edinboro,
he has earned 45 wins against just 19
losses and two ties and owns an
impressive 27-7-2 slate against the
PSAC Western Division. The Scots
have advanced to post-season play
four of the past five years.
In 1989, he was named the top
coach in the East Region by the
National Football Coaches Associa­
tion and also tabbed the top coach in
the PSAC West. In 1990, he guided
the Scots to their first-ever NCAA II
playoff win as Edinboro routed Vir­
ginia Union and advanced to the
national quarterfinals.
"Edinboro has been a great expe­
rience, and I like the direction of the
program," Hollman said.
"As a coach, I have been fortu­
nate to coach at many different levels,
from high school to Division I. The
Division II level here at Edinboro is
very appealing to me in relation to
my career goals. It is a great feeling to
be a head coach at this level."
Hollman's educational back­
ground begins with a high school
diploma from Memorial High School
in St. Mary's, Ohio, followed by his
undergraduate degree in education
from Ohio Northern University in
1968. Three years later Hollman
received his master of science degree
in education from Xavier University
in Cincinnati, Ohio.
While at Ohio Northern, Holl­
man was a three-year starter for the
football team and a two-year per-

former as a defensive back and offen­
sive end during his junior and senior
years. He holds the school record
with 13 career interceptions and
earned All-American and All-District
honors during the 1966 and 1967 sea­
sons. Hollman also lettered in base­
ball for three years during his stay at
Ohio Northern.
A chronological look at Holl­
man's coaching career begins in 1968
as an assistant coach at Sidney High
School in Sidney, Ohio. From there,
Hollman moved on to Greenville
High School in Ohio where he
became head coach from 1971-73. His
Greenville squads posted an impres­
sive 26-2-2 mark during his threeyear stay.
Hollman then moved on to Fre­
mont Ross High School as head coach
for the 1974 and 1975 seasons, where
his squad recorded 15 wins against
three setbacks and two ties. 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 coach position at
Wooster College (OH) and guided his
squad to the best four-year record in
the school history (24-11-1).
In 1981, Hollman took an assis­
tant coaching spot with Ball State
University which he held through the
1984 campaign. Then, beginning in
1985 Hollman held the defensive
coordinator position at Ohio Univer­
sity.
Tom resides in Edinboro with his
wife, Kandi, and four children, Mari,
Jon, Tim and Denise.

Assistant Coaches
Scott Browning - Offensive Line
Moving to the offensive side of the
ball, from the defensive backfield, Scott
brings a wealth of coaching experience in
his ninth year at the 'Boro. Under his
guidance the Scot defense has intercepted
78 passes the past six seasons. He has
guided the fortunes of All-Americans
Steve Russell, Michael Willis, Wade
Smith, Georj Lewis, and Mike Barnes, and
PSAC Rookie of the Year Mario Houston.
Offensively, he coached former greats
Elbert Cole, Floyd Faulkner and Ross
Rankin.
Scott came to Edinboro from Ohio
State University, where he coached
receivers and running backs. Prior to his
start at OSU, Browning coached at Wor­
thington and Dayton-Fairview high
schools in Ohio, from 1979-81. Then, as a

graduate assistant, he coached the defen­
sive secondary at New Mexico State in
1982.
In 1983, he mentored the receivers at
Idaho State University which advanced to
the Division I-AA playoffs.
Browning earned a master's degree
in education administration from New
Mexico State in 1983, and a BS in educa­
tion from Ohio State in 1981. Earlier,
before transferring to OSU, Scott attended
Capital University where he played foot­
ball for one season. Browning was a fouryear letterman in four sports at
Loudonville High School (OH) prior to
his collegiate days. Scott is married to the
former Lynn Hook, and has a son,
Andrew Scott. The Brownings reside in
Edinboro.

Dan Gierlak - Running Backs
Dan Gierlak enters his eighth season
as a full-time coach with his responsibili­
ties concerning the running backs. He
was formerly the head women's softball
coach for the Scots and led the squad to
the PSAC playoffs in 1990.
Gierlak came to the 'Boro from Thiel
College (Pa.) where he coached the defen­
sive secondary for the 1984 season. Dan, a
starter and three-year letterwinner for the
Plaid in the secondary, moved on to the
semi-pro ranks with the Chicago Cow­
boys. During his short stint with the
Cowboys, Gierlak's squad gained nation­
al championship honors in 1984 and run­

ner up nationally in the 1985 season. Gier­
lak brings both playing and coaching
experience to the staff, giving the Scot
players an added plus on the offensive
side of the ball. As backfield coach, he has
guided former Harlon Hill finalist Elbert
Cole and Boro All-Americans Lester Frye
and Larry Jackson.
Originally from Buffalo, New York,
Dan graduated from Edinboro with a
degree in health and physical education.
He and his wife, the former Amy Adams,
three-year-old daughter, Alexandria Ali­
cia, and 9-month-old son, Daniel "Joey"
Jr., reside in Edinboro.

Tony Elliott - Secondary
Tony Elliott, a defensive back with
the Green Bay Packers from 1986-88,
begins his first season coaching the Fight­
ing Scot secondary. His professional play­
ing experience should be beneficial to an
already strong Edinboro secondary.
"Tony has a fine football mind, and has
been successful as a player and coach. He
comes strongly recommended from oth­
ers in the profession and will be an excel­
lent role model for our players," head
coach Tom Hollman said.
Elliott comes to Edinboro from
Wayne State (Michigan), where he served
as the defensive coordinator and sec­
ondary coach last year. He started at WSU
6

1994 Media Guide

in 1992 as defensive coordinator and
linebacker coach. He began his coaching
career at Alma College in 1990-91, before
coaching at Grand Valley University in
1991-92. His main duties at those two
schools were recruiting and teaching on
the defensive side of the ball.
Elliott is a graduate of Central Michi­
gan University where he majored in
sports studies with a minor concentration
in interpersonal communications. He was
a four-year letterman for the Chippewas
of CMU. Originally from Detroit, Elliott
played at Finney High School from 197982 where he was an All-State performer.

Assistant Coaches

Mark Niswonger -■ Defensive Coordinator/Linebackers
Mark Niswonger, a veteran of the
coaching ranks for 21 years, begins his
seventh year with the Plaid as defensive
coordinator and linebacker coach. Former
understudy of head coach Tom Hollman
at Greenville High School, Mark brings
extensive experience both on and off the
field to the Scot coaching staff. He has
helped mold the Scot defense into one of
the most respected squads in the country
on the Division II level.
His coaching stint began back while
attending Findlay when he was the head
scout for Arlington High School. His first
job after college was as defensive coordi­
nator for Bryan High School (OH) where
the team earned a 9-1 record. The next
two seasons, Niswonger was the defen­
sive coordinator at West Carrollton High
School (OH) where his squad posted an
impressive 17-1-2 slate.

After West Carrollton, he then
returned to graduate school at Ball State
University where he helped coach the
tight ends and offensive linemen.
From 1981-84, Niswonger was the
head coach at Franklin City schools and
was named "coach of the year" in 1982
when his squad won its first league
championship in 18 years. He then
moved on to the collegiate ranks in 1984
at Manchester College as defensive coor­
dinator and then back to his alma mater
from 85-87 as their secondary coach.
Niswonger's education includes an
undergraduate degree in physical educa­
tion and political science from Findlay
and a MA in physical education from Ball
State. Mark and his wife Patty and threeyear-old daughter, Megan Marie, and
eighteen-month-old son, Joushua Jay,
reside in Edinboro.

Scot Success in the Classroom
Under the direction of Tom Hollman,
the Scots have not only excelled on the
field but in the classroom.
Last year the football team had 28
different student-athletes earn semester
grade point averages over the 3.0 mark,
up one from a year ago. Furthermore, the
Scots also increased the number of play­
ers who eclipsed the same standard on a
cumulative basis.
Among the 'Boro's standouts were
1994 graduates Scott Mikowicz and Dave
Ashton. Mikowicz displayed outstanding
work in the classroom, finishing his aca­
demic career with an impressive 3.40
QPA. The height of his studies was exem­
plified with his representation of Edinboro University as an NCAA
post-graduate scholarship nominee. Also
the starting tight end on the football
team, Mikowicz caught 25 passes for 365
yards and four touchdowns. Ashton
earned honors as a national scholar-ath­
lete and as a three-time Edinboro Univer­
sity scholar-athlete, maintaining a 3.22
QPA during his four years at the 'Boro.
He was a starting wide receiver in 1993,
catching 26 passes for 334 yards and three
touchdowns.
Several 1993 graduates earned lau­
rels on and off the field during their
careers at Edinboro. Sean Seibert and
Brian Heebsh were both recognized as
national scholar-athletes by College Foot­
ball Preview magazine a year ago, while
All-Americans Georj Lewis and Mike
Barnes were nominated for NCAA
minority post-graduate scholarships.

1994: Building a Tradition
Before the arrival of Tom Hollman in
1988, the Fighting Scots knew that their
football program needed a lift. What they
didn't know was that under Hollman's
direction, their lift would quickly become
a significant elevation.
Edinboro has taken its program to
national prominence, and in 1994 will
aim to reach the NCAA II playoffs for the
fifth time in the past six seasons. Last
year, the Scots earned their second
straight post-season appearance while
posting another eight-win (8-3) season.
With all three hard fought losses coming
at the hands of nationally-ranked oppo­
nents, the Boro was strong enough to fin­
ish the year ranked #14 among the
Division II elite.
This upcoming season should be a
good measure of just how successful the
Edinboro tradition has become. Gradua­
tion took 11 starters, many of whom
spent multiple seasons at the top of the
depth chart. And while the good fortune
has been enjoyed, it has not gone unno­
ticed. The Scots will have to carry on the
tradition without both former offensive
line coach Ed Stults, who assumed the
head coaching duties at Defiance College
(OH), and former defensive line
coach/recruiting coordinator Gene Smith,
who now works as an NFL BLESTO
scout.
The quest for a third straight post­
season berth in 1994 will not be easy with
another rugged 10-game schedule. The
PSAC West slate is more balanced than
ever, while, furthermore, the Scots face
formidable non-conference foes in Hills­
dale (MI), Elizabeth City and American
International, and Mansfield.
The Plaid will host five games and
play five on the road in 1994, including
the visitors role in two straight contests to
begin the year. In a strange twist of for­
tunes, the Boro has been a terror away
from home the past two years. Since the
start of the 1992 campaign, Edinboro has
gone 10 straight regular season road
games without a loss while posting seven
wins and three setbacks at Sox Harrison
Stadium.

campaign in which he set single season
standards for yards (2,209), touchdowns
(25), and attempts (277). The Scots have
compiled an impressive 23-9-1 record
during his string of 33 consecutive starts.
Larry Jackson, one of the best tail­
backs in Edinboro history, also returns for
his senior season. The 1992 PSAC West
Player of the Year returned from early
season injuries to amass 1,171 yards and
eight touchdowns in 1993. Jackson's 2,577
career rushing yards puts him within 823
yards of the Boro's all-time mark. Full­
back Chris Snyder, both a tough runner
and punishing blocker, will solidify the
Plaid backfield.
When the Scots go to the air, they'll
look in the direction of wide out Lateef
Walters (23 receptions, 550 yds., 6 TDs)
who gives them plenty of big-play experi­
ence.
Offensive Line
The Boro is strong up the middle,
with returning guards Det Betti and Jere­
my O'Day. Betti may be asked to play
center to make room for either Chadd
Wallick or Otha Davidson, both of whom
have started in big games during their
careers. On the outside, they must some­
how replace former All-PSAC tackles
Mike Kegarise and Tony Tighe. Todd
Henne caught four touchdowns last sea­
son and could get the nod at tight end.
Defensive Line
With only one returnee from last
year's squad, ^e defensive front could be
a big question mark. All-Northeast
Region defensive end Pat Schuster looks
to duplicate a spectacular 1993 campaign
in which he had 76 stops and 11 sacks.
Playing opposite Schuster could be con­
verted linebacker and special teams
standout Bryan Lambert (59 tackles).
The main concern is plugging up the
middle with the departure of All-Ameri­
can tackle Russell Cray and linemate Rob
Harmer. Matt Gentile played well last
year when injuries put him into a starting
role. The other tackle spot will be up for
grabs when the fall practice sessions get
underway.

Skill Positions
Linebackers
Quarterback Jody Dickerson will
head the offense for the fourth straight
season. On pace to break several Edin­
boro career passing records, the PSAC
West first-teamer, and honorable mention
All-American, returns after a stellar 1993

Michael Edwards will spearhead a
linebacking crew who all return as former
starters. The two year backer recorded
127 tackles and six break-ups en route to
a PSAC West Second Team selection a

year ago. Another great season from
Edwards could vault him into the Boro's
top ten in career tackles. Michael Sims, a
1993 redshirt, will be asked to fill the big
shoes of three-time All-American middle
linebacker Jason Perkins. Sims had an
impressive freshman season two years
ago in which he had 84 stops at one of the
outside positions. Rahshahn Alston will
be expected to round out an excellent core
of linebackers in 1994. Only a freshman
last year, Alston gained experience as a
starter, totaling 69 tackles from the out­
side.
Secondary
The Boro returns three-fourths of a
defensive backfield that terrorized quar­
terbacks for 22 interceptions last season.
All-American safety Steve Russell will
lead the talented unit. One of the best ath­
letes on the team, Russell is a school
record holder with 14 interceptions. Last
season the All-American and PSAC West
first teamer stole seven aerials and regis­
tered 68 tackles. Also feared for his hit­
ting ability, Russell has forced six fumbles
over his stellar career.
Marty Williams and Rick Walker also
return after starting all eleven games last
season. Walker accounted for 46 tackles,
five break-ups, and one interception from
his free safety position while Williams, a
comerback, recorded 61 tackles, 10 break­
ups, two interceptions and a blocked
pimt. Both returnees caused two fumbles
and recovered another in 1993. Corners
David Harris and Ron Allen both saw
action throughout the past season and are
expected to compete for more playing
time this year.
Specialties
Place-kicker Scott Rupert, a Boro
mainstay the past two years, returns to
handle the kicking chores for yet another
season. In 1993 Rupert set an Edinboro
single season record by connecting on 43
of 45 PAT tries. Five of his 11 field goal
attempts were also true, including a
career best 44 yarder.
The Boro will have a new punter in
1994 for the first time in four years due to
the graduation of All-American Gary
Lhotsky. The vacancy remains up for
grabs as camp starts in August.
Walters is likely to be the Scots' top
punt return threat while Russell averaged
over 24 yards per kickoff return last sea­
son, including a 92-yarder for a score at
Slippery Rock.

1993 Season in Review
Ferris State 23 - Edinboro 9
Edinboro turned the ball over five times, in losing to the Bulldogs for
the second consecutive time. The opening game setback followed a loss to
Ferris State in the first round of the 1992 Division II playoffs.
Mike Brooks intercepted a Jody Dickerson pass and returned it 25
yards for a touchdown with just over two minutes remaining in the first
quarter, giving Ferris State a 10-0 lead.
The Scots were not able to get on the scoreboard until early in the
third quarter when Marty Williams returned a blocked extra point
attempt 85 yards for two points following a Bulldog 21-yard pass from
Bill Love to Dave Underwood.
Edinboro was able to make the game close when Terrence Williams
completed a 13-yard touchdown pass to Corey Hill early in the fourth
quarter, cutting the Bulldog lead to 16-9. Ferris State scored the final
points of the game on a Tim Kehoe touchdown reception from Love.
The Scots outplayed Ferris State throughout the game, gaining 295
total yards, while the Bulldogs managed only 199. Although Edinboro
had possession for over 36 minutes, they had trouble putting the ball in
the end zone.

Edinboro 34 - Elizabeth City 27
After falling behind 7-3 in the first quarter, the Fighting Scots outscored Elizabeth City
17-0 in the second quarter, and were able to survive a fourth quarter rally to earn their first
victory of the 1993 season.
The Scots scored first, as Scott Rupert kicked a 35-yard field goal just over four minutes
into the game. Elizabeth City coimtered when Derrick White caught an 18-yard pass from
Shawn Walker.
However, the Scots dominated the second quarter. Dave Ashton caught a 15-yard touch­
down pass from Jody Dickerson with under 12 minutes to play in the half. Chris Snyder
scored six minutes later on a one-yard run. Rupert added a 22-yard field goal late in the half
to give the Scots a 20-7 lead.
After Abe Jones scored on a one-yard run for Elizabeth City, Terry Roberts caught a 79yard touchdown pass from Dickerson to give Edinboro a 27-13 lead midway through the
third.
Malcom Mackey scored on a six-yard run early in the final quarter and White caught a
25-yard pass from Kenny Crump late in the game to give the Boro faithful a scare. Marcus
Griffin split the Viking scores with a seven-yard touchdown pass from Dickerson.

Edinboro 28 - Buffalo 17
Jody Dickerson threw for 212 yards and two touchdowns, and
Corey Hill rushed for 113 yards, as Edinboro used a 21-point first
half to notch its second victory of the season.
Dickerson opened the scoring with a 37-yard touchdown on
Edinboro's opening possession of the game, capping a 78-yard
drive.
After Buffalo kicked a 25-yard field goal, Edinboro registered
another long scoring drive. Dickerson passed for 43 of the 73 yards,
with Hill capping the long drive with a two-yard scoring plunge.
The Scots then scored midway through the second quarter on a
10-yard pass from Dickerson to Marcus Griffin. Dave Ashton's 37yard reception highlighted the 89-yard drive.
After Edinboro stopped the Bulls on their opening drive of the
second half, the Scots took only two big plays to score their fourth and final touchdown of the game. Hill ran for 37 yards on the first
play and Terry Roberts caught a 26-yard pass from Dickerson.
The Bulls scored once in each of the final quarters to account for the final score. The Scots gained 438 total yards, only three more
yards than the Bulls, but only turned the ball over twice.

The State System of Higher Education
/

Chancellor James H. McCormick

The state universities spent the
first 100 years of existence train­
ing teachers for Pennsylvania's
schools. The Normal School Act
of 1857 established regional
teacher training institutions
throughout the Commonwealth.
The School Code of 1911 called
for the state purchase of all nor­
mal schools, and by 1921 the pre­
sent configuration of 14
state-owned universities was
established. The 14 normal
schools evolved from state nor­
mal schools, to state teachers col­
leges, to state colleges. On
November 12, 1982, Act 188 was
signed into law establishing on
July 1, 1993 the Pennsylvania
State System of Higher Educa­
tion. Thus, the 13 former state
colleges joined with Indiana Uni­
versity of Pennsylvania to
achieve university status. The
universities have a cumulative
history of 1,600 years.

/

There are J4 universities in the
State System of Higher Education
with four branch campuses and
the McKeever Environmental
Center.

/

The total student population
among the System universities is
95,000. While 89% of students are
from Pennsylvania, they repre­
sent many other states and for­
eign countries.

/

The total university campus has
over 4,000 acres in 19 Pennsylva­
nia counties. Buildings for class­
rooms, residences, administration
and student support number 719.

/

Collectively the 14 universities
offer 217 undergraduate and 107
graduate degree programs, led
by 5,500 full-time faculty mem­
bers.

/

An average 75% of undergradu­
ate students receive some form of
financial assistance to help meet
costs.

/

Several study abroad programs
are available in System universi­
ties.

/

All the universities support life­
long learning programs through­
out the academic year. Many
feature Elderhostel.

/

Most universities have honors
programs, student counseling
and career plarming, cooperative
education, and internship pro­
grams.
