Sox Harrison Stadium

Sox Harrison Stadium serves as the home of the Fighting Scots.
Dedicated in 1965, the stadium honors the memory of B. Regis “Sox”
Harrison, the head football and basketball coach at Edinboro University
for 34 years. Sox Harrison was the key figure in the building of

Edinboro’s athletic program, unselfishly devoting 34 years of service to
the University as an athletic director, coach and physical education
instructor. Appropriately, he was the first member inducted into the
Edinboro Athletic Hall of Fame in 1982.
Harrison coached the Fighting Scot football team from its inception
in 1926 to 1938, then returned to guide the gridders in 1941 and ‘42. In
addition, he guided the men’s basketball team for 23 seasons, from 192853, winning 175 games.
Sox Harrison Stadium seats 6,000 people in its two grandstands,
along with plenty of standing room. In addition to press boxes on both
sides of the stadium, the facility has locker rooms, a training room and
complete amenities for fans.
The stadium has undergone several renovations, including a new
sound system and improved handicapped access areas in 1999. In 1997, a
new grandstand was constructed on the visitor’s side of the field, adding
2,500 permanent seats, along with a press box, locker rooms and a train­
ing room.
In addition to the football field, the facility contains complete track
facilities.

In Memory of Bill McDonald
The 2002 Edinboro University Eootball
Media Guide is dedicated to the memory of
Bill McDonald. Edinboro’s football coach
from 1969 to 1978, McDonald passed away on
March 10, 2002.
In his ten seasons as head coach, McDonald
compiled a record of 54-36-7, ranking second
to Tom Hollman in career wins. His 1970 and
‘71 squads posted back-to-back 9-1 seasons,
with the ‘70 edition possibly the greatest grid­
iron team ever at Edinboro. The Scots won
their first nine games, including a 14-6 win
over West Chester for the school’s only PSAC
Championship. Westminster handed Edinboro

a 20-7 defeat in the NAIA National Semifinals.
Edinboro was awarded the Lambert Bowl, emblematic of the top
small college program in the East. McDonald was honored as the
Football Writers Association Coach of the Year in the East, while the
NAIA Area VIII and District 18 coaches, as well as the Pennsylvania
Collegiate Press Association, also recognized him as Coach of the Year.
The Scots returned to the PSAC title game a year later, dropping a
35-14 decision to West Chester. McDonald’s 1975 team also reached the
PSAC Championship, losing to East Stroudsburg, 24-20, to finish at 8-3.
Bill McDonald was 72 when he passed away. Survivors included his
wife, Joanne, two daughters, Amy Mulligan and Johanna Elgin, and one
son, David McDonald. He remained a loyal follower of the Eighting
Scots throughout the years, and his presence will be sorely missed.

2002 Edinboro University Football ♦Pagel

Head Coach
Ion
Topper
Veteran Division I mentor Lou
Tepper was appointed the 12th
head football coach at Edinboro
University, officially taking charge
of the Fighting Scot program on
January 5, 2000.
Tepper inherited an Edinboro
program which had won just
eleven games in the previous three
seasons. The Scots have shown
consistent improvement in “Coach
Tep’s” two years. The 2000 season
brought a 5-6 record, matching the
Edinboro record for wins by a firstyear head coach, and a fifth place
PSAC finish. Three of the losses,
however, were lopsided. In 2001,
Edinboro finished with a deceiving 4-6 record. The Fighting Scots
were competitive in every contest and finished third in the PSAC.
The victories included a stunning 14-7 upset over 17th-ranked
Slippery Rock.

Background
Tepper, a native of Keystone, PA, returned to the Division II
level after coaching at Division I institutions for almost thirty
years. He is renowned as a defensive coaching genius, with a
resume that

outs. In addi­
tion, he has worked with some of the top head coaches in the
country, including Bill Dooley at Virginia Tech, Bill McCartney at
Colorado, John Mackovic at Illinois and Gerry DiNardo at LSU.
"Being a native of western Pennsylvania, it has been neat to be
a head coach again and to be a head coach in this environment,"
Tepper related following his first season at Edinboro. "I've recruit­
ed western Pennsylvania for half of my career. It’s a joy to be
back home."
Tepper completed his second full season as the defensive coor­
dinator at Louisiana State University in 1999. He began his tenure
with the Tigers on December 15, 1997, helping LSU to a 27-9
Independence Bowl win over Notre Dame. All told, he has served
as a defensive coordinator for 19 of his 35 years in the coaching
profession.

Head Coach
Big Ten Head Ceach

The 56-year-old Tepper was appointed the head coach at the
University of Illinois on December 13, 1991, just prior to the
team's appearance in the John Hancock Sun Bowl. He replaced
Mackovic, who left for the head coaching position at the
University of Texas. During his five year stint as the Fighting
mini head coach, Tepper compiled a record of 25-31-2, including
two more bowl appearances. He guided Illinois to a pair of wins
over Ohio State, including one at Columbus; the school's first vic­
tory in Ann Arbor against Michigan in 27 years; and three consec­
utive wins over rival Iowa by a combined score of 122-17. Just as
impressive, Tepper graduated 91 percent of his seniors.
Tepper joined the Illinois program in 1988, serving as the
defensive coordinator for four seasons and assistant head coach for
two years. In his nine seasons at Illinois, he helped the program to
six bowl invitations, one Big Ten title and top ten rankings in the
AP and UPI polls.
He was honored as the Big Ten's top defensive assistant coach
in 1990 by The Sporting News. His defensive units annually
ranked among the best in the country, finishing 10th in 1989, 14th
in 1993, ninth in 1994, and 21st in 1995.
Tepper’s 1992 Illini squad finished 6-5-1, suffering a 27-17
defeat to Hawaii in the Holiday Bowl. Illinois went in to
Columbus and upset Ohio State, 18-16, and posted a'22-22 tie
against Michigan in Ann Arbor.
While his ‘93 edition finished 5-6, that included a 24-21 win
in Ann Arbor against the Wolverines. The Illini made it back to
postseason play in 1994, handing East Carolina a 30-0 whitewash­
ing in the Liberty Bowl. The ‘94 squad finished 7-5, again upset­
ting one of the elite in the Big Ten. And once again it was on the
road, as Illinois shocked Ohio State, 24-10, in Columbus behind
Butkus Award winner Dana Howard.

linebackers
While Penn State has
gained the reputation as
"Linebacker U", Illinois could
make a good case for that des­
ignation as well during
Tepper's tenure. He produced
consecutive Butkus Award
winners in Dana Howard
(1994) and Kevin Hardy
(1995). Along the way, he
also produced Big Ten
Defensive Players of the Year
in Moe Gardner and Darrick
Brownlow (1990), Howard
(1993 and '94) and Big Ten
Defensive Lineman of the
Year Simeon Rice in 1994.
For the only time in Big Ten
history, Tepper had four first
team All-Big Ten linebackers
at his disposal. In all, he has
coached over 25 professional
linebackers, and recently
wrote the book, "Complete
Linebacking", a 312-page
comprehensive book on line­
backer play.
Hardy and Rice became
the highest defensive draft
duo in the history of the NFL
draft in 1996 when Hardy
went second to Jacksonville
and Rice third to Arizona.

Page 2 ♦ 2002 Edinboro University footbaii

That stood until the 2000 NFL Draft when Penn State’s Courtney
Brown and Lavar Arrington went one-two.

Pittsburgh
Tepper began his coaching career as a graduate assistant at
Pittsburgh in 1967, then moved on to the University of New
Hampshire from 1968-71, coaching the running backs and line­
backers before becoming the defensive coordinator. His next stop
was the College of William & Mary, where he joined former New
Hampshire head coach Jim Root as the defensive coordinator from
1972-77. The 1976 William & Mary squad posted the school's
best record in thirty years. He was the assistant head coach his
final year at William & Mary.

Virginia Tech
In 1978, Virginia Tech head coach Bill Dooley hired Tepper as
his linebackers coach. Tepper helped build the Hokies into a con­
sistent bowl contender with a defense that annually ranked among
the nation's top ten. He stayed at Virginia Tech from 1978-82,
working with Outland Trophy winner and Buffalo Bills great
Bruce Smith, among others. The 1980 Hokie edition played
Miami(FL) in the Peach Bowl.

Coiorado
Tepper joined Bill McCartney's staff at Colorado in 1983,
serving as the defensive coordinator and assistant head coach until
departing for Illinois in 1988. Tepper helped turn around a Buffalo
defense which ranked No. 100 nationally in yards allowed prior to
his arrival, to one which was as high as 11th in Division I in total
defense. He earned the title of assistant head coach to McCartney
his final two seasons, and helped the Buffaloes to the 1985
Freedom Bowl and the 1986 Blue Bonnet Bowl. Among the assis­
tant coaches at Colorado was Gerry DiNardo, who would later
bring Tepper in to direct his LSU defense.

Wbat attracted yon to EdinboroP
"I was attracted to Edinboro
because I love to coach young
men who are serious about the
game and use football as a tool
to influence them toward positive
academic, athletic and social
behavior. Edinboro was attrac­
tive because of the leadership of
the administration, particularly
that of Dr. Erank Pogue, Dr.
Naomi Johnson and Bruce
Baumgartner. Edinboro has a
location and setting that can
attract quality student-athletes.
Karen and / are both familiar
with this area and the PSAC. We
love smaller communities yet Erie provides many attractions plus
we have entree to three metropolitan areas in close proximity."

Has it been difficult for you to adiust to Division ll footballP
"My biggest challenge has been to create a Division I mindset in a
Division II setting. Sometimes people lack vision because certain
things have been the way they are for so long. It's been really fun
to see players, co-workers and this community expand their hori­
zons to do things with greater expectations. It's been a real joy to
see so many react positively to this challenge. I have found it very
enjoyable and at times down right thrilling."

You were so close a year ago, only to lose tbe final three games
and finish 4-6. is this the year Edinboro tabes a step forward and
snaps its five year losing streabP
“I believe it will be. Our depth and talent level has improved and
we have been able to give consistent teaching with a strong and
stable football staff. In 2000 we were unable to compete favorably
every week. Last season we were competitive throughout the year.
The squad not only expects to win but has paid a price to prepare
themselves to do so. ”

What did last year’s win over Slippery Rock and strong showing at
lUP mean to your programP.
“In 2000 we lost by large margins to both of those nationallyranked programs. One year later we upset Slippery Rock,14-7,
here at Sox Harrison Stadium and then went toe-to-toe with lUP.

EDINBfiiul

Those performances buoyed our confidence and demonstrated that
if we continue to improve our talent and schemes we can soon
challenge for a PSAC title. ”

You made modest improvements statistically on offense last year.
What can be expected offensively this yearP
“We expect to continue our steady offensive improvement. In 2000
we averaged only 14 points a game and improved to nearly 21
points a game last year. We have a very solid offensive front and
expect to run the ball with authority, if our efforts to throw the
ball more effectively are realized, we can take the next step in our
progression and become explosive. ”

How much importance do you place on special teamsP
“Special teams have always been one of my passions because they
account for over 50% of the yardage in a game and yet only 15%
of the total snaps. Eew fans recognize the impact of special teams
and many players don't buy into its significance. Last year our
kicking game dominated several games. We finished sixth in the
nation in net punting and were one of the most efficient punt return
units in the PSAC. We have some marquee special teams perform­
ers who can really change the course of a game. ”

The defense played so well most of the year, it had to be disap­
pointing with the showing in the final three games.
“Our defense improved tremendously in the trenches and the front
seven returns almost intact. We gave up far too many big plays in
the passing game the final three weeks of the season and no cham­
pionship team can perform in that fashion. We must become more
dependable in that area if we are going to be a premier defense. ”

Do you think people are surprised that your recruiting at Edinboro
has centered on freshmen rather than bringing in transfersP
"There are many ways to build a championship program. At
Edinboro, we value TALENT AND CHARACTER as the corner­
stone of our recruiting. If every player that comes into your pro­
gram has character then his talent will be magnified and his
chances of enduring for his entire career are good. We have no
issues with recruiting freshmen or transfers as long as those
requirements are met. In our first classes we have signed many
more freshmen, but the transfers we have attracted are impact guys
and have been very positive influences on our team."

2DV2 Outlook
Depth, Experience Add Up Te iMpping
Feimula Fer Fighting Scets
After five straight losing seasons, head coach Lou Tepper feels it’s
time for his Edinboro University football team to put that behind
them. Tepper can only take credit for the last two, and even those two
campaigns are deceiving.
Tepper’s initial squad in 2000 finished with a 5-6 record thanks to
wins in its final three contests. A year ago, the Fighting Scots ended
the season riding a four game losing skid, sending the Scots once
again under the .500 mark at 4-6.
But the progress made from year one to year two was substantial,
and with another year under their belt, Tepper feels this is the year his
team turns the comer. Consider that the Scots handed Slippery Rock,
ranked 17th in Division II at the time, a 14-7 defeat, and battled
Indiana(Pa.) on even terms for three quarters before falling by a 21-6
score.
“Overall, in the first year we couldn’t compete favorably,” admits
Tepper. “Last year we were competitive. This year, I don’t believe
there is anybody on our schedule we can’t beat.”
Tepper is quick to point out that Edinboro hasn’t yet reached the
talent level of lUP or Slippery Rock, the elite in the Pennsylvania
I—State Athletic
Conference Western
Division the last
decade. But the gap is
closing.
Tepper will wel­
come back 30 letterwinners, but more
importantly, 16
starters return. That
includes five first
team All-PS AC West
performers and two second team selections. A year earlier, only five
Scots total were recognized by the league’s coaches.
While questions remain as the Fighting Scots enter the 2002 cam­
paign, Edinboro has gone from a team seriously lacking in depth to
one with a pleasant problem in terms of quality competition at a num­
ber of positions.
If Tepper’s squad can withstand the first half of the schedule, the
first winning season since 1996 could be on the horizon. Edinboro
opens the season on Saturday, August 31, making the short trip to Erie
to play Gannon. That begins a stretch of four of the first five games
on the road. The Scots close with four of the final six — including the
annual Homecoming tilt versus lUP - in the friendly confines of Sox
Harrison Stadium.

^^Overally in the first year we
didn Y compete. Last year I
think we did compete. This year,
I don 7 think there is anybody on
our schedule we can H beat. ”
Head Coach Lou Tepper

Special Teams
Tepper places a great deal of emphasis on special teams play, and
it was clearly evident a year ago. He is quick to point out that
Edinboro finished sixth in Division II in net punting (38.67 yards),
that the Fighting Scots ranked first in the PSAC in punt catches and
total punt return yards, and that his team is a major threat to block a
kick every game. A year ago, the Scots came up with eight blocked
kicks.
He looks for the special teams to once again play a significant
role, but did depart the spring with some concern. “I didn’t think we
had a very good spring in the kicking game,” Tepper noted. “It was
the worst part of our spring. Hopefully it will motivate us in the fall.”
In Sean McNicholas, Edinboro possesses one of the top punters in
Division II. A year ago, the senior ranked 13th nationally with an
average of 41.4 yards per punt, the second-highest in school history.
That boosted his career average to 40.0 yards.
McNicholas has served the dual role of punter and placekicker the
last three years, but he will likely concentrate on punting this fall.
While ranking among the career leaders in both field goals made and

attempted, he made just 8 of 19 field goals and 16 of 21 extra points
last season.
Geoff Heyl, a transfer from the University of Connecticut, is
expected to handle the placekicking chores, although redshirt fresh­
man Eli Visnick is also in the picture. Heyl served as the Huskies’
regular kicker in 2000, converting 10 of 16 field goals, including a
48-yarder at Boston College, and 22 of 24 PATs.
Tepper has plenty of options in the return game. Lincoln Bufalino
averaged 23.5 yards on 13 kickoff returns, and 7.0 yards on 11 punt
returns. Justin Lipscomb had a promising start at Ashland, returning
three punts for 31 yards before suffering a season-ending shoulder
injury. Alonzo Roebuck and Matt Birkett, a transfer from Wisconsin,
are other possible returners.
The special teams’ biggest loss could be David Holton. Best
known for his long snapping and knack for blocking kicks, Holton
was a rare performer for Tepper, starting on all six special teams units.

Offense
While you probably wouldn’t describe the Edinbofo offense as a
high-octane attack, the Fighting Scots made great strides in 2001.
After ranking near the bottom of the PSAC in scoring offense, passing
offense and rushing offense, the Scots climbed to the middle of the
pack.
Edinboro boosted its scoring average to 20.2 ppg., and the total
offense climbed over seventy yards per game to 329.0 ypg. Most
noteworthy, with a greatly improved offensive line paving the way,
the Scots displayed an ability to control the line of scrimmage on the
ground. Edinboro ranked sixth in the PSAC in rushing at 183.7 ypg.
With eight starters back, it is hoped that the improvement will
continue. But the losses were substantial. Steve Tryon proved a
capable quarterback in his lone year as a starter, and John Williams,
who shared the tailback job, was drafted by the Canadian Football
League. Right tackle Greg Tarbell anchored the offensive line and
was chosen to play in the Cactus Bowl, and Chris Buehner led the
Scots in receiving.
“We have some issues,”
Tepper admitted. “We have
a talented quarterback who
lacks experience, and we
have to get better blocking
from our fullbacks, but other
than that, I think we’re solid
everywhere on offense.”

QUARTERBACK:

with

Steve Tryon and Jack Davis
gone, the quarterbacking job
is in the hands of talented
but untested Cam Marsh. A
sophomore now in his third
season, the 6’1”, 190 lb.
Marsh has seen limited
action, playing in four games
last year and completing
both of his pass attempts.
However, his athleticism was
clearly evident in the spring,
and he proved an accurate
passer.
“Our quarterback does
not have to pull the train,”
stressed Tepper,” merely
conduct us and get us in the
right plays. Cam can make

Page 10 ♦ 2002 Edinboro University Football

2002 OuUook
plays. He’s the best athlete we’ve had behind center.”
Justin Bouch, a 6’3”, 205 lb. redshirt freshman, is expected to
push Marsh in the fall, with 6’ 1”, 215 lb. junior Corey Jensen, a line­
backer a year ago after previously playing quarterback, also in the pic­
ture.

RUNNING BACKS:

For just the second time in ten years, Edinboro
failed to have a 1,000-yard rusher. But the combination of John
Williams and Alonzo Roebuck proved extremely effective. Williams,
who led the Scots with 723 yards and added 14 receptions, has moved
on to the CEL, but Roebuck should be one of the top backs in the
PSAC.
A 5’ 11”, 205 lbs. senior who is in outstanding condition, is one of
the most respected players on the roster. His leadership skills aside,
he gained 671 yards on 132 carries, a 5.1 yard average, with 8 TDs,
despite missing two games due to injury. Roebuck had four 100-yard
games in 2001, including a 151-yard effort in the season finale at East
Stroudsburg. He is also an accomplished receiver, hauling in 13 pass­
es for 132 yards.
Sophomore Brandon Munson averaged 7.8 yards per carry while
gaining 274 yards as a reserve, and has the talent to be a quality play­
er.

Converted fullback J.D. Baker is also in the mix at tailback.
Undersized as a fullback at 5’8”, 205 lbs., the sophomore is a hardnosed player who saw action in five games a year ago.
The fullback position promises to be a battle, with no fewer than
five potential candidates, including a pair of converted players. “I
was disappointed in the fullbacks in the spring,” Tepper pointed out.
“We have to find an answer.”
Former all-state tailback Javar Manning saw the most action at
fullback a year ago, starting six contests. Now bulked up to 240 lbs..
Manning is best known for his running and receiving abilities. He
carried the ball six times for 39 yards, and caught 6 passes for 54
yards. Manning sat out the sprting following shoulder surgery.
Mike Martin, a 5’ 11”, 240 lb. junior, has seen plenty of action his
first two years, but has been plagued by injuries. After battling knee
problems, he missed the spring with a wrist injury. If healthy, Martin
can be a devastating blocker.
Redshirt freshman Nick Phillips, 6’1”, 230 lbs., played fullback
for the first time in the spring. With experience he could prove an
interesting performer.
Nate Eimer, another redshirt freshman, moves from tight end to
fullback, as does Dylan Wessell, who previously played linebacker.
Eimer, 6’2”, 230 lbs., caught the eye of the coaches a year ago in
practice. Wesseel was a standout fullback in high school, and is
regarded as a physical, hard-nosed performer.

RECEIVERS:

Tepper was quick to point out that the most improved
area on the team in the spring was at the wide receiver spots. Though
Chris Buehner and Michael Lowe, the team’s top receivers a year ago,
are gone, Tepper is excited with his receiving corps.
“We have four receivers who are really dependable,” noted
Tepper. “I feel very good about these four. If we are lacking, it’s that
we don’t have an alarming deep threat.”
Leading the way among the wideouts is Sean Hess, a 6’3”, 200 lb.
junior who came on strong the second half of last season. Hess ended
the year with 13 receptions for 198 yards. He is described as a con­
sistent performer and a strong blocker.
Diminutive Lincoln Bufalino is expected to line up alongside
Hess. At just 5’7”, 170 lbs., Bufalino is an exciting player who also
excels as a return man. He caught 9 passes for 167 yards, an 18.6
yard average, with 3 TDs.
Sophomores Jordan Bobitski and Justin Lipscomb will push for
playing time. Bobitski is similar size-wise to Hess at 6’2”, 185 lbs.,
and made great strides in the spring after catching just one pass last
year. Lipscomb, another player with excellent return skills, missed
the last nine games after suffering a broken collarbone at Ashland.
Tepper is hoping that Division I transfers Matt Birkett and Jerry
Roquemore will emerge as needed deep threats. Birkett attended
Wisconsin last year but did not play for the Badgers. He played with
John Williams at Rhode Island, and hauled in 52 passes for 788 yards

with 5 TDs in 1999. The
5’H”, 175 lb. junior possesses
plenty of speed. Roquemore is
even faster, running a 10.37
100 meters in high school. He
last played at Washington State
in 1998, catching 14 passes
while starting the last six
games.
Senior Mike Miodus, soph­
omore Jay Ulmer, and redshirt
freshman Jeff Dinger are other
candidates at wide receiver.
Edinboro entered the 2001
season with a large hole at tight
end. Though just freshmen,
the tandem of Ed Brown and
C.J. Trivisonno has turned tight
end into a strength. At 6’4”,
250 lbs.. Brown is renowned
for his blocking skills.
Trivisonno is also 6’4”, 250
lbs., and is the stronger receiv­
er. He caught 8 passes for 70
yards.
Junior Pete Gaylord (6’1”,
214 lbs.) is a hard-nosed com­
petitor and turned in a strong
spring performance.

OFFENSIVE IINE: Tepper

spent his first spring lamenting
the lack of depth on the offen­
sive line. Now as the Scots
enter the 2002 campaign, the
offensive line is not only two
deep, but had three players
earn All-PSAC recognition.
Joe Valvoda and Brandon
Nicodemus return as first team
performers at center and guard,
respectively.
Valvoda, a 6’2”,
295 lb. junior,
is an intelligent
player with
excellent feet.
Nicodemus
proved his
toughness a
year ago, play­
ing through a
painful shoulder
injury which
kept him out of
springs drills.
At 6’3”, 275
lbs., tbe senior
is the lightest of
the linemen, but
runs the best
and is outstand­
ing at pulling.

2002 Edinboro Unhrerolty Football ♦Pagotl

The 2002 Hohtlno Scots

2002 OuflOOk
and sophomore David Beck (6’5”, 290 lbs.) are also returning starters.
Tepper felt Peluso, the starter at right guard, was the team’s best
offensive lineman in the spring. He described him as quick, strong
and nasty. Beck joined the starting lineup at left tackle midway
through the season and performed well.
Jason Oman is expected to step into the opening at right tackle. A
starter in all 11 games at left tackle in 2000, Oman missed the 2001
season due to ankle surgery. He put the time to good use, practically
living in the weight room. The junior now puts 312 lbs. on his 6’4”
frame. He is a strong, physical run blocker.
Brothers Ron and Greg Bzorek are the backups at left and right
tackle, respectively. Ron is a 6’4”, 300 lb. sophomore who transferred
from Slippery Rock this summer, while Greg, 6’6”, 315 lbs., is a redshirt freshman.
Sophomore Karl Shellgren (6’4”, 285 lbs.) will back up at left
guard after missing last season with a foot injury. Anthony Sufra
(6’2”, 280 lbs.), a redshirt freshman, is a top reserve center.

Defense
If not for struggling over the final three games, the defense may
have approached the levels of the previous season, when the Scots
limited opponents to 317.6 yards per game. As it was, the defensive
unit ranked seventh in the PSAC in scoring defense and rushing
defense, but was an alarming next-to-last in passing defense. That led
to several big plays by opponents, most evident in lateseason losses to
West Chester and East Stroudsburg.
With eight starters back, many now working in Tepper’s scheme
for the third year, the Edinboro defense should be strong.
“Overall defensively, the front four, if healthy, is the most physi­
cal we’ve had,” assessed Tepper, “but we’re thin. Our linebackers
run well and have played a lot. The secondary will be key to our
improvement. If they perform well, we will be a very consistent
defense.”

DEFENSIVE IINE: Led by Dave Smith, the Edinboro front four is
very talented. Smith, a 6’3”, 250 lbs. senior, is a three-time first team
All-PSAC West performer, and if the spring is any indication, he’s
primed for his best season yet. He finished second on the team in
tackles with 62, including a school-record 20 for losses, and 8 sacks.
He is tied for fourth in career sacks with 21.5.
“Dave Smith looks highly-motivated, and is ready to have a great
senior year,” predicted Tepper.
“I believe Eugene is the best noseguard in the league,” added
Tepper, referring to Eugene Grooms. A 6’1”, 290 lb. junior. Grooms
anchors the middle of the line. He took part in 40 tackles, 9 for loss­
es. Grooms earned second team All-PSAC West accolades a year ago.
Eric Neavins is expected to start at defensive tackle, with Kyle
Thome taking over at end. Neavins is an extremely talented player
with a knack for making the big play. A 6’3”, 274 lb. sophomore,
Neavins took part in 26 tackles as a reserve. At 6’7”, 265 lbs., Thome
adds plenty of size to the front four. While just a redshirt freshman,
he is a big body who mns well.
The most experienced of the defensive line reserves is Otto
Hoover, who started the first five games last year at offensive tackle.
A 6’3”, 285 lb. junior. Hoover moves back to the defensive side of the
ball after playing there in 2000. He finished with 20 tackles that year
and adds quality depth.
Sophomore Matt Peterson (6’1”, 270 lbs.) moves from tackle to
noseguard after a solid freshman season. Seth Fragale, a former
wrestler who is now concentrating solely on football, backs up Smith.
Though just 6’1”, 215 lbs., Fragale mns extremely well and made a
solid impression in the spring. Kirk Vermillion, a 6’4”, 250 lb. red­
shirt freshman, is another reserve at tackle.
IINEBACKERS: Tepper’s defenses are predicated on strong line­
backer play, and in Foster Johnson and Jermaine Hughley, Tepper
feels he has the best pair of inside linebackers in the PSAC. Now if
he can just keep them on the field together.
Johnson was a first team All-PSAC West performer last season,
and Hughley was as a freshman. Unfortunately, Hughley played in

just four games a year ago after missing three games as a freshman.
When healthy, he is an extremely active player. Hughley had 77 tack
les as a freshman, and 38 last year, with 6 behind the line. He was
named the national co-defensive player of the week for his play in last
year’s win over Slippery Rock.
Johnson more than picked up the slack, leading the team in tack­
les for the second straight year with 86 hits. That included 13 for
losses, 5 sacks, and a team-high 4 passes broken up.
Seniors Chris Wiggins and Paul Amico give the Scots a pair of
experienced reserves on the inside. Wiggins totaled 14 tackles last
year, but has over 100 career tackles. Amico is best known for his
special teams play, but the former fullback took part in 22 tackles last
year and blocked two kicks. Redshirt freshman Diego Matthews is
quick and will push for time.
Former comerback James Cowart is first in line to replace David
Hart at drop linebacker. Cowart has bulked up to 205 lbs., and the
junior will give the Scots a strong pass defender. He had 34 tackles
last year.
The original plan was for Nick Roth to share time with Cowart.
Roth, a 6’0”, 220 lb. junior, is a strong run stopper, but suffered a
knee injury in the spring and is not expected to play this yeqr.
Another alternative is Robert Bums, a transfer from Butler (KS)
Community College. A 6’0”, 212 lb. sophomore. Bums displayed a
great deal of talent in the spring and may develop as the season pro­
gresses.
/

DEFENSIVE BACKS:

The most maligned area of the defense, Tepper
can call on several talented defensive backs, but depth and lack of
experience is a concern.
Jeff Richardson earned second team All-PSAC West honors at
strong safety after totaling 56 tackles, 11 for losses. The 6’1”, 197 lb.
senior led the Scots with 5 interceptions, and has displayed a nose for
the ball since transferring from Hartwick following his freshman year.
Free safety is also in good hands with Jason Gordon entering his
fourth year as a starter. A smart player who knows the defense well,
the senior had 28 tackles in 2001 and is the leader of the secondary.
Senior Tommie Virgies and junior Elliott Page are the returning
starters at comerback. Virgies is probably better suited to play safety,
but finished with 23 tackles and tied for the team lead with 4 passes
broken up. Page has become a dependable comer. He had 33 tackles
and 3 passes broken up.
Junior Nate Armella and redshirt freshman Dario Camacho figure
in the mix, as well. Armella had a great spring, but the coaching staff
is still waiting for the talented Camacho to come on.
Junior Thomas Wallace provides the Scots with a quality backup
at strong safety. He finished with 16 stops, and is a prominent special
teams player. Redshirt freshman Re^s Bums, previously a tailback,
is a player with ability who might be best suited for strong safety.

Jason Cunningham, who would finish with 294
yards in total offense, including 150 yards rush­

Edinboro answered with 23 points in the
second quarter, taking a 23-14 lead at the half.
The first came on a 9-yard pass from Steve

with a one-yard plunge. Cunningham’s 14-yard
TD run and subsequent two-point conversion
pass to Pat Cain knotted the score at 14-14, but
the Scots needed just two plays to take the lead
for good. Freshman Brandon Munson burst 51
yards for his first collegiate touchdown. Jeff
Richardson’s interception of a Cunningham pass
set up Sean McNicholas’ 39-yard field goal as

David Holton, who blocked an extra point earli­
er in the game, partially blocked a Golden
Knight punt to give Edinboro the ball at the 26.
Four plays later, Alonzo Roebuck scored on a
six yard run.
Gannon’s fifth turnover of the day, an inter­
ception by Elliott Page, set up an insurance
score by John Williams.
Though outgained 376 to 346 yards, the
Fighting Scots came up with three interceptions
and two fumble recoveries. Tryon threw for a
career-high 200 yards, with freshman tight end
Michael Lowe catching 4 passes for 64 yards.

Slippery Rock 7
SepuaWeri5,200i
SexHamseH Stadium
Edinboro, PA — With head coach Lou
Tepper telling his team earlier in the week that at
some point a landmark win was needed, his
Fighting Scots went out and obliged with a 14-7
win over 17th-ranked Slippery Rock. The game
was the PS AC opener for both teams.
The Roek came in having won the last five
meetings between the two schools, and had won
23 of its last 24 PSAC West encounters and 42
of 44 regular season contests against Division II
foes.
But Slippery Rock was unable to come up
with an answer to linebacker Jermaine Hughley,
and when John Williams scored on two-yard run
with 11:48 to play, the Fighting Scots took their
only lead of the day. Williams ran for 34 yards
and caught a pass for 17 yards in the 9-play, 59yard drive. He ended the day with 78 yards on
17 carries and caught three passes.
Hughley, meanwhile, keyed a defense which
limited The Rock, the top team in the PSAC in
total offense, to 278 total yards. The Rock
drove into Edinboro territory three times in the
final stanza, but came up empty. Chris Kane
stopped the drive with an interception in the end
zone. Hughley’s sack ended the second march,
and Tommie Virgies recorded his first career
interception with 1:11 to play to seal the win.
Hughley led the defense with 13 tackles,
with 5 for losses and a pair of sacks. Thanks to
the effort, he was named the PSAC West
Defensive Player of the Week and Eootball
Gazette Division II Co-Defensive Player of the
Week.
Alonzo Roebuck, who scored Edinboro’s
first touchdown on a five yard run, ended the
afternoon with his first career 100-yard effort,
gaining 100 yards on 15 rushes.

Ediaboro 6
October21,2001
Oeorge P.MUlerStadwm
Indiana, PA — Prior to the game Edinboro
head coach Lou Tepper equated the Indians to
the bully of the PSAC. The Fighting Scots
bloodied the fifth-ranked Indians but could not
knock them off their feet.
If not for giving up five plays of 30-or-more
yards, Edinboro might well have pulled off the
upset. The first accounted for lUP’s initial
score, a 64-yard pass from Brian Eyerman to
J.R. Thomas. That combination would bum the
Scots all day, as Thomas would finish with 5
catches for 202 yards.
The score awoke Edinboro, however, as the
Scots put together an impressive 14-play, 80yard drive that consumed 7 minutes and 45 sec­
onds. John Williams scored the touchdown on a
one yard run, but the extra point was no good.
An Edinboro fumble recovery at the lUP 45
set up another scoring opportunity. The Scots
used 11 plays and drove to the one, but were
turned back on a controversial fourth and goal
marking.
After holding the ball for 13:12 of the sec­
ond quarter, the Scots had the pigskin for 9:50 in

2DD2 Edinboro University Football ♦Pane 37

the third stanza, but missed a 24-yard field goal.
lUP scored on the first play of the fourth
quarter, set up by a 62-yard pass from Eyerman
to Thomas, then put the game away with an
insurance score with 2:33 to play. The Scots
had one other scoring opportunity, but Sean
McNicholas’ 25-yard field goal attempt was
blocked.
The Indians, while scoring a season-low 21
points, finished with a deceiving 446 total yards.
lUP had just 242 yards until the final two plays
of the third quarter.
The Edinboro offense was hampered by the
loss of Steve Tryon, who went out with a shoulder injury late in the first half and did not return.
McNicholas enjoyed a fine afternoon punt­
ing the pigskin, averaging 49.8 yards on five
kicks.

West Chester 30,

October27,2001
Sex Harrison Stadnim
Edinboro, PA — With a victory moments
away. West Chester stunned the Fighting Scots

by converting a 4th-and-22 play from their .w
own
eight with a minute to play. Seven plays later,
the Golden Rams’ Robert Findora completed his
mird touchdown pass to Brian Bradley this
one
from 19 yards out with 23 seconds to play, c..
completmg an improbable comeback and snapping
hdmboro s six game home winning streak.
^veral inches of snow the night before left
box Harrison Stadium in less than ideal condi­
tion, and gusting winds added to the woes. But
the conditions didn’t seem to bother either team
as they combined for 761 yards and 56 points.
The Findora to Bradley connection opened
the scoring with a 65-yard score. Edinboro
answered with a pair of scores. Jack Davis, mak­
ing his first start of the season, tossed a 21-yard
sconng pass to Lincoln Bufalino, and Alonzo
Roebuck added a two yard run set up by David
Hart s blocked punt.
West Chester would grab a 17-13 lead at the
half, and extend it to 24-13 early in the third
quarter when Findora and Bradley combined on
a 91-yard scoring play.
Back came the Scots, as Davis hooked up
with Bufalino for a 71-yard score, and Roebuck
^
for his second scorewith
7.52 left m the third period. The score
remained 26-24 until Findora found Cory
DeForrest for a 25-yard gain on the 4th-and-22
play, setting the stage for the heartbreaking loss.

Seth Grove StatHum
Shippensburg, PA - Edinboro suffered its
fourth straight road loss thanks to an inability to
take advantage of numerous scoring opportuni­
ties. The Eightmg Scots repeatedly came up
short m the red zone, settling for six field goal
attempts.
*
Dave Brown gave Shippensburg a quick
lead returning the opening kickoff 87 yards for
the first of his three touchdowns. The Fighting
Scots answered with a drive to the Red Raider
10, but only came away with three points on
Sean McNicholas’ 44-yard field goal.
McNicholas would later misfire on a 30yard field goal try, but Josh Geis knotted the
score at 6-6 with a 34-yarder, the first of his
career, with 11:41 to play in the second quarter.
Geis would boot another three-pointer, this

Greg Tarbell continued the tradition of Edinboro Fighting Scots
playing in the Cactus Bowl this past January. For a number of
years Division II football teams have had an all-star game, known
as the Snow Bowl and played in Fargo, North Dakota. In 2000 the
contest was moved to Kingsville, TX and renamed the Cactus
Bowl. The contest features the top small college seniors in the
country. Edinboro has had at least one representative in every
Cactus Bowl (aka Snow Bowl) but one. Here’s a complete list of
the Fighting Scots who have performed in the Cactus Bowl All-Star
Game.

ter, only to wath East Stroudsburg stage several
comebacks.
For the second straight week the Scots
employed by Sean McNicholas and Josh Geis as
placekickers. McNicholas boomed a 45-yard
field goal to open the scoring, with the Scots
adding a safety early in the second period.
Alonzo Roebuck tallied the first of his three
touchdown runs from five yards out as Edinboro
held a 12-6 lead at intermission.
The lead ballooned to 21-6 on a one yard
run by Roebuck and a 37-yard McNicholas
three-pointer, but then the Warriors came alive.
They closed to 21-16 at the end of three quarters
on a field goal and a six yard TD run by Andre
Castiglioni, but the Scots answered with a 19yard field goal by Geis early in the fourth quar­
ter. The three-pointer was set up by a blocked
punt by Paul Amico.
East Stroudsburg knotted the score at 24-24
when offensive lineman Dan Bratton recovered a
fumble in the end zone, followed by a two point
conversion.
The Scots responded with a 10-play, 64-yard
drive to take the lead with 2:56 to play.
Roebuck covered the final four yards, but Geis’
extra point was wide, leaving the door open.
ESU signalcaller Jeremy Palm drove the
Warriors 61 yards, converting a 3rd-and-16 play
along the way. The touchdown came on a 22yard pass to Justin Kondikoff with 1:38 left, and

HARLON Hill AWARD
Two Edinboro University football players have been finalists for
the Harlon Hill award, presented annually to the top player in NCAA
Division 11 football.
Running back Elbert Cole was one of three finalists in 1989, while
wide receiver Ernest Priester was a finalist a year later. Cole placed
third in the ‘89 balloting, as three-time Harlon Hill recipient Johnny
Bailey of Texas A&l captured the honor. Cole earned All-American
honors in 1989, receiving first team accolades from Kodak/American
Football Coaches Association, second team recognition from Football
Gazette, and third team status from Associated Press.
Cole rushed for 1,507 yards and set Pennsylvania State Athletic
Conference records for touchdowns (24) and points (148). He led the
Fighting Scots to the PSAC West
title, a 8-3 record and a number
seven rankins in the final Division
II poll.
Priester was runnerup to North
Dakota State quarterback Chris
Simdorn in 1990 when the Bison
claimed the Division II national
title. Priester was the PSAC
Western Division Co-Player of the
Year in 1990. He was also recog­
nized by Kodak/American Football
Coaches Association, Associated
Press and the Football Gazette as a
first team All-American.
The fleet wide receiver hauled
in 47 passes for 1,102 yards and 15
TDs. Edinboro finished 9-3, reach­
ing the Division II quarterfinals.

Edinboro University has had a history of players performing in the
rofessional ranks, including three players currently playing in the
Canadian Football League.
Three-time All-American Jeremy O’Day is in his sixth season as an
offensive lineman in the Canadian Football League. O’Day played two
seasons for the Toronto Argonauts, helping them win the Grey Cup . The
6’3”, 295 lb. offensive guard was chosen by the Argos in the 1997 supple­
mental draft. He is now a member of the Saskatchewan Roughriders.
Another former Fighting Scot playing north of the border is Jeff
Traversy. The 6’5”, 280 lb. nose tackle was the Calgary Stampeders’ third
pick in the 1997 college draft.
The third former Fighting Scot is John Williams, last year’s leading
rusher. Williams was drafted by British Columbia in the fourth round of
this past spring’s CFL Draft. He led the Scots with 723 yards rushing and
added 14 receptions in 2001.
Several former Edinboro players have enjoyed success in the Arena
Football League, most notably Cleveland Pratt. Though just 5’7”, 171
lbs., Pratt has prospered in the indoor football league. This past season he
played for the Florida Firecats, enjoying an outstanding season. He
ranked among the league leaders in scoring and all-purpose yardage.
Former Edinboro wide receiver Quentin Ware-Bey has also toiled in
the AFL2, playing for the Carolina Rhinos.
A number of other Fighting Scots have made their marks in the pro­
fessional ranks. Denorse Mosely was a member of the Miami Dolphins as
a defensive back for two seasons, and was also in training camp with the
Green Bay Packers a year ago. He spent the majority of his first season
with the Dolphins on the practice squad before being activated for the
playoffs.
James Dumas, a defensive back two years ago for Edinboro, was
signed as a free agent by the San Francisco 49ers in 1999. Gilbert

Grantlin was a free agent signee of the Minnesota Vikings in 1996, earn­
ing a spot on the practice squad.
Mike Kegarise, a 6’6”, 310 lb. offensive tackle, was highly-regarded
by the Seattle Seahawks before
suffering a severe knee injury.
He spent the 1994 season on the
Seahawks’ injured reserve list.
Former head coach Tom
Hollman produced two other
NFL hopefuls. Offensive guard
Curtis Rose signed as a free
agent with the Miami Dolphins,
while wide receiver Ernest
Priester was signed by the
Denver Broncos. Priester later
played for the Cleveland
Thunder of the Arena Football
League.
Edinboro players perform­
ing in the NFL date back to the
1970’s, with both Dave Green
and Jim Romaniszyn playing for
the Cleveland Browns. Green, a
running back, also played for
the Montreal Alouettes in the
CFL. Romaniszyn, a 6’2”, 225
lb. running back, was drafted by
the Browns in the 13th round in
1973, then switched to line­
Dave Green
backer.

Page 64 ♦ 2002 Edinboro University Footliall

Bruce Baumgartner is regarded as one of the
greatest American wrestlers ever, being recog­
nized as the U.S. Olympic Wrestler of the
Century by Globalaxxess.com two years ago
and being inducted into the Wrestling Hall of
Fame this past summer. Now Baumgartner is
building a solid reputation as an athletic admin­
istrator. Baumgartner was named the acting
Director of Athletics in 1997, then was awarded
the job permanently in ‘98.
As the guiding force of the Fighting Scot
athletic program, Baumgartner has initiated the
Annual Athletic Fund Drive, a fundraising proj­
ect designed to provide athletic scholarship
funds. The University is also working on a gender equity program in
compliance with NCAA guidelines.
A four-time Olympic medalist, Baumgartner served as an Edinboro
wrestling coach for nearly 13 years, including seven seasons as the head
coach. He compiled a 70-36 record, including 14-0 dual meet record in
1997, the best finish in school history. The Scots then went on to finish
sixth at the NCAA Division I Nationals, their highest finish ever.

affairs, director of the campus activities center,
and assistant dean of students.
One of Dr. Johnson’s main objectives at
Edinboro is to facilitate a creative and innovative
campus atmosphere. She also looks to lead a
united effort by the University Community to
ensure a well-rounded education for students.
Dr. Johnson earned her Bachelor’s Degree in
Sociology from Moorhead State University, then
completed work on her Master’s Degree in
College Student Personnel from Bowling Green
State University and her Ph.D. in Higher
Education from Arizona State University.
Dr. Johnson and her husband, Earl Jacobs, a
member of the Edinboro Development Office, reside in Edinboro.

Baumgartner affirmed his status as the greatest freestyle heavyweight
wrestler in American history by winning the bronze medal at the 1996
Olympic Games in Atlanta to go along with two golds and a silver. It was
his fourth Olympic medal and record-setting 13th world-level medal.
Baumgartner was honored by his fellow United States Olympic athletes
when he was chosen to carry the American flag for the opening cere­
monies. He won his first gold medal in Los Angeles in 1984, America’s
first in 60 years of super heavyweight wrestling. Next came a silver
medal performance at the 1988 Games in Seoul, Korea, followed by a sec­
ond gold medal in Barcelona, Spain in ‘92 to become the first American
wrestler to ever medal in three consecutive Olympics.
Honored as the winner of the James E. Sullivan Award in 1995 as the
outstanding amateur athlete in the United States, Baumgartner had not lost
to an American wrestler from 1981 through his retirement from competi­
tion in 1998.
As a collegiate wrestler at Indiana State University, Baumgartner won
134 of 146 collegiate matches with 73 falls. He was twice the runnerup at
the national collegiate tournament, then posted a perfect 44-0 mark his
senior year to capture the NCAA crown.
Baumgartner was honored by the NCAA as a “Top V Award” recipi­
ent for his athletic, leadership and academic success. He was later award­
ed an NCAA post-graduate scholarship after earning his Bachelor’s
Degree in Industrial Art Education. He utilized the award to earn a
Master’s Degree at Oklahoma State University, where he began his coach­
ing career as a graduate assistant.
Baumgartner officially retired from wrestling in the summer of 1998,
but still performs a great deal of community service as a motivational
speaker and camp clinician. He and his wife, Linda, have three sons,
Bryan (11), Zachary (8) and Dylan (5).
