Throughout the 2015-16 academic year, the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference (SCAC) will celebrate its 25th anniversary as a co-educational NCAA Division III athletics conference. The conference’s origins date to 1962 when the College Athletic Conference (CAC) was formed to provide an association through which member institutions could compete in intercollegiate sports activities among teams representative of their respective student bodies. A primary tenet of this conference was a shared commit-ment to the priority of the overall quality of academic standards and quality educational experiences. The next evolution of the conference took place prior to the 1991-92 academic year when the league moved to add women’s athletics as part of its sports sponsorship lineup and, as part of this rebirth, changed its name to the Southern Collegiate Athletic Con-ference. The idea behind the SCAC and the commitments made by those charter members in 1991 remain in place today. SCAC member institutions are committed to sponsoring a variety of varsity sports to maximize opportunities for student participation. SCAC schools also operate under the principle that participation in sports should be solely from student interest and enjoyment of athletic competition, and that no financial aid shall be given to any student which is conditional upon athletic ability or participation in intercollegiate sports. SCAC member institutions support students in their efforts to reach high levels of performance by providing them with adequate facilities, competent coaching and appropriate competitive oppor-tunities with students from similar institutions. The SCAC is currently comprised of Austin College of Sherman, Texas; Centenary College of Shreveport, Louisiana; Colorado Col-lege of Colorado Springs, Colorado; University of Dallas of Irving, Texas; Schreiner University of Kerrville, Texas; Southwestern Uni-versity of Georgetown, Texas; Texas Lutheran University of Seguin, Texas; and Trinity University of San Antonio, Texas. The SCAC office is located in Lawrenceville, Georgia, a suburb of Atlanta, Georgia.

During her first year at the SCAC, Mucci helped boost the conference’s online presence, using social media to promote conference awards, events and other miscellaneous announcements. After Mucci took the reigns in September 2014, the @scac_sports Instagram account quickly became the most followed among all Division III conferences (44 total), and the second-most followed among all non-Division I conferences, growing in followers by over 1000%. Mucci also spearheaded the creation of confer-

ence pre-season media guides for eight team sports.

The Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference (SCAC) was founded and began operation on September 1, 1962, as the College Athletic Conference (CAC). Centre College of Danville, Kentucky; Southwestern at Memphis (Tennessee) (now known as Rhodes College); The University of the South of Sewanee, Tennessee; and Washington and Lee University of Lexington, Virginia, were the four charter members of the conference. Later in 1962, Washington University of St. Louis, Missouri, became the fifth member and the CAC remained unchanged until 1972. Following membership changes throughout the 1970s and 1980s, the conference went through restructuring and renaming. With the addition of Millsaps College of Jackson, Mississippi, and Trinity Uni-versity of San Antonio, Texas, in 1988 and Hendrix College of Conway, Arkanasas, and Oglethorpe University of Atlanta, Georgia, in 1991, membership reached a then all-time high of eight. That same year (1991), the conference renamed itself the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference, hired its first full-time commissioner - Stephen P. Argo - and a permanent conference office was established in Atlanta, Georgia. As part of restructuring, the league also adopted its current primary mark and adopted blue (pms 287) and gold (pms 131) as the official colors of the conference. Membership changes continued throughout the '90s. The SCAC added Southwestern University of Georgetown, Texas, in 1993 with participation beginning in the 1994-95 academic year. In 1997-98, the SCAC added both DePauw University of Greencastle, Indiana, and Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology of Terre Haute, Ind., with partici-pation beginning in 1998-99. As part of a year-long celebration in 2005-06, the league celebrated its 15th anniversary as the restructured SCAC. The league adopted a special anniversary logo (pictured left) and as part of the celebration, 15th anniversary teams were selected for all conference sponsored sports. After Rose-Hulman announced its intentions to leave the conference, Austin College of Sherman, Texas and Colorado College of Colorado Springs, Colorado, were confirmed as the 10th and 11th members of the league in 2006 with participation beginning in the 2006-07 academic year. Birmingham-Southern College of Birmingham, Alabama, a former member of the Division I Big South Conference, was approved as the 12th member of the SCAC and began play in 2007-08. Prior to the 2010-11 academic year, DePauw University announced that it would leave the conference. The University of Dallas was quickly tabbed to replace DePauw effective July 1, 2011 - maintaining the league's membership total at 12 institutions. In 2010-11, the league celebrated its 20th anniversary as the restructured SCAC. As part of the celebration, in addition to the use

of a special mark, the league office selected the Top 20 moments for each conference-sponsored sport. Those moments were announced throughout the 2010-11 academic year. After the conclusion of the June 7, 2011 SCAC Presidents’ meeting, the conference announced that seven of its twelve member insti-tutions would be leaving to form a new conference effective at the conclusion of the 2011-12 academic year. The schools departing include founding CAC/SCAC members Centre College, Sewanee-The University of the South, and Rhodes College, in addition to Bir-mingham-Southern College, Hendrix College, Millsaps College, and Oglethorpe University. With membership down to five institutions – the conference’s lowest number since the 1979-80 academic year – the “new” SCAC wasted little time in adding to its membership rolls. In 2010-11, the league celebrated its 20th anniversary as the re-structured SCAC. As part of the celebration, in addition to the use of a special mark (pictured right), the league office selected the Top 20 moments for each conference-sponsored sport. Those moments were announced throughout the 2010-11 academic year. After the conclusion of the June 7, 2011 SCAC Presidents’ meeting, the conference announced that seven of its twelve member insti-tutions would be leaving to form a new conference effective at the conclusion of the 2011-12 academic year. The schools departing include founding CAC/SCAC members Centre College, Sewanee-The University of the South, and Rhodes College, in addition to Bir-mingham-Southern College, Hendrix College, Millsaps College, and Oglethorpe University. With membership down to five institutions – the conference’s lowest number since the 1979-80 academic year – the “new” SCAC wasted little time in adding to its membership rolls. On September 28, 2011, Centenary College of Louisiana, a former American Southwest Conference institution, announced it would be joining the SCAC beginning in the 2012-2013 season. Two more ASC schools will join the SCAC for the 2013-14 season: Schreiner Univer-sity announced their decision on January 23, 2012, and on February 16, 2012, Texas Lutheran University announced it too would join the SCAC. The addition of Texas Lutheran insured that the conference would retain its status as an active NCAA Division III conference as well as automatic bids in nine of its 14 AQ sports, including baseball, men’s basketball, women’s basketball, softball, men’s soccer, women’s soccer, men’s tennis, women’s tennis and volleyball. On the national athletics stage, the SCAC has had its fair share of success - both in terms of team championships (eight) and individual championships (33).

In the days when the league was known at the College Athletic Conference, Chris Fugman of Centre College gave the conference its first individual title with a victory in the 400 IM at the 1980 NCAA Division III Men’s Swimming & Diving Championships, and Chris Trapp of Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology won the men’s javelin at the NCAA Outdoor Track Field national championships three straight years (1984-1986). Nao Kinoshita of Rhodes College won the 1996 Division III women’s tennis singles title, capturing the first individual national title in the SCAC era. Kinoshita also won the 1997 singles title and combined with Taylor Tarver to capture the ‘97 doubles title.Ryan Loftus of Rose-Hulman captured the men’s pole vault title at the 1998 Indoor Track & Field championships. Heather Stone of University of the South-Sewanee claimed both the women’s indoor and outdoor 1,500 meter titles in 2000. And later that same season, the league claimed its first team national championships as Trinity University won both the men’s and women’s tennis titles. In the winter of 2003, Matt Smith of Rose-Hulman won the 100 yard breaststroke at the Division III men’s national swimming champion-ships, and Trinity captured the women’s basketball championship - all in the same weekend. The following fall (in 2003), the Trinity men’s soccer team gave the league title #4, and the DePauw women’s basketball team became the fifth team from the conference to win a national championship when it captured the 2006-07 Division III title. Trinity’s Christyn Schumann won the women’s high jump at three consecutive NCAA Outdoor Track & Field national championships (2004-06), and Liz Bondi of DePauw captured the 16th individual national championship won by a CAC/SCAC student-athlete when she won the 2007 women’s tennis singles title. The 2008-09 season was a banner year as one team and three individual student-athletes won national titles for the SCAC. Todd Wildman of Trinity won the pentathlon at the NCAA Indoor Track & Field national championships and Chrys Jones of Centre College won the triple jump at the Outdoor Track & Field national championships. On the links, the Oglethorpe University men earned the league’s sixth team title with a first-place finish at the NCAA Golf Championships. The Petrels were led by Olafur Loftsson, who earned medalist honors and the league’s 19th individual title. In 2009-10, the SCAC had four different individuals win a total of five national titles. Todd Wildman of Trinity won his second-consecutive

indoor national title in the pentathlon. Centre’s Chrys Jones dou-ble-dipped and claimed national titles in the triple jump at the both the NCAA Indoor and Outdoor national championships. At the 2010 NCAA Swimming & Diving championships, Trinity teammates Lindsay Martin and Hayley Emerick claimed individual titles in the 1-meter and 3-meter boards, respectively. In 2010-11, Chrys Jones became just the second SCAC student-ath-lete to win four career individual national titles as he repeated at the NCAA Indoor national championships in the triple jump. Centre’s Chris Morris earned the league its 26th individual national title when he claimed medalist honors at the 2011 NCAA Golf Championships. The 2011-12 academic year was one of the most successful in the league’s 50-year history. Tiarra Goode of Birmingham-Southern College won the 60-meter hurdles at the NCAA Indoor Track & Field national championships, Jordan DeGayner of Colorado College won the 200 free at the NCAA Swimming & Diving national champion-ships and Ruth Hahn of Trinity University continued the Tigers’ diving dominanace with an individual title on the 3-meter board. Later in the spring, SCAC student-athletes earned two more individual national titles with Anthony Maccaglia of Oglethorpe University earning the league its third medalist in four years at the NCAA Men’s Golf cham-pionship and Birmingham’s Goode picked up her second individual national title with a win in the 100-meter hurdels at the NCAA Outdoor Track & Field championships. In addition, Oglethorpe University earned the conference its seventh team national title with a victory at the 2012 NCAA Division III Men’s Golf Championships. The “new” SCAC returned to national prominence in 2013-14 as Stephen Culberson of Trinity University won the 100 free at the 2014 NCAA Swimming & Diving Championships and, in its first year in the conference, Schreiner University gave the conference its eighth team national championship with a victory at the 2014 NCAA Division III Men’s Golf Championships - the league’s third national title in the sport in six years. A bell, donated by the Norfolk and Western Railway, was adopted as the SCAC’s “President’s Trophy” and serves as the symbol for the conference. The President’s Trophy is displayed for one year on the campus of the school with the combined men’s and women’s athletics program that accumulates the highest points total in the all-sports race established by the conference. The bell is awarded at the conclu-sion of the spring season.

players to watch

Ross, a senior running back, will enter his final season in 2015. As a junior, he led the ‘Roos with 965 rushing yards, averaging 6.2 yards per carry and running in nine touchdowns. His longest rush of the season came against Occidental, when he went 83 yards for a touchdown. This was a breakout season for the running back, totaling almost

triple the amoung of rushing yards he had posted in his first two seasons. Ross also grabbed 62 yard receiving for 1,027 all-purpose yards.

Ward, a senior linebacker, enters his final season with the ‘Roos in 2015. He totaled 88 tackles, the top mark among AC and third-best among the conference, averging 8.8 tackles per game. 39 of his 88 tackles were solo efforts, which is the second-most among all defensive players. Last season he also posted a sack, 8.5 tackles for loss and one interception. He

posted a career-high 15 tackles against Southwestern Assem-blies of God, while he was able to mark double-digit tackles on three other occasions last season.

Vaughn, a senior defensive lineman, played in all 10 games for the ‘Roos last season and will return for his final campaign. He totaled 40 tackles, averaging 4.0 per game. He also notched 6.5 tackles for loss, including 2.5 sacks, one blocked field goal and one fumble recovery. Two of his sacks one the season came in the first SCAC game of the year

against Southwestern. He also marked a season-high eight tackles in the final game of the year against Trinity.

Crawford, a senior tight end, played in all 10 games last season and led the team with 699 receiv-ing yards. He scored four touch-downs in 2014, which was second among all receivers. He grabbed a career-high 153 yards against East Texas Baptist in the second game of the season, including his second-longest reception of the year, 58 yards. Crawford’s longest

reception came against Southwestern in the first meeting of two teams last season. He was able to connect on an 81 yard pass from quarterback Noah Jesko to score the first touch-down of the game.

2015 season preview

The 2015 campaign will see plenty of transition for the Austin College football team, as head coach Loren Dawson and his staff replace 23 seniors, including 18 former starters from last year’s squad. Last season the ‘Roos finished 5-5 with a 1-2 record in Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference play, but find themselves in unfamiliar territory, having to find new starters at several major positions. Fortunately for Dawson, he’s got several key performers coming back this year including first team All-SCAC running back Madison Ross to lead the offense, and a defense that will feature senior All-SCAC performers Brooks Ward and Brett Vaughn leading the charge. Ross rushed for 965 yards and averaged 6.2 yards-per-carry, scoring nine touchdowns to finish among the conference leaders in all three categories. Ward, a middle linebacker, was among the SCAC leaders with 88 tackles, in-cluding 8.5 tackles for loss, and Vaughn, a defensive tackle, had 40 stops includ-ing 6.5 TFL and 2.5 sacks. Joining them on the defense will be Delmas Hoye, the lone returning starter in the secondary. The cornerback finished fourth on the team with 58 tackles and picked off two passes last year. Back on the offensive side of the ball, Ross will get help from leading pass catcher Kyle Crawford. The tight end returns this season after hauling in 42 passes for 699 yards and four touchdowns on his way to earning D3Football.com All-Region honors for the second straight year. However, the big question mark on offense will be at the quarterback spot, as Dawson finds himself forced to start a new signal caller for the first time since the 2011 campaign. Gone is Noah Jesko, who set an Austin College record with 906 career pass attempts and fell just short of breaking the career yardage mark, and Dawson expects it to be an ongoing competition to find a replacement throughout fall camp. Jesko isn’t the only valuable member of the offense the ‘Roos will be forced to replace, as Austin College also must find another runner to comple-ment Ross after losing All-Conference back Bryce Murphy to graduation. Still, there are several skill position playmakers returning this season including Cooper Woodyard, Kevin Ray, and Brandon Rawls, and Dawson expects receiver Shawn Slowinski to make an impact in the passing game this year. The ‘Roos could also see the emergence of receiver Joe Traylor, a 6-foot-4, 205 pound ju-nior who transferred in last year but sat out during the 2014 campaign. Traylor adds tremendous size and athleticism to go along with the quickness of Ray and the consistency and strength of Crawford. “A big focus has been and will continue to be improving situational football, whether it’s down and distance or in the red zone,” said Dawson. “With the defense, we want to cut down on giving up big plays, and on offense the focus has been on third down conversions.”

Leading the way up front is an offensive line that will need to replace several key members from last season’s squad, but returns enough experience to make it a strength of the team. Cole Caldwell and Judd Mahan return to man the left side of the line, while Spencer Moore is poised to recover from a season ending injury a year ago and reclaim his spot as the team’s starting right tackle. Re-placing starting center Cody Kovach won’t be easy, but Branden Hunt received significant playing time last year and should be able to do an admirable job filling the void. On defense, Austin College must find a way to replace departed defensive backs Colter Headrick, Scott Loy, and Shane Hodge, but Dawson believes the pieces are in place to put together a strong group alongside Hoye. Max James could make an impact, along with Stevie Reyna, Shane Brooks, and Major Adams in the secondary. Linebacker is another position that will need a little bit of revamping, but Kendall St. Romain, Charles Eneh, and Darlon Chandler should all get chances to expand on the potential they’ve flashed in backup roles. Dawson also expects defensive lineman Wesley Thompson to take on a bigger role this season. Austin College also faces the difficult challenge of an unbalanced home and away schedule this season, playing in the friendly confines of Apple Stadium just four times in 2015. The ‘Roos will be home the first two Saturdays of the season, but play at home just once in October before returning to Apple for Homecoming on November 14 against Trinity. Along with the challenges of playing so few games at home and replacing 23 graduated seniors, the coaching staff has undergone some changes with a new defensive coordinator in Mike Silva. The ‘Roos will also have a new special teams coordinator and offensive line coach this season. “We’re going to work hard to travel with a championship approach,” said Daw-son when asked about the unusual number of road trips. “We can’t let being on the road impact our ability to play at our best.” The ‘Roos will be reporting to fall camp on August 13, and kick off the 2015 season at home against Hendrix College at 1:00 p.m. on September 5.

Joe Austin enters his third year as the head coach of Southwestern’s football program. He was hired in February 2012, as the University reinstated the program following a 63-year hiatus. In two seasons, Austin has coached 16 All-SCAC selections and 31 academic all-conference honor-ees. Austin’s second campaign with the squad featured the first win for the Pirates since the 1950 season, as Southwestern topped Sul Ross State, 27-20, on Sept. 13, 2014. The Pirates averaged 339.9 yards of total offense, while the defense limited opponents to nearly 80 less yards per contest. He mentored eight all-conference performers, includ-ing four first-teamers. Nik Kelly also was named SCAC Newcomer of the Year after leading the league with six interceptions. Additionally, 18 SU players earned academic all-league honors. In his first season at the helm of the Pirates, Austin saw the Pirates place three first-year players on the All-SCAC First Team, including defensive end Justin Broussard, who topped the league in sacks. In addition to the trio of first-team selections, South-western earned five honorable-mention All-SCAC selections. His offense threw for more than 2,100 yards in their first season and averaged just over 200 yards passing per game. The 2013 season also saw 13 Pi-rates earn a spot on the SCAC Academic Honor Roll. Austin came to Southwestern after transforming Hanover College’s football program in a short time frame. In three years at Hanover, he took a team that was in a decline to a rising star in the Heartland

Collegiate Athletic Conference, finishing in second place the last two seasons. Prior to Hanover, Austin guided the University of Dubuque to back-to-back winning seasons for the first time in 28 seasons. The Spartans finished 7-3 in 2007 and 6-4 in 2006 in a highly competitive Iowa Intercollegiate Athletic Conference. During that time Austin’s offensive unit set 33 school records and in 2007 averaged 35.6 points and 433.4 offen-sive yards per game. On his way to Dubuque, Austin made stops in Augsburg College as the offensive coordinator for one season and was an offensive assistant coach at Concordia University-St. Paul for four campaigns. While at Concordia-St. Paul, the Golden Bears fin-ished ranked in the top 10 nationally at the NCAA Division II level in total offense (6th-2003/7th-2002). Concordia averaged more than 35 points per game and set virtually every school passing, rushing and receiving record during his tenure. A former small-college athlete, Austin played quarterback at St. Ambrose University (Iowa) for two seasons. He suffered a broken vertebrae in his back six games into his sophomore season. The in-jury, which required reconstructive surgery, ended his playing career but jump started his coaching career. Austin earned a bachelor’s degree in communi-cation studies from Concordia-St. Paul in 2001 and a master’s degree in organizational management from the same institution three years later.

players to watch

Wilburn, a junior running back, will return for his junior season in 2015. He started the final seven games, garnering honor-able-mention All-SCAC honors after leading the team with 585 all-purpose yards (83.6 ypg), fourth in the conference. Wil-burn also led the team with 540 rushing yards, averaging 77.1 per game.

Sherman, a junior wide receiver, enters the 2015 season after gar-nering first-team All-SCAC honors in 2014. Sherman led the team with 584 receiving yards, while leading the SCAC with 44 recep-tions. He averaged 64.9 receiving yards per game and 13.3 yards per catch, hauling in a team-best four touchown passes.

Broussard, a junior defensive end, comes into his junior season this year. Broussard started all nine games for the Pirates in 2014 and was named First-Team All-SCAC for the second straight season.

When Joe Austin was hired as the head football coach at Southwestern University in 2012, he explained that it would take three years for the Pirates to close the gap, in terms of physical maturity. “In year one, we were playing all true freshmen. In year two, we closed the gap and we’ll continue to do that again this season.” Austin says the team’s strength gains in the weight room will show on the field this year. “We have guys on this team that can line up against anyone on our schedule and be at the same level.” The third-year head coach for the Pirates also expects constant improvement, which will lead to results on the scoreboard. Last year, Austin guided Southwestern to a 27-20 victory over Sul Ross State, which marked the first win since the program was reinstated by the University. After rotating through a few signal callers last season due to injuries, Austin is ready for Bryan Hicks to return to lead the offense. “I’d like to see him make that next step to an elite-level player. He’s a talented passer.” The 6-foot, 180-pounder threw for 1,056 yards and 11 touchdowns, while completing 58.7 percent of his passes last season. Despite playing only four games, Hicks was named honorable-mention All-Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference (SCAC). Jeremy Snyder started the Pirates’ final game of the 2014 season under center. The Taylor, Texas, native is described as one of the hardest working players on the roster. Last year as a sophomore, Snyder completed 19 passes for 252 yards and a touchdown. Another key position that Austin hopes can stay healthy this season is run-ning back. Justin Pelt was forced to play quarterback last season due to injuries, while Dylan Wilburn has battled injuries in both of his first two campaigns in Georgetown. In addition to throwing for 798 yards and five touchdowns, Pelt rushed for 304 yards and found the end zone once on the ground. Meanwhile, Wilburn was an honorable-mention All-SCAC selection after lead-ing Southwestern with 585 all-purpose yards and six touchdowns. The 5-foot-7, 205-pound running back averaged 77.1 yards per game on the ground, while also catching five passes out of the backfield. The most decorated position on the offensive side of the ball is Southwest-ern’s pass catchers. Wide receivers Matt Gillen and Micah Sherman both earned first-team All-SCAC honors a year ago. Sherman, who hails from Justin, Texas, led the conference with 44 receptions, while posting a team-high 584 receiving yards. Gillen, a 6-foot-2, 195-pounder, has earned first-team all-league honors in back-to-back seasons. Last year, he posted 41 receptions and three touch-downs. Austin also is expecting Kenneth Wynn Jr. and Dante Smith to be factors in the passing game. The Pirates will welcome back 2013 honorable-mention All-SCAC tight end Brandon Fleischmann, who missed all of last season due to an injury. “We’re excited to have him back,” Austin said. “His aggression is different than most guys. He doesn’t stop at the point of attack, ever. He is really athletic for his size.”

Fleischmann posted 22 receptions for 175 yards and a touchdown as a fresh-man. The offensive line is one of the units that Austin and his staff has been waiting to come around. This year, the group up front will benefit the most from an extra year of strength training and experience. Will Devine, a 6-foot-2, 280-pound junior, played every game at tackle a year ago. Andrew Pratt (6-2/310) started all nine contests at guard as a sophomore, while Dereck Harenda (6-0/245) played in seven contests at the other guard position. PJ Quinters (6-0/290) saw action in eight games, including five starts at center as a freshman. On the other side of the ball, the defensive line has been a strength for Austin’s squad in the last two seasons. Austin points to the unit’s quickness for its success. Defensive team leaders Justin Broussard and Nick Mask are two of the key pieces to the scheme. Broussard has collected first-team All-SCAC accolades in back-to-back campaigns. Last year, the 6-foot-1, 235-pound defensive end ranked second in the league with six sacks and 16 tackles for loss. The middle layer of the defense is expected to be another unit that improves in 2015. Zach Cole, a junior from Orange, Texas, saw action in all nine games, including seven as a starter. The 5-foot-11, 220-pounder ranked fourth on the team with 47 tackles, including four for loss. Austin hopes Tyler Frisby (6-0/205) can return to his all-conference form from his freshman campaign. Last year as a sophomore, he finished third on the team with 50 tackles, including 3.5 for loss. Despite being a young crew last season, the secondary proved to be one of the top units in the conference. Sophomore cornerbacks Nik Kelly and DeeJay Johnson lead the way. Kelly was named SCAC Newcomer of the Year in addition to earning first-team all-league honors. The 5-foot-7, 170-pounder led the conference with six inter-ceptions, while also registering 42 tackles. Johnson, a 6-foot-3, 160-pound native of Humble, Texas, was an honor-able-mention All-SCAC pick. He recorded 26 tackles and one interception as a freshman.

Junior Taylor Fann is a versatile athlete who can play both cornerback and safe-ty. Last year, the McKinney, Texas, native garnered honorable-mention All-SCAC laurels after posting 47 tackles and five interceptions. Laith Tucker returns as the Pirates placekicker this season. The junior from Houston was 3-of-9 in field goal attempts a year ago. However, Austin said he had a really good spring season. He also will be pushed by Tyler Adams.

Tucker also averaged 35.2 yards per punt last year.

Texas Lutheran Head Football Coach Danny Padron, a two-time SCAC Coach of the Year, enters his sixth season with the Bulldogs. In 2014, Padron led TLU to a second consec-utive Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference Championship and to the university’s first-ever post-season appearance as a member of the NCAA Division III. TLU went 9-2 overall in 2014 and won the SCAC with a 3-0 mark. The Bulldogs ended 2014 at school-best positions in national polls from the American Football Coaches Association and D3football.com. The Bulldogs finished at No. 16 in the AFCA Division III Coaches’ Poll and at No. 19 in the D3football.com Top 25. TLU is ranked preseason No. 13 by Sporting News and preseason No. 21 by D3football.com. TLU qualified for the 2014 NCAA Championships and fell in the first round of the playoffs. TLU lost 27-20 on the road to then No. 2-ranked Mary Hardin-Baylor. Padron’s star running back, Marquis Barrolle, picked up 2014 All-American honors from D3football.com and USA College Football as a sophomore. Barrolle won the NCAA Division III rushing title with a school-record 1,792 yards in 11 games. Barrolle was named the SCAC Offensive Player of the Year. Barrolle scored 14 touchdowns and set or tied TLU school marks for rushing yards in a game (288), rushing TDs in a game (4, tied with three others), total TDs in a game (4, tied with five others), points scored in a game (24, tied with five others), carries in a game (50), all-purpose

In 2013, the Bulldogs were ranked in the Top 25 by the American Football Coaches Association and received votes in the D3football.com Top 25. At the conclusion of the 2013 season, TLU was third in DIII in total offense (521.2), sixth in scoring offense (46.1) and ninth in passing offense (326.7). Padron also coached place-kicker Allen Cain to a pair of First Team All-America and First Team Academic All-America honors in 2011 and 2012.

Coaching staff

Jerheme Urban will lead the Trinity Tigers football team for a second season, as the 2015 campaign nears. Coach Urban, a 2003 Trinity graduate, was appointed to the top position in November 2013, after serving as an assistant coach for two seasons. He took over the reins from Steve Mohr, who retired after 24 seasons as head coach. Following the 2014 season, four Tigers players were elected as USA College Football All-Amer-icans, and 16 were tabbed for the All-Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference Teams. Nine of Coach Urban’s returning players have been se-lected as 2015 USA College Football Pre-Season All-Americans. Coach Urban brought a wealth of National Football League experience back to Trinity, when he joined the staff in 2012. During his nine-year NFL career, the talented wide receiver played for the Seattle Seahawks, Arizona Cardi-nals (including the 2008 Super Bowl team), and Kansas City Chiefs. Coach Urban completed his NFL career with 91 receptions for 1,266 yards and eight touchdowns. During his days on Trinity’s campus (1999-2003), Coach Urban was a versatile student-ath-lete, excelling in football and track and field. He holds Trinity records in career touchdowns scored, career receiving touchdowns (tied),

single-season receiving touchdowns, and single-season TD receptions. Coach Urban is also ranked second in career receiving yards, career points scored, and career kickoff returns. Coach Urban was a three-time All-SCAC honoree, and was elected to All-America Teams by D3football.com (First Team) and the Football Gazette (Second Team). He was a key player on the 2002 Trinity football team which made it all the way to the Amos Alonzo Stagg Bowl (the NCAA Division III Championship game). On the track, Coach Urban was named the SCAC Male Track and Field Athlete of the Year four straight times, from 2000-2003. It marked the first time in conference history a SCAC athlete achieved that feat. He is also a Trinity record-holder in the 400 meters, 4x400-meter relay, and the triple jump. Coach Urban earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in English and history from Trinity. Shortly after graduation, Coach Urban signed an NFL con-tract. While at Trinity, Coach Urban met his future wife, Emily (Goodwin), a 2003 graduate who was also a standout in track and field. The couple has a daughter, Liesl, and twin sons, Luke and Barrett. A native of Victoria, (TX), Coach Urban attended Stroman High School.

players to watch

Blaschke, a senior quarterback, returns for his fifth year at Trinity, using up his final year of eligibility after a season-ending injury took him out in the first game of the 2013 season. Last season, Blaschke ranked third in the SCAC with 111.6 passing yards per game, throwing six touchdowns on the season. He went 95-231 (.411) and totaled

1,116 yards on the season. Blaschke also rushed for 417 yards, the third best mark on the Tigers’ squad and second best in the SCAC among quarterback

Matthews, a senior defensive lineman, played in all 10 games last season for the Tigers. In his junior campaign, Matthews posted 36 tackles, 11 tackles for loss, including five sacks and one forced fumble. His TFL mark is second among the team, while it ranks seventh among the conference. The five sacks, however, are the SCAC’s

third-best mark.

Sandman, a senior wide receiv-er, will return to the gridiron this season after missing all of 2014 due to an injury. In 2013, Sandman was one of the Tigers top receivers, totaling 630 yards on 35 receptions, aver-aging 18.0 yards per catch, the conference’s best mark. Sand-man’s 630 yard total ranked second among the Tigers and

fifth in the SCAC. He put up a career-high 140 yards on four receptions in a 58-20 win over Southwestern that season, getting into the endzone twice.

Simmons, a senior running back, played in all 10 games for the Tigers last season. In his ju-nior campaign, he totaled 564 rushing yards, the fourth-best mark in the conference and top mark for TU. He also added 68 yards receiving for 632 all-pur-pose yards. Simmons was named a First Team All-SCAC running back last season.

2015 season preview

Head Coach Jerheme Urban will utilize the leadership of 16 returning starters as the Tigers 2015 campaign kicks off September 5 at Howard Payne University in Brownwood, Texas. Trinity’s defensive unit returns 10 starters, the offense brings back six, and special teams will have one returning starting player, who also will start on defense. Coach Urban had a special message for Tiger fans, as Trinity opens its six-game home schedule September 12 against Willamette (OR) University. “I expect the fans to see a more accomplished unit,” Coach Urban said. “We played a lot of young guys last year, and we grew up a lot. The players have grown physically and matured. We will have a more explosive football team this season.” Trinity will host Sul Ross State University September 19, and Har-din-Simmons University October 3. The Trinity University Athletic Hall of Fame Class of 2015 will be introduced during halftime of the Har-din-Simmons matchup. The Tigers host Austin College October 17, and begin their SCAC schedule October 31 with Texas Lutheran University. The final regular-season home game is slated for November 7, in an SCAC game with Southwestern University. The remaining three road games start September 26 as the Tigers travel to Tacoma, Washington, to take on Pacific Lutheran University. Trinity will trek up Interstate Highway 35 to Georgetown, Texas, Octo-ber 24, for the first game with Southwestern. The regular-season finale will be held November 14 in Sherman, Texas, as Trinity wraps up with an SCAC game against Austin College. Coach Urban and his staff have the highest respect for their return-ees, who are all “scrappers.” He also has high hopes for the 31 new-comers, consisting of 17 on offense, 13 on defense, and one on special teams. “We are expecting playmaking abilities from our freshman class,” Coach Urban said. “We believe we have some young talent coming to compete to fill the shoes of the graduates.”Trinity scored 21.7 points per game during the 2014 season, and racked up 3,068 yards of total offense (1,116 yards rushing, 1,452 yards passing). The Tigers put up an average of 306.8 yards per game. “A strong point of our offense last season was running the football,” Coach Urban said. “We are excited about what our passing game can do for us this year, as a complement to our running game. The receiv-ers are back, and our players have one more year experience under

their belts.” Starters lost were tight end Sam Harford, wide receivers Matthew Kennemer and LeAndrew Gordon, and offensive linemen Conner Cox and Jonathan Prescott. Trinity sat atop the conference rankings in scoring defense, yielding 23.5 points per game. The Tigers also led the SCAC in total defense (326.9 yards per game), rushing defense (132.2 yards per game), and pass defense (194.7 yards per game). Senior Mason Blaschke returns for a fifth year, after being injured in the 2013 season-opener. Blaschke completed 95 passes for 1,116 yards and six touchdowns in 2014, as well as rushing for 417 yards and two TDs. The versatile Blaschke also snagged a 46-yard pass for a TD, and punted the ball eight times for 312 yards, a 39.0 yards-per-punt average. “We will take our speed to the next level,” said Coach Urban of his stalwart defensive unit. “We were the No. 1 defense in the conference last year. The challenge is to be a top-five defense in the country. Ath-letically, we have that ability.” Defensive starters lost to graduation were linebacker Connor Yorloff and D-Lineman Bradley Drenon. The Tigers were ranked seventh in the nation last season in kickoff returns. Trinity returned 36 kickoffs for 916 yards, an average of 25.4 yards, and one touchdown. “The kickoff return unit was outstanding for us,” Coach Urban said. “We have some guys coming back who had success running the foot-ball, and we are going to give them the opportunity to pay. There will be wide-open battles in the kicking game.” A key starting player who graduated was two-time SCAC Special Teams Player of the year Matthew Kennemer.
