A new chapter begins for the Lincoln Uni-versity football program heading into the 2015 season. Herbert Pickens was pro-moted to Interim Head Football Coach of the Lions. As the linebackers coach last season his defense led the CIAA in defen-sive touchdowns with six returns for scores. Now as the leader on both sides of the ball, Pickens and his Lions hope to build on a rushing attack after transition-ing from their traditional aerial attack. Several single season rushing records were broken in 2014.

After one season in the Lions backfield running back Stephen Scott (5-8, 205, Jr.) eclipsed the previous rushing record with 956 total yards in 2014 becoming the school’s all-time rushing leader since its return back in 2008. Scott averaged a school record 95.6 rushing yards per game on a season record 216 rushing attempts. In three CIAA games last season Scott passed the century mark in rushing yard-age while also posting three touchdowns.

In a breakout season Scott tallied 996 all-purpose yards behind a solid group of offensive lineman. Lincoln returns offen-sive tackle Brandon Burrell (6-5, 300, Jr.) after three seniors departed after gradua-tion. The Lions offense set a new single season rushing record in 2014 with 352 attempts totaling 1,029 total yards. Quar-terback Edward McKenzie (6-3, 240, Sr.) is back to lead the troops after starting the final five games of 2014 assuring that the Lions top-two rushers from last season

returns.

The 2014 Lions defense set new season records with 198 total interception yards with four interceptions returned for touchdowns and 65 total pass breakups. Led by their All-CIAA standout Brion Rob-inson (5-9. 200, Sr.), the 2014 Lions de-fense led the CIAA in defensive touch-downs with six returns for scores. Defen-sive back Brion Robinson led the Lions defense for the second consecutive sea-son in tackles recording 74 stops, three interceptions, and two forced fumbles. He ranked second overall in the CIAA with 65 solo tackles and seventh in total tackles. The CIAA honored Robinson in back-to-back weeks with the CIAA Defensive Back of the Week Awards for his performance versus Shaw and Fayetteville State.

Cornerback Dezman Ellis (5-9, 200, Jr.) was second on the team in interceptions with a pair including a 65-yard return for a touchdown on national television. Line-backer Wadel Louis was third in tackles with 66 and was a force in the defensive pass rush leading the Lions with four quar-terback hurries.

Kicker/punter Brett Arkelian (5-8, 165, So.) was named to the All-CIAA Rookie Team in 2014. Arkelian was successful on 73% of his P-A-T attempts converting on 16 while finishing the season with 19 total points. He averaged 32.3 yards per punt and had five punts over 50 yards. Return special-ists Larquise Hobbs (5-11, 170, Jr.) and Brandon Rowe (6-2, 200, Sr.) are back

anchoring the special teams. Hobbs aver-aged 16.8 yards on five punt returns while Rowe averaged 16.7 yards on 12 kick re-turns last season.

The 2015 Lions begin the season with back-to-back road games starting with rival Cheyney on Sept. 5. The Lions won the last two meetings against the Wolves including a thrilling 30-18 win on national television in 2014. Lincoln looks to avenge a crushing shutout home loss in their next game to North Carolina Wesleyan on Sept. 12. On Sept. 19 Lincoln will host Alderson Broaddus at the Lincoln University Stadi-um for their Hall of Fame game in the sea-son home opener.

The Lions enter CIAA play on Sept. 26 with a night home game under the lights against Shaw. Their next game is on the road against Fayetteville State on Oct. 3 wrapping up their cross divisional match-ups. CIAA Northern Division play begins on Homecoming 2015 against Virginia Union on Oct. 10. A week later, Lincoln travels to Elizabeth City State for the Vi-kings Homecoming before hosting the defending CIAA Champions Virginia State on Oct. 24. Their next contest is against CIAA rival Bowie State on the road a week later and then recognizing their senior class in their season finale against Chowan on Nov. 7.

Junior Stephen Scott set a new single-season rushing record with 956 rushing yards in the 2014 season. Scott averaged 95.6 rushing yards per game in ten starts for the Lions with three touchdowns

PRONOUNCIATION GUIDE


Herbert Pickens

Interim Head Coach Lane College ‘04

Herb Pickens enters his eighth year at The Lincoln University. On March 18, 2015, Lincoln's Director of

Athletics named Pickens the Lions interim head football coach.

Pickens has been a part of the Lincoln football program since their return to the gridiron in 2008 after

a 47 year absence. He was the defensive coordinator from 2008-2013 and served as the linebackers coach on the 2014 team that

led the CIAA in defensive touchdowns with six total. Since his arrival at Lincoln Coach Pickens has served as the head recruiting

coordinator for the football program that brought in several top recruits. Under his tutelage, Pickens coached five defensive All-

CIAA First Team members: Tim Green, Brandon McElwee, Daron Jones, Brucelee Sterile, and Brion Robinson.

One of the program’s first recruits Brucelee Sterile, was a standout on defense becoming the first ever All-CIAA Football Team

member at The Lincoln University. Sterile finished 2010 ranked No. 30 in tackles by averaging 9.0 per game while leading the coun-

try's 15th-ranked defense that surrendered just 270.5 yards per game.

In 2011, the Lions defense ranked 12th in the nation, led the nation in both sacks and tackles for a loss. Linebacker Brandon McEl-

wee and defensive end Tim Green were both named NCAA Division II statistical champions. McElwee was named the 2011 NCAA

Division II statistical champion in solo tackles. He paced the Lions defense with 114 total tackles, including 79 solos. Green, who

earned tons of postseason honors, including American Football Coaches Association (AFCA) All-American and the Associated Press

Little All-American, was the 2011 NCAA Division II statistical champion in sacks. He led the CIAA and NCAA Division II with 17 sacks

for a loss of 119 yards. Green is Lincoln's first-ever Division II All-American.

Prior to Lincoln, Pickens was the defensive line and inside linebackers coach at Lane College and the assistant linebackers coach

and defensive coordinator at the University of Saint Mary in Leavenworth, Kansas.

Among some of Pickens' accomplishments at Saint Mary's was finishing second in defense in the conference, finishing ninth nation-

ally against the run and being ranked in the top 20 nationally in every defensive category in 2006. The following year, Pickens' de-

fense was first against the pass and 10th against the run.

At Saint Mary's, Pickens was the strength and conditioning coordinator and he was responsible for scouting report preparation.

During his time at Lane College, Pickens broke down game film, assisted with the preparation of the game plan and developed the

defensive scouting reports.

Before graduating from Lane College in 2004 with a Bachelor of Science degree in biology, Pickens played football at Grambling

State University under Doug Williams, the quarterback of the super bowl champions Washington Redskins and the MVP of Super

Bowl XXII.

While at Grambling, Pickens was a two-time SWAC (Southwestern Athletic Conference) newcomer of the week and he was a sec-

ond team honorable mention selection. The honors continued to arrive for Pickens at Lane College where he was a second-team all

-conference selection in 2002.


Eric Schumann

Defensive Coordinator/Defensive Backs University of Alabama ‘77

Eric Schumann enters his second season as the Defensive Coordinator on The Lincoln University foot-

ball coaching staff. In addition to his role as the Defensive Coordinator, Schumann will also coach the

defensive backs.

Schumann brings a significant amount of experience to the Lions. Prior to Lincoln, Schumann coached High School Football in Ala-

bama as the defensive coordinator. In 2007 he served as UAB's defensive coordinator until 2010. He was also the defensive coordi-

nator at Tulane for five seasons while also spending five seasons as the defensive coordinator at SMU coaching the defensive

backs.

During his time at UAB, Schumann's Blazer defensive unit produced three first-team All-Conference USA performers in two seasons

in safety Will Dunbar (2007), CB Kevin Sanders (2008) and Joe Henderson (2008).

While coaching at SMU, the Mustangs led the Western Athletic Conference in defense in 2001 and ranked No. 22 nationally. SMU

was 30th in the NCAA statistics in rushing defense, yielding just 122 yards per game, and ranked 35th in pass efficiency defense.

In 2000, his defense held opponents to less than 100 yards rushing six times, while his 1998 defense achieved a final ranking of No.

14 overall and was 12th in pass efficiency. They held opponents to less than 200 yards of total offense in four games and caused 28

turnovers. The '98 team also allowed the fewest points for the Mustangs in 13 years.

Schumann served as defensive coordinator throughout his tenure at SMU but he was promoted to assistant head coach following

the 1997 season when the Mustangs achieved their first winning record in 11 years and had a defense ranked 29th nationally.

In 2001, SMU's WAC-leading defense allowed 45 fewer yards than the second-ranked league school. Prior to going to SMU, Schu-

mann was the defensive coordinator at East Tennessee State for five seasons.

At ETSU, Schumann also guided some impressive defensive units. The 1996 Bucs' team led the Southern Conference in rushing de-

fense and the 1993 team was third nationally among Division I-AA schools in pass efficiency defense. One of the players Schumann

coached at ETSU was Donnie Abraham who went on to become an All-Pro defensive back with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Schumann's other coaching stops included five seasons, in two separate stints at Valdosta State and one season each at Livingston,

New Mexico and Troy State. Schumann is a two-time Broyles Award nominee (National Assistant Coach of the Year). At Valdosta

State, Schumann coached Jessie Tuggle, who later became a five-time Pro Bowl linebacker with the Atlanta Falcons.

Schumann was a defensive back in his college playing days at Alabama (1973-77) and was a member of the Crimson Tide team that

won a UPI national championship in 1973, as well as four Southeastern Conference championships (1973-77).

A native of Blue Island, Ill. Schumann earned both his bachelor's and master's degrees from Alabama.

GAME #1 Lincoln 30 vs. Cheyney 18

September 4 at LU Stadium Lincoln Univ. Pa.

The Lions (1-0) opened the 2014 season with a 30-18 victory over rival Cheyney University (0-1) at home in a televised game on Thursday, September 4th. Senior wide receiver Akeem Jordan set a career-high with 156 receiving yards and had three touchdown receptions leading Lincoln to a glorious win. Lincoln collected 357 total offensive yards after rushing for a solid 135 yards and 222 passing yards. Defensively, the Lions forced two interceptions in the final five minutes of the game to seal their second consecutive victory over Cheyney, improving to 12-2-1 in the series. The Wolves took a late 18-17 lead at the 8:22 mark in the fourth quarter after their second rushing touchdown of the night. With their backs against the wall, the Lions roared back with timely defensive plays. Senior defensive back Jacob Lockley intercepted the Cheyney quarterback at mid-field with 4:53 left in regulation giving his offense another opportunity to pull ahead. Lincoln used a pair of rushes to lure the Cheyney defense for a third passing touchdown from 25-yards out by quarterback Doug Cook and Akeem Jordan. With a 23-18 advantage and 1:40 left to play, the Lincoln defense once again rose to the occasion forcing a second-straight Cheyney turnover. In five plays, the Wolves offense gained 38 yards driving to the Lions 32-yard line in a final attempt for a score. The Lions defense applied pressure and sophomore Dezman Ellis picked off Cheyney for a 65-yard touchdown returned off an inter-ception. That was Ellis' first career interception and touchdown as a Lion. With 19-seconds remaining, Lincoln extended their lead to 30-18 downing Cheyney. Running back Stephen Scott rushed for 99 total yards and had two receptions for 15 yards. Scott averaged 5.5 yards per carry and has the second most net yards rushing (99) in a game in Lincoln football history (114 –D'Ante Smith; at Living-stone; 9/26/2009) . The duo of Doug Cook and Akeem Jordan hooked up for three touchdowns matching their 2013 performance against the Wolves. Doug Cook (completed 14-of-22 pass attempts for 222 total yards. This was Cook's fifth time throwing for three touchdowns in a game as a Lion.
