2017 Huskies Football MEDIA GUIDE


DANNY HALE FIELD AT REDMAN STADIUM

Robert B. Redman Stadium is situated on the upper campus of Bloomsburg University as part of the university's 103-acre athletic complex. Originally built in February 1974, the new facility took the place of Athletic Park in downtown Bloomsburg as Home of the Huskies and today stands as one of the finest facilities in the region. Bloomsburg University dedicated the field at Redman Stadium in honor of former head coach Danny Hale on April 28, 2012. Hale began coaching at Bloomsburg in 1993 and holds the school record for most coaching victories, retiring after the 2012 season. In the spring of 2008, the facility was completely renovated as part of a $3.45 million dollar project which included a press box with elevator, new restrooms, artificial turf field, track and field facilities, new railings and ADA compliance, new parking lot, new visitor bleachers and lights. The stadium, which overlooks the scenic Susquehanna Valley, has seating for 5,000 spectators, although attendance at several events has exceeded that total. The largest crowd to see a football game in the facility totalled 7,483 at the 1985 Homecoming contest against Millersville. When planning began for the new stadium in 1963, the proposed site was an area on the lower campus across from where the Rec Center is now; however, a consultant's report recommended the upper campus development. The project finally got underway in 1972 at a total cost of

$725,000. On Saturday, September 21, 1974, the first game was played in the stadium, and dedication ceremonies were held naming the facility in honor of Redman. In the first game at the newly renovated facility in 2008 the Huskies beat California (PA), 24-17. Coach Redman, a native of Sayre, Pa., and a graduate of its public schools, graduated with honors in economics at Swarthmore College where he also participated in four years of varsity football activities, served as captain during his senior year and was also a varsity performer with the baseball team. He earned his Master of Arts degree in economics at Pennsylvania State University during his tenure at Bloomsburg State College. Redman had coached at Sayre High School and North High School in Binghamton, N.Y, prior to serving as an officer in the United States Navy during World War II. He left the service with the rank of lieutenant commander. He returned to his coaching duties at North High School and remained there until his appointment at Bloomsburg in 1947. In addition to serving as head coach of two varsity teams at Bloomsburg, Redman also served as dean of men and taught courses in economics. During his five years at Bloomsburg, his teams won 38 games and lost only four. His record included three Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference championships and two undefeated teams. Redman was inducted into the Bloomsburg Athletic Hall of Fame in 1982.

HEAD COACH

PAUL DARRAGH 5th Season (21st Season at BU) 34-13 Overall Record; 24-6 PSAC Record Temple ‘85 Paul Darragh was named head coach of Bloomsburg University on December 6, 2013 after being appointed interim head coach in February, 2013. Overall, he will be starting his 21st season with the Huskies in 2017 and fifth as head coach. Darragh enters the 2017 campaign with a 34-13 overall record (.723). The 34 victories over his first four seasons marks the most wins in the first four years of a coaching career at Bloomsburg while his .723 winning percentage is the second-best mark during the first four years of a coaching tenure (Robert Redman went 30-4 (.882) from 1947 to 1950). With Darragh on the Huskies’ staff, dating back to his first season as defensive coordinator in 1997, Bloomsburg has compiled an overall record of 175-57 (.754). Last season, the Huskies saw their streak of 17 consecutive seasons of at least seven victories come to an end but, Bloomsburg did extend its consecutive winning season streak to 18 straight as the team went 6-5 overall and finished in a tie for third place in the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) Eastern Division with a 4-3 mark. The Huskies have not had a losing record since going 5-6 during the 1998 season - Darragh’s second year on the staff. Six players earned All-PSAC East First or Second Team nods with redshirt sophomore defensive lineman, Chris Gary, also earning Second Team All-American accolades from Don Hansen. Gary finished the season with a PSAC-leading 12.5 sacks - one shy of tying the school record of 13.5 set by Larry Webster in 2012. Bloomsburg’s defense, in particular, was good last season as it finished second in the conference in passing yards allowed per game (193.2) and was fifth in points allowed per contest (23.7). The 2015 edition saw the Huskies finish fourth in the PSAC in rushing offense (228.7), aided by Lawrence Elliott, Jr., who finished as the league’s leading rusher in yards per game (131.5). Bloomsburg also finished second in the conference in scoring defense (19.7) and second in total defense (320.8). At year’s end, Bloomsburg had nine players named to the All-PSAC East First or Second Teams with Elliott, Jr. also capturing All-Region Second Team honors from the Division II Conference Commissioners’ Association (D2CCA). The first two seasons of the Darragh Era will go down as two of the strongest in Huskies history. Darragh posted a 21-4 overall record, back-to-back PSAC East titles, two NCAA Playoff berths, and a PSAC Championship (2013) while being named PSAC East Coach of the Year in both 2013 and 2014. He also became the fastest Huskies’ head coach to reach 20 victories. Following the 2014 season, he was honored as the American Football Coaches Association (AFCA) Super Region One Coach of the Year. The 2014 squad won its first ten games on the way to an 11-2 record, clinching the PSAC East crown and the second seed in the Super Region One playoff bracket. Bloomsburg reached the regional championship game, after a second round playoff win over Virginia State, to remain as one of the final eight teams in the nation left playing. Darragh guided a team that excelled on both sides of the ball - the offense recorded over 220 yards of rushing and nearly 34 points per game. Defensively, Bloomsburg ranked first in the PSAC and sixth in the nation in scoring defense while surrendering just 15.4 points per game. The Huskies also led Division II in turnovers generated, recording a school record 43, and led the country in turnover margin at +30. A PSAC-best 14 players were named All-Conference following the year including senior middle linebacker Justin Shirk who earned PSAC East and Daktronics Super Region One Defensive Player of the Year honors. During the 2013 season, Darragh led the Huskies to a 10-2 record, a PSAC championship, and a berth in the NCAA Playoffs as part of the best season for any firstyear head coach in Bloomsburg history. He was named the PSAC Eastern Division Coach of the Year. The Huskies took home numerous awards following the season including having four All-Americans and the 2013 Harlon Hill Award winner in running back Franklyn Quiteh. Darragh also coached All-American defensive end Larry Webster, who was selected in the fourth round of the NFL Draft by the Detroit Lions, and offensive lineman Matt Feiler who was signed to the practice squad of the Houston Texans. Feiler is now a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers organization. Prior to taking over the reins as the head coach, Darragh served as the Huskies’ defensive coordinator for 16 years under legendary head coach, Danny Hale. Under Darragh’s leadership, the Huskies’ defense ranked in the top-half of the PSAC in to-

HEAD COACH tal defense in seven of his last 11 seasons in the role, including back-to-back second-place finishes in 2000 and 2001 and a second-place ranking in 2009. The Huskies also ranked among the best in the PSAC in run defense, finishing first or second five times. The 2009 Huskies led the PSAC, and finished third nationally, in scoring defense (13.36/game). Bloomsburg also led the conference in sacks, ranking 14th nationally (3.09 per game). In 2010, the Huskies were eighth in Division II in rushing defense (85.38 yards per game). Under Darragh’s leadership as the defensive coordinator, the Bloomsburg defense finished in the top-15 in NCAA Division II six times from 2000 to 2012. While serving as the defensive coordinator, Darragh also coached 57 First Team All-PSAC performers, ten All-Americans, and three PSAC East Defensive Players of the Year in Justin Shirk (2014), Anthony Smith (2009) and Mike Varanavage (2010). Prior to Bloomsburg, Darragh worked for two years at Indiana (PA) as the linebackers coach. He started his coaching career as a graduate assistant at Temple from 1987-89. From there, Darragh coached the linebackers at Northeastern and Gannon before being promoted to defensive coordinator at Gannon. He moved from Gannon to the defensive coordinator post at William Paterson College before joining the Indiana (PA) staff. A three-year starter and captain for Temple, he graduated in 1985 after earning All-East honors as an inside linebacker. Darragh and his wife, Yelena, live in Bloomsburg and are the parents of three children Sasha, 29, Lemuel, 27, and Gabriel, 16.

Last season, the Huskies’ defense, despite being ravaged by injuries, managed to finish in the top five in the PSAC in several categories including second in passing defense (193.2) and fifth in scoring defense (23.7). Four of Bloomsburg’s six All-PSAC selections - Andrew Harris, Chris Gary, Joe Wetty, and Jerrin Toomey - came from the defensive side of the ball. Gary went on to earn Second Team All-American honors from Don Hansen. 2015 proved to be another strong season for the Huskies’ defense as Bloomsburg ranked second in the PSAC in scoring defense (19.7) and second in the league in total defense (320.8).

ASSISTANT COACHES

WILL BLANDEN Defensive Line / Special Teams Coordinator 5th Season Howard ‘08 Will Blanden begins his fifth season as an assistant coach with the Huskies in 2017. It will be his second season in charge of the defensive line and he will also serve as the special teams coordinator. Last season, the Huskies registered 25 quarterback sacks with 19.5 of those coming from the defensive line. Redshirt sophomore Chris Gary enjoyed a breakout season under the tutelage of Blanden as he recorded a PSAC-leading 12.5 sacks in 2016 - one shy of the school-record of 13.5 set by Larry Webster in 2012. Gary earned Second Team All-American honors from Don Hansen and is a preseason Second Team All-American by Lindy’s Sports entering the 2017 campaign. Prior to taking over the defensive line, Blanden oversaw the linebacking corps and, in 2014, Blanden coached the PSAC East Defensive Athlete of the Year, Justin Shirk, at middle linebacker. Shirk went on to win All-American accolades from four different organizations following the season. Before coming to Bloomsburg, Blanden served as the defensive backs and strength and conditioning coach at Division III Nichols College for two seasons. In his first year with the Bison, he saw free safety Mike Rubalcaba named to 21st Annual Steve ‘Merc’ Morris All-Star Team and selected to participate in the 16th Annual Metrodome All-American Bowl. In his second year, he helped orchestrate a defense that ranked fifth in the league in pass defense, allowing just 173 yards per game. His players also excelled in the classroom as

four defensive backs were named to the NEFC Academic All-Conference during his tenure. Blanden began his coaching career as defensive backs coach at Western Connecticut State in 2009 and spent two seasons with the Colonials. In addition to his responsibilities with the defensive backs, he was in charge of formulating a daily practice script, devising the passing game, screens, draws, and gadgets section of the scouting report, and was the coordinator of the punt return team. Blanden earned his bachelor of business administration in accounting in 2008 from Howard University before completing his masters of business administration in sports management at Nichols in May 2012. He started three games at quarterback for the Bison in 2006 and also spent time at wide receiver and defensive back during his career. Blanden also played basketball at Howard during the 2004-05 season. In 2011, he played professionally for the Trenton Steel of the Southern Indoor Football League. A member of the American Football Coaches Association (AFCA), Blanden was a 2011 NCAA Future Coaches Academy participant, a three-year volunteer (2010-12) at Lauren’s First and Goal Football Camp at Lafayette College, and a two-year volunteer (2011-12) at former New York Jets and Cleveland Browns head coach Eric Mangini’s Youth Football Camp in Hartford, Connecticut.

KEENAN CHESNICK Offensive Line / Video Coordinator / Pro Liaison 5th Season Bloomsburg ‘13 Keenan Chesnick begins his fifth season on the Huskies’ coaching staff in 2017. Chesnick will handle the Huskies’ offensive line for the first time this season as he replaces legendary line coach Brian McBryan, who, after 23 seasons on the staff, retired in December of 2016. Chesnick will also handle video coordination and will serve as the pro liaison. Chesnick worked with the running backs last season after working primarily with the tight ends in each of his first three seasons. Chesnick also stepped in to coach the offensive line for several weeks last season while McBryan was on medical leave after undergoing prostate cancer surgery. Under Chesnick’s guidance last season, the Huskies’ running attack had another strong season, led by senior Lawrence Elliott, Jr. The tailback rushed for 1,014 yards and a conference-leading 20 touchdowns. It marked the seventh straight season, and 13th time in the last 14 years, that the team has had a 1,000-yard rusher.

All told, the Huskies averaged 170.5 yards per game on the ground and totaled 26 rushing touchdowns. Now, Chesnick will take over a unit that has traditionally played a vital role in the program’s strong ground game. Chesnick graduated from Bloomsburg in 2013 with a degree in psychology. A former member of the Huskies, Chesnick’s playing career as a linebacker was cut short after a series of knee injuries. He previously spent three years as a student assistant for the defense. Before coming to Bloomsburg, Chesnick worked as a member of the equipment staff for both the New York Jets and the Cleveland Browns.

ASSISTANT COACHES ED RUSH Specialists 12th Season West Chester ‘64 Ed Rush returned to the Huskies’ coaching staff in 2016 and will begin his 12th season on the sidelines in 2017. He will, again, coach the specialists. Rush previously worked 38 seasons for the National Basketball Association. He served as an official from 1966 to 1998, officiating more than 2,000 games including All-Star games. In 1998, he joined the NBA Basketball Operations department as the NBA/WNBA Director of Officiating. In his first stint with the Huskies, Rush’s tutelage helped Dan Fisher set the single-season school record with 20 field goals, including a school-record five in one game, during the 2010 campaign. Fisher set the all-time PSAC career record for field goals made with 57, also ranking among the all-time leaders in Division II. Fisher also finished his career as the PSAC’s all-time leader in kicking points and point-after attempts. Rush also coached All-American running back, Jamar Brittingham, the school’s record-holder for rushing yards in a season. He held the Bloomsburg and the PSAC career record for rushing yards until Franklyn Quiteh shattered the record books after his graduation in 2013.

Prior to his work with the NBA, Rush worked as a teacher and football coach for Marple-Newton High School in suburban Philadelphia. He is a graduate of West Chester University where he played varsity football. He is also a nationally-recognized motivational speaker specializing in leadership.

2017 PREVIEW

2017 Huskies Football MEDIA GUIDE

17


SEASON PREVIEW Despite an 18th consecutive winning season in 2016, the year seemed like a bit of a disappointment for the team and the coaching staff. “One of the things we have realized a long time here is that there is a fine line between winning and losing,” said head coach Paul Darragh, who enters his fifth season as the head coach and sports an overall record of 34-13. “Sure, we had a winning season last year, but it wasn’t quite what our expectations were.” A new-found appreciation for the little things and a new team slogan in 2017 have the arrow pointing back in the right direction for the Huskies. “Our emphasis since the IUP game last year was to make sure we take care of the little things because that’s what really ends up getting a team over the hump in those close games. We came out of the season and into the spring with a renewed sense of taking care of the little things and having a great work ethic. Hopefully, it will carry over into the fall and help us win those games that we have been able to win in the past.” SHARPEN THE AXE Redshirt seniors Aaron Allison, Scott Beltz, and Eric Schwartz will serve as the captains this season and one of their first tasks in the new leadership role was to come up with a slogan for the 2017 season. The slogan - Sharpen The Axe. “I asked them why and they explained a story about Abraham Lincoln,” said Darragh. “Apparently, Lincoln once said that ‘if I was given the task of chopping down a tree and given six hours to do it, I would spend the first four hours sharpening the axe.’ The preparation is going to help execute the job. Our guys recognize that the preparation is the important part of the task at hand so we are going to continue to sharpen the axe.” QUARTERBACKS Although redshirt senior Chris Palubinsky (seven starts) and redshirt junior Duffy Gilhool (four starts) both saw plenty of action last season, the Huskies enter training camp with an open competition under center. Both showed flashes of brilliance last season but both also showed some inexperience as the duo combined to throw only seven touchdown passes (against 11 interceptions) – second-fewest in the PSAC – in 2016. But the duo, along with redshirt freshman Erik Benjamin, provide Darragh with plenty of positives and intrigue for the 2017 season. “Chris brings experience (four years in the system) to the table and has a very strong arm and a really good handle on the offense,” said Darragh. “Duffy, on the other hand, can make plays with his legs as well – he’s a little more dynamic in that regard. Erik can do some of both – he has a strong arm and can run – and is getting a better handle on the system.” Palubinsky completed 85-of-169 passes for 1,317 yards and four touchdowns (five interceptions) in eight games while Gilhool was 55of-106 for 672 yards and three touchdowns (six interceptions) in six contests. Gilhool did finish third on the team in rushing with 123 yards and another score. “Our hope is that the competition will help all three of them raise their level of play,” added Darragh. “We’ll make the decision after our big scrimmage in camp and hopefully, by then, someone has clearly separated himself from the others.” RUNNING BACKS The Huskies have traditionally had a potent

18

2017 Huskies Football MEDIA GUIDE

rushing attack as the team has had a 1,000-yard rusher in seven consecutive seasons and in 13 of the last 14 years. Last season, Lawrence Elliott, Jr. kept the streak intact as he posted a strong final game at IUP to finish with 1,014 yards on the ground. However, Elliott, Jr., who finished his career tenth on the school’s all-time list with 2,613 rushing yards, has departed and the team must now turn to a quartet of backs who have combined for 393 yards in their Bloomsburg careers. The leader of the pack may be redshirt sophomore Alex Gooden who rushed for 278 yards (6.9 yards per carry) as a freshman but missed all of last season due to an injury. But, like at the quarterback position, expect an open competition for the starting nod during training camp. “Alex had a strong spring and really showed flashes of returning to form when he was a freshman,” Darragh said. “Coming out of spring, he certainly was as consistent as anyone and he will be in the mix.” Expected to join Gooden in the battle for the starting role will be junior transfer Hakeem Sillman and redshirt sophomores Qmac Quiteh and Tre Green. Sillman joined the team in the spring and led the Huskies on the ground in the spring game. “Hakeem is dynamic,” added Darragh. “He has the ability to stick his foot in the ground and be very explosive.” Quiteh, the younger brother of Bloomsburg’s all-time leading rusher and 2013 Harlon Hill Award winner, Franklyn Quiteh, rushed for 99 yards and two scores on just 14 carries last season. “Qmac is becoming a bit like his brother,” said Darragh. “He runs a lot stronger than what people think. He breaks the first tackle and has great vision in the tackle box. He may not have the breakaway speed, but he has tremendous vision inside the tackles that really helps him get yards when it looks like nothing is there.” Green, who had just four carries last season, has shown an ability to both run and catch out of the backfield. “Tre has great vision and continues to get better and better the more he plays,” said Darragh. “The idea, for us, is to have a starter but we’ve always had another guy – last year it was Joe Parsnik – who would come in and play almost as much,” said Darragh. “You have to have depth and durability and with our four guys, we feel we have a great stable of running backs.” FULLBACKS Redshirt senior Eric McCracken has developed into one of the best fullbacks in the conference and, again, will be the starter entering the opener against Stonehill. “To have a guy like Eric, who has really established himself as one of the best fullbacks in the country – even though there aren’t many fullbacks left in the game – makes us feel good about this position. He’s one of the best we’ve had in a long time but we have to keep him healthy.” McCracken was named a Don Hansen All-Super Region One Second Team selection last season. He posted his best season, statistically, as he rushed for 46 yards and added another 70 yards - on four catches - out of the backfield. Depth will be provided by redshirt sophomore Alexander Arcangeli, who showed that he can not only block but can carry the ball with effectiveness. “Alex is a great changeup,” added Darragh. “He is more athletic as he can also play in one-back situations for us.”


SEASON PREVIEW Arcangeli carried the ball only 14 times last season but finished with 103 yards (7.4 yards per carry) and a touchdown. He also caught a pass for 20 yards. Jack Gaugler, who redshirted last season, and Ben Cerney, who joined the team in the spring, are expected to provide even more depth. “We definitely created depth in the spring with Jack and Ben,” said Darragh. “It’s important because it’s such a physical position.” OFFENSIVE LINE Redshirt senior Shawn Secola and redshirt junior Travis Krall are the only true returning veterans as the duo combined for 21 starts on the offensive line last season. However, the line features a number of other players who have seen action in the past which leads Darragh to believe this will be a solid group. “We may not have the numbers we have had in the past,” explained Darragh. “We definitely need to stay healthy, but, we like who we have. In years past, if we had eight linemen that can play and can play multiple positions, that has been a good number for us. In our group this year, we’ll find those guys that can play on Saturdays.” In addition to Secola and Krall, who are both expected to earn starting roles, Darragh liked what he saw from redshirt sophomore Seth Jonassen during the spring. “Seth had a great spring and we feel he has solidified himself as the anchor at the center position.”

omores Jay Popson and Doug Strang as well as sophomore Kieron Smethers to provide some assistance at the position. Popson and Smethers combined for three catches last season while Strang missed all of 2016 but caught nine passes for 157 yards as a rookie in 2015. “Jay had a great spring and he solidified the fact that he needs to be on the field on Saturdays,” Darragh said. “Kieron has some good size to him and can pose a matchup problem and Doug is back in the mix after missing last season. He played as a true freshman and we’ll be looking to him for some more depth.” “We don’t have a lot of depth, but if those guys stay healthy, it’s a good receiving corps and a group that can certainly help us win.” TIGHT ENDS All signs point to redshirt senior Aaron Allison having a big year in 2017 and the tight end position starts, and ends, with him. “We have to hang our hat on Aaron,” explained Darragh. “We don’t have a lot of depth. We have some young guys that can come in and spell him, but Aaron is going to have to carry a lot of the load. He can be a good one and, if we utilize him like we should, he can be an All-Conference player for us.” Allison caught 13 passes for 191 yards last season and has hauled in 37 passes and five touchdowns in his collegiate career.

Redshirt juniors Chris Dunford and Josh Tripp, along with redshirt freshman Shawn Page II, are expected to battle for a starting role at a guard position. Redshirt junior Blake Remensnyder and redshirt senior Nick Pellechia, who is moving back to the offense after a year on the defensive line, are also in the mix for starting roles or, at least, significant playing time.

“He can be as good a tight end as we have had in a while. We need to utilize his ability to catch the football more this season.”

“Other than Travis (Krall) and Shawn (Secola), our other guys have played some, but not significantly. Now is the time for them to step up. We’ll have some battling going on during camp but we need that - and we’ll need the depth anyway. Hopefully, things will be cleared up once we ge ready to play Stonehill.”

DEFENSIVE LINE “If we stay healthy - and that didn’t happen last season at this position - this is certainly a position of strength for us,” said Darragh of his 2017 defensive line unit. “It’s a great group of guys who have played significantly in the past and who have made a number of plays for us.”

WIDE RECEIVERS The roster loses a solid go-to receiver in Chad Hoffman, but he will be staying with the program and will serve as a receivers coach in the fall. But, excitement surrounds the receiving corps as the Huskies developed a strong dynamic duo last season in redshirt sophomore Michael Allen and sophomore Ethan Price who will both be looked upon for bigger things in 2017. “Michael and Ethan are definitely talented,” said Darragh. “We are going to have to find ways to get them the football other than just pushing the ball vertically down the field. Ethan is bigger and more physical and Michael is more of the playmaker, but they both have big-play capability. We need to exploit that even more so this season.” Allen was an All-PSAC East Second Team selection last season after hauling in 29 catches for 464 yards and a score. He also led the Huskies with 262 kickoff return yards. Meanwhile, Price caught 17 passes for 309 yards and two touchdowns. He led the team in yards per catch (18.2) as a true freshman last season. Darragh will also be looking to redshirt soph-

Expected to be in the mix to back up Allison are redshirt junior Carson Venne and redshirt freshman Kevin Vitti.

The Huskies’ defense recorded 25 sacks last season and exactly half of those - a PSAC-leading 12.5 - came from redshirt junior Chris Gary who will be looked upon for even bigger things in 2017. Gary was a Don Hansen Second Team All-American last season and was named a preseason Second Team All-American from Lindy’s Sports heading into this year. “Chris has an explosive nature that makes him very tough to block,” said Darragh. “When we moved him from linebacker to defensive end, we saw his quickness, his leverage, his explosiveness, and his strength. It was just a matter of lining up right and playing the position. We’re expecting another big year from him.” Gary finished one sack away from tying the school record of 13.5 set by Larry Webster in 2012 despite not starting a single game last season. At the other end position, redshirt seniors Scott Beltz and Marquez Norford are expected to provide the stability there. “They are two very established players who can even move inside on passing situations.”

SEASON PREVIEW The biggest addition for the Huskies may be at the tackle positions where redshirt senior Ezra Ranco and redshirt junior Jake Klinger return from season-ending injuries a year ago. The duo combined to play in only five games last season. Ranco was an All-PSAC Second Team honoree in 2015. “They’ve certainly experienced varying degrees of health issues,” said Darragh on the return of Ranco and Klinger. “But, they have a lot of talent and strength and have proven they can play at a high level.”

Schwartz and Baldwin posted career-highs in tackles last season with 32 and 28 respectively. Toure, in his first season with the Huskies, collected 31 tackles a season ago. Redshirt junior Josh Salak and redshirt sophomore Victor Delgado will be in the rotation and should both see significant playing time in 2017.

Expected to provide even more stability on the defensive line are redshirt senior Tony Le and redshirt freshman Jelil Norman.

SPECIAL TEAMS Arguably, one of the biggest losses for the Huskies entering 2017 will be punter Will Wagner who graduated in May. Wagner was a consistent performer at the position for four years and was an All-PSAC First Team selection in 2015.

LINEBACKERS As strong as the defensive line unit could be, the linebacking corps appears to be the biggest question mark on the defensive side of the ball in 2017. The Huskies lose All-PSAC First Team honoree Andrew Harris from last season and will not have the services of Frank Aigeldinger who has decided not to return due to personal reasons.

Expected to replace Wagner is sophomore Kieron Smethers. “Kieron is coming out of the spring as the starter,” said Darragh. “He has a very strong leg and he’s worked on getting the procedure down (snap, hold, and kick). It’s good to have David (Carney) around - he’s as good a long and short snapper as there is in the league. He sat out the spring but he’s healthy again and ready to go.”

“This is THE position we have to stay healthy,” said Darragh. “We don’t have a lot of depth and we don’t have a lot of experience. One of the things we may do because of our personnel - we do it a lot anyway - is go to a defensive grouping with only two linebackers on the field more often. Usually we go into a season with four or five linebackers that we feel good about playing on Saturday. I think we have to find three more to get to that number in the 23 practices before Stonehill.” Expected to lead the group are redshirt junior Nate Monroe and redshirt sophomore Alex Annan. “Nate and Alex have played in the past and have played well. We are comfortable with those two guys.” The duo combined for 74 tackles and 5.5 tackles for a loss last season. Expected to be in the mix for significant playing time are redshirt junior Wesley Splain and redshirt freshmen Shane Mulhern and Nathaniel Webb. Only Splain (one game) has appeared in a game at the collegiate level. DEFENSIVE BACKS The secondary turned into a position of strength in 2016 and more will be expected this season. “We have a group of guys who have proven they can make plays,” explained Darragh. At cornerback, the Huskies have a duo - redshirt juniors Dexter Jordan and Marquis Seamon - who turned into shutdown corners in 2016. Jordan led the team, and finished tied for third in the PSAC, with five interceptions while Seamon led the squad with seven pass breakups to go along with two picks. Sophomore Trevon Brown also saw significant action as a rookie a year ago. “These three guys are as good as we have had in a while,” boasted Darragh. “We feel very good about the cornerback position.” Expected to help provide depth is Dexter Jordan’s younger brother, Koran Jordan, who redshirted last season. At safety, the Huskies return redshirt seniors Darnell Baldwin and Eric Schwartz along with senior Osman Toure. “These guys have played a lot and have a great handle of the defense. They get us lined up so it’s important to have three veterans back there.”

2017 Huskies Football MEDIA GUIDE

Carney, a redshirt junior, will handle the snapping duties for the second consecutive year. Placekicking duties will be handled by redshirt junior Ryan Abbott, who was 32-of-34 on extra points and 8-of-11 on field goals in his first full season a year ago. “He’s gotten better and better each year and coming out of spring, he was our best extra point and field goal guy,” said Darragh. In the return game, expect redshirt junior Dexter Jordan to be in the mix on punt returns with a combination of redshirt junior Marquis Seamon, junior Hakeem Sillman, redshirt sophomores Alex Gooden and Michael Allen, and redshirt freshman Koran Jordan in the mix to handle kickoff returns. OUTLOOK “We’re excited about getting the group back,” explained Darragh. “Our guys have a great attitude coming in and we have excellent leadership this season. They started putting the building blocks and the foundation in the winter and the spring and we expect it to carry over into the fall.” The Huskies have the same exact schedule as last season with the exception of the venues flip-flopping for the 2017 season. Bloomsburg has six home games this season, beginning with the season-opener against Stonehill on September 2. Then, after crossover games at Clarion and at home against Gannon, the Huskies get into divisional play where they were picked to finish fourth in the PSAC East. But, as Darragh points out, it’s important to jump out of the gates quickly. “Stonehill, Clarion, and Gannon are certainly three tough games to open with but, the good thing is, that we have some familiarity with them now. It’s a challenging start and we have to have the mindset to play well early.” Divisional play starts with a home contest against Cheyney on September 23. “There is a lot of balance in our division and, as coaches, we need to put our guys in the best position to be successful and have the ability to play 60 minutes. The attitude and the leadership are there. Now it’s about the preparation and then, ultimately, the execution. We need to keep sharpening the axe.”

2017 Huskies Football MEDIA GUIDE


2016 GAME RECAPS Game 1 - SEPTEMBER 2, 2016 BLOOMSBURG 24, STONEHILL 20 EASTON, Mass. – It was a tale of two halves at W.B. Mason Stadium on Friday night. Fortunately for the Bloomsburg University football team, its first half was slightly better than Stonehill’s second half. The Huskies did all of their damage in the first half and escaped Stonehill with a 24-20 victory in front of a near capacity crowd in the season opener for both teams. Bloomsburg avenged last year’s season-opening 27-10 loss to the Skyhawks and improved to 4-1 lifetime against its rival from the Northeast-10 Conference. Senior running back Lawrence Elliott Jr. finished the night with 107 yards and three touchdowns on 17 carries while redshirt senior Joe Parsnik added 76 yards on 11 carries on the ground. However, most of that damage was done in the first half as the Huskies could muster only seven total yards of offense in the second half.

had a first-and-goal before a critical chop blocking penalty hurt the drive. Bloomsburg, which lost three yards in the fourth quarter, was forced to punt again setting up Stonehill’s final drive. But, the Huskies’ defense stiffened and kept the Skyhawks out of the endzone. Palubinsky finished his first collegiate start by completing 11-of-21 passes for 139 yards and one interception. Redshirt junior tight end Aaron Allison, who missed all of last season with an injury, caught four passes for 32 yards. Redshirt freshman Michael Allen had two catches for 44 yards. Defensively, redshirt senior Andrew Harris led the way with nine total tackles and a forced fumble. Redshirt sophomore Nate Monroe had eight stops while redshirt junior Eric Schwartz had seven tackles and a tackle for a loss.

But, the defense came up with big plays when it needed to thanks, in large part, to redshirt senior Ezra Ranco and redshirt sophomore Chris Gary. Ranco blocked a field goal and recovered a fumble in the fourth quarter while Gary came with a heavy pass rush on backto-back plays during Stonehill’s final drive – one that resulted in an intentional grounding penalty while the other culminated in an 11-yard sack on the Skyhawks’ final play. Bloomsburg had 316 yards of offense in the first half and outgained the Skyhawks 316-155 in the opening thirty minutes. Stonehill turned the tide in the second half, outgaining Bloomsburg 242-7 to finish with a 74 yard edge in total offense (397-323). However, Stonehill was able to score just ten points and fell four points shy of a comeback. Elliott, Jr. had a monster first half for the Huskies, carrying the ball 13 times for 112 yards and a career-high-tying three touchdowns. The senior running back set the tone early, capping off an eight-play, 75-yard drive with a four-yard touchdown run on Bloomsburg’s opening possession of the 2016 campaign. Redshirt sophomore Ryan Abbott added the extra point and the Huskies led 7-0 with 11:07 left in the opening quarter. Then, after an interception by redshirt senior Jerrin Toomey near midfield, Bloomsburg’s ensuing drive stalled at the Stonehill five-yard line and the Huskies had to settle for Abbott’s first collegiate field goal – a 22-yarder – to give the visitors a 10-0 lead with 6:48 left in the opening quarter. Stonehill fought back and scored the game’s next ten points to knot the game at 10-10. Mike Cordova capped a 10-play, 62-yard drive with a nine-yard run with 1:50 left in the opening quarter to cut the Huskies’ lead to 10-7. Matthew Haite added a 36-yard field goal with 10:13 left in the first half to tie the score. After a touchback gave the ball to the Huskies at their own 25-yard line, Elliott, Jr. took a handoff from redshirt junior quarterback Chris Palubinsky, scampered around left end, sprinted down the sideline, and scored from 75 yards out to put the Huskies ahead, after Abbott’s extra point, 17-10. It marked a career-long run for Elliott, Jr. and put the back over the century mark for the first half. The Huskies forced a punt from Justin Kaffenberger and got the ball back with 9:11 left in the half. Seventeen plays, 63 yards, and 8:12 later, Elliott, Jr. powered his way into the endzone from a yard out to give the Huskies a two-touchdown lead as the teams headed to the locker room. All told, Bloomsburg outgained Stonehill, 187-65, on the ground in the first half and held a 316-155 overall margin in total offense after thirty minutes. Palubinsky, making his first collegiate start, looked impressive, completing 9-of-15 passes for 129 yards. As impressive as the Huskies’ offense was in the first half, it went south in the third quarter as the Skyhawks pulled to within a touchdown after three. Stonehill quarterback Matt Foltz provided the only points of the quarter, plunging in from one-yard out to culminate a 13-play, 55-yard drive that consumed just over five minutes of time to cut the lead to 24-17 with 5:06 left. Then, after Palubinsky was picked off at midfield, Bloomsburg was able to dodge a bullet thanks to a blocked 40-yard field goal attempt by Ranco. The Huskies managed just ten offensive yards in the third quarter while Stonehill racked up 118 yards of offense. With the Skyhawks driving at the outset of the fourth quarter, the Huskies’ defense came up with a game-saving turnover. After a pass completion to the Bloomsburg 10-yard line, redshirt senior Marquez Norford forced a fumble that was recovered by Ranco to give the Huskies the ball back. But, Bloomsburg’s offense continued its cold spell and was forced to punt after a three-and-out.

2016 GAME RECAPS Game 2 - SEPTEMBER 10, 2016 BLOOMSBURG 35, CLARION 20 BLOOMSBURG, Pa. - The Bloomsburg University football team got a strong defensive effort, slowing down the high-powered Clarion University offense, en route to a 35-20 victory in front of 4,087 fans on a hazy, hot, and humid Saturday afternoon at Redman Stadium in the Huskies’ home opener. The Huskies forced four Clarion turnovers - two interceptions and two fumbles - and limited the Golden Eagles to 356 yards of total offense. It was a far cry from the 497 yards - 396 through the air - they had amassed in their season opening victory over Lock Haven last Thursday. Meanwhile, Bloomsburg’s offense bounced back from its season-opening win at Stonehill last Friday to the tune of 490 yards of total offense on Saturday afternoon - 246 on the ground and 244 through the air. Redshirt junior quarterback Chris Palubinsky, making his first collegiate home start, completed 16-of-26 passes for 244 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. The 244 yards passing marked a new career high and was the highest total by a Husky quarterback in a game since Tim Kelly threw for 293 yards at Slippery Rock in the PSAC Championship game on November 15, 2014.

The visitors tried to make one last-ditch effort to get back into the game. But, redshirt senior Ezra Ranco picked off Simmons at midfield and the Huskies were able to run out the clock from there. The Huskies offense bounced back with 28 first downs, 490 yards of offense, and held the ball for 37:47 against Clarion. Palubinsky, who threw for 139 yards in the opener, got off to a slow start, but was sharp down the stretch to finish with 244 yards through the air. Redshirt senior wide receiver Chad Hoffman had four catches for 71 yards to lead the receiving corps. Elliott Jr. and Parsnik, once again, provided the 1-2 punch the Bloomsburg coaching staff expected as they combined for 224 yards and two scores on the ground. Elliott Jr. added 50 yards on two kickoff returns to finish with 184 all-purpose yards. Parsnik, meanwhile, added three catches for 32 yards out of the backfield. Defensively, redshirt senior Joe Wetty led the Huskies with six total tackles. Ranco finished with five stops and an interception while Toomey had three tackles and the big fumble return for a touchdown.

Senior running back Lawrence Elliott Jr. posted his second 100-yard game of the season by finishing with 134 yards and one touchdown on 27 carries to lead the Huskies’ rushing attack. Redshirt senior Joe Parsnik added 90 yards and a score on 15 carries in the victory. Bloomsburg jumped out in front when Palubinsky connected with redshirt sophomore wide receiver Jake Scott on a 38-yard strike to the corner of the endzone with 5:53 left in the opening quarter. It was Scott’s first collegiate touchdown reception. Redshirt sophomore Ryan Abbott, who had hit the right upright on a 34-yard field goal earlier in the quarter, added the extra point for a 7-0 lead. But, the Golden Eagles bounced back with a pair of second-quarter touchdowns to take a 13-7 lead. Quarterback Connor Simmons found Matt Lehman, who made a leaping one-handed grab, from six yards out to get the visitors on the scoreboard with 8:20 left in the first half. Redshirt junior Darnell Baldwin, however, blocked the extra point to keep the Huskies in front by a 7-6 score. Then, after a three-and-out by the Huskies’ offense, Clarion’s Kyle Evans returned the punt 47 yards to the Bloomsburg 10-yard line to give the visitors a first-and-goal. On the first play, Delrece Williams scampered up the middle and found paydirt to give the Golden Eagles, after the point after by Phil Esposito, a 13-7 lead with 6:05 left in the opening half. Palubinsky led the Bloomsburg offense down the field and capped off a 13-play, 75-yard drive by calling his own number for a one-yard keeper into the endzone with 30 seconds left to put the Huskies in front, 14-13, after the Abbott point after try as the teams headed to the locker room. Bloomsburg, which won the opening coin toss and deferred, got the ball to start the second half. On that drive, the Huskies went 72 yards in eight plays with Elliott Jr. finding the endzone from 13 yards out. Abbott added the point after to give the Huskies a 21-13 lead with 10:52 left in the third quarter. On Clarion’s ensuing possession, redshirt sophomore Dexter Jordan gave the Huskies good field position with an interception of Simmons near midfield. Bloomsburg’s offense took advantage of the opportunity with Parsnik finding a big hole up the middle and going untouched into the endzone from 27 yards out to give the Huskies their biggest lead of the game, 28-13, with 8:24 left in the third. The Golden Eagles were not done, however, as Simmons found Connor Genevro from 34 yards out with three seconds left in the third quarter to cut the Huskies’ lead, after Esposito’s extra point, to 28-20 heading to the final fifteen minutes - and it appeared that the Huskies were in for a nail-biter for the second week in a row. Bloomsburg’s offense was held to a three-and-out to start the fourth quarter, but senior punter Will Wagner connected on a 62-yard boot - three yards shy of his career-long - to send the Golden Eagles all the way back to their own ten-yard line. On that possession, Clarion got to the Bloomsburg 48-yard line before redshirt sophomore linebacker Nate Monroe forced a fumble with junior Osman Toure recovering at the Huskies’ 41 to give the hosts the ball back. It appeared that the Huskies were in excellent position to put more points on the board, getting a first-and-goal from the Clarion nine-yard line. But Elliott Jr. fumbled the ball back to the Golden Eagles to set up a Clarion drive with 5:06 left in regulation and the Huskies hanging on to an eight-point lead. Clarion’s drive started promising as back-to-back plays resulted in 33 yards to get to its own 42-yard line. On the next play, however, Williams, who fumbled earlier in the quarter, coughed up the ball again as redshirt junior Scott Beltz knocked the ball loose. After a scrum, redshirt senior Jerrin Toomey scooped up the ball and scampered 37 yards down the right sideline for a touchdown to give the Huskies a 35-20 lead, after Abbott’s extra point, with 3:52 left.

2016 GAME RECAPS Game 3 - SEPTEMBER 17, 2016 GANNON 30, BLOOMSBURG 27 (OT) ERIE, Pa. – It came down to one bounce on Saturday afternoon at Gannon University’s McConnell Family Stadium. Unfortunately for the Bloomsburg University football team, the ball just didn’t bounce its way. Facing a third-and-goal from the Bloomsburg one-yard line in its first possession of overtime, Gannon running back Tyler Johnson fumbled before getting into the endzone. After a lengthy scrum, however, Johnson recovered the loose ball in the endzone to propel the hosts to a 30-27 overtime victory over the Huskies in a battle of previously unbeaten teams. In Bloomsburg’s overtime possession, a costly holding penalty negated a long run from senior Lawrence Elliott Jr. on the drive’s first play and the Huskies had to settle for a career-long-tying 42-yard field goal from freshman Kyle Butts to take a 27-24 lead. Butts, earlier in the game, hit from 42 yards out for his first collegiate field goal. On Gannon’s possession, the Golden Knights methodically drove 24 yards in eight plays – all running plays. It was the ninth play of the drive that produced the game-ending fireworks.

capitalize. Regulation, in fact, ended with senior Jarell Boyd-Ross picking off Palka in the endzone on a hail-mary attempt from the Bloomsburg 45-yard line. After allowing 250 yards of offense to Gannon in the first half, the Huskies allowed only 58 yards in the second half and overtime sessions as the hosts finished with 308 yards of offense. Bloomsburg managed 399 yards of offense – 224 through the air and 175 on the ground. Elliott Jr. finished with 111 yards and three touchdowns on 25 carries. Palubinsky completed 15-of-35 passes for 224 yards but was picked off twice. Redshirt senior Chad Hoffman (six catches, 97 yards) and Allen (six catches, 82 yards) combined for 12 catches and 179 yards. The yardage totals were both career-highs. Redshirt senior Andrew Harris recorded a career-high 13 total tackles, one tackle for a loss, one pass breakup, and two forced fumbles. Toomey added nine tackles and an interception while redshirt freshman Alex Annan posted a career-best eight total stops.

It was an inauspicious start for the Huskies as Elliott Jr. caught the opening kickoff but momentum carried him out-of-bounds at the Bloomsburg two-yard line. Then, before the Huskies even ran a play, Bloomsburg had to burn a timeout for having the wrong personnel on the field. But, the Huskies quickly turned the opening game hiccups into seven points as they drove 98 yards on 11 plays in 4:31 with Elliott Jr. capping off the impressive drive with a seven-yard touchdown run – his first of three rushing touchdowns on the afternoon. After the teams exchanged punts, Gannon’s Nico Law returned senior Will Wagner’s boot 29 yards to the Bloomsburg 38-yard line to give the hosts excellent field position on their second drive of the game. Gannon took advantage, driving six plays with quarterback Zach Phillips scampering into the endzone from four yards out to tie the game at 7-7 with 5:29 left in the opening quarter. Bloomsburg drove down the field on its next possession, aided by a first-down run of 19 yards on 3rd-and-14 by redshirt senior Joe Parsnik to the Gannon 26-yard line. Three plays later, however, redshirt junior Chris Palubinsky was picked off at the Gannon 20-yard line by Mike Zanders to eliminate a chance at points. The Golden Knights again took advantage as they drove 80 yards in five plays with the big play being a 59-yard screen pass from Tyler Palka to Tyler Johnson to set up first-and-goal from the Huskies’ 10-yard line. Two plays later, on the first play of the second quarter, Johnson had his number called again and he plunged into the endzone from five yards out to give the Golden Knights their first lead, 14-7, after the extra point. Bloomsburg went three-and-out on its ensuing possession but Wagner booted a 55-yard punt that went out-of-bounds at the Gannon two-yard line to seemingly give the Huskies an advantage in the field position battle. However, the Golden Knights had other ideas as they drove 88 yards on 13 plays but stalled at the Bloomsburg 10-yard line. Gannon, despite the impressive drive, had to settle for three points on a 28-yard field goal from Karch Holland to take a 17-7 lead with 7:59 left in the first half. The Huskies got their offense back on track on their next possession. Facing a third-and-two from the Bloomsburg 32-yard line, Elliott Jr. rambled 23 yards for a first down to the Gannon 45-yard line. Later in the drive, facing a third-and-nine from the Gannon 16, Palubinsky hit redshirt freshman Michael Allen on a 16-yard strike to set up a first-and-goal from the five. Three plays later, Elliott Jr. plowed into the endzone from a yard out to cut the Gannon lead to 17-14 after redshirt sophomore Ryan Abbott booted the extra point. Redshirt senior Jerrin Toomey then gave the Huskies an opportunity on Gannon’s next possession when he picked off Phillips at the Bloomsburg 31-yard line and returned it 16 yards to the 47. The Huskies, with time winding down in the half, had their drive stall at the Gannon 24-yard line but got a game-tying 42-yard field goal from Butts with three seconds left to send the teams to the locker rooms tied at 17. The momentum shift carried into the second half as the Bloomsburg defense stiffened. On Gannon’s second drive of the half, the Golden Knights were forced to punt from their own 11-yard line. Freshman Ethan Price seemingly blocked the punt with the ball bouncing out of the back of the endzone that would have resulted in a safety. However, the Huskies were assessed an offsides penalty negating the big play. But, a bad snap on Gannon’s next punt attempt resulted in punter Jarod Morrison falling down on the ball at the one-yard line to give the Huskies first-and-goal. Elliott Jr., on the first play of the drive, ran around right end and into the endzone to give the Huskies a 24-17 lead with 6:02 left in the third quarter. The lead remained intact until Palubinsky was picked off at the Bloomsburg 41-yard line with 10:31 left in the fourth quarter. Gannon’s Nathan Adams returned the interception 16 yards to the 25-yard line and, to add insult to injury, Bloomsburg was assessed a personal foul penalty on top of that to give the Golden Knights the ball at the Huskies’ 13-yard line. Four plays later, Johnson plunged into the endzone from two yards out with Holland tying the game at 24-24, with 9:05 left, with his extra point. Both teams had opportunities to end the game in regulation, but neither team was able to

2016 GAME RECAPS Game 4 - SEPTEMBER 24, 2016 BLOOMSBURG 54, CHEYNEY 14 CHEYNEY, Pa. – The Bloomsburg University football team scored six rushing touchdowns – three from senior running back Lawrence Elliott Jr. – and took advantage of four Cheyney University turnovers en route to a 54-14 victory on Saturday afternoon at O’Shields-Stevenson Stadium. Elliott Jr. accounted for four touchdowns on the afternoon – adding a 65-yard punt return for a score in the second quarter – but finished the day with a season-low 64 rushing yards on 13 carries. He did, however, become the latest running back to record 2,000 career yards on the ground with a 20-yard scamper in the second quarter. He entered the contest needing 49 yards to eclipse the milestone. Redshirt freshmen Qmac Quiteh and Alexander Arcangeli accounted for the other three rushing scores on the afternoon. Quiteh, the younger brother of Bloomsburg’s all-time leading rusher Franklyn Quiteh, had his first two collegiate touchdowns in the fourth quarter while Arcangeli’s first collegiate score came during a 23-point second quarter for the Huskies.

averaged 7.9 yards per play. Elliott Jr. finished with 64 yards and three scores on 13 carries. Arcangeli had 54 yards on only four carries while Quiteh added 38 yards and two scores on five carries. Redshirt freshman Tre Green also saw his first collegiate carries and finished with 16 yards on four totes. Palubinsky finished 7-of-12 for 159 yards passing while redshirt freshman Duffy Gilhool finished 1-of-3 for 12 yards. Allison had two catches for 60 yards while Allen had the lone catch for 62 yards. Defensively, redshirt senior Andrew Harris led the Huskies with eight total tackles while redshirt junior Eric Schwartz added seven. Pellechia had six stops, a tackle for a loss, and a forced fumble. Annan recovered two fumbles on the afternoon and sophomore Chris Gary had both of Bloomsburg’s sacks. Bloomsburg extended its winning streaks to 27 straight against the Wolves in the all-time series and 17 straight in Cheyney. Bloomsburg has not lost to its PSAC East-rival since 1989.

Cheyney played keep-away from the Huskies in the first half as Bloomsburg ran just 21 offensive plays and held the ball for only 9:24 in the opening thirty minutes. Despite the lopsided time of possession margin, the Huskies built up a 23-7 advantage at the break. After a scoreless first quarter that saw the Huskies run just seven offensive plays, redshirt sophomore Ryan Abbott put the first points on the scoreboard with a career-long 37-yard field goal with 12:01 left in the first half to give Bloomsburg a 3-0 lead. The three-pointer capped off an 11-play, 65-yard drive. After the Wolves went three-and-out on their ensuing possession, Elliott Jr. caught a Brandon Van Demark punt at the Huskies’ 35-yard line, broke a few tackles, regained his balance, and scampered up the left sideline for a 65-yard punt return for a score. It was the third punt return for a touchdown in Elliott Jr.’s career and was the Huskies’ first since he returned one 70 yards at Mercyhurst on September 20, 2014. Abbott added the point after for a 10-0 lead. On Cheyney’s next drive, sophomore Nick Pellechia forced a fumble from running back Erik Heller, which was recovered by redshirt freshman Alex Annan, on the Wolves’ second play from scrimmage to give the Huskies the ball right back at the Cheyney 31-yard line. Two running plays from Arcangeli, the latter being a 24-yard powerful run in which he broke several tackles and carried defenders across the goal line, and Bloomsburg was back in the endzone with 7:27 left to play in the first half. Abbott again added the point after for a 17-0 advantage. The hosts fought back and got on the scoreboard when Heller found paydirt from ten yards out with 1:19 left in the half to cut the Huskies’ lead to 17-7 after Van Demark’s point after was good. But, the Huskies were not done. On the first play of the ensuing possession, redshirt junior Chris Palubinsky hooked up with redshirt junior tight end Aaron Allison on a 51-yard pass reception to give the Huskies a first-and-goal from the Cheyney eight-yard line. After Palubinsky hit freshman Ethan Price on a six-yard pass play, Elliott Jr. finished off the drive with a two-yard run to put the Huskies ahead, after Abbott’s point after was blocked, 23-7 at halftime. On the first drive of the second half, Bloomsburg needed just two plays to get back into the endzone. Palubinsky connected with redshirt freshman Michael Allen on a 62-yard reception to get the Huskies down to the Cheyney seven. Elliott Jr. then went untouched across the goal line for a seven-yard touchdown as Bloomsburg took a 30-7 advantage with 13:41 left in the third quarter. But, the Wolves again clawed back and drove 12 plays and 74 yards in seven minutes and, after Brandon French scored from four yards out, Cheyney found themselves trailing only 30-14 with 6:41 left in the third quarter. The Huskies, however, scored the final 24 points of the game to come away with the 40-point victory. Elliott Jr. started the scoring with a two-yard touchdown run – his third of the game – with 1:37 left in the third quarter to extend the lead to 37-14. In the fourth quarter, Quiteh scored from five-yards out for his first career score as the Huskies took a 44-14 lead with 12:09 left. Abbott connected on a 21-yard field goal to cap off Bloomsburg’s next drive and then Quiteh finished the scoring with a six-yard burst into the endzone with 6:52 left in the contest. Despite the lopsided margin on the scoreboard, statistics were relatively even. Bloomsburg totaled 380 yards of offense – 209 on the ground and 171 through the air – while the Wolves finished with 305 total yards. Cheyney did have more first downs (21-15) and held the ball for 37:36 but committed four turnovers and 11 penalties. The Huskies ran only 48 plays and

2016 GAME RECAPS Game 5 - OCTOBER 1, 2016 BLOOMSBURG 29, MILLERSVILLE 15 BLOOMSBURG, Pa. - Senior running back Lawrence Elliott Jr. rushed for 130 yards and two touchdowns while the defense provided eight sacks and two interceptions as the Bloomsburg University football team earned a hard-fought, 29-15, victory over visiting Millersville University on Saturday afternoon at Redman Stadium. Bloomsburg has now won its first two PSAC East contests for the ninth consecutive season and extended its winning streak against Millersville to 17 straight. The Huskies have not lost to Millersville since a 31-21 setback in Bloomsburg during the 1999 campaign. Millersville jumped in front 7-0 with the only touchdown of the opening quarter as quarterback J.J. Paige connected with Tyler Zilen on a six-yard scoring strike with 2:06 left in the first stanza. Evan Stahl added the point after try. The Huskies were fortunate, though, to be trailing by only seven after the first quarter as Millersville made some costly mistakes on its drive prior to the only score of the quarter. After redshirt junior Chris Palubinsky was picked off by Millersville’s Kendall Marks - who returned the pick 24 yards to the Bloomsburg 20 yard line - Paige hit Kevin Wiggins on a 14-yard pass to set up a first-and-goal from the Huskies’ six. The Marauders would actually get into the endzone twice on the drive - however, both were erased on penalties. Then, after redshirt sophomore Chris Gary brought down Paige for his first of two sacks on the afternoon, the Marauders were actually taken out of field goal range and had to punt the ball away.

Bloomsburg 11 yard line but the second sack of the game by Gary set up fourth-and-14 and Paige could not hook up with Wiggins as Millersville turned it over on downs. The Huskies played keep-away on their next drive which started with 5:24 left. Despite not adding any more points, the Huskies turned the ball over on downs with only 28 seconds remaining to secure the win. Millersville’s last drive resulted in back-to-back sacks by redshirt junior Tony Le and redshirt senior Joe Wetty to end the contest. Bloomsburg earned the edge in the total yardage battle, 421-351. The Huskies racked up 185 yards on the ground and held the Marauders to just 53 yards rushing on the afternoon. Bloomsburg also did a great job of getting its defense off the field as Millersville was just 3-of-16 on third-down opportunities and only 2-of-4 when it reached the red zone. Penalties also cost Millersville as it was penalized 12 times for 100 yards on the day. Elliott Jr. led the ground attack with 130 yards while redshirt senior Joe Parsnik added 33 yards on nine carries. Palubinsky finished 13-of-25 for 236 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. Hoffman hauled in a team-high four passes while Allen had three catches for 82 yards. Defensively, the Huskies entered the contest with six sacks through the first four games but had eight on Saturday - two each by Gary and redshirt junior Scott Beltz. Redshirt senior Andrew Harris led the team with seven total tackles.

On Bloomsburg’s ensuing possession after Millersville took the lead, the Huskies drove 47 yards on ten plays but had to settle for a 39-yard field goal from freshman Kyle Butts with 13:13 left in the second quarter to cut the Marauders’ advantage to 7-3. After the Huskies’ defense forced a Millersville punt, Bloomsburg was finally able to get into the endzone on its next drive to take a 10-7 lead. The big play of the drive was a 62-yard strike from Palubinsky to redshirt freshman Michael Allen that set up first-and-ten from the Millersville 13 yard line. Two plays later, Palubinsky found redshirt senior Chad Hoffman in the corner of the endzone from 12 yards out to give the Huskies their first lead of the game. It was Palubinsky’s second touchdown pass of the season and Hoffman’s first scoring reception of the year. Redshirt sophomore Ryan Abbott added the point after. Bloomsburg’s next possession resulted in three more points as the Huskies grabbed a 13-7 lead with 3:40 left in the opening half. Freshman Ethan Price had the big play of the drive when he was on the receiving end of a 29-yard pass from Palubinsky to get into Millersville territory. The drive stalled, however, at the Marauders’ 21 and Butts came on to attempt a 40-yard field goal. Another Millersville penalty proved costly as the Maraduers were offsides as Butts missed from 40 yards out. The freshman, however, drilled it from 35 yards away, after the penalty, to extend the Huskies’ lead. The turning point of the game, however, was arguably on Millersville’s next drive. With time winding down in the first half, the Marauders were able to convert a fourth-andthree from midfield to keep their drive alive. Three plays later, however, redshirt sophomore Dexter Jordan picked off Paige at the Bloomsburg 35 yard line and returned it 50 yards to the Millersville 15 to give the Huskies excellent field position. Bloomsburg’s offense took advantage of Jordan’s third career pick as Palubinsky hooked up with Hoffman on a 12-yard pass and then Elliott Jr. tiptoed into the corner of the endzone from three yards out to give the Huskies a 19-7 lead with 43 seconds left in the half. Bloomsburg rattled off ten more points in the third quarter, extending the streak to 29 unanswered points, to take a 29-7 advantage. On the first possession of the second half, Elliott Jr. burst through a hole in the middle of the line and sprinted his way to a 43-yard touchdown run to cap off a five-play, 66-yard drive. Abbott added the point after as the Huskies ballooned their lead to 26-7. Then, after redshirt sophomore Marquis Seamon picked off his second pass of the season to end another Millersville drive, the Huskies were able to turn that into three more points as their lead increased to 29-7. Back-to-back passing plays of 35 yards and 21 yards from Palubinsky to Elliott Jr. set the Huskies up for a first-and-goal from the four. However, the Millersville defense stiffened and Abbott had to come on to boot a 21-yard field goal with 6:43 left in the third. Millersville scored, what proved to be, the final points of the game on its ensuing possession. Paige connected with Wiggins on a seven-yard touchdown to end a 10-play, 66-yard drive. The Marauders went for two and Paige scampered around left end and into the corner of the endzone for the conversion to cut the Huskies’ lead to 29-15 with 2:39 left in the third quarter. Bloomsburg’s player of the game in the fourth quarter may have been senior punter Will Wagner. Wagner single-handedly won the field position battle as he had back-to-back punts downed at the Millersville two and the one, respectively. Then, a third punt traveled 50 yards in the air and, after a great special teams’ tackle from redshirt sophomore Josh Salak, the Marauders had to start at their 14. On that drive, the Marauders drove all the way to the

2016 GAME RECAPS Game 6 - OCTOBER 8, 2016 KUTZTOWN 34, BLOOMSBURG 24 KUTZTOWN, Pa. - The Bloomsburg University football team spotted Kutztown University 27 points in the opening 21 minutes of the contest and could not complete the comeback as the Huskies dropped a 34-24 decision at Andre Reed Stadium on Saturday afternoon. The Golden Bears scored on four of their first six possessions and had the ball in the red zone on the other two drives as they raced out to a 27-0 lead over the Huskies with 9:02 left in the opening half. Kutztown quarterback Collin DiGalbo, who had a huge afternoon for the Golden Bears, found Nathan Hollander on a 22-yard touchdown pass to get the first points on the board with 11:28 left in the opening quarter. Then, after Kutztown forced a three-and-out, the Golden Bears drove to the Bloomsburg 12 yard line but turned the ball over on downs after a dropped pass in the endzone nullified further damage.

Kutztown’s 542 yards of total offense were the most allowed by Bloomsburg since giving up 554 yards to Shippensburg on October 31, 2013. Elliott Jr. finished the day with a season-low 43 yards rushing and two touchdowns on 16 carries. Redshirt senior Joe Parsnik added 14 yards on the ground on five totes. Palubinsky was sacked three times, however, for a loss of 28 yards which lessened the rushing total. The redshirt junior quarterback did have a nice day throwing the football, though, as he was 18-of-35 for a career-high 267 yards and one touchdown. Allen caught a career-high seven passes for 88 yards while redshirt senior Chad Hoffman caught six passes for 73 yards. Defensively, Harris led the Huskies with 12 total tackles. Senior Jarell Boyd-Ross posted a career-high 11 tackles while Toomey added a career-best ten stops and a forced fumble. Redshirt sophomore Dexter Jordan had seven tackles, one tackle for a loss, and his third interception of the season.

On the Huskies’ ensuing possession, it appeared that Bloomsburg had tied the game when senior running back Lawrence Elliott Jr. broke a 61-yard run into the Golden Bears’ endzone. However, it turned out to be, arguably, the changing point as the Huskies were flagged for an offsides penalty and the Bloomsburg drive stalled. The hosts took advantage on their next possession. Facing a third-and-three from his own 18-yard line, DiGalbo drew his own number, found a hole, and scampered up the left sideline for an 82-yard touchdown run to give the Golden Bears a 13-0 lead. Redshirt junior Nick Pellechia blocked the extra point. In the first quarter alone, Kutztown held a 172-12 advantage in yards of total offense and jumped out to a 13-0 lead. Things got worse for the Huskies as the Golden Bears scored on their first two possessions of the second quarter to take a 27-0 lead. Craig Reynolds scored the first touchdown on a 30-yard run with 12:37 left in the opening half. Then, after another three-and-out from the Huskies’ offense, DiGalbo found paydirt again, this time from 15 yards out, with 9:02 left for Kutztown’s 27-point lead. Bloomsburg got on the board on its next drive, aided by a 50-yard screen pass from redshirt junior Chris Palubinsky to Elliott Jr. that took the ball to the Kutztown 14 yard line. Three plays later, Elliott Jr. scored from seven yards out and, after redshirt sophomore Ryan Abbott added the extra point, the Huskies trailed 27-7 with 6:25 left in the first half. The Golden Bears drove all the way to the Bloomsburg 10 yard line on their next drive but redshirt senior Jerrin Toomey forced a fumble that was recovered by redshirt senior Andrew Harris to give the Huskies life in the closing moments of the half. However, the Huskies were forced to punt again and the half came to a close with the hosts leading by a 27-7 margin. In the opening thirty minutes, Kutztown amassed 222 yards on the ground on only 21 carries and added another 147 yards through the air for 369 yards of total offense. The Huskies, on the flip side, were held to 107 yards which included only 15 yards on the ground. Bloomsburg’s defense made some adjustments at halftime and was able to keep the Golden Bears off the scoreboard in the third quarter. However, the Huskies continued to struggle moving the ball against Kutztown and were held to just a 31-yard field goal from Abbott with 2:31 left in the third to cut the Golden Bears’ lead to 27-10 heading to the fourth quarter. With Kutztown driving at the start of the fourth quarter, the Huskies were able to force the Golden Bears to turn the ball over on downs for a chance to cut further into the lead. On Bloomsburg’s possession, Palubinsky went 6-of-7 for 80 yards and capped off the drive when he found redshirt freshman Michael Allen on an 11-yard touchdown pass with 9:43 left as the Huskies found themselves only down ten, 27-17, with plenty of time left. The touchdown reception was the first score of Allen’s career. However, the Golden Bears put together an 11-play, 67-yard drive that took 6:50 off the clock on their next possession with DiGalmo finding Hollander for a three-yard touchdown pass to extend the lead to 34-17 with just 2:53 remaining. On the drive, Kutztown was able to convert a third-and-13 from its own 43 and a fourth-and-three from the Bloomsburg 23. Bloomsburg made one last ditch effort at a comeback as it drove 65 yards on eight plays in 1:19 with Elliott Jr. capping off the drive with a two-yard run - his second touchdown of the game and 14th of the season. Abbott added the extra point to cut the lead to 34-24 with 1:34 left. The Huskies tried an onside kick but the Golden Bears were able to recover and run out the clock for the victory. Kutztown finished the day with 542 yards of total offense while the Huskies managed only 299 against the Golden Bear defense. Bloomsburg finished the day with only 32 rushing yards on 25 carries - the lowest rushing output by the Huskies in a single game since prior to the 1999 season. Bloomsburg’s previous low since the 1999 campaign came on September 13, 2003 when the Huskies managed only 36 rushing yards on 33 carries.

2016 GAME RECAPS Game 7 - OCTOBER 15, 2016 WEST CHESTER 27, BLOOMSBURG 7 BLOOMSBURG, Pa. - The Bloomsburg University football team struggled to generate much offense on Saturday afternoon and dropped a 27-7 decision to visiting West Chester University in front of 5,127 fans at a jam-packed Danny Hale Field at Redman Stadium on Homecoming Weekend. The Huskies, who have dropped two straight, fell to 4-3 overall and 2-2 in the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) Eastern Division while the Golden Rams improved to 4-3 overall and 3-1 against divisional opponents. The Huskies were dangerously close to getting shutout for the first time since a 21-0 loss, at home, to Shippensburg on September 13, 2003. But, on their final drive, the Huskies drove 87 yards on seven plays which was capped off by a 16-yard touchdown pass from redshirt sophomore Duffy Gilhool to redshirt senior Chad Hoffman with 16 seconds remaining to extend Bloomsburg’s streak of scoring to 158 consecutive games. The touchdown pass by Gilhool, who came on in relief of redshirt junior Chris Palubinsky on the last drive before halftime, was the first of his career. Meanwhile, Hoffman established a new career-high with his second touchdown reception of the season. That, unfortunately, would be the lone offensive bright spot on an afternoon that saw the Huskies manage a season-low 246 yards with just 54 of those (all rushing yards) coming in the first half. Bloomsburg quarterbacks did not complete a pass in the first half and did not pick up their first completion of the afternoon untl Gilhool hit redshirt junior tight end Aaron Allison for ten yards with under twelve minutes to play in the third quarter. After a scoreless first quarter that featured seven combined punts, the Golden Rams got on the board on their first possession of the second quarter. Despite senior Will Wagner pinning West Chester on its own six with a 39-yard punt, the visitors drove 94 yards on 11 plays, ending with a nine-yard touchdown run from Jarel Elder with 8:08 left to play in the first half. Brendan Paulison added the extra point for a 7-0 advantage. The Huskies went three-and-out on their ensuing possession and the Golden Rams took advantage with their second touchdown of the quarter to take a 14-0 lead with 5:19 left in the opening thirty minutes. A big 46-yard pass play from quarterback Pat Moriarty to Tyler Karpinski got the Golden Rams to the Bloomsburg 17 yard line, setting up an 18-yard touchdown pass from Moriarty to Marcus Sydnor two plays later. Despite being outgained 223-54 in the first half, the Huskies found themselves trailing by only two touchdowns as the teams went to their respective locker rooms. The score remained 14-0 until Elder scored his second rushing touchdown of the afternoon - this time a two-yard plunge - with 8:18 left in the fourth quarter to extend the West Chester lead to 20-0. Paulison missed the extra point wide right. The visitors added their final score of the day when Paul Dooley went untouched into the endzone from three yards out with 2:56 left to give West Chester a 27-0 advantage. The only thing left to decide at that point was if the Huskies would be able to keep their consecutive games streak of not being shut out alive. Gilhool, who went 5-for-6 on the Huskies’ final drive, was able to keep the streak intact when he hit Hoffman just shy of the endzone. The redshirt senior made a great catch, got both feet in-bounds, and touched the pilon before going out-of-bounds to get points on the scoreboard. It was Hoffman’s first catch of the afternoon. Gilhool finished the day completing 10-of-19 for 146 yards and the score while also adding 23 yards rushing on seven carries. His favorite target was true freshman Ethan Price who enjoyed a breakout game on Saturday afternoon. He finished with career-highs in receptions (5) and receiving yards (80). On the ground, senior running back Lawrence Elliott Jr. was bottled up for much of the day as he managed just 55 yards on 14 carries. Redshirt senior Joe Parsnik added 19 yards on six carries.

Eerin Young led West Chester with 97 yards rushing on 11 carries while Elder toted the ball 18 times for 86 yards and two scores. Moriarty was an efficient 11-of-18 for 197 yards and a touchdown with Karpinski finishing with four catches for 105 yards. Defensively, redshirt senior Andrew Harris led the Huskies with a career-high 14 total tackles - eight of which were solo stops. Redshirt sophomore Chris Gary had the team’s only sack of the game to give him a team-leading eight on the season. Pete Galiano led West Chester with seven tackles while John Dubyk had six stops, four tackles for a loss, and one of the Golden Rams’ three sacks. Wagner had a brilliant day punting the football for the Huskies as he averaged 41.3 yards on nine attempts which included a 65-yard boot in the first quarter that tied a career-long he previously set against Mercyhurst on September 19, 2015.

2016 GAME RECAPS Game 8 - OCTOBER 22, 2016 BLOOMSBURG 35, EAST STROUDSBURG 14 BLOOMSBURG, Pa. - The Bloomsburg University football team scored 35 second-half points and ran for a season-high 283 yards en route to a 35-14 victory over visiting East Stroudsburg University on a windy Saturday afternoon at Danny Hale Field at Redman Stadium. Senior Lawrence Elliott Jr. collected his fifth 100-yard effort of the season by finishing with 124 yards and three touchdowns on 17 carries. It also marked the fourth time this season that Elliott Jr. has had three rushing scores in a game - all of which have tied his career-high. Redshirt senior Joe Parsnik finished one yard shy of his season-high by racking up 89 yards on 16 carries, including a season-long 43-yard burst late in the third quarter.

Bloomsburg racked up 427 yards of total offense and limited the Warriors to 342 yards of offense, with only 95 of those coming on the ground. In addition to Elliott Jr.’s 124 yards and three touchdowns on the ground, he also added team-highs in catches (4) and receiving yards (43) to finish with 167 all-purpose yards. Redshirt senior tight end Nate Hoenl tied a career-high with three catches for 25 yards - none bigger than his seven-yard diving catch on fourth-and-four during the Huskies’ eight-minute drive in the fourth quarter. Defensively, redshirt senior Andrew Harris led the Huskies with nine tackles and a tackle for a loss. Senior Jarell Boyd-Ross added eight stops while redshirt sophomore Chris Gary had a career-high six tackles to go along with 1.5 sacks.

On the flip side, the Huskies’ defense limited the PSAC’s leading rusher, Robert Healy, to just 80 yards on 19 carries - four yards more than his season-low total of 76 yards in the Warriors’ 31-14 loss at Shippensburg. Bloomsburg did hold Healy to a season-low 109 all-purpose yards on Saturday afternoon as the redshirt senior tailback added four catches for 29 yards out of the backfield. His previous season-low was 124 all-purpose yards in the loss to the Raiders. Redshirt sophomore quarterback Duffy Gilhool made his first collegiate start under center and moved the ball efficiently for the Huskies. He completed 13-of-20 passes for 144 yards and added 65 yards and his first collegiate rushing touchdown on 14 carries. The windy conditions certainly created havoc in the opening half as neither team was able to put points on the scoreboard. The teams combined to miss three field goals in the opening half - two by the Huskies - and each team managed just 118 yards of total offense in the opening thirty minutes of action. Freshman Kyle Butts had the first opportunity as he attempted a 40-yard field goal with 7:20 left in the first quarter but missed wide left in the swirling wind. East Stroudsburg’s Nicolas Ruiz was short from 45 yards out on the Warriors’ opening drive of the second quarter and then redshirt sophomore Ryan Abbott missed wide right from 28 yards away on Bloomsburg’s ensuing possession. Bloomsburg, however, ran wild on the Warriors’ defense in the second half. After being held to 76 yards on 23 carries in the opening thirty minutes, the Huskies amassed 207 yards on only 26 carries in the final two quarters - averaging nearly eight yards per carry - and scored four times on the ground. On the opening possession of the third quarter, the Huskies drove 58 yards on ten plays with Gilhool calling his own number on a four-yard touchdown run for his first collegiate rushing score. Abbott added the point after and the Huskies led 7-0 with 9:16 left in the third quarter. Bloomsburg’s defense forced a punt on East Stroudsburg’s opening drive of the third quarter. However, the punt into the stiff wind from Sam O’Brien traveled only 17 yards which gave the Huskies excellent field position from their own 40 yard line. Gilhool connected with redshirt senior Chad Hoffman on a 12-yard gain to the Warriors’ 48 on the first play of the drive. The next play resulted in Elliott Jr.’s first rushing touchdown of the game - a 48-yard scamper through a big hole up the middle and then down the right sideline to give the Huskies, after Abbott’s point after, a 14-0 lead with 6:17 remaining in the third quarter. After another short punt by the Warriors into the gusty wind, the Huskies once again took advantage on their next drive. Parsnik had the big play of the possession with a 43-yard burst that he nearly broke for a touchdown up the right sideline. East Stroudsburg’s Andre’ Gray made the touchdown saving tackle, around the ankles, at the Warriors’ 11. The next play saw Elliott Jr. go nearly untouched for 11 yards to paydirt to give the Huskies a 21-0 advantage, after Abbott’s point after, with 1:51 remaining in the third quarter. The Warriors would make things interesting, however, with back-to-back touchdowns to start the fourth quarter. Healy got East Stroudsburg on the board with his 17th rushing touchdown of the season - a five-yard plunge into the endzone with 14:12 left. Ruiz added the extra point to cut the Huskies’ lead to 21-7. Then, after a Will Wagner punt, the Warriors marched down the field again, going 72 yards in only 71 seconds, capped off by a 37-yard touchdown pass from DiGiorgio to Nolan Ridgway. Ruiz, again, added the point after and, all of a sudden, the Huskies’ lead was 21-14 with 10:05 left in regulation. Bloomsburg, then, put together the drive of the game to essentially seal the victory. Gilhool and company methodically drove 75 yards on 15 plays that took eight minutes and five seconds off the clock. The Huskies converted two third downs and one fourth down during the possession that was capped off by Elliott Jr.’s third rushing touchdown of the game - a 13-yard run around left end into the corner of the endzone. The touchdown was the senior’s 17th of the season, tying him with Healy for the PSAC lead. Abbott added the point after and the Huskies regained a 14-point lead, 28-14, with just 2:02 remaining. East Stroudsburg made one last effort for a comeback but redshirt sophomore Dexter Jordan ended those thoughts when he picked off DiGiorgio and returned it 42 yards for his first collegiate touchdown to put the icing on the cake. It was Jordan’s second interception of the game and his fifth of the season.

2016 GAME RECAPS Game 9 - OCTOBER 29, 2016 LOCK HAVEN 26, BLOOMSBURG 18

Redshirt sophomore Marquis Seamon and redshirt senior Andrew Harris had eight tackles apiece. Kevin Chapple had nine tackles, three tackles for a loss, and two sacks to lead the Lock Haven defensive corps.

LOCK HAVEN, Pa. - The Bloomsburg University football team allowed 19 points in the span of 7:20 in the second half and suffered a 26-18 loss at the hands of Lock Haven University on Saturday afternoon at Hubert Jack Stadium. The Huskies entered the contest having won six straight meetings against the Bald Eagles dating back to a 17-15 Lock Haven victory on September 20, 2003. Lock Haven jumped out quickly, outgaining the Huskies 156-24 in the first quarter and getting the only points on the scoreboard when Caleb Walton found Cameron Tobias from eight yards out with 45 seconds left in the opening 15 minutes. Ethan Harro added the extra point to cap off a 14-play, 78-yard drive that took 6:50 off the clock. In the first quarter, the Bald Eagles held the ball for 10:34 and ran 23 plays compared to eight offensive snaps for Bloomsburg. The second quarter, however, proved to be a complete reversal. The Huskies knotted the game at 7-7 with an 11-play, 70-yard drive that took 5:29 off the clock. Senior running back Lawrence Elliott Jr. found paydirt for the 18th time this season when he scampered around right end from three yards out with 10:11 left in the opening half. Redshirt sophomore Ryan Abbott added the extra point. In the second quarter, Bloomsburg held the ball for 9:33 and outgained the Bald Eagles, 141-49, as the teams went to their respective locker rooms at halftime tied at 7-7. Lock Haven took control of the game in the third quarter when it scored two touchdowns in less than four minutes to take a 20-7 advantage after three quarters. John Ford gave the Bald Eagles the lead for good with a one-yard touchdown plunge with 5:31 left in the third. Harro, however, missed the extra point, as Lock Haven held a 13-7 lead. Then, after an interception, the Bald Eagles converted the turnover into seven points when Walton hit Shawn Seif on a 48-yard catch-and-run down the right sideline with 1:37 remaining in the third. Walton was actually called upon to kick the extra point and he nailed it through the uprights. The Bald Eagles would tack on another touchdown to start the fourth quarter as they built up a 26-7 lead when Lukius White scampered in from four yards out. Walton, however, missed the extra point with 13:11 remaining. Bloomsburg righted the ship and made things interesting down the stretch thanks to long passing plays. On the Huskies’ first drive of the fourth quarter, redshirt junior tight end Aaron Allison took a backwards pass from redshirt sophomore Duffy Gilhool and then launched a pass for a 58-yard completion to freshman Kieron Smethers to set up a first-and-goal from the Lock Haven seven. The drive stalled but Abbott made it a two-possession game when he nailed a 24-yard field goal with 10:07 left, cutting the lead to 26-10. The Allison-to-Smethers play marked the first career passing attempt by Allison and the first career reception for Smethers. After the Huskies’ defense forced a Lock Haven punt, Gilhool connected with freshman Ethan Price on a 72-yard pass play down the left sideline on Bloomsburg’s ensuing possession to again set up a first-and-goal. This time, the Huskies got into the endzone when the Gilhool-to-Price connection hooked up on a five-yard pass with 4:24 left in regulation. It was Price’s first career touchdown. Gilhool then found Allison for the two-point conversion to cut the Lock Haven lead to 26-18 with plenty of time remaining. However, Lock Haven played keep away over the final 4:24 and ran out the clock to hang on for the eight-point victory. Lock Haven outgained Bloomsburg, 439-345, for the contest but ran 15 more plays than the Huskies (74-59). The Bald Eagles held the ball for 33:33, marking the sixth time in nine games this season that Bloomsburg has not won the time of possession battle. The Huskies were limited to 101 yards rushing - one week after rushing for a season-high 283 yards against East Stroudsburg.

Redshirt freshman Michael Allen was the main target as he hauled in six passes for 57 yards. John Ford was a workhorse for Lock Haven all afternoon as he carried the ball 35 times for 144 yards and one touchdown. He also had one catch for 20 yards during the final drive that ran out the clock for the Bald Eagles. Walton, who had 35 yards rushing, was 14-of-26 passing for 242 yards and two touchdowns.

2016 GAME RECAPS Game 10 - NOVEMBER 5, 2016 BLOOMSBURG 22, SHIPPENSBURG 19 BLOOMSBURG, Pa. - Redshirt sophomore Travis Krall blocked a potential game-tying 31yard field goal with 2:05 left in regulation and redshirt senior Andrew Harris broke up a fourth-down pass attempt on Shippensburg’s final bid at a comeback to lift the Bloomsburg University football team to a thrilling 22-19 victory over the visiting Red Raiders at a sundrenched Danny Hale Field at Redman Stadium on Saturday afternoon. With the victory, the Huskies clinched a winning season for the 18th consecutive year as they improved to 6-4 overall and closed out the PSAC Eastern Division standings with a 4-3 mark.

27 yard line, when Harris sacked Yocum for a 12-yard loss to the 39 on a third-and-two. The Red Raiders were forced to punt which led to the Bloomsburg fumble, the blocked field goal by Krall, and the pass breakup by Harris to close out the contest. Elliott Jr. led the Huskies with 60 yards rushing and two scores on 17 carries. He also added four of Bloomsburg’s nine receptions on the afternoon. Gilhool finished the day completing 9-of-19 passes for 95 yards and was picked off twice. But, his big touchdown pass to Price - his only catch of the day - proved to be the game-winner. Redshirt senior Jerrin Toomey added a career-high 12 tackles on Saturday to join Harris and Aigeldinger in double figures in tackles. Gary and Aigeldinger each had three sacks. Allen Holman and Tyler Emge led Shippensburg with nine tackles apiece.

The fireworks in the closing minutes started when the Huskies fumbled at their own 17 yard line with 4:21 left in regulation to give Shippensburg a golden opportunity to potentially take the lead in the closing minutes. But, a holding penalty against the Red Raiders on second down and a sack by redshirt sophomore Chris Gary on third down forced the visitors to attempt the game-tying field goal. Krall, Bloomsburg’s starting offensive right guard who stands six-foot-five, got his right forearm on the field goal attempt from Shippensburg’s Billy Deane with 2:05 left in regulation to thwart the game-tying bid. However, Shippensburg’s defense forced a three-and-out on Bloomsburg’s ensuing possession to give the Red Raiders one more shot to win or force overtime in the closing minute. Starting at its own 37 yard line, Gary was credited with a sack on the drive’s first play which also resulted in an intentional grounding penalty to set up a second-and-16. Two plays later, on fourth-and-three from the Shippensburg 44, quarterback Landon Archangelo’s pass appeared as if it would be complete to Jordan Harro for a first down. However, Harris’ timing was perfect as he drilled Harro, jarring the ball free, and enabling the Huskies to hang on for the three-point win. Bloomsburg’s defense was tremendous the entire game as it allowed Shippensburg 306 total yards of offense, including just 93 through the air. The Huskies sacked Shippensburg quarterbacks Archangelo and Chase Yocum seven times and had two interceptions - both by Harris, who finished the game with a career-high tying 14 total tackles, one sack, one tackle for a loss, and two pass breakups to go along with his career-high two picks. Gary finished the game with three sacks - two on Shippensburg’s final five plays from scrimmage - which give him a PSAC-leading 12.5 this season. It was also a breaking-out party for sophomore Frank Aigeldinger, who finished the game with a career-best 12 total tackles (10 solo), three sacks, and three tackles for a loss. Aigeldinger’s previous high in tackles was five at Lock Haven last week and he had never had a sack in his collegiate career prior to Saturday. As excellent as the defense was, the Huskies struggled to move the ball against Shippensburg which came into the contest ranked 12th in the country in rushing defense (91.2) and 32nd in the country in total defense (328.4). Bloomsburg could muster only 13 first downs and 191 total yards of offense against the Red Raiders - 96 on the ground and 95 through the air. The 95 passing yards were the fewest in a game by the Huskies since accumulating only 71 passing yards in a 20-13 win at California (PA) on September 12, 2015. Deane started the scoring when he drilled a 48-yard field goal to cap a 10-play drive with six minutes to go in the first quarter. But, the Huskies responded with a nine-play, 71-yard drive on their ensuing possession which was culminated by senior Lawrence Elliott Jr.’s threeyard run. Redshirt sophomore Ryan Abbott added the extra point to give the Huskies a 7-3 advantage with 1:25 left in the first quarter. Shippensburg cut the lead to 7-5 with 12:36 left in the second quarter when Nick Drawbaugh tackled Elliott Jr. in the endzone for a safety. Despite a 65-yard punt by senior Will Wagner after the safety, the Red Raiders were able to tack on seven more points to take a 12-7 advantage, with 9:07 left in the first half, when Cole Chiappialle scored from a yard out with Deane adding the extra point. But, Elliott Jr. put the Huskies back in front with an eight-yard touchdown run - his second of the game and 20th of the season - to give the Huskies a 13-12 margin with 2:18 left in the first half. Bloomsburg elected to go for two and Elliott Jr. scampered around the right end and went in untouched for a 15-12 Huskies’ lead at halftime. Yocum gave the Red Raiders the lead back when he called his own number and got into the endzone from one-yard out with 5:26 left in the third quarter. Deane added the extra point for a 19-15 Shippensburg advantage. The score remained that way until the Huskies took advantage of a 16-yard punt by Deane which went out-of-bounds at the Shippensburg 33-yard line with 11:10 left in the fourth quarter. Four plays later, redshirt sophomore Duffy Gilhool connected with freshman Ethan Price on a beautiful post-pattern from 20 yards out into the back left corner of the endzone with 9:05 left in regulation. Abbott added the extra point to make it a 22-19 Huskies’ advantage. The touchdown from Gilhool-to-Price also put the Huskies over 20,000 career points in program history which dates back to the 1892 season. Shippensburg threatened on its ensuing possession but the drive stalled at the Bloomsburg

2016 GAME RECAPS Game 11 - NOVEMBER 12, 2016 #11 IUP 42, BLOOMSBURG 13 INDIANA, Pa. - The Bloomsburg University football team allowed 21 unanswered points in the third quarter and dropped a 42-13 decision at 11th-ranked Indiana University of Pennsylvania on Saturday afternoon at George P. Miller Stadium. With the loss, Bloomsburg’s string of consecutive seasons with at least seven victories, which began with a 7-4 record during the 1999 campaign, ended at 17. The Huskies did, however, extend their streak of consecutive winning seasons to 18 with last Saturday’s 2219 victory over visiting Shippensburg University. Senior running back Lawrence Elliott Jr. capped off a brilliant four-year career by finishing the contest with 18 carries for 167 yards, adding 35 yards in returns, to finish with 202 all-purpose yards. On the first play from scrimmage, his 11-yard run made him the fourth player in program history to record 5,000 all-purpose yards for his career. He joined three of the biggest names in school history to accomplish the feat - Franklyn Quiteh (7,964 from 2010-13), Jamar Brittingham (6,867 from 2004-07), and Irv Sigler (5,264 from 1994-97). With his 202 all-purpose yards on Saturday, Elliott Jr. finished his career with 5,201 all-purpose yards.

final play of scrimmage in the contest. The touchdown extended Bloomsburg’s consecutive games streak of scoring at least one touchdown to 117 straight games. IUP outgained Bloomsburg, 434-401, in the contest with the Crimson Hawks rushing for 354 yards against a battered Huskies’ defense. Bloomsburg managed 264 rushing yards against IUP - just shy of its season-high of 283 it had in a 35-14 win over East Stroudsburg. Elliott Jr. finished with a season-high 167 yards on 18 carries, averaging 9.3 yards per attempt. Redshirt freshman Qmac Quiteh, who played most of the fourth quarter, finished with 61 yards on nine carries. Redshirt senior Joe Parsnik closed out his collegiate career with 32 yards rushing on nine carries. He finished his collegiate career with 1,888 rushing yards. Gilhool was 8-of-18 passing for 89 yards while Palubinsky, who led the Huskies on their touchdown-scoring drive, was 5-for-6 for 48 yards and the touchdown. Hoffman finished with six catches for 55 yards and the score. Defensively, redshirt sophomore Dexter Jordan led the Huskies with nine total tackles while senior Jarell Boyd-Ross added eight. Redshirt senior Andrew Harris finished with six stops to give him 104 on the season - the first Huskies’ player with more than 100 tackles in a season since Justin Shirk had 123 in 2014.

Elliott Jr. entered the contest needing 153 yards against a vaunted IUP defense on Saturday to keep Bloomsburg’s streak of consecutive seasons with a 1,000-yard rusher intact. The senior finished with 167 to give him 1,014 for the season as the Huskies have now had a 1,000-yard rusher in seven straight seasons, 13 of the last 14, and in 15 of the last 17 years. He closed out his career with 2,613 rushing yards - becoming the tenth player in school history to eclipse 2,500 career rushing yards - and finishing tenth on the school’s all-time list, just behind Arrestene Henry who finished with 2,665 from 1998-01. IUP started the scoring when Chris Temple scored his first of three rushing touchdowns on the afternoon - an 11-yard burst up the middle with 6:50 left in the opening quarter. Ryan Stewart added the extra point as the Crimson Hawks took a 7-0 lead. On the 16-play, 71yard scoring drive, Temple carried the ball 11 times for 69 yards. The Huskies responded on their ensuing possession. Bloomsburg got into IUP territory for the first time in the quarter when redshirt sophomore Duffy Gilhool hit freshman wide receiver Ethan Price for a 23-yard gain to the Crimson Hawk 45. On the next play, Elliott Jr. rumbled 39 yards to set up a first-and-goal from the IUP six-yard line. However, the Huskies could not get into the endzone and had to settle for redshirt sophomore Ryan Abbott’s 22yard field goal to cap off an eight-play, 66-yard drive with 3:45 left in the opening stanza. After forcing an IUP punt, the Huskies were back in business on their next possession after a 36-yard scamper by Elliott Jr. to the IUP 44. But, the Crimson Hawk defense, which had picked off 21 passes (third in the country) entering the contest, got an interception from Jay Watkins at the IUP 33 to thwart a Bloomsburg scoring opportunity. The hosts were able to turn the pick into points when Temple found paydirt from 20-yards out, culminating a 10-play, 50-yard drive. Stewart added the extra point as IUP extended its lead to 14-3 with 12:23 left in the first half. Another big run from Elliott Jr., this time a 44-yarder to the IUP 20 had the Huskies threatening again on their next drive. Again, however, the drive stalled and Bloomsburg had to send out Abbott for a 33-yard field goal try that he connected on to cut the Crimson Hawk advantage to 14-6 with 10:22 remaining in the opening half. Redshirt senior linebacker Vaughn Jones picked off the first pass of his collegiate career on IUP’s ensuing possession to give the Huskies excellent field position at the IUP 44. But, a holding penalty and a bad snap resulted in the Huskies having to punt and not turning the opportunity into points. IUP took advantage of the Huskies’ misfortunes on its next drive. Going for it on fourth-and-one from the Bloomsburg 46, Temple not only got the first down, but also put six more points on the board with his 46-yard touchdown run to extend the lead, after Stewart’s extra point, to 21-6 with 5:37 left in the first half. Bloomsburg had a promising drive, that started at its own 18, end with no points as Abbott was wide left on a 36-yard field goal attempt with 1:22 left in the first half and the teams headed to their respective locker rooms with the Crimson Hawks ahead 21-6 at halftime. Big plays killed the Huskies in the third quarter as IUP tacked on three touchdowns to take a 42-6 lead into the fourth quarter. Starting quarterback Mike Pietropola got the ball rolling for the Crimson Hawks when he called his own number and scored on a 58-yard run with 13:56 left to extend the lead to 28-6. Then, after a Huskies’ punt, Pietropola hooked up with Walt Pegues on a 60-yard pitch-and-catch for six more points and, all of a sudden, the lead had ballooned to 35-6 with 11:06 still remaining in the third. IUP missed a 24-yard field goal on its third possession but, after the Huskies couldn’t convert on a third-down play, the Crimson Hawks’ Anthony Davis blocked a punt from senior Will Wagner and returned it 18 yards for a touchdown with 1:08 left in the third to extend the lead to 42-6. Bloomsburg was able to get into the endzone with just seven seconds remaining in regulation when redshirt junior Chris Palubinsky found redshirt senior wide receiver Chad Hoffman from six yards out to cap off a 12-play, 80-yard drive. Abbott added the extra point on the

HARLON HILL WINNERS

108

2017 Huskies Football MEDIA GUIDE


HARLON HILL WINNERS BLOOMSBURG UNIVERSITY’s harlon hill winners Each year, the Harlon Hill Award is presented to the top player in NCAA Division II football as voted upon by Division II Sports Information Directors. Bloomsburg is one of only nine schools in Division II that has had more than one season of garnering the Harlon Hill Award. Of those nine, only six, including Bloomsburg, have had different winners.

FRANKLYN QUITEH - 2013 WINNER

Franklyn Quiteh became the second Bloomsburg University player to earn the Harlon Hill Trophy. A three-time Harlon Hill finalist, Quiteh received 182 voters’ points and held a 36-point margin over second-place finisher Dustin Vaughan of West Texas A&M. Quiteh, from Tobyhanna, Pa., led Division II in rushing yards (2,195), rushing yards per game (182.9), rushing touchdowns (29) and scoring (15.7) in 2013. He guided Bloomsburg to a 10-2 record and to the second round of the Division II Playoffs. He became the first player in Division II history to rush for more than 2,000 yards in a season three times in his career and also broke the Division II record for most games with more than 100 yards rushing with 42. In an October game at East Stroudsburg, he set the all-time Bloomsburg single game rushing record with 304 yards on the ground and later rushed for 234 yards and three scores to send the Huskies to victory over Slippery Rock in the 2013 PSAC Championship Game. Quiteh finished his career as the second leading rusher in Division II history and the top alltime rusher in the PSAC with 7,523 yards on the ground. He previously finished third in the 2012 Hill voting and sixth in 2010. When Quiteh earned the 2013 Harlon Hill Trophy Award, Bloomsburg became just the seventh program in the nation to have multiple Harlon Hill winners.

IRV SIGLER - 1997 WINNER After becoming one of the few running backs in collegiate history to average better than 200 yards per game, Irv Sigler of Bloomsburg University became the 1997 winner of the Harlon Hill Trophy. He finished second in Division II rushing (203.8), fourth in scoring (12.0 ppg), and third in all-purpose yards (213.1). Sigler became the leading rusher in Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) history with 5,105 career rushing yards. He also established the PSAC record for rushing yards in a season with 2,038. He was one of only two running backs in Division II history to average over 200 yards per game in a season. Rushed for over 100 yards in all ten games for the Huskies, including a string of five straight games with 200 yards or more. He also scored five touchdowns in a 68-6 win over Cheyney, becoming the first PSAC player to accomplish that feat twice in a career. During his career, Sigler set or tied 29 national and school records. Sigler rushed for a combined 3,802 yards during his junior and senior seasons, scoring 45 touchdowns in that span. He was the PSAC’s all-time leading career rusher (5,105), and also for a season (2,038). Sigler was named 1996 PSAC Offensive Player of the Year, while being honored on three Division II All-America teams. He helped lead Bloomsburg to a fourth consecutive PSAC Eastern Division title, as Bloomsburg became the first PSAC school to win four consecutive division titles.

HUSKIES IN THE NFL 2017 Huskies Football MEDIA GUIDE

113


HUSKIES IN THE NFL JUSTIN SHIRK

Justin Shirk earned a free agent contract with the Indianapolis Colts in July of 2015 after an All-American season with the Huskies in 2014 that saw him named Super Region One and PSAC East Defensive Player of the Year with 120 tackles and 11 sacks. His 2013 and 2014 seasons put him third and fifth respectively in Huskies season tackles (123, 120). Shirk was recently named the United Bowl Most Valuable Player after leading the Arizona Rattlers to the Indoor Football League championship.

Larry Webster

Bloomsburg’s all-time sacks leader, Webster (right) made a tremendous impact on the gridiron in only two seasons. After a standout career on the basketball court for the Huskies where he became the school’s all-time blocked shots leader, Webster transitioned to the football field. The impact was immediate - he set the single season school sacks record with 13.5 in 2012 and then recorded 12.5 sacks and led the nation in sack yardage (102) in 2013. He was drafted in the fourth round of the 2014 NFL Draft by the Detroit Lions (136th overall), becoming the second-highest Bloomsburg player ever selected behind only Jahri Evans. Webster also is the seventh-highest NFL Draft pick in PSAC history. He is currently a member of the Carolina Panthers.

Matt Feiler

Feiler drew the attention of NFL scouts following an All-American senior season, earning invitations to both the prestigious East-West Shrine Game and the NFL Combine. He was signed as a free agent by the Houston Texans immediately following the 2014 NFL Draft. Feiler spent the 2014 season on the Texans’ practice squad and was signed to a two-year extension following the season. He is now a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Jahri Evans

On April 30, 2006 the New Orleans Saints selected Bloomsburg offensive tackle Jahri Evans (left) in the fourth round (108th overall) in the NFL draft. Evans was a key figure in an offensive line that has ranked among the NFL’s best units since 2006. An immediate starter since being drafted in the fourth round in 2006, Evans went from being a little-known rookie to an established veteran now considered one of the NFL’s top right guards. He is a six-time Pro Bowl selection (2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014) and a six-time All-Pro. In 2011, he was named as one of the 100 Greatest Players in the NFL, ranking 34th. He helped the Saints to a Super Bowl championship in 2009. In 2006, he was recognized as Pro Football Weekly/ PFWAAll-Rookie and Dallas Morning News All-Rookie. He was released by the Saints after the 2015 season and, after a short stint with the Seattle Seahawks, returned to New Orleans for the 2016 season. This past offseason, Evans signed a one-year contract with the Green Bay Packers. Evans was a two-time All-American while at Bloomsburg. In 2005, he helped lead the Huskies to an undefeated regular season and a PSAC East title.

Eric Jonassen

In 1992, tackle Eric Jonassen was selected in the fifth round by the San Diego Chargers. He played all 16 games during the regular season for the Chargers in 1993 and 1994 and was a member of the Chargers’ AFC Championship team during the 1994 season and participated in Super Bowl XXIX. After three years in San Diego, Jonassen played two more seasons for the Arizona Cardinals before retiring after the 1997 season. At Bloomsburg, Jonassen earned a number of All-American accolades at tackle.

Mike Morucci

Running back Mike Morucci was taken in the seventh round of the 1980 draft by the New Orleans Saints; however, his NFL career was cut short by injury. At Bloomsburg, he graduated as the Huskies and the PSAC’s all-time leading rusher. His Bloomsburg records stood until 1997 when they were broken by tailback Irv Sigler.

Bob Tucker

Bob Tucker was not drafted but joined the Giants as a rookie in 1970. He put together a solid 11-year career as a tight end. Tucker had 422 receptions for 5,421 yards and scored 27 touchdowns. In 1971, his 59 receptions ranked second in the league. At Bloomsburg, Tucker was an All-Pennsylvania Conference selection three times. He graduated with nine school receiving records and ranks fourth all-time at BU with 131 receptions.
