Battle for the Golden Horseshoe Cal Poly snapped a three-game “Horseshoe Classic” losing streak with a 28-20 victory over UC Davis in 2012 in Alex G. Spanos Stadium and made it two years in a row with a 34-16 triumph last fall in Aggie Stadium. Cal Poly won three straight from 2006-08 and the Aggies won the first two games of the Battle for the Golden Horseshoe -- 20-13 in 2005 and 36-33 in 2004. The “Battle for the Golden Horseshoe” is all even at five wins apiece. In 2004, the two schools’ student-run spirit clubs, Mustang Maniacs and the Aggie Pack, came together to sponsor a perpetual trophy that resides with the team that wins each year. The horseshoe-shaped trophy signifies the agricultural influence at both universities. Although the trophy was established in 2004, the two teams have met for football games 38 times. UC Davis leads the series 19-18-2. From 2001-05 and in 2007 and 2010, the visiting team won each time. The series began in 1939 with UC Davis posting a 28-0 shutout at Davis. Cal Poly returned the favor in 1940 with a 27-0 victory in San Luis Obispo. The two teams have met every year since 1978. Seventeen of the games in the series have been decided by seven points or less.
4 More than 19,000 students, nationally-renown courses of study and the top-ranked public master’s university in the western United States ... all 11 miles from the Pacific Ocean.
This is Cal Poly ocated in the central California coastal town of San Luis Obispo, Cal Poly comprises one of 23 campuses in the California State University, the nation’s largest fouryear undergraduate university system. Each CSU campus is given considerable freedom to develop its programs and each institution boasts its own qualities and strengths. Cal Poly’s Learn by Doing principle of instruction prepares undergraduates for careers in applied technical and professional fields. From computers to crops, Cal Poly holds that the best preparation for any endeavor is derived through practical application. This ideal has set Cal Poly apart from other schools and been the school’s driving philosophy since its 1901 founding. Courses at Cal Poly emphasize a high proportion of lab work, fieldwork and special assignments, culminating with a senior project. Unique on-campus opportunities – such as an organic farm and a student-run daily newspaper and majors of study ranging from aerospace engineering to wine and viticulture – make hands-on learning a daily reality at Cal Poly. In total, Cal Poly confers bachelor's degrees in 64 separate areas of study. Nine of those degrees are exclusive to the San Luis Obispo campus (see next page). For 21 consecutive years, U.S. News and World Report has ranked Cal Poly as the top public master’s university in the western United States. The publication also ranked Cal Poly’s College of Engineering as the No. 3 program in the nation among public non-doctoral institutions (see below). On-campus activities are headquartered at the renown University Union and Cal Poly’s student-run activities have earned enviable reputations across the nation. Week of Welcome offers first-quarter students a successful introduction to the collegiate experience through a team of trained student leaders and university officials, all of whom provide academic and social resources, encourage awareness and promote relationships with the campus and central coast community.

Athletically, Cal Poly boasts one of the most successful Division I programs for an institution of its size. During the 2013-14 academic year, the athletics department – which sponsors 21 varsity programs – saw the men’s basketball, men’s tennis and baseball programs advance to the NCAA Championships and six teams win Big West championships (baseball, women;s soccer, men’s and women’s cross country, men’s basketball and men’s tennis). Individually, Sullivan Grosz (football), Akaninyene Umoh (football), Mark Mathias (baseball), Matt Imhof (baseball), Casey Bloomquist (baseball) and Sonny Fierro (men’s swimming) each earned All-America honors. Pitcher Matt Imhof was drafted by the Philadelphia Phillies in the second round of the MLB Draft in June 2014. Named Big West athletes of the year were Mackenzie Pridham (men’s soccer), Elise Krieghoff (women’s soccer), Mark Mathias (baseball), Chris Hoo (baseball), Sierra Hyland (softball), Laura Hollander (women’s cross country) and Chris Frias (men’s track and field and men’s cross country). Big West Freshman Players of the Year were Ben Donovan (men’s tennis), Sierra Hyland (softball) and Ashley Winsor (women’s cross country). Sullivan Grosz (football) was named Big Sky Co-Defensive Player of the Year. As testament to Cal Poly’s athletics and academic integrity, 88 Mustangs collected conference all-academic praise during the 2013-14 school year. The Cal Poly Athletics Department also finished second in the Big West Commissioner’s Cup, an award presented to the institution with the best overall results in the conference’s 16 sponsored sports. Long Beach State edged the Mustangs by one point. Internationally, Cal Poly was represented at the 2008 Summer Olympics by former Mustangs Sharon Day (United States, high jump), Jimmy Van Ostrand (Canada, baseball) and Stephanie Brown Trafton, whose gold medal for the United States in the discus competition was the first such feat by a Mustang athlete. Day (heptathlon) and Brown Trafton (discus) also qualified for the 2012 Summer Olympics in London.

BEST IN THE WEST
CAL POLY AN ACADEMIC DYNASTY 21 YEARS IN THE MAKING For the 21st straight year, Cal Poly was rated by U.S. News and World Report as the best public master’s university in the western United States in its 2013 America’s Best Colleges guidebook. Cal Poly placed sixth in the publication’s overall list of the west’s best universities – including both public and private institutions – that provide “a full range of undergraduate and master’s-level programs but few, if any, doctoral programs.” The publication ranks colleges that grant doctoral degrees, such as those in the University of California system, in a separate category. “Being named Best in the West for 21 straight years is a terrific acknowledgment of Cal Poly’s sustained excellence over a long period of time,” said Cal Poly President Jeffrey D. Armstrong. “The credit belongs to our faculty and staff for their unwavering dedication and commitment to our students’ success, and it underscores the power of our Learn by Doing philosophy.”
Within individual areas of study, U.S. News and World Report ranked Cal Poly’s College of Engineering No. 3 among public engineering programs for schools whose highest degree is a bachelor’s or master’s (Cal Poly was bested only by the United States Military Academy and Air Force Academy). A number of College of Engineering programs ranked high in the Best Undergraduate Engineering Programs in their individual specialty categories. The university’s computer, electrical and mechanical engineering programs were each ranked as the top program at a public university in their respective specialty categories. Cal Poly’s civil and environmental engineering program was ranked the secondbest program at a public university.

6 CAL POLY HISTORY
DISTINGUISHED AND NOTABLE ALUMNI
HUMBLE BEGINNINGS, TRANSCENDENT FUTURE
FROM SAN LUIS OBISPO TO SPACE, THE NATION’S ELITE CALL CAL POLY HOME
In front of the Orfalea College of Business iis the O’Neill Green, which hosts, among other activities, a tailgate prior to football games at the adjacent and recently remodeled Alex G. Spanos Stadium. A 1948 graduate of the College of Agriculture, the late Richard J. O’Neill is the founder of Supporters of Mustang Athletics Teams (SUMAT) and was instrumental in helping to stabilize funding for Cal Poly.
n the 1890s, when a proposal for a teacher training school in San Luis Obispo seemed unlikely to succeed, California State Senator Sylvester C. Smith instead suggested a polytechnic institute. Myron Angel, chronicler of San Luis Obispo County history, became an ardent supporter of the idea and articulated a vision to establish a school that would “teach the hand as well as the head.” The plan succeeded and on March 8, 1901, legislation was signed founding the California Polytechnic School, then a vocational high school. During the ensuing three decades, Cal Poly evolved into the modern equivalent of a junior college, but its future became uncertain. In 1933, however, Julian A. McPhee, chief of the California Bureau of Agricultural Education, saved the institution from abolishment by agreeing to become school president. During the next 33 years, McPhee guided Cal Poly’s transformation into a four-year institution and set an educational standard still emulated today. Cal Poly’s first baccalaureate exercises were held in May 1942 and in 1947, the institution was officially renamed California State Polytechnic College. As programs continued to evolve, the institution became California Polytechnic State University in 1972. The Learn by Doing ethos continues to inform the paths Cal Poly’s alumni pursue, and they keep the friendships they start here. They also learn by succeeding. Median starting salary for recent graduates was $50,000 (beating all other CSU and UC campuses) and mid-career salaries for Cal Poly alumni are better than all UC and CSU campuses except Berkeley and UC San Diego -- and better than many private universities. More than half of Cal Poly seniors have a job offer in hand before they graduate -- even in today’s difficult economy.

7 CAL POLY ADMINISTRATION
PRESIDENT JEFFREY D. ARMSTRONG effrey D. Armstrong, former dean of the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources and professor of Animal Science at Michigan State, officially began his duties as president at Cal Poly on Feb. 1, 2011. Armstrong was head of the Department of Animal Sciences at Purdue University from 1997 to 2001. He served in various positions at North Carolina State University from 1986 through 1997. “Cal Poly has an excellent reputation for preparing the knowledge leaders that help to drive California’s economy,” Armstrong said. “I am honored to join such an outstanding university and excited about engaging students, faculty and alumni to build on its strong foundation and create opportunities for the future.” Armstrong, who was raised on a beef cattle, swine and tobacco farm in western Kentucky, attended Murray State where he received a bachelor’s degree in agriculture in 1981. He received both a master’s (1984) and doctorate (1986) in physiology and endocrinology from North Carolina State. The College of Agriculture and Natural Resources at Michigan State has a total budget of more than $290 million for more than 4,500 students. During Armstrong’s tenure, faculty general fund FTE increased 44 percent, overall grant activity increased 146 percent and annual development funds increased by more than 250 percent. More than $200 million (with over $60 million in endowments) was been raised during his tenure. Through the efforts of Armstrong and other members of the administrative team, CANR undergraduate student minority population increased from 8.3 to 11.8 percent and minority faculty increased from 9.9 to 19 percent. In addition, annual revenue from off-campus credit instruction has increased more

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS DON OBERHELMAN CAL POLY DIVISION I HONORS
onald J. Oberhelman was named Cal Poly’s Director of Athletics on March 17, 2011. Oberhelman, 42, came to Cal Poly after serving as the Chief Operating Officer and Senior Associate Athletic Director at San Diego State University. In that capacity, he was responsible for the daily operations of San Diego State’s intercollegiate athletics program, including budget planning, hiring and evaluation of coaches, facilities and event management. He also worked closely with San Diego State’s fundraising team. “Cal Poly has a great tradition of academic excellence and we want to continue to build on that tradition in everything we do. For many people, athletics is the first impression they have of the university. We must make sure these impressions are great ones,” Oberhelman said at the time of his hiring. “We know our primary obligation is to develop our student-athletes. I want us to be leaders in graduation rates as well as in championships. But the receipt of a degree is not enough. It must be in a field of interest to the student-athlete and it must lead to a rewarding career. “We will not compromise and place student-athletes on the perceived shortest path to a degree. Here’s the bottom line for Cal Poly Athletics: We are in the business of developing citizens and leaders. Along the way, we can also win championships. Experiencing what it takes to be a champion is a great education in and of itself.” Cal Poly President Jeffrey Armstrong echoed Oberhelman’s sentiments. “Don’s goal is for all of our student-athletes to leave Cal Poly with a diploma and a championship ring,” Armstrong said. “That’s a great goal for our student-athletes and our fans.” Prior to his tenure at San Diego State, Oberhelman served as the senior associate athletic director at Southern Mississippi (2002-07), the education coordinator for athletics at Texas A&M (1998-2002) and as a compliance assistant at Florida State (1995-1998). He earned his bachelor’s in business administration at Kansas State and his master’s in athletic administration at Florida State.

than 20 percent during each of the last six years. “Dr. Armstrong’s outstanding academic credentials, leadership abilities and strong grounding in agriculture and science will be tremendous assets to the university and the community as it moves forward,” California State University Trustee Roberta Achtenberg, chair of the presidential search committee, said. “His reputation for teaching excellence and commitment to student-centered learning are the right complements to Cal Poly’s learn-bydoing philosophy.” As a faculty member at North Carolina State, Armstrong was engaged in the classroom, advising students, revising general university requirements and starting a Freshman College. He received numerous teaching awards at North Carolina State, including the designation as Alumni Distinguished Professor for Undergraduate Teaching. Armstrong’s laboratory-based research focused on nutrition and reproduction in bovine and porcine females and more recent work has been in social responsibility in the food chain. He has been a key participant in more than $9 million in grants and cooperative agreements. He has written or contributed to more than 45 scientific journal articles. Armstrong also serves as chair of the United Egg Producers Animal Welfare Advisory Committee. He advises McDonald’s Corporation in animal welfare, as well as broader issues related to corporate social responsibility. He served as chair of the Board of Agriculture Assembly Farm Bill Committee and co-chair of CREATE-21 (Creating, Research, Extension and Teaching Excellence for the 21st century), and contributed to significant changes in the most recent Congressional Farm Bill. Armstrong also served on the USDA Agricultural Research, Extension, Education and Economics Advisory Committee and recently completed service on the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago Seventh District Advisory Council. Armstrong and his wife, Sharon, have two children. Jessica is a medical student at Michigan State and Zack is a finance major, also at Michigan State.

ENHANCED BY SOME OF THE NATION’S MOST RAVENOUS CROWDS AND PRISTINE WEATHER, CAL POLY’S ATHLETICS FACILITIES PROVIDE THE MUSTANGS WITH AN UNPARALLELED HOME ADVANTAGE
Completed in 2006, Alex G. Spanos Stadium (above) hosts Cal Poly’s football and men’s and women’s soccer programs. The Mustang football team christened the complex on Nov. 18, 2006 with a 55-0 victory versus Savannah State, while a program-record 11,075 spectators packed Spanos Stadium Sept. 15, 2007 for Cal Poly’s season home-opening win against Weber State. On Oct. 17, 2008, another sellout crowd of 11,075 supporters – then the thirdlargest regular season crowd figure in NCAA men’s soccer history – flooded Spanos Stadium for Cal Poly’s nationally-televised showdown against central coast rival UC Santa Barbara. During the 2009 season, the men’s soccer program ranked third among NCAA Division I programs by averaging 2,213 fans per home date. Cal Poly’s volleyball, wrestling and basketball programs call the 3,032-seat Mott Athletics Center (right) home. The athletics department ensured its commitment to Cal Poly’s programs by installing a new $700,000 floor during the summer of 2007. During recent years, Mott Gym has hosted the Pac-12 Conference Wrestling Championships and, in front of a sold-out audience, the first and seconds rounds of the 2006 NCAA Volleyball Tournament (also right). The men’s basketball program produced its most recent sellout during a 64-50 loss to Big West Conference regular-season champion UC Irvine on Feb. 1, 2014. Additionally, the Mustang women’s basketball program drew a program-record 1,737 fans for a Feb. 14, 2009 game against UC Santa Barbara. Remodeled at a cost of more than $3 million, the Olympic-sized Anderson Aquatic Center (left) was completed in August 2009 and plays host to both Cal Poly’s men’s and women’s swimming and diving programs. Situated adjacent to the Mott Athletics Center, the pool measures 12,348 square feet. Eight 50-yard lanes highlight the complex, which also provides for a total of eighteen 25-yard cross course lanes. The complex also features a 15-by-30-foot all-shallow therapy pool. Anderson Aquatic Center held its first official event on Oct. 3, 2009, when the Mustang women’s swimming program welcomed thendefending national champion California to San Luis Obispo.
ADDITIONAL CAL POLY ATHLETICS FACILITY HIGHLIGHTS • With a picturesque mountain backdrop ringing the landscape, Ozzie Smith Plaza was completed in 2001 and plays host to the Bob Janssen Field softball and Baggett Stadium baseball venues. The Mustang baseball team regularly draws four-figure attendances -- 15 crowds in excess of 2,000 fans in 2014 -- and hosts nationally ranked competition. The Mustang softball program, which clinched its first Big West title in 2007 at Janssen Field, drew an overflow, program-record 1,532 fans for a 2007 doubleheader against perennial national powerhouse UCLA. Both venues feature spacious clubhouses, as well as batting cages and bullpen areas for both teams. • Cal Poly finished resurfacing an on-campus all-weather track in 2001 and completed improvements to the high jump and pole vault areas. The track and field program hosts its annual Cal Poly Invitational each March.

• During the 2008-09 academic year, Cal Poly finished construction on the FieldTurf Upper Field, located above Ozzie Smith Plaza. The area is used by Cal Poly’s athletics programs and intramural leagues.
• Cal Poly opened Mustang Courts in 2001 and installed an electronic scoreboard in time for the 2014 season. The sevencourt complex is located behind Mott Gym, features permanent chairback seating and is used by both the men’s and women’s tennis programs.

MUSTANGS EXCEL IN THE CLASSROOM or more than 100 years, Cal Poly’s student-athletes have been dedicated to excellence in both the athletic and academic arenas. During the 2013-14 scholastic year alone, 88 Mustangs were named to all-conference academic teams. Since Cal Poly transitioned to the Division I level in 1994, the school has enjoyed 789 total all-conference academic selections – an average of nearly 40 per year. Taking pride in each student’s ability to excel both athletically and intellectually, Cal Poly and the athletics department offer guidance and support to each student-athlete during his or her tenure. To support these motives, the athletics department initiated the Academic Resource Center.
F
Opened in 2001, the center provides yearround academic support, tutoring, workshops and academic advising. The center has also developed study hall programs with bi-quarterly progress checks, weekly academic appointments and a first-year seminar class for incoming student-athletes. In deference to the student-athlete’s need for class schedule flexibility, Cal Poly also offers in-season priority registration for two of the three quarters during which competition occurs. Of the 64 major courses offered at Cal Poly, Mustang student-athletes were enrolled in 54 separate areas, as of the Fall 2009 term.
ATHLETIC EXCELLENCE Featuring 21 varsity programs, the Cal Poly Athletics Department is in its 21st year of NCAA Division I competition since completing reclassification in 1994. With the exception of football (Big Sky Conference), wrestling and men’s swimming (Pac-12 Conference) and the women’s swimming and indoor track and field programs (Mountain Pacific Sports Federation), Cal Poly is also in its 19th year as a member of the Big West Conference. Among Big West institutions, only UC Davis (22 programs) boasts more athletic disciplines than Cal Poly. Prior to transitioning to the Division I level, Cal Poly ranked as the most successful institution in the history of NCAA Division II athletics with 35 national team titles. Cal Poly has continued its winning tradition at the top flight with teams and individuals routinely earning conference championships and NCAA Tournament berths. During the 2013-14 academic year, the athletics department -- which added sand volleyball in 2014 --saw the men’s basketball, men’s tennis and baseball programs advance to the NCAA Championships. Individually, Sullivan Grosz (football), Akaninyene Umoh (football), Mark Mathias (baseball), Matt Imhof (baseball), Casey Bloomquist (baseball) and Sonny Fierro (men’s swimming) each earned All-America honors. Pitcher Matt Imhof was drafted by the Philadelphia Phillies in the second round of the MLB Draft in June 2014. Named Big West athletes of the year were Mackenzie Pridham (men’s soccer), Elise Krieghoff (women’s soccer), Mark Mathias (baseball), Chris Hoo (baseball), Sierra Hyland (softball), Laura Hollander (women’s cross country) and Chris Frias (men’s track and field and men’s cross country). Big West Freshman Players of the Year were Ben Donovan (men’s tennis), Sierra Hyland (softball) and Ashley Winsor (women’s cross country). Sullivan Grosz (football) was named Big Sky Co-Defensive Player of the Year. As testament to Cal Poly’s athletics and academic integrity, 88 Mustangs collected conference all-academic praise during the 2013-14 school year. The Cal Poly Athletics Department also finished second in the Big West Commissioner’s Cup, an award presented to the institution with the best overall results in the conference’s 16 sponsored sports. Long Beach State edged the Mustangs by one point. Cal Poly athletes have consistently excelled outside the bounds of the collegiate arena. Cal Poly was represented at the 2008 Summer Olympics by former Mustangs Sharon Day (United States, high jump), Jimmy Van Ostrand (Canada, baseball) and Stephanie Brown Trafton, whose gold medal for the United States in the discus competition was the first such feat by a Mustang athlete. Day (heptathlon) and Brown Trafton (discus) also qualified for the 2012 Summer Olympics in London. Other prominent post-Cal Poly examples include All-American wide receiver Ramses Barden (2005-08), who was a third-round selection by the New York Giants in 2009 and is currently with the Buffalo Bills. Former linebacker Chris Gocong (2002-05) – one of Cal Poly’s three Buck Buchanan Award winners as the Football Championship Subdivision’s top defensive player – made 35 starts in three active seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles before signing with the Cleveland Browns in 2010. Former men’s soccer midfielder Anton Peterlin is the only Big West player to have appeared in an English Football League match. Two former Mustangs -- Junior Burgos (Toronto FC) and Patrick McLain (Chivas USA) have played on Major League Soccer clubs. Mackenzie Pridham plays for Minnesota United FC of the North American Soccer League. As of August 2014, the Cal Poly baseball program produced six Major League players in the last five years while 23 other Mustangs were active professionally.

13 Cal Poly Weight Room Sports a New Look
The Mott Athletics Center weight room now features state-of-the-art equipment, thanks to $150,000 in donations from over 20 donors, many of them parents of Cal Poly football players. A view of the old facility is shown in upper right corner.

uring the summer of 2013, the Mott Athletics Center weight room for Cal Poly Athletics underwent a $150,000 renovation, thanks in large part to philanthropic support from parents of football players in addition to football alumni and area supporters. The 2,500-square-foot facility, under the direction of Cal Poly strength and conditioning coach Chris Holder, services over 550 student-athletes and had not been improved since it was originally built 16 years ago. "This gift is one of the most important projects our Athletics Department can receive," said Holder. "The weight room is the only place in our program that sees every student-athlete on a regular basis. We impact the life of every Mustang athlete and, now, we will be doing so in a state-ofthe-art facility." The 2013 renovation included new equipment, new platforms, new lighting, a new sound system, repair of the concrete floor, fresh paint and Cal Poly Mustang Branding throughout. "The project was originally proposed by parents of two football players who wanted to see improvements for today's student athletes," said Ashley Offermann, associate
athletics director for development. "Football head coach Tim Walsh was a driving force and approved the funding priority that would benefit all of Cal Poly's athletic programs." In total, there were over 20 donors who gave in excess of $150,000 to complete the project, Offermann added. In the spring of 2013, Walsh and director of athletics Don Oberhelman collaborated on the idea and plans to remodel the facility. "This project is being funded on the backs of our football parents," said Oberhelman. "Coach Walsh jumped on board with this project in the beginning, putting football-specific concerns on hold, knowing what a huge impact this will have for every one of our sports. "Offermann then worked very hard to put a plan in place to reach out to the football parents and a few former football players, and they have responded," Oberhelman added. "When we looked at our needs in football and looked at the needs of the department, Don and myself decided that what is best for both the department and football is to help remodel the weight room," said Walsh. The additions that will be made will make the facility attractive enough for us with the
recruiting process. "Most importantly, it will provide a better atmosphere for Chris to do the things he wants to do with the athletes," Walsh added. "I'd like to thank all the football parents and alumni involved with the funding of the project." Holder feels the project will help fulfill his master plan and provide the tools necessary for carrying off his ideas. "The football parents who so generously donated the funds to make this a reality have given my staff and myself the opportunity to really push the limits of our knowledge and creativity," said Holder. "This project gives their sons, as well as all other student-athletes, male and female, at Cal Poly the best opportunity to develop a physical edge. "Plain and simple, I need the athletes to walk into our space and WANT to train in our facility," Holder added. We have a room, now, that will be a source of pride for our athletes, for our coaches and staff and a place that will be a valuable tool in the recruiting process of future Mustangs. "If you have the right energy in the room, if the gear is updated and purposeful, every Mustang athlete has the opportunity to reach their physical potential," Holder said.
14 Cal Poly Weight Room Sports a New Look
Another view of the renovated Mott Athletics Center weight room, which includes repair of the floor and walls, paint, new lighting, a sound system and branding. Mustang student-athletes began using the new facility in September 2013. "Like the other colleges here on campus, we have nicknamed the room "The Cal Poly School of Strength". During construction, the weight room's old equipment was moved outdoors behind the Mott Athletics Center, used by the athletes in preparation for the fall sports season. Preparing the weight room for the remodeling project involved the masonry and carpentry skills of Holder, his assistants (Cameron Van Wye, Sara Bergheger and Andy Sverchek) and director of facilities and event operations Jesse Latino. Facility Services provided assistance with repairing the concrete below the rubber flooring. Repairing and reinforcing the walls to prevent further damage was completed prior to painting the facility and installing updated lighting, a sound system and fresh branding. "In keeping with the theme of service to
our student-athletes, improving the weight room is the fastest and most impactful way to better their Cal Poly experience," said Oberhelman. "I want to give a big thank you to those of you who have helped to make this happen." The Mustang coaching staff is just as enthusiastic about the project. "One of the coolest aspects about Cal Poly athletics is how the student-athletes from every sport support and encourage each other," said women's basketball head coach Faith Mimnaugh. "Perhaps the greatest example of this is when you witness a strength-training session. Athletes from different sports come together to train to improve their strength, quickness and power. "All the athletes will benefit from the weight room renovation," Mimnaugh added. "The contributors who made it possible will
know that they are providing tomorrow's leaders with a facility that matches the excellence that these students display on the field, on the court and in the classroom. Great things can be accomplished through teamwork and selflessness." Added women's volleyball head coach Sam Crosson, "The renovation of the weight room facility at Cal Poly will have a significant impact on both current and future student-athletes, not only for our program but for all of the student athletes on campus. The facility is the foundation for improving athletic performance and its modernization will have an immediate effect on the future success of our program."

During the summer of 2013, student-athletes went outside to use the old weight room equipment behind Mott Athletics Center.
15 Big Sky Conference Cal Poly, along with UC Davis, North Dakota and Southern Utah, started competition in the expanded Big Sky Conference in the fall of 2012. Cal Poly and the Aggies accepted invitations from the Big Sky Conference in September 2010 to become affiliate members in the sport of football only. North Dakota and Southern Utah joined the Big Sky as full-fledged members in December 2010. Cal Poly and UC Davis maintain membership in the Big West Conference for the majority of their other sports. “The geography of the Big Sky Conference makes perfect sense for Cal Poly,” said then-Cal Poly interim president Dr. Robert Glidden during a 2010 press conference. “It gives us a consistently competitive schedule and a great opportunity to grow long-term, stable rivalries with wellrespected teams.” Added then-Mustang director of athletics Alison Cone, “We’re very excited anout joining the Big Sky Conference. Our goal all along has been to find stability for our football program, and the Big Sky Conference gives us exactly what we need to enhance our program. The Big Sky Conference is one of the best FCS conferences in the country and offers great competition with teams that are natural rivals in our region. “We’re able to continue our great rivalry with UC Davis and renew rivalries with other West region schools,” Cone added. “The scheduling improvements will give our student-athletes an opportunity to vie for a conference championship which provides an automatic berth into the NCAA playoffs. It’s also a victory for our fans, who will get a chance to watch some of the best FCS schools in the country year in and year out.” Doug Fullerton, commissioner of the Big Sky Conference, said, “The Big Sky is already recognized as one of the top Football Championship Subdivision conferences in the nation. The addition of Cal Poly and UC Davis to our lineup will strengthen us even more. “This is a great fit for both institutions and the Big Sky Conference,” Fullerton added. “We are bringing in two strong western FCS programs. They will benefit from us in having access to an automatic playoff bid and a full slate of conference games.” Cal Poly head football coach Tim Walsh was head coach at Big Sky Conference member Portland State for 14 seasons Doug Fullerton (1993-2006), the final 11 years in the Big Sky Conference after Big Sky Commissioner the Vikings elevated their athletics program from Division II to Division I in 1996, before moving on to the U.S. Military Academy (Army) as offensive coordinator for the 2007 and 2008 campaigns. Walsh was named head coach at Cal Poly on Jan. 9, 2009. “This is great news for our athdent-athletes,” Walsh said. “We are extremely excited to be a part of arguably the best NCAA FCS conference in the country. It is a conference that we are familiar with, the competition is top-flight and that will only make us better. “The Big Sky is regionalized in the western part of the country,” Walsh added. “All of that leads to stability for our football program.” In their first two FCS seasons, the Mustangs were members of the American West Conference (1994 and 1995) before becoming an independent for eight years. Cal Poly and five other schools, including UC Davis, formed the Great West Conference in 2004. The Mustangs won Great West titles in 2004, 2005, 2008 and 2011. The Big Sky Conference is entering its 52nd year of athletic competition this fall and, prior to the recent addition of four teams, was a nine-team league for football since 2006 when Northern Colorado joined the conference. Eastern Washington captured the 2010 FCS championship while Montana played for the national championship in football each of the two previous years. Big Sky teams have won the Division I national title six times -- Boise State (1980), Idaho State (1981), Montana State (1984), Montana (1995 and 2001) and Eastern Washington (2010). Big Sky teams have made 13 total appearances in the Football Championship Subdivision national title game. The Big Sky has been represented in the playoffs by at least two teams in 28 of the past 30 years, including three teams on five occasions -- 1988, 1990, 1994, 2003, 2009 and 2012 with Cal Poly, Montana State and Eastern Washington -- and four last fall. Since 1993, a total of 15 Big Sky teams have made it to at least the semifinals of the playoffs. The Big Sky has advanced two teams to the quarterfinals four of the last nine seasons. Montana has appeared in seven national championship games since 1995. Since 2000, eight of the 13 Big Sky teams have made at least one playoff appearance. The Big Sky Conference has produced seven winners of the Walter Payton Award, which goes to the most outstanding football player at the FCS level, along with six Buck Buchanan Award winners (top defensive player in the FCS) and a pair of Eddie Robinson Award winners (FCS coach of the year). Defensive end Brad Daly of Montana State claimed the 2013 Buchanan award while Cooper Kupp of Eastern Washington earned the Jerry Rice Award (Freshman of the Year). Since moving to the Football Championship Subdivision (formerly Division I-AA) in 1994, Cal Poly is 39-41 against teams from the Big Sky Conference, including a 28-14 mark in the last 42 games from 2004-13. Cal Poly was 5-1 against Big Sky members in 2005, best in school history prior to becoming a Big Sky member in 2012, en route to its first NCAA FCS playoff berth. The Mustangs also qualified for the NCAA FCS playoffs in 2008 and 2012.

21 2014 Season Preview: Numerous Holes to Fill on Defense
C
al Poly led the Big Sky Conference and Football Championship Subdivision in rushing offense a year ago. Quarterbacks Chris Brown and Dano Graves combined for 1,052 yards on the ground as the Mustangs finished the year 6-6 and tied for fourth place in the Big Sky at 5-3. There is no reason to believe that Brown, Graves and the Mustangs, who in 2012 broke the conference record for yards rushing in a season, cannot accomplish the same feats in 2014. Three starters along the offensive front return, poised to open big holes for Brown, Graves and a solid group of slotbacks. Stephen Sippel started all 12 games at center a year ago. Right tackle Weston Walker started 10 games, as did Matt Fisher at left guard. Fisher will move to left tackle this fall. "We have three guys back as starters and all will be with us in 2015 as well," said sixth-year Mustang head coach Tim Walsh. "I feel strongly that, when all is set and done, we could have 11 or 12 guys who will play on the offensive line this fall." The offense has as many as eight returning players who started at least four games in 2013 while the defense has to replace seven departed starters, including Big Sky Conference Co-Defensive Player of the Year Sullivan Grosz at tackle. The 2013 Mustangs finished No. 1 in the FCS in rushing offense, averaging 309.1 yards per game, and also were No. 2 in sacks allowed (6), No. 9 in kickoff returns (24.3), No. 19 in scoring defense (21.6) and No. 25 in rushing defense (128.4). The defensive numbers include a five-game stretch in which Cal Poly allowed just 12 points and 272 total yards per contest under thirdyear defensive coordinator Josh Brown. Primary holes to fill are on the offensive line (Lefi Letuligasenoa and Giovanni Sani), fullback (Akaninyene Umoh), slotback (Kristaan Ivory and Cole Stanford), three of the four defensive line positions (Grosz, Andrew Alcaraz and Nick Leyden), Sam linebacker (Johnny Millard), both cornerbacks (Vante Smith-Johnson and Bijon Samoodi) and right safety (Alex Hubbard). Hubbard also was a return specialist and holder on special teams. Kicker Bobby Zalud and punter Paul Hubbard also are gone. Cal Poly players reported to Fall Camp on July 31 with the first practice scheduled for August 1 as the team prepared for its 2014 season opener August 28 at New Mexico State. The home opener against Portland State for a nonconference game in Alex G. Spanos Stadium is set for Sept. 20. A look at each position:

Shipman and redshirt freshman Joey Kuperman at center. With Letuligasenoa moving into the coaching ranks this fall, the job at right guard likely will fall to sophomore Derek Sabo, with redshirt freshman Ross Berry and junior Tom Hickel. Walker returns at right tackle, backed up by junior Calvin Sandeen, a transfer from Santa Rosa Junior College. "Guys like Enriquez, Sabo and Shipman got a tremendous amount of opportunities in the spring," said Walsh. "They will be the key to the depth of the offensive line and the strength of our team. "Fisher, Walker and Sippel Quarterback obviously will be the catalyst of our offensive line," Walsh Chris Brown (6-2, 200, Jr.) added. "Sabo, Shipman and 66-117-4, 836 Yards, 11 TDs in 2013 Enriquez showed great signs of Dano Graves (5-9, 185, Jr.) improvement in the spring and 45-75-5, 416 Yards, 3 TD in 2013 Sandeen could jump in and start. Some of the other younger guys have got to provide quality as backups. As young as we are, I think the line could be our strength." Quarterback Dano Graves, who started five games, and Chris Brown, who started four contests, led the competition for the starting nod at quarterback last spring and the competition for the starting nod will continue at the start of Fall Camp. "It's going to be the Dano and Chris show," said Walsh. "A decision as to who will start the first game will be made in camp. Both played well enough in spring to deserve to play." Graves completed 45 of 75 passes for 416 yards and three touch-

Brown connected on 66 of 117 passes for 836 yards and 11 scores and was the Mustangs' No. 2 rusher with 685 yards and eight touchdowns, including a school quarterback-record 195 yards and three trips into the end zone against UC Davis.

Graves' highlight came in a 47-0 victory over Weber State at home as he rushed for 116 yards and completed 13 of 16 passes for 169 yards and three scores. "I think what Chris did last year in producing big plays with his legs is a definite plus," said Walsh, "but you look at the overall numbers and they are pretty similar, such as yards per carry (both averaged 5.4 yards per rush). The most efficient guy will get the most plays and both will be a huge part of our success this year.
Chris's strengths are his athleticism and making big plays," Walsh added. "Dano did a lot of that in spring as well, plus his quickness and toughness allow him to do things that are a positive. Dano is a more accurate thrower, but Chris improved a lot in that area in the spring. "Both manage the team very well. They are different in how they manage the team, but both have leadership quality," Walsh said. "They are working hard to improve on their efficiency and closing the gap in areas which we want to improve. Both have the ability to be the guy." Senior Vince Moraga, who started Cal Poly's first two games last fall, suffered a season-ending knee injury in the Fresno State contest and will continue his rehabilitation this fall. Sophomore Andrew Barna, a graduate of Bellarmine Prep in San Jose, took snaps last spring. He was a redshirt at Humboldt State in 2012, played at DeAnza College in Cupertino a year ago and will back up Brown and Graves this fall. Slotback Ivory rushed for 728 yards as a sophomore, leading Cal Poly to a Big Sky title, and added 1,113 yards to his career total last fall, averaging 6.5 yards per carry. He also was Cal Polyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top receiver with 33 catches for 200
yards and one score. With his departure, along with Stanford (25 catches) and Umoh (451 rushing yards, 12 catches), it likely will be slotback by committee this fall. "We had a lot of guys who had good opportunities last year," said Walsh, "but we lose Stanford, who not only had great numbers but played physically. Same with Umoh and Ivory. Nevertheless, we will have a lot of depth at slotback.
Slotbacks Kori Garcia (5-10, 195, So.) 55 Carries, 217 Yards, 1 TD in 2013 Rocky Meszaros (5-8, 185, Jr.) 8 Carries, 76 Yards, 1 TD in 2012
Kori Garcia, who rushed for 217 yards and one score as a redshirt freshman, is expected to have his number called for most of the rushing plays from the W-Back position, along with junior Rocky Meszaros and Chris Nicholls, who played mostly at wide receiver last year. On the other side, senior Kenny Mitchell is vying for the nod at S-Back and will be backed up by Garcia and Nicholls. "Garcia is a very versatile and solid player," said Walsh. He runs well, catches well and is lot faster that some think he is. We're also looking for a lot from Meszaros. As a redshirt junior now, he needs to show up at
23 2014 Season Preview: Numerous Holes to Fill on Defense and has got his size to the point where he should be durable. We need a big season out of him. "Michaels had a better spring and could break into the lineup," Walsh added. "We expect him to do some good things for us." A newcomer to the position is Jared Mohamed, the fourth Mohamed brother to play football at Cal Poly. He practiced at linebacker last fall and has moved to the other side of the ball. True freshman Joe Protheroe signed a National Letter of Intent a year ago but delayed his arrival at Cal Poly until this fall. "We had high expectations for him a year ago and he will grow this year," said Walsh.
Chris Nicholls averaged 19.9 yards per kickoff return, caught 15 passes and rushed for 210 yards in 2013. some point in time. Mitchell is a good perimeter blocker and catches the ball well.” Alex Suchesk (Mission Viejo High School) and Lance Mudd (Poway High School) "may see some time with their speed" this fall, Walsh noted. "One of those two will play as true freshmen, maybe both. Alex is shorter and stockier while Mudd is a little taller. The determining factor will be how quickly they learn the offense. The winner of that battle will travel to New Mexico State." Also in the mix is former Paso Robles High School standout Elias Stokes, who missed the entire 2013 season following labrum surgery in his hip. “Garcia and Nicholls both will play strong and weak side,” said Walsh. “Stokes hopefully can show us something as well. He has to be more of a Kenny Mitchell type of guy.” Fullback Brandon Howe, who rushed for 271 yards and three touchdowns and caught a pair of passes last fall, returns for his senior season. He likely will get the majority of the starts at

fullback, but will be challenged by Brent Michaels, also a senior who played in nine games a year ago. "Howe has really become a complete player," said Walsh. "His running ability gives us another guy who could be a 700- or 800-yard rusher. He has improved his blocking skills
Senior Willie Tucker, who briefly left the program to explore his options at the Football Bowl Subdivision level, has returned to Cal Poly. He injured a knee in the fifth game last fall and likely will redshirt this fall as he continues his rehabilitation. Tight End Cal Poly had four tight ends on the roster last fall, led by Austin Albison with a pair of catches, and all four return, but "tight ends
Wide Receiver The wide receiver corps will be thin with four players who combined for 28 receptions in 2013. "We're really thin right now," said Walsh. "We have four returning players, but none

with a lot of experience or catches. We obviously need more productivity as a group." The veterans include versatile player Chris Nicholls (15 catches in 2013), who will spend more time at slotback this fall, along with Jordan Hines (7), Roland Jackson Jr. (2) and Carson McMurtrey (4). "We need more touchdowns from the group," Walsh said. "They need to take the next big step to make us more effective on offense. The talent and experience are there, but at some point in time they have to make the plays. “Roland has been very impressive in Fall Camp and we hope he continues to show us how capable he is. Carson has been bother by a hamstring injury and hopefully he will be healthy for the season.” Redshirt freshman Kyle Lewis has switched from slotback to wide receiver “and has shown great strides,” Walsh noted. In addition, tight end Sam Holguin could be used as a wide receiver. “He has been steady in practice and could be our fifth wide receiver,” Walsh said.
Willie Tucker caught 18 passes before suffering knee injury in fifth game of 2013 season.
24 2014 Season Preview: Numerous Holes to Fill on Defense won't play as big a role as last year," said Walsh. "Austin was more involved in the offense last year as the season progressed and he will continue to do that this year," Walsh said. Other candidates include Brendan Quinn, Sam Holguin and redshirt Reagan Enger. Defensive Line Tackle Sullivan Grosz (71 tackles, 8.5 sacks, 11 hurries) and ends Nick Leyden (30 tackles, 4.0 sacks) and Andrew Alcaraz (29 tackles) have exhausted their eligibility, leaving some gaping holes to fill on the defensive front, which was No. 25 in the FCS defending the rush a year ago.
"Grosz was an extraordinary player and Leyden at defensive end too," said Walsh. "We have some work to be done, but having Lawrence, a three-year starter, back really helps. Paige-Allen had a really good spring and Hauser gives us three guys who will be very helpful. Patterson hopefully will be able to step in." True freshmen Samo Savusa and Fino Elisaia "have been strong in the weight room and could step in," said Walsh. "The one further along technique-wise will get some playing time this fall." The ends will be Jake Irwin, who traded snaps with Leyden last fall, on the left side and sophomore Josh Letuligasenoa on the right side. Irwin started nine games and made 24 stops, including 2.5 for lost yardage, and hurried the quarterback twice last fall while Letuligasenoa played in 10 games and collected five tackles, including a sack. Irwin, who missed spring ball with an injury, will be backed up by sophomores Kelly Shepard. Behind Letuligasenoa at the start of Fall Camp will be transfer Logan Mayes from

Washington State and senior Chris Judge when he is not playing at linebacker. "That's going to be a really good group," Walsh said of his ends. "Having Jake down in the spring gave several young guys a lot of opportunities and a lot of reps to make them better players. I feel pretty comfortable we will be solid there." Linebacker Nick Dzubnar, who has been Cal Poly's leading tackler each of the past two seasons (107 in 2012 and 112 in 2013), returns for his final year at Mike linebacker, backed up by junior Tu'uta Inoke, sophomore Joseph Gigantino and redshirt freshman Jack Ferguson. "Because he's a tough blue-collar guy, Dzubnar to me doesn't get the credit he deserves," Walsh said of the third-team AllSenior end Jake Irwin is expected to be one of the anchors of Cal Polyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Big Sky Conference selection.

Backing up Ontko will be junior Burton De Koning, a transfer from Nevada and a graduate of Folsom High School. Challenging Judge are Inoke, De Koning and Gigantino. Senior Nick Moyer is another candidate at Sam while redshirt freshmen Zach Carter and R.J. Mazolewski will back up at Will.

"Judge and Ontko have some speed and physicality on the field," noted Walsh. "Inoke made great progress in spring and De Koning will be a really good player. A lot of guys could get some time at linebacker. Moyer has improved tremendously. Expectations are growing there. Gigantino will play a little everywhere, but he still is not healthy. He's got a month left." "The linebackers should be the strength of our team this fall," Walsh added. "With Judge, Dzubnar, Inoke, Ontko and others, they have the opportunity to be a very good group of guys." Secondary Starters Vante Smith-Johnson, Alex Hubbard and Bijon Samoodi, who combined for 172 tackles and five interceptions a year ago, all used up their eligibility last fall, leaving numerous holes in the defensive secondary. "We lost a lot of players back there," said Walsh. "Hubbard was a leader, played with enthusiasm and was our team captain. He was a great player and will be tough to replace, along with the others." Topping the list of returnees are senior Jordan Williams (38 tackles), who moves from left safety to right safety, along with senior Dave Douglas (five tackles in 10 games) at left safety and junior Karlton Dennis (26 tackles in 12 games) at right cornerback. "Williams and Douglas have the experience and knowledge at safety, but they better be ready because there are other guys who
will push them," said Walsh. "Williams is a really good player and Douglas hopefully will be healthy for the first time in his career. They give us two really good safeties." The backups at right cornerback are junior Fernando Cabico, junior Frankie Griggs and redshirt freshman Matt McNab.

Cal Poly Football History -- Emmy Award Winner John Madden Legendary NFL broadcaster and former Cal Poly football player John Madden called his final NFL game in 2008 after three seasons with NBC on its Sunday Night Football telecast. He worked for four seasons with Al Michaels as expert analyst for “Monday Night Football” on ABC. Madden, who is synonymous with NFL football for millions of fans nationwide, brought his ability to explain the game’s finer points along with his unique sense of humor to Monday Night Football in 2002 after 21 seasons as a game analyst for CBS and Fox. The National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences has honored Madden with an unprecedent-
ed 16 Outstanding Sports Personality/Analyst Emmy Awards, the most recent in recognition for his work during the 2008 season. In all, Madden has been nominated for a record 20 Emmy Awards. In addition, the American Sportscasters Association named him Sports Personality of the Year in 1985 and 1992 and, in 1982, Madden became the first NFL analyst to receive the Touchdown Club of America’s prestigious Golden Mike Award. Prior to joining the broadcasting ranks, Madden had an outstanding career as head coach of the NFL’s Oakland Raiders. He guided the Raiders to an overall record of 103-32-7, leading the team to seven AFC Western Division titles and a victory over the Minnesota Vikings in Super Bowl XI. Madden’s winning percentage (.750) is the best of any head coach in NFL history. A linebacker coach when he began his NFL coaching career with Oakland in 1967, Madden became the head coach in 1969 at age 33, the youngest head coach in the American Football League. Madden retired in 1979 and started his football broad-

casting career at CBS in 1980. Before coaching in Oakland, Madden was the defensive coordinator at San Diego State from 1964-1966 where the Aztecs were ranked first among small colleges with a 26-4 record. From 19601963 Madden coached at Hancock College in Santa Maria. Madden started on both the offensive and defensive lines as a player for Cal Poly in 1957 and 1958 and was voted to the all-conference team. He was also a catcher on the school’s baseball team. He earned a Bachelor of Science degree in 1959 and a Master of Arts degree in 1961, both from Cal Poly. The Philadelphia Eagles selected him in the 21st round of the 1958 NFL draft, but a knee injury in his rookie season prematurely ended his career. Madden is also the author of several books. His latest effort is a cookbook titled “John Madden’s Ultimate Tailgating” released in 1998. His first four books — “Hey Wait a Minute, I wrote a Book,” “One Knee Equals Two Feet (and Everything Else You Wanted To Know About Football),” “One Size Doesn’t Fit All,” and “All Madden,” each written with New York Times sports columnist Dave Anderson — all reached the New York Times best-seller list. Born April 10, 1936 in Austin, Minnesota, Madden was raised in Daly City. He now resides in Pleasanton with his wife, Virginia. The couple, who celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary in 2009, has two sons and five grandchildren.

Cal Poly Head Football Coach Tim Walsh
im Walsh, offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at the United States Military Academy for two seasons, was named Cal Poly’s 16th head football coach on Jan. 9, 2009, and, after guiding the Mustangs to a 4-7 mark in his first campaign, turned it around with three consecutive winning seasons (7-4, 6-5, 9-3), a Great West Conference title in 2011 and, in his fourth year at the helm of the Mustangs, a share of the Big Sky Conference crown and an NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision playoff berth in 2012. Cal Poly finished 6-6 in 2013 and the Mustangs are 12-4 in their first two seasons in the Big Sky. “Tim Walsh relishes his role as an educator at Cal Poly," said Mustang director of athletics Don Oberhelman. "He embraces our high academic standards and has built an excellent football program with these standards as the cornerstone. "Tim fully understands the academic demands of Cal Poly students and our Learn by Doing philosophy," Oberhelman added. "I can't imagine a better marriage between a football coach and a university than what we have with Tim Walsh at Cal Poly." Walsh replaced Rich Ellerson, the Mustangs’ head football coach for eight seasons. Ellerson was named head coach at Army on Dec. 26, 2008. “We had several outstanding applicants from which to choose, but I am thrilled we were able to hire a person with such outstanding credentials to direct this program,” then-director of athletics Alison Cone said of Walsh in 2009. “He is a highcharacter, high-quality individual who brings great passion and enthusiasm to our campus.” "You couldn’t ask for a better coach than Tim Walsh,” said Cal Poly President Jeffrey D. Armstrong. “Besides his understanding of football and his outstanding credentials, he knows how to lead student athletes to live the Mustang Way -- with pride, honor, integrity and excellence both on and off the field.” Walsh has compiled a 149-107 record in 23 seasons as a college head coach, including four years at Sonoma State (27-14 from 1989-92), 14 more seasons at Portland State (90-68 from 19932006) and five at Cal Poly (32-25 from 2009-13). He guided Sonoma State to the Northern California Athletic Conference title in 1991 (ending UC Davis’ streak of 20 consecutive conference titles), a pair of NCAA Division II playoff berths while at Sonoma State and four more postseason berths while at Portland State. “I have a tremendous working knowledge of Cal Poly, its history and current status,” Walsh said at the time of his hiring. “The combination of a tremendous academic university, a tremendous area to recruit and live, and a football program that’s winning all added up to a great opportunity for me. “My goals are to continue to recruit student-athletes whose goals are to be the best they can be, both in the class and on the field, and become quality young men,” Walsh added. “If we do that, winning won’t be a problem. This is an opportunity to build a great program and develop a great relationship between the campus and the community at large.” Ted Tollner, former Mustang quarterback who has held numerous coaching positions at the col-

lege and professional levels, praised the hiring of Walsh. “He did an excellent job at Portland State and is extremely well respected in the profession,” said Tollner. “Cal Poly had some great candidates for the position and I think he’s an excellent choice. He will keep the program moving forward and continue the success it has had in recent years. “People who have worked for him have great respect for his total abilities from a recruiting standpoint, his communication with players, his sound philosophy and his winning record,” Tollner added. “His track record speaks for itself.” Added Bobby Beathard, also a former Mustang who has held numerous positions in the NFL, including scout, personnel director and general manager, "Tim Walsh is a terrific choice. He will be a tireless recruiter, he knows what athletes are and what kind of athletes will fit into the program. "I am excited about him. it's a great choice," Beathard added. "When you find a guy that is really good for you, you grab him and I am glad Cal Poly hired him." A charismatic speaker and motivator, Walsh guided Sonoma State to three winning seasons in four years at the helm of the Seawolves and 10 more above-.500 campaigns in his 14-year term at Portland State. With the Vikings, Walsh coached 14 All-Americans and 11 Academic AllAmericans. Teri Mariani, who was director of athletics at Portland State when Walsh accepted the duties of offensive coordinator at Army, said at the time of his departure that “Tim showed great loyalty to our program and led us through a transition to Division I that a lot of coaches wouldn’t have wanted to do. He has had proven success both on the football field and off, and he’s always been such a team player within our department. “Two words that describe him in my eyes are loyalty and class,” Mariani added. “In his 14 years (at Portland State), he has never done one thing that could change that opinion of him." Portland State joined the Big Sky Conference in

Offense Moves Ball Well to Beat Defense 30-26 in Cal Poly Spring Football Game SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. – The Cal Poly offense was held out of the end zone but moved the ball well with 25 first downs in the 90-minute Spring Game on Saturday in Alex G. Spanos Stadium. The offense beat the defense 30-26 using a modified scoring system which rewarded the offense for first downs and long plays. The defense earned points for turnovers, holding the offense scoreless on drives and also for three-and-outs. Sophomore slotback Kori Garcia rushed for 66 yards on 11 carries and junior quarterback Chris Brown added 61 yards on just four trips as the offense amassed 279 yards on the ground. Four quarterbacks combined to complete 14 of 23 passes for 118 yards. "The offense was really good moving the football," said sixth-year Mustang head coach Tim Walsh. "Yes, we couldn't get it in the end zone, but a lot of it had to do with personnel issues, so we were fairly conservative offensively. "On the other hand, we also played great defense
and didn't allow a score into the end zone," Walsh added, "so that's two positives we can take from the game.” The two-man quarterback battle will continue in August when the Mustangs open Fall Camp to get ready for the 2014 season opener Aug. 28 at New Mexico State. Brown completed eight of 13 passes for 52 yards while Dano Graves, also a junior, connected on all of his five pass attempts for 54 yards before tearing some cartilage in his ribs late in the first half. The other injury was to sophomore defensive lineman Jason Patterson's right knee. Top receiver was senior slotback Kenny Mitchell with four catches for 45 yards. Garcia had three receptions for 11 yards and junior Jordan Hines caught a pair of passes for 29 yards. The 30 points scored by the offense included 25 first downs (one point each), one play of 25 or more yards (two points) and a 24-yard field goal by James Foug (three points). The long play was a 30-yard run
by Brown. The Mustang defense forced two turnovers (six points each), held the offense to a trio of three-andouts (three points each) and also earned five points for holding the offense scoreless on five drives. The pair of turnovers were a fumble recovery and interception, both by senior defensive back Dylan Mohamed. The theft came on the final play of the scrimmage and was returned 15 yards. The fumble was forced by junior defensive back Frankie Griggs. Redshirt freshman linebacker R.J. Mazolewski notched 11 tackles while junior defensive back Chris Fletcher recorded seven tackles to lead the Mustang defense. Junior linebacker Burton De Koning, a transfer from Nevada, and redshirt freshman linebacker Jack Ferguson of San Luis Obispo both earned five tackles. The offense drove the ball 67, 43, 81 and 45 yards on its first four possessions, settling for the lone field goal, and also marched 61 yards on one drive in the second half.

21st Season in Football Championship Subdivision Last fall Cal Poly finished its 95th season of football since 1915 and the 20th season of playing at the Football Championship Subdivision (formerly Division I-AA) level. The Mustangs played their 100th game as an FCS member at UTEP on Sept. 6, 2003, earned their 100th win Oct. 9, 2010, at Old Dominion and played their 200th FCS game Nov. 19, 2011, at South Alabama. The Mustangs, 124-100 as an FCS school, moved to Division I-
AA from Division II in 1994 and were members of the now-defunct American West Conference (Southern Utah, Sacramento State, Cal State Northridge), before becoming an independent in 1996. After eight years as an FCS Independent, the Mustangs became a charter member of the Great West Football Conference in 2004. After eight seasons in the Great West, Cal Poly moved to the Big Sky Conference in 2012.

2014 Big Sky Conference Summer Football Kickoff The 2014 Big Sky Conference Summer Football Kickoff was held July 13-15 in Park City, Utah. The 13 head football coaches and a player from each of the 13 schools in the conference were interviewed by media and participated in meetings and numerous outdoor activities, including a round of golf at the Soldier Hollow Golf Course in Midway, Utah. At left, Cal Poly linebacker Nick Dzubnar poses at the top of the ski jumps at Utah Olympic Park just north of Park City. At right, Dzubnar jumped into a bobsled used in the 2002 Winter Olympic Games at Utah Olympic Park, where ski jumping, bobsled, luge and skeleton events were held in 2002.

The Home Team Cal Poly’s football alumni association has arrived! We are The Home Team! Our Mission: To build an army of Cal Poly Mustang Football alumni, parents, fans, businesses and all who desire to show their appreciation for what they received; a football scholarship, college admission and a Cal Poly degree. This army of donors will dedicate themselves to foster a “give back” philosophy that will ensure future Mustangs the same opportunity and experience year after year. Collectively, the HomeTeam will effectively raise and gift funds exclusively for the benefit of the Cal Poly Football Program while keeping annual donations at affordable levels ($150 per season) so all can participate. Our Steering Committee: By working hand in hand with the athletic department to accomplish this incredible dream of becoming a Division I football program, a small body of local
alumni is contacting and appointing one or more captains from each team over the last 50 years of football to serve on the steering committee. The steering committee is a collective group of alumni who will be directly responsible for contacting all seniors from their respective teams to report back to the administration with updated contacted information and annual membership commitments. Over 300 football alumni joined in the very first year and our goal is to reach 1,500 members by Fall 2014. Annual Membership: Cal Poly Athletic Advancement will sponsor two alumni functions (Fall/Spring) during each academic year.

Mel Kaufman Award Mel Kaufman, a linebacker on the Mustangs’ NCAA Division II national championship team in 1980 and an eight-year veteran of the Washington Redskins of the National Football League, passed away Feb. 7, 2009, in his Santa Margarita home. He was 50. Kaufman, inducted into the Cal Poly Athletics Hall of Fame in 1993, played in three Super Bowls with the Redskins. He also was a scout for the Redskins in Super Bowl XXVI after the 1991 season. Kaufman was hired as linebackers coach at Cal Poly in the spring of 2008 and helped guide the Mustangs to an 8-3 record, a Great West Conference title and their second NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision playoff berth. “It’s a tragedy. He was a good man and a compassionate man,” said former Cal Poly head coach Rich Ellerson. “He was just a good guy, a passionate guy, a Mustang.” Defensive back LeCharls McDaniel was a teammate of Kaufman on the Mustangs’ 1980 national championship

Though the first Cal Poly football team to have a head coach hired by the university played its first season in 1915, there was football on campus as early as 1905. Deuel Hall is in the background. Photos are from the Polytechnic Journal.
2013 season
84 2013 Season in Review: Mustangs ‘Underachieved’ Defensive tackle Sullivan Grosz, who often drew two blockers, earned eight All-American honors and was Big Sky Conference co-Defensive Player of the Year in 2013. He finished his senior season with 71 tackles, including 8.5 sacks and 14 tackles for lost yardage.
For head coach Tim Walsh and the Cal Poly football team, the best word to describe the 2013 season might be “underachieving.” “Going into the season, our expectations were higher than 6-6,” said the fifth-year Mustang mentor, “but considering how we lost a couple games along the way (Montana and Northern Arizona), I know we were as competitive as maybe everyone in the country, not just conference. In that perspective, 5-3 in our second year in the Big Sky is a positive and something we can build on and learn from the entire 2013 season.” Cal Poly’s 26-yard field goal attempt for a 10-point lead with 2:17 left at Montana was blocked and the Grizzlies drove 88 yards in 15 plays to tie the game and send it into overtime. Montana scored on its second play of the extra period, then intercepted a Mustang pass to clinch the 21-14 win. Northern Arizona took the lead for good on a 96-yard kickoff return moments after Cal Poly had kicked a field goal to snap a 10-10 tie on the first play of the fourth quarter and the Lumberjacks held on for the 1713 victory. The Mustangs also let a10-7 halftime lead slip away in a 24-10 loss to

Yale. “Those two conference games were frustrating, the Yale game was disappointing and we didn't play our best game against Eastern Washington (a 35-22 Eagle win),” said Walsh. “Other than that, you couldn't ask for more from our players as far as responding to the adversity they faced during the year. “We got back to work after the Northern Arizona loss and put ourselves in position to make Eastern Washington a meaningful game,” Walsh added. “Finishing 5-3 and tied for fourth place in the Big Sky and going 12-4 in our first two seasons in the conference are positives we can take away from this season.” Though Cal Poly did not secure its fourth NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision playoff berth in 20 Division I seasons, the Mustangs finished No. 1 in the FCS in rushing offense, averaging 308.8 yards per game, and also were No. 2 in sacks allowed (6), No. 9 in kickoff returns (24.3), No. 19 in scoring defense (21.6) and No. 25 in rushing defense (128.4). The defensive numbers include a five-game stretch in which Cal Poly allowed just 12 points and 272 total yards per contest under second-year defensive coordinator Josh Brown. Walsh and Brown, who had 10 returning starters on defense this season, will have to fill two spots on the defensive front vacated by 2013 Big Sky Co-Defensive Player of the Year Sullivan Grosz (No. 5 all-time at Cal Poly in career sacks with 22) and senior end Andrew Alcaraz (teamleading nine pass breakups) along with three positions in the secondary as cornerbacks Bijon Samoodi (55 tackles) and Vante Smith-Johnson (43 tackles) plus first-team all-conference safety Alex Hubbard (74 tackles) all have exhausted their eligibility. Outside linebacker Johnny Millard leaves with his 300 career tackles (tied for No. 6 all-time at Cal Poly) as well. “The defensive line is going to be an area where we might try to look for a community college player for some quick help, but that pool really shrinks with Cal Poly’s high academic standards,” said Walsh. “The rest of the defense is sound. We need to work on depth. We’re pretty good with what we have, but we must fill some areas with depth.” Chris Lawrence returns at nose tackle, Jake Irwin and redshirt Chris Judge will anchor the ends, Cameron Ontko and Nick Dzubnar are the top returning linebackers and Jordan Williams, Karlton Dennis and Dave Douglas will anchor the secondary. Dzubnar led all Cal Poly defenders for the second straight year with 112 tackles and is No. 15 on the career

After a scoreless first quarter, Walsh added. “Sean McDonald (a redshirt in 2013) will help us and Cal Poly scored three touchdowns in the second period for a 21-0 halftime lead and coasted to its ninth win in 11 meetings with the Bears. The Mustangs, 3-3 at home and 3-3 on the road, were ranked as high as No. 10 before losing to Yale and falling out of the top 25 for the rest of the year. The Mustangs rushed for over 400 yards in three of their 12 games (Portland State, UC Davis, Sacramento State) and held five opponents (Weber State, Montana, Northern Arizona, Sacramento State and Northern Colorado) to 100 or fewer yards on the ground. Special teams play hurt the Mustangs at times during the season. Three Cal Poly field goals and a pair of Mustang punts were blocked by the opposition, two Mustang punts and one kickoff were returned for touchdowns and two punts by the opposition hit Cal Poly players and were recovered by their foes. Two fake field goal attempts were turned into first downs or touchdowns by the opposition as well. Among the milestones achieved by Mustang players last fall, Hubbard’s 31.9 kickoff return average is No. 2 all-time at Cal Poly while Bobby Zalud’s 148 total points by kicking is No. 4 and his 88 career PAT Linebacker Johnny Millard corraled 108 tackles, giving kicks made is No. 5.

Cal Poly Scores Well in 2012-13 Academic Progress Rates Led by men's basketball and men's swimming and diving, 14 of Cal Poly's 20 intercollegiate athletics teams improved their multi-year rates during the 2012-13 academic year, according to Academic Progress Rate figures released by the NCAA in May. Men's basketball achieved a four-year multirate score of 959 for the four academic years from 2009-10 through 2012-13, a jump of 34 points, following its score of 963 for the 2012-13 school year. Men's swimming and diving jumped 39 points to a 964 multi-year rate. The team posted a perfect 1,000 score for the 2012-13 school year. In order to compete in the 2014-15 postseason, teams must achieve a 930 multi-year APR or a 940 average over the most recent two years. The multi-year rate of 930 predicts to a Graduation Success Rate of approximately 50 percent. No Cal Poly teams face any penalty from the NCAA for the 2014-15 academic year as the low-
est multi-year rate for any of Cal Poly's 20 teams is 945. Women's sand volleyball is not included in the APR figures released Wednesday because the sport is not officially recognized by the NCAA. Other Mustang teams posting significant increases in their multi-year rate were men's cross country from 941 to 967, men's outdoor track and field from 966 to 986, women's volleyball from 930 to 945, softball from 976 to 989, men's soccer from 959 to 971, women's cross country from 983 to 994, women's swimming from 989 to 1,000 and men's golf from 990 to 1,000. The Mustang men's golf, men's tennis, women's swimming and women's soccer teams all posted scores in the top 10 percent of their sport based on their most recent multi-year Academic Progress Rates and earned Public Recognition Awards from the NCAA last week for exceptional academic achievement. Wrestling, women's soccer, women's indoor track and field and women's outdoor track and
field all showed improvement in their multi-year rates while football remained steady with a 962 multi-year rate. Men's tennis also compiled the same score of 1,000 as a year ago. Teams with perfect scores of 1,000 during the 2012-13 academic year were men's golf, men's swimming, men's tennis, softball, women's soccer, women's swimming and women's volleyball. The four teams who posted multi-year rates below their totals of a year ago all have multi-year rates well above the 930 threshold. They are baseball (974), women's basketball (975), women's golf (967) and women's tennis (960). The nationwide four-year Division I APR is 976, a two-point improvement from last year. The average four-year rate rose two points in baseball (967) and football (951), five points in men’s basketball (957) and one point in women’s basketball (973). In 2014-15, 36 teams will be ineligible for the postseason due to their low APR, compared with 13 teams last year.

SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. -- For the second straight year, Cal Poly opened its football season against the University of San Diego and pulled away in the second half for a victory. Coach Tim Walsh's 11th-ranked Mustangs, who turned a 20-14 thirdquarter lead into a 41-14 win in 2012, outscored the Toreros 21-6 in the second half to turn a 17-10 halftime lead into a 38-16 triumph. Junior slotback Kristaan Ivory scored on runs of 81, 2 and 61 yards en route to a career-high 185 yards -– his second 100-yard game as a Mustang -- while junior wide receiver Willie Tucker caught a careerhigh seven passes for 113 yards as Cal Poly improved its series record against San Diego to 3-0. In his first college start, Mustang junior quarterback Vince Moraga completed 15 of 21 passes for 226 yards, the most yards by a Cal Poly quarterback in a game since Tony Smith passed for 231 yards against St. Francis (Pa.) on Oct. 30, 2010. Cal Poly accumulated 533 total yards, 307 on the ground, while San Diego gained 394 yards in total offense, 257 through the air. Despite the loss, San Diego held a 19-17 advantage in first downs and possessed the ball 15 more minutes than the Mustangs. Xavier Ramos led the Mustangs in tackles with 13 and Nick Dzubnar added 11. Safety Matt Miller garnered 11 tackles for San Diego. Ivory gained his career-high 185 yards on just 14 carries for Cal Poly. Umoh added 67 yards on six trips while Moraga netted 38 yards on nine carries. In addition to Tucker's seven catches, Chris Nicholls had four and Stanford three. Tim Walsh is now 4-1 in season openers.
FRESNO, Calif. -- Senior wide receiver Isaiah Burse returned two punts for touchdowns and also caught a scoring pass as Fresno State defeated No. 10 Cal Poly 41-25 in just the second meeting between the Central California rivals since the mid-1980s. Burse returned a Paul Hundley punt 61 yards late in the first quarter for his first touchdown. It was the first punt return for a touchdown by an opponent in Tim Walsh's five years as head coach at Cal Poly. In the second quarter, Burse caught a 15-yard touchdown pass from senior quarterback Derek Carr and returned another Hundley punt 58 yards for his third touchdown of the game and a 34-0 Bulldog lead at the break. Carr completed 22 of 31 passes for 205 yards and three touchdowns, one week after connecting on 52 of 73 passes for 456 yards and five scores in an overtime win over Rutgers. After a lethargic first half offensively, Cal Poly erupted for 372 yards and 25 points after the intermission. Quarterback Chris Brown, who replaced starter Vince Moraga (knee injury), hit Willie Tucker with a seven-yard touchdown pass, trimming Fresno State's lead to 41-10. Brown scored on a pair of short runs to make it a two-possession game. The Mustangs finished with a 416-370 advantage in total yards – 172 on the ground and 244 through the air. Cal Poly ran off 54 plays in the second half after being held to just 22 plays before the break.
FT. COLLINS, Colo. – Colorado State amassed 353 yards and 27 points in the first half and held on for a 34-17 victory over No. 14 Cal Poly in a nonconference game. The Rams produced three touchdowns and a pair of field goals for a 27-10 advantage at the break. Cal Poly answered in the third quarter with a 23yard scoring pass from Chris Brown to Willie Tucker and drove to the Rams' 12-yard line early in the fourth period before a 32-yard Bobby Zalud field goal attempt was blocked by Shaquil Barrett, who also blocked a Zalud attempt from 47 yards in the second quarter. Colorado State sealed Cal Poly's fate with a 68yard drive after the second blocked field goal, scoring on a six-yard pass from Garrett Grayson to Kivon Cartwright with 4:03 to play in the game. Grayson completed 21 of 30 passes for 297 yards and two touchdowns. Brown connected on 11 of 20 passes for 164 yards and the score to Tucker. In his first collegiate start, the sophomore quarterback also rushed for 61 yards on 14 carries. Tucker was the top Mustang receiver with three catches for 69 yards. Chris Nicholls and Kristaan Ivory both had three catches as well. Cal Poly's only scores of the first half came on a 46-yard field goal by Zalud midway through the first quarter and a 34-yard run by Umoh early in the second quarter which cut Colorado State's lead to 13-10. But Kapri Binns ran one yard for a score and Rashard Higgins caught a 36-yard pass from Grayson as the Rams pulled away in the final nine minutes of the first half.

PORTLAND, Oregon – Sophomore quarterback Chris Brown rushed for 129 yards and one touchdown and passed for two more scores as No. 18 Cal Poly rallied from a 21-7 halftime deficit to beat Portland State in the Big Sky Conference opener for both teams. Junior slotback Kristaan Ivory earned his third 100-yard game as a Mustang, rushing for 184 yards on 32 carries. Portland State averaged mind-boggling statistics of 612 total yards and 43 points in four non-conference games, but was held to 42 yards and no points in a momentum-switching third quarter in which the Mustangs scored twice to tie the game at 21-21. Cal Poly outscored the host Vikings 17-13 in the final period to clinch the win and even the series against Portland State at 10-10. Mustang head coach Tim Walsh, who coached at Portland State for 14 seasons, is now 5-0 in the Mustangs-Vikings series – 20 as Mustang head coach and 3-0 with the Vikings. Portland State compiled 487 total yards and scored 38 points, but was held largely in check in the second half. Cal Poly has been outscored 92-34 in the first half this season but has outscored the opposition 8433 after the break. Cal Poly ran off a season-high 97 plays and amassed 518 total yards, including 431 on the ground, while Portland State garnered 487 total yards, 302 through the air. The Mustangs compiled a 31-22 advantage in first downs and a 13-minute bulge in time of possession.
SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. – Senior quarterback Henry Furman passed for 199 yards and two touchdowns while junior tailback Tyler Varga rushed for 114 yards as Yale rallied from a 10-7 halftime deficit to upset No. 18 Cal Poly in the first-ever matchup of Big Sky vs. Ivy League football teams. Senior placekicker Bobby Zalud kicked a 53-yard field goal as the first half ended, giving Cal Poly its 10-7 lead at the break. Yale, however, held the Mustangs to just 37 yards on 18 plays in total offense, one first down and zero points in the second half, the first time Cal Poly has been held scoreless in the second half since the final game of the 2010 season, a 22-21 loss to UC Davis. Cal Poly sophomore quarterback Chris Brown had career highs of 19 completions and 26 attempts, passing for 104 yards, but he was intercepted twice, both times by Cole Champion. He also was sacked twice. The Mustangs, who had turned the ball over just twice in its first four games this season, committed four turnovers against Yale – losing two fumbles. A third-quarter Cal Poly touchdown on a 67-yard pass from Brown to Cam Akins was wiped out by an illegal formation penalty. Mustang junior slotback Kristaan Ivory rushed for 63 yards on 11 carries and caught eight passes for 34 yards. Junior wide receiver Willie Tucker made three receptions before suffering an injury in the second quarter. He did not return. Senior linebacker Johnny Millard and junior linebacker Cameron Ontko each recorded 13 tackles for Cal Poly. Junior linebacker Nick Dzubnar added 12 stops.

The Mustang defense held the visiting Wildcats to just 173 total yards -- lowest in Tim Walsh’s five seasons as Cal Poly head coach -- in posting its first shutout in seven years. Graves, who averaged 6.8 yards per carry, rushed 17 times and completed 13 of 16 passes for 169 yards. His scoring passes were to Kristaan Ivory for six yards, Cole Stanford for 14 yards and Akaninyene Umoh for 38 yards. Ivory earned his third 100-yard game of the season and fourth of his career, rushing for exactly 100 yards on 18 trips. He scored twice on the ground covering three and five yards in addition to his touchdown reception. Brandon Howe ran one yard for a third-quarter touchdown and fullback Matt Rulon capped Cal Poly's scoring with a two-yard run with five minutes to play. Weber State drove into Cal Poly territory just twice in the game, marching to the 36-yard line before a first-quarter punt and to the Mustang 21 as time expired. Cal Poly compiled advantages of 29-10 in first downs, 580-173 in total yards and 31:23 to 28:37 in time of possession. Weber State converted just four of 16 third-down plays and punted 10 times.

MISSOULA, Mont. – Jordan Johnson threw a pair of touchdown passes, one with 12 seconds left to tie the game and the other on the second play of overtime, to lead Montana over Cal Poly. Montana drove 88 yards in the final two minutes of regulation to tie the game after a Cal Poly field goal attempt of 26 yards by Bobby Zalud was blocked. Johnson completed 10 of 14 passes on the game-tying drive and hit Clay Pierson with a twoyard pass for the touchdown on fourth-and-goal. Cal Poly elected to go on defense in overtime and, on the second play, Montana scored on a 23-yard pass from Johnson to Ellis Henderson. Cal Poly netted zero yards on its first two plays of overtime before Dano Graves was intercepted at the goalline on third down by Brock Coyle, ending the game. Cal Poly dominated the first three quarters, holding Montana to eight first downs and 146 total yards. Johnson had completed just seven of 16 passes for 85 yards in the first three quarters and the Montana running game netted just 61 yards. But the Grizzlies moved the ball well when it counted in the final period, marching 88 yards for the tying score to set up the overtime. Mustang junior slotback Kristaan Ivory rushed for 121 yards on 22 carries, his fourth 100-yard game of the season, while Graves added 91 yards on 14 trips. Graves completed 13 of 18 passes for 95 yards and Ivory was his favorite target with six catches for 36 yards. Cal Poly compiled a 403-315 advantage in total offense, 23-17 in first downs and had the ball for 13 more minutes than Montana. Both Cal Poly scores were recorded by senior fullback Akaninyene Umoh in the first half covering six and four yards.
SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. – Marcus Alford's 96yard kickoff return for a touchdown early in the fourth quarter lifted No. 16/19 Northern Arizona over Cal Poly in a Big Sky Conference game. Cal Poly had taken a 13-10 lead on a 22-yard field goal by Bobby Zalud on the first play of the final period before Alford gave the visiting Lumberjacks the lead for good with his kickoff return. Cal Poly got the ball back four times, but was forced to punt twice, turned the ball over on downs at the Northern Arizona 35 as quarterback Dano Graves was stopped for a two-yard loss by Ryan Reardon, and the Mustangs were intercepted by Austin Hasquet with 2:04 to play. The Lumberjacks secured one first down and ran out the clock to improve to 6-2 on the year and 4-1 in Big Sky games, alone in third place and a half-game behind Eastern Washington and Montana State, both 4-0 after victories Saturday. Despite the loss, Cal Poly compiled advantages of 19-16 in first downs, 352 to 277 in total offense and two minutes in time of possession. In three of the Mustangs' five losses this season, Cal Poly had more yards, first downs and possession time than its opponent. Northern Arizona running back Zach Bauman, bidding to be the ninth player in Football Championship Subdivision history to rush for 1,000 or more yards in four consecutive seasons, rushed for 91 yards on 24 carries Saturday and is 25 yards shy of the 1,000-yard mark with at least three games remaining in his senior season. Dano Graves was Cal Poly’s top rusher with 86 yards on 18 carries. Nicholls added 73 yards on nine trips, scoring the lone Mustang touchdown of the game on a 33-yard reverse. Graves completed 11 of 22 passes for 115 yards, with Cole Stanford his favorite target, catching four passes for 66 yards.
DAVIS, Calif. – Sophomore quarterback Chris Brown rushed for 195 yards and three scores as Cal Poly snapped a two-game losing streak by beating UC Davis in The Battle for the Golden Horseshoe. Brown, who completed just one pass, scored on runs of 29, 5 and 5 yards while Chris Nicholls and Kori Garcia both ran a yard for touchdowns as Coach Tim Walsh's Mustangs won in Aggie Stadium for the first time since 2007, the facility’s inaugural season. Brown, who missed the last three games with a hip injury, carried the ball 22 times, averaging 8.9 yards per trip, as Cal Poly amassed 414 yards on the ground. Nicholls added 67 yards on 10 carries and Garcia 43 yards on 11 trips for the Mustangs. Brown's 195 yards are the most by a Mustang quarterback in program history and No. 10 on Cal Poly's Division I list and 22nd overall for rushing yardage by any player in a single game. Cal Poly forced three UC Davis turnovers -- interceptions by Bijon Samoodi and Alex Hubbard plus a fumble recovery by Samoodi. The two teams battled to a 13-13 draw in the first half but Cal Poly outscored UC Davis 21-3 in the second half to pull away. Brown ran 72 yards on a third-and-11 play to set up Garcia's short run for a touchdown midway through the third quarter. After a pair of UC Davis field goals, Cal Poly turned two Aggie turnovers into five-yard scoring runs by Brown to clinch the win. Cal Poly compiled advantages of 23-18 in first downs and 429 to 336 in total offense but trailed UC Davis by four minutes in time of possession. The Mustangs converted nine of 14 third-down plays.

SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. – Sophomore quarterback Chris Brown threw four touchdown passes while senior fullback Akaninyene Umoh and junior slotback Kristaan Ivory both rushed for over 100 yards as Cal Poly defeated Sacramento State. Umoh rushed for 129 yards on 17 carries, one of them a 69-yard touchdown romp, and Ivory produced his fifth 100-yard game of the season with 118 yards on 11 trips as the Mustangs completed their sweep of California's FCS schools. Cal Poly, which beat San Diego 38-16 in August and UC Davis 34-16, never trailed the Hornets, scoring twice on Brown touchdown passes in the first quarter to Cole Stanford and Austin Albison. After Sacramento State's only score of the game -- a 15-yard pass from Garrett Safron to DeAndre Carter -- Cal Poly scored the final 28 points of the game and held Sacramento State to 62 total yards in the second half. Stanford caught another touchdown pass, six yards, from Brown five minutes prior to halftime and the Mustangs added three scores in the second half. For the second straight game and third time this season, Cal Poly amassed over 400 yards on the ground, finishing with 424 yards, the most given up by Sacramento State in its football history. Brown completed six of 10 passes for 66 yards as Cal Poly produced 490 yards in total offense. Safron completed 24 of 43 passes for 204 yards and one touchdown. Safron also was the Hornets' top rusher with 25 yards on 10 carries. With the win, Cal Poly now leads the all-time series with Sacramento State, 17-16.
SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. – Sophomore quarterback Vernon Adams passed for 224 yards and a pair of touchdowns before leaving the game early in the third quarter with a shoulder stinger as No. 3 Eastern Washington defeated Cal Poly. Anthony Vitto replaced the injured Adams and connected on eight of 12 passes for 127 yards and another Eagle touchdown as Eastern Washington, the 2010 FCS national champion, improved to 9-2 with its seventh straight win and clinched at least a share of its seventh Big Sky title. Trailing 35-3, Cal Poly rallied for three touchdowns in the fourth quarter on runs by Brandon Howe and Chris Brown and a 25-yard scoring pass from Brown to Cole Stanford. Junior slotback Kristaan Ivory became the 16th Mustang to surpass 1,000 yards rushing in a season when he ran eight yards on first down with 11 minutes to go in the game. He finished with 88 yards on 14 carries to lift his season total to 1,028 yards. Sophomore Dano Graves started the game at quarterback for Cal Poly and completed eight of 16 passes for 37 yards while also contributing 75 yards on 16 rushes. The Air Force transfer, however, was intercepted three times. Brown, also a sophomore, replaced Graves as the signal caller for Cal Poly and led the Mustangs on their three fourth-quarter scoring drives. He completed four of seven passes for 87 yards and ran five times for 63 additional yards. Cal Poly, which had given up an average of just 12 points and 272 yards in its last five games, surrendered 35 points and 486 yards.
GREELEY, Colo. – Senior fullback Akaninyene Umoh scored three times and senior safety Alex Hubbard notched Cal Poly's first touchdown by kickoff return in 11 years as the Mustangs wrapped up a 6-6 season with a victory over Northern Colorado. Sophomore quarterback Chris Brown (right) rushed for 101 yards and completed 10 of 16 passes for 129 yards, accounting for three touchdowns, as Tim Walsh completed his fifth season as head coach of the Mustangs with a .500 record and a 5-3 Big Sky mark for a fourth-place tie with Montana State, Southern Utah and UC Davis. After a scoreless first quarter, Cal Poly scored three touchdowns in the second period for a 21-0 halftime lead. The Mustangs were held to just one first down and 36 yards in the first quarter before exploding for 195 total yards, 12 first downs and 21 points in the second period. Each team scored a touchdown in the third period as Cal Poly maintained its 21-point cushion at 28-7. In the fourth quarter, Umoh ran two yards for a Mustang touchdown on a drive ignited by Hubbard's fourth career interception. Hubbard's 94-yard kickoff return up the right sideline for a touchdown was Cal Poly’s first since Darrell Jones returned a kickoff 98 yards against Southern Utah on Oct. 12, 2002. Cal Poly accumulated 466 yards in total offense for the game, 307 on the ground and 159 in the air, while holding Northern Colorado to 334 total yards). Ivory finished with 85 yards, giving him 1,113 yards for the season.

95 Cal Poly Football History -- 95 Years of Gridiron Tradition
C
al Poly football will play its 96th season this fall. Ever since that first 1915 team took the field, Cal Poly football has played with pride and tradition. From the stars of yesterday like Perry Jeter, Alex Bravo, Stan Sheriff, Bobby Beathard, Ted Tollner, John Madden, Mel Kaufman and Louis Jackson, to the stars of recent years like Chris Thomas, Kamil Loud, Seth Burford, Steve Prejean, Adam Herzing, David Richardson, Darrell Jones, Jordan Beck, Chris Gocong, Courtney Brown, Kyle Shotwell, Ramses Barden, Asa Jackson and Deonte Williams, Cal Poly has earned its place in college football history. An undefeated and unscored-upon team in 1933, a perfect record in 1953, playoff trips in 1978 and The 1941 team was Cal Poly’s first as a four-year school and posted a 5-3-1 record. 1990, a national title in 1980 and the school’s first three trips to the Football Championship Subdivision playoffs in 2005, 2008 ing in 1997, reaching as high as 16th following a win over Northern Iowa at and 2012 are just some of the many memories that have made Cal Poly foot- home as the team went 10-1 that year.

1915 Through the 1940s
Above, Ted Tollner (center) hands off to Carl Bowser (left) and Ray Porras. Tollner was head coach at USC and San Diego State while Bowser was a long-time coach at Bakersfield College. Porras died in the 1960 plane crash. At right, Alex Bravo turns the corner for yardage. At left, Bob Lawson was an All-CCAA fullback in 1952 and 1953. Cal Poly played mostly high school and college freshman teams in the first 16 seasons. Then head coach Howie O’Daniels established a little history in his first year at the helm in 1933. His Mustangs enjoyed an undefeated season and did not allow a single point, something only 30 teams in the history of college football have accomplished. The Mustangs continued their defense in 1934, not giving up a single point until
the fifth game of the season. Cal Poly officially became a four-year school during the 1941 season and posted a 5-3-1 record under Coach O’Daniels. A 32-13 win over over San Diego State in ‘41 followed by a 51-0 win over San Francisco State highlighted the season. The Mutangs did not play football in 1943 and 1944 due to World War II. Ronnie Henderson coached Cal Poly to a 1-5-1 mark in 1945 before
Coach O’Daniels returned to the helm in 1946 and guided the Mustangs to a 6-2-1 mark. Quarterback “Pinky” Bebernes of Santa Maria, along with teammates Marshall Samuels, Dave Cool, Joe Griffin and Al Weimers helped lead the Mustangs to a 21-13 upset win over San Diego State in 1946. Bruisers Jim Yates and Bud MacDougal provided the offensive punch much of that year.

Buccola later was AD at Cal Poly. Above right, the Mustang offensive line in 1963 was anchored by Bob Cardoza (52), team captain Gil Stork (51) and Frank Blakemore (55). Coach Roy Hughes replaced Chuck Pavelko in 1950 and vowed, “In three years, we’ll be tough.” In 1953 he lived up to his promises with an undefeated season. The Mustangs were led by All-American Stan Sheriff along with Don Adams, Vic Buccola and quarterback Bob Neal while backs Perry Jeter and Alex Bravo led the nation in scoring. Some consider the 1958 team the best Mustang squad ever. Led by quarterbacks Bobby Bobby Beathard and Tom Beathard Klosterman, they were as tough as they come. Defensive linemen John Madden and Pat Lovell helped lead the team to 53 forced fumbles while allowing just eight touchdowns
all year and only 175.8 yards per game. Beathard’s astute knowledge and leadership abilities later helped him as a scout in the NFL and as part of the front office for seven Super Bowl teams, including four winning squads. He retired as General Manager of the San Diego Chargers and more recently served as an advisor for the Atlanta Falcons. Madden, a bruising tackle, went on to coach the Oakland Raiders to a Super Bowl triumph. After four seasons as color analyst for Monday Night Football on ABC, Madden moved over to NBC for its Sunday Night Football telecasts. Madden, who retired in 2009 has been honored with 14 Emmys for his work with all four major networks. He also was a catcher on the Cal Poly baseball team in the late 1950s. In the decade of the 1950s, Cal Poly compiled a 67-29-1 record. All 10 teams were coached by Hughes and the Mustangs beat such teams as San Diego State, Fresno State and Colorado State.

1960s
Fred Whittingham (66) and Gil Stork (51) were members of Cal Poly’s 1960 football team. Stork survived the crash; Whittingham was not on the plane.
Tragedy struck the 1960 Cal Poly football team following a game at Bowling Green State University on Saturday, October 29, 1960. Immediately following takeoff at Toledo Airport, the plane carrying the team crashed and killed 22 people, including 16 Mustang football players and the team manager. On May 1, 1998, the College Football Hall of Fame in South Bend, IN, dedicated new bronze plaques honoring the Cal Poly men killed in the plane crash along with the victims of plane crashes involving football teams from Wichita State (1970) and Marshall University (1978). Dr. Everett Chandler, Dean of Students at Cal Poly at the time of the crash, helped unveil and dedicate the plaques. Mounted at the Hall of Fame, the plaques immortalize these individuals’ belief in the sport of football and how it symbolizes American society. The names of the deceased are listed for each univerTed Tollner sity on separate plaques. In 2001, Cal Poly announced plans to change the name of Mustang Stadium to Mustang Memorial Field at Alex G. Spanos Stadium. The Memorial Plaza project was completed in 2006 and formally dedicated on Sept. 29, 2006 (see inside back cover). After Cal Poly won just 22 of 67 games in seven seasons following the plane crash, Joe Harper was hired as the Mustangs’ head coach in 1968 and produced 7-3 and 6-4 marks in his first two seasons.
97 October 29, 1960 -- Cal Poly Plane Crash "On Thanksgiving morning this year in the Coliseum, a 'Mercy Bowl' benefit game
will be played to help San Luis Obispo write off its obligations to the tragedy victims, the children they left behind them, and the survivors. My feeling is, it is not only their obligation. It is the obligation of all of us interested in athletics. I can think of no better way to give thanks on that day that we are here and healthy, than to contribute to those who are alone with only memories of that day."

The following is written on a memorial plaque on one of the peristyles at the Los Angeles Coliseum: On Saturday night, October 29, 1960, a plane carrying the Cal Poly 1960 football team, which was returning from a football game with Bowling Green State University in Bowling Green, OH, crashed at the Toledo, Ohio Airport. As a result of this crash, 16 players and the team manager were killed and many injured. To financially assist the families of these athletes, a football game of mercy between Bowling Green and Fresno State was sponsored and staged in the Coliseum on Thanksgiving, November 23, 1961. All proceeds were donated to the Cal Poly Memorial Fund for this purpose.
ALWAYS IN OUR THOUGHTS: Prior to each home game, Cal Poly football players pay tribute to the 1960 football team at the memorial rock near the flagpole at the north end of Alex G. Spanos Stadium. For each road trip, the team loads up the buses near Mott Gym, drives to Alex G. Spanos Stadium and walks to the rock for reflection prior to departing campus.
98 1970s A Mustang defense that included Tom Duggan, Greg Lee, Chris Smeland, Dave Quirk, Wayne Robinson and Tom Chantler led Cal Poly to an 8-0-1 record in 1972 and a trip to the Camellia Bowl for the NCAA Division II Championship of the Western United States at Hughes Stadium in Sacramento. After Mike Foley was injured Oct. 7 against Boise State, fullback Mike Thomas carried the load for the remainder of the season from out of the backfield. The Mustangs were ranked No. 3 in Division II by both the Associated Press and the UPI polls during the year. Cal Poly was also ranked No. 3 in total offense with 448 yards per game and No. 3 in scoring with 37.2 points per game. Running back Gary Davis began a stellar three-year Mustang career by assisting the 1973 squad to a 9-1 record. Davis went on to break most Cal Poly rushing records, finishing with 2,368 career yards. The 1976 Mustangs, with Joe Harper at the helm, finished 7-1-1, including a thrilling 17-15 win at Fresno State. The “Excitement Twins,” tailback Louis Jackson and receiver Robbie Martin, helped lead the 1978 squad to a 73 record and an NCAA Division II playoff berth. The two scored half of Cal Poly’s 38 touchdowns that year. Individually, Jackson led Division II in rushing the entire season and finished with 126.3 yards per game (including 267 vs. Portland State), while Martin had 23.1 receiving yards a game. The Mustangs suffered a 17-0 playoff loss to WinstonSalem State (NC) but would get their revenge two years later in the most memorable season in the history of Cal Poly football (see next page). Each of the 10 Mustang football teams in the 1970s posted a winning record, part of a string of 13 consecutive winning seasons under Harper. The streak ended in Harper’s last season, 1981, when Cal Poly went 4-5. Harper went on to coach at Northern Arizona and Cal Lutheran. Among Harper’s 96 wins were seven against Fresno State, three each against Boise State and Nevada and one against UNLV.

99 1980s
Mustangs Capture National Championship No success was sweeter for the Mustangs than the 1980 season. Quarterback Craig Johnston and senior All-Americans Louis Jackson and Robbie Martin led the Mustangs to the NCAA Division II National Championship with a win over defending champion Eastern Illinois, 21-13, in the Zia Bowl at Albuquerque, NM. Martin scored all three touchdowns in the title game, including a diving 33-yard grab with 14:02 left. He also had a 42-yard punt return for the first Mustang TD. He finished the day with 164 yards to give the school its first NCAA title in footNCAA Division II ball.

Following the championship win over Eastern Illinois, Joe Harper was named Division II Coach of the Year. Cal Poly defeated eventual Division I-AA national champion Boise State 23-20 at home that year. Cal Poly managed only a 4-5 mark in 1981, Harperâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only losing campaign and his last as head coach of the Mustangs. Harper, whose 96 wins are the most by any Cal Poly football coach, went on to coach at Northern Arizona for three seasons and at Cal Lutheran for six years. Jim Sanderson coached the Mustangs to 6-5 and 6-4 seasons in five years at the helm before Lyle Setencich came on board in 1987. Cal Poly went 7-3, 5-4-1 and 5-5 in the first three seasons under Setencich before returning to the playoffs in 1990.

It was a winning combination -- 5-7-9 -- that carried Cal Poly to 1980 NCAA Division II National Championship in Albuquerque, NM. Quarterback Craig Johnston wore No. 7, running back Louis Jackson wore No. 9 and wide receiver Robbie Martin wore No. 5.

Alli Abrew passed for 4,009 yards in two seasons (199697) with the Mustangs.
Mike Fisher is Cal Poly’s all-time career passing leader with 7,494 yards.
The winning continued in the 1990s. Coach Lyle Setencich led the Mustangs to their first postseason appearance since 1980 with a 10-1 record during the 1990 regular season before a loss to North Dakota State in the first round. Standout wide receiver Chris Thomas, who played with the Washington Redskins, St. Louis Rams, Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers in the NFL, helped lead the team to a 14-7 win over Cal State Northridge before another packed Mustang Stadium to propel the Mustangs into the Division II playoffs. In 1994, coach Andre Patterson came to Cal Poly from Washington State, where he was an assistant defensive coach, and led the Mustangs to instant success in the school’s first season competing at the Division I-AA level. The move proved to be the right thing to do as Cal Poly went 7-4 and captured the American West Conference title with an undefeated conference record, posting wins over Southern Utah, Cal State Northridge and Sacramento State. Quarterback Mike Fisher smashed eight school Cal Poly’s football training camp was held at Camp records and five conference marks with 2,536 yards Roberts in 1999 and 2000.

His strong supporting cast in 1994 included two explosive freshmen, running back Antonio Warren and wide receiver Kamil Loud. The Mustangs were ranked fifth nationally against the rush in their maiden season in Division I-AA.

Warren and Craig Young each rushed for more than 1,000 yards during the season and quarterback Alli Abrew finished the season as the No. 1-rated passer in all of Division I-AA. After a 7-0 start to the season, with wins over No. 16 Northern Iowa and I-A New Mexico State, the Mustangs fell for the first time on the road at Liberty. But a last-second win over Montana State and a 20-point whipping of previously undefeated Dayton at home capped a memorable season. While the team may have struggled the following three seasons, posting back-to-back-to-back 3-8 records, the Mustangs certainly entertained and continued to rewrite the record book. November 4, 2000 will be long remembered in the NCAA record book as one of the greatest offensive performances in recent memory. Quarterback Seth Burford and receiver Kassim Osgood hooked up for a record-setting afternoon against Northern Iowa at Mustang Stadium as Burford finished with a school-record 566 yards passing on the day while Osgood set a new national record with 376 yards receiving to go with his two touchdowns. He caught a school-record 17 passes in the game and was named I-AA Offensive Player of the Week by Sports Network while Burford was honored as the I-AA Player of the Week by ESPN.

21st Season in Football Championship Subdivision
Three All-Big Sky Honorees Return
Cal Poly will play its 21st season of NCAA Football Championship Subdivision (formerly Division I-AA) football this fall. After eight years as an independent, the Mustangs competed in the newly formed Great West Football Conference from 2004-11, capturing four championships (2004, 2005, 2008, 2011). Cal Poly played its first two FCS seasons in the defunct American West Conference with Cal State Northridge, Southern Utah and Sacramento State and moved to the Big Sky in 2012.
Cal Poly placed nine players on the 2013 All-Big Sky Conference first, second and third teams last fall and three of the honorees return for the 2014 season -- slotback Kristaan Ivory (second team), defensive end Jake Irwin (third team) and linebacker Nick Dzubnar (third team). A quartet of honorable mentions -- offensive guard Matt Fisher, center Stephen Sippel, defensive tackle Chris Lawrence and linebacker Cameron Ontko -- also will return.

Trio of Mustangs in the NFL When the National Football League opened training camps in July, Cal Poly had three former players on active rosters -- wide receiver Ramses Barden with the Buffalo Bills, cornerback Asa Jackson with the 2013 Super Bowl champion Baltimore Ravens and linebacker Johnny Millard with the St. Louis Rams. Sullivan Grosz was released by the Houston Texans with a foot injury and wide receiver Cole Stanford was invited to the Green Bay Packers’ minicamp and earned a tryout with the Kansas City Chiefs. Defensive end Chris Gocong, drafted in the third round by the Philadelphia Eagles six years ago, missed the entire 2012 season
due to an Achilles’ injury in the preseason and is a free agent after the Browns released him in April 2013. Deonte Williams signed a free agent contract with the Raiders immediately after the 2013 NFL Draft but was cut prior to the 2013 season. Cornerback Courtney Brown was on the roster of the New York Giants in the summer of 2011 but never played, while linebacker Mark Restelli was released by the Miami Dolphins on Sept. 3, 2011, despite a strong preseason. Wide receiver Dominique Johnson was cut by the Minnesota Vikings during the 2011 preseason as well while offensive lineman Scott Winnewisser signed a free agent contract
with the New Orleans Saints on May 29, 2012 but was released. Quarterback Andre Broadous played for the Indoor Football League’s Tri-Cities Fever last spring. He led the Fever to a comefrom-behind win over the Colorado Ice by completing nine of 16 passes for 85 yards and one touchdown and also rushing for 24 yards on seven carries, all in the second half. Linebackers Jordan Beck (Denver Broncos) and Kyle Shotwell were released in 2008 and Brown was let go by the Dallas Cowboys in 2009 and signed with the Giants in early 2010. Gocong, Beck and Shotwell were Buck Buchanan Award winners at Cal Poly.

149 Cal Poly Football History -- Head Coaches
D.W. Schlosser 1915-17
Herman Hess 1919-20
This photo from 1905 shows football being played at Cal Poly in front of the school’s dormitory, eventually named Deuel Hall. Football also was played from 1906 to 1914, but most were intramural games as the Mustang teams were not allowed to play “outside” competition at that time other than San Luis Obispo High School. Though the Cal Poly record books show Cal Poly as playing its first football game in 1915, the Polytechnic Journal reported that club teams were formed from 1905 to 1914. D.W. Schlosser became the first paid coach for the 1915 season, signalling the official start of intercollegiate football at Cal Poly. The Mustangs’ rich football history is highlighted by the undefeated, unscored-upon 1933 team of Howie O’Daniels, the muchheralded undefeated, untied 1953 team coached by Roy Hughes, the first team to earn an NCAA playoff berth (1972, coached by Joe Harper), the 1980 NCAA Division II national championship team, also coached by Harper, and the 1990 NCAA Division II semifinal team coached by Lyle Setencich. Cal Poly moved to Division I in 1994 and three Mustang teams -- 2005, 2008 (both coached by Rich Ellerson) and 2012 (coached by Tim Walsh) -- have qualified for the Football Championship Subdivision playoffs.

152 Osbaldo Orozco: Destined for the Battlefield By Ryan Huff The Tribune San Luis Obispo County
O
sbaldo Orozco wanted to be a soldier long before he came to Cal Poly. After watching “Rambo” as kids, he and his brothers would use broomsticks and knives to attack a make-believe enemy soldier — a cactus in their back yard. Indeed, some would say Orozco was destined for the battlefield, where he died April 26, 2003, on the front lines of Operation Iraqi Freedom. Cal Poly officials held a public memorial May 22, 2003, at the campus’ War Memorial Plaza to honor the 26-year-old alumnus and U.S. Army First Lieutenant. “Baldo,” as his friends called him, died when the Bradley fighting vehicle he was riding in rolled over while rushing to help other American soldiers under attack near Tikrit in northern Iraq. At the memorial service, a few hundred people — including family, veterans, students and past teammates — remembered the former school football star who was commissioned as an Army officer on June 16, 2001, the same day he earned his bachelor’s degree in social science. As the late-afternoon sun reflected off the bronze Mustang Statue, school officials added a 64th name to the plaque below that honors Cal Poly students who died on the battlefield.
Osbaldo Orozco wore paint on his face as a Cal Poly football pregame ritual.

He earned All-American honors as a linebacker for the Mustangs and finished his football career in 1999 with 300 tackles — then third on the team’s all-time list.

She remembered the first day she met Orozco, when she tried to tutor 30 football players after they were exhausted from an afternoon practice. “Most of the players wanted to be Joe Martinez spoke at Cal Poly memorial service. somewhere else,” Frayne said. “But Baldo sat front and center and said, ‘Hi, I’m tunately, it cost us our brother.” The Cal Poly Athletics Department honors the Baldo.

The unity and depth of brotherhood shared by the 1960 players made the group an ideal selection for Cal Poly’s unprecedented selection of an entire team for Hall of Fame honors, according to Alison Cone, Cal Poly’s director of athletics at the time. Eighteen of the original 25 survivors of the tragic plane crash were still alive at the time, and most were present for the remembrance ceremonies, as well as a number of family members. “This dedication is one of the most significant moments in Cal Poly’s

history, as well as for me personally,” said then-Cal Poly President Warren J. Baker. “The new Mustang Memorial Plaza is Cal Poly’s tribute to the 1960 team. With this plaza, we will preserve forever the memory of the 18 who perished in the tragic crash, so that their hopes and dreams live on.” A flock of doves was released during the dedication ceremony and PolyPhonics performed two songs. President Baker presided over the unveiling of the granite plaques placed on 18 copper pillars representing each of the 18 team members -- 16 players, a Mustang booster and the team manager -- who lost their lives in the crash. The 15,000-square-foot Mustang Memorial Plaza is rich in symbolism. It is anchored by a striking bronze sculpture of a mustang created by Roy Harris -- aptly titled “Unbridled Spirit” -- which stands at the center of a ‘team huddle’ created by a circle of 18 pillars faced in copper, a metal that grows more beautiful with time. Each of the 18 pillars stands at the same height as that of its honoree. Soft beams of light glow from the tops of the pillars, permanent beacons that serve to guide those who wish to honor the memory of the team. Each pillar displays a granite plaque engraved with the 1961 yearbook photo of the honored individual, statistics for that player, and personal information. As one family member wrote in tribute to its lost loved one, “Always loved. Never forgotten.”
