WIDENER PRIDE
2011 PREVIEW Resilience was the name of the game in 2010 for Widener’s football team. Consistency will be the word as the squad looks for bigger and better things on the gridiron in 2011. The Pride entered a new era a season ago under coach Isaac Collins, looking to restore their claim as one of the elite programs in the Middle Atlantic Conference. By mid-season, the pieces were coming into place and the team made a strong march toward the finish line to close 5-5. That finish was punctuated by a stunning 28-27 victory at eighthranked Delaware Valley, returning the Keystone Cup to Chester for the 23rd time in 30 meetings. The Pride overcame a 14-point deficit in the final 7 1/2 minutes, getting a touchdown and two-point conversion with no time remaining. Even with only five starters returning on each side of the ball, Widener has plenty to look forward to as the program’s 131st season looks to be one of its finest. It should come as no surprise that the defense will be counted on in a big way. That defense ended third in the MAC overall and third in rushing. The incomparable Laquan Robinson returns at cornerback for his sophomore campaign after being picked second team all-league last year. Most know him as an All-American returner (more on that later), but Robinson helped solidify a secondary after being inserted into the starting lineup in week five. Sophomore Stephon Singleton is the leading candidate to win the second spot at cornerback. Sophomores Marquis Stewart and Michael Johnson also look to battle for time. The starting roles at safety are up for grabs following graduation, but senior Gary Fish appears to have an inside track at one of those spots. He closed 10th on the squad last season with 14 solo tackles for a unit which had two established seniors ahead of him. Sophomore Colin Masterson also hopes to win a spot after being the Pride’s opening-day quarterback last season. Senior Brad Waltman and sophomore Kossivi Woluko enter camp as the backups. The linebacking unit is led by junior Joe Wojceichowski, who

Chad Gravinese in 2010 was picked second team All-MAC. He made his presence felt by ending 17th in the MAC with 64 tackles to lead the team, 11 tackles for a loss that was eighth in the league and led the Pride with 33 solo tackles. Wojceichowski had five games with at least eight tackles, including 10 at NCAA Tournament participant Alfred. Joining him at outside linebacker is junior Jamal Dorsey, who closed last year with 17 tackles that included 10 solos. Senior Chris Cottrell hopes to win the role of middle linebacker in the 4-3 defense. Senior Robert Watkins enters as Cottrell’s backup with sophomore Dylan Ditmer and junior James Showell as the reserves on the outside. The line is the most experienced part of the defense with three returning starters. Senior Greg Walsh leads this group after totaling 30 tackles last year to close eighth on the team. Senior Dan Cosenza is back at tackle after totaling 24 tackles last season, including four for a loss. Senior Keith Wilson returned from injury in mid-season to give Widener some punch on the outside. Junior Chad Gravinese looks to fill the void at defensive end left by the graduation of All-MAC standout Shane Szumski. Senior John Philpott and sophomore Pierce Joiner also should see action at defensive tackle. Sophomore Darius Johnson and junior Andrew Madanat will be keys at defensive end. The offense turned the corner toward the end of last season and looks to find even more consistency as the 2011 campaign begins. Junior Chris Haupt hopes to be just that player at quarterback. Inserted back into the role late last season that he had in 2009, Haupt started four of the last six games and played a huge role in the victory at Delaware Valley. Haupt ended the year fourth in the MAC in passing yards per game and fifth in total offense. Sophomore Tevin Campbell, who was an instrumental player last season with his speed, looks for time after starting the final two contests in 2010. Widener has lots of options at wide receivers, but it is senior Cedrick Clayton who stands out as one of the leaders. Deservedly

2011 PREVIEW named first team All-MAC last season, he ended first in the league with 62 catches, third with 700 receiving yards and first among Widener receivers with four touchdowns. Sophomore Jermaine Quattlebaum made his case for playing time after posting 11 catches last season to finish sixth for the Pride. Junior Carmen Imbalzano and newcomer Mackenzie Williams also look for starting roles. Junior Steve Marerro, Dennis Wolley, fellow sophomore Adam Marcucci and newcomer Derrick Williams will vie for time at receiver.
The tight end spot takes a huge hit with the graduation of two-time first team all-league standout Michael Penna. Junior Dom DePasquale will have big shoes to fill as he looks to start with newcomer Brian DiGiovanni hoping to back up. Senior Brendan Curran made an enormous splash last season at fullback with an astounding 11 touchdowns to end fourth in the MAC, including four at Lebanon Valley. Junior Dante Pergolese hopes for carries at tailback after seeing limited action last season. Sophomore Kyle Shostek moves over from the defense to try earning a spot at fullback. Sophomore Terrant Morrison seeks time at tailback. The offensive line will have a different look with three starters from last season graduating, including four-year left tackle and first team all-league performer Harry Rannels. The right side looks secure with senior Andrew Philpott returning at guard and junior Gerry Pacitti back at tackle. Pacitti’s younger brother Mike is a viable candidate to start at center, junior Charles Evans looks to win the spot at left tackle and newcomer Julian Albert holds the edge at left guard. Senior Ryan Eckenrode and junior Jared Perricone also will see time at guard with sophomore Gary Colone and newcomer TJ Zimmerman going for a spot at tackle. Newcomer Coolidge Frye goes for time at center.

On special teams, Robinson once again hopes to provide explosiveness. Named second team All-American, first team All-MAC, the ECAC South Rookie of the Year and a preseason first team All-America this year, Robinson dazzled many with four returns for touchdowns that included three punt returns. The ability to change the game was evident against FDU-Florham with punt returns for touchdowns of 63 and 62 yards in Widener’s 35-20 win. It continued versus Wilkes with an 87-yard kickoff return for a score in a 41-21 victory. It culminated in the victory at Delaware Valley on a 54-yard punt return that he made look easy. Robinson easily was first in the MAC with 14.0 yards per punt return and fifth with 22.0 yards per kickoff return. Senior Matt Breslin is back for his third year at kicker. He was third in the league last season by hitting 94 percent of his extra points and seventh in the MAC among kickers with 32 points. Senior Kevin Huelster returns for a third campaign at punter. He was fourth in the MAC a season ago, averaging 34.8 yards per punt. Sophomore Ian Groover looks for the role as long snapper. For the second straight year, the Pride have four postseason teams from the previous campaign on their schedule. That begins with ECAC Southeast Bowl winner Moravian at home on September 3, the earliest game in Widener history. The “MAC-PAC Football Challenge Series” ends September 10 with a game at Thiel in suburban Pittsburgh. League play opens the following week at home against Lycoming. Wilkes, which lost to Moravian in the ECAC Southeast Bowl, is the foe on September 24. Widener on October 22 closes the home schedule against Lebanon Valley, which played in the ECAC South Atlantic Bowl last year. The regular season concludes November 12 at reigning league champion Delaware Valley in the 31st Keystone Cup game.

Widener put forth its best effort in the season opener, but Alfred was just too tough in the season opener. The Pride, playing their first game under new coach Isaac Collins, returned just 11 of their 22 starters from last season and did their best under the new regime. Adam Smith had 17 carries for 70 yards, including a 29-yard burst in the first half for Widener, which was playing its earliest game in school history. Cedrick Clayton had three receptions for 45 yards. Jon Natter and Joe Wojceichowski notched 10 tackles apiece with Wes O’Kula recording his first career interception. Tom Secky completed 19-of-24 passes for 218 yards and two touchdowns for the Saxons. Ryan Thon had eight catches for 73 yards, Adam Schutz hauled in both touchdown receptions and Mike Raplee ended with 11 tackles. Alfred, which went to the NCAA Tournament last season, got the game’s first break when a short punt was downed at Widener’s 32 yard line. Six plays later, Eric Rockwood booted a 38-yard field goal with 9:44 left in the first quarter for a 3-0 contest. The next key play also was turned by the Saxons. Widener backup quarterback Chris Haupt was forced out of the pocket and threw a pass that was intercepted by Nick Clark, who brought it to the Pride’s three yard line. Alfred converted on the first play of the second quarter as Chuck Beckwith ran it in from one yard on fourth down for a 10-0 margin. The Saxons bumped the lead to 17-0 with 7:17 to play in the half. Schutz caught a pass from Secky, broke a tackle and sprinted the rest of the way for a 37-yard touchdown. Secky completed 10-of-11 passes in the opening half for the Saxons, who held a 131-79 edge in total offense.

Widener got a solid combination of great defense and 21 first-half points for its first shutout in six years. The first half told the story as Widener held Thiel to a mere eight yards of offense on 24 plays. The defense was breached for just two first downs in that stretch and limited the visitors to 1-of-7 on third-down conversions. Offensively, the Pride amassed 230 yards in the half with that equally divided between rushing and passing. Widener had an impressive 10 first downs in the first 30 minutes. Widener scored all the points it would need with 7:37 left in the first quarter, getting a 23-yard touchdown run from Brendan Curran. This capped a 10-play, 71-yard drive for a 7-0 lead. The second score required only a 44-yard march, ending with quarterback Colin Masterson running it in from one yard with 7:07 to go in the half for a 14-0 margin. Masterson on the drive had a 30-yard completion to Cedrick Clayton and a 12-yard pass to Michael Penna to the one yard line. Masterson ended the scoring with 3:44 remaining in the half, tossing a 37yard scoring pass to Justin Horning. Matt Breslin booted the last of his three extra points. Shane Szumski had a solid game, recording six solo tackles, two sacks, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery. The defense forced the Tomcats to go three-and-out seven times. Masterson completed 11-of-21 passes for 134 yards and one score. Adam Smith ended with 12 carries for 73 yards for Widener, which finished with a 317-137 edge in total offense. Jared Soell completed 17-of-29 passes for 83 yards for Thiel. Cash Culver totaled six receptions with Bobby Shew notching eight tackles. It was Widener’s first shutout since a 7-0 blanking of Lycoming in 2004. It also was the squad’s first non-conference shutout since a 14-0 victory over Dickinson in the first round of the 1994 NCAA Tournament.

Widener went up against a strong Ithaca team and hung with them in the first half before falling at Leslie C. Quick Jr. Stadium. After a scoreless opening quarter, Ithaca cracked the scoreboard with 10:42 left in the second when Rob Zappia hit Dan Ruffrage on a four-yard touchdown pass to cap a 46-yard drive. Andrew Rogowski hit the extra point and then booted a 28-yard field goal with 39 seconds remaining for a 10-0 halftime lead. The Bombers struck pay dirt on their first possession of the second half when Ruffrage caught his second touchdown pass, a three-yard play from Zappia with 10:03 to go for a 17-0 contest. Morgan Abdelnour recovered a fumble for Ithaca at Widener’s 14 yard line and Matt Crandall hauled in a five-yard scoring pass with 8:32 remaining in the third, making it 24-0. Evan Bull capped the scoring for Ithaca with 1:59 left, catching a 17-yard pass for Zappia’s fourth touchdown throw and a 31-0 game. Widener ruined the shutout with 11:19 to play, getting a three-yard touchdown run from Dante Pergolese to end a 13-play, 81 yard drive. Quarterback Colin Masterson went 7-for-8 on the drive that included a 14-yard pass to Cedrick Clayton and an 11-yard toss to Ben Petrak. Masterson completed 14-of-23 passes for 99 yards. Clayton and Michael Penna each amassed four catches with Jon Natter adding seven tackles. Ruffrage ended with eight catches for 100 yards. Zappia completed 23-of-34 passes for 252 yards, with 153 of those coming in the first half on 13-of-23 attempts. Ithaca closed with a 335-145 edge in total offense. This included a 261-103 margin in passing yards.

Chris Haupt jump-started the offense in the second half and Laquan Robinson returned two punts for touchdowns for the Pride. Haupt came in to start the third quarter with Widener down 13-7 and was nothing short of spectacular. This was no more evident that the team’s first drive in which he completed 9-of-13 passes for 69 yards. That 17-play, 76-yard drive, which featured three completions of at least 10 yards, culminated when Brendan Curran ran it in from one yard with 5:59 left in the quarter. The extra point from Matt Breslin gave the Pride a 14-13 lead. Widener’s defense early in the fourth forced FDU to punt after a three-and-out. The Devils made the mistake of booting it to Robinson, who zigzagged his way 62 yards for his second such score of the contest and a 21-13 lead. A short punt by the Devils’ John Hancock went out of bounds at their own 27 yard line. The Pride made them pay on the first play with Haupt finding Cedrick Clayton on a touchdown with 3:56 remaining and a 28-13 margin. The Devils made things interesting on the next drive with Matt Jeffers hitting Andrew Scamporino on a 66-yard pass to the Widener five yard line. Jeffers two plays later found Tim Grey on a five-yard fade route with 3:10 to go for a 28-20 contest. Widener on its next drive sealed the contest when Adam Smith broke through the line and scampered 23 yards for a score with 2:01 left for the final. Haupt completed 18-of-28 passes for 199 yards, helping Widener gain a 297-140 edge in total offense in the second half. Clayton ended with eight catches for 102 yards and Mohammad Conteh posted six receptions for 60 yards. Robinson closed with 127 yards in punt returns, which is believed to be the third highest total in school history, to go with 24 yards in kickoff returns and an interception. His 63-yard punt return for a score with 10:29 remaining in the first quarter gave Widener a 7-0 lead. Joe Woceichowski ended with eight tackles and Kevin Franklin totaled seven for Widener.

The Pride took advantage of a 39-yard drive in only four plays to grab a 7-0 lead with 10:25 left in the first half. Haupt lofted a perfect fade pass to Clayton, who tapped down near the back of the end zone. Matt Breslin added the extra point. Haupt and Clayton connected again following a turnover. Haupt fired a pass over the middle that Clayton hauled in and outraced the defense for a 35-yard scamper with 5:46 to play in the half and a 14-0 lead. That drive started at the Monarchs 38 yard line after Shane Szumski forced running back Eric Ofcharsky to fumble and Greg Walsh recovered. King’s halved the deficit on its next possession. Corey Lavin stepped back and hit Jay Torres on a 59-yard touchdown reception with 4:10 left in the second quarter for a 14-7 contest. The Monarchs on the first drive of the second half looked in great shape when Ofcharsky dashed 51 yards to the Pride 34 yard line. They also used a 28-yard pass from Lavin to David Abdalla to create a first and goal at the six. But on fourth down at the one, linebacker Joe Favinger had other ideas by stopping Ofcharshy on a pitch for a two-yard loss. King’s would not be upset for long. With Widener backed up forced to punt, Kevin Huelster had his boot blocked by Eris Crisman which Edwyn Edwards recovered in the end zone with 9:14 left in the third quarter for a 14-14 tie. The Pride’s offense quickly got in gear on the next drive, especially when Haupt bolted 47 yards to the Monarchs 12 yard line. Haupt and Clayton once again ended the march, this time on a six-yard connection in which the latter made a great diving catch for a 21-14 contest with 5:57 left. King’s tried a fake punt deep from its own 21 yard line late in the third quarter, but Brad Waltman was there to break up a pass from Mike Schifalacqua intended for Paul Chiorazzi. Widener on the first play of the fourth quarter turned in its own blocked punt for a touchdown. James Showell swated Schifalacqua’s punt and Courtland Bragg recovered for a score. Breslin’s fourth extra point gave Widener a 28-14 lead. Haupt got his fourth touchdown with 2:14 left, hitting Adam Smith on a nine-yard pass for a 34-21 contest. Joe Wojceichowski sacked Lavin for a safety with 1:44 left for the final. Haupt completed 16-of-31 passes for 169 yards and Clayton notched seven receptions for 97 yards for Widener, which overcame a 365-313 deficit in total offense. Dan Cosenza and Laquan Robinson had seven tackles apiece.

Widener battled to the end in a tussle of MAC unbeaten squads, but was handed a loss by Lycoming. The game started as an offensive struggle with two of the top defenses in the MAC unwilling to give an inch. That changed with 6:23 left in the first quarter, when Lycoming quarterback Zach Klinger hit Ryan Wagaman on a 63-yard pass down the right sideline for a touchdown and a 7-0 lead. The Warriors doubled the margin to 14-0 with Josh Kleinfelter taking the handoff and bolting 44 yards up the middle with 3:57 left in the period. Widener benefited from a short punt that bounced dead at the Lycoming 39 yard line. Chris Haupt completed 4-of-5 passes on the drive and Brendan Curran ended it on a one-yard scoring bolt with 10 seconds left in the first half. The extra point from Matt Breslin cut the Pride’s deficit to 14-7. The Warriors made the Pride’s first drive of the third quarter a short one as Ryan Fenningham intercepted Haupt’s pass and returned it to the Widener 10 yard line. The Pride’s defense held their ground before TJ Chiarlanza booted a 27-yard yard field goal with 5:10 to play in the third quarter for a 17-7 Lycoming lead. A turnover once again hurt the Pride as Kaiuway Boima was stripped by Roger Jayne, who returned it to the Widener 24 yard line. On the ensuing play, Klinger hit Wagaman for a touchdown pass just 27 seconds into the fourth quarter for a 24-7 contest. The Warriors ended the scoring on a wild play. Ray Bierach intercepted a deflected pass, broke several tackles and maneuvered his way 84 yards for a touchdown with 11 seconds remaining for the final. Haupt completed 22-of-43 passes for 200 yards and Cedrick Clayton had eight receptions for 63 yards for Widener. Joe Wojceichowski amassed eight tackles and Greg Walsh totaled seven. Kleinfelter had a day with 26 carries for 139 yards for the Warriors, who forced five turnovers. Wagaman caught five passes for 107 yards for Lycoming, which has won three straight in the series for the first time in 11 years.

Widener nearly overcame a 22-point deficit in the final 7 1/2 minutes, but was handed a loss by Albright. The first 52 1/2 minutes belonged to Albright’s Josan Holmes, who had four rushing touchdowns to break the Quick Stadium record and threw for another. He ended with 25 carries for 149 yards to go with a 71-yard touchdown pass, posting 220 of the Lions’ 419 yards of offense. Down 35-13, Widener began its charge. A 10-play, 75-yard drive was capped when Brendan Curran bolted one yard for a touchdown with 5:53 left for a 35-20 contest. Holmes’ luster on his standout game started to wear down when he was stripped on the first play of the next drive. Widener’s Darius Johnson recovered at the Lions 24. Five plays later, Curran ran in from five yards for his third touchdown of the day and a 35-27 contest with 4:58 to go. An on-side kick was recovered by Albright, which went three-and-out and punted to the Widener six yard line with 2:16 to play. The Pride’s first attempt to look for a tie was thwarted when Ryan McAdams intercepted Chris Haupt at the Widener 33 yard line. Another three-and-out brought another punt, downed at the 24 yard line with 32 seconds remaining. Widener drove to the Albright 46, but Haupt’s “Hail Mary” pass was intercepted by Keith Bruno in the end zone as time expired for Albright’s third pick. Haupt completed 28-of-53 passes for a career-best 323 yards and his second game over 300 for Widener, which closed with 458 yards of offense to go with 27 first downs. Cedrick Clayton had 10 catches for 119 yards and Laquan Robinson notched 148 yards in returns. Jon Natter had seven tackles to go with two sacks, one of six on the day for Widener among its 12 tackles for a loss. Adam Galczynski completed 12-of-16 passes for 160 yards and Malik Compton had nine tackles for the Lions. Holmes began things with his long touchdown pass to Sean Caldwell with 3:08 left in the first quarter and a 7-0 margin. His scoring runs were from 11, one, 19 and two yards with the latter giving Albright a 35-13 cushion with 7:33 left. Kaiuway Boima scored on a 13-yard touchdown pass from Haupt for the Pride. Curran’s first touchdown was a seven-yard run with 4:37 left in the third quarter that brought Widener to a 14-7 deficit.

Brendan Curran rushed for four touchdowns in a game Widener had 417 yards of total offense, but time simply ran out on the visitors in a wild loss at LVC. Curran’s total was one shy of the school record set by the great Billy “White Shoes” Johnson. LVC struck on the game’s first possession. Caleb Fick completed a 37-yard touchdown pass to Ed Tobin just 2:28 in, ending a six-play, 65-yard drive for a 7-0 contest. Things did not improve for Widener when Zach Bleiler sacked Chris Haupt and jarred the ball loose. Bleiler scooped it and ran 15 yards for a score with 6:04 to go in the first for a 14-0 LVC lead. Tevin Campbell was inserted at quarterback and made a huge impact. He ended his first drive on a 34-yard burst in which he dove inside the left pylon for a touchdown and a 14-7 deficit with 3:47 to play in the first. Campbell continued to be a force on the next drive, rushing for 30 yards to go with a four-yard completion. The 70-yard drive ended on the 12th play, when Curran powered in from four yards and a 14-14 tie with 10:07 to go the first half. LVC gave it right back on the ensuing kickoff. Jake Ziegler was stripped by Gary Fish and Courtland Bragg recovered for the Pride at the LVC 38 yard line. Curran finished the drive on a one-yard plunge with 6:53 to play in the half. That gave the Pride their first lead at 21-14, which included the extra point from Matt Breslin. LVC came back on the next drive, marching down to the one before Fick hooked up with Brendan Riley on a scoring pass. The conversion from Sean Fakete with 2:47 to go in the half made it a 21-21 tie. The Pride came right back on their next drive, getting Curran to run in from one yard for his third touchdown of the half. Breslin’s extra point with 15 seconds remaining gave Widener a 28-21 lead. The second half began in a bizarre way as LVC tried an on-side that the home team thought they recovered. But the officials huddled and correctly ruled that LVC illegally touched it, thus giving the Pride possession just 39 yards from pay dirt. The reliable Curran did his thing again, capping the drive with another one-yard touchdown run just three minutes into the half for a 35-21 Widener lead. LVC ended its next drive as Fick threw a five-yard touchdown pass to Yahya McIntyre, making it a 35-28 Pride lead with 4:47 left in the third. LVC completed its comeback from a 14-yard comeback, getting a two-yard scoring pass from Fick to Tobin just 10 seconds into the fourth quarter for a 35-35 deadlock. Widener on its next possession got the lead right back. The Pride completed two third-down conversions before Breslin booted a 27-yard field goal with 9:26 remaining for a 38-35 cushion. The game of swings went back to LVC when Nic Shirey intercepted Haupt and returned it to their own 44 yard line. Fick scored on a four-yard sweep to the left with 2:26 remaining.

The Colonels took a 14-13 lead with 10:45 left in the third quarter when Zach Tivald scored on a four-yard touchdown run. But the Pride took over from there, rattling off the next 28 points to end a three-game skid and upend the Colonels for the first time since 2007. That control began on the ensuing kickoff, which Laquan Robinson returned 87 yards for a touchdown and a 20-14 Pride lead. It was Robinson’s third return for a score this year, including two punt returns, and Widener’s first kickoff return for a touchdown since Mike Schmidt had a 90-yard burst vs. Frostburg State on October 16, 2004. Widener’s first possession that spilled into the fourth quarter produced a huge score. Chris Haupt completed 5-of-6 passes on the drive for 51 yards, including a 14-yard touchdown pass to Michael Penna and a 27-14 margin with 13:15 left. Adam Smith dominated Widener’s next march. He had a 56-yard run in which he was stopped at the three yard line and ran it in on the next play with 7:31 to go for a 34-14 contest. It was his second touchdown run of the contest. The defense then took its turn on center stage. Dylan Ditmer intercepted Alex George and scampered 32 yards for a touchdown, making it 41-14 with 7:08 to go. Matt Breslin booted his fifth extra point to end Widener’s scoring. Smith had 15 carries for 113 yards and Cedrick Clayton hauled in seven receptions for 68 yards. Haupt completed 10-of-16 passes for 103 yards and Tevin Campbell was successful on 11-of-19 attempts for 104 yards. Campbell also had 16 carries for 97 yards, helping the Pride accumulate 469 yards of offense and 25 first downs to go with converting 6-of-15 third-down attempts. Favinger had seven tackles and one of six sacks for Widener. Tivald ended with 20 carries for 126 yards and two scores with Tyler Berntsen completing 14-of-24 passes for 175 yards for the Colonels. Tate Moore-Jacobs posted 15 tackles. Smith scored his first touchdown on an eight-yard run on Widener’s first possession for a 6-0 lead. Tivald answered with 5:36 remaining in the half on a seven-yard scoring run for a 7-6 Wilkes cushion. Brendan Curran came through with his team-leading 11th touchdown, a 19-yard bolt with 2:58 to go in the half and a 13-7 Pride lead. The 11 rushing touchdowns are the most for Widener since Leon Payne had 20 in 1998.

Chris Haupt threw an 11-yard touchdown pass to Michael Penna as time expired and then hooked up with Cedrick Clayton on the two-point conversion for a wild, crazy and exhilarating upset of No. 8 Delaware Valley. Down 27-13 in the fourth quarter, Widener turned to the electrifying Laquan Robinson to get things started. He continued his standout campaign with a much-needed boost, making a 54-yard punt return for a touchdown look way too easy for a 27-20 deficit with 7:26 remaining. It was Robinson’s third punt return for a touchdown and his fourth overall return for a score. Widener continued its surge with Del Val facing fourth down and inches at the home team’s 30. The Aggies chose to run up the middle with Tom Devlin after standout Matt Cook got hurt, but Shane Szumski and Dan Cosenza were up to the challenge by stopping him at the line with 3:57 left. The Pride faced further adversity with a fourth down and five and came through with Haupt hitting Rick Ritter on a 12-yard pass to the Aggies 35. Widener converted on another fourth down, this time with Haupt finding Adam Smith on a seven-yard pass and lunge to the 27 yard line. Widener’s third fourth-down conversion kept the game going with Smith bursting five yards to the 15 yard line with 25 seconds to go. The Pride then went to the bag of tricks with Haupt finding left tackle Harry Rannels on a lineman-eligible pass to the 11 yard line. Following two incomplete passes, the Pride faced another fourth down but with just two seconds left. There was no worry as Haupt was patient and found Penna, who wrestled the ball away from a defender in the end zone for his second touchdown of the game and a one-point deficit. There was little hesitation what to do from there as Widener went for the win. The Pride showed a formation with the lineman spread out and Haupt displayed confidence all the way. He threw a short pass to Clayton, who got great blocks from his linemen on the outside and ran inside the pylon for the shocking win. The victory gives Widener back the Keystone Cup, which it won for the 23rd time in 30 meetings since the trophy was first presented in 1981. The Pride hold a 26-7 lead in the series and posted their first win in Doylestown since 2002. Haupt completed 27-of-54 passes for 272 yards and two scores for the Pride, who amassed 360 yards of offense and notched 22 first downs. Joe Wojceichowski closed with nine tackles. Cook finished with 27 carries for 132 yards and Mark Hatty completed 17-of-31 passes for 203 with three touchdowns for the Aggies. Mike Jaskowski closed with 14 tackles that included nine solos.

MIDDLE ATLANTIC CONFERENCE / 2010 REVIEW The Middle Atlantic Conference, formerly the Middle Atlantic States Collegiate Athletic Conference and commonly known as the MAC, originated in 1912 as a loose confederation of colleges. It was unified into an actual all-sports playing conference in 1952 and became the oldest and largest Division III conference holding NCAA membership. In 1999, spurred by changes in the NCAA championship structure, the corporation formed as an umbrella for three conferences: Commonwealth, Freedom, and Middle Atlantic (all 16 institutions). The Commonwealth is made up of Albright, Arcadia, Alvernia, Elizabethtown, Lebanon Valley, Lycoming, Messiah and Widener. The Freedom is comprised of Delaware Valley, DeSales, Eastern, FDU-Florham, King’s, Manhattanville, Misericordia and Wilkes. Stevenson and Hood will join the MAC in 2011-12 and are expected to be part of the Commonwealth Conference. The earliest records indicate that the Middle Atlantic States Collegiate Athletic Association was organized December 11, 1912. The first annual meeting was held May 16, 1913, followed by the first annual track meet at Lafayette College the next day. In subsequent years, the association grew and many leagues sprang within it. The Middle Atlantic Collegiate Wrestling Association, formed in March 1925, was the first to name a Middle Atlantic champion. The first basketball conference, formed as three divisions (North, West, South), had winners join an at-large selection for a four-team playoff. The threesection alignment eventually dissolved, but the Southern Division remained intact. Alignments were further altered when the NCAA created Divisions I, II and III. The MAC added women’s athletics in 1978-79. The steady incorporation of senior women’s administrators into the conference hierarchy reached its zenith when Dr. Carol Fritz, associate athletic director at Western Maryland, was elected president in 1986. During the first 76 years, several athletic directors served as conference coordinators on a part-time basis. David B. Eavenson, a MAC legend, served as president, publicity director and executive director from 19721988. Nathan Salant in 1998 became the conference’s first full-time executive director. Major changes were made for the 1993-94 year. Ten schools left to form their own association. Their departure served as a catalyst for the

presidents and athletic administrators of the remaining 16 schools to form a streamlined, efficient, dual-league organization. This “new look” was part of a national movement to consolidate similar institutions for competitive athletic opportunities while increasing presidential involvement in the setting of athletic policy. It also was the year Linda Hopple became the league’s first female executive director, serving from 1993-2000. Ken Andrews took over for Hopple, becoming the conference’s third full-time executive director. The conference office was housed at Widener University from 1988-93. It was moved to the campus of Lebanon Valley College upon the hiring of Hopple and remains there today. A moratorium on new membership ended in June 1995. In December of that year, the board accepted Allentown College (now DeSales University) as a new member of the conference, effective for the 1997-98 academic year. DeSales was placed in the Freedom Conference and replaced Upsala College, which closed its doors in 1995. The conference sponsors competition in baseball, basketball, cross country, field hockey, football, golf, indoor and outdoor track and field, lacrosse, soccer, softball, swimming, tennis and volleyball.

WIDENER PRIDE
PRO SIGNINGS / HONOR ROLL
NFF & college FOOTBALL hall of fame Billy “White Shoes” Johnson was among the first class of divisional football players inducted into the National Football Foundation and College Hall of Fame in August 1996. Fellow All-America Tom Deery became Widener’s second inductee in 1998, entering the hall’s third class. Bill Manlove, who coached Widener from 1969-91, was enshrined in 2011. One of the most colorful and amazing open field runners in college football, Johnson still holds 29 school game, season and career records. During his time at Widener he shattered no less than nine all-time NCAA marks and 12 Middle Atlantic Conference records. During his career (1971-73), Johnson scored 62 touchdowns, rushed for 3,737 yards and accounted for 5,404 all-purpose yards.
pro aTHLETES AND draft choices Jim Magner 1931 Frankford Yellowjackets Ed Kawal 1931; 33-36 Chicago Bears 1937 Washington Redskins Bill “Reds” Pollock 1935-36 Chicago Bears 1937; 42-43 Philadelphia Eagles Ed Walsh 1961 New York Titans
Deery sparked many Widener comebacks with key interceptions and long kick returns, leading his team to a four-year record of 42-3 and an NCAA Division III title in 1981. A three-time All-America (1979-81), Deery still holds four school records, including career interceptions (24), career punt return yards (1,007), career interception return yards (293) and longest kickoff return yards (100).
Manlove was the molder and shepherd for one of the elite programs to hit the gridiron on any level. His mild-mannered approach and belief in a team philosophy helped this proud program win NCAA titles in 1977 and 1981. Manlove also was a part of 10 Middle Atlantic Conference championships, seven NCAA Tournament appearances and four undefeated regular seasons during his tenure. He coached 31 All-Americans during his 23 years (1969-91) and posted 21 straight winning seasons.

WIDENER PRIDE
1977, 1981 NATIONAL CHAMPIONS The 1977 season provided more than just the school’s first NCAA championship in any sport. It left many memorable moments for a team who stuck together throughout the campaign after beginning in less than ideal shape. The offense looked in disarray with just one returning starter. The defense was in a worse predicament after three standouts decided, respectively, to quit, become a state trooper and enter the Marines. Leave it to perennially optimistic Hall-of-Fame coach Bill Manlove (pictured) to turn the tide and create one of the school’s most magical runs. Manlove was not the only one wearing blue and gold in high spirits. After Widener’s season-opening 28-0 victory over Lebanon Valley, All-America running back Chip Zawoiski told Manlove, “I’ll see you in Alabama, Coach” (site of the national championship game). Zawoiski’s prognostication did not look profound after the following week’s loss to Fordham, but little did anyone know that would be the Pioneers’ final setback of the year. The Pioneers (11-1) rolled through the remainder of the regular season and into the NCAA Tournament for the second time in three years. A quarterfinal date at Central in Pella, Iowa turned out to be no match. The home team sported the nation’s leading rusher, but Zawoiski stole the show with a then tournament-record 31 carries along with 171 yards in Widener’s 19-0 victory. The semifinal against Albany State was played in the mud at Memorial Stadium, coupled with a brutal wind. The Pioneers squandered an early 12-0 lead, but Steve Warrington’s 52-yard punt return for a touchdown was the catalyst in a 33-15 victory, confirming Zawoiski’s insight and Manlove’s belief in his unit. The Stagg Bowl in Phenix City, AL against Wabash saw Widener fall into a 10-0 hole. But in a contest which featured five lead changes, the Pioneers’ biggest play gave them an insurmountable advantage. The usually cautious Manlove called for quarterback Mark Walter to hit Walker Carter on a bomb, which worked for a 70-yard touchdown pass late in the game and a 39-28 lead. Upon the conclusion of Widener’s 39-36 victory, students who witnessed the nationally televised game on a rented seven-foot screen in Alumni Auditorium poured out of the hall and on to nearby Memorial Stadium in jubilation. The offense that looked skeptical, at first, saw Zawoiski finish the season with 1,576 rushing yards and 21 touchdowns, and Walter close with 1,312 yards passing and 15 touchdowns. The defense, minus all the defections, held seven opponents in single figures and yielded just 11.6 points per game. The 1981 undefeated season was as much about a team celebration than anything else. After all, the senior class could claim at year’s end a 42-3 record over four seasons, four conference championships, three NCAA Tournament appearances and a national championship. But it was one player who stood out. Tom Deery (pictured), a three-time All-American and one of three Pioneers in the College Football Hall of Fame, not only was the spark plug on defense and special teams a fourth straight season, but again provided the big moments when needed. Unlike the 1980 season when the Pioneers cruised to most of their victories, the 1981 campaign was a scratch-and-claw effort that saw the team defeat some game opponents and prepare them for bigger tests. The first big test was the last game of the regular season at Swarthmore with the MAC Southern Division title and an NCAA berth at stake. The Garnet fans were seeking a huge upset on their home turf, but the Pioneers’ defense came through by allowing just 53 yards rushing in a 16-6 victory. The national quarterfinals the following week at West Georgia this time provided an opportunity for the pass defense to shine. Widener surrendered just 89 yards through the air and held on for a 10-3 triumph. Enter Montclair State to Memorial Stadium for the semifinals. Enter Tom Deery. The Indians scored early in the fourth quarter to close within 14-12. Deery made sure it would once again be a two-possession game. Breaking a school record that stood since 1926, Deery returned the ensuing kickoff 100 yards for a touchdown and a 21-12 game. The 23-12 victory once again had the Pioneers packing their bags for Phenix City. This time, the final opponent would be one a little more familiar. Dayton not only was the defending national champion, but it had rallied from a 24-point deficit the year before for a stunning 28-24 semifinal victory over Widener in Chester. Just like 1977, the Pioneers found themselves in a 10-0 quagmire in the Stagg Bowl. They found a way again and this time, it would be Deery to the rescue. Deery came through by returning a punt 76 yards for a touchdown and a 10-7 deficit. Tony Britton gave Widener the lead for good on a 20-yard touchdown run and Mark Stephan added a 23-yard field goal for a 17-10 victory, capping a 13-0 season. Deery ended the campaign with 11 interceptions along with 833 return yards.

WIDENER PRIDE
LESLIE C. QUICK JR. STADIUM The capstone of the Widener athletic facilities is Leslie C. Quick Jr. Stadium, which was unveiled for the 1994 football season. Located in the wooded hollow that has grown from a 19th century quarry, the stadium is adjacent to the Schwartz Athletic Center complex. Dedicated on October 15, 1994, the stadium is named for alum and former University Chairman of the Board Leslie C. Quick Jr., ‘50. During his undergraduate years, Mr. Quick served as manager of the football and basketball teams for three years under Woody Ludwig. Quick Stadium towers over a new turf field (installed in 2005) designed with the flexibility in size to accommodate football, soccer, men’s lacrosse and track & field. Encircling the turf is an eight-lane, synthetic-surfaced, championship track, known as the George A. Hansell Jr. Track. The track, dedicated in 1984, is named for the former athletic director and coach. The mezzanine sports a Wall of Recognition, which features the dedication plaque and the names of over 400 alumni, faculty and friends so recognized for contributions to the stadium construction fundraising campaign. Of historical significance, the Wall of Recognition features three medallions removed from Memorial Stadium reading: “Pennsylvania Military College, 1926,” “Sound Mind in Sound Body” and “Dedicated to Youth.” Memorial Stadium, located behind Old Main, was the site of the University’s home football games for nearly 70 years. Widener fans, coaches and student-athletes share an enormous sense of pride in Quick Stadium, which provides one of the finest NCAA Division III facilities for players, press and spectators in the United States.

ADMINISTRATION
Jack Shafer • Director of Athletics Jack Shafer is in his sixth season as Widener’s director of athletics after serving the previous six as its assistant director. Shafer primarily is responsible for overseeing the school’s 20 sports and the overall growth of the department. As the director of athletics, Shafer has helped oversee upgrades to the Schwartz Center gym, pool and field house, an upgrade of various needs within the department and a greater community outreach among studentathletes. The Pride also took another major step toward reaching to the Chester community by seeing its men’s and women’s soccer teams play a regular-season game at PPL Park. Under Shafer’s watch, the Pride have had six named MAC ScholarAthletes of the Year for their sport, six tabbed Philadelphia Inquirer Performer of the Year for academic and athletic excellence, and 52 picked to the Philadelphia Inquirer Academic All-Area Teams. As assistant director of athletics, Shafer was responsible for overseeing all indoor sports, event management and facilities. He played a huge role in fundraising activities, including the school’s annual golf outing, and managing student involvement with the Special Olympics and Big Brothers-Big Sisters program.
Larissa Gillespie
Asst. Athletic Dir. Larissa Gillespie is in her eighth year as Widener’s assistant athletic director and senior woman administrator. In addition to her administrative duties at her alma mater, Gillespie is in her 12th year as the field hockey coach. She also coached the women’s lacrosse team from 2004-06. Gillespie owns a 113-76 record as field hockey coach, which in 2006 included a run to the ECAC Mid-Atlantic Tournament for the program’s first postseason appearance. Widener that year broke the school record for most victories (13-6) and notched double figures in wins for a school-best fourth straight season. One of Gillespie’s career highlights occurred September 21, 2006, when Widener upended Neumann for her 64th victory to make her the program’s winningest coach. During her time as field hockey coach, 12 players have been named first team All-Commonwealth Conference and 21 have been tabbed second team. A standout player on Widener’s field hockey team as an undergraduate, Gillespie was second on the team in scoring during the 1996 and 1997 seasons. She closed her career with a then-school-record 16 goals along with seven assists for 39 points, which ranks fourth in school history. She also was a two-time honoree on the Middle Atlantic Conference Academic Honor Roll. Gillespie received a B.S. in Sport Management from Widener in 1998 and an MBA in 2000.
