NCAA GUIDELINES for EFFECTIVE SIDELINE CONTROL

The NCAA Football Rules Committee has adopted guidelines for m o re efficient and safer sideline control during collegiate football contests.

RULE I, Section 2, Article 3 states:

Limit lines shall be marked with 12-inch lines and at 24-inch intervals 12 feet outside the sidelines and the end lines, except in s tadiums where total field surface does not permit. In th ese stadiums, the limit lines shall not be less than s ix feet from the sidelines and end lin es. Limit lines shall be four inches in width. NO PERSON OUTSIDE THE TEAM AREA SHALL BE WITHIN THE LIMIT LIN ES.

Photographers must observe the following two rules:

(I) Each photographer shall wear a visible credential issued by the sports information director. 3

(2) Photographers working on the field may work on any part of the sideline outside the bench area and behind the end zone, OUTSIDE THE RESTRAINING AREA LIMIT LINES. No one is permitted in the bench area on the playing field , or in the rest ra ining area next to the sideline, ANY TIME after the competition begins, including during timeouts unless he has been issued a bench pass. Photographers only may work unrestricted on the playing field and in the bench area immediately after the end of the game.

Should any ques tions a r ise or you incur any problems, please seek assi s tance from any EKU Security P e rsonnel or Mr. Larry Bailey, University Photo g raph er. Failure to comply with the new NCAA rules could res ult in your bei ng asked to leave the field area.

Growth - in quantity and quality - has been the theme a t Eastern Kentu c k y University. The quantity speaks for itself. With an enro llment of more th a n 13 ,000 st udents , the University's student body has more than tripl e d s ince I 960. As a result, new dormitories and large , well-equipped academic structures have been built.

Dr. J. C. Pow e ll will be completing his seventh year as president of th e University in October. Powell, the school's seventh president, succeeded Dr. Robert R. Martin who served EKU in that position for 16¼ years.

At a 1978 Boa rd o f Regents meeting, Eastern was reorganized into nine college s and a graduate school. Five colleges - Appli ed Arts and T ec hnology, Bu s iness, Education, Law Enforcement and Allied Health and Nursing - remained intact.

Four n ew colleges were created, including Natural and Mathematical Sciences, S ocial and Behavioral Sciences , Arts and Humanities and Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Athletics.

The mas ter s degree is offered in seve ral fields as is the specialist degree. A joint doctoral program in education is sponsored in cooperation with the U niversity of Kentucky.

The physical plant has und e rgone building and renovation programs tot a ling more than$ 138 million since I 960. During this period every existing m ajor campus facility has been r e modeled or co mpletely r eco nstructed.

CONFERENCE AFFILIATIONS

In 1941, foresighted men had visions of an Ohio Valley Conference. Sportswriters speculated about the impending division of the Kentucky Intercollegiate Athletic Conference. Virtually all agreed it was just a matter of time until the division took place and a new athletic conference was formed.

Then the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor and America was plunged into World War II.

Seven years later, after the hostilities had ceased, a pre-war dream became a post-war reality. The "Big Five" of the K.I.A.C. withdrew to form the Ohio Valley Conference.

Making the move were Western Kentucky State College, Eastern Kentucky State College, Murray State College, Morehead State College and the University of Louisville. They were joined by Evansville College and, shortly thereafter, by Tennessee Tech and Marshall College.

Purpose of the 0. V.C., which was set forth in its constitution , is "to regulate, control and promote all th e recognized branches of intercollegiate athletics in institutions represented."

Through a gradual process, the Ohio Valley Conference was to become a league of Kentucky and Tennes see state colleges. Middle Tennessee State College joined the rolls in 1952, East Tennessee State University in 1957 and Austin Peay State College in the spring of 1962 They replaced Louisville, which became an independent in 1949, and Marshall and Evansville, which departed in 1952.

The University of Akron and Youngstown State University joined the OVC in I97980.

Eastern also competes against other OVC schools in a regular season schedule in women's basket ball and tournaments in tennis and volleyball. Championships are held also in cross country and outdoor track

Eastern ranks first in the Conference's alltime football standings with a 13 7-82- 7 wonlost record. The Colonels have won six regular season titles outright ('54, '67, '68, '74 , '76, and 1981) and shared one title in 1962

Eastern won the NCAA Divis ion I-AA national championship in 1979 and the NCAA Mideast Regional Championship in 1967. The Colonels finished as national runners up in the NCAA's I- AA Division in 1980 and 1981.

James Delany, a 34-year-old former NCAA investigator, is serving his fourth yea r as commissioner of the Ohio Valley Conference. He succeeded Bob Vanatta as the OVC's fourth commissioner.

The Succasunna, New Jersey, nativ e became the youngest commissioner to serve the conference. The other OVC commissioners prior to Vanatta were Arthur Guepe and Paul Dietzel.

Delany is a 1970 graduate of the University of North Carolina where he played basketball for coach Dean Smith'sTarheels from 1967-70 and served as co-captain on the 1969- 70 squad.

Following graduation, Delany entered the UNC Law School and served as an assistant coach under Smith. He received his law degree in 1973 before joining the NCAA staff.

ROY KIDD Head Coach

'And the beat goes on .. .'

Sonny and Cher's old tune from the late '60's co uld very well become Roy Kidd' s theme song as he embarks upon his 19th season at EKU this fall.

Just like the song implies, Kidd's and Eastern's 'beat' is setting new record s and going to national championship contests.

Kidd also was honored again in 198 1 as he was selected the National C oac h of the Year in I-AA for the second straight year and the OVC Coach of the Year. He was also recipient of The Lexington Herald's 1981 Kentucky Sportsman of the Year Award.

Noteworthy coaching achievements have become a rule of thumb for Kidd during the last four years. In 1978, he was credited with his 100th collegiate coaching victory and, of course, in 1979 he guided the Colonels to the Division I-AA national c hampion shi p . EK U finished l l-2 that latter year.

Then, in 1980, Kidd' s Eastern team came within 55 seconds of putting back-to back national championships together, winning IO games before losing to Boise State 31-29 on a fourth-down pass in the na tional title contest.

The 19 8 1 season saw Kidd, who ha s compiled a 133-55-6 record at EK U, take his Colonels to an unpr ecede nt ed third co nsecutive national title game and a school record 12-2 overall mark. T he Colonels. after defeating Delaware and Boise State, fell t o Idah o State, 34-23 , in the national finals.

During th ese past 18 years, Eastern has captured a nati o nal c hampion s hip , two nati o nal runnersup t rop hi es, five OVC championsh ips, had an unbeaten string of 15 games in the league and won the 1967 NCAA Mideast Regional Championship (covering more th an 100 teams in a IO-state area) by defeating Ball State 27-13 in the Grantland

Rice Bowl. The Colonels also start the 1982 season with a 25 game winning streak at their home stadium, Hanger Field.

Eastern has also been ranked in the top twenty in the nation by both wire service polls, having gone as high as No. I in 1979 and 1981.

Kidd's s uccess comes from a combination of demanding the ultimate in dedication and determination, yet being a coach who is respected by his players.

His ability to communicate with his players stems from a realisti c, matter-of-fac t attitude. He's genuinely concerned about each individual as a player and as a student.

He has a brilliant football mind and is a man who takes advantage o f most s ituati o ns and is not afraid to gamble. He is a n organizer who has surrounded himself with a very capable coaching staff.

All these ingred ie nts point to the fact that Roy Kidd is a winner. It all started for Kidd as a little leaguer in Corbin , Ky., and he continued on the plus side of the le dger as a high school athlete and then as a football and base ball star at Eastern

When he was a graduate assistant coach, Eastern went unbeaten and received an invitation to the Tangerine Bowl. Then he started coa c hing in high sc hool , building tiny Ri c hmond Ma d ison into a sta te football powerhouse. He had a 54--10-1 record , a 27game winning streak and 14 consecutive unscored-upon games. He was Kentu c ky Coach of the Year in 1961 when th e Purples were ranked No. I in the s tat e all season.

He we nt t o Morehead as an assistant coach in 1962 and hel ped guide the Eagles to their second winning season in 13 years and a s h are of the OVC championship.

Then it was back to Easte rn in 1963 where he served as an assistant for one year before tak ing over the head job.

The Colonels went 3-5-1 his first year, o ne of only tw o los ing seasons he ha s had while coaching They improved that to 5-3-1 the following year and Kidd was elected Coach of th e Year in the OVC.

Kidd is married to the former Susan Purcell of Ri chmond. They have three children: Marc, Kathy , and Ke ith.

A fine recruiting year s hould enable South Carolina State to offset the loss of 13 lettermen, a_!llong them JO starters.

In addition to having to find replacements for three of four starters in the defensive secondary, the Bulldogs will also need to fill a defensive end slot; however, the linebacker corps returns intact and reserves and recruits should help fill the void in the secondary.

Offensively, the Bulldogs will be without two of its top blockers and both wide receivers . The S .C. State backfield , led by All-American fullback Anthony Reed and former All-American Henry Odom, should be strong again. Reed rushed for 933 yards and eight TD's, while Odom accounted for 468 yards rushing and IO touchdowns.

Quarterback Desmond Gatson, who missed the last five games with a shoulder separation, completed 27-76 passes for 562 yards and five TD's and will return for his senior year.

For the first time in 44 years, the YSU Penguins will be playing their home games on "home" turf when dedication of the new Arnold D. Stambaugh Sports Complex and Stadium takes place this fall. And with that dedication comes a grueling and more challenging schedule than ever before .

The Penguins are coming off an outstanding 7-4-0 record in 1981 and a tie for second place in the OVC. All but five starters return for coach Bill Nardu zzi's team in 1982 including standout tailback Paris Wicks. Wicks rushed for more than 1, 300 yards and posted the most points in a si ng le game (32) in the NCAA I-AA stats last year.

The biggest competition could come at the quarterback spot where as many as five hopefuls will try their luck at winning a starting job. Last year's starter Jamie DeVore will have the inside track, but will be challenged by freshmen Mike Hall, Jon Karnuth and Ralph DePasco and returning veteran Mike Sloe.

Eastern leads the series, 6-4-0.

PROSPECTUS

Shortly after the 1981 Akron football season ended, head coach Jim Dennison was heard to say, "I believe the winning habit has returned." Dennison was referring to the Zips' four victories over the last five games of '81.

"Defensively, we return nine starters and feel we will be improved," said Dennison. "It is essential we find a couple of outside linebackers ." UA did, however, lose two-time All-American linebacker Brad Reese, the Zips' top tackler for four seasons

The key to an effective offense, as it has been for the last three seasons, will be finding the individual who can direct the Zip attack. Junior Ron Gliha is the top candidate but must recover from knee surgery. Also of concern is at wide receiver where UA lost both starters James White and Pat Snow and at tailback where the Zips will no longer have Dennis Brumfield who rushed for 1,041 yards in 198 I.

The series is tied, 3-3.

The No. 3 offensive team in the OVC will return senior tackles Charles Tucker, and Jim Kolodziej, senior guard Tommy Waller and sophomore tight end Sal Shields up front. R ecord-breakingjunior tailback "Fluid" Floyd Jones, who amassed 1,093 yards rushing for a brilliant 8.2 yards per carry, will attempt to improve on his No. 6 NCAA Division I-AA ranking and second spot in the OVC.

Sixteen seniors will head Donnelly's corps this season, most of whom were recruited in the head mentor's first year at MTSU. Among his returnees are four-All-OVC first team selections from last year -defensive end Dennis Mix, defensive tackle Emanuel Toles, free safety James Griffin, and placekicker Kelly Potter.

MTS U returns IO starters on defense and nine on offense for the '82 year. Eastern leads the series, 16-13-0.

Western, 6-5 overall in '81, has joined the Sun Belt Conference, which does not sponsor a football championship, and will now have to rely on its position in the NCAA Division I-AA poll to earn a post-season playoff berth.

Headlining a list of outstanding returnees are All-OVC standouts Paul Gray (who led the OVC last year in tackles) and John Newby (who led the OVC while setting a school record for pass receiving). Also, in the backfield, WKU returns quarterback Ralph Antone, who led the OVC in 1981 with,s1 .525 pass completion percentage while throwing for 1,356 yards. -

Strong safety Reginald Johnson, who led the 'Toppers with five interceptions last fall, and senior cornerback Davlin Mullen will help Gray on defense.

Murray State expects to field a serious OVC contender in football this fall. "Yes, we feel we're going to be in the championship chase this season," says second-year head coach Frank Beamer.

Beamer will enter 1982 with 38 lettermen, including 13 starters from last year's 8-3 team that shared second place in the OVC standings. Also back are four defensive regulars who were redshirted last year after missing all or most of the season with injuries.

"Instant" Winston Ford, who served the past two years as an understudy to Gino Gibbs, should get the opportunity to test his cannon-like arm at quarterback in 1982. ¥arcus Moss and Ellery Moreland emerged as the top tailback candidates from the spring.

All-American end Glenn Jones is healthy once again after missing last year with an injury as the Racer defense yielded but six TD's rushing in I 981. Eastern leads the series, 20-16-4.

"I have more eagerness about the upcoming season than at any time in the last four years. We will be equipped to compete with almost anyone on our schedule, and I haven't felt that way since 1977," said TTU coach Don Wade.

With a strong finish which netted a 6-5 record and a fourth-place tie in the OVC race last year, a sound winter workout program, and the healthy return of highly experienced offensive and defensive units, Wade' s enthusiasm is easily understandable.

Returning to call signals for TTU is junior Tony Costantine, who finished the I 98 I season as the second-leading passer in the OVC with 1,321 yards and 11 TD's. The Tech running game will center around senior Reggie Bazel, whom Wade called the best all-purpose back in the OVC.

The interior defensive line was the most surprising area of play for TTU last year with noseguard Manny Michel leading the way with 82 tackles. Eastern leads the series, 24-14-1.

Experience will be the key to MSU Football Coach Steve Loney's hopes of reversing the Eagles' disappointing season a year ago. MSU claimed only one victory in 10 outings last season, but Loney will look to the experience of 39 returning lettermen, including 23 seniors, to reverse last season's outcome.

Senior linebacker Danny Gooch heads the list of 21 returning defensive lettermen. The 5-11, 223-pounder established four MSU defensive records as a sophomore and was credited with 50 tackles in just four games last season before his season was shortened by a knee injury .

Loney will have three talented quarterbacks to choose from in senior Don Reeves, sophomore Mike Hanlin and senior Jeff Richards. Reeves led the OVC in passing last season, completing 87-167 passes for 990 yards in nine games.

MSU returns all but one regular in the offensive line. Junior David Thurkill will anchor the tight end spot with tackle Steve Pytel, guard Mike Ealey and center Dean Copeland providing leadership in the line . Eastern leads the series, 33-15-4.

The Trail to the I-AA Title Game

1 EKU South Carolina State

The EK U Colonels kept their Hanger Field winning streak alive at 19 games by winning the 1981 opener against a highly -touted South Carolina State team, 26-0. Eastern scored in every quarter and made the most of four Bulldog turnovers to shutout the team that was ranked No. I in Division I-AA most of the 1980 season.

Fullback Nicky Yeast led the Colonels' offensive charge with 59 yards rushing in I 0 carries, including a 31-yard scamper on a faked-punt play. Eastern's defense, which ended the ' 81 year as the OVC's leading d efensive team, held a potent S.C. State team to just 59 yards of rushing and pass ing each.

Eastern initiat e d the Youngstown State University Penguins into the Ohio Valley Conference with a 26 - 6 defeat in Youngstown , Ohio. Tailback Ter e nce Thompson stepped to the front in this game, relieving an injured Tony Braxton , and responded with 156 yard s in 21 carries, including an 80-yard TD run to put the gam e out of reach.

Other highlights had EK U tight e nd Tron Armstrong catching four passes for 72 yard s and the Colonel defe ns e holding YSU star runner, Paris Wi c ks, to just 74 yard s in 20 carries.

3 Navy EKU

Before a white-uniform clad crowd of some 16 ,379, East e rn suffered its only loss of the regular season , a 24-0 decision to Nav y . The game, which was t e levised live back to Ke ntucky by WKYT-TV in Lexington, saw Eastern squander five first half fumbles by the Midshipme n into no point s and a 7-0 d e ficit at halftime.

Led by reserve tailback Napoleon McCallum (24-87-1), Navy controlled the second half and became the first te am to shutout Eastern since 1973. Thompson led Eastern's offense with 67 yards rushing in 18 carnes.

4 EKU Akron

Eastern took out its frustration s of the Saturday before in trouncing Akron's Zips, 37-0, starting a I 0-game winning streak for the Colonels in 1981.

1982 PROSPECTUS

Repeating for the third straight year as the Kentucky Women's lntercolJegiate Conference Division I champion, Eastern' s field hockey team finished 1981 with an impressive 12-5-4record and a third place finish in AIA W Region II. The team posted Division I victories over Miami (Ohio), Southern Illinois-Carbondale, Duke and Louisville, as welJ as wins over Big Ten rivals, Ohio State, Purdue and Indiana.

While outscoring their opponents 2-1, Eastern was shut out only once in 21 games, "Their outstanding success with the tough 1981 schedule is a credit to the team's confidence and their abilities," said EKU head coach Lynne Harvel.

With the return of eight starters (three of whom attended "B" camp in 1981), the 1982 Eastern squad should be exceptionalJy strong EK U's link positions, for the fourth straight year, will be filJed by Carole Ann Lankford and Lisa Loran, who both serve as the backbone of Eastern's solid defense and as the spark for the high scoring attack. Veteran goalkeeper Suzanne Hastings will continue to direct the defense, while Wilma Howard, Robin Forhecz and Julie Theiler will again lead Eastern's welJ-balanced attack - an attack which was shut out only once in 21 games in 1981.

Sophomores Theresa Powell and Mary Gavin will be the veterans of th e backfield - a young defense which will be rounded out by the addition of freshmen recruits Mary Beth Brown, Monica Storz and Siobhan Devlin. Devlin will be challenging for the top goalkeeping spot. Vick i Woodard, Terri Johnson, Kathleen Boughton and Linda Ransd ell will continue to bring the team depth as they work toward earning starting spots.

"With this exceptionally talented group of returning seniors, this year's squad should be our strongest ever," said Harvel. "A combination of experience, depth and teamwork will characterize this team. The biggest concern will be the young defensive unit, but with the leadership of senior goalkeeper Hastings, we expect this unit to solidify early in the season. Our experienced, power-packed, high-scoring attack should balance out the early season's lack of experience on the part of our defense We are facing a challenging schedule but are optimistic about our chances because of the team's poise and confidence it has shown in recent seasons."

1982 PROSPECTUS

The challenge of 1982 will be to improve on its previous season's performance of a 36-11 record. Eight upperclassmen will form the nucleus for that effort with contributions also coming from two talented sophomores, Lori Courtney and C har Gillespie. An unt es ted talented group of new recruits will round out the 1982-83 Colonel squad.

Eastern has student athletes from seven different states as well as Canada. The blending of differe nt playing styles, plus the strength of communication and respect for individual experiences will be instrumental to the success of the tea m.

The schedule has been planned with the objective of advancing to yet another leve l of competitive competence. It will test the 1982 squad in every phase of the season with a hopefu l final outcome of developing a team that will be competitive in post-season championship play. T he 1982 Colonel squad will provide the 16th action-filled year of volleyball at EKU.

TOP RETURNING PLAYERS

Deanne Madden - has shown leade rship in the middle bloc king position which should key the EK U defensive strength. Her poise and maturity and ability to demoralize the opponent with a blistering attack or a stuff block makes Dea nne an exciting competitor.

Lori Duncan - adds a critical aspect to the team's tempo with her offensive and defensive quickness. Her leaders hip skills are demonstrated on the court by her intelligent play and amazing ability to concentrate.

Char Gillespie - adds an element of steadiness to the team resulting in good play during critical moments. Her effectiveness is found in he r quick competitiveness and efforts

Ramona McGovern - gets the team through the a nnoying, sticky points of the co mpetition with her competitiveness and consistent efforts. Her co ncern for all members of the team adds t o the cohesiveness so essential to the total effort.

Joan Messerknecht - is a poised and intelligent competitor with lots of court savvy. He r support of he r tea mmat es during the com petit ive effort makes J oan a valued team member.

1982 PROSPECTUS

Losing five players to graduation means th e 1982-83 acade mi c year wi ll be a rebuilding year for the netters. Assisting th a t project will be three in com in g freshmen - Debbie G ue nther, C hri s Hulbauer and Jeannie Wa ldron - which promise additional depth in doubles , as well as s in gles. All of the se young players have ha d tournament experience and good high sch ool records. Hulbaue r was rank ed as high as 36th in the U n ited S t a t es this pas t summer.

The fall sched ule , abbrev iated in co mpar ison to previous yea r s, will provide the means of gaining individua l and team experience prior to th e sp ring seaso n and th e Ohio Valley Confere nce Tournament, which has become th e annua l highlight compet iti ve ly.
