2012 Appalachian State FOOTBALL SOUTHERN CONFERENCE tions including Clemson, Duke, Maryland, North Carolina, North Carolina State, South Carolina, Virginia, VMI, Virginia Tech and Washington & Lee. The second major shift occurred some 20 years later. By 1952, the Southern Conference included 17 colleges and universities. Another split occurred when seven schools including Clemson, Duke, Maryland, North Carolina, North Carolina State, South Carolina and Wake Forest departed to form the Atlantic Coast Conference which began play in 1953. The revamped Southern Conference included members The Citadel, Davidson, Furman, George Washington, Richmond, VMI, Virginia Tech, Washington & Lee, West Virginia and William & Mary. Today, the league continues to thrive with a membership that includes 12 institutions and a footprint that spans five states: Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Alabama and Georgia. Current league members are Appalachian State, College of Charleston, The Citadel, Davidson, Elon, Furman, Georgia Southern, UNC Greensboro, Samford, Chattanooga, Western Carolina and Wofford. Leadership ohn Iamarino was officially named commissioner of the conference on January 2, 2006. Iamarino has promoted the Southern Conference through an ambitious agenda which has improved competition, upgraded compliance-related matters, launched the conference’s Hall of Fame and increased the marketing and brand awareness of the conference and its member institutions. The Southern Conference named its first commissioner in December 1950. Duke head football coach Wallace Wade made the transition from Blue Devil football coach to athletics administration as the first person at the helm of the conference. Lloyd Jordan replaced Wade as the commissioner in 1960 and served a 14-year term until Ken Germann became the league head in 1974. Germann was the commissioner for 13 years and orchestrated the league’s expansion to include women’s athletics. In 1987, he was succeeded by Dave Hart who spearheaded the transfer of the league office from Charlotte, N.C., to Asheville, N.C. Wright Waters succeeded Hart upon his retirement in 1991. Under Waters’ leadership, the Southern Conference expanded to 12 members, added three women’s sports and posted record revenue from the basketball tournament. Waters, who is currently the commissioner of the Sun Belt Conference, was followed by Alfred B. White in 1998. White, a veteran member of the NCAA office, introduced the current conference logo and elevated the conference’s commitment to marketing and development of corporate partners. Danny Morrison headed the conference from 2001-2005 and orchestrated the league’s move from Asheville, N.C., to Spartanburg, S.C. Under Morrison’s leadership, the conference increased its marketing and promotional efforts.

Championship History he first Southern Conference Championship was the league basketball tournament held in Atlanta in 1922. The North Carolina Tar Heels won the tournament to become the first recognized league champion in any sport. The Southern Conference Tournament remains the oldest of its kind in college basketball. Commissioner Germann spearheaded the Southern Conference’s expansion to include women’s athletics during the 1983-84 season. That year, league championships were held in volleyball, basketball and tennis. Cross country joined the mix in 1985 and the league began holding indoor and outdoor track championships in 1988. Most recently, the conference instituted golf and softball championships in the spring of 1994 and added soccer in the fall of 1994. The Germann Cup, named in honor of the former commissioner, annually recognizes the top women’s athletics programs in the conference. From its humble beginnings, women’s athletics have become an integral part of the Southern Conference and its success. The Southern Conference declares champions in 10 men’s sports football, soccer, cross country, basketball, indoor track and field, outdoor track and field, wrestling, baseball, tennis and golf - and nine women’s sports - soccer, volleyball, cross country, basketball, indoor track and field, outdoor track & field, tennis, golf and softball.

Membership History n Feb. 25, 1921, representatives from 14 of the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association’s (SIAA) 30 members met at Atlanta’s Piedmont Hotel to establish the Southern Intercollegiate Conference. On hand at the inaugural meeting were officials from Alabama, Alabama Polytechnic Institute (Auburn), Clemson, Georgia, Georgia School of Technology (Georgia Tech), Kentucky, Maryland, Mississippi A&M (Mississippi State), North Carolina, North Carolina State, Tennessee, Virginia, Virginia Polytechnic Institute (Virginia Tech) and Washington & Lee. Dr. S.V. Sanford of Georgia was chosen as acting chairman and N.W. Dougherty of Tennessee was named secretary. The decision to form a new athletic conference was motivated by the desire to have a workable number of conference games for each league member. With 30 schools in the SIAA by the early 1920s, it was impossible to play every school at least once during the regular season and many schools went several years between playing some conference members. In addition, in 1920, the SIAA voted down proposed rules that an athlete must be in a college a year before playing on its teams and refused to abolish a rule permitting athletes to play summer baseball for money. Play began in the fall of 1921 and a year later, six more schools joined the fledgling league including Tulane (which had attended the inaugural meeting but had elected not to join), Florida, Louisiana (LSU), Mississippi, South Carolina and Vanderbilt. VMI joined in 1925 and Duke was added in 1929. By the 1930s, membership in the Southern Conference had reached 23 schools. C.P. “Sally” Miles of Virginia Tech, president of the Southern Conference, called the annual league meeting to order on Dec. 9, 1932 at the Farragut Hotel in Knoxville, Tenn. Georgia’s Dr. Sanford announced that 13 institutions west and south of the Appalachian Mountains were reorganizing as the Southeastern Conference. Members of the new league included Alabama, Alabama Polytechnic Institute, Florida, Georgia, Georgia School of Technology, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Mississippi A&M, University of the South, Tennessee, Tulane and Vanderbilt. According to the minutes of the meeting, Dr. Sanford stated that the division was made along geographical lines. Florida’s Dr. J.J. Tigert, acting as spokesman for the withdrawing group, regretted the move but believed it was necessary as the Southern Conference had grown too large. The resignations were accepted and the withdrawing schools formed the new league which began play in 1932. The Southern Conference continued with membership of 10 institu-

INTRODUCTION

he Southern Conference, which is in its 92nd season of intercollegiate competition in 2012-13, is a national leader in emphasizing the development of the student-athlete and in helping to build lifelong leaders and role models. The Southern Conference has been on the forefront of innovation and originality in developing creative solutions to address issues facing intercollegiate athletics. From establishing the first conference basketball tournament (1921), tackling the issue of freshmen eligibility (1922), developing women’s championships (1984), to becoming the first conference to install the three-point goal in basketball (1980), the Southern Conference has been a pioneer. The Southern Conference is the nation’s fifth-oldest NCAA Division I collegiate athletic association. Only the Big Ten (1896), the Missouri Valley (1907), the Pacific 12 (1915) and the Southwestern Athletic (1920) conferences are older in terms of origination. Academic excellence has been a major part of the Southern Conference’s tradition. Hundreds of Southern Conference student-athletes have been recognized on ESPN The Magazine/CoSIDA Academic All-America and all-district teams. A total of 19 Rhodes Scholarship winners have been selected from conference institutions. The conference currently consists of 12 members in five states throughout the Southeast and sponsors 19 varsity sports and championships that produce participants for NCAA Division I Championships. The Southern Conference offices are located in the historic Beaumont Mill in Spartanburg, S.C. A textile mill that was in operation from 1880 until 1999, Beaumont Mill was renovated in 2004 and today offers the league first class meeting areas and offices as well as a spacious library for storage of the conference’s historical documents.

SOUTHERN CONFERENCE Southern Conference Members

Football he Southern Conference has also excelled as the premier Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) conference. Southern Conference member Appalachian State won three consecutive FCS titles from 2005-07, becoming the first team to do so. The league boasts more than 250 players who have garnered All-America recognition and numerous national player or coach of the year awards. The conference has had at least one team in the Top 10 of the final FCS poll for 25-consecutive years with at least two teams finishing in the Top 20 in every season since 1982. The conference has placed multiple representatives in the FCS Playoffs in 23-of-27 seasons, with 16 Championship Game appearances and eight national titles. The Southern Conference has had at least one team reach the semifinals in 10 of the last 12 years and in 16 of the last 19 seasons. In 2007, Appalachian State became the first FCS team to defeat a nationally-ranked Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) team when the Mountaineers defeated No. 5-ranked Michigan, 34-32, on Sept. 1 before a sellout crowd at Michigan Stadium. Prior to the conference’s reclassification in 1981, Southern Conference football teams appeared in a total of 36 bowl games, posting a record of 16-18-2. From 1925-30, league schools won five football national championships in a six year span. There are nearly 40 former Southern Conference players in the College Football Hall of Fame. One of the most recognizable of these names is former North Carolina running back Charlie “Choo Choo” Justice who helped guide North Carolina to three bowl appearances. He was a first team All-America selection and Heisman Trophy runner-up in 1948 and 1949. In 1949, Justice earned first team all-conference honors for the fourth consecutive season, becoming the first player in league history to achieve that feat. He was a member of the league’s inaugural Hall of Fame Class in 2009. Another of the league’s football products enshrined in the College Football Hall of Fame is Sam Huff of West Virginia. Huff was a three-year starter on both the offensive and defensive lines for the Mountaineers. In 1955, Huff earned first team All-America honors on the field and was a first team Academic All-America for his work in the classroom. He played 12 seasons in the National Football League for the New York Giants and the Washington Redskins. A member of the conference’s first Hall of Fame class, he was a five-time All-Pro defensive lineman and is also a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. In recent years, the Southern Conference has continued to produce outstanding student-athletes. In 2009, Appalachian State’s Armanti Edwards became the first two-time winner in the 23-year history of the the Walter Payton Award, which presented annually to the Football Championship Subdivision’s most outstanding offensive player. Other SoCon Payton Award winners include Georgia Southern’s Adrian Peterson (1999), Furman’s Louis Ivory (2000) and GSU’s Jayson Foster (2007). Appalachian State also boasts the only two-time winner of the Buck Buchanan Award, given to Football Championship Subdivision’s top defensive player each year, in Dexter Coakley, who won the first two Buchanan Awards in 1995 and ‘96 before enjoying a Pro Bowl career with the Dallas Cowboys. Terrell Owens went from catching passes at Chattanooga to a stellar NFL career. Western Carolina’s David Patten and Appalachian State’s Matt Stevens were both members of the New England Patriots Super Bowl Champion team in 2002 and Patten also earned Super Bowl rings with the Patriots in 2004 and ’05. In April, Appalachian State’s Brian Quick was the first Football Championship Subdivision player chosen in the 2012 NFL Draft when the St. Louis Rams selected him with the first pick of the second round (No. 33 overall).

APPALACHIAN STATE WINS SEVENTH-STRAIGHT COMMISSIONER’S CUP Appalachian State University claimed its seventh-straight Southern Conference Commissioner’s Cup for excellence in men’s athletics in 2011-12. The Mountaineers, who have claimed the Cup in 20 of the past 21 years, have now earned the award a total of 32 times. No other conference school has won the Commissioner’s Cup more than five times since its inception in 1969-70 and no current SoCon member besides ASU has claimed it more than once. Thanks to SoCon championships in three of 10 men’s sports (baseball, men’s outdoor track and field and wrestling), the Apps cruised to the Commissioner’s Cup title by finishing a whopping 27.5 points ahead of second-place Samford (66.5 points). Appalachian’s margin of victory in the Commissioner’s Cup standings marks the largest gap since ASU finished 29 points ahead of East Tennessee State and Furman during the 2002-03 season. Appalachian State also finished just three points behind College of Charleston in the Germann Cup standings, awarded for excellence in women’s athletics. The Mountaineers finished with 78.5 points on the women’s side to claim third-place behind CofC (81.5) and Samford (80.5).

2012 Appalachian State FOOTBALL SEASON PREVIEW

SEASON OUTLOOK

SEASON PREVIEW

Despite not making his first-career start until midway through the season, Jamal Jackson put together one of the finest campaigns for a quarterback in Appalachian State history last year, becoming the first sophomore in program history to pass for 2,000 yards in a season and setting a school record by amassing at least 250 yards of total offense in seven-straight games.

Satterfield back into the fold as Appalachian State’s assistant head coach and offensive coordinator. In his first stint on the Appalachian staff (1998-2008), Satterfield was an integral part of ASU’s transition from a power-I to a spread offense in 2004 and the five record-setting offensive campaigns that followed. With the former all-conference quarterback serving as the Mountaineers’ primary play-caller, Appalachian boasted one of college football’s most explosive offenses from 2004-08, highlighted by an explosive 2007 campaign when ASU led the nation with a school-record 488.3 yards of total offense per game. Satterfield leads an entirely new offensive coaching staff at Appalachian, which will benefit from five returning starters. Headlining the returning starters is junior quarterback Jamal Jackson, who threw for 2,001 yards and 15 touchdowns last season despite not seizing the starting role until

3-TIME NATIONAL CHAMPIONS

midway through the campaign. Continuing a long line of versatile signal-callers at ASU, Jackson also led the Apps with seven rushing touchdowns a season ago. Jackson will have two returning starters to target in wide receivers Andrew Peacock and Tony Washington. The junior duo has a large task in trying to make up for the production lost due to the departure of two-time all-American and second-round NFL Draft pick Brian Quick but have the experience and talent to meet the challenge after combining to start 24 games and catching 80 passes for 919 yards and five touchdowns a season ago. Among the many explosive newcomers in the fold at wideout, redshirt freshman Sean Price stood out the most during spring drills. The 6-5, 210-pounder has drawn comparisons to Quick for his size, speed, leaping ability and terrific hands. Senior Jonathan Shively and redshirt 11-TIME SoCon CHAMPIONS

After an offseason fraught with change, Appalachian State football is poised to make a run at returning to the pinnacle of the Southern Conference and NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision in 2012. An 8-4 record and seventh-straight NCAA Division I Championship appearance would be cause for elation for most collegefootball programs but having a six-year run of conference championships and failing to win a postseason game for the first time since 2004 has brought about a renewed sense of determination around Kidd Brewer Stadium since Appalachian dropped a 3412 decision to Maine in the second round of the playoffs last December. The most visible change in the Mountaineer program is the addition of seven new assistant coaches. Highlighting the staff turnover, 24th-year head coach Jerry Moore brought longtime assistant Scott

Andrew Peacock is Appalachian’s top returning receiver with 48 receptions for 564 yards as a sophomore last season. The Mountaineers’ wideouts will attempt to replace the production lost by the departure of the school’s all-time leading receiver and second-round NFL Draft pick Brian Quick.

freshmen Bobo Beathard and Simms McElfresh are also in the mix for significant snaps at receiver this fall. The Mountaineers also lost a key cog to their offensive attack over the past three years with the graduation of running back Travaris Cadet. However, the Apps feature a plethora of backs that will compete to make up for the 651 rushing yards and 333 receiving yards that Cadet provided in 2011. The first in line to grab the starting role is senior Steven Miller. Miller was the Mountaineers’ second-leading rusher last season with 380 yards on just 76 carries, good for an impressive five yards per rush. Despite sitting out much of the spring with a shoulder injury, Miller emerged as the leader of a stout group of running backs that could be key contributors this year, which also includes senior Rod Chisholm, junior Michael Frazier and true freshman 3-TIME NATIONAL CHAMPIONS

Tysean Holloway. Paving the way for Appalachian’s backs will be perhaps the most physically imposing group of offensive linemen in school history. The 10 linemen that enter fall practice on the ASU two-deep average 6-feet, 3-inches and 295 pounds and feature four players that saw significant playing time up front a year ago in junior Ian Barnard and sophomores Alex Acey, Graham Fisher and Kendall Lamm. All four are in the mix for starting roles this season, as are 6-6, 315-pound junior tackle Regan Dufort and redshirt freshman guard Shaq Counts. Another key loss that the Mountaineers must find a replacement for is at tight end, where four-time all-conference honoree Ben Jorden will not be the starter for the first time since 2007. Two relatively inexperienced players battled throughout spring drills for the right to replace Jorden — sophomore Drew Bailey and junior Zac 22

Baker. Also in the mix at tight end is Josh Anding, a 6-5, 250-pound junior transfer from Navarro College in Texas. Change is also evident on the defensive side of the ball, where coordinator Dale Jones welcomes two new assistant coaches to the mix. However, the transition may be a bit easier for Jones’ staff newcomers as the Mountaineers return a talent-laden group of nine returning starters on defense. Headlining the defensive returnees is perhaps the nation’s most talented and experienced group of linebackers in seniors Jeremy Kimbrough, Brandon Grier and John Rizor. Kimbrough, one of two returning allAmericans on the Appalachian defense, led the Mountaineers with 105 tackles, 12 tackles for loss and four sacks from his middle linebacker position last season. Right behind Kimbrough was Grier, who made 97 stops, including 10.5 behind the 11-TIME SoCon CHAMPIONS

third on the team with 79 tackles last season to go along with two interceptions and three pass break-ups. He’ll be joined at safety by junior Patrick Blalock, a former walk-on who has made six starts in his first two seasons in Black and Gold and has yet to reach his full potential due to being hampered by injuries throughout his young career. Junior Jamill Lott and redshirt freshman Henry Barnes are also in the mix at safety while sophomore Doug Middleton, a freshman all-American last season, will be a pivotal contributor as the “star” defensive back in nickel packages. Up front, the Mountaineers return two of the nation’s best young defensive ends in sophomores Ronald Blair and Deuce Robinson. Both grabbed starting roles as true freshmen a year ago and excelled to the tune of 56 tackles, 15 tackles for loss, 5.5 sacks, five quarterback hurries and a

3-TIME NATIONAL CHAMPIONS

pair of forced fumbles combined. Blair headlined the duo with 40 stops, including 11.5 behind the line of scrimmage, en route to freshman all-America honors. The only real void in the defense is at nose tackle, where ASU lost two-year starter Dan Wylie. However, the coaching staff is confident that redshirt freshmen Thomas Bronson and Stephen Burns are up to the task of filling the large shoes left behind by the graduation of Wylie and fellow 300-pounders Chris Aiken and Gordy Witte, Jr. Appalachian also returns three specialists in all-Southern Conference punter Sam Martin, place kicker Drew Stewart and holder Logan Hallock, giving the Mountaineers a whopping 17 returning starters in all.

Playing mainly in the hybrid bandit role in Appalachian’s 3-4 defense a year ago, Rizor ranked fourth on the squad with 65 tackles and tied Kimbrough for the team lead with four sacks. The ‘backers will play in front of a secondary that is nearly as experienced and perhaps just as talented. Headlining three returning starters in the defensive backfield is another all-American in senior cornerback Demetrius McCray, who led Appalachian with five interceptions and broke up nine more passes in 2011. The Mountaineers also return the starter opposite McCray in junior Rodger Walker, who had four interceptions a season ago but is being pushed for the starting role by sophomore Joel Ross. At safety, senior Troy Sanders returns for his third year as a starter. Sanders ranked

ries throughout the campaign, is expected to handle the Mountaineers’ punting and kickoff duties in 2012. Martin will also compete with Stewart for field goal and PAT duties. Stewart emerged as Appalachian’s place kicker after the mounting injuries began to diminish Martin’s effectiveness at the position midway through the season and was impressive, making 8-of-10 field goals over the final six weeks of the campaign. The duo is a study in contrasting strengths, as Martin possesses the stronger leg but Stewart has displayed more accuracy since transferring from Marshall prior to last season. Waiting for the Apps, however, is perhaps the most challenging regular-season schedule in program history. The slate begins with ASU’s second trip to longtime in-state rival East Carolina in four years. The last time Appalachian invaded Greenville, thousands of Mountaineer fans nearly saw ASU 3-TIME NATIONAL CHAMPIONS

come back from a 22-point fourth-quarter deficit before dropping a 29-24 nail-biter at the hands of Conference USA’s Pirates. The next week, Appalachian opens the home portion of its schedule with one of the most anticipated non-conference matchups in FCS history when Montana makes its first-ever visit to Kidd Brewer Stadium. Perhaps the most recognizable and decorated programs in Division I FCS, Appalachian and Montana are the nation’s winningest FCS programs since 2005 and have combined for five national championships since 1995 (UM in 1995 and 2001 and ASU in 2005, ‘06 and ‘07). The Mountaineers and Grizzlies have also made 10 championship-game appearances and earned 40 NCAA Division I FCS/I-AA playoff berths between them. The rest of the Mountaineers’ home slate includes a non-conference battle versus Coastal Carolina and Southern Conference 24

duels versus The Citadel, Elon, Wofford and Furman, with Appalachian looking to avenge 2011 losses against the latter two. The Apps will also travel for SoCon games at Chattanooga, Samford, Western Carolina and Georgia Southern. If the ASU-Montana contest is the nation’s most anticipated non-conference matchup of 2012, the Mountaineers’ game at Georgia Southern could be the most anticipated conference brawl of the season. Last year, Appalachian handed No. 1-ranked GSU a 24-17 defeat at Kidd Brewer Stadium but the Eagles went on to win the SoCon championship, snapping the Apps’ six-year reign atop the league.

onship. However, Stevens suffered a year-ending injury late in the regular season and Appalachian State’s promising campaign came to an end when it stumbled against Stephen F. Austin in the second round of the playoffs. Appalachian missed the postseason each of the next two years, but responded with a run of five-straight playoff appearances from 1998-2002. The stretch was highlighted by Moore’s third SoCon title in 1999 and an unlikely run to the 2000 national semifinals as the No. 13 seed in the 16-team field. Another two-year absence followed the five-year string of postseason appearances but, like the playoff-less 1996 and ‘97 seasons, the disappointing campaigns in 2003 and ‘04 have been followed by the most successful stretch in Appalachian’s and Moore’s storied gridiron histories. Altogether, Moore has coached 65 players that have earned all-America recognition a total of 95 times over the course of his 23 years at Appalachian State. Moore is no stranger to individual awards himself, as he is a three-time American Football Coaches Association National Coach of the Year (2005, 2006, 2007) and the only Division I (FCS or FBS) mentor in the 75-year history of the award to win it three years in a row. He also won the 2006 Eddie Robinson Award (National Coach of the Year) from The Sports Network, is a six-time AFCA Regional Coach of the Year (1994, 1995, 2005, 2006, 2008, 2009) and record eight-time SoCon Coach of the Year (1991, 1994, 1995, 2005, 2006, 2008, 2009, 2010). In 2009, he was named the Liberty Mutual FCS Coach of the Year, an award that included $50,000 for Moore’s favorite charities and $20,000 for the Appalachian State Alumni Association scholarship fund. In addition to his nearly quarter-centurylong tenure at Appalachian, Moore has served as head coach at North Texas (1979-80) and Texas Tech (1981-85) and spent 15 seasons on the staffs of legendary mentors Hayden Fry, Tom Osborne

and Ken Hatfield at SMU (1965-72), Nebraska (1973-78) and Arkansas (1988). Moore began his coaching career with four seasons as an assistant at Corsicana H.S. in Texas (1961-64). He also enjoyed a trip to Honolulu, Hawaii in 2006 to serve as an assistant coach in the Hula Bowl all-star game. Prior to embarking on his legendary coaching career, Moore made his mark as one of the nation’s premier players at Baylor from 1958-60. He ranked among the nation’s top 10 in receptions while serving as a team captain for the 11thranked Bears as a senior and graduated from BU with a bachelor’s degree in finance and economics in 1961. A native of Bonham, Texas, Moore was an all-state performer on the gridiron and earned 14 varsity letters in four sports at Bonham H.S. He is a member of the Bonham Athletics Hall of Fame. Bonham honored one of its most prominent sons when it declared Feb. 18, 2008, to be “Jerry Moore Day” in the town of 9,900 located 75 miles northeast of Dallas. An active and well-respected member of the American Football Coaches Association, Moore is also active in various church and civic groups. His sense of community is most evident in his “never say no” philosophy with regards to the numerous speaking engagements that he is asked to participate in. As many as five nights a week, Moore travels across the Carolinas, the Southeast and the nation to appear at as many of the banquets, clinics and other engagements that he was asked to speak at as possible. A devoted family man, Moore is married to the former Margaret Starnes, also a Baylor alum. They have three children: Chris, Scott and Elizabeth, and six grandchildren. His grandson, Trey Kavanaugh, is a redshirt freshman wide receiver for the Mountaineers.

Scott Satterfield, who was part of three national championships and six Southern Conference titles as a player and coach at Appalachian State, returns to Appalachian this season as assistant head coach, offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach. Satterfield, who spent 15 seasons at ASU as a player (1992-95) and coach (19982008), returns after three years away from his alma mater. He left Appalachian to be the passing game coordinator and quarterbacks coach at Toledo in 2009 before spending the last two seasons as the offensive coordinator at Florida International. He is the first coach to hold the title of assistant head coach in Moore’s 24 years at Appalachian and the Mountaineers’ first official offensive coordinator since Rob Best held the title from 1989-2002. In Satterfield’s only season at Toledo, the Rockets ranked 20th nationally in passing (278.5 yards per game) and 14th in total offense (438.3 ypg), averages that were 89 and 104 yards better than the season prior to his arrival. In two seasons at Florida International, Satterfield helped lead the Golden Panthers to the first two bowl appearances in school history, including a victory over Toledo in the 2010 Little Caesars Bowl. After going 3-9 and averaging 321 yards of offense the year prior to his arrival, FIU won 15 games and averaged 380 yards in Satterfield’s two seasons as offensive coordinator. Prior to his three seasons in the NCAA Division I FBS ranks, Satterfield spent the first 11 seasons of his coaching career at Appalachian, mentoring the Mountaineers’ wide receivers (1998), running backs (1999-2002) and quarterbacks (2003-08). He was an integral part of ASU’s transition from a power-I to a spread offense in 2004 and the five record-setting offensive campaigns that followed. With Satterfield serving as the Mountaineers’ primary play-caller, Appalachian ranked among the nation’s top 20 in the five major offensive statistical categories (scoring, rushing, passing, passing efficiency and total offense) 17 out of a possible 25 times from 2004-08, highlighted by an explosive 2007 campaign when ASU led the nation with a school-record 488.3 yards of total offense per game. As Appalachian’s quarterbacks coach, Satterfield also oversaw the development of the most prolific signal-callers in school history — Richie Williams and Armanti Edwards, coaching both to all-America recognition and being Edwards’ mentor for the first of his back-to-back Walter Payton Awards (NCAA Division I FCS Player of the Year in 2008). Prior to coaching the Mountaineers’ quarterbacks, Satterfield also mentored a 1,000-yard rusher (Jimmy Watkins — 2001) and the 11th-leading rusher in school history (Jerry Beard — 2000-02). As a player at ASU, Satterfield made 27 starts at quarterback from 1992-95. He earned first-team all-conference recognition as a senior in 1995 after passing for 1,461 yards and rushing for 649 more to help lead the Mountaineers to the only undefeated, untied regular season in school history (11-0) and a 12-1 final record. Satterfield is married to the former Beth Burleson, who, as Appalachian’s women’s track and field MVP in 1995, won SoCon titles in the 55-meter and 400-meter hurdles and was a member of ASU’s conference-championship 4x400-meter relay team. The couple has two sons (Bryce and Isaac) and a daughter (Alli).

Jones Dale Jones is in his 17th year at Appalachian State and his third season as the program’s defensive coordinator. He also serves as inside linebackers coach. Jones came to Appalachian in 1996 as the team’s defensive line coach and specialteams coordinator before moving to work with the linebackers in 2005. He was promoted to defensive coordinator in 2010 and in his two seasons at the helm of the Mountaineer defense, Appalachian has ranked among the top half of the Southern Conference in scoring and total defense both years. Last season, Appalachian topped the SoCon in interceptions and red-zone defense while in 2011, the Apps led the league in sacks and third-down conversion defense. Player development has been a staple of Jones’ tenure at Appalachian State. During his 16 seasons with the Mountaineers, he has coached 10 all-America defensive linemen and linebackers, including four two-time honorees, and 17 all-conference performers that have earned the recognition a total of 29 times. Three of his pupils — Josh Jeffries (2002), K.T. Stovall (2003) and Jacque Roman (2008) — have been named the Southern Conference’s Defensive Player of the Year. In his seven seasons mentoring the Mountaineers’ linebackers, he has averaged nearly two all-SoCon honorees per season, with Appalachian ‘backers honored 12 times during that span. In 2008, all three starting linebackers — Roman, Pierre Banks and D.J. Smith — garnered all-conference recognition. Ten former Mountaineers coached by Jones have gone on to play in the NFL, including three players currently in the league: seven-year pro Jason Hunter (Denver Broncos), who Jones mentored as defensive line coach from 2002-04, second-year pro D.J. Smith (Green Bay Packers), who Jones coached as both linebackers coach (200710) and defensive coordinator (2010) and Mark LeGree (San Francisco 49ers), who was drafted following Jones’ first year as defensive coordinator. While serving as Appalachian State’s special-teams coordinator, Jones was named the 2002 Special Teams Coordinator of the Year by American Football Monthly. One of the most popular and decorated players in University of Tennessee history, Jones was an all-American and two-time all-Southeastern Conference performer as a linebacker for the Vols from 1983-86. He is best known as the defensive leader of UT’s 1985 squad, which won the SEC championship and stunned No. 2 Miami (Fla.), 35-7, in the 1986 Sugar Bowl. Jones’ fourth-quarter interception of Alabama’s Mike Shula that sealed the Vols’ 16-14 win over the Crimson Tide remains one of the most memorable moments of Tennessee’s run to the 1985 SEC title. Jones graduated from UT in 1988 and began his coaching career as an assistant under legendary head coach Johnny Majors at his alma mater in 1989. He went on to serve one-year stints with the Parma Panthers of the Italian American Football League (1990) and the University of Florida (1991) before a five-year tenure at Georgia Military College, including the final four seasons as defensive coordinator. One of 13 children in his family (six brothers and six sisters), Jones is married to the former Donna Hall. The couple has a daughter, Brooke.

Former Appalachian State defensive lineman Jason Blalock is in the third year of his second stint as an assistant coach at his alma mater and his second season as the Mountaineers’ defensive line coach. In his first season overseeing the entire Appalachian defensive line, Blalock’s linemen helped the Mountaineers rank second in the Southern Conference against the rush and third in sacks. Headlining Blalock’s deep and successful group of pupils in 2011 was true freshman Ronald Blair, who started all 12 games at defensive end and earned freshman all-America recognition. From 2009-10, Blalock coached the Mountaineers’ defensive tackles, including allSouthern Conference selection in Malcolm Bennett in 2009. Blalock was also a member of ASU’s coaching staff from 2004-06, when he assisted with a unit that led the Southern Conference in scoring defense in 2005 and ‘06. The 2006 Mountaineers boasted one of the top defenses in SoCon history, leading the league in scoring, rushing, passing and total defense. Following the historic ‘06 campaign, Blalock moved to Newberry College, where he coached the Indians’ defensive line for two seasons (2007-08). He mentored three allSouth Atlantic Conference selections in his two seasons at Newberry and helped lead the squad to a 15-6 record over the two-year period, including a 9-2 record and No. 19 final national ranking in NCAA Division II in 2007. Blalock was a defensive lineman for the Mountaineers from 2000-03, playing in every game over his final three years. As a senior, he registered 37 tackles and six tackles for loss, highlighted by a career-best seven-tackle performance versus Georgia Southern and the only interception of his career in the season opener at Hawaii. He was a member of squads that advanced to the NCAA Division I-AA playoffs in each of his first three seasons (2000-02) and played alongside four all-America defensive linemen during his career. Off the field, Blalock raised funds for the Memorial Christian Hospital in Bangladesh by competing in the Flying Pig Marathon in Cincinnati in May 2010. He completed his first marathon in 4:26:33. Blalock is married to the former Susan Hopkins. The couple resides in Boone with their daughter, Piper.

In five successful campaigns as the head coach at Barron Collier, he led the Cougars to a 36-19 overall record and state playoff appearances all five years. BCHS won three-straight district championships from 200709, doubling the number of district titles that the school had claimed in its first 29 years of existence. In addition to his decade of experience as a head coach, Ivey also served as an assistant at Port Charlotte, Cape Coral and Gulf Coast high schools in western Florida from 1996-2001.

In his two seasons at Appalachian State, Sloan has mentored two all-Americans (Mark LeGree in 2010 and Demetrius McCray in 2011) and four all-Southern Conference honorees. After a year under Sloan’s tutelage, LeGree went on to be a fifthround selection of the Seattle Seahawks in the 2011 National Football League Draft. In 2010, Sloan’s defensive backfield helped Appalachian rank among the nation’s top 30 teams in pass defense, pass-efficiency defense and interceptions. Last season, the Mountaineers led the Southern Conference with 17 interceptions, two of which they returned for touchdowns. Sloan also helped nail down a recruiting class widely regarded as one of the best in all of NCAA Division I FCS in 2011 despite not taking over as recruiting coordinator until just six weeks shy of National Signing Day. Immediately preceding his arrival at Appalachian in 2010, Sloan spent three years at Riverside Military Academy in Gainesville, Ga., including serving as the program’s head coach in 2009. During his three-year stint at Riverside, which included two seasons (2007-08) as defensive coordinator, he helped lead the Eagles to three playoff berths and an 18-15 overall record. He was also the school’s athletics director for two years (2008-09). He also served as the defensive coordinator at Griffin (Ga.) High School in 2006, where his squad posted an 11-1 record and advanced to the second round of the Georgia state playoffs. Prior to his four-year stint in the high-school ranks, Sloan was a successful college assistant at Georgia Southern (defensive backs, 2002-05), Georgia Military (defensive coordinator/recruiting coordinator/defensive backs, 1996-2001) and Clemson (graduate assistant, 1992-95). While at Georgia Southern, he helped lead the Eagles to two Southern Conference championships and three NCAA Division I-AA playoff berths. He mentored three allAmericans, six all-conference selections and one NFL Draft pick (David Young — 2003 sixth round, Jacksonville Jaguars) at GSU. At Georgia Military, he coordinated a defense that set a National Junior College Athletic Association record for total defense while winning the NJCAA national championship in 2001. Sloan’s four-year stint as a graduate assistant at Clemson included two bowl appearances and came on the heels of a successful playing career for the Tigers. He played defensive back at Clemson from 1988-91, was a member of three bowl teams and helped lead the squad to the 1991 Atlantic Coast Conference championship.

Charlie

Cobb

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS 8th YEAR AT APPALACHIAN

n his seven years at Appalachian State University, director of athletics Charlie Cobb has led the department to unparalleled success. The many achievements enjoyed by Appalachian athletics during Cobb’s tenure include: • Three NCAA Division I football national championships — marking the first time that any program has ever won three-consecutive NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision (FCS — formerly Division I-AA) titles and the first NCAA football championships ever won by a team from the state of North Carolina at any level. • Shattering football attendance records at Kidd Brewer Stadium with crowds surpassing “The Rock’s” permanent seating capacity for each of ASU’s 40 regular-season home games since Cobb’s arrival in 2005. • A 298-percent increase in football season-ticket sales. • Seven-consecutive Commissioner’s Cup championships — recognizing the top overall men’s sports program in the Southern Conference. • Three Germann Cup championships — recognizing the top overall women’s sports program in the SoCon. • Thirty-five percent of the athletics department’s students making the Academic Honor Roll (minimum GPA of 3.25). • Seven of 20 varsity programs (football, men’s basketball, men’s cross country, women’s cross country, field hockey, women’s indoor and outdoor track and field) earning public recognition awards, based on being among the nation’s top 10 percent in their respective sports based on Academic Progress Rate (APR) scores. • The Yosef Club, which provides scholarship and facility support for student- athletes, setting fundraising records each of the past seven years. Despite the state of the economy, the Yosef Club has reached the $2 million threshold for donations five years in a row. The record $2.72 million raised by the Yosef Club in 2011-12 is over $2 million more than Appalachian State athletics ever raised in any year prior to Cobb’s arrival. • Appalachian’s athletics annual budget increasing from $7.5 million in Cobb’s first year to nearly $14.5 million in 2012-13. The most visible of Cobb’s many achievements has been the addition of firstclass facilities that will give Appalachian State the opportunity to be successful across the athletics spectrum for years to come. A wave of facility enhancements totaling $50 million were completed in 2009, headlined by the 120,000-square-foot Appalachian Athletics Center. The seven-story complex, located behind Kidd Brewer Stadium’s west stands, includes new football offices and locker room, a strength and conditioning center, training facilities, academic study space and computer lab for all ASU student-athletes, as well as premium seating in the form of 600 club-level seats and 18 luxury suites. The facility enhancements also included other significant renovations to The Rock. A new ticket plaza, which serves as a grand entrance to the stadium, as well as ornamental fencing that replaced the chain-link barriers that used to surround the stadium and field were completed before the 2007 season, while a 4,400-seat upper deck on the stadium’s east side and substantial upgrades to the east and south concourses were completed prior to the ‘08 campaign. In addition to the renovations at Kidd Brewer Stadium, the campaign also produced new homes for Mountaineer baseball (Jim and Bettie Smith Stadium), softball (Sywassink/Lloyd Family Stadium) and soccer (at the Ted Mackorell Soccer Complex), as well as the Apps’ first-ever indoor practice facility (Sofield Family Indoor Practice Facility) and renovations to Varsity Gym that have upgraded the facility to a premier practice and competition venue for ASU basketball, indoor track and field, volleyball and wrestling. With the $50 million in facilities enhancements, all 20 of Appalachian’s intercollegiate sports teams now practice and compete in facilities that have either been built or renovated since the turn of the millenium. While Cobb is quick to point out the “total team effort” put forth to achieve the many successes that have been enjoyed since he began his tenure as ASU’s director of athletics on July 1, 2005, it is the experience, vision and work ethic of the 44-year-old Cobb that has steered the Mountaineers to new heights. Cobb’s peers recognized him for his efforts when the National Collegiate Athletics Directors Association (NACDA) named him the NCAA Division I FCS Southeast Region Under Armour Athletics Director of the Year in 2011. He also serves on numerous NCAA and Southern Conference committees, most notably the NCAA Division I Football committee that he currently chairs.

Prior to his arrival in Boone, Cobb was a member of the athletics department at North Carolina State University from 1998-2005. A four-year football letterwinner at NC State from 1987-90, Cobb served as the Wolfpack’s senior associate athletics director for external operations for the seven years prior to his arrival in Boone. In that role, he oversaw NC State’s marketing, ticket operations, media relations and student-athlete development operations, as well as serving on the department’s compact strategic planning initiative, gender equity and facilities committees. During his tenure, NC State increased football season-ticket sales by 87 percent and men’s basketball season-ticket sales by 121 percent. The combined ticket revenues accounted for an annual increase of over 86 percent for Wolfpack athletics, generating more than $6 million for the department. In addition, Cobb served as NC State’s administrator for baseball and women’s soccer, tournament manager for the 2004 NCAA men’s basketball first and second rounds at the RBC Center and the chair for the southeast region of the NCAA women’s soccer committee. Prior to returning to his alma mater in ‘98, Cobb spent six years in Atlanta, Ga., where he held positions with the Atlanta Sports Council, the Chick-Fil-A Peach Bowl and the Georgia Dome. As an assistant executive director for the Atlanta Sports Council and the Peach Bowl, he helped coordinate Atlanta’s bid for the 2002 NCAA men’s basketball Final Four and handled all game and event operations for the Peach Bowl. As sales manager for the Georgia Dome from 1994-97, Cobb helped procure events such as the Southeastern Conference football championship, the SEC and Atlantic Coast Conference men’s basketball tournaments, NCAA men’s basketball championship events, Georgia High School Association football playoffs, major concerts and other college and amateur sporting events. Cobb graduated with honors with a B.A. in business administration from NC State in 1990. A second-team all-ACC honoree at center as a senior, Cobb was an academic all-ACC selection and collected the prestigious Jim Tatum Award, presented to the ACC football senior with the highest grade point average, and the Bob Warren Memorial Award, given to the Wolfpack football player that displays the highest integrity and sportsmanship. After receiving post-graduate scholarships from both the ACC and NFL Charities, Cobb earned a master’s degree in sports administration from Ohio University in 1992. Cobb is married to the former Lindsay Brecher, who was an all-ACC goalkeeper for NCSU women’s soccer from 1988-90 and serves as an assistant coach for Appalachian’s women’s soccer program. The Cobbs have a 14-year-old son, Harrison, and an 11-year-old daughter, Branan.

3-TIME NATIONAL CHAMPIONS

nationally in punting average (40.9 ypp) … began the season as the team’s punter and place-kicker but fatigue from handling both duties along with the groin injury caused production to slip in both areas midway through the campaign … the emergence of Drew Stewart as a top-notch place kicker allowed Martin to focus exclusively on punting for the second half of the season … turned in perhaps the team’s best individual performance in the season-opening loss at Virginia Tech, averaging 45 yards over eight punts, including two kicks of 50 yards or more and two downed inside the 20 … named SoCon Special Teams Player of the Week for effort in the season opener at Va. Tech … punted just once in the home opener against North Carolina A&T but it was a 69-yard bomb, good for his longest of the season and a tie for eighth-longest in school history … also booted a 51-yard field goal, good for a tie for the seventh-longest in program history, in the win over N.C. A&T … turned in third-straight spectacular performance to open the season versus Savannah State, punting five times for a 47.0-yard average with two fair catches, two kicks of 50 yards or more and three downed inside the 20 yard line … was also perfect on two field-goal attempts, including his second 51-yarder in as many weeks … was named national and conference Special Teams Player of the Week for the performance against SSU … averaged a 42.4 yards over seven punts with a 63-yarder, two fair catches and one downed inside the 20 the following week against No. 13 Chattanooga but missed a 25-yard field goal in the 14-12 win … place-kicking struggles continued the next week against Wofford when he missed three field goals (33, 52 and 33 yards) in a 28-14 loss to the eighth-ranked Terriers … low point of the campaign came two games later against Samford when he averaged just 37.2 yards per punt and missed his fifth-straight field-goal attempt from 28 yards out in the first quarter of a 35-17 win … after the first quarter miss against Samford, the still-present groin ailment forced ASU coaches to turn place-kicking duties over to Stewart, allowing Martin to focus exclusively on punting for the rest of the season … move paid immediate dividends when Martin averaged 40 yards over seven punts in 24-17 win over No. 1 Georgia Southern the next week … boomed his only punts for 51 and 39 yards with both being fair caught in win over Western Carolina … turned in a spectacular performance in the regular-seasion finale against Elon by downing two of his six punts

50-yarder in season-ending loss to Maine. 2010: Played in all 13 games, booting 60 of ASU’s 61 punts on the season (with a quick kick by quarterback DeAndre Presley accounting for the only other punt)

times in 13 games ... had seven punts of 50 yards or longer ... downed at least one punt inside the 20 yard line in 11-of-13 games ... was twice named the SoCon Special Teams Player of the Week —

yards per punt with two 50-yarders in regular-season finale at Florida ... despite a snow-covered field and blustery conditions, averaged 39.3 yards per punt with two fair catches and a 50-yarder in postseason-opening triumph over Western Illinois ... averaged a season-high 46 yards per kick — thanks in large part to a season-best 63-yarder — and downed two kicks inside the 20 in season-ending loss to Villanova ... handled kickoffs for the first four games of the year and averaged 65.5 yards per kick (with the ball being received on average at the opponent’s four yard line) ... had three touchbacks in four games before relinquishing the kickoff duties over to senior place kicker Jason Vitaris ... earned academic all-SoCon recognition for achievements on the field and in the classroom.

good for third in the SoCon and 28th nationally ... helped ASU compile a net punting average of 35.5 yards, good for 19th nationally ... 17 of his 52 punts had to be fair-caught (32.7 percent) and 19-of-52 pinned the opponent inside its 20 yard line (36.5 percent) ... trapped Samford inside the 20 yard line five times in six punts ... also had multiple punts downed inside the 20 against Georgia Southern (2), Chattanooga (2) and South Carolina State (3) ... got stronger as his first collegiate campaign progressed, with all six of his 50-plus-yard punts coming in the final nine games of the season ... recorded his first-career 50-yarder in style by booming a 74-yarder in the waning seconds of come-from-behind victory at Wofford ... 74-yarder is tied for the fourth-longest punt in school history and longest since Nate McKinney also launched a 74-yarder at Wofford in 2003 ... averaged a season-best 48.5 yards per punt in rout over Georgia Southern ... five of his 13 postseason punts were downed inside the 20 and five of the 13 also resulted in fair catches ... averaged 63.1 yards over 88 kickoffs (average kickoff landed inside the seven yard line) ... registered seven touchbacks

BLACKSBURG, Va. - Virginia Tech capitalized on a multitude of Appalachian State University mistakes to jump out to a huge early lead and cruise to a 66-13 win over the Mountaineers in the season opener at Lane Stadium. Appalachian (0-1) fumbled on the second play of the ballgame and Virginia Tech (1-0) needed only one snap to grab a 7-0 lead when David Wilson rumbled 20 yards for the first of his three touchdowns on the afternoon. Things didn’t get much better for the Mountaineers from there, as they were limited to negative-four yards over their next two possessions and the Hokies stretched their advantage to 17-0 less than nine minutes in. Things went from bad to worse for ASU in the second quarter, as they turned the ball over for the second time on their first snap of the period and Wilson once again needed only one play to capitalize, this time rumbling in to the end zone from 19 yards out to make it 24-0. The Hokies would go on to find paydirt on each of their next four possessions, taking a 52-0 lead when Kyle Fuller recovered a blocked punt in the end zone just two-and-a-half minutes into the second half. The Mountaineers got on the board for the first time in 2011 later in the third period when backup quarterback Jamal Jackson found Brian Quick for an acrobatic 46-yard touchdown pass. Quick caught the throw from Jackson while streaking up the right hashmark then kept his balance as several tacklers tried to trip him up before falling into the end zone for the 21st score of his career. Quick was a bright spot for the Black and Gold with three receptions for 110 yards. The 100-yard receiving effort was the seventh of the senior all-American’s career. Jackson led Appalachian on a second touchdown drive early in the fourth quarter, a seven-play, 80-yard jaunt that was highlighted by a 41-yard pass to Tony Washington and capped by a 15-yard scoring run by the sophomore signal-caller. In addition to directing the Mountaineers’ two scoring drives, Jackson rushed six times for a team-high 46 yards and threw for 87 yards and a score. He entered the game midway through the third quarter in relief of All-America starting quarterback DeAndre Presley, who managed to throw for 89 yards and rush for 43 more against the Hokies’ staunch defense. Appalachian’s defense, which was forced to defend a short field due to offensive and special-teams mistakes, was led by safety Troy Sanders’ 10 tackles. Linebacker Brandon Grier added eight stops, including one for loss, while nose tackle Dan Wylie chipped in with four tackles, including ASU’s lone sack. Junior Sam Martin had a career day, booming eight punts for an average of 45.0 yards. Two of his eight boots covered 50 or more yards while two more were downed inside the five yard line. Wilson led the way for Virginia Tech (ranked No. 13 in the Associated Press college football top-25 poll), rushing for 162 yards and three touchdowns on just 16 carries. Making his first start, 6-6, 254-pound quarterback Logan Thomas completed 9-of-19 passes for 149 yards and two scores. The margin of defeat was Appalachian’s largest in 82 all-time season openers, the largest in any game since a 56-0 loss at NC State on Oct. 6, 1990 and the fifth largest-overall in program history.

KIDD BREWER STADIUM • BOONE, N.C. ATTENDANCE: 26,415 BOONE, N.C. - Appalachian State University head coach Jerry Moore became the 17th coach in NCAA Division I history to win 200 games at one institution in the Mountaineers’ 58-6 home-opening rout over North Carolina A&T at Kidd Brewer Stadium. Appalachian (1-1) jumped out to a 21-0 halftime lead and scored 30 points in a 12:38 span in the second half to cruise to Moore’s 200th victory in 23 seasons at ASU. He joins legendary mentors such as Eddie Robinson (408 wins at Grambling), Joe Paterno (402 at Penn State), Bobby Bowden (304 at Florida State), Bear Bryant (232 at Alabama), Woody Hayes (205 at Ohio State) and former boss Tom Osborne (255 at Nebraska) on the list of coaches to win 200 games with a Division I program. Just minutes after Moore sealed his 200th win with the Mountaineers, Virginia Tech’s Frank Beamer became the 18th member of the exclusive group by downing East Carolina, 17-10, for his 200th victory at VT. In contrast to their season-opening loss at Virginia Tech, the Mountaineers were sharp in all phases of the game in Saturday’s romp. Offensively, ASU racked up 491 total yards (255 rushing and 236 passing), defensively, it limited N.C. A&T (0-1) to just 335 yards, forced three turnovers and scored a touchdown and on special teams, the Mountaineers blocked two punts to go along with a 69-yard punt and 51-yard field goal. Senior all-Americans DeAndre Presley and Brian Quick led the offensive charge, with Presley completing 19-of23 passes without an interception for 197 yards and Quick hauling in a career-high 11 receptions for 113 yards. The duo hooked up for a pair of touchdowns, a 19-yarder on the game’s opening series that gave the Mountaineers a 7-0 lead less than three minutes into the ballgame, and a nine-yarder midway through the third quarter that kickstarted the Apps’ second-half scoring burst. Presley also scored on runs of eight and three yards to account for four of ASU’s eight touchdowns. In a curious move, North Carolina A&T (0-1) won the opening coin toss but elected to defer and allow Appalachian to take the ball first. ASU needed just eight plays to march 69 yards and draw first blood on Presley’s 19yard scoring strike to Quick. The Mountaineer defense forced a three-and-out on A&T’s first possession and ASU’s offense responded with a methodical 13-play, 98-yard drive that was capped by the first of Presley’s two touchdown runs that gave the Apps a 14-0 lead just over 10 minutes into the ballgame. Appalachian stretched the advantage to 21-0 on Cedric Baker Boney’s three-yard touchdown run just before halftime but N.C. A&T appeared to be on the verge of making things interesting when it cut its deficit to 21-7 on a 40yard touchdown pass from Lewis Kindle to Wallace Miles just two minutes into the second half. However, the Mountaineers answered with a 12-play, 78-yard drive, capped by Quick’s second touchdown catch of the day, and went on to score on each of their six second-half possessions (five touchdowns and a field goal). After Presley came out of the game with ASU leading 35-6 midway through the third quarter, backup quarterback Jamal Jackson led the Apps on a pair of touchdown drives, capping them with scoring runs of one and three yards. A 51-yard field goal by Sam Martin, Appalachian’s longest in 11 years, and a 97-yard interception return by true freshman Doug Middleton, ASU’s longest in 21 years, rounded out the scoring. In addition to Presley and Quick, ASU’s offensive standouts included Baker Boney, who ran for a career-high 111 yards on just 12 carries (9.2 ypr), Travaris Cadet, who averaged 10.1 yards per rush with 71 yards on just seven carries and Steven Miller, who accounted for 86 all-purpose yards (54 receiving and 32 rushing). Defensively, eight different Mountaineers recorded at least eight tackles, led by Jeremy Kimbrough’s eight stops, including one-and-a-half for loss. Troy Sanders and Middleton each had five tackles to go along with interceptions and Dan Wylie forced and recovered a fumble in addition to his five stops. On special teams, senior Phillip Strickland became only the third player in ASU history and the first in 24 years to block two punts in a game. However, his performance might have been topped by Martin, who in addition to easily making the 51-yard field goal in the fourth quarter also launched a 69-yard bomb on his only punt of the day. N.C. A&T was led by Miles, who caught seven passes for 155 yards and a touchdown. Aggie defensive back Travis Crosby notched a game-high 18 tackles. The 105-point turnaround from last week’s 66-13 loss at Virginia Tech marked the largest swing in terms of margin of defeat to margin of victory in consecutive game in ASU history. The previous best game-to-game turnaround was 96 points, when Appalachian rebounded from a 44-0 loss to Rutherford to top Mountain Park, 52-0 in 1928 (ASU’s first year of football). NOTES: Appalachian moved to 60-19-2 (.747) all-time in home openers ... ASU has won 25 of its last 28 and 10 of its last 11 home openers ... Appalachian moved to 19-1 in its last 20 games that immediately followed a same-season loss ... the Mountaineers won their 30th-straight home game versus an in-state opponent ... ASU has not lost to an in-state opponent at home since a 34-7 defeat to Western Carolina on Oct. 6, 1984 at then-Conrad Stadium ... the Mountaineers moved to 5-1 all-time versus N.C. A&T ... Appalachian won its fifth-straight matchup with a current member of the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference and moved to 10-2 all-time versus current MEAC squads ... Quick’s 11 receptions were the most by a Mountaineer since DaVon Fowlkes caught a school-record 17 passes versus Elon on Nov. 6, 2004 ... Quick’s two touchdown catches give him 23 for his career, vaulting him past Fowlkes (22 — 2001-2004) and into a tie with current ASU senior associate athletics director Rick Beasley (1978-80) for second in program history ... Quick is just two shy of the school record of 25 touchdown receptions, held by Bob Agle (1965-68) ... Strickland’s two punt blocks marked the fourth time a Mountaineer has blocked two punts in a game — Chuck Hill accomplished the feat twice in 1987 (Oct. 10 vs. Liberty, Nov. 21 at Western Carolina) and Dino Hackett did it at East Tennessee State on Nov. 23, 1985 ... Martin’s 51-yard field goal is tied for the seventh-longest in school history and the longest by a Mountaineer since Mark Wright kicked a school-record 57-yarder versus Troy State on Sept. 9, 2000 ... Middleton’s 97yard interception return was the fourth-longest in ASU Doug Middleton returned his first-career interception 97 history and the longest since Rico Mack returned an INT 100 yards at James Madison on Nov. 17, 1990. yards for a touchdown in the 58-6 win over N.C.

BOONE, N.C. - No. 3 Appalachian State University scored on five of its first seven possessions to grab a 27-0 halftime lead and never looked back en route to a 41-6 win over visiting Savannah State at Kidd Brewer Stadium. Appalachian (2-1) forced five punts and a turnover on Savannah State’s six first-half possessions and ASU’s offense countered with three touchdowns and two field goals before the break to grab the all-but-insurmountable 27-point advantage at the break. For the second week in a row, Appalachian made its opponent pay for the decision to defer after winning the opening coin toss. Savannah State (0-3) won the toss but elected to give the ball to the Mountaineers, who marched 68 yards in seven plays and took the lead for good just 2:40 into the ballgame on a two-yard touchdown run by Travaris Cadet. After ASU tacked on a 41-yard field goal by Sam Martin to make it 10-0, the momentum shifted entirely to the Mountaineers early in the second period, thanks to the play of true freshman defensive end James Robinson. Thanks to four completions by starting quarterback Alfred Defillipis, SSU drove all the way to the Appalachian 23 yard line and was threatening to cut into the Apps’ 10-point lead when Robinson sacked Defillipis on consecutive plays to push the Tigers out of scoring position and force a punt. The back-to-back bone-crushing sacks also knocked Defillipis, who had completed 8-of-13 passes for 81 yards in the first quarter, out of the ballgame. The Mountaineers went on to score on its final three possessions of the first half, first on a 48-yard touchdown pass from DeAndre Presley to Brian Quick, then on a two-yard scoring dive by Presley and finally on a 51-yard field goal by Martin on the final play of the opening half. An interception and 14-yard return by sophomore Rodger Walker set up a three-yard touchdown run by Steven Miller that stretched Appalachian’s lead to 34-0 and effectively ended the day for the Mountaineers’ starters less than 10 minutes into the second half. SSU ended ASU’s hopes for its first shutout in more than five years when backup quarterback Antonio Bostick scored on a 10-yard touchdown run early in the fourth quarter and Mountaineer backup signal-caller Jamal Jackson closed out the scoring with a 16-yard touchdown jaunt with just over two minutes to go. Appalachian outgained Savannah State by a 283-97 margin in the first half and 420-285 for the ballgame. Combined with last Saturday’s 58-6 rout over North Carolina A&T, the Mountaineers have held consecutive opponents to fewer than 10 points for the first time in 13 years. Presley highlighted the dominating performance on offense by completing 11-of-17 passes without an interception for 186 yards and a touchdown in less than three quarters of work. He also ran for 21 yards and a score and, in the process, became only the seventh player in ASU history with 5,000 yards of total offense in his career (5,125). Five of Presley’s 11 completions were hauled in by Quick, who racked up 81 yards and moved into sole possession of second place all-time at ASU with his 24th career touchdown reception. He needs just one more touchdown catch to match the 43-year old school record of 25, set by Bob Agle from 1965-68. Miller led ASU with 60 rushing yards on just nine carries, including a highlight-reel-worthy 30-yard gain that set up his three-yard touchdown run. Cedric Baker Boney added 58 yards on eight carries (7.2-yard averaged) and Terrence McLean chipped in with 48 yards on just five rushes (9.6 avg.) to pace the Mountaineers’ 234-yard rushing attack. Conversely, Appalachian’s defense limited Savannah State to just 41 yards on the ground, including only four in the first half. The Mountaineers tormented the Tigers in the backfield throughout the evening, finishing with 10 tackles for loss and six sacks. Robinson led the charge with two sacks, 2.5 tackles for loss, a quarterback hurry and a forced fumble. Linebacker Brandon Grier added 1.5 tackles for loss and a sack while true freshman Ronald Blair also had 1.5 stops behind the line of scrimmage and was in on a sack. Walker, safety Troy Sanders and linebacker Jeremy Kimbrough paced the Mountaineers with six tackles apiece. Bostick completed 15-of-33 passes for 136 yards and ran 11 times for 37 yards for Savannah State while SSU’s Vaughn Cornelia led all players with 11 tackles. NOTES: Appalachian has held back-to-back opponents to fewer than 10 points for the first time since 51-0 and 19-0 wins over VMI and Eastern Kentucky on Nov. 14 and Nov. 21, 1998 ... the six points allowed by ASU matches last week’s 58-6 win over N.C. A&T for the fewest points surrendered by the Mountaineers since their last shutout, a 41-0 win over Mars Hill on Sept. 16, 2006 ... ASU has won 12-consecutive regular-season home games (dating back to a 40-35 loss to McNeese State in the 2009 home opener) and is 57-4 in its last 61 home games overall ... in five night games at Kidd Brewer Stadium since 2007, ASU has won all five by an average score of 51-18 ... Appalachian is over .500 through three games for only the second time in the last four seasons ... ASU wore gold alternate jerseys for the first time this season and moved to 6-0 all-time when donning gold tops (all in the past three seasons) ... unlike past years, this season’s alternate jerseys will not be auctioned to fans but will rather become a regular part of ASU’s uniform rotation ... Martin’s 51-yard field goal on the last play of the first half was his second 51-yarder of the season and is tied for the seventh-longest field goal in school history ... Martin, who is also ASU’s punter, downed two punts inside the five yard line giving him five kicks downed inside the five this season ... Quick’s five catches moved him past Agle (146 career receptions) and into fourth place on ASU’s all-time list with 150 career receptions ... defensive back Ed Gainey and linebacker Lanston Tanyi did not participate due to a violation of team rules ... senior tight end Ben Jorden was dressed but did James Robinson had two sacks, 2.5 tackles for loss, a QB not play as he continues to recover from a head injury suffered the previous Saturday against N.C. A&T. hurry and a forced fumble in the 41-6 win over SSU.

KIDD BREWER STADIUM • BOONE, N.C. ATTENDANCE: 27,304 BOONE, N.C. - No. 3 Appalachian State University’s defense not only limited Chattanooga’s high-powered offense to just 12 points but also provided all of Appalachian’s scoring in a heart-stopping 14-12 win over the 13th-ranked Mocs at jam-packed Kidd Brewer Stadium. With Chattanooga threatening to stretch a 6-0 lead to a two-score advantage on the final play of the third quarter, Appalachian’s Rodger Walker scooped up an errant snap on a UTC field-goal attempt and returned the fumble 73 yards for a touchdown that gave ASU an improbable 7-6 lead going into the final period. Just 1:22 later, linebacker Jeremy Kimbrough intercepted a pass by Chattanooga’s B.J. Coleman and rumbled 46 yards for what proved to be the winning points. Buoyed by great field position after ASU was flagged for excessive celebration following Kimbrough’s score, Coleman bounced back from the costly interception to engineer a nine-play, 53-yard drive that culminated with a 20-yard touchdown pass to Sloan Allison that cut the Mountaineer lead to 14-12 with 9:51 to go. However, on the ensuing two-point-conversion attempt, UTC’s Marlon Anthony couldn’t overcome tight ASU coverage to catch a pass from Coleman and the Mountaineers maintained their two-point advantage. From there, Appalachian’s offense was able to pick up four crucial first downs over its final two possessions and run nearly seven-and-a-half minutes off the clock. The Mountaineers punted the ball back to Chattanooga with 42 seconds remaining in the ballgame but on the first play of the Mocs’ ensuing drive, true freshman cornerback Doug Middleton intercepted a wobby pass from Coleman at the UTC 40 yard line to seal the thrilling victory. In all, ASU’s defense limited UTC to 302 yards, nearly 50 below its average coming in, including just 32 yards on the ground, almost 100 fewer than it averaged over its first three games. Using a multitude of blitzes, Mountaineers punished Coleman throughout the afternoon, sacking him four times and hurrying him on seven more occasions. Appalachian also broke up 10 passes, as Coleman completed just 22 of his 42 attempts. Kimbrough led the stellar defensive performance with 11 tackles, two sacks, two-and-a-half tackles for loss, two pass break-ups and a quarterback hurry to go along with his first interception and touchdown of his career. Fellow junior linebacker Brandon Grier also tallied 11 tackles and cornerback Demetrius McCray had three pass break-ups to go along with a sack, forced fumble and a quarterback hurry. Offensively, the Mountaineers squandered a number of opportunities to put points on the board throughout the afternoon. ASU had at least one first down on eight of its 11 possessions (not counting when it took a knee on the final play of the game) and was in Chattanooga territory six times. However, three turnovers and a missed field goal stymied ASU, which did not score an offensive touchdown for the first time since a 24-0 loss at LSU in 2005. Despite throwing two interceptions for only the fourth time in his career, DeAndre Presley totaled 195 yards of offense (143 passing, 52 rushing) to lead Appalachian offensively. Travaris Cadet led all rushers with 63 yards and Brian Quick caught five passes for 65 yards. The win was ASU’s seventh-straight over Chattanooga but its second that required a late rally. The Mountaineers came back from a 21-point fourth quarter deficit to down the Mocs, 42-41, in last year’s season opener. In addition, Appalachian extended its home winning streak over the Mocs to 14 games and won for the 24th time in the last 27 meetings between the two squads. NOTES: Appalachian won its fourth SoCon opener in a row and its 18th-straight conference opener played at home (ASU’s last SoCon-opening loss in Boone was a 27-21 setback to Furman in 1982) ... ASU is 32-8 all-time in SoCon openers ... UTC has not won in Boone since a 30-9 triumph over the Mountaineers at then-Conrad Stadium on Oct. 8, 1983 ... Appalachian moved to 58-4 in its last 62 home games ... ASU is 34-10 in its last 44 games against nationally ranked FCS opponents, dating back to 2003 ... ASU’s scoreless first half was its first against an NCAA Division I FCS opponent since Oct. 16, 2004 at Georgia Southern ... Appalachian’s defense held an opponent to fewer than 50 rushing yards for the second-straight week (Savannah State had only 41 last Saturday against ASU) and the seventh time in the last 44 games (dating back to the second game of the 2008 season) ... FCS opponents are averaging just eight points per game against the Mountaineers this season ... prior to this season, the last time that three-consecutive Appalachian opponents combined to score fewer than 25 points was Nov. 1-15, 1997 when Chattanooga, VMI and Western Carolina managed just 21 total points (seven apiece) in ASU victories ... Quick moved ahead of former teammate Matt Cline into third all-time at ASU with 155 career receptions ... Quick is just 45 catches shy of the ASU record of 200, set by DaVon Fowlkes from 2001-04 ... Middleton made his first-career start at free safety in place of Patrick Blalock, who was not Rodger Walker’s 73-yard fumble return was the first of two defensive touchdowns dressed due to a thigh injury. that Appalachian scored in the final 15 minutes of its 14-12 win over UTC.

SPARTANBURG, S.C. – No. 3 Appalachian State University squandered a pair of red-zone opportunities and allowed Wofford to convert 11-of-18 third downs and 4-of-4 fourth downs in a 28-14 loss to the eighth-ranked Terriers at Gibbs Stadium. Appalachian’s second loss in its last 30 Southern Conference games snapped a three-game winning streak and dropped the Mountaineers to 3-2 overall and 1-1 in SoCon play. With Wofford (3-1, 2-0 SoCon) controlling the ball for 38:30, ASU had only eight offensive possessions and was in position to score on five of them. However, the Mountaineers, who came into the game tied for fourth nationally with an 85.7-percent red-zone touchdown rate, came away empty-handed twice after driving the ball inside Wofford’s 20 yard line. ASU left at least nine points on the field by missing all three of its field-goal attempts from 33, 52 and 33 yards. Despite the ineffectiveness in the red zone, Appalachian, which trailed 14-0 in the first quarter and 21-7 after three periods, pulled within a touchdown at 21-14 on Andrew Peacock’s nine-yard touchdown catch less than a minute into the fourth quarter. Momentum appeared to be shifting to the Mountaineers when on the ensuing kickoff, Wofford’s Stephon Shelton picked up an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty for firing the ball at an ASU tackler after the play, leaving the Terriers backed up to their own 17 yard line. However, Wofford put the game away by driving 83 yards on 12 plays, capped by a 19-yard touchdown run that gave the Terriers a 28-14 lead with under eight minutes to play. Like they did throughout the ballgame, the Terriers did their biggest damage on third and fourth downs during the game-clinching series, converting a third down and a fourth down during the 12-play drive. In all, 157 of Wofford’s 407 total yards came on 22 third and fourth down plays. The proficiency allowed the Terriers to punt only once in the entire ballgame and run 17 more plays than the Mountaineers, which led to a 407247 advantage in total yardage. Boone native Eric Breitenstein led all rushers with 173 yards on 33 carries but it was Donovan Johnson, who carried 10 times for 75 yards (7.5 avg.) and two touchdowns, and Derek Boyce, who amassed 49 yards on just four rushes (12.2 avg.) that were the Mountaineers’ biggest nemeses throughout the afternoon. The Mountaineers were led offensively by DeAndre Presley, who completed 19-of-32 passes without an interception for 146 yards. Five of those passes were hauled in by tight end Ben Jorden, who had a season-high five receptions for 55 yards. Peacock chipped in with four catches for 37 yards. Senior Brian Quick, who had 17 catches for 426 yards and seven touchdowns in three previous meetings with Wofford, was limited to just 15 yards on two receptions. Defensively, linebacker John Rizor and Demery Brewer led all players with 10 tackles apiece. Brandon Grier and Lanston Tanyi added seven tackles each and Demetrius McCray intercepted one of Wofford’s four attempts. NOTES: ASU is 1-1 after two SoCon games for the third time in seven seasons — the previous two times (2005 and 2007), the Mountaineers went on to win SoCon and national championships ... Appalachian lost to Wofford for the first time since 2007 and only the fourth time since 1973 ... ASU dropped to 34-11 in its last 45 games versus nationally ranked NCAA Division I FCS opponents ... Jorden’s five receptions were one short of his career high of six, set versus South Carolina State in the first round of the 2008 NCAA Division I Football Championship ... despite a rough day on field-goal attempts, ASU punter/place kicker Sam Martin downed a punt inside the five yard line for the sixth time this season when his 53-yard kick late in the second quarter was downed on the Wofford two ... Rizor and Brewer both set career highs with their 10 tackles ... . the Mountaineers were without the services of starting middle linebacker Jeremy Kimbrough, who was serving a SoCon-issued one-game suspension for excessively celebrating on two occasions in the previous week’s emotional 14-12 win over Chattanooga ... defensive lineman Gordy Witte, Jr. and linebacker Jamal Ware left the game with ankle and shoulder Andrew Peacock’s nine-yard touchdown catch brought Appalachian within a injuries, respectively. touchdown in the fourth quarter of a 28-14 loss at No. 8 Wofford.

JOHNSON HAGOOD STADIUM • CHARLESTON, S.C. ATTENDANCE: 14,154 CHARLESTON, S.C. - Making his first-career start, Jamal Jackson led Appalachian State University to a season-high 552 yards of total offense and a 49-42 victory over The Citadel at Johnson Hagood Stadium. Jackson completed his first 15 passes and led Appalachian (4-2, 2-1 SoCon) to touchdowns on seven of its first eight possessions to help ASU jump out to a commanding 49-14 lead midway through the third quarter. The Citadel (2-4, 1-4 SoCon) scored 28-straight points to cut the Mountaineer lead to just seven points with 6:10 to go but Appalachian put together a 13-play, 55-yard drive to milk the final six-plus minutes off the clock and seal the win. Starting in place of injured All-America signal-caller DeAndre Presley, Jackson completed 21-of-27 passes without an interception for 234 yards and three touchdowns in the triumph. ASU’s offense was also buoyed by two 100-yard rushers in Travaris Cadet, who carried 18 times for 133 yards, and Steven Miller, who also carried 18 times for 102 yards, and Brian Quick’s 131 receiving yards. After scoring only two offensive touchdowns in its last 23 possessions, Appalachian’s offense clicked from the get-go. The Mountaineers marched 82 yards in 10 plays on its opening series, never going deeper than second down and capping its most impressive drive in nearly a month with a five-yard touchdown run by Cedric Baker Boney. Helped by a 26-yard gain on a fake punt, The Citadel (2-4, 1-4 SoCon) evened the score at 7-7 on its ensuing possession but ASU answered with four more consecutive touchdown drives to take a commanding 35-14 lead on Ben Jorden’s three-yard TD catch with 1:18 to go in the second quarter. The Mountaineers’ only punt of the first half came with less than 10 seconds to play before halftime. It was more of the same for ASU immediately following the break, as it drove for touchdowns on its first two possessions of the second half to stretch its advantage to 49-14 midway through the third quarter. Things appeared to get even more comfortable for Appalachian when Demetrius McCray ended The Citadel’s next possession with his second interception of the year but, instead, the Bulldogs dominated the next 15 minutes of the ballgame to put the outcome in doubt. Thanks in large part to two ASU fumbles and a blocked punt that was returned for a touchdown, The Citadel scored four touchdowns in a 12:28 span to cut the Mountaineer advantage from 49-14 to 49-42 with 6:10 to go. However, ASU responded to the score that brought the Bulldogs within one score by putting together perhaps its most critical drive of the season to date, driving 55 yards on 13 plays and, most importantly, milking the final 6:10 off the clock to seal the victory. Cadet carried seven times for 40 yards on the game-clinching drive and Jackson completed both of his passes, including a six-yard connection with Andrew Peacock on third down that kept the series alive. The Mountaineers had the ball on the Citadel one yard line with 59 seconds remaining but knelt twice to end the ballgame. In all, Appalachian outgained The Citadel, 552-349, including a season-best 318 rushing yards and 234-88 advantage in passing, and held a commanding 35:07-24:53 edge in time of possession. ASU also converted 9-of-15 third downs, its second-best percentage of the season. Defensively, Jeremy Kimbrough led Appalachian with 11 tackles while Dominique McDuffie turned in one of his finest games as a Mountaineer with eight tackles, including a tackle for loss, a pass break-up and a fumble recovery. With the victory, Appalachian moved to 20-1 in its last 21 games immediately following a same-season loss. NOTES: ASU had multiple 100-yard rushers in a game for the first time since a 49-7 win at Chattanooga on Nov. 7, 2008 (Armanti Edwards - 152, Baker Boney - 107 and Presley - 101) ... Quick’s second-quarter touchdown catch was the 25th of his career, moving him into a tie with Bob Agle (1965-68) for tops on ASU’s all-time touchdown receptions list ... Quick’s 100-yard game was his third of the season and ninth of his career ... Jorden’s second-quarter touchdown catch was the 14th of his career, tying him with Daniel Bettis (2002-06) for most ever by an Appalachian tight end ... junior punter Sam Martin’s downed a punt inside the five yard line for the seventh time this season with his 39-yard punt at the end of the first half ... ASU defeated The Citadel for the eighth-straight time and 17th time in their last 18 meetings ... the Mountaineers’ 28 first downs were the most surrendered by The Citadel since Tim Tebow-led Florida amassed 28 first downs against the Bulldogs in 2008 ... Appalachian won for the 29th time in its last 31 SoCon games and avoided suffering consecutive conference losses for the first time since 2002 ... ASU moved to 19-6 in games immediately following an open week in 23 seasons under head coach Jerry Moore ... Baker Boney (shoulder) and senior In his first-career start, Jamal Jackson completed 21-of-27 passes for 234 yards linebacker Demery Brewer left the game with injuries. and three touchdowns in a wild win at The Citadel.

BOONE, N.C. - No. 6 Appalachian State University scored 21 points in a 12:46 span of the second quarter to turn 3-0 deficit into a 21-10 halftime lead and cruised to a 35-17 win over visiting Samford at Kidd Brewer Stadium. With the win, Appalachian moved to 5-2 overall and 2-1 in Southern Conference play going into a colossal showdown versus No. 1 Georgia Southern (7-0, 5-0 SoCon) at The Rock. With No. 5 Wofford’s 26-21 loss at Furman, ASU controls its own destiny in its quest for an unprecedented seventh-straight SoCon championship. Appalachian dominated the action from the get-go but a pair of turnovers deep in Samford territory and a missed field goal left the Mountaineers empty-handed. Samford took advantage of the ASU miscues to take a 3-0 lead on Cameron Yaw’s 39-yard field goal midway through the first quarter. The Mountaineers’ dominance finally began to pay dividends in the second period, as they put together threestraight drives of 74 yards or more to erase the 3-0 deficit and take a commanding 21-10 lead. The second-quarter blitz began when quarterback Jamal Jackson capped a nine-play, 74-yard drive with a two-yard touchdown run to give Appalachian its first lead of the afternoon at 7-3. One series later, ASU marched 84 yards on seven plays, buoyed by 18 and 13-yard runs by Travaris Cadet and a 27-yard gain on a screen pass to Steven Miller. Cadet closed out the impressive drive with a five-yard touchdown run to stretch the ASU advantage to 14-3. Samford (4-3, 2-3 SoCon) appeared to regain a bit of momentum when it cut the lead to 14-10 with 2:38 to go in the first half but Appalachian quickly turned the tables back in its favor five plays later when Jackson hit Brian Quick in stride over the middle and Quick sped untouched past several Bulldog defenders for a 69-yard touchdown. The score not only gave the Mountaineers a 21-10 lead going into halftime but was also the 26th of Quick’s career, breaking the 43-year-old ASU record for touchdown receptions in a career, previously held by Bob Agle (1965-68). Appalachian put the game away for all intents and purposes on its second possession of the second half when, after a 37-yard punt return by Cadet gave the Mountaineers terrific field position in Samford territory, Jackson found Tony Washington for a 41-yard touchdown strike that stretched the Mountaineers’ advantage to 28-10. ASU erased any doubts about the final outcome when it put together a clock-milking, 13-play, 86-yard touchdown drive that spanned 6:41 late in the third quarter and early in the fourth that extended its lead to 35-10. The back-breaking drive was highlighted by 20-yard completions to both Washington and Andrew Peacock and capped by Cadet’s second touchdown run of the day from 12 yards out. In all, Appalachian’s offense racked up over 500 yards of offense for the second-straight week, outgaining Samford, 519-380, and averaging 7.2 yards per snap. The balanced ASU attack included 290 passing yards and 229 yards on the ground. Cadet and Quick led the onslaught with 139 yards on 22 carries and 100 yards on four receptions, respectively. The 100-yard game was the 10th of Quick’s career and his fourth this season while Cadet surpassed the century mark for the fifth time overall and first time in back-to-back games (he rushed for 133 yards in the previous week’s win at The Citadel). Jackson completed 19-of-30 passes for a career-high 290 yards and two touchdowns with six of his completions going to Washington, who amassed 78 yards. Despite the offensive fireworks, the story of the day may have been senior DeAndre Presley. After having a string of 18-straight starts at quarterback snapped last week at The Citadel due to a shoulder injury, Presley started at right cornerback on Saturday after less than one week of practice at the new position. Presley made his presence on the defensive side of the ball known just seven plays into the game when he leveled Samford’s Kelsey Pope, causing a fumble that was recovered by the Mountaineers. Presley went on to finish with six solo tackles to go along with the forced fumble in his first-ever defensive action. Jeremy Kimbrough and Troy Sanders led Appalachian with nine tackles apiece with Kimbrough adding a sack, one-and-a-half tackles for loss and a fumble recovery. Rodger Walker had two interceptions for the Mountaineers. ASU limited Samford to just 84 rushing yards, marking the third time in seven games this season that an opponent failed to rush for 100 yards against the Mountaineers. Samford’s Dustin Taliaferro completed 27-of-42 for 253 yards but threw for just one touchdown and was picked off twice. Fabian Truss, who came into the contest ranked fourth in the SoCon and 25th nationally with 98.2 rushing yards per game, managed just 65 yards on 16 carries. NOTES: Appalachian moved to 30-2 in its last 32 SoCon games ... the win was ASU’s 15th-straight regularseason home victory ... the Mountaineers moved to 59-4 in its last 63 home games overall ... the crowd of 28,912 was the ninth-largest in Kidd Brewer Stadium history ... ASU won for the ninth-straight time on homecoming and is now 37-11-2 in 50 all-time homecoming games played at The Rock ... Appalachian moved to 7-0 all-time when wearing gold jerseys, including 2-0 in this year’s incarnation of the alternate third jersey ... Appalachian moved to 4-0 against Samford since the Bulldogs joined the SoCon in 2008 and 5-1 all-time versus SU ... ASU remains as the only SoCon team that Samford has Travaris Cadet rushed for a season-high 139 yards and scored two touchdowns in not beaten in four years in the league. the Mountaineers’ 35-17 homecoming win over Samford.

KIDD BREWER STADIUM • BOONE, N.C ATTENDANCE: 30,018 BOONE, N.C. - Brian Quick scored the go-ahead touchdown on an acrobatic 15-yard catch with 9:24 to go and Appalachian State University’s defense made the lead stand up in the Mountaineers’ 24-17 win over No. 1 Georgia Southern at jam-packed Kidd Brewer Stadium. With its first win over a top-ranked team in 12 years, Appalachian (6-2, 4-1 SoCon) gained the inside track on winning an unprecedented seventh-straight Southern Conference championship and handed Georgia Southern (7-1, 5-1 SoCon) its first loss of the year. In front of 30,018 black-clad, boisterous fans on Black Saturday at The Rock, the Mountaineers held Georgia Southern — the NCAA Division I FCS leader in scoring (44.6 points per game) and rushing (369.7 yards per game) coming in — to just 10 offensive points, 135 rushing yards and 201 yards of total offense, 286 fewer than the 487.3 yards per game it rolled up en route to its 7-0 start. Appalachian’s defense was especially stout when it mattered the most, as it turned the Eagles away inside the 10 yard line twice in the final 15:30 of the ballgame and stuffed GSU’s Robert Brown for a one-yard loss on fourth-and-one from the ASU 46 to essentially seal the victory with 1:45 to go. The Mountaineers exploded out of the gates, turning a pair of first-half interceptions by Demetrius McCray into touchdowns en route to grabbing a commanding 17-3 halftime lead. Georgia Southern quarterback Jaybo Shaw, who hadn’t thrown an interception all season, was picked off on the fourth play of the game by McCray, and Appalachian needed only six plays to turn the miscue into points. On third-and-two from the GSU 25 yard line, ASU quarterback Jamal Jackson stood in the face of a blitz and delivered a strike to a wideopen Andrew Peacock who waltzed into the end zone to give the Mountaineers a 7-0 lead less than five minutes into the contest. After the teams traded field goals early in the second period, Georgia Southern moved into ASU territory late in the first half looking to knot the score before the break. However, on a third-and-12 play, Shaw once again took to the air and, once again, McCray picked him off, giving the Mountaineers the ball on their own 20 with 1:29 to go in the opening half. Just 72 seconds later, Jackson hit Quick in stride down the left sideline for a 56-yard touchdown that gave Appalachian a commanding 17-3 halftime lead. The 56-yard strike not only staked ASU to a two-touchdown advantage but also put Quick over the 3,000-yard receiving mark for his career, making him only the second Mountaineer and seventh player in SoCon history to join the exclusive club. The third quarter was all Georgia Southern, with the Eagles using their patented triple-option rushing attack to roll up 118 yards on just two possessions. On its first possession of the second half, GSU marched 60 yards in 12 plays, chewing up seven minutes off the clock before J.J. Wilcox dove in for a three-yard touchdown that cut the ASU lead to 17-10. It appeared the Eagles were poised to pull even going into the final period when they drove 56 yards to the ASU three yard line on their very next series. However, on fourth and goal from the three, Brandon Grier stopped Shaw for a two-yard gain to preserve the Mountaineers’ 17-10 lead going into the fourth quarter. However, Georgia Southern was able to draw even without even putting its offense back on the field, as it forced Appalachian to punt from its own end zone following ASU’s goal-line stand and Darreion Robinson made the first coverage man miss, broke several tackles, barely kept his balance on at least two occasions and twirled his way into the end zone for a 46-yard return that tied the ballgame at 17-17 with 13:57 left to play. With momentum firmly in Georgia Southern’s corner and the crowd at The Rock at its quietest of the afternoon, Jackson engineered perhaps the finest drive of his young career when he directed a nine-play, 67-yard masterpiece that culminated with Quick leaping high to haul in a floating pass in the back of the end zone, then using his entire 6-5 frame to get a foot down before falling out of bounds. Jackson completed 3-of-4 passes for 41 yards and rushed twice for seven yards on what proved to be the game-winning drive, which gave Appalachian a 24-17 lead with 9:24 to go in the ballgame. From there, the ASU defense took over. After forcing a GSU punt after the go-ahead touchdown, the Mountaineer defense was back on the field just two plays later when Jackson made his only mistake of the day, an interception that was returned 26 yards by Georgia Southern’s Laron Scott to the ASU nine yard line. However, despite being less than 10 yards from paydirt and possessing the nation’s top rushing attack, Shaw and the Eagles inexplicably threw three-straight passes inside the 10 yard line, the third of which was batted away by DeAndre Presley on fourth down to give the Apps the ball back with 4:33 left and their seven-point lead still intact. A three-and-out by the Mountaineer offense gave Georgia Southern the ball near midfield with under three minutes to go but once again, the Appalachian defense stood tall. On fourth and one from the ASU 46, Grier made yet another critical stop when he stuffed Brown for a loss of one yard to give the Mountaineers the ball back with 1:45 to play. A GSU timeout forced Appalachian to punt the ball back to the Eagles one last time but on the game’s final play, John Rizor sacked GSU backup signal-caller Ezayi Youyoute on the final play of the game to set off a frenzied, field-rushing celebration by the fifth-largest crowd in Appalachian history. In all, ASU turned away Georgia Southern on all four of its fourth-down attempts and limited GSU to just 4-of-13 on third downs. Linebackers Jeremy Kimbrough and Grier led the dominating performance with 16 and 14 tackles, respectively — both career highs. Troy Sanders chipped in with nine stops while Rizor and Ronald Blair added eight tackles and a sack apiece. In addition to holding the Eagles to 234 yards below their season rushing average, the Mountaineers also wreaked havoc on GSU’s passing game. Georgia Southern attempted just 11 passes but completed only four with Appalachian either breaking up or intercepting the other seven. McCray led the way with the first two-interception game of his career, giving him four in the last four games. Presley had two of ASU’s five pass break-ups, with both ending drives in the fourth quarter. Offensively, Quick led the charge with 119 yards and two touchdowns on just four receptions. He matched a school-record with his third-straight 100-yard game and upped his career yardage total to 3,056 yards, just 68 shy of the school record of 3,124 set by current ASU senior associate athletics director Rick Beasley from 1978-80. Jackson turned in his third 200-yard passing effort in as many career starts, going 13-of-26 for 222 yards and a career-high-tying three touchdown passes. He also notched team highs with 13 rushes for 54 yards. Brown paced Georgia Southern’s paltry offense with 47 yards on 15 carries while Jerick McKinnon and Shaw chipped in with 40 and 37 yards on the ground, respectively. NOTES: Appalachian moved to 3-5 all-time versus No. 1-ranked teams, including a 3-2 mark at home ... ASU’s last win over a topranked team came on Oct. 16, 1999, when it also defeated No. 1 Georgia Southern, 17-16, at Kidd Brewer Stadium ... the win was the Mountaineers’ 16th-straight regular-season triumph at home and its 60th in its last 64 games at The Rock overall ... ASU moved to 31-2 in its last 33 SoCon games ... in an ironic role reversal, the win avenged last year’s 21-14 loss at Georgia Southern when Appalachian was undefeated and ranked No. 1 nationally ... the Mountaineers won for the sixth time in their last nine meetings with Georgia Southern and avoided dropping consecutive decisions to the Eagles for the first time since 2001-02 ... the loss was just the second in the last 15 games for Georgia Southern ... prior to Quick’s current run of three-straight 100-yard games, the only Mountaineers to ever record three-consecutive 100-yard receiving outputs were DaVon Folkes (2004) and Bob Agle (1968) ... McCray’s two-interception game was the first by a Mountaineer since Mark LeGree picked off Elon twice in a SoCon title-clinching 27-10 win in 2009 ... Appalachian was without starting left tackle Kendall Lamm and left guard Sherman Holt, who both sustained ankle injuries in practice leading up to the game ... in their place, sophomore Ian Barnard and freshman Graham Fisher made their first-career starts at left tackle and left guard, respectively ... ASU Brian Quick’s 15-yard touchdown catch with 9:24 to go running back Travaris Cadet sustained a head injury late in the proved to be the game-winner in the win over No. 1 GSU. game but walked off the field under his own power.

GREENVILLE, S.C. - Four turnovers and several squandered opportunities in the red zone doomed No. 3 Appalachian State University in a 20-10 loss at Furman at Paladin Stadium. With the loss, Appalachian (6-3, 4-2 SoCon) no longer controls its own destiny in its quest for an unprecedented seventh-straight Southern Conference championship. To claim a share of the record-setting title, ASU must win its remaining games versus Western Carolina on Nov. 12 and at Elon on Nov. 19 and hope for Wofford (6-2, 4-1 SoCon) to defeat Georgia Southern (8-1, 6-1 SoCon) on Nov. 12 in Spartanburg, S.C. and lose at Chattanooga on Nov. 19. Red-hot Furman (6-3, 5-2 SoCon), which has won three-straight games including wins over then-No. 3 Wofford on Oct. 22 and No. 3 Appalachian, can also get a piece of the SoCon crown should the above scenario play out and it defeats Elon at home on Nov. 12. Appalachian dominated the action by many measures, including a 399-365 advantage in total yards, a 22-15 edge in first downs and a whopping 36:15-23:45 advantage in time of possession. However, the Mountaineers could not overcome their season-high-tying four turnovers or coming away empty-handed on 3-of-5 trips into the red zone. ASU’s miscues began on the first series of the game, when it drove to the Furman 22 only to have Jamal Jackson slightly underthrow a pass to a wide-open Ben Jorden in the corner of the end zone. The pass was tipped by FU’s Greg Worthy and into the hands of cornerback Ryan Steed for the first turnover of the afternoon. Seven plays later, Furman took a 7-0 lead on a five-yard pass from Chris Forcier to Ryan Culbreath. Some good fortune helped Furman quickly extend the advantage to 20-0. Late in the opening period, the Paladins drove deep into ASU territory only for Forcier to apparently fumble into the end zone and give the ball back to the Mountaineers. However, officials ruled that Forcier was down and, one play later, Tersoo Uhaa plunged one yard for a touchdown that stretched the FU lead to 14-0. Two possessions later, Appalachian was in position to possibly cut the deficit in half when it drove 61 yards to the Furman 12 but on second down, it was ruled that Jackson fumbled after a hit by Furman’s Tyreek Phillips and the loose ball was recovered by FU’s Tyreek Phillips. Unlike the controversial call on Forcier’s apparent fumble four series earlier, video replays appeared to show that Jackson was down before he coughed up the ball but the Paladins took possession and the Apps’ scoring opportunity was squelched nevertheless. The biggest blow of the first half came minutes later when one play after Drew Stewart missed a 38-yard field goal, Forcier hit Sederrick Cunningham for a 79-yard touchdown strike that staked Furman to a commanding 20-0 lead with 5:56 to go in the first half. On an afternoon ripe with missed opportunities, the most critical of ASU’s fruitless red-zone possessions came on its first series of the second half. The Mountaineers had grabbed a bit of momentum when they capped a 14-play, 58-yard drive with a two-yard touchdown plunge by Travaris Cadet in the waning second of the first half and, after forcing Furman to punt on the first series of the second half, drove all the way to the FU one yard line in hopes of getting within one score. However, for the third time, Appalachian couldn’t capitalize in the red zone when Cadet and Jackson were turned away on back-to-back plays from the one, giving Furman the ball back with its 20-7 lead still intact. ASU climbed within 10 points on a 41-yard field goal by Stewart late in the third quarter but after the teams swapped punts, Furman put together a back-breaking 13-play, 68-yard drive that milked 7:30 off the clock. Despite the fact that FU’s Ray Early missed a 31-yard field goal to end the possession, the Paladins left the Mountaineers with only 2:22 to overcome the 10-point deficit. In an appropriate ending to ASU’s frustrating day, Jackson fumbled at the Furman 38 to end any hopes of a comeback with 1:22 to play. Furman knelt out the clock to seal its first victory over the Mountaineers since 2005. Outside of the four turnovers, it was a career day for Jackson, who set career highs with 29 completions (on 44 attempts) and 312 passing yards. His top targets were Andrew Peacock, Tony Washington and Cadet, who set career highs with eight, seven and six receptions, respectively. Peacock’s eight catches went for 79 yards, which were also a career high for the sophomore. Brian Quick caught four balls for 60 yards, snapping his schoolrecord string of three-consecutive 100-yard games but leaving him just eight yards shy of ASU’s all-time record of 3,124 career receiving yards. Linebackers Brandon Grier and Jeremy Kimbrough led a mostly impressive defensive effort with 11 and nine tackles, respectively. Kimbrough also recovered a fumble while Troy Sanders notched the second interception of his career. Forcier completed 9-of-16 passes for 224 yards and two scores and added 64 yards on the ground to pace Furman. FU’s Nathan Wade led all players with 17 tackles. NOTES: Appalachian lost for the only the third time in its last 34 SoCon games ... the loss was ASU’s first to a SoCon opponent besides Wofford or Georgia Southern since Furman’s 34-31 win over the Mountaineers on Oct. 8, 2005 ... the Mountaineers’ first loss to FU since the ‘05 defeat not only snapped a record six-game winning streak over the Paladins but also dropped ASU to 17Troy Sanders had an interception in Appalachian’s 20-10 22-3 all-time versus Furman, the only SoCon opponent that Appalachian has a losing record against. loss at Furman.

KIDD BREWER STADIUM • BOONE, N.C ATTENDANCE: 30,622 BOONE, N.C. - Led by record-breaking performances from wide receiver Brian Quick and place kicker Drew Stewart, No. 10/8 Appalachian State University routed visiting Western Carolina, 46-14, at Kidd Brewer Stadium. Quick became Appalachian’s all-time leading receiver with a seven-catch, 111-yard performance and Stewart set school records by kicking six field goals and scoring 21 kicking points in the Mountaineers’ seventh-straight victory over longtime rival WCU. ASU retained the Old Mountain Jug for the 25th time in the last 27 years with the easy triumph. Appalachian (7-3, 5-2 SoCon) dominated the game from the outset but, like in the previous week’s 20-10 loss at Furman, struggled to capitalize in the red zone early on. The Mountaineers drove inside the WCU 27 yard line on four of their first five possessions but could not push the ball across the goal line, settling for four Stewart field goals to take a 12-0 lead with just over four minutes to play in the first half. Despite not putting the ball in the end zone on any of its first five series, one of ASU’s greatest offensive highlights in recent memory came on the second play of the second quarter when Quick hauled in a short pass from DeAndre Presley, who was spelling starting quarterback Jamal Jackson on the drive, and darted upfield for 33 yards to break Appalachian’s 31-year-old career record of 3,124 receiving yards, set by current ASU senior associate athletics director Rick Beasley from 1978-80. Leading just 12-0 despite a 202-30 advantage in total yardage, the Mountaineers finally found paydirt with 55 seconds to go before halftime when Jackson capped a six-play, 59-yard drive with a two-yard run that would seemingly send ASU into the locker room with a 19-0 lead. However, on the first play of Western’s ensuing possession, Dominique McDuffie intercepted WCU’s Brandon Pechloff and returned it 27 yards to the WCU 33 yard line. McDuffie’s first interception of the season came on Pechloff’s first pass after replacing injured starter Zach Brindise and proved to be a turning point in the game when Jackson rumbled into the end zone from 13 yards out three plays later. Jackson’s second touchdown in 43 seconds turned a tenuous 12-0 lead into a commanding 26-0 halftime advantage. Appalachian struck again shortly after the break when Jackson found Quick for a 28-yard touchdown — the Apps’ third in a 2:59 span — that stretched the Mountaineers’ lead to 33-0 barely three minutes into the second half. Stewart added two more field goals to up the ASU advantage to 39-0 and end the day for the majority of the Mountaineers’ starters. With a cast of reserves in the game, Western ended Appalachian’s shutout bid with 9:44 to go in the ballgame. The teams swapped touchdowns in the final four minutes to close out the scoring. ASU’s statistical advantage was even more staggering than the final score would indicate. The Mountaineers set season highs with 32 first downs and 553 yards of offense, racking up 21 more first downs and 317 more yards than the Catamounts. ASU also outrushed WCU by a 241-20 margin and matched a season high with 312 yards through the air. Appalachian also held an astounding 40:28-19:32 advantage in time of possession. The domination was even more thorough before the Apps emptied the bench in the fourth quarter, as they held a 479-76 edge in total yardage through three quarters. Quick finished with seven catches for 111 yards, upping his ASU-record career total to 3,227 yards, which is also good for fourth in Southern Conference history. Bouncing back from a four-turnover game in the previous week’s loss at Furman, Jackson completed 22-of-34 passes without an interception for 261 yards and a touchdown while also running 10 times for 48 yards and two scores. The sophomore extended his own school records by passing for at least 200 yards and amassing at least 250 yards of offense in each of the first five starts of his career. Brandon Grier and Jeremy Kimbrough led the Mountaineers’ staunch defensive effort with nine and five tackles, respectively. Two-and-a-half of Kimbrough’s five stops were behind the line of scrimmage. In addition to McDuffie’s game-changing interception late in the first half, Rodger Walker picked off his fourth pass of the season to pull into a tie for the SoCon lead. Pechloff threw for 188 yards and two touchdowns coming off the bench for Western Carolina (1-9, 0-8 SoCon), although the majority of the damage came after the Mountaineers’ starters were done for the day. Despite the victory, Appalachian’s quest for an unprecedented seventh-straight SoCon championship came to an end when Georgia Southern (9-1, 7-1 SoCon) clinched the outright league title with a 31-10 romp over Wofford. NOTES: Appalachian moved to 57-18-1 in 76 all-time meetings with Western Carolina, including a 29-7 record since the inception of the Old Mountain Jug (the rivalry’s traveling trophy) in 1976 ... ASU has won 14-straight home games over WCU, with the Mountaineers’ last home loss to the Catamounts being a 34-7 setback at then-Conrad Stadium on Oct. 6, 1984 ... the ‘84 loss to Western was also Appalachian’s last home loss to an in-state opponent — the victory was ASU’s 31st in a row over an in-state foe at home ... the Mountaineers moved to 21-1 in their last 22 games that immediately followed a same-season loss ... since the third week of the 2003 season, ASU has only lost consecutive games in the same campaign once (2009 vs. East Carolina and McNeese State) ... the triumph was ASU’s 17th-straight regular-season home win and 18th-straight SoCon home victory ... attendance of 30,622 was ASU’s highest of the season and the fourth-highest in Kidd Brewer Stadium history ... it also marked the 40th-straight regular-season game that attendance was over-capacity at The Rock (current capacity: 23,150), dating to the beginning of the 2005 season ... on the same play that Quick broke Beasley’s career yardage record, he matched Beasley for second on Appalachian’s all-time reception list with 178 ... Quick ended the day with 184 career receptions, 16 behind the school record of 200 set by DaVon Fowlkes from 2001-04 ... Quick’s 100-yard game was his sixth of the season (one behind Fowlkes’ record set in 2004) and 12th of his career (four shy of Beasley’s record of 16) ... prior to Stewart’s record-setting day, the school record for field goals in a game was four, last achieved by Jay Millson in a three-overtime game versus Furman in 1991 ... Bjorn Nittmo kicked four field goals in a game three times from 1986-88 ... the ASU record for kick scoring in a game was 15 points, achieved twice by Nittmo (1986 vs. The Citadel and 1988 vs. Gardner-Webb) ... ASU Drew Stewart set a Southern Conference record with six honored its 22 seniors — its largest senior class since 2002 — prior to kickoff. field goals in the 46-14 rout over Western Carolina.

ELON, N.C. — No. 9/8 Appalachian State University matched its biggest rally in 40 seasons of NCAA Division I football, overcoming a 21-0 deficit to down Elon, 28-24, in the regular-season finale at Rhodes Stadium. The 21-point deficit matched the largest that Appalachian (8-3, 6-2 SoCon) has ever overcome in a victory since joining the NCAA Division I ranks in 1972. ASU also overcame a 21-point deficit in a 42-41 triumph over Chattanooga in the 2010 season opener. With the thrilling victory, the Mountaineers all but sealed an at-large berth in the 2011 NCAA Division I Football Championship and will likely receive a first-round bye and second-round home game when the field for the 20-team tournament is announced. The playoff bracket will be unveiled during a half-hour selection show that will be aired nationally on ESPNU. A multitude of mistakes in the early stages of the game led to Appalachian being down by three touchdowns just 12:23 into the game. On three-straight possessions, ASU fumbled at its own 35 yard line, shanked a punt to give Elon possession on the Mountaineer 43 and threw an interception that gave the Phoenix the ball just 56 yards away from paydirt. Elon turned all three miscues into short touchdown drives and Appalachian found itself in a 21-0 hole with 2:37 still left to play in the opening period. Despite the early comedy of errors, the Mountaineers got back into the game quickly by putting together backto-back touchdown drives, capped by scoring strikes from Jamal Jackson to Brian Quick and Travaris Cadet that cut the deficit to 21-14 less than midway through the second quarter. Elon added a field goal with 21 seconds to go in the first half to stretch its advantage to 24-14, a lead that stood up going into halftime when a 50-yard field goal by Sam Martin was negated by a snap infraction. Led by its defense, it was all Appalachian after the break. After Elon rolled up 264 yards of offense in the first half, the Mountaineer defense limited the Phoenix’s high-powered offense to just four yards and forced two turnovers on Elon’s first five series after halftime. ASU drew within four points on Quick’s second touchdown catch of the day with just over six minutes to go in the third quarter but the tide of the game turned completely on the fifth play of the fourth period when true freshman Ronald Blair crushed Phoenix quarterback Thomas Wilson, causing a fumble that was recovered by Brandon Grier at the Elon 30. Five plays later, Jackson threw his fourth touchdown pass of the game to a wide-open Steven Miller and Appalachian took its first lead of the game at 28-24. Elon made it interesting when, after taking over on its own 14 yard line with 2:38 to play, it drove 73 yards to the ASU 13 yard line. However, Appalachian’s defense had one more big play left in it, and Jeremy Kimbrough delivered on fourth-and-five when he stepped in front of a slant pattern by Elon’s Jeremy Peterson and batted down the pass before it reached Peterson in the end zone to give ASU the ball back with 1:23 to go. One play later, Cadet rumbled 12 yards for a first down that sealed the Mountaineers’ 16th-straight victory over Elon. After being knocked out of the contest after a vicious hit on the game’s first series, Jackson rebounded to complete 26-of-42 passes for 284 yards and a career-high four touchdowns. Quick hauled in 11 of Jackson’s 26 completions for 150 yards and two scores. In addition to matching a career high with the 11 catches, Quick also became only the fifth player in ASU history to go over 1,000 receiving yards in a season and tied a school record with his seventh 100-yard game of the campaign. Defensively, ASU surrendered 384 yards but just 120 after halftime. The Mountaineers forced three turnovers, two of which came in the second half, and took Elon’s Aaron Mellette, who caught 14 passes for 236 yards, out of the game for much of the second-half comeback. Mellette did not catch a pass in the second half until after Appalachian had taken the lead in the fourth quarter. Kimbrough led the defensive effort with 12 tackles, including one for loss, and the game-saving pass breakup. Demetrius McCray, who did a yeoman’s job in tough assignment of covering Mellette for most of the ballgame, finished with 11 tackles, two pass break-ups and an interception. Up front, Blair had two sacks and a quarterback hurry to go along with the game-changing forced fumble while John Rizor added 1.5 sacks and two QB hurries. NOTES: Appalachian’s 16-straight wins over Elon date back to 1965 ... Elon’s last win in the series came in 1964, when both teams were members of the NAIA Carolinas Conference ... ASU overcame a halftime deficit to win for the second time this season (the Mountaineers trailed Chattanooga, 3-0, at the break in a 14-12 win on Sept. 24) ... Appalachian won after trailing going into the fourth quarter for the first time since the improbable comeback from a 21-point final-period deficit at Chattanooga in the 2010 opener ... the Mountaineers’ all-but-assured postseason berth will be its seventh-straight, second in NCAA Division I FCS only to New Hampshire, which will almost certainly receive its eighth-consecutive playoff bid on Sunday ... Jackson’s four touchdown passes were the most by a Mountaineer since Presley tied a school record with five on Oct. 16, 2010 vs. The Citadel ... senior Xan Thomas made his first start of the season and second of his career at left tackle ... senior right guard Matt Ruff had his streak of 37-consecutive starts — tied for the longest on the team — snapped due to a head injury sustained last Saturday versus Western Carolina ... the five sacks recorded by ASU’s defense was its second-highest total of the season behind only its six versus Savannah State on Sept. 17 ... Appalachian rushed for fewer than 50 yards (46) for the first time since it managed only 39 yards on the ground in a loss to Richmond in the 2008 NCAA Division I Football Championship quarterfinals ... despite rushing for only 46 yards, the Mountaineers’ Steven Miller’s touchdown with 11:14 to go capped outgained Elon on the ground, 46-40. Appalachian’s comeback from a 21-0 deficit at Elon.

KIDD BREWER STADIUM • BOONE, N.C. ATTENDANCE: 15,291 BOONE, N.C. – For the first time in seven years, No. 9/8 Appalachian State University failed to win a postseason game, as it turned the ball over three times and rushed for only three yards in a 34-12 loss to No. 13 Maine in the second round of the NCAA Division I Football Championship at Kidd Brewer Stadium. Appalachian (8-4) lost a postseason opener for the first time since 2002, when Maine also ended its season with a 14-13 defeat in the opening round of what was then known as the NCAA Division I-AA playoffs. After failing to advance to the postseason in 2003 and ‘04, ASU had won at least one playoff contest and 10 or more games overall every year since 2005 until Saturday’s setback. Maine (9-3) outgained the Mountaineers, 466-275, in its first postseason win since the triumph at ASU in 2002, including a whopping 216-3 advantage on the ground. Despite being outgained 176-22 in the first quarter and punting on eight of its first nine possessions, including six three-and-outs, Appalachian found itself down just 7-6 late in the second quarter and still within striking distance at 13-6 midway through the third period. However, Maine scored two touchdowns in a 2:20 span, the first on a 21yard pass from quarterback Warren Smith to a wide-open John Ebeling and the second on a 54-yard by David Hood on the first play following the fifth of ASU’s six three-and-outs. The Mountaineers kept their hopes alive when Travaris Cadet made it 27-12 with a one-yard touchdown drive on the first play of the fourth quarter and forced a three-and-out to get the ball back with 13:15 still to play. However, after an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty forced a third-and-25, Jamal Jackson threw an interception at midfield and, five plays later, Maine’s Pushaun Brown broke the Mountaineers’ backs with a 31-yard touchdown rumble that made it 34-12. Defensively, Appalachian’s troubles could be attributed at least in part to being down three players in its secondary just four plays into the game. Starting free safety Dominique McDuffie was not available due to a University-related issue and his backup, Patrick Blalock, reaggravated a hamstring injury on the third play of the game. One play later, starting cornerback Rodger Walker sustained a groin injury that allowed Damarr Aultman to be wide open for the first of his two touchdown receptions from Smith, giving Maine the early lead that it would never relinquish. The personnel issues combined with stellar offensive play by Maine, particularly from Smith (272 yards of total offense, three touchdown passes), Brown (111 rushing yards) and Aultmann (five receptions for 117 yards and two scores), added up to ASU surrendering 466 yards, its most allowed since a 66-13 defeat at the hands of Virginia Tech in the season opener. Linebacker Brandon Grier led the Apps’ depleted defense with a game-high 13 tackles, including three for loss. Jeremy Kimbrough chipped in with 12 stops and a fumble recovery. Offensively, the Black Bears’ defense never allowed Appalachian to get on track. The Mountaineers’ three rushing yards were their fewest since running minus-one yard in a 40-35 loss at Northwestern State in 2005 while their three turnovers were one short of a season high. In his last game in the Black and Gold, wide receiver Brian Quick caught a game-high seven passes to become ASU’s all-time leader with 202 career receptions. Quick finishes his collegiate career as Appalachian’s career leader in receptions, receiving yards (3,418) and touchdown receptions (31). Jackson completed 26-of-45 passes for 272 yards and a touchdown but was picked off twice. Andrew Peacock hauled in six passes for a team-high 75 yards and a score. Maine goes on to face Georgia Southern, a 55-48 second-round winner over Old Dominion, in next week’s national quarterfinals. NOTES: ASU has not lost a postseason opener to a team other than Maine since 1999 (a 44-29 defeat versus Florida A&M) ... the Mountaineers lost for only the fourth time in its last 20 postseason games overall ... Appalachian fell to 61-5 in its last 66 home games but is just 2-3 in its last five postseason games at The Rock ... ASU’s three rushing yards were its fewest ever in an NCAA Division I FCS/I-AA playoff game — its previous low was 28 in a 19-16 overtime loss at Montana in the 2000 national semifinals ... the Mountaineers’ string of sixstraight 10-win seasons was the longest streak of its kind in NCAA Division I FCS — only Virginia Tech, which has already secured its seventhconsecutive 10-win season, is the only Division I program with more 10-win campaigns since 2005 ... the attendance of 15,291 was the second-largest for a postseason opener in ASU history — the largest was the 16,223 that attended the 2006 first-round contest versus Coastal Carolina ... Appalachian fell to 9-4 all-time in the postseason versus opponents from the Colonial Athletic Association (and its precursors, Brandon Grier had a game-high 13 tackles in the Mountaineers’ season-ending the Atlantic 10 and Yankee loss to Maine.

NCAA STATISTICAL POLICY Before 2002, postseason games were not included in NCAA final football statistics or records. Despite the NCAA policy, Appalachian previously recognized statistics from all games — regular season and postseason — in its single-season and career records. However, in order to maintain consistency with NCAA and Southern Conference records, beginning in 2006, Appalachian readjusted its single-season and career records, eliminating statistics compiled in 19 NCAA Division I-AA playoff games played before 2002.

NOTING APPALACHIAN STATE IN THE POSTSEASON

• Appalachian is the only program to ever win three-consecutive NCAA Division I FCS/Division I-AA national championships. Only two other programs have ever won two national titles in a row: Georgia Southern (1985-86, 1989-90, 1999-2000) and Youngstown State (1993-94). • Only six programs in NCAA football history boast three-straight national championships, regardless of division. ASU became the first Division I program (FCS or FBS) to accomplish the feat in 61 years when it won its third-consecutive title in 2007. NCAA PROGRAMS WITH THREE-STRAIGHT NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS Team (Division)............................................................................. Years Minnesota (I*)......................................................................... 1934-36 Army (I*).................................................................................... 1944-46 Augustana (III)........................................................................ 1983-86 North Alabama (II)................................................................. 1993-95 Mount Union (III).................................................1996-98; 2000-02 Appalachian State (I-AA/FCS*)............................ 2005-07 • ASU had a string of 13-straight postseason victories from 2005-08, which is a record for consecutive Division I FCS/I-AA postseason wins in contiguous years. Youngstown State won a record 15-straight playoff games from 1993-99, but wasn’t part of the postseason field in 1995, ‘96 and ‘98. • Appalachian is the only school from the state of North Carolina to ever win an NCAA football national championship and the only public institution in the state of North Carolina to win a national title on any level of college football (private institutions Lenoir-Rhyne and Elon have won NAIA national championships).

* NCAA DIVISION I FOOTBALL — NEW NAMES, SAME GAME Beginning with the 2006 postseason, NCAA Division I football began using new labels — Football Bowl Subdivision (formerly — Division I-A) and Football Championship Subdivision (FCS — formerly Division I-AA).

FOURTH QUARTER 9:14 ASU Jason Hunter 15 fumble recovery (Rauch kick)

With Williams back at the helm, the Mountaineers cut the deficit to 16-14 on Kevin Richardson’s one-yard touchdown run in the third quarter.

Hunter galloped untouched into the end zone to give Appalachian a 21-16 lead with 9:14 left to play, setting off a wild celebration on the ASU sideline and among the 12,000-plus Mountaineer fans in the stands.

With under 10 minutes left to play, Northern Iowa quarterback Eric Sanders dropped back to pass from his own 25 yard line.

Murrell and Hunter combined for two more sacks down the stretch to squelch the Panthers’ final scoring opportunities.

Appalachian defensive end Marques Murrell came off the left edge to strip the ball from Sanders.

Richardson’s first-down run in the waning minutes sealed Appalachian’s first-ever national championship.

ATTENDANCE: 22,808 Appalachian struggled to move the ball in each of its first two possessions, but after a sack to start its third series, ASU ripped off gains of 19 and 13 yards to move into UMass territory for the first time all evening. On first-and-10 from the UMass 45, Richardson took a handoff from Edwards, burst through a gaping hole on the left side of the line and easily outran the Minuteman secondary to the corner of the end zone to knot the game at 7-7. The gallop was the second-longest TD run in ASU postseason history (Daniel Wilcox — 65 yds. vs. Florida A&M — 1999). SCORING SUMMARY FIRST Quarter 11:49 UM Matt Lawrence 1 run (Chris Koepplin kick) 1:15 ASU Kevin Richardson 45 run (Julian Rauch kick)

APPALACHIAN 7 • UMASS 7 1:15 TO GO • FIRST QUARTER Both teams moved the ball with relative ease in the first 10 minutes of the second quarter, but all they had to show for it were swapped punts and a UMass interception deep in ASU territory. Appalachian got the ball for only the second time in the second period when it fielded a punt at its own 22 yard line with just over five minutes left to play in the opening half. On the first play of the series, Edwards connected with his favorite target, William Mayfield, for a 35-yard gain. From there, the Mountaineer trio of Richardson, Edwards and Devon Moore banged out the final 43 yards of the drive on the ground, capped by Richardson’s six-yard scoring run off right tackle with 49 seconds to go before halftime. The Apps’ 11-play, 78-yard drive took 4:19 off the clock and assured them of taking a seven-point lead into the locker room.

THIRD QUARTER 4:22 UM Brad Listorti 17 pass from Liam Coen (Koepplin kick) FOURTH QUARTER 13:22 ASU Richardson 4 run (Rauch kick) 8:46 UM Koepplin 42 field goal 1:51 ASU Richardson 2 run (Rauch kick)

APPALACHIAN 14 • UMASS 7 0:49 TO GO • SECOND QUARTER After UMass knotted the contest at 14-14 with an 11-play, 81-yard scoring drive, ASU got the ball back on its own 29 with 4:12 left to play in the third quarter looking to put together a lengthy scoring drive of its own. Thanks in large part to Richardson, who amassed 48 of the ASU’s 71 yards on the possession, the Apps did just that, marching 71 yards in 13 plays. Richardson punctuated the scoring drive by powering four yards through the heart of the line and into the end zone for his 29th touchdown of the season, tying the NCAA Division I FCS record set by Colgate’s Jamaal Branch in 16 games in 2003. More imprtantly, Richardson’s third scoring run of the evening gave the Mountaineers a seven-point lead with 13:22 remaining in the ballgame.

APPALACHIAN 21 • UMASS 14 13:22 TO GO • FOURTH QUARTER When UMass cut the Mountaineers’ lead to 21-17 on a 42-yard Chris Koepplin field goal with 8:46 to go, Appalachian head coach Jerry Moore told quarterbacks coach Scott Satterfield, “We’ve got to run eight minutes off that clock.” Satterfield replied, “We’ve got to score.” Moore agreed. “I didn’t say don’t score. But we need to run some time off the clock.” Richardson, who ran 11 times for 48 of ASU’s 80 yards on the drive, made sure the Apps accomplished both goals. In all, thanks to Richardson’s running and a key thirddown completion from Edwards to fellow freshman Josh Johnson, Appalachian ran 6:46 off the clock on the victory-sealing drive, which culminated with Richardson’s fourth touchdown of the evening. The two-yard dive was also Richardson’s 30th TD of the season, setting a new NCAA Division I FCS singleseason record. Following Richardson’s score, UMass’ last-ditch effort was thwarted when Corey Lynch picked off a Liam Coen pass with 42 seconds to play.

3-TIME NATIONAL CHAMPIONS

Armanti Edwards turned in the one of the top individual performances in NCAA Division I-AA/FCS postseason history in ASU’s 55-35 win over Richmond in the 2007 national semifinals. Edwards’ 313 rushing yards were the most by a quarterback in NCAA Division I (FCS or FBS) history (regular season or postseason) while his 495 yards of total offense, four touchdowns scored and seven TDs responsible for were all ASU postseason records.

ATTENDANCE: 23,010 Unlike its first two trips to Chattanooga for the national championship game, Appalachian wasted no time in getting on the board in the 2007 title tilt, as it forced Delaware to punt after a three-and-out on the opening possession then promptly marched 58 yards in just six plays to take a 7-0 lead. Buoyed by spectacular downfield blocking from his offensive lineman, Richardson took a screen pass from Armanti Edwards and needed to beat just one UD defender at the goal line.

APPALACHIAN 7 • DELAWARE 0 10:47 TO GO • FIRST QUARTER Delaware appeared to grab its first momentum of the evening when future first-round draft pick Joe Flacco tossed a 39-yard touchdown to Mark Duncan with 1:10 remaining before halftime, seemingly cutting ASU’s lead to two touchdowns heading into the locker room. However, just 26 seconds later, the Mountaineers took the momentum back for good when Edwards found Dexter Jackson for a 72-yard touchdown that extended the ASU advantage back to 21 points. Delaware would get no closer the rest of the evening.

With Richardson and the majority of ASU’s starters watching from the sideline, senior Trey Elder capped the rout with a 53-yard touchdown scamper that brought the Black and Gold contingent pouring out of the stands and onto the sidelines with more than three minutes still to play. In his last collegiate game, Richardson came up huge once again on FCS football’s biggest stage, finishing with 145 total yards (118 rushing, 27 receiving) and three of ASU’s nine touchdowns but the most memorable play of the evening was undoubtedly the touchdown run by Elder, who was ASU’s starter behind center in the 2005 title-game victory over Northern Iowa but is best known for the unselfishness that he displayed in backing up a pair of all-America signal-callers in Richie Williams and Armanti Edwards during his four years in the Black and Gold.

“It means a lot because this is what you play for, to win championships. To do it three times is a heck of a way to go out.” — Three-time national champion running back Kevin Richardson

APPALACHIAN 42 • DELAWARE 14 6:02 TO GO • FOURTH QUARTER

With a 21-point lead early in the third quarter, Appalachian methodically marched down the field and capped a 14-play, 67-yard drive with an eight-yard touchdown pass from Edwards to Richardson. Richardson accounted for 29 of the drive’s 67 yards, including the eight-yard touchdown play in which he snuck out of the backfield and down the left sideline completely unnoticed by the Blue Hen defense for what might have been the easiest of his 74 career scores. Richardson’s eighth touchdown in three national championship games came on a six-yard run midway through the fourth quarter. Richardson was the workhorse once again on the scoring drive, as he picked up 51 yards on the possession and went over the 100-yard rushing plateau for the 19th time in his illustrious career.

History and Traditions

2012 Appalachian State FOOTBALL YOSEF

HISTORY AND TRADITIONS

osef is mountain talk for “yourself,” with the idea being that if you are an Appalachian alumnus, fan or friend and have a heart filled with black and gold, you are Yosef.

In preparing the layout for the 1942 edition of Appalachian’s annual yearbook, The Rhododendron,

editor James Storie and associate editor Elizabeth South (who later married in June 1942) were talking with freshman Lloyd S. Isaacs and Bill Mitchell of Observer Publishing about being one picture short of a perfectly balanced annual.

The result of their chatter was the creation of a character named Dan’l Boone Yoseff from Appalachian.

He was presented as a member of the 1941-42 freshman class.

Each member of the foursome deflected credit for the creation of Yosef. Although called the

Mountaineers, Appalachian had no mascot prior to Yosef. There were no plans in 1942 for Yosef to continue and evolve into what he is today.

His initial publication was such a hit that students went so far as to want to order picture packages

of Yosef instead of pictures of themselves. Undoubtedly, the caricature, the name and the idea appealed to Appalachian students.

There is a controversy as to where the original image of Yosef came from, and who was responsible for

the picture. Accounts mention having a bookstore staff member generate a sketch, but an artist in Charlotte has also been credited with the creation of the mountain man.

The next mention of the fictional character

came during the years of 1946-49 when Yoseff served as a guest editorial writer in the student newspaper (The Appalachian). He wrote using mountain colloquialism with a penchant for misspelled words.

Yoseff dropped the

second “f” and became Yosef in January of 1947. On Nov. 22, 1947, the University sponsored a Mr. and

Mrs. Yosef contest. Skills needed for the titles included hog and chicken calling. The first mention of Yosef as the mascot of the Mountaineers is a picture in the March 12, 1948 edition of The Appalachian. The photo tabbed him as a perennial freshman. In 1949, John Geffrich, a 48-year-old World War II veteran, was one of the first Yosef mascots. Geffrich helped establish a lineage of male undergraduates

generations of Yosef. In the early 1980s opinions began to sound that Yosef was too ugly and that his appearance needed to be altered. The need for a more dignified mascot, away from the slouchy, flea-bitten character, was evident. Prior to the 1983-84 academic year, a committee comprised of university students, staff and faculty members modernized Yosef’s look through a cartoon-type head and body. Responsible for providing school spirit, Yosef is a member of the cheerleading 1949 A lineage of bearded male Appalachian undergraduates donning coveralls, a pipe and a straw hat began portaying Yosef.

event that it is and Appalachian participates in

one of the oldest and most-heated rivalries in the country.

Appalachian State and Western

Carolina have clashed on the gridiron 76 times. Leading the all-time series by a margin of 57-18-1, Appalachian has dominated the rivalry for most of its duration, but in 1976, the clash between the mountain neighbors gained an added dimension with the development of the Old Mountain Jug.

Prior to the 1976 matchup,

dialogue between Yosef Club Director Wayne Clawson and Cat Club Director Tom Bommer developed with hopes to heighten the rivalry between the foes. Clawson and Bommer promoted the jug idea to alumni, while Appalachian sports information Director Rick Layton and Western Carolina SID Steve White were charged with drumming up media exposure for it.

Appalachian bookstore manager Roby Triplett donated the Jug, which weighs

approximately 25 pounds. Capped with a traditional cork, it is a replica of one used to transport homemade corn whiskey. His wife, the late Dee Triplett, a science and biology teacher at Hardin Park Elementary School in Boone, painted the Jug gold with the purple Catamount on one side and the black Mountaineer on the other side. Excluding minor touchups, the Jug and its logos have not been altered since their creation.

HISTORY AND TRADITIONS

With the winner of the annual fray retaining possession of the Jug until the

next year’s matchup, the trophy has made Boone its nearly permanent home, as Appalachian holds a commanding 29-7 advantage over Western Carolina since the inception of the Battle for the Old Mountain Jug in 1976.

After winning four of the first five battles for the Jug, ASU dropped four in a row to

WCU from 1981-84. Head coach Sparky Woods helped the Mountaineers return the jug to Boone for an impressive string of 13-consecutive wins from 1985-97 that carried into the tenure of present ASU head coach, Jerry Moore.

Western Carolina put a halt to the ASU win streak by handing the Apps a 23-6

setback in 1998. Appalachian returned the Jug to Boone in 1999 and successfully defended it for five-straight years before the Catamounts took back possession for just the second time in two decades with a 30-27 triumph in 2004.

Western’s possession of the Jug was short-lived once again, as Appalachian took

it back in 2005 and has gone on to defeat Western each of the last seven years. Highlighting ASU’s current string of seven-straight wins over WCU are the three biggest margins of victory since the inception of the Jug — a 35-7 rout in 2005, a 79-35 In addition to Appalachian’s seven-game overall winning streak in the series, the

Mountaineers have won 14-straight games played in Boone, with their last home loss to the Catamounts coming in 1984.

RETIRED NUMBERS NO. 23 JOHN SETTLE

n Nov. 22, 1986, before his last regular-season game at Kidd

Brewer Stadium, the legendary John Settle became the first ASU football player to have his number (23) retired.

Settle’s career established him

as Appalachian’s all-time leader in almost every rushing category. Settle displayed courage every step of the way. His pride and respect for the game set the standard of excellence by which all Mountaineer athletes, past, present and future, strive to perpetuate.

From 1983 through 1986,

Settle graced the Appalachian backfield with steadfast courage and determination. He finished his career as the school’s all-time leading rusher with 4,409 yards and 43 touchdowns. He presently holds 24 Appalachian

records. At the time of his departure from Boone, he was the third-ranked rusher in NCAA Division I-AA football history.

Settle, a criminal justice major while at Appalachian, was named the Southern

Conference Player and Male Athlete of the Year as a senior, after rushing for 1,661 yards and 20 touchdowns. One of the highlights of his season was his five-touchdown day in the Homecoming victory over Davidson on Nov. 4, 1986.

The two-time All-American had a knack for rising to the occasion in the most

important games. In Appalachian’s first NCAA I-AA Playoff game in school history, on Nov. 29, 1986, Settle dazzled the crowd with 236 yards on 37 carries and a touchdown in the 28-26 defeat to Nicholls State.

His excellence continued at the professional level with the Atlanta Falcons. In

1988, Settle became the first rookie free agent in NFL history to gain over 1,000 yards in a season. During that year, he gained 1,594 total yards (1,024 rushing and 570 receiving) and was voted to the Pro Bowl, the all-star game of the NFL, in Honolulu, Hawaii. His fabled playing days came to a close with the Washington Redskins. He was rewarded for his hard work with a 1991 Super Bowl championship ring with the Redskins.

Settle’s career continued to evolve as his playing days paved the way for a

future in coaching. He began his coaching career by assisting with running backs at Appalachian in 1994. From 1995-1998, Settle served as an offensive assistant for the Cleveland Browns and later the Baltimore Ravens. His duties in the NFL involved coordinating the game plan and working with the running backs, special teams, and strength and conditioning. His experienced football mind was also used in the

evaluation of personnel.

In 1998, Settle returned to the

college game as the running backs coach at Fresno State. After eight seasons at FSU, he spent five seasons in the same position at the University of Wisconsin. In 2011, he returned to North Carolina as the running backs coach of the NFL’s Carolina Pathers. Of his time in Boone, Settle says: “Appalachian helped lay the foundation for who and what I am today. As time moves on, I appreciate the days I spent in Boone more and more. The people, the fans, the University and the family environment that surrounds the community are something that I have not encountered since my days in Boone. Currently the Carolina Panthers’ running backs coach, John Settle enjoyed a sixyear NFL playing career.

I hope that someday I will have the opportunity to give back to a place that has given so much to me.”

NO. 32 DEXTER COAKLEY

erhaps the most decorated player in the illustrious history of Appalachian State University football, Appalachian retired Dexter Coakley’s No. 32 on April 19, 2005. From 1993-96, Coakley set or tied six school records, earned a slew of personal accolades and helped lead Appalachian to 32 victories and two NCAA I-AA playoff appearances. The Mt. Pleasant, S.C. native made an immediate impact on the ASU squad, as he led the Apps with 141 total tackles as a freshman in 1993, en route to Southern Conference Freshman of the Year honors. Things only got better for the hard-hitting linebacker, both individually and for the Mountaineers. In 1994, he racked up 155 tackles to earn the first of three SoCon Defensive Player of the Year awards. Perhaps more importantly, he helped lead ASU back to the I-AA playoffs after a oneyear hiatus and a first-round, overtime Appalachian retired Dexter Coakley’s victory over No. 7 New Hampshire No. 32 on April 19, 2005. before falling at second-ranked Boise State in the national quarterfinals. As a junior, Coakley led his squad to a perfect 11-0 regular season, becoming just the ninth team in 30 years to claim the SoCon crown with an undefeated, untied league record (8-0). For the second-straight season, Coakley hauled in SoCon Defensive Player of the Year and first-team All-America accolades after racking up 150 tackles. He also earned the inaugural Buck Buchanan Award, given to the top defensive player in I-AA. Coakley capped his second-to-none collegiate career in 1996 by leading Appalachian in tackles for the third time with 166. He earned SoCon Defensive Player of the Year and first-team All-America honors for the third time, while also claiming his second-straight Buck Buchanan Award. He remains the only two-time winner of I-AA football’s most prestigious defensive honor and the only Mountaineer to garner AllAmerica status for three years. No. 32 remains ASU’s all-time career leader in total tackles (616), solo tackles (350), assisted tackles (266), double-figure tackle games (38) and 20-tackle games (7). He is tied for the school mark with two-consecutive 20-tackle games, a feat he achieved twice, versus Georgia Southern and Marshall in 1995 and against East Tennessee State and Furman in ‘96. Following the end of his career in the High Country, Coakley became the secondhighest drafted player in Appalachian history when the Dallas Cowboys selected him in the third round (65th overall pick) of the 1997 NFL Draft. His impact in the NFL was as immediate as his impact at ASU, as he started all 16 games for the Cowboys as a rookie in ‘97. In 127 games as a pro, he has registered 687 tackles, 10 interceptions, seven sacks and four forced fumbles and has missed only one game in eight seasons due to injury. He earned Pro Bowl appearances in 1999, 2001 and ‘03. After spending the first eight years of his professional career in Dallas, Coakley spent the 2005 and ‘06 seasons with the St. Louis Rams. He retired from the NFL in 2007. In recognition of his outstanding collegiate career, Coakley was inducted into the Southern Conference Hall of Fame on May 24, 2011 and became the first Mountaineer inducted in the College Football Hall of Fame on July 16, 2011. An active member of the community, Coakley received the Cowboys Unsung Hero Award in 2002, as selected by his teammates and fans. He has been involved with many charitable programs throughout and following his professional football career, including the Salvation Army, the Children’s Cancer Fund Fashion Show, Dallas Cowboys Courage House, and Let Us Play! Sports Camp for Girls Coakley and his wife, Nicole, have a daughter, Trinity, and a son, Zahn. The family resides in Dallas, Texas, where Dexter has a career in commercial real estate and land development in addition Dexter Coakley played eight of his 10 NFL seasons for the Dallas Cowboys and to his continued work with youth and charity organizations. made three Pro Bowl appearances.

HISTORY AND TRADITIONS

APPALACHIAN HEROES

ROB BEST, SHAWN ELLIOTT & STACY SEARELS

s the Appalachian State football team departed Johnson City, Tenn. on Sept. 30, 2000, the most shocking thing to happen that night had been Joe Burchette’s evolution from third-string quarterback to starter in a 30-13 win at East Tennessee State. As October began a couple of hours later, however, who took the bulk of snaps from center was the farthest thing from any Mountaineer’s mind. As the ASU buses rounded a corner on Route 105 in Foscoe six miles from home around 12:30 in the morning, they came upon a fiery accident that appeared to involve a van and a car. Not long after the buses came to a stop, someone on the lead bus recognized the van as the one transporting the football team’s student trainers, managers and videographers. Shouts of, “That’s our van!” were followed quickly by the buses’ occupants scrambling to get to the van. The first three people out of the bus were offensive coaches Stacy Searels, Rob Best and Shawn Elliott. “The car was engulfed in flames,“ said Best, “and our biggest concern was that it might spread to the van.” According to the North Carolina Highway Patrol, a 1989 Audi station wagon driven by John V. White, III crossed the center line going about 60 miles per hour in a 35 mph zone and hit the 2000 Dodge Ram van head on. The car immediately burst into flames and White is believed to have died instantly. Head coach Jerry Moore attempted to help the driver of the car, but “there was nothing anyone could do. The whole car was just a mass of flames, and he was pinned in there.” As Searels, Best and Elliott reached the van, they found that two of the 13 passengers were still in the van: assistant athletic trainer Tony Barnett, the driver of the van, and Searels’ student assistant coach Jonathan Taylor. Searles ripped open the mangled door to the van and pulled Taylor out. Barnett was trapped by a tangled seat belt and an inflated air bag. “Tony was pinned in the seat,” said Best. “Stacy dragged Jonathan out and Shawn and I both grabbed the driver’s seat and yanked it back to try and get Tony free. Stacy came back and helped us get him out.” “Stacy got in there and all but ripped the whole seat out of that van,” added Moore. “Fire was everywhere, but he had Tony in his arms and was getting him back toward the buses.” The 13 passengers were now out of the van, but in varying stages of injury, pain and shock, and many were still dangerously close to the burning wreck. “When we first ran up, there were people just kind of lying on the ground,” said sophomore wide receiver Joe Hamilton, “we grabbed a couple of the people and moved them away from the scene.” Jake Stroot, team video coordinator and Appalachian Sports Network sideline reporter, had managed to get out of the van, but could get no further. “I got out of the van and I couldn’t walk,” said Stroot. “(Neil Cornatzer, Aaron Dobbins and Daniel Jeremiah) carried me like 50 yards away.” “About four to six minutes after we got them out,” said Best, “the van ignited. (The fire) spread pretty fast.” Best called the scene “unbelievable” as head athletic trainer Andy Massey examined the injured and the players attended to them. “It was a complete role reversal,” said Best. “The players had the kids who were in the van wrapped up in blankets and were applying pressure to stop bleeding wounds. The response and composure a lot of those guys showed was just amazing.” “They worked on me for six years now to try and keep me on the field,” said senior wide receiver Joey Gibson, who missed the 1999 season with a knee injury. “It was kind of a flip to see us working on them.” “Everybody who was out there helping, being nothing but 10 or 15 yards away from that van, was at a risk,” said Moore. “They ought to hang a medal around everyone’s neck.” “That was hero stuff going on,” said defensive coordinator John Wiley. When EMS services arrived minutes later, many of the injured were prepared to be loaded onto ambulances. Barnett and Taylor were the first to be transported out. Taylor was taken to Cannon Memorial Hospital and life-flighted to Johnson City (Tenn.) Memorial Hospital, while Barnett was admitted at Watauga Medical Center. Of the other 11 passengers, five were taken to WMC and five to CMH. Only the frontseat passenger was spared a hospital visit, due to a seatbelt and air bag. Most of the injuries consisted of broken bones and cuts. In all, only seven stayed the night in the hospital and after 10 days only Taylor remained hospitalized in serious, but stable condition with a severe concussion and some broken bones. After the injured were taken away, the team buses were allowed through the accident scene to get home at about 2 a.m. A quiet 10 minute ride was followed by a team meeting. Before any of the equipment was unloaded the players and coaches gathered in the Mountaineer

Rob Best, Stacy Searels and Shawn Elliott were presented with the NCAA Award of Valor, recognizing individuals who, when confronted with a situation involving personal danger, averted or minimized potential disaster by courageous action or noteworthy bravery.

Room in Owens Field House and prayed. Some prayed silently, while others verbalized their hopes and wishes. That early morning meeting is hardly the end of the story, however. Coaches still needed to coach and players still needed to play, and those were not the easiest things to do for awhile. Athletics director Roachel Laney spent every day for the next week at the different hospitals, as did Massey and the coaching staff. Someone from the ASU football team visited Johnson City daily to be with Jonathan and his family. The staff also learned the nature of their relationship with the rest of the Southern Conference coaches and teams. East Tennessee State made extra copies of their game films to replace the ASU copies lost in the accident. Also, the ETSU branch of Fellowship of Christian Athletes met Taylor’s mother and held prayer meetings at Johnson City Memorial every night. On top of all this, the team had to prepare to face sixth-ranked and SoCon rival Furman the next Saturday on regional television and deal with the attention from media. “I hear about a different hero every day,” said Moore after listening to different people’s stories. “We’re grateful and fortunate that we didn’t lose anyone. But one life was lost and our hearts and prayers are with that family, too.” “Everyone had their own heroes,” said Stroot. “Everyone had two or three guys helping them out. It’s really a big family. You realize how much everyone cares for you.” It was an emotional week, which was capped by an 18-17, come-from-behind win over the Paladins. As the final seconds ticked off the clock, Searels searched for a cell phone on the field. Finding one, he dialed the number for Taylor’s room in Johnson City. After getting Jonathan on the phone Searels proclaimed, “We won, Jonathan. We did it. We did it for you.” “I’ll never be prouder of a program, no matter what happens on the field,” said Moore, long before the Furman contest. “They’ve learned a lot about priorities and how fragile life and health can be. They’ve showed me they have qualities that will serve them well a long time after they don’t play football games anymore.” For their actions that night, Searels, Best and Elliott were presented with the NCAA Award of Valor. The award is presented only in years when there is a worthy candidate or candidates. It recognizes a current intercollegiate athletics coach or administrator, or a current or former varsity letter winner at an NCAA institution, who, when confronted with a situation involving personal danger, averted or minimized potential disaster by courageous action or noteworthy bravery. In all, the NCAA Award of Valor has only been presented 13 times since its inception in 1974. Best, who left ASU after the 2002 season to be the offensive coordinator at the University at Buffalo, is currently the head coach at Pilot Point High School in suburban Dallas, Texas. Elliott and Searels both serve as offensive-line coaches at college-football powers — Elliott at South Carolina and Searels at Texas.

BRIAN STOKES

any events on the gridiron during Appalachian’s run to consecutive NCAA Division I national championships in 2005 and ‘06 were described as heroic. However, ASU benefitted from the presence of a true hero on the field and in the locker room during the championship campaigns. Brian Stokes came to ASU in 2005 as a 26-year-old freshman. Prior to his arrival in the High Country, Stokes spent five years in the United States Marine Corps, serving deployments to over 10 countries during his military career, including two tours of duty in Iraq. During Stokes’ second tour in Iraq in 2004, the former all-state linebacker and fullback at Williams H.S. in Burlington, N.C. served in over 200 combat missions, including the invasion of Fullujah. A sergeant in the 2nd Battalion, 2nd Marines, Stokes was the commanding officer in a humvee near Lutayfiah in August 2004 when his convoy was the target of two 200-kilogram roadside bombs, which blew the 300-pound doors off Stokes’ humvee when detonated within yards of the armored vehicle. Everyone in the vehicle survived, but Stokes suffered shrapnel wounds in his right arm and lost the majority of hearing in his right ear. Following his release from active duty, Stokes and fellow Marine Wayne Norman enrolled at Appalachian, where head coach Jerry Moore welcomed the heroes with open arms. Both were on the field for the opening kickoff in the 2005 home opener versus Coastal Carolina. Stokes was a regular contributor on special teams and played an important role in the Mountaineers winning their first-ever national title. Little did Stokes know that just one week prior to the 21-16 victory over Northern Iowa in the 2005 NCAA DIvision I-AA national championship game, he was awarded a Purple Heart for the injuries he sustained in the roadside bomb attack 16 months earlier. He wasn’t aware of the recognition until the Purple Heart arrived in the mail in February 2006. Due to injury-riddled stints as a member of the football programs at East Carolina and Elon following Stokes’ standout highschool career, the former Shrine Bowl participant was granted just two years of eligibility at ASU by the NCAA. He returned for his final gridiron campaign in 2006 and again was a key special-teams performer for Appalachian’s second-straight national title march. Stokes finished his career with eight tackles in 29 games and capped his football-playing days with an appearance in the Texas vs. The Nation All-Star Classic in El Paso, Texas. His story has been told in dozens of newspapers and on television programs across the region and nation, highlighted by an appearance on CBS’ Late, Late Show with Craig Ferguson in 2005. He was married in July 2007 and graduated with Purple Heart recipient Brian Stokes a degree in criminal justice in 2008. A was a special-teams standout for the movie chronicling Stokes’ journey is in early Mountaineers in 2005 and ‘06. production stages.

2012 Appalachian State FOOTBALL HISTORY AND TRADITIONS

MEMORABLE GAMES

October 12, 1968

NOVEMBER 8, 1975

Holding a 17-14 lead at the half, Appalachian exploded out of the tunnel after the intermission, scoring two touchdowns in the third quarter and three more in the fourth. It was a record-breaking day for the Mountaineers that included 35 first downs, 572 yards on the ground, and 654 total yards. The Mountaineer defense stunned the Bears by yielding just 59 rushing yards one week after the Bears received national fame by racking up 900 total yards of offense. Sophomore Emmitt Hamilton rushed for 215 yard and two touchdowns in his greatest performance in a Mountaineer jersey. The Mountaineers played before a stunned Lenoir-Rhyne crowd of 12,500 fans. The Bears’ frustration was evident when a bench-clearing brawl broke out with 16 seconds left in the contest.

Robbie Price put on an offensive show before 47,489 fans on hand at Williams-Brice Stadium, who saw seven scoring drives over 70 yards, four of which went longer than 80 yards in a 39-34 triumph over South Carolina. After South Carolina scooped up a Price fumble and returned it for the first points of the day, Appalachian got on the board with a 77-yard drive that was capped off by a John Craig score. The touchdown was especially sweet for Craig who began his career with the Gamecocks two years earlier. Appalachian led at the half, 24-14, but South Carolina came out quick in the third quarter, and reduced the ASU lead to four when Jeff Grantz scored from two yards out. Price answered with a 32-yard touchdown pass. However, South Carolina scored late in the third quarter to make it 30-27. The Gamecocks drove 81 yards take the lead, 34-30. However, the Mountaineers responded with a 16-yard touchdown pass from Price to a diving Donnie Holt. Mike Staton sealed the win with an interception that led to a Mountaineer field goal to make the final score 39-34.

APPS BREAK UP PAT ATTEMPT TO SAVE WIN APPALACHIAN 7, WESTERN KENTUCKY 6

Registering three interceptions, four fumble recoveries, and a blocked punt, Appalachian’s stellar defense came up with the winning plays all afternoon in a defensive battle. Midway through the third quarter, quarterback Steve Loflin hit Boone’s homegrown hero Richard Agle for a 78-yard pass and catch for their only touchdown of the day. Managing a shutout late in the fourth quarter, the Apps gave up a touchdown on Clarence Jackson’s one-yard plunge with 1:52 left in the contest to lead by one, at 7-6. The Hilltoppers decided to go for two and the win, which proved costly when the Mountaineer defense broke up the extra point pass attempt in the endzone to save the victory.

Backup quarterback Phil Coccioletti not only replaced injured Roscoe Batts in the third quarter, but took over the Mountaineers’ run-oriented “Y Offense” and converted it to a passing attack. Down 21-7 late in the third quarter, Coccioletti connected with split end Bob Steelman for a 35-yard touchdown. On Coccioletti’s second drive, he stunned the Terrier offense with another long ball connecting with Charlie Haugabrook for a 36-yard strike. He finished the drive with a one-yard dive into the endzone. Late in the fourth quarter, Coccioletti drove Appalachian deep in Wofford territory before Jim Tucker’s six-yard scamper for the go-ahead score. The Mountaineers balanced offense recorded 191 yards in the air and 190 on the ground. Place kicker Greg Clark was 4-for-4 on extra point tries. Clark went on to establish an NCAA record with 56 consecutive good PAT kicks.

WISHBONE ALLOWS GROUND GAME TO PREVAIL APPALACHIAN 35, WESTERN CAROLINA 27

Touted as an aerial display, quarterbacks Mike Pussey (WCU) and Steve Brown (ASU) drew 17,124 fans to Conrad Stadium for what was billed to be a passing thriller. The Mountaineers used an element of surprise by utilizing the rushing game in a 35-27 win. Pussey connected on 16 passes for 231 yards and a touchdown, while Brown only put the ball in the air 13 times. Trailing 27-14 at halftime, it was the newly constructed wishbone formation that sparked a rally. The Mountaineers totaled 266 rushing yards in the victory. The Mountaineer defense allowed just 37 yards through the air and two first downs in the second half.

ROOKIE CARRIES APPS TO VICTORY APPALACHIAN 27, WESTERN CAROLINA 24

With 15,850 fans on hand to witness the tandem of Steve Brown and Rick Beasley play in their final game at Conrad Stadium, it was freshman Alvin Parker who stole the show in a 27-24 come from behind win. Beasley, who finished his career as the NCAA’s fifth all-time leading receiver, went down in the first quarter with an injury. Minus his top target, Brown was limited to 166 yards through the air. Fullback Pete Carmelo went down in the second half, so it was the 5-11, 185-pound Parker who got the call and became the first 100-yard rusher of the season for the Mountaineers.

HARMON TAMES WILD DOGS WITH 47-YARDER APPALACHIAN 23, EAST CAROLINA 21

In a game that both teams entered undefeated, placekicker Jerry Harmon proved to be the difference, converting a 47-yard field goal with 32 seconds left for the 23-21 victory over East Carolina. Sophomore Devon Ford worked his way through ECU’s touted “Wild Dogs” defense, amassing 231 all-purpose yards. The Mountaineers carried a 20-0 advantage into the locker room. The Pirates quickly countered in the third quarter behind Ken Strayhorn who rushed for two touchdowns bringing the deficit down to six points, at 20-14. ECU claimed the lead, at 21-20, midway through the fourth quarter when halfback Jimmy Howe scored on a 65-yard run. Late in the game, the Mountaineers took advantage of a short Pirate punt that gave them the ball on their own 45. The Apps used a pair of passes to set the stage for Harmon’s long field goal. John Craig (35), a transfer from South Carolina, scored ASU’s first touchdown and Robbie Price (5) threw for two touchdowns and ran for another in Appalachian’s 3934 win at Williams-Brice Stadium in 1975.

With ominous weather and a matchup against the No. 1 team in the nation, 19,781 rain-soaked fans spurred Appalachian to a 10-point victory and triumphantly tore down the goal posts. A dominant performance by the Mountaineer defense keyed the win. Dexter Coakley led the Mountaineers with 15 tackles, three for losses, two pass breakups, and a forced fumble. Johnny Smith, who spent his first three years at fullback, notched seven tackles, a fumble recovery, a sack, and an interception that he returned 70-yards for a touchdown in the fourth quarter. In only his second start, Scott Satterfield threw for 113 yards and ran for 30 more, including a score.

For nearly three quarters, it seemed as though Appalachian would pull off perhaps the biggest win ever by an NCAA Division I-AA school over a I-A opponent. But a 33-yard touchdown pass with just 38 seconds left to play gave perennial-power Auburn a narrow 22-15 win over the Mountaineers before 78,123 at Jordan-Hare Stadium. After Auburn took a 7-0 lead less than seven minutes in, Appalachian responded with 15-straight points to take an eight-point advantage deep into the third quarter. The Tigers evened the score at 15-15 late in the third period and marched 77 yards in just 1:04 to score the winning touchdown in the final minute.

Scott Satterfield proved his mettle as an All-Southern Conference quarterback by ignoring the pressure on fourth down and slinging the ball to the endzone, where Ron Gilliam’s diving grab saved the Mountaineers’ perfect regular season and gave them a 28-24 victory. Unbeaten entering the final game of the regular season, the Mountaineers had plenty of confidence travelling to face the winless Bulldogs. But the Mountaineers needed everything it could muster, including the pass from Satterfield to Gilliam with 1:39 left in the contest for the comeback triumph. Satterfield who ran for 80 yards and passed for 176, had no problem sending the ball to Gilliam who was a converted defensive back with only four catches on the season.

Appalachian forced four turnovers, including Corey Hall’s second interception as time expired, to claim a 17-16 win over No. 1 Georgia Southern before 19,981 at Kidd Brewer Stadium. The triumph was ASU’s second ever over a top-ranked team, almost five years to the day after it knocked off No. 1 Marshall at KBS. Without the benefit of an offensive touchdown, the Mountaineers ran out to a 17-0 lead. Weslan Hunter returned a fumble 43 yards for a score and Luke Manuel fell on another Eagle cough-up and the Apps took the seeminlgy comfortable 17-point lead with less than five minutes to play in the third quarter.

Backup signal-caller Bake Baker was called upon in the fourth quarter at Georgia Southern to create what head coach Jerry Moore dubbed a “spark.” A spark is what he got. Baker took over and led the Mountaineers on a 21-point rally with just over 10 minutes remaining in the contest. The Mountaineer offense was desperate for production. The defense was not much better, with five players sidelined with injuries. In his 10-plus minutes of action Baker converted three scoring drives, including the game-winner, a 68-yard pass and catch to Otis Smith with 3:13 remaining in the game. Baker ended the game 8-of-10 passing, for 159 yards and two touchdowns. Prior to his showing in Statesboro, he had completed just three passes in his career.

Daniel Jeremiah’s one-yard touchdown run in overtime gave Appalachian head coach Jerry Moore his 100th career victory, a 30-27 triumph over Wake Forest in Winston-Salem. Moore’s 100th win was his fourth over Wake in 10 seasons at the helm of the Mountaineers. Appalachian jumped out to a 10-0 lead in the first quarter thanks to a 27-yard field goal by Stuart Jones and a 47-yard touchdown run by Terrence McCall. The Demon Deacons scored 17 of the game’s next 20 points to take a 17-13 advantage into the fourth quarter. After Jones’ third field goal of the game cut the ASU deficit to 17-16 early in the final period, Jeremiah hooked up with Joey Gibson for a 57-yard touchdown and a two-point conversion made it 24-17 ASU with 5:28 to go. However, Wake Forest responded with a 13-play, 74-yard drive, capped by a seven-yard touchdown pass from Brian Kuklick to Jammie Deese that tied the contest with only 53 seconds left to play.

THE ANATOMY OF AN UPSET

Michigan came roaring back in the second half and took a 32-31 lead on a 54-yard touchdown run by Mike Hart with less than five minutes to play.

Things looked bleak for the Mountaineers when the Wolverines intercepted an Edwards pass on the first play after Hart’s touchdown, but freshman Brian Quick blocked a U-M field-goal attempt to give the Apps the ball back with 1:37 left to play.

THE AFTERMATH • Appalachian’s shocking win over college football’s all-time winningest program was the first ever for an NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision team over a nationally ranked D-I Football Bowl Subdivision opponent. • A crowd estimated to be as large as 10,000 welcomed the Mountaineers back to Kidd Brewer Stadium later that evening. • The Apps were the darlings of the national media for weeks to come, highlighted by a Sept. 2, 2007 press conference that was televised live by ESPNEWS and Dexter Jackson’s appearance on the cover of the Sept. 10, 2007 edition of Sports Illustrated. • The victory prompted the Associated Press to change its 71-year-old policy and allow all Division I teams, regardless of subdivision, to receive votes in its Top 25 poll. • Appalachian went on to post a 13-2 overall record and win its third-consecutive NCAA Division I Football national championship. • Michigan went on to post an 9-4 overall record and No. 18 ranking in the final 2007 AP poll. The Wolverines finished second in the Big Ten standings and defeated defending BCS national champion Florida and Heisman Trophy winner Tim Tebow, 41-35, in the Capital One Bowl on New Year’s Day.

After a 46-yard pass from Chad Henne to Mario Manningham, Michigan had an opportunity to win the ballgame on a 37-yard field goal. However, Corey Lynch made the “block heard ‘round the world,” scooped up the loose ball and returned it 62 yards as the clock expired.

www.GoASU.com • www.PlayAtTheRock.com

espite the standard salutation afforded to all visitors to Kidd Brewer Stadium, The Rock has offered anything but a warm welcome to opponents since it opened as Conrad Stadium on Sept. 15, 1962. In addition to boasting of the most picturesque settings for any sports venue in North America, with Appalachian State’s beautiful, modern campus and the natural beauty of the High Country serving as a backdrop, Kidd Brewer Stadium also stakes claim to being one of the toughest venues in the nation for a visiting team to leave with a victory. The 2012 season marks the 50th anniversary of the opening of the venerable stadium, where Appalachian boasts a 215-63-5 all-time record, including wins in 61 of its last 66 home games. Along with the scenic surroundings and plethora of Mountaineer victories, Appalachian State faithful also enjoy one of college football’s premier gameday atmospheres at The Rock. Since the beginning of the 2005 season, more than 1 million fans have passed through the KBS turnstiles with attendance surpassing the stadium’s official seating capacity for 40-straight regular-season games going into the 2012 campaign. Since 2005, the average attendance for a regularseason game at Kidd Brewer Stadium has been 26,603, a mark that comes in at over 136 percent of the stadium’s average official seating capacity during that time. Appalachian has led NCAA Division I FCS in regular-season attendance each of the past five seasons. To meet the demand of Mountaineer fans, Appalachian State has added nearly 7,000 seats to the stadium over the past five years. Kidd Brewer Stadium’s official seating capacity was 16,650 in 2007 but three separate expansion projects in the last five years have upped the number of seats to 23,150. Officially opened on September 15, 1962 as Conrad Stadium, in honor of former University trustee and R.J.

3-TIME NATIONAL CHAMPIONS

Reynolds executive William J. Conrad, the stadium was originally constructed with 10,000 permanent seats. Conrad Stadium was renamed on Sept. 3, 1988 in honor of Kidd Brewer, one of the most successful head coaches in Appalachian football history and a colorful part of North Carolina history. Brewer, a Winston-Salem, N.C., native who served as head football coach of the Mountaineers from 1935-38, complied a 30-5-3 overall mark in his four seasons at the helm of the Apps. An All-American at Duke, Brewer’s 1937 squad was unbeaten and unscored upon in the regular season. After leaving Appalachian, Brewer started a sales career, but shortly thereafter reported for active duty in World War II. He served as a Naval lieutenant in the Pacific. After the war, Brewer was secretary to U.S. Sen. Josiah W. Bailey (D-N.C.). Upon Bailey’s death in office Brewer served his replacement, Sen. William B. Umstead, as administrative assistant. Brewer returned to North Carolina and ran for lieutenant governor in 1956. Between campaigns for governor (1964) and state court of appeals (1968), he made a name for himself as a developer, insurance salesman and philanthropist. The stadium has undergone many facelifts since its construction, but still stands as a beacon to the Mountaineer faithful. Seating capacity was expanded from its original 10,000 to 18,000 with the addition of 8,000 seats on the stadium’s west side following the 1978 season. Completion of an extensive renovation and restoration project on the original 10,000 seats in 1995 readjusted the permanent seating capacity to 16,650. The capacity remained at 16,650 until 2008, when a 4,400-seat upper deck on the stadium’s east side and the renovation of handicapped seating areas upped the amount of permanent seats to 20,150.

In 2009, The Rock wrapped up its most extensive facelift to date with the opening of the 120,000-square-foot Appalachian Athletics Center. The Appalachian Athletics Center, which was officially unveiled on Sept. 12, 2009 when ASU hosted McNeese State , houses state-of-theart strength and conditioning, athletic training and academic facilities to benefit all 20 of Appalachian’s varsity sports, as well as extensive locker rooms, meeting space and offices for ASU football and coaches and centralized offices for athletics administrators. The Appalachian Athletics Center also provides additional stadium seating in the way of 18 luxury suites, 600 club seats and spacious club-level and Chancellor’s Box areas that offer spectacular views of the playing surface and campus. When the facility opened in 2009, Kidd Brewer Stadium’s official seating capacity rose to 21,650. In 2011, the stadium expanded for the third time in five years when 1,500 seats were added just feet from the playing field in the north endzone, raising the official seating capacity to its current 23,150. Other stadium enhancements throughout the years included the addition of a state-of the-art “AppVision” videoboard that was added in 1999 and enlarged prior to the 2001 season. In 2008, the “AppVision” videoboard was outfitted with a new widescreen display that is nearly twice the size of the previous screen. Kidd Brewer Stadium’s playing field has also been on the cutting edge throughout its history. In 1970, the stadium’s original natural grass was replaced with the Carolinas’ first-ever artificial surface. In 2003, Appalachian became one of the initial collegiate programs in the country to install FieldTurf as its football surface and, in 2011, Kidd Brewer Stadium became the first venue in the nation to feature FieldTurf’s new ‘Revolution’ playing surface.

HISTORY AND TRADITIONS

KIDD BREWER STADIUM THROUGH THE YEARS

ASU YEAR-BY-YEAR RECORDS AT KBS

In 1970, the natural grass playing field was removed from Conrad Stadium and replaced with an artificial surface, the first in the Carolinas.

In 1978, the stadium underwent a massive renovation which included an 8,000-seat expansion and new press box/chancellor’s suite on the stadium’s west side.

Stadium capacity jumped to 18,000 following the extensive renovations in 1978. Another restoration project in 1995 dropped capacity to 16,650.

Re-named Kidd Brewer Stadium in 1988, much of the facility remained largely unchanged from 1978 until the beginning of the 21st century. However, additional renovations became necessary when Appalachian began drawing crowds in excess of 20,000 on a regular basis.

The most extensive renovations in Conrad/Kidd Brewer Stadium history were completed in 2009

In 2011, a school-record three former Mountaineers were selected in the NFL Draft (Mark LeGree, Daniel Kilgore and D.J. Smith). ASU had as many or more draftees than 42 of the 66 programs that play in automatic-qualifying conferences for the Bowl Championship Series. See the inside back cover for all 10 former Mountaineers currently in the NFL.

Appalachian State University

Educating Quality Citizens and Leaders Appalachian State University is located in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Boone, N.C. At an elevation of 3,333 feet, Boone began as a frontier outpost named after pioneer Daniel Boone, who first explored the area in the 1760s. Boone now attracts those seeking a breathtaking location, adventure and a quality education. Appalachian is a member of the 16-campus University of North Carolina system and offers a challenging learning experience. The university combines a small-town atmosphere with a strong academic reputation. Appalachian’s academics are supported by an accomplished faculty, close, personal interaction between students and faculty, and intimate class sizes that average 25 students. Originally founded as a teachers college, Appalachian now cultivates leaders in business, science, the arts, communication, music, nursing, education and other careers. Innovation and creativity are hallmarks of Appalachian graduates, who are leaders in communities in North Carolina and around the world. Appalachian also emphasizes the importance of sustainability and service to communities, both locally and globally. Today, Appalachian is a leader in the fields of energy-focused green technology and the health sciences. Consistently ranked among U.S. News and World Report’s best public universities in the Southeast, Appalachian is also noted as a “best value” by Kiplinger’s Personal Finance magazine and other publications. Appalachian’s 410-acre main campus includes 19 academic buildings, a 210,000-square-foot library, 21 residence halls, three dining facilities and 11 recreational and athletic facilities. Appalachian also operates a living-learning center in New York City and off-campus programs in 10 counties through collaboration with area community colleges.

Athletics excellence Appalachian supports a broad-based athletics program, featuring 10 men’s and 10 women’s intercollegiate teams. The Mountaineers hold NCAA Division I status and have been members of the Southern Conference since 1971. The Mountaineers have won 32 Southern Conference Commissioner’s Cups for overall excellence in men’s athletics, with 2012 being its seventh-straight year to win. No other conference school has won the Commissioner’s Cup more than five times since its inception in 1969-70 and no current SoCon member besides Appalachian has claimed it more than once. Appalachian also has won eight Germann Cups, recognizing overall excellence in women’s athletics. Appalachian is the only school to ever win both the Commissioner’s Cup and the Germann Cup in the same academic year – a feat it has accomplished eight times. Since joining the Southern Conference, the Mountaineers have earned league titles in football, men’s and women’s basketball, volleyball, men’s and women’s cross country, men’s and women’s indoor and outdoor track, wrestling, baseball, men’s soccer and men’s tennis. In football, the Mountaineers won three consecutive NCAA Division I FCS national championship titles in 2005, 2006 and 2007. • 35 percent of Appalachian student-athletes earn a place on the department’s Honor Roll, with a minimum GPA of 3.25. • The nation’s top 10 percent of 2012 NCAA Academic Progress Rate (APR) scores includes three Appalachian athletics programs: men’s cross country, field hockey and football. • 13 of 20 teams at Appalachian have multi-year APR scores above the national averages for their respective sports (beginning 2007-08 and ending 2010-11).

Appalachian Athletics Mission Statement The Department of Athletics at Appalachian State University believes in maintaining the intercollegiate athletics program as an integral part of the University’s overall program of education, with emphasis on and priority given to the high academic quality and standards and the complete development of the student. Appalachian State University provides opportunity and encouragement for student-athletes to progress toward degrees of their choice and to develop athletic abilities in an environment consistent with high standards of academic scholarship, leadership and institutional loyalty. The Department of Athletics is committed to ensuring the general welfare of the student-athlete and to encouraging the highest standards of sportsmanship on behalf of student-athletes, the student body and the University’s supporters. The intercollegiate athlete representing ASU is both a bona-fide student pursuing a degree program and an amateur competitor. Appalachian Athletics is committed to insuring equitable recruitment, participation and treatment of individuals including members of under-represented populations through its athletics administration, staff, coaches, programs and policies. The University’s policy of non-discrimination represents a moral and ethical, not merely a legal, imperative.

The University has determined that its athletics program will meet the necessary qualifications, guidelines and funding to hold membership in Division I of the NCAA. The athletics administration, the faculty athletics representative and the Athletics Council work together to insure that all teams and coaches follow the rules and regulations governing this division. A sound program of intercollegiate athletics should benefit the institution through its effects on students, alumni ad the institution itself. Specifically, it should maintain and improve the loyalty and esprit de corps of the student body, and in strengthening the pride and enthusiasm of the alumni; it should serve as a favorable public relations factor and provide benefits to the participants. Appalachian Athletics Diversity Statement Appalachian athletics promotes an inclusive culture that fosters equitable participation for student-athletes and equitable career opportunities for coaches, administrators and support staff from diverse backgrounds and perspectives.

Who We Are Nestled in the majestic Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, Appalachian State University combines the best attributes of a small liberal arts college with those of a large research university. Known for its value and affordability, Appalachian enrolls more than 17,300 students and offers more than 150 undergraduate and graduate majors. Small classes and close interactions between faculty and students create a strong sense of community, which has become an Appalachian hallmark.

Points of Pride Relevant Degree Programs Originally founded as a teachers college, Appalachian now cultivates leaders in business, science, the arts, communication, music, nursing, education and other careers. Today, Appalachian is a leader in the fields of energy-focused green technology and the health sciences. Quality Academics In its 2012 America’s Best Colleges Guide, U.S. News & World Report ranked Appalachian No. 3 among the top public master-degree granting universities in the South. Appalachian was also included in The Princeton Review’s 2011 “The Best 373 Colleges” publication based on academics as well as student surveys that praised the accessibility of the university’s faculty, quality of academic programs and value. Value and Affordability Appalachian consistently is named a best value by Forbes, The Princeton Review, Consumer’s Digest and Kiplinger’s Personal Finance Magazine for providing a high quality education at the lowest cost to students. Committed to making higher education affordable for every N.C. student, Appalachian offers the ACCESS scholarship program, which has supported students from the state’s lowest-income families by offering a debt-free, four-year university education. The university also includes a textbook rental program that saves a student hundreds of dollars during their undergraduate career.

Outstanding Faculty Ninety-nine percent of Appalachian’s full-time faculty hold doctorate, first professional degree, or other terminal degrees. Small classes, personal attention Personal attention from faculty is a hallmark of the Appalachian experience. Classes average 25 students.

Boone, North Carolina Boone lies in a small valley in the heart of the Southern Appalachians. It is named after the hunter and explorer Daniel Boone, who spent time in the region during the 1760s. Watauga County was formed in 1849 and the Town of Boone incorporated in 1872. Among its accolades are inclusion in National Geographic Adventure magazine’s “Best Places to Live and Play,” Norman Crampton’s “100 Best Small Towns in America,” USA Today’s “10 Great Small Towns with Huge Backyards” and U.S. News and World Report’s “10 Best Places to Retire in the U.S.” Boone is a college town, home to Appalachian State University. Originally Watauga Academy, the institution was formed to educate the mountain children and to ultimately prepare teachers for service through western North Carolina. It became Appalachian State Teachers College in 1929 and joined the University of North Carolina system in 1971. The university serves as a top economic driver followed by a combination of tourism, small business and residential home construction. The Boone area is characterized by mountain culture and casual living. Outdoor activities, cultural events, local dining and unique shops attract visitors from all over the world year-round. From breathtaking scenic views to Boone’s eclectic downtown area, known as King Street, there is something for everyone. One of the highlights of downtown Boone is the university’s Turchin Center for the Visual Arts. It features six gallery spaces and a community education and outreach program. Its exhibitions focus on a blend of recent and historically important artwork and feature nationally and internationally renowned artists as well as many of the finest artists of the region. A wide array of quality arts and cultural events enhance the Boone community. The university’s month-long celebration of performing and visual arts, known as An Appalachian Summer Festival, has brought notable performers such as Paul Taylor Dance Company, London City Opera, Charlie Daniels and the Glenn Miller Orchestra. During the academic year, Appalachian hosts the Performing Arts Series with artists such as Garrison Keillor and the National Symphony Orchestra. Boone offers an uncommon quality of life – that’s why many visitors come for a weekend and stay for a lifetime.

What’s Visible from Kidd Brewer Stadium

State’s Largest Wind Turbine – This community-scale, 100-kilowatt wind turbine stands 153 feet and feeds enough electricity directly to the grid to power 15 homes. It was paid for primarily through student funds and in partnership with the university-affiliated utility, New River Light and Power. Aside from producing clean energy, the turbine serves as an educational monument to Appalachian’s ethic of sustainability. Howard Knob – Located just a half mile from downtown Boone, this peak has an elevation of 4,420 feet. It was named for Benjamin Howard, a Revolutionary War loyalist who fled to a cave there to escape American patriots.
