MARISTFOOTBALL
On Feb. 28, 2008, a press conference
was held at Tenney Stadium at Leonidoff Field to announce that Marist accepted an invitation to join the Pioneer Football League, beginning in 2009. The Red Foxes will become the 10th member of the league, joining Butler, Campbell, Davidson, Dayton, Drake, Jacksonville, Morehead State, San Diego and Valparaiso. “We are proud to be included in a league with schools known nationally for their accomplishments in the classroom and on the football field,” Marist College President Dr. Dennis J. Murray said. “Marist fosters an appreciation of what it means to be a true student-athlete, encouraging success in academics as well as athletics. The colleges and universities in the Pioneer League share this same philosophy, so we feel we have found the right home for our football program.” In 2009, each Pioneer League team will play eight conference games in a round-robin format. Each team will have four league home games and four league road games. The Pioneer League, which was established in 1991, competes in the NCAA Football Championship Subdivision. All of the league’s members are committed to the nonscholarship football model.
MARISTFOOTBALL
“I am very excited with the opportunity to join the Pioneer League in 2009,” said Marist Head Coach Jim Parady, who will be entering his 18th season at the helm in 2009. “The Pioneer League is very competitive, with the last three Mid-Major National Champions coming from it. The league gives us an opportunity to play a national schedule with games from Florida to California. This will help us with recruiting and enable us to attract recruits from all across the country.” “The Pioneer Football League enthusiastically welcomes Marist as our newest member,” PFL commissioner Patty Viverito said. “PFL expansion is a positive step toward growing non-scholarship football, within the league and nationally.” Marist competed as an FCS independent in 2008, but faced two PFL teams in San Diego and Davidson. The Red Foxes closed out their season with a 24-19 win at Davidson on Nov. 15.
TIMELINE
•
The 2009 season marks the 17th year for the Pioneer Football League – the nation’s only nonscholarship NCAA Football Championship Subdivision conference. The PFL is one of only two conferences that sponsor football as its only sport, with the Missouri Valley Football Conference being the other. The PFL is a truly national conference with members on each coast and throughout the nation’s heartland. The league still retains four of its charter members – Butler University, the University of Dayton, Drake University and Valparaiso University, plus the University of San Diego (joining in 1992) – which were joined in 2001 by Davidson College, Jacksonville University and Morehead State University. The league expanded to nine members in 2008 with Campbell University joining the league’s ranks in its first season of intercollegiate football. Marist becomes the PFL’s 10th team this season.
Gridiron Classic
Entering its fourth season, the Gridiron Classic matches the champions of the Pioneer Football League and Northeast Conference in an exempted postseason football contest. This year’s match-up will take place on Saturday, Dec. 5 at the site of the PFL champion. The inaugural Gridiron Classic took place Dec. 2, 2006 with PFL Champion San Diego traveling to NEC Champion Monmouth, San Diego posting a 27-7 victory in front of a national television audience. Here are the results of the previous three Gridiron Classics:
“The Pioneer League is a great fit for our football program, and I’m excited that we will have a chance to showcase our student-athletes and institution on a national level,” Marist Director of Athletics Tim Murray said. “We will be competing in a stable conference that exemplifies the standards and overall experience that we strive to provide for our student-athletes at Marist.” The current football roster is comprised of players from 12 different states, including California, Delaware, Florida, Maryland, New Hampshire, Ohio and Virginia. The Pioneer Football League now includes programs from California, Florida, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, New York, North Carolina and Ohio.

FieldTurf
at Leonidoff Field On October 6, 2007, a new chapter in Marist Athletics began with the dedication of Tenney Stadium at Leonidoff Field. A record crowd of 4,621 was in attendance on a warm, sunny day as the Marist football team took on Duquesne. The stadium’s name honors Tim Tenney, CEO of Pepsi-Cola of the Hudson Valley, who provided the lead gift for the stadium renovation project. The Marist football, men’s soccer, women’s soccer, men’s lacrosse and women’s lacrosse programs call the stadium home, in addition to numerous club and intramural sports. Construction of the stadium started in October 2006 and was completed in October of 2007. The College retained the architectural firm of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill LLP to design, plan and oversee the improvement project. This project enhanced and developed two key areas of the facility - the playing surface itself and spectator seating. In order to serve the five varsity programs that would compete at Tenney Stadium, the need for a synthetic playing surface was obvious. With this in mind, Marist officials selected the industry leader in synthetic playing surfaces, FieldTurf. The renovation project consisted of removing the existing grandstand and press booth along the west side of the field and constructing a new precast grandstand structure along with a modern press booth, media booths and VIP suites along the east side of the field. Additionally, an athletic training room, team and officials’ dressing rooms, restrooms, concessions and storage space were incorporated in the area located under the spectator seating. The new seating includes 1,744 chair-backs in the grandstand, with additional seating located on the West Berm, giving Tenney Stadium a capacity of 5,000. Tenney Stadium at Leonidoff Field hosted the 2007 Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) Women’s Soccer Championship and 2008 MAAC Men’s Soccer Championship. It will also host the 2010 MAAC Men’s and Women’s Lacrosse Championships.
Installation of the surface lasted six weeks and was completed in June 2007. Work began with the preparation of the subsurface. High volume drainage systems, along with weed barriers, went down and were covered by different sizes of gravel. The final sub-surface layer was composed of very fine sized gravel, similar to baseball warning track mix. Then the FieldTurf DuraSpine playing surface was installed. This surface, the same one used by the New York Giants, New York Jets and the New England Patriots of the National Football League, was delivered in 26 15-foot wide rolls. Once the 26 rolls were installed, and their seams sewn together, the field’s 103 tick marks were glued to the surface. These 4” by 4” squares, colored a slightly lighter shade of green than the rest of the field, aid in the painting of game lines. Painting consists of connecting the tick marks, allowing for the fewest amount of game lines to be painted thus allowing the field to look as least busy as possible with five programs (football, men’s soccer, women’s soccer, men’s lacrosse and women’s lacrosse) calling Tenney Stadium at Leonidoff Field home. Next, the infill system was broadcasted over the playing surface. The base layer consisted of a Nike Grind mix.
A M E N I T I E S
This mix, a part of Nike’s Reuse-A-Shoe program, consists of finely grind soles of discarded athletic shoes. Then atop the Nike Grind, a 50/50 mix of silica sand and cryogenic rubber was broadcasted. The infill system weighs in at 10 pounds per square foot, nearly three times as heavy as competing synthetic turf systems. This provides a safer surface for the Red Foxes to practice and compete upon.
Stone Work A field stone, selected to mirror that of many of the already stone-clad buildings on campus, encompasses the entire grandstand’s façade. This time-consuming and artistic work adds to the building’s character and gives the impression that the grandstand has been a part of the campus landscape for years.
Seating The decision was made to move away from bleacher seating and move to the use of seatbacks exclusively. This allows for the greatest amount of comfort to be made available for spectators while attending a game or match at Tenney Stadium at Leonidoff Field. Hussey Seating Corporation, based in North Berwick, Maine, won the contract for this project.
They furnished and installed 1,744 “Legend” chair-back seats. This particular model gives the seating scheme and overall appearance a nostalgic look and feel.
Under the Grandstand Within the understructure of the grandstand, or below the seating area, lie two 55-locker locker rooms. A laundry room, athletic training room and concession area are also open underneath the grandstand. Lexan glass along the grandstand’s rear exterior was also installed. This translucent glass allows light to enter the locker room spaces, while providing privacy to the users.
West Berm Along the west side of the site, formerly the location of the spectator seating, an additional spectator seating area has been established. This location is modeled after a Greek Amphitheaterstyle lawn seating area and accommodates numerous fans. There are three independent grasscovered tiers, each separated by a small stone-clad wall. The stone utilized is the same stone that is being applied to the grandstand, thus achieving a consistent feel and use of material venue-wide.

Jim Parady, who has guided the Marist football program through nearly two decades of growth, is in his 18th season as the program’s head coach and 19th overall with the Red Foxes. With 89 victories, Parady is the winningest coach in program history. He has made Marist a force to be reckoned with both at the Football Championship Subdivision (FCS), formerly known as I-AA, level. During his tenure, Parady has coached conference championship teams and has had student-athletes excel both on and off of the playing field. The Red Foxes have made the jump from Division III to FCS status, moved into a newly-renovated stadium, won three league championships and joined the Pioneer Football League on Parady’s watch. In the last 17 seasons, Parady has posted an 89-841 record, including nine winning seasons. The Red Foxes won the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference Football League championship in 1994, 2006 and 2007. The 2008 season saw the Red Foxes compile a 4-7 record competing as an FCS independent. Marist won three of its final five games, including a triumph at future Pioneer League foe Davidson to close out the season. Running back Obozua Ehikioya set the program record for touchdowns and the school’s FCS record for career rushing yards, while

quarterback Chris Debowski tied the program record for touchdown passes in a game with four in the Red Foxes’ 34-7 win over Bryant. Right guard Jake Dembow was named an FCS Academic All-Star and was a national semifinalist for the Draddy Award. Both Dembow and Ehikioya were selected to play in the East Coast Bowl. In 2007, Marist had perhaps its most historical season in program history. The team moved into its beautiful new home - Tenney Stadium at Leonidoff Field - and played its first game there on Oct. 6, 2007 against Duquesne. After a rough start to the season, the Red Foxes rebounded to win their last two games and earn a share of the MAAC title for the second straight year, enabling Parady to earn MAAC Coach of the Year honors. Fullback Ray Fiumefreddo was named an FCS Academic All-Star, and 14 Red Foxes earned All-MAAC honors. On Feb. 28, 2008, a press conference was held to announce that Marist was joining the Pioneer Football League, effective in the 2009 season. During the 2006 campaign, the Red Foxes captured a share of their second MAAC title in school history when they snared a 24-17 victory on Senior Day at the Old Leonidoff Field. Marist secured a 3-1 league mark with the win. In 2005, The Red Foxes had one of the best seasons
MARISTFOOTBALL in recent history, tying a school record for wins with a 7-4 overall record and winning three of four MAAC contests. Seniors James Luft (quarterback) and Guy Smith (receiver) worked their way into the school's Division I-AA record books and Marist outscored its opponents by a 305-283 margin over 11 contents. Eight players earned honors on the All- MAAC first and second teams, with another seven named to the league's All-Academic team. In one of the most productive offensive seasons in team history, the 2005 squad set Division I-AA school records in passing yards (2,232), total offensive yards (3,891) and scoring (305 points). The 2004 season was marked with a number of important honors for Parady's Red Foxes squad. Winning their first three MAAC Football League contests by a combined margin of 103-69, the Red Foxes were in contention for their second league title in history heading into the final MAAC game of the season. A hard-fought, but heartbreaking 7-3 loss to Duquesne saw the Marist squad finish second in the conference standings, the team's highest ranking in the final standings since tying for second in 2002. Against MAAC opponents La Salle and Iona, the Red Foxes posted 41 points on the scoreboard in both games. In addition to placing a total of 14 players on the All-MAAC first and second teams, Marist players were named both the Offensive and Defensive Rookies of the Year. Parady himself earned honors as the Anaconda Co-Coach of the Year, sharing the honor with Greg Gattuso of Duquesne. Parady's premium on effort in the classroom as well as on the field was also brought to life in a noticeable way, with a record 10 Marist players being named to the
conference's All-Academic team. Marist played one of its most challenging schedules in program history during the 2003 season. The Red Foxes began a series with Patriot League power, Lafayette, and took Marist football national, playing on the West Coast for the first time at the University of San Diego. The Red Foxes set numerous school records during the campaign, highlighted by John Healy setting the I-AA school record for career tackles (276). Marist also snapped 12 single-game and single-season school marks. The 2002 campaign was one that Marist fans have come to expect of a Parady-coached team, as the Red Foxes went 7-4 overall, equaling the school record for wins in a single season. Marist posted a 5-3 record in MAAC Football League play, and finished in a tie for second place. The squad wrote itself into the record books against La Salle on November 9th, with single game records of 590 total yards of offense, 509 rushing yards and 80 rushing attempts. In the season opener, the defensive unit set a school record, holding the 2001 Mid-Major National Champions, Sacred Heart, to a school record minus-14 yards of rushing offense in the game. Ten Red Foxes were honored with All-MAAC accolades during the 2002 season, led by four on the first team. Chris Price, along with Juwan Jackson and Mike Loniewski were First Team offensive selections, with Adam Ercoli earning First Team accolades on the defensive side of the ball. Alfredo Riullano, Steve Evans and Brett Biggs were all named to the offensive Second Team, while Charles Fowler, Aubrey Bennett and Ike Ibeh were on the defensive Second

MILESTONES Team. Ercoli went on to earn I-AA Mid-Major AllAmerica honors from the Football Gazette, and Jackson earned the same honor from The Sports Network. The Red Foxes received national recognition during the season, as Price and Fowler earned National Player of the Week accolades during the campaign. The 2001 edition of Marist football struggled early during the fall, but under the direction of Parady rebounded to win three of its last four games, to finish the year at 3-6 overall, and 2-4 in MAAC Football League play. There were plenty of highlights to go around during the season, including a thrilling overtime win over Georgetown, 38-35, on Homecoming Weekend, the first-ever win over the Hoyas in program history. Marist also defeated Siena, the 10th win in as many games against the in-state rival during Parady's tenure. Honors abounded for Marist during the year, with nine players being tabbed as All-MAAC performers, with five making the first team. First Team All-MAAC performer Tim Cullen, a member of the Red Foxes defense, earned I-AA Mid-Major AllAmerica honors from the The Sports Network. Cullen, Mike Loniewski and Brett Biggs, were all Football Gazette All-America Honorable Mention selections. Eight of the players also showed their success in the classroom as well as excellence on the field, earning MAAC All-Academic Team honors. The 2000 campaign was one of milestones, both personally for Parady and for the program. Marist won its 100th game in its 23rd year of competition, and Parady reached the 50-win plateau, a 34-31 win over Wagner, in the middle of his ninth season. Marist had a then-program-record 11 athletes named to the AllMAAC teams at the end of the season, and had seven players named All-America recognition from the Football Gazette. Offense was the name of the game in the final year of the decade as Parady and his charges finished the 1999 campaign at 6-5. One of the most productive offensive years in program history, the Red Foxes eclipsed the 40-point mark in four games, including scoring 49 points, second most in a single game in program history, in a win over Canisius. The offensive unit was a balanced weapon, putting up nearly 1,500 yards both rushing and in the air. The 1998 campaign saw Marist again ranking among the best in the nation defensively. The Red Foxes ranked second in the nation in pass efficiency, 78.3 percent, and total defense, allowing just 219.6 yards per game. Marist also ranked third in the nation in rushing defense, 73.8 yards per game, and were the
MARISTFOOTBALL
sixth-best in the country in points allowed, giving up just 12.9 a game. The offense was not to be outdone that season, rewriting 15 school records, six on the legs of the school's all-time touchdown leader (21), the late J.J. Allen. Parady and his Red Foxes broke into the national spotlight in 1997 by setting national records. The Marist defense set a pair of I-AA records in the fall of 1997, breaking the opponent rushing yards per game and fewest yards allowed per rush marks, that had been held by Florida A&M. The Red Foxes allowed just 39.8 rush yards a game, eclipsing the 1978 record of 45.4 yards per game. The stingy Marist defense also allowed just 1.2 yards per rush, which snapped the Rattlers 1984 national record of 1.3 yards a carry. The 1994 season saw a step forward for Marist football, when it joined the MAAC Football League, and took it by storm. Marist was chosen to finish fourth that season, but Parady engineered a 7-3 campaign, and a 6-1 mark in the inaugural season as MAAC members, good enough to capture the league crown. The seven wins tied the school record, and the six league wins were the most in the Red Foxes' MAAC tenure. Marist followed that championship season with back-to-back winning seasons, going 6-4 in 1995 and 7-3 in 1996.

Scott Rumsey returns as Marist's associate head coach and defensive coordinator. Rumsey is in his ninth season as the Marist defensive coordinator, taking over that role prior to the 2001 season, and fifth as associate head coach.
The longest-tenured member of the Red Foxes' coaching staff, Tom Kelly is in his 24th year on the Marist sidelines. Kelly will continue to work with the Red Foxes' kickers.
Overall, this season marks Rumsey's 12th with the Red Foxes, having served as defensive line coach from 1998-2000. While he has served as defensive coordinator, he also coached the linebackers from 2001-07 and is in his second season working with the team’s safeties. Last season, Rumsey oversaw a change in the team’s defensive philosophy, as the Red Foxes changed from a 3-4 to a predominantly 3-3-5 look. Safety Rory Foley emerged as a star, setting a single-season school record with seven interceptions – a total which placed him third in the FCS ranks.

Larry Riley is in his 23rd season on the Red Foxes' sideline.
Under the tutelage of Kelly, punter Kevin Pauly set a Marist program record by averaging 41.0 yards per punt last season while also handling the team’s placekicking and kickoff duties. In 2005, Bradley Rowe set a Division I-AA school record with 36 successful extra point conversions in a single season. Kelly himself was a placekicker for the Red Foxes, kicking over the course of four seasons before his 1975 graduation. In 1976, Kelly received a tryout with the New York Giants. Kelly lives in Wappingers Falls, N.Y. with his two sons, Brian and Patrick.
Riley continues as a member of the defensive staff, working again with the defensive backs. During his tenure at Marist, Riley has also worked with the team’s linebackers. In 2007, Riley was honored by the Hudson Valley Federal Credit Union as part of their “Legends of the Hudson Valley” campaign, which was held in conjunction with Black History Month. It was just one of several awards Riley has earned for his dedication to the youth of the Hudson Valley. Riley attended Salem College in West Virginia where he saw time as both a defensive back and running back, and earned All-America accolades two times during his career. In 1975, he led Salem to the NAIA National Championship and earned NAIA Offensive Player of the Year honors in the state of West Virginia. He was inducted into the Salem International University Athletic Hall of Fame in 2006. He signed with the Denver Broncos and was a member of the famous "Orange Crush" defense and played on the 1977 Super Bowl team. Riley played one year with the New York Jets before embarking on a three-year stint in the Canadian Football League.
Rumsey's association with the Red Foxes football program dates back further than his coaching days. He starred as a defensive lineman at Marist and helped begin the building process of a winning program. As a rookie, Rumsey saw the Red Foxes win just two games, but by the time he graduated, he had led Marist to the top of the ACFC. In 1990, Rumsey, a two-time all-conference defensive tackle, helped the Red Foxes to a 7-2-1 overall record, and the first conference title in program history and an ACFC crown. The .750 winning percentage that season is still the best in program history. Rumsey began his coaching career in 1991 as the defensive coordinator at Valley Central High School, before moving into the college coaching ranks at Bates College. He spent four seasons at Bates, coaching with former Marist coach Rick Pardy. During his stint at Bates, Rumsey coached both the linebackers and defensive line, before returning to the Poughkeepsie campus for the 1998 season.

SEASON PREVIEW
SEASON PREVIEW
OUTLOOK While the Marist football team enters the 2009 season in a new league with several new opponents, the team that will take the field is far from new. The Red Foxes return 18 starters from last season, including 10 on the defensive side of the ball. They will rely on their experience and depth to put them in contention for a Pioneer Football League championship.
OFFENSE
WIDE RECEIVER This is a position where the Red Foxes return plenty of experience, and also have a good blend of quickness and physicality. This group includes those who can do damage underneath and those who can stretch the field vertically. Coach Parady is expecting this unit as a whole to build on its experience from last year and make significant contributions this season.
QUARTERBACK After winning a competition for the starting job last summer, Chris Debowski started all 11 games for the Red Foxes last season. Making contributions with his arms and his legs, Debowski threw for 1,529 yards and six touchdown passes, and was also the Red Foxes’ second-leading rusher with 464 yards last season. In Marist’s 34-7 triumph over Bryant on Oct. 11, Debowski tied a program record by throwing four touchdown passes while rolling up 321 yards through the air. Debowski is the lone senior in Marist’s quarterback corps. Sophomore Tommy Reilly figures to be the primary backup. Reilly is coming off a strong showing in the spring. QUARTERBACKS 13

The most experienced Marist runners are fifth-year senior Ray Fiumefreddo and senior O’Neil Anderson. Fiumefreddo uses his outstanding strength to block and run inside, while Anderson started alongside Ehikioya for much of last season and ran for 160 yards.
O’Neil Anderson
RUNNING BACK After five seasons in a Marist uniform, 728 carries, 3,585 rushing yards and a program-record 49 touchdowns, Obozua Ehikioya has graduated and left a void in the Marist ground attack. Coach Parady envisions a running back-by-committee approach to replace Ehikioya’s production. The Red Foxes have a mix of runners who can gain yards between the tackles and spread the field with their speed.

The Red Foxes also have talented younger backs in junior Greg Whipple and sophomores Willis Dendy and Ryan Dinnebeil. Whipple scored his first career touchdown last season and has also seen time on the kickoff return unit. Dendy showed his versatility as a freshman as a runner, a receiver out of the backfield and a special teams’ standout. Dinnebeil is a tough inside runner who scored four touchdowns on just 15 carries last season.

Senior James LaMacchia is the group’s statistical and physical leader, having led the squad in receptions (36), yards (535) and receiving touchdowns (four) last season. Sophomore R.J. Roe, who stands 6-foot-3, worked his way into the starting lineup last season and averaged 15.3 yards per catch, finishing with 12 receptions for 184 yards and a pair of touchdowns.

RUNNING BACKS
OFFENSIVE LINEMEN
TIGHT END The Red Foxes have a pair of solid veteran options at this position in seniors Robert Spano and Chris Ortner. Parady believes both are among the top tight ends in the conference physically. Spano has started for the last two seasons, and has caught 28 passes for 357 yards in that time. Ortner played in all 11 games last year, seeing time with Spano in two-tight end sets and spelling him on occasion. He caught three passes for 36 yards last season.

OFFENSIVE LINE Marist returns three starters from last season, but must replace a pair of four-year starters in the interior. The leader of this unit is fifth-year senior Neil Walsh, the team’s lone captain on the offensive side of the ball. Walsh will be entering his third year as a starter, and he is responsible for making all of the line calls. Left tackle Danny Angelastro, another fifth-year senior, is also entering his third year as a starter up front. Angelastro made the successful conversion to left tackle last season after starting at right guard in 2007. Kevin Ulrich, who played on the defensive line earlier in his career, will be starting at right tackle for the second straight year. The Red Foxes will have to replace a pair of four-year starters in left guard Jason Tillery and right guard Jake Dembow, both of whom started all 44 of the team’s games over the last four seasons. The battle to replace Tillery and Dembow will include a trio of juniors -- Chad Connor, Stephen Carretta and Francis Journick. Marist will also welcome six freshmen to this unit who will also compete for playing time.

SEASON PREVIEW
DEFENSE DEFENSIVE LINE Senior Terrence Turner moved over from the offensive line last season and became a mainstay at nose tackle. A captain on this year’s team, Turner is once again projected to start, and the coaching staff is expecting him to be a significant contributor again. Sophomore James Desautels improved throughout last season, and had four tackles and a sack in Marist’s season finale at Davidson. He continued to show great progress throughout the off-season, and has a good chance of working his way into the starting lineup. The Red Foxes will also welcome back senior Daniel Sullivan, who did not play last season, but was a First Team All-MAAC selection in 2007. Sullivan had moved into the starting lineup as a freshman in 2006. Marist has plenty of depth up front. Maximo Hernandez, Brock Flynn and Matt Snow all saw significant playing time last season, and will be counted on to produce this season. Hernandez and Snow are former offensive linemen, DuBois began the 2007 season as the team’s starting tight end and Flynn began his college career as a linebacker.

DEFENSIVE BACKS
This unit appears to be one of the team’s strengths, as the group remains intact from last year and includes a pair of captains.
The Red Foxes also have plenty of depth and experience in this spot. Kwame Carlor returns as a fifth-year senior to start at one cornerback spot, and senior Nic Zivic figures to start at the other corner spot. Carlor will be entering his fourth year as a starter, while Zivic has seen plenty of action at corner and safety over the last three seasons.
Nick Andre, a fifth-year senior, is a captain for the second straight year. Andre has made big plays throughout his career, and that continued last season, when he led the team in sacks (five) and tackles for loss (13.5). He also intercepted two passes and ranked third on the team with 75 tackles.
The Red Foxes will play an 11-game schedule – all against Football Championship Subdivision opponents – for the fourth consecutive season. Eight contests will come against PFL opponents, and the Red Foxes will have three non-conference contests. Five games will take place at Tenney Stadium at Leonidoff Field. Marist opens its 2009 season on Sept. 5 with a non-conference game at Sacred Heart. The Red Foxes will have their home opener seven days later when they play their first Pioneer Football League game in program history when they host Drake. Following road games at PFL foe San Diego (Sept. 19) and non-conference rival Bucknell (Sept. 26), Marist will have back-to-back league home games against Campbell on Family Weekend (Oct. 3) and Jacksonville on Homecoming Weekend (Oct. 10).
Three sophomores – Jaquan Bryant, Brandon Kicklighter and Derrick Powell – all earned playing time last season and provide terrific depth.
The coaches hope sophomore Ryan Cronan makes a splash as a sophomore. Seniors Derek Maldonado and Benjamin Wyatt, junior Kees Coughlin and sophomore Pat Crann provide plenty of experience and depth.
LINEBACKERS
SCHEDULE
Junior Kwame Domfe had his 2008 season cut short due to injury. Now healthy, Domfe figures to start at free safety.
Senior Kevin Foley, another captain, led the Red Foxes with 90 tackles last season. Foley is a threeyear starter. Classmate Kurt Steubing has seen significant playing time the last two seasons, and was fifth on the squad with 70 tackles last season.

Derek Maldonado is entering his third year as the team’s long snapper.
Rory Foley is the first Marist junior to be named a captain since Jim Parady took over as head coach in 1992. A leader on and off the field, Foley’s play spoke volumes last season. His seven interceptions set a program single-season record and ranked him third in the Football Championship Subdivision. A playmaker and a hard hitter, Foley was second on the team in tackles last season with 83, and was also second on the team with six stops for losses.
Jaquan Bryant

After a bye week, Marist returns to PFL play at Morehead State (Oct. 24). The Red Foxes then wrap up their home slate with a PFL game against Valparaiso (Oct. 31), and a non-league Senior Day game against Georgetown (Nov. 7). Marist concludes the 2009 regular season with PFL road games against Davidson (Nov. 14) and Dayton (Nov. 21). The champion of the Pioneer League will host the champion of the Northeast Conference on Dec. 5.
FINAL WORD FROM COACH PARADY “This is the most exciting time in Marist Football History. We are playing in the Pioneer League, which gives us exposure across the country with top level teams. We are now in our third season playing at Tenney Stadium, which is one of the top facilities for FCS football and gives our team and fans a great place to play and watch a game. This season will be filled with first-time challenges of an eight-game conference schedule and six new opponents. The defense will be key for us this year with 10 starters returning, and I know Coach Rumsey and the defensive staff will have them ready to play each and every week. The offense will need to find a balance with the run and pass game, and I know we have the athletes to put points on the board. Special teams will be critical for us with establishing field position and pinning opponents deep in their territory.”

SEASON IN REVIEW
ACCOLADES:
Jake Dembow Named FCS Academic All-Star and ESPN The Magazine First Team Academic All-District The senior right guard was one of 43 nationwide recipients of the Football Championship Subdivision Academic All-Star Award. Dembow was also selected to receive First-Team Academic All-District by CoSIDA. Dembow started all 44 of the Red Foxes’ games in his four-year career at Marist. A three-year starter at right tackle, Dembow made the move to right guard for 2008. The Merrimack, N.H. native was a vital part of the Red Foxes’ offensive that allowed only 14 sacks and opened holes for a rushing game which averaged more than five yards a carry. Dembow was previously named to the Metro Atlantic Athletic Football League All-Academic Team in 2006 and 2007 and was a Second Team All-MAAC Selection last season. To be a FCS Academic All-Star, a studentathlete is required to have a minimum grade point average of 3.20 on a 4.00 scale in undergraduate study and be a starter or key player with legitimate athletic credentials.
Dembow and Obozua Ehikioya Chosen to Play In East Coast Bowl Dembow and senior running back Obozua ‘Bo’ Ehikioya were selected to play in the Eighth Annual East Coast Bowl Game. Dembow, a semifinalist for the prestigious Draddy Trophy – an award given to the top football scholar-athlete – was flagged for only two penalties during his four seasons with Marist. Ehikioya, a native of West Hempstead, N.Y, concluded his fifth and final season with the Red Foxes with a career-high 1,140 yards – an average of 5.9 per carry – and 16 touchdowns. The East Coast Bowl Game consists of players from Division-I Football Championship Subdivision, Division II, Division III, and the NAIA ranks with players representing the North and South.
GOING ABOVE AND BEYOND THE FIELD:
RECORDS RE-WRITTEN:
Red Foxes Reach Out; Rewarded
Bo Ehikioya
Touchdown Illustrated recognized the Marist Red Foxes for their involvement and service work in the local community. The Red Foxes worked for the White Ribbon Campaign. Former players Adalberto Ruiz and Dan Smith led more than 100 students in a program designed to end domestic abuse against women and were given the “game ball” in a story written for Touchdown Illustrated by Stephanie Plotino. Touchdown Illustrated has a circulation of more than 100,000 and goes to over 350 colleges and universities across the United States.
The 220-pound running back eclipsed Marist’s all-time touchdown record – recording 49 for his career – and the Red Foxes’ Division I record for all-time rushing yards with 3,585. Ehikioya’s record breaking score came on an 80-yard run in the first quarter of the Red Foxes’ Oct. 4 contest against Bucknell. This touchdown was also the longest run of Ehikioya’s career and the longest play from scrimmage the Ref Foxes completed since 2000. On the day, Ehikioya ran for 156 yards on 25 carries – an average of 6.2 yards per carry – to go along with the record-breaking touchdown. Three weeks later, in a 28-7 victory over Iona, the 5-foot-11 running back surpassed Marist’s Division I career rushing record when he ran for 221 yards on 23 carries and one touchdown to end the day with 3,217 career rushing yards. The record was previously set at 3,156 yards by Don D’Aiuto – a member of the Red Foxes from 1990-1993.
SIGNS OF WHAT’S TO COME
Chris Debowski The junior quarterback enjoyed a four touchdown, 321 yard performance during Marist’s 34-7 win over Bryant on Oct. 11. The four touchdowns ties Debowski with former Red Foxes Pete Ford and Kevin Chartrand for the single-game mark for most touchdowns thrown. Ford accomplished this against Siena in 1995 and Chartrand in 1999 versus La Salle. Debowski, a transfer from Orange Coast College, now sits second in program history for yards in a single game. The Fountain Valley, Calif., native’s 321-yard performance is only the fourth time a Marist quarterback as thrown for 300 or more yards while Stephen McGrath’s 396-yard performance in 2007 is the only total greater.
Marist 24, Davidson 19 In their final game of the season, the Red Foxes traveled to Davidson, N.C. to take on the Davidson College Wildcats of the Pioneer League. Prior to the season, Marist announced it would be joining the Pioneer League after spending the 2008 season as an independent. The teams had never met before on the gridiron but a rivalry is likely to ensue as the teams meet each year as Pioneer League foes.

Running back Bo Ehikioya rushed for 86 yards and two touchdowns on 21 carries. Marist was shut out over the final tow quarters after leading 12-10 at halftime after kicker Kevin Pauly missed on point-after-touchdown and had another blocked. Quarterback Chris Debowski threw for 86 yards on 18 attempts and ran for an additional 64 yards on 12 carries.
Marist football traces its roots back to 1965, when the first team, then a club, posted a 3-3 record under president Bob Finn. The program advanced to a pair of National Title Games in 1970 and 1972 before being elevated to varsity status for the 1978 season.
Did You Know?
The Red Foxes played at the Division III level for the next 15 years, as members of the Metropolitan Conference, the ACFC, and the Liberty Conference. The Red Foxes tasted championship football for the first time in 1990, going 7-2-1 to win the ACFC Title.
DE-FENSE!
Mike Malet was the first coach of the varsity Red Foxes, holding that position from 1978-88, before turning over the reins to Rick Pardy. Pardy holds the highest winning percentage (.613) among Red Fox coaches. After his three-year stint, Pardy turned over the reins to the program’s winningest coach, Jim Parady, who has won 89 games in his tenure. The 1993 season saw the Marist football program take its next step, elevating to Division I-AA (now Football Championship Subdivision) competition, leading to its inclusion in the MAAC Football League in 1994. That first MAAC season saw Marist at the top of its game once again, winning the league crown with a 7-3 overall record under Parady’s charge.

J.J. Allen, Adam Hansen, Jovan Rhodes and current senior Obozua Ehikioya, all running backs, are the only players in varsity history to score four touchdowns in a game. Allen did it three times in the 1998 season, while Rhodes got his against Siena in 1994. Ehikioya, the 2004 MAAC Offensive Rookie of the Year, found the end zone four times in the Red Foxes’ 41-35 win at La Salle in 2004. Hansen also accomplished the feat against Saint Peter’s in a 35-18 victory in 2006. In 1997, Marist broke a pair of Division I-AA records on the defensive side of the ball. The Red Foxes allowed just 39.8 rushing yards per game while holding their opponents to just 1.2 yards per carry en route to being the top-rated defense in the nation. Prior to the team’s season finale against Siena, the Marist defense was featured in a segment on ESPN GameDay. Varsity Coaching Records Coach Jim Parady

MARISTFOOTBALL
Club Football History Ron Levine, Robert Finn, Mike Malet. Those are just a few of the names that over 40 years ago were instrumental in bringing football to the Hudson Valley. The Marist “Vikings,” as they were called then, were one of the most powerful club programs in the country. The Vikings competed in the Eastern Collegiate Club Football League with the likes of Iona, Fairfield, Westchester, Norwalk and New Haven. The team finished the 1970 and 1972 seasons with undefeated regular-season records. Finn, a student at the time, initiated the club program and can be considered the “founding father” of Marist football. Levine served as the first head coach for the program and built the program from the ground level. In 1978, after 13 seasons of numerous All-American selections and conference crowns, the program moved to the Division III level. Malet, who came to the program as a defensive line coach from Cortland State, was given the charge as the first varsity mentor, holding that position for 11 seasons. YEAR 1965

BILL O’REILLY One of Marist’s most famous alums, Fox News personality Bill O’Reilly, was a member of the Red Foxes’ club football program for four years. O’Reilly (listed as William J. O’Reilly in the school’s all-time roster) played for the Red Foxes from 1967 to 1970 before graduating with a degree in history in May, 1971. During his senior season, O’Reilly was the National Club Football Association’s leading punter, averaging 41.4 yards per punt (23 for a total of 957 yards), beating out players from other club programs such as St. John’s, Niagara and Virginia Commonwealth, and winning the title with an average which was close to 1.0 yards-per-punt better than second place. O’Reilly, who can be seen nightly on “The O’Reilly Factor” has remained a friend to Marist, returning in 2001 to present the commencement address 30 years after his own graduation. O’Reilly appeared at the dedication of Tenney Stadium at Leonidoff Field in 2007, taking part in the opening coin flip prior to the Red Foxes’ contest against Duquesne.

YEAR-BY-YEAR RESULTS
RON LEVINE
MIKE MALET
RICK PARDY
Ron Levine served as the first head coach of the Marist football team, as he directed the squad in its 13 years of club football from 1965-77. Under Levine’s leadership, the Marist “Vikings” were known as one of the most powerful teams of its era at the club level, competing in the Eastern Collegiate Club Football League. Levine then served as offensive coordinator under Mike Malet when the team achieved varsity status.
Mike Malet began his association with the Marist football program in 1970, as he served as a defensive line coach under Ron Levine. Malet took over as head coach in 1978, the first season the Red Foxes competed as a varsity program. In addition to his 11 years as the head football coach, Malet also served as the head men’s lacrosse coach and would go on to become an Assistant Athletics Director at Marist.
In 1989, Rick Pardy became the youngest head coach in college football when he took over the Marist program at the age of 27. Pardy led the Red Foxes to the 1990 Atlantic Collegiate Football Conference Championship, as the team accumulated a 7-2-1 mark with a perfect 5-0 record in conference play. He returned to Marist to serve as defensive coordinator under Jim Parady from 1998-2000.

HANCOCK CENTER
Marist Alumni Marist officials broke ground May 2, 2009 on the Hancock Center, a new facility overlooking the Hudson River on the Marist College campus that will house traditional academic programs as well as provide space for collaborative research, innovation, and small business incubation. The $32.5 million project is named for lead donor and vice chair of the Marist Board of Trustees Ellen Hancock and her husband, Jason. Supported by the Campaign for Marist, the 54,000-square foot Hancock Center will provide much-needed academic space at a central campus location. When it opens in late 2010, the building will serve three primary purposes: • Home to the College's School of Computer Science and Mathematics, including faculty offices, nine classrooms, six conference/seminar rooms, and three computer labs.
Just over a century ago, the Marist Brothers came to New York's Hudson River Valley to train young men to continue the Brothers' vocation as great educators. What started as a seminary for the training of future Marist Brothers has developed into one of the leading independent comprehensive liberal arts colleges in the country.

RED foxes WHY THE RED FOXES
A 1961 meeting marked both the birth of the Marist College basketball team and the adoption of ‘Red Foxes’ as the official nickname and mascot. Athletic Director Brother William Murphy, decided to organize a varsity basketball team to play scheduled games against other schools and thought a nickname and logo would be appropriate. While glancing at a sports catalog, Br. Murphy noticed a reynard, more commonly known as a red fox, on the cover of the book. He decided this fury little creature, indigenous to the Hudson Valley, was to become the mascot and logo of all Marist College teams. The reynard comes from a great medieval cycle of stories that originated in the Low Countries, Northern France and Western Germany. The rarity of the word prompted Br. Murphy to choose the general term ‘Red Foxes.’

THE COAT OF ARMS
The circular monogram represents the official seal of Marist College. The date 1929 marks the year in which Marist College received its first charter as an accredited Academic Institution. The large ‘M’ in the center is the traditional symbol of the Marist brothers. The 12 stars, which appear about the ‘M’, are a scriptural symbol of the Blessed Virgin, to whom the Marist Brothers are devoted. The Latin inscription within the seal “Orare et Laborare,” may be translated “to pray and to work,” the original motto of the college.
The emblem pictured is the Marist College Coat of Arms. On either side of the shield stands the official College mascot, the Red Fox, chosen for its keen intelligence and ingenuity. The red and white College colors are derived from the coloration for the fox. The Red Fox is also pictured in the College ring. In the left quadrant of the shield appears the traditional Marist bell, originally used to regulate the lives of the brothers. The Indian seen in the right-hand quadrant of the shield is taken from the seal of the town of Poughkeepsie (from the Mohegan word ‘apo-keep-sinck’, a safe, pleasant harbor. The lower half represents the liberal arts. The nucleus of the atom stands for the sciences, while the open book and crossed quills represents the humanities. Atop the shield is the official Marist Brothers emblem. At the bottom is a scroll with the Latin words ‘Cum Optimis Litigare’, which translated, means ‘To strive with the best.’

In commemoration of the Hudson and Champlain Quadricentennial and Fulton Bicentennial in 2009, The Hudson-Fulton-Champlain Quadricentennial will organize and engage the public and local special interest groups in the creation of infrastructure for future generations while focusing local and nation attention on New York State’s history, culture and natural resources.
THIS IS POUGHKEEPSIE
To stimulate and encourage interest in New York State, Explore NY 400 will: • Focus local and national attention on tourism in the Hudson Valley, Lake Champlain and New York City. • Produce educational material for use in all schools in New York State • Celebrate the multiculturalism of New York City, the Hudson Valley and Lake Champlain • Encourage the preservation of natural space from Lake Champlain to the New York Harbor. The Quadricentennial Poughkeepsie Regatta is a re-enactment of the Poughkeepsie Regatta which was held on the Hudson River from 1895-1949. During the 54-year span, the area in front of Marist’s Historic Cornell Boathouse was home to the Intercollegiate Rowing Association’s National Championship race. In conjunction with the 400th anniversary of Henry Hudson’s voyage up the river, Marist College will host the Quadricentennial Poughkeepsie Regatta on Saturday, Oct. 3, 2009 at 9 a.m. A number of original and current stewards will return to the Hudson River for the event:
POUGHKEEPSIE, N.Y. Known as the Queen City of the Hudson Valley, Poughkeepsie is nestled on the east bank of the Hudson River halfway between New York City and Albany, the state capital. Founded in 1687, Poughkeepsie is the county seat of Dutchess County and home to a number of historical sites. Located just 75 miles north of midtown Manhattan, Poughkeepsie is home to over 42,000 people and serves as a regional center of the arts, entertainment, higher education, health care, transportation, business and government. A town rich in culture and steeped in history, the inspired ideas and works of Alexander Hamilton, Matthew Vassar, Franklin D. Roosevelt and many others are alive in the spirit of Poughkeepsie situated on the scenic Hudson River. Settled in the late 1600s by the Dutch, Poughkeepsie was first organized as a town in 1788. It was in this year that the U.S. Constitution was officially ratified there by the state of New York, as Poughkeepsie was serving at that time as the temporary state capital. In 1799, the city of Poughkeepsie was taken off the town of the same name and organized separately as a village, later to become incorporated (in 1854) as a city.

History of Leonidoff Field
ith a ground breaking in 1965 and an official dedication in 1968, Leonidoff Field is named after Dr. Alex Leonidoff a local physician and avid Marist Athletics supporter. Leonidoff Field has served as a hub of activity for the Marist College Athletic Department and has truly become a cornerstone athletic facility at Marist College. Five individual programs have called Leonidoff field home, making it a constant site of Red Fox athletic events. The Marist College football team has been the one program that has seen the greatest amount of activity on Leonidoff. The program’s humble beginnings date back to 1965 when the sport held club status until 1977. Although during the days of club football team records were set that still stand today, including the punting record held by Fox News’ Bill O’Reily ‘71 averaging 41.4 yards per punt. A new milestone was ushered in when the football program moved to NCAA Division III status in 1978. The first game held at Leonidoff Field played at the Division III level was on September 24th 1978 which saw the Red Foxes narrowly lose to St. John’s (NY) 7-3. The next leap for the football program came in 1993 when Red Fox football began play at the NCAA Division I-AA level. This new era of competition was ushered in at Leonidoff Field on a winning note. The Red Foxes defeated Pace by a score of 47-19 on September 18, 1993. Since beginning play at the Division 1-AA level, the Red Foxes have enjoyed a 40-22 home mark at Leonidoff Field, a perfect 5-0 home season in 1998 and an impressive home record of 40-22 from 1996-2000.

Since 2001, Marist men’s soccer has compiled 15 wins at home and in 2004 Leonidoff Field had one of the most successful men’s soccer seasons take place on its turf. The team picked up four home victories on their way to the MAAC Championship and NCAA Tournament berth. Leonidoff Field’s resume of programs continued to grow with the inception of the Marist College men’s lacrosse team who played their first full Division I season in 1992. The first Marist men’s lacrosse match featured on Leonidoff Field was a 18-5 loss to Boston College on March 28, 1992. Recently the 2005

Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference’s men’s lacrosse championship tournament was held on Leonidoff Field. The Red Fox men’s lacrosse team would go on to win the 2005 league championship on their home field by defeating Providence College on their way to the program’s first appearance in the NCAA tournament. With the arrival of the 1995 fall season, came the addition of Leonidoff Field’s fourth intercollegiate program, women’s soccer. The program’s first match on Leonidoff was a tough 1-0 loss to Columbia on September 9, 1995. Although the Red Foxes would come right back on September 10, 1995 to earn the program’s and Leonidoff Field’s first women’s soccer victory by defeating Maine 2-1. The most recent program addition to Leonidoff Field was the women’s lacrosse team which began play in 1997. This team began their occupancy on Leonidoff Field with a 14-6 loss to Albany on April 2, 1997. In 2004 the Red Fox women’s lacrosse achieved a 4-1 home record and in 2005 qualified for the MAAC championship tournament. Leonidoff Field has played host to numerous Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference Championship Tournaments, most recently hosting the men’s lacrosse league championship and men’s soccer league championships. The summer of 2005 once again saw Leonidoff Field take center stage as it functioned as the competition site for 2005 Empire State Games men’s lacrosse tournament. As a pivotal field in the Marist College Athletic Department, capital improvements have been made to Leonidoff over the years. The beginning of the 2001 season saw the addition of Musco field lighting to allow night games to occur. An irrigation system consisting of 11 separate zones and 36 individual sprinkler heads was installed in 1990 to keep the Kentucky bluegrass, fescue and rye natural turf surface looking its best. The base of this hallowed ground for Marist Athletics is comprised of a blend of soils native to the region. The final event on the old field took place on Nov. 11, 2006, when the Marist football team defeated Iona 24-17 to earn a share of the MAAC Football League championship.

ACADEMIC HONOREES
ACADEMICS
During the 2008-09 academic year, the Marist department ofathletics set a new record with 13 Academic All-District selections. The program which is sponsored by ESPN The Magazine, and is selected by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) has a total of 12 categories where student-athletes can be nominated. They include:
Intercollegiate competition is a rewarding extracurricular activity that can add a special dimension to a student's life. The student-athlete at Marist can utilize its academic support programs, with the Center for Student-Athlete Enhancement staff helping to ensure that student-athletes successfully balance their commitment of academics and athletics. Director of Academic Advisement for Student-Athletes Alyssa Gates Assistant Director Lynsey Miller and Academic Fellow Erik Proctor provide studentathletes with academic support through various means, including academic advisors, tutors, and study facilities, which help the student-athlete to not only be successful in the classroom but also prepare them to be successful long after their playing careers are complete.
! Men’s
ACADEMIC MONITORING The Center for Student-Athlete Enhancement Staff members work closely with student-athletes as well as faculty advisors on academic planning, study skills, goal-setting, majors, minors, etc. The Athletics-Academic Advisement program has two main focuses: The first is to be a valuable resource to the studentathlete for all types of collegiate information. Gates and her staff help studentathletes create a class schedule that allows each individual to maximize class participation without compromising their athletic commitments. The office also assists student-athletes to identify major and pre-professional programs that will prepare them for life in the professional world. Additionally, the Center for Student-Athlete Enhancement serves as a safety net. In this capacity, the office staff monitors student-athletes progress through the course of the semester. Should a student-athlete begin to struggle in a class, the professional staff intervenes and helps the individual through the learning process by identifying the problem and assisting in organizing tutorials and study hall sessions to help the student better understand class material and improve their study skills. Staff of the Center for Student-Athlete Enhancement as well as Marist's National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Faculty Representative Dr. John Ritschdorff, help the student-athletes to prioritize their time so as not to be overwhelmed by the adjustment to college life. They provide assistance in helping the student-athlete to balance the rigors of academic and athletic demands.

CHAMPS/LIFE SKILLS In 1991, the NCAA Foundation initiated efforts to create a total development program for student-athletes. Through the collaborative efforts of the NCAA Foundation and the Division 1A Athletic Directors' Association, the CHAMPS/Life Skills Program (Challenging Athletes' Minds for Personal Success) was created (www.ncaa.org). Marist has implemented the CHAMPS/LIFE SKILLS Program to provide studentathletes with the opportunity to experience programs that increase their academic and personal successes. The program is designed to give the student-athletes the support and skills needed to become effective citizens, inspired leaders and motivated activists after their graduation from college. The CHAMPS/Life Skills p rogram focuses on five areas of commitment: Academic Excellence, Athletic Excellence, Personal Development, Career Development, and Community Service. To this means the Department of Athletics provides seminars on Violence Prevention, Drug & Alcohol Education, Nutrition & Eating Disorders, Career Development, a Faculty & Peer Mentor Program, and Community Service projects. As part of the Marist College CHAMPS/Life Skills Program two student-athletes are selected by the NCAA to attend the Foundation Leadership Conference each year. The mission of the NCAA Foundation Leadership Conference is to provide student-athlete leaders with a multitude of challenging and thought-provoking activities that will enable them to become agents of change on their campuses and in their communities. As a result of participation, the student-athletes will enhance their communication skills, decision-making and problem-solving skills, critical-thinking skills, and collaborative skills.

Marist Facilities GARTLAND ATHLETIC FIELD
MCCANN BASEBALL FIELD
SOFTBALL PARK AT GARTLAND ATHLETIC FIELD
The Gartland Athletic Field, also known as North Field, provides striking views of the Hudson River while serving as a core practice facility for both Marist intercollegiate and club teams. Formerly the site of an amusement park, the Gartland Athletic Field is large enough to accommodate three team practices simultaneously and sees a diverse amount of activity. Events ranging from soccer and lacrosse practices to college special events and graduation week activities all occur on this multi-use field. The field is also occasionally used as a helicopter landing area for VIP guest arrivals on campus.
Built in 1991, the McCann Baseball Field has served as the home to Marist baseball since its dedication at the onset of the 1992 season. This venue, which brought Division I baseball to the Mid-Hudson Valley, was a project championed by longtime Marist Trustee John J. Gartland Jr. and the McCann Foundation. The field is located directly next to the James J. McCann Recreation Center on the south end of campus.
A picturesque and breathtaking view of the Hudson River provides the dramatic backdrop for the Softball Park at Gartland Athletic Field. This jewel of an athletic venue is nestled on the north end of the Marist campus as part of the Gartland Athletic Field, and has served as the home of Marist softball since the program’s inception in 1992.
BOATHOUSE ROW
Built in 1977, the James J. McCann Center is called home by the Marist men’s and women’s basketball and women’s volleyball programs. Additionally, the McCann Center’s versatility makes it a highly used practice venue by many of Marist’s varsity teams. The building’s namesake, James J. McCann (1880-1969), was a Poughkeepsie native and a strong supporter of Marist Athletics. Generous support from his charitable trust made the building’s construction possible.
Without question the campus athletic facilities with the greatest amount of history in the Marist Athletics Department are the boathouses, located on campus, which sit on the banks of the Hudson River. Currently, two houses exist. The first is the original boathouse once occupied by Cornell University’s crew teams during their annual training and racing at the IRA National Championship Regatta, which was held in Poughkeepsie from the late 19th century until 1949. The second boathouse is currently home to the Marist men’s and women’s rowing programs. The Marist boathouse, which stands on the former site of the University of California and University of Washington boathouses, is adjacent to the Cornell boathouse.
MCCANN FIELD HOUSE
MCCANN NATATORIUM Built in 1977 through the generosity of Marist athletics supporter James J. McCann, the McCann Natatorium is one of the premier aquatic facilities in the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference. The natatorium is home to the Marist men’s and women’s swimming and diving and women’s water polo programs. The 265,000-gallon facility, ranging in depth from 4 feet to 13 feet, provides six 25-yard lanes and an independent diving well. The well contains two 1-meter Duraflex diving boards and one 3meter Duraflex diving board.
TENNIS PAVILION Completed in the fall of 2006, the Marist Tennis Pavilion provides the first on-campus home to highly successfully men’s and women’s tennis programs. The Marist Tennis Pavilion, located off Fulton Street on the East Campus, features eight regulation- sized courts, a center walkway and a pergola-covered spectator area. To provide the Marist tennis programs with a world-class surface, a Deco II surface was installed. Marist, the United States Military Academy and the United States Tennis Center in Queens, host site of the U.S. Open, are the only tennis venues in the area that boast a Deco II surface.

J.J. ALLEN
PLAYER PROFILES
DECEMBER 13, 1975 – DECEMBER 31, 2003 J.J. Allen embodied all the qualities of a great studentathlete, from his success on the football field, to his contributions to the Marist community as a whole. J.J. passed away on New Year’s Eve, 2003, with his wife, Lori, by his side. He had turned 28 just 18 days earlier. His passing left a void for his family and friends that can never be filled. “He was the best we ever had, as a person and a player,” said Marist head football coach Jim Parady. “He was tremendous, there are not many like him.” J.J. spent three years at Marist, 1996-99, after spending his freshman year at Howard University. His impact far exceeded his great successes on the football field. Over the course of his three years, he was always among the first to volunteer his time to the local community. He spent countless hours working with local youth organizations, and was always the first to volunteer for an event that involved working with others. J.J. graduated from Marist in May 1999 with a Bachelor’s of Science Degree in Biology. Former Marist head softball coach Melissa Tucci, a 2001 Marist graduate, had a biology class with J.J. her freshman year. “Here I was a freshman, and the star football player was in my class,” remembers Tucci. “He was so willing to lend a hand to anyone to help them out. He was someone I looked up to academically and athletically. He was a real person and I will always remember that about J.J.” Allen had great success as a member of the Red Foxes football program, placing his name into the record books in numerous categories. For his career, 30 games, he carried the ball 597 times for 3,015 yards, the thirdhighest career total in program history. He holds the school record for career touchdowns with 41, and helped Marist to 20 wins in his three seasons. Allen was the heart and soul of the 1998 squad, a season in which he set single-season school records with 278 carries, 1,623 yards, 21 touchdowns and scoring with 126 points. “What will always stand out about J.J. for me is how his personality made the spirit of our team,” said Parady. “His enthusiasm and love for the game was contagious and that part of him made for a closeness with his class and the team, which has been hard to duplicate over the years.” J.J. will always be remembered within the Marist football program. To show its appreciation for what J.J. meant to the program and the legacy of excellence which current players strive to emulate now and in the future, Marist retired Allen’s jersey in a ceremony at halftime of the Red Foxes’ game against Duquesne on October 22, 2005. J.J. Allen will be remembered for all his contributions to the entire Marist community, including his efforts on the gridiron.
