2021 SACRAMENTO STATE FOOTBALL

UNIVERSITY INFORMATION

Students choose Sacramento State because they want something special in a college experience. California’s capital university is in the heart of the state’s political, economic, and cultural center, and our students come here to make a difference in their lives and the lives of others, to find and develop their passions, and to live those passions beyond the classroom.

Take a walk along pathways snake through a 3,500 tree urban forest to find students poring over papers spread out on cafe tables, lounging in vast, grassy quads, and heading to any of the hundreds of on-campus events each semester. Check out one of the seven art galleries. See the world around you with fresh eyes and realize that here is where you’ll find the tools and opportunities to scale heights and reach goals you never imagined.

Sacramento State athletics sponsors 21 intercollegiate sports at the NCAA Div. I level. Most of the University’s teams compete in the Big Sky Conference while other Hornet teams are members of the Western Athletic Conference, the Big West Conference, the American Athletic Conference and the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation. Sacramento State has captured 88 conference championships in its Div. I era and routinely ranks high in the Big Sky all-sports standings.

Hornet student-athletes have also shined in the classroom, posting a cumulative grade-point average of at least 3.0 in school history in nine consecutive semesters.

Among the notable alumni who were student-athletes at Sacramento State are NFL veterans Todd Davis, John Gesek, Daimon Shelton, Lonie Paxton and Lorenzo Lynch. Former Hornet football player Ryan Coogler has made his mark in Hollywood as the writer and director of “Fruitvale Station”, “Creed” and “Black Panther.” Several others have chosen to remain Hornets and work in the athletics department, including four of Sacramento State current head coaches.

Our students also enjoy unique career opportunities, from politics 2

to business, philanthropy to the arts, and more. If you want a future in California’s capital region and beyond, a degree from its capital university is your ticket. So rather than asking “Why Sac State?” the real question is: What are you waiting for?

AMONG OUR MANY POINTS OF PRIDE: • Sacramento State is the fourth most diverse university in the western United States (U.S. News and World Report, 2019).

• There is one faculty member for every 27 students at Sacramento State, and undergraduate classes averaged just 34 seats in 2014.

• Home to more than 3,500 trees, Sac State is a Tree Campus USA, having held the distinction since 2013.

• Sac State features the second-largest veterans program in the CSU system, with more than 1,200 veterans and their dependents.

• The College of Business Administration has been AACSB-accredited since 1963, one of just 5 percent of the world’s 13,000 higher education institutions to have earned this designation.

• The Capital Fellows Programs are consistently ranked among the nation’s top 10 internships.

• Sac State offers two independent doctorates, in Physical Therapy and Educational Leadership.

• We are the home of the nation’s second-largest Criminal Justice program.

• Each year, Sac State’s School of Nursing graduates 200-250 skilled nurses, who average between a 95 percent and a 100 percent passage rate on the National Council of State Boards of Nursing’s licensure examination (NCLEX).

• The University’s Honors Program provides highly motivated undergraduates with challenging and stimulating learning experiences in small class settings.

STADIUM/GAMEDAY

HORNET STADIUM

• Originally built in 1969, Hornet Stadium is the home for Sacramento State football. The facility has a capacity of 21,195 — the second largest in the Big Sky Conference.

• A new playing surface was installed prior to the 2021 season. The SprinTurf surface features the yardage numbers in Sacramento State’s font, the Big Sky Conference logos stitched into the field and new gold end zones. The surface also has a shock pad beneath it and an infill which is designed to reduce heat.

• Hornet Stadium has served as the home of several professional football teams including the Sacramento Surge of the World League, the Sacramento Gold Miners of the Canadian Football League and Sacramento Mountain Lions of the United Football League.

• The stadium has also hosted the 2000 and 2004 U.S. Olympic Track and Field Trials and four NCAA Div. I Outdoor Track and Field Championships (2003, 2005, 2006, 2007).

• The stadium is surrounded by The Well to the north and the Broad Athletic Fieldhouse to the south. The Well is Sacramento State’s student recreation and health center. It opened in 2010 (expanded in 2021) and features a large weight room, indoor spaces for basketball, volleyball, racquetball and soccer, a rock climbing wall and an elevated running track.

• The Broad Athletic Fieldhouse is the home to Hornet football and track and field. Built in 2008, it includes coaches offices, meeting spaces, locker rooms, training rooms and weight rooms for the teams.

GAMEDAY

• The celebration of Hornet football begins well before kickoff with a lively tailgate party outside of Hornet Stadium. Fans then greet the team for Hornet Walk which includes the Sacramento State marching band, cheer and dance teams.

• Once inside, Sacramento State students sit directly behind the Hornet bench at midfield. A new VIP fan section was added in the north end zone during the 2019 season.

2021 SACRAMENTO STATE FOOTBALL

ADMINISTRATION

ROBERT S. NELSEN MARK ORR University President

Director of Athletics

Dr. Robert S. Nelsen, Sacramento State’s eighth permanent president, comes to Sacramento with his wife, Jody Hawkins Nelsen.

Mark Orr was named Sacramento State’s Director of Athletics on March 27, 2017. He became the University’s 16th athletics director.

Nelsen’s experience in public higher education spans nearly three decades, most of it spent in the University of Texas system. He was president of UT-Pan American from 2010 to 2014 and most recently served as special advisor to UT’s executive vice chancellor for Academic Affairs.

During that time, Orr has had a significant impact on Hornet Athletics, helping steer the program to multiple conference championships, record-breaking seasons, NCAA postseason appearances, and excellence in the classroom.

Nelsen was born in Brigham City, Utah, and grew up on a ranch in Montana. He earned his bachelor’s and master’s degrees in political science from Brigham Young University, and his doctorate from the University of Chicago’s Committee on Social Thought, where his fields of study were modern literature, modern philosophy and modern political theory.

In 1989-90, Nelsen taught English at the University of Illinois at Chicago before joining the faculty of the University of Texas-Dallas, where he founded the creative writing program and served as its director. During his 18 years at UT-Dallas, he also was a professor of Literary and Aesthetic Studies, and served as vice provost.

In 2008-09, Nelsen was a professor of English and associate vice president for academic affairs at Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi. In 2010, he returned to the University of Texas system as the president of UT-Pan American in Edinburg. Among his proudest achievements was leading the effort to merge the university with the University of Texas-Brownsville to create the new University of Texas-Rio Grande Valley, which has a medical school.

He is a prolific and award-winning short-story writer. His play “We Bums” had a three-week run at Dallas’ Deep Ellum Theater in 1995.

Among his many awards and honors, Nelsen was named the 2014 Man of the Year by the Rio Grande Valley Hispanic Chamber of Commerce and received a Literacy Champion award from the South Texas Literacy Coalition in 2012. This spring, the Edinburg City Council unanimously voted to rename a city street “Dr. Robert Nelsen Drive.”

4

One of Orr’s biggest decisions paid off quickly with the hiring of Troy Taylor as the Hornets’ head football coach prior to the 2019 season. In his first year leading the team, Taylor guided Sacramento State to a share of its first Big Sky Conference title and FCS playoff appearance. The team finished the year ranked ninth in the FCS — the best in school history — and Taylor was recipient of the Eddie Robinson Award while also earning Big Sky Coach of the Year honors. In addition to football’s 2019 title, the Hornets have won 12 additional conference championships under Orr’s watch.

Sacramento State Athletics continues to excel in the classroom under Orr, receiving dozens of all-academic honors every semester. Both men’s basketball and women’s golf have received an NCAA Public Recognition Award every year of Orr’s tenure for having an Academic Progress Rate (APR) score that ranks among the top 10 percent nationally in their respective sports.

Sacramento State remains the only public school in California to ever receive the NCAA Public Recognition Award in men’s basketball, and the Hornets have earned the honor four consecutive years.

Orr graduated from Christian Brothers HS in Sacramento in 1994. He earned a scholarship to play football at Cal, where he played from 1994 to 1998. A four-year letterman defensive back on the California football team, Orr was an honorable mention all-academic Pac-10 selection in 1997 and 1998. He was awarded the Pappy Waldorf Honorary Scholarship for Academic Excellence in 1998 and received the Tiny Bates Memorial Award for Leadership in 1998.

Orr and his wife, April, have two children, Tyson and Jacob.

• There will be multiple ways to follow this week’s game. Hornet fans can tune in to ESPN 1320 AM to hear the radio call of Jason Ross, Steve McElroy and Danny Sullivan. Live audio streaming is also available via www. hornetsports.com.

• Sacramento State scored on its first possession of the game, never trailed and made the defensive stops when needed in a 28-21 win over No. 5 Montana on Oct. 16 at Washington-Grizzly Stadium. The win was the first for the Hornets in Missoula, Mont., in 13 tries. After a controversial spot on a fourth-down attempt gave the ball back to the Griz, the Sacramento State defense responded by sacking Montana on third and fourth down to effectively end the game.

• The Hornets held a Montana defense, which entered the game leading the FCS and averaging 4.4 sacks per game, to just one sack in the contest. Conversely, Sacramento State tallied four sacks, including a pair from senior Josiah Erickson who now has five this season.

• The Hornets have showcased their depth throughout the season with nine players credited with a rush, four who have completed a pass, and 16 who have caught a pass.

• Sacramento State has utilized a two quarterback system throughout the first half of 2021 with the combination of Asher O’Hara and Jake Dunniway. With the pair sharing snaps, neither have the opportunity to be highly ranked among the best in the Big Sky. However, if you combine their stats, duo would rank third in the Big Sky and 15th in the FCS in passing offense with 294.7 yards per game. Individually, Dunniway is seventh in the league with 181.5 yards per game while O’Hara is 13th at 110.5. O’Hara also remains the team’s leading rusher with 360 yards and five touchdowns.

OPPONENT PREVIEW: Northern Arizona

• Northern Arizona has found its offensive rhythm the last two weeks, averaging 53.5 points in a pair of wins over Idaho State (48-17) and Southern Utah (59-35). The Lumberjacks started the year with losses against No. 1 Sam Houston State and now-ranked South Dakota. The team then won, 21-19, at Arizona before an overtime loss at Northern Colorado to start Big Sky Conference play.

• Freshman RJ Martinez has taken over as the starting quarterback and has thrown for 786 yards and eight touchdowns without an interception in the two most recent games. Martinez has also rushed for 155 yards and three scores.

• In the blowout win over SUU, Martinez completed 23-of-29 passes for 417 yards and five touchdowns. Hendrix Johnson caught five passes for 174 yards and two TDs while Coleman Owen had nine grabs for 163 yards and two scores. Freshman running back Kevin Daniels was equally impressive with 229 rushing yards while averaging 12.1 yards per attempt.

• Chris Ball is in his third season at the NAU head coach. Prior to coming to Flagstaff, Ariz., Ball was the defensive coordinator at Memphis for three seasons. Ball, who has over 30 years of coaching experience, has also been the co-defensive coordinator at Arizona State.

2021 SACRAMENTO STATE FOOTBALL

BIG SKY CONFERENCE The Big Sky Conference enters its 57th year and 32nd year of women’s competition during the 2019-20 academic year.

The league has become one of the strongest Division I conferences in the West and is a national leader in the Football Championship Subdivision. Six times, Big Sky teams have won the Division I National Championship, including Eastern Washington in 2010. The Big Sky is one of three conferences in the western United States playing Division I football.

The Big Sky’s full members represent eight states spanning from the Pacific Ocean to the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. The league is represented along the entire west coast with institutions in Washington, Oregon and California. League schools also range up and down the Rocky Mountains with institutions in Montana, Idaho, Utah, Arizona and Colorado. It is “The Heart of the American West.”

On Feb 25, 1963, the name Big Sky was adopted by the six presidents of the charter members as the name of the new conference. The name Big Sky originated in a novel written by the late A.B. (Bud) Guthrie of Great Falls, Mont., in 1947 entitled “The Big Sky.” Jack Hollowell, a former Montana advertising director, promoted the Big Sky theme for the Treasure State. While on a track and field trip from Pocatello, Idaho, to Missoula, Mont., legendary Dubby Holt of Idaho State saw a “Welcome to Big Sky Country” sign as his team entered Montana. Holt, and his athletes thought “Big Sky” would be a perfect name for the new conference.

Harry Missildine of the Spokane Spokesman-Review called for the newly formed league to be named the Big Sky Conference in his column dated Feb. 20, 1963.

The Big Sky sponsors championships in 16 sports, including men’s and women’s cross country, indoor and outdoor track and field, basketball and tennis. In addition, there are also championships in football, and women’s volleyball, golf and soccer. The Big Sky sponsored softball for the first time in 2013. Men’s golf returned as a championship sport in 2014-15 for the first time since 2002. The University of Hartford and Binghamton University have joined the Big Sky as affiliate members in golf.

In 1988-89, the Big Sky Conference first began sponsoring women’s sports. The former Mountain West Conference existed from 1982-88, sponsoring championships for women’s sports at the same institutions the Big Sky had men’s programs. The Big Sky merged with the Mountain West in 1988, forming one league for both men and women.

Tom Wistrcill was named the seventh commissioner of the Big Sky on Nov. 16, 2019. Wistrcill arrives at the Big Sky Conference after having served as the Senior Vice President at Learfield since 2015. While with Learfield, Wistrcill helped develop new collegiate relationships within the company’s University Partnership Group. In 2015, Andrea Williams held the position of commissioner from 2016-18. She replaced longtime commissioner Doug Fullerton who served the league for 21 years. Ron Stephenson preceded Fullerton, serving as commissioner from 1981 through June 1995. Steve Belko was the commissioner from 1977-81, while John Roning held the post from 1971-77. The first league commissioner was Jack Friel, who served from 1963-71.
