Offensive Line, Klever, Andrus Keys to Offense Experience on the offensive line, the return of three-year letterman tailback Rocky Klever, and the play of quarterback Bart Andrus are the keys to the Grizzlies’ offense in the 1980 season. Of the five returning starters on offense three were starters last season. Seniors Carlton Lamb and Brian McHugh, and junior Pat Norwood all have valuable playing time under their belts. Add to that trio junior Tom Perez and sophomore Brian Caraway, and offensive line coach Bob Lowry’s optimistic attitude adds up. Both Perez and Caraway lettered last year. Klever, an honors candidate, was Montana’s leading scorer and rusher last season. He gained 679 yards on 156 carries for a 4.4yard average. He also scored nine touchdowns, one via a pass reception. He also passed for another TD, and had a 76-yard pass reception. “Rocky is a triple threat for us,” said head coach Larry Donovan. “He can run, pass and kick, and we will utilize those abilities whenever we can. I think he will be the league’s outstanding tailback.” Although he saw limited duty last year, quarterback Bart Andrus is expected to be a major factor for Montana in 1980. He surfaced as the No. 1 signal caller in spring practice. Donovan said he hopes to take advantage of Andrus’ speed by using a sprint out type of offense and the short passing game. “Bart really improved during the spring, especially in finding the secondary receivers,” Donovan said. “We know he can run, and now we feel confident about his passing game.” Also in the offensive backfield are veterans Wayne Harper and
Tailback Rocky Klever (also on page 15) back for his final year. He led Montana in rushing and scoring last season.
is
Bob Cerkovnik, at fullback and tailback, respectively. Junior Cerkovnik is the Grizzlies’ second leading returning rusher. He had 98 yards on just 28 carries. Junior College transfer Mike Hagen played well last spring and should push Harper for the starting fullback berth. Donovan said receiver Mike Alex “could be the top newcomer in the league.” Alex, a 6-2,190-pounder with 4.6 speed, can play tight end or wide receiver. Returning starter Bill Lane (15 catches for 183 yards) and junior Bill Dolan will also be counted on heavily at wide receiver. Another newcomer, JC transfer David Glenn, could also see a lot of action at receiver. He is a sophomore. The return of two-year lettermen Basil Jones at right guard will give UM a boost. Sophomores Mark Madsen, Rocky Miller, Bob Cordier and junior Jim Rooney are waiting in the wings for a chance to play on the offensive line. Donovan said he was excited about Montana’s potential kicking game. Prep All-American Dean Rominger, a freshman from Fort Benton High School, is expected to take up the slack of Raul Allegre. Allegre was a second team all-conference choice last year. “We feel that the kicking game is an extremely intregral part of successful football, and our recruiting efforts reflect that,” Donovan said. “We think Dean is one of the best kickers in the prep ranks.” Punter Terry Thomas averaged 37.9-yards on 58 kicks last season, and is back for his final year. Thomas also plays in the secondary.
Tackle Brian McHugh (right) is one of three returning starters on the offensive line. Also back are Carlton Lamb and Pat Norwood. 10

Defense: ‘Claw’ And Company Return “Claw,” also known as middle linebacker Kent Clausen, and several other top-notch defensive players are back for the Grizzlies in 1980. All-American candidate Clausen, a sure bet to be a high professional draft pick (please see page 16), had 110 tackles in just seven games before being sidelined with a back injury. He is 100 percent now. Also back for the “Copper Stoppers” are defensive linemen Arnie Rigoni, Bret Barrick and Pat Curry (please see page 17). All are returning starters. Last year Rigoni had 80 tackles, Barrick had 50 and Curry had 63. “We think in Kent, Arnie, Bret, Pat and the rest of the players we have an outstanding group of players on which to build a top Big Sky Conference defensive football team,” Donovan said. Another player who will be counted on is linebacker Jim Hogan, one of six returning starters on defense. Hogan had 72 tackles, including three sacks last year. Hogan, along with Clausen, also had two interceptions. Newcomer Dennis Bowman has earned a starting job at the “whip” linebacker slot, and “pound-for-pound is one tough football player,” Donovan said. At the “Sam” linebacker slot is sophomore letterman Curt McElroy, who was pressed into a starting role in 1979 when Clausen was injured last year. McElroy had 20 tackles in 79.
Donovan said freshman Dave Kline and Brian Solonen, “are very talented players, and may be hard to keep out of the lineup at linebacker.” Honors candidate Jay Becker (please see page 17) is one of the hardest hitters in the conference for his size, and the three-year letterman is back for his final season at strong safety. He had 91 tackles, 38 of which were unassisted last season. Junior Randy Laird started a couple of games last season and will start at strong corner. Sophomore letterman John Kovacich has the inside track at weak corner, but should be pushed by JC transfer Mickey Sutton. Donovan said he thought freshmen Tony Fudge and Gary Lowry will be vying for playing time in the secondary, along with lettermen Terry Thomas and Steve Chalcraft. JC transfer Scott Ellig earned the starting job at weak safety after a fine showing in spring football. If the defensive line needs shoring up for some reason, tackle-noseguard-tackle (TNT) coach Mike Van Diest could press Mike Crouse, Dave Paoli or Dave Chaplin into duty. “I felt very good about our defense after spring football ended,” Donovan said. “Defensively, as well as offensively, we need the established players to serve as a focal point for the rest of the football team. We want the established players to have success, and that success will serve as a catalyst to total team success.”
All-American candidate Kent Clausen (left, also see page 16) stops a Boise State runner with help from Arnie Rigoni (56) and Dave Paoli (right). All three lettermen are back this season.
Linebacker Jim Hogan (42) wrestles down an opponent, as safety Jay Becker (bottom) helps out, and lineman Bret Barrick (left, 73) runs to the action. All three players are returning starters.

All-American Candidate
Kent Clausen 6-4 235 Missoula ’
Kent Clausen plays with a lot of “h eart,” and in the same way he is the heart of the Grizzly defense. Professional scouts will know the plane routes to Missoula very well in the next few m onths, if the 6-4,235-pound senior continues to play the way he did in 1979. His nickname is “Claw” and a look at his defensive statistics show he has an uncanny ability to get his “claws” on opposing ball carriers. Last year he recorded 110 tackles from his middle linebacker slot — and that was in only seven games. T hat’s an average tackle ratio of 15.7 per game. He also had two interceptions and two sacks. “With his size and speed Kent definitely has a future in pro football,” said head coach Larry Donovan. “He is coming off a back injury with good results, and we plan on featuring him in our defensive package.” Clausen had considerable success his junior year, making 102 tackles in 11 games. His 102 stops in 1978 is an even m ore impressive figure, considering that was his first season at middle linebacker. Senior hast year he had 10 or more tackles in all of his seven games. In the season T MP° ener asainst W ashington State he had 14 tackles. He was impressive in other contests, including 21 stops in a win over Idaho State; 19 tackles and a
sack against the University of Idaho; 18 stops versus Boise State, and in a victory over W eber State he had 12 tackles, two interceptions, blocked a pass and recovered a fumble. Another impressive fact is that he first injured his back against N orthern Arizona — the second game of the season. After starting against M ontana State, the eighth game of the season, the coaches had to remove him from the game because he was in too much pain. “I was disappointed about not being able to play the entire season,” Clausen said, “but I’m anxious for this year’s. I want to prove I’m 100 percent, and also want to finish out with a winning season.” A two-time All-Big Sky Conference selection at linebacker, Clausen was mentioned in several preseason publications last year as an AllAmerican, and 1980 should be no different. Clausen, a business major, has also had excellent success in the classroom. The Academic All-American candidate maintains a 3.71 GPA, and has carried a perfect 4.0 the past two quarters. Originally from Aberdeen, S.D., Clausen was an outstanding all-around athlete at Roncalli High School, where he graduated in 1976. As a prep he was all-state in football and basketball, and was the state titlist in the discus. He holds his school’s single-season game points record (46), rebounding record (32) and career rebounding mark. He was recruited to M ontana as a quarterback, and moved to LB his sophom ore season.

Honors Candidates Bart Andrus 6-2, 190
Bret Barrick 6-3V2, 247
Q uarterback
Defensive
Bart proved in the spring that he will be a signal called to be rec koned with this season in the Big Sky Conference. His running ability was proved last year when he gained 83 yards on only 14 carries for a 5.9 average. He also ran back two kickoffs for 56 yards. Coach Larry Donovan said his passing improved drastically in spring football, “especially his ability to find the secondary receiver.” Donovan also said “Bart’s leadership to our football team comes not by what he says, but what he does every play. He does not have experience, but his running ability, the passing game and his ‘game’ attitude make him truly a definite threat offensively.”
“Bret is a solid veteran we are depending upon to provide strength to protect the cornerbacks and give us flexibility in multiple defensive fronts,” Donovan said. Barrick, a threeyear letterman and starter last year, is getting a hard look from the pro scouts. “I have him on my list as a sleeper,” said one scout. Barrick had 50 tackles last season and five sacks, good for minus 25 yards. He was also one of the top shot putters in the Big Sky Conference the past two seasons, despite not being able to practice much because of spring football. One of his best games was against Idaho, when he had nine tackles and two sacks.
Jay Becker 5-10V2,
Pat Curry 6-5Y2) 241
Strong
Defensive
Jay was one of the top 10 tacklers in the secondary in the con ference last season, and ranked fourth on the Grizzlies’ list with 91. He had 10 or more tackles in six of 10 games, including 17 against the University of NevadaReno. Also in that game he had 10 unassisted stops, making many touchdown-saving tackles. “Jay has on every snap a mission to get to the ball,” Donovan said. “His bullet-like approach to tackling is a catalyst to the total defense.”
Potentially one of the best defensive lineman to wear the copper, silver and gold, Pat should have National Football League scouts knocking at his door after this season. He had 63 stops last year and is an excellent pass rusher. “Pat is a great comer with the aggressiveness in at titude and performance that is present in the tremendous player who can make the big play,” Donovan said. “With his height and range he is definitely a threat to the offense on every play. He is a real snap-to-whistle player.”
Rocky Klever 6-2Y2} 215
Arnie Rigoni
Tailback
N oseguard
A converted quarterback, Rocky is the type of player who could play just about any position and play it well. He was the Grizzlies leading rusher and scorer last season, gaining 679 yards and scoring nine times. He also passed for one TD. “Rocky goes back to the era of the triple threat tailback,” Donovan said. “He can run, kick and pass. His abilities combined make him one of the most versatile backs in college football. Not only is he a true tailback, but also a quarterback of great potential. We are convinced Rocky is truly a quality back.”
One of the strongest players on the team, Arnie was also one of the most consistent players for Montana last year. The three time letterman is the leading returning tackier on the defen sive front, and was the fifth leading Grizzly tackier overall last year. He had 80 tackles, 27 of which were unassisted, and four sacks for minus 31 yards. He had 14 tackles in UM’s opener with Washington State last season. “On defense Arnie is the rally guy, who is a leader,” Donovan said. “His attitude is one of his strongest points. He is a consistent performer, who always has the potential for the big play.”

Big Sky Conference The Big Sky Conference was formed in February 1963, when the presidents and athletic directors of six Rocky Mountain universities met in Spokane. The original conference members were Gonzaga, Idaho, Idaho State, Montana, Montana State and Weber. Gonzaga entered the conference as a non-football playing school. The conference derived its name from a pair of Montanans and a Washington sports editor. A. B. Guthrie, Choteau, Mont., wrote a novel titled “The Big Sky,” and Jack Hallowell, former Montana State Advertising director, promoted the Big Sky theme as a nickname for the state. Harry Missildine, Spokesman-Review sports editor, picked up the name and in a sports column promoted the name Big Sky as the name of the conference. On Feb. 25, 1963, the conference adopted the name—Big Sky Athletic Conference. In 1970 the conference expanded to include Northern Arizona University, Flagstaff, Ariz., and Boise State College, Boise, Idaho. Both entered as football playing schools. Nevada-Reno became the newest member of the Big Sky July 1, 1979. Jack Friel became the first commissioner in 1963, and the offices were established in Pullman, Wash., Friel’s home. Following Friel’s retirement in July 1971, the offices were moved to Boise, Idaho, and John Roning was named commissioner. Steve Belko was named commissioner and assumed duties July 1, 1977, following Roning’s retirement. S teve Belko

Grizzly Awards Each year five outstanding University of Montana football players are recipients of awards. The Terry Dillon Award, honoring the outstanding back, was established in 1964 following the accidental death of former Grizzly Terry Dillon. Dillon played defensive and offensive halfback for UM from 1960 to 1962. He started at defensive halfback for the National Football League Minnesota Vikings. The Paul Weskamp Award was established in memory of Paul Weskamp, a tackle on Ed Chinske’s 1954 Grizzlies. The award honors UM’s outstanding lineman and was established by the citizens of Ronan, Mont. The Golden Helmet Award honors the hardest hitter on the team. It was set up on a nationwide basis by the Coca-Cola Company in 1967. The Larry Miller Award is given in memory of the great Grizzly lineman and wrestler who competed for UM in 1969 and 1970. Miller died in an automobile accident in 1974. The award honors the team’s outstanding defensive lineman. The Steve Carlson award is given to the team’s most valuable player in memory of the former Grizzly football player who died in 1977. Guy Bingham

Missoula, site of the University of Montana’s attractive campus (top photo), is surrounded by the unspoiled high country of Montana’s Rocky Mountains. Twenty five miles south of the University, Bass Creek Canyon (bottom photo) beckons toward the heart of the Selway-Bitterroot, the nation’s largest wilderness. Six other wilderness areas, including the million-acre Bob Marshall, lie within an hour-and-a-half of the campus.
