(circa 1898)

The University of M ontana in Missoula is located in a m ountain forest setting in beautiful W estern M ontana. It is halfway betw een Glacier and Yellow stone national parks. Four wilderness areas are located near Missoula. The natural surroundings offer excellent opportunities for hunting, fishing, backpacking, river floating, cam ping and other o utdoor recreational pursuits. Two excellent winter ski areas are located within m inutes of the University. Several other ski areas are only a couple of hours away by car. UM ow ns and operates its own golf course adjacent to cam pus. The University of M ontana is one of the W est’s pioneers in education an d was chartered February 17, 1893. The school open ed in S eptem ber 1895, with 50 students enrolling the first day. Located on 201 acres at the base of M ount Sentinel, UM has grown from 50 students and seven faculty m em bers to a p resent enrollm ent of 9,6 7 9 and approxim ately 408 full-time faculty positions. Through its history, the University of M ontana has

sustained a high standard of academ ic excellence in teaching, research and service. UM offers associate of arts degrees in two areas and bachelor’s degrees in 58 fields. It offers m aster’s degrees in 54 program s and doctoral degrees in 13. The College of Arts and Sciences, which is the core of the University, includes a full range of program s and courses in the life sciences, physical sciences, social sciences and hum anities. The College also offers curricula in interdisciplinary fields ranging from ethnic studies to interdepartm ental studies. Seven professional schools com plete the academ ic program — Business Adm inistration, Fine Arts, Journalism , Education, Forestry, Law, and Pharm acy and Allied H ealth Sciences. The aim of the University is to provide its students with relaxing and meaningful learning experience with the best facilities possible. The adm inistration, faculty and staff strive for this goal.

A cadem ics at UM Add Up To S u ccess The University of M ontana was recent ly aw arded its 25th R hodes Scholarship. UM ranks 18th of all American colleges and universities in the num ber of Rhodes Scholars it has produced, fifth am ong public universities. S tudents are chosen on the basis of scholarship, leadership, energy, com m unity and political involve m ent and character. The UM Biological Station at Flathead Lake, located about 85 miles northeast of Missoula, is the nation’s oldest inland station. The UM research station is one of the finest facilities in the country for freshw ater research. KUFM, a non-com m ercial public radio station operated by the radio-television departm ent of the School of Journalism , is the only National Public Radio station in M ontana. University of M ontana education m a jors com pete very successfully for jobs with 88 percent of those with bachelor’s degrees and 95 percent of those with graduate degrees finding appropriate positions. The D epartm ent of Social Work is fully accredited by the Council on Social Work Education and is the only M ontana school that prepares its graduates to ap p ly for advanced standing in graduate schools of social work. The School of Journalism has had 25 of its students selected as Sears Congres sional interns — m ore than any other journalism school in the country. During the four-m onth internship, students work for a United States C ongressm an or S enator and also attend classes. The D epartm ent of D ram a/D an ce has a professional theater group — the M on tana R epertory T heatre — based on c a m p u s . T h e M o n ta n a R e p e rto ry Theatre, which tours throughout the Nor thw est, is the only professional Actors Equity com pany betw een Minneapolis and Seattle. Eight University of M ontana students have been chosen to receive T rum an Scholarships. The national scholarship is given annually to students com m itted to a governm ent career who have superior academic ability and leadership potential. The D epartm ent of A nthropology has the largest collection of artifacts and records of pre-history in the region. The School of Business is the only business school in M ontana to be ac credited by the Am erican Assembly of Collegiate Schools of Business at the graduate level.

Bridget Clarke is the University of M ontana’s 25th Rhodes Scholar.

More than 55 percent of the business school’s accounting graduates pass the Certified Public A ccountant Exam on their first try. This is m ore than three times the national first-time success rate of 18 percent.

The D epartm ent of Geology has a n a tional reputation. In cooperation with Purdue University, a field station has been set up in southw estern M ontana. The departm ent also provides hands-on experience for students in the minerals, rocks and paleontology laboratories at the University’s Seismic Station and in the E arthquake R esearch Laboratory. The D epartm ent of G eography has one of the region’s best cartography laboratories where students learn to make m aps and interpret aerial photography. T he D e p a rtm e n t of Flealth and Physical Education is one of a handful in the country that trains students to be athletic trainers. And it is the only p ro gram in the state to offer a Master of Science in Physical Education. The Native American Studies program at the University of M ontana is regarded by Indian educators as one of the four most outstanding in the nation. M ontana had four Academ ic AllA m ericans in 1988 in Mike M cGowan, Rick Sullivan, Brad S alonen and Jo h n H uestis—the m ost by any Division I pro gram in the nation. Last season the UM football team had 17 players nam ed to the All-Big Sky C onference academ ic team , m ore than any other conference school. M ontana has had num erous A cadem ic All-Americans in other sports as well.

Senior linebacker Mike McGowan sacks Jackson State quarterback Shawn Gregory in UM’s 48-7 first round playoff win over the Tigers last season. McGowan has been a first team GTE Academ ic All-American the previous two season s and m aintains a 3.97 GPA.

Outlook, Honors Candidates â&#x2013;

Mike T revathan

■1990 Grizzly Football OutlookWith back-to-back appearances in the I-AA football playoffs, the University of Montana football team will be hard-pressed for an en core performance for the 1990 season. Last season the Grizzlies not only won a school record 11 games, going 11-3, but they also advanced to the national semi-finals, los ing to eventual champion Georgia Southern, and finished the season ranked sixth in the country. There are 16 starters back from that record-setting team, along with 47 lettermen and nine All-Big Sky Conference selections. However, gone from the ’89 team are two-time conference defen sive MVP Tim Hauck at safety, as well as three-time first team all

“Grady is definitely our leader, and is one of the best athletes in our program,” Read said. “We also have a lot of confidence in Brad (Lebo), who brings us a pro-type throwing dimension.” With the return of Clark, Trevathan, Whitney, Shannon Cabunoc and Joe Farrish at receiver, “our depth there is better than ever.” Junior speedster Tony Roberts could be a factor, along with JC transfer Marvin Turk, and redshirt freshmen Bill Cockhill and Chris Jenkins. Sophomore letterman Rice, junior college transfer Marc Monestime and redshirt freshman Ted Riddall make running back a very solid position, with a couple of other JC transfers also vying for playing time. “This position is a lot like the defensive line depthwise,” Read said. On the offensive line, Erps and senior Rick Kuhl are at guards, Gilbreth and redshirt junior Steve Premock are at tackles, and Germer will start at center. There is decent depth at tackle with Bryan Payne and JC transfer Jason Barker. Veteran Scott McCoy is a solid player, and redshirt freshman Frank Garrett is a fine, young prospect. Six of Montana’s seven-plus starters back on defense are 1990 honors candidates. That group includes Tripp, OLB Mike McGowan, safety Galen Lawton, cornerback Kevin Morris, and linemen Joe Kalafat and Kirk Murphy. The Grizzlies were among the I-AA leaders in numerous defen sive statistics. UM was first in the nation against the rush, allowing 70.2 yards a game, and first in the Big Sky in scoring defense, allow ing 19.3 points per game. Other starters back on “D” are linebackers Steve Collins and Paul LeProwse, and linemen Nels Kludt, Thad Huse and Wade Thoemmes. Junior Gregg Smerker could start left end, and sophomore Kelly McCallum is just one of several up-and-coming young players. “We have lots of depth at end and tackle, with an extreme varie ty of styles,” Read said. “We have strength and quickness, and more depth than any other position on the team .” McGowan is UM’s leading returning tackier, with 82 stops last year, while Tripp is second with 70. Collins, LeProwse and sophomore Chad Lembke are all big-play calibre players. One or more of the four quality incoming freshmen linebackers could see playing time in their initial seasons. Sophomore letterman Sean Dorris is the heir-apparent at free safe ty. He replaces Hauck, who was a finalist for the Walter Payton Award, given to the I-AA Player of the Year. At strong safety Lawton is the third leading returning tackier, as he had 57 stops and four interceptions in ’89. He was a second team all-league pick last year. Morris is the incumbent at right corner, while Don Graves, also a senior, will get the nod at left corner. Transfers Clarence Reese and Dethrick Slocum were quality corners in their junior college pro grams, and could be impact players. With Farmer gone the punting job is up for grabs between Whitney and Kirk Duce. Farmer has been an All-American punter the last two seasons, and was ranked third in the nation last season and second the previous year. Duce has been among the league leaders in field goals the past two seasons. His 157 career points is the fifth most in UM history. In last year’s playoffs he was a perfect six-for-six in field goal attempts, making all four tries against Eastern Illinois. Cabunoc, a junior, was one of the top returners in the league last year, as he was second in kickoff (21.8 average) and punt returns (9.4 average). Read said the 1990 schedule, “starts out awfully tough at Oregon State, but if we’ve ever had a team with enough talent, this is the one. McNeese State will also be a tough non-league game for us.” The Grizzlies open their Big Sky season at home against Eastern Washington, Sept. 29, and also play Northern Arizona, Montana State, and Idaho at home. “Eastern came on strong the last half of the season last year, and are a difficult conference opener,” Read said. “But, we play three of our first four games at home, and that’s a positive. “If you’re going to win the Big Sky, momentum is a big factor, and our schedule gives us a chance for that momentum,” said Read, who was chosen as the Big Sky Coach of the Year in 1989. “The league will again have good balance, and although Idaho should be good, the gap between Idaho and the rest of the league has closed.”

Guard Rick Erps lead s the way, as quarterback Grady Bennett looks for running room. league linebacker Mike Rankin. On offense UM lost All-Americans Kirk Scrafford and Jay Fagan from the offensive line, and punter/halfback Jody Farmer. “The interesting thing about the 1989 team is that it was basically a no-name team, except for a couple of players, and the ’88 team (which went 8-4) had a lot of sophomores and juniors,” said fifthyear UM head coach Don Read. “We made some changes last year, but the big thing was that we had the offense rise to the occasion one day, and then the defense would come through in the next,” Read said. “I feel there is room for improvement on this football team, and we have many key players back for their senior seasons.” One of those key players is senior quarterback Grady Bennett, a second team All-Big Sky selection, who set UM single-season records with 3,091 yards passing and 3,281 total yards. The 6-3, 205-pounder was fifth in the country in total offense with 298.3 yards a game. He passed for 20 touchdowns and ran for five more. UM was one of the top offensive teams in I-AA last season, rank ed 15th in the nation in total offense, averaging 412.1 yards a game. UM was fourth in I-AA in passing, averaging 300.1 yards a game. All-league honorable mention players back on offense are senior receivers Mike Trevathan and Matt Clark, and junior linemen Chad Germeriand Rick Erps. Another starter back on offense is receiver Craig Whitney, as well as half-time starters Tony Rice at halfback and Damon Gilbreth at tackle. Three of UM’s four 1990 All-American candidates are on offense. They include Bennett, Trevathan and Germer. The Grizzlies’ defen sive nominee is inside linebacker Bryan Tripp. “We have potential to improve, but that doesn’t relate to the winloss column,” Read said. “The big thing for us is that we don’t just have players with experience, but we have players who have won, too. The combination of the two is a double plus.”

Grady came into his own as one of the premier quarterbacks at the Division I-AA level last season, starting all 14 games in Montana’s record-setting, 11-3 year. He broke four school records last season, including 3,091 yards passing, and his 4,773 yards passing is second most in Grizzly history, trailing only Marty Mornhinweg (6,083 yards, 1980-84). He was fifth in the nation in total offense last year, averaging 298.3 yards a game. He was rewarded for his consistent play last year, as he was named to the Big Sky Conference’s second team. He passed for 200 or more yards in 10 of 11 regular-season games, had five games in which he passed for more than 300 yards, and threw for 350 or more yards four times. In 1989, he passed for two touchdowns or more in seven games, and had three or more TDs in three contests. He is also a very effective ball-carrier, scoring five times via the rush. “We have high expectations of Grady for the 1990 season, because he improved drastically last year,” said UM head coach Don Read. “He has a ton of confidence. When you size up the con ference, Grady’s experience and ability add up to an outstanding senior year. “Grady is a well-balanced quarterback,” Read continued. “He’s a good passer, sees the field well, thinks well under pressure, and can move his feet very well. He is one of the best all-around athletes I’ve ever coached, and I think he could be a dominant player in several sports.” He set a school record with 3,281 total yards, rushing for 190, and passing for 3,091. He also set school standards for completions (247) and most plays (531) last year. His career-bests are 396 yards passing in a 48-13 home win over Boise State in ’89, and he rushed for 55 yards in a 40-22 home victory over Nevada last year. Bennett received the Tony Barbour Award last year, given annually to the UM player“who best exemplifies outstanding practice habits and makes an unselfish contribution for the betterment of the team .” A redshirt in 1987, Bennett transferred to UM from Montana State. At Flathead High School he was an all-state quarterback, honorable mention all-state in basketball, and all-conference in track. His prep grid coach was Bob Raeth. He has been an All-Big Sky all-academic choice the past two years, maintaining a 3.13 GPA in Business Education. This past December he married the former Amy Schuldheiss.

CHAD GERMER 6-6!/2, 2 7 1 , CENTER, JUNIOR from THREE FORKS, MONTANA One of the primary reasons for Montana’s offensive success last season was Chad, who was an honorable mention All-Big Sky Conference selection as a sophomore. In 1989 the Grizzlies were 15th in the nation in total offense (412.1 yards per game), fourth in passing (300.1 ypg), and ninth in scoring (33.0 ppg). Germer, who started in all 14 games in ’89, was named Montana’s co-Sophomore of the Year, sharing the award with defensive end Kirk Murphy. “Chad is one of three great centers I’ve had in my coaching career,” said Grizzly head coach Don Read; “and the other two played in the National Football League. They were Chuck Bradley (Chargers) and Fred Quillen (49ers). “Chad has tremendous feet, plays aggressively, and has good size which helps him in both run and pass blocking,” Read said. “He rarely mlakes mistakes and plays with a lot of confidence all of the time. “Last year we had no fumbles due to a center snap, which certainly is an outstanding statistic,” said UM line coach Bob Beers. “Chad called all of our signals on the offensive line. He is strong (385-pound bench press) and fast (4.74 in the 40). “He is just a very, very solid performer, and made very few mistakes as a sophomore,” Beers said. “He was not only one of our most consistent players, but he also improved every game.” He was all-state in football and basketball at Three Forks High School, and also lettered in track. His high school football coach was Dan Rask. He majors in Business.

11-American C andidates------------------MIKE TREVATHAN 6-1, 185, WIDE RECEIVER, SENIOR from THOUSAND OAKS, CALIFORNIA Great hands, patterns and speed best describe Mike, who had exactly 1,000 receiving yards last season, counting the three I-AA playoff games. He led the team with 710 yards receiving in the regular season. An honorable mention All-Big Sky Conference pick last year, he was eighth in the league in receiv ing with 4.2 catches a game. He was UM’s co-Junior of the Year, sharing the award with cornerback Kevin Morris. He enters the 1990 season ranked eighth in career receiving yards with 963, and his 710 yards last year rank him fifth in single-season history. “Mike’s ability to get open and catch the ball is as good as anyone in collegiate football today,” said UM head coach Don Read. “He’s a big-play kid, who could easily be one of the true outstand ing returners in college football today, if we used him there. “He’s smart and tough, and very consistent,” Read said. “We throw to a lot of receivers (eight with 10 or more catches in ’89), thus he doesn’t accumulate the stats that a receiver of his ability would normally have.” Trevathan had career-highs of 10 catches for 153 yards in Montana’s nationally televised game with Idaho last year. In an early-season win over Portland State he had eight receptions for 142 yards and a touchdown. In the 1989 playoffs he had two 100-yard receiving games against Jackson State (8-147-2) and Eastern Illinois (7-102-0) in first round and quarterfinal games, respectively. Injuries plagued him his first two seasons at UM, but he started all 14 games in ’89. At Thousand Oaks High School he had an outstanding senior year with 48 catches for 785 yards and six touchdowns, and he had four interceptions. He wasfirst team All-C.I.F., All-Area, All-Valley and first team all-league for coach Bob Richardson. He capped his senioryear in theVentura County All-Star Game, scoring three TDs, and was named the Offensive Player of the Game. (Pronounced Treh-vay-than) Business Administration major. YEAR

BRYAN TRIPP 6-2, 2 2 2 , LINEBACKER, SENIOR from MISSOULA, MONTANA Montana’s second leading returning tackier, Bryan had 70 stops last year, including five sacks and three tackles for losses. He was in the linebacker rotation prior to the season, and started the last 10 regular-season games and all three playoff games, when starter Paul LeProwse was forced to miss the season with an injury. In his first collegiate start he had 10 tackles against Fresno State. He had seven or more tackles in six of 11 regular-season games. He had a career-high 14 tackles in a 17-2 road win at Montana State last year. He was an honorable mention All-Big Sky Conference selection in 1989. He was also named to the conference’s all-academic team, with a 3.18 GPA in Business Administration. “Bryan is as tough as any linebacker we’ve had at Montana,” said Grizzly head coach Don Read. “He’s an aggressive, smart, hard-working, competitive player. He’s a leader and a team guy, who should have a super year. “He has a nose for the football, and anticipates and reacts exceptionally well,” Read said. “He is equally as good against the run and pass, is a very disciplined player assignment-wise, and is always in the right place to make the play.” A transfer from Wenatchee Junior College, Bryan had 109 tackles as a sophomore. That season he was named all-conference, team MVP, and team captain. He was the only player from his league named to the JC Grid-Wire Scholar/Athlete All-American team with a 3.5 GPA. At Loyola High School in Missoula he was an All-State and all-conference tight end. His father, Gene (Junior) Tripp, lettered in football at UM in 1963-64. Business Administration major. YEAR

Bennett had his best day ever with 387 yards and three TDs, but was sacked eight times, five times by Cox. Griz safety Tim Hauck had a great game with 25 tackles—14 unassisted, along with a fumble recovery for a TD and an interception, and was the Big Sky’s POW.

GAME NOTES: Interception was the BIG word here, as the Grizzlies picked off a Big Sky record 10 passes, ty ing the 1-AA record. BSU’s 12 turnovers also tied a 1-AA record. Nine different players picked off the Broncos’ two quarterbacks, as cornerback Marcus Bowen was the only UM player with two “picks.” Kevin Morris returned one interception for a 98-yard TD. Bennett just missed the 400-yard plateau, passing for 396 yards and two TDs. Rice rushed for two TDs—giving him five in his last two games. BSU’s Winky White had nine catches for 200 yards, for more than half of his team’s offense. BSU rushed for just 16 yards on 16 carries. UM had a season-high 94 plays, and had the ball 37:10 minutes. Montana led 31-7 at halftime.

GAME NOTES: Montana probably felt like it was in the Twilight Zone, as NAU took a 7-0 first quarter lead on two safeties and a field goal. UM then came back on a TD run and TD pass by Bennett. This game will best be remembered, though, for the emergence of redshirt freshman running back Tony Rice, who replaced Farmer who was injured late in the second quarter. Rice had TD runs of 1, 10 and 7 yards, and three catches for 72 yards. Bennett suffered a career-high four interceptions, but NAU was picked off twice and lost three fumbles—all in the first half. Hauck had another great game with 19 tackles.

A key interception by Grizzly safe ty Galen Lawton led to UM’s first TD—the only points it would need. A third-and-14 Bennett to Mike Trevathan pass to the MSU five-yard-line was the key play, as Ben nett took it in three plays later. LBs Mike Rankin and Bryan Tripp each had a game-high 14 tackles. MSU linebacker Mychal Kempt had 13 stops and a sack.

UM-Bennett 9x16-1 = 88-0 TDs. MSU-Tetrault 3x13-2 = 43-0.

Receiving UM-Ciark 3-15-0; Rice 3-15-0; Trevathan 2-40-0. MSU-Stoitz 3-43-0.

GAME NOTES: The Thanksgiving vacation crowd of 11,854 (the largest of any 1-AA first round game) held its collective breaths when the Tigers capitalized on a UM fumble, as QB Shawn Gregory hit a wide open Tim Barnett for a 48-yard TD to give JSU an early 7-0 lead. The Grizzlies then scored in five of its next seven posses sions, and Gregory left the game with an injury early in the second quarter. Bennett and frosh Brad Lebo passed for 450 yards and five TDs. For the first time in history three UM receivers had 100 yards or more receiving. Ben nett passed for 239 yards and three TDs—all in the first half. The Tigers had just one net yard rushing as UM had nine sacks (JSU had seven), three by end Dan Edwards, and two by OLB Mike McGowan. Hauck, LB Steve Col lins and McGowan had 11 tackles each, as did JSU’s Darion Connor.

GAME NOTES: This was a classic battle between two

GAME NOTES: Junior QB Raymond Gross passed for

hard-nosed teams. The outcome was in doubt until the Grizzlies recovered an on-side kick and ran the clock out. Kicker Kirk Duce overcame a hard, frozen field and was perfect on four field goal attempts, and was six-of-six in FGs in the playoffs. Trevathan had his second straight 100-yard receiving game. “True” freshman Mike Rummell had career-highs of seven catches for 85 yards and a TD for the Panthers. Rankin led UM with 16 tackles, and cornerback Kevin Morris had his second interception in the playoffs. Panther ILB Jeff Mills had a game-high 17 tackles. Montana had the highest attendance of any quarterfinal game with 12,285 fans. It was the Grizzlies’ eighth straight win, and gave them a school-record 11 vic tories.

a career-high 180 yards and two TDs, and the Eagles’ much-heralded running attack racked up 301 yards and three TDs, as 10 different players carried the ball. GSC scored two TDs in the first half on a blocked punt (Farmer’s second of his career) and a “Hail Mary” pass at the halftime gun. Farmer rushed for 66 yards and a score, and also scored on a reception. UM’s Glenn had nine catches for 118 yards. Rankin had a game-high 14 tackles (35 in the playoffs), while Hauck had 11 (32 in the playoffs), plus an interception. For GSC it was their 36th straight home win. GSC won the national title with a 37-34 victory over Stephen F. Austin, going 15-0. All four of the Eagles’ playoff wins, including the national championship game, were at home.
