7 he 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 Yellowstone national parks. Four w ilderness areas are located n ear Missoula. T he natural surroundings offer excellent opportunities for hunting, fishing, backpacking, river floating, cam ping and other out door recreational pursuits. Two excellent winter ski areas are within minutes of the University, and several other ski areas are only a couple of hours away by car. UM owns and operates its own golf course near the campus. The University of Montana is one of the West's pioneers in education and celebrated its Centennial last year, as it was chartered February 17, 1893. The school opened in Septem ber 1895 with 50 students enrolled the first day. Located on 207 acres at the base of Mount Sentinel, UM has grown from 50 students and seven faculty members to a present enrollment of over 11,000 and approximately 4 5 0 full-time faculty posi tions.
Throughout its history, the University of M ontana has sustained a high standard of academic excellence in teaching, research and service. UM offers a general associate of arts degree and bachelor's degrees in 50 fields. It offers master's degrees in 45 programs and doctoral degrees in nine. The College of Arts and Sciences, which is the core of the University, includes a full range of programs and courses in the life sciences, physical sciences, social sciences and humanities. The college also offers curricula in interdisciplinary fields such as ethnic studies and liberal studies. The University also has schools of business administration, fine arts, journalism, education, forestry, law, and pharmacy and allied health sciences.

A ca d em ics T h e University of Montana has had 28 Rhodes Scholars. Charlotte Morrison is UM’s fifth Rhodes Scholar winner in seven years. UM ranks 15th of all American colleges and universities in the number of Rhodes Scholars it has produced, fourth among public universities. Students are chosen on the basis of scholarship, leadership, energy, community and political involvement, and character. The Flathead Lake Biological Station, located about 80 miles north of Missoula, is the oldest biological station west of the Mississippi. The UM research station is one of the finest facilities in the country for ecological studies and freshwater re search. KUFM, a non-commercial, public radio station operated by the Telecommunications Center reaches an estimated 400,000 Mon tanans in central and western Montana. School of Education graduates compete very successfully for jobs. A high percentage of those with bachelor's degrees and graduate degrees find teaching, administrative and other education-related positions in Montana and many other states. The Department of Social Work is fully accredited by the Council on Social Work Education, making UM the only Montana public school that prepares its graduates to apply for advanced standing in graduate schools of social work. The Department of Drama/Dance has a professional theater group -- the Montana Repertory Theatre -- based on campus. The Montana Repertory Theatre, which tours throughout the Northwest, is the only touring professional actors equity company between Minneapolis and Seattle. Eight University of Montana students have received Truman Scholarships. The national scholarship is given annually to students com mitted to a government career who have superior academic ability and leadership po tential. The Department of Anthropology has the largest collection of artifacts and records of prehistory in the region.

Year in, year out, a high percentage of the school's accounting graduates pass the Certi fied Public Accountant Exam on their first try. The Department of Geology has a strong, nationally known program in traditional geol ogy and environmental geoscience. Because the solution to most geologic problems in volves a combination of field and laboratory study, the department offers a wide range of field and laboratory courses and encourages a broad, multi-disciplinary program of study. The Department of Geography has one of the Northwest's best cartography laboratories, where students learn to make maps and inter pret aerial photography.

O verall
II Coach of the Year after his Viking team won the Western Conference championship. Read’s college coaching record is 1 4 1 -1 2 5 -1 , and his overall head coaching mark at all levels is 1 7 4 -1 3 1 -1 . He has been in the coaching profession 3 5 years, beginning in 1 9 5 9 as an assistant at Placer High School in Auburn, California. His first head coaching job was at Petaluma High School in California in 1 9 6 2 . He lives and coaches by many personal philosophies. Some include: “Success is a by-product of hard work; expect players to make a commitment to football and other aspects of school life; football shapes character; and a team must always play with emotion and intensity.” Read wrote a book, The Complete Passing Game, has worked football camps in several states, and has also written more than 100 articles for athletic and coaching magazines. While coaching at Oregon, he worked with former All-Pro and current TV color analyst, Dan Fouts. At PSU he worked with former pro quarterback (and current NFL coach) June Jones. During his tenure at he has Montana coached quarterbacks Grady Bennett, Brad Lebo, and Dave Dickenson -- the top three career passers in school history. He earned his undergraduate degree in Social Science in 1 9 6 0 at Sacramento State, and his master’s degree in H.P.E there in 1 9 6 2 . Don and his wife, Lois, have a daughter, Beth, and a son, Bruce. Bruce has been UM’s special teams coach the past eight seasons.
D o n Read is the all-time winningest coach in Montana history with 72 victories in just nine seasons. Last season he guided Montana to its fifth NCAA Division I-AA playoff berth - and UM’s ninth straight winning season. Last year the Grizzlies advanced to the I-AA playoffs the fourth time in Read’s tenure. Since taking over the Grizzly football program in 1986, Read’s teams have never had a losing season, going 6-4, 6-5, 8-4, 11-3, 7-4, 7-4, 6-5, 10-2, and 11-3 last year. His record at UM is 72-34 (.679). He is 48-21 (.696) in Big Sky Conference games. Read’s winning percentage of .679 is the best of any Montana coach with more than three years of tenure and the seventh best in Big Sky history. His 72 overall wins and 48 Big Sky victories are the second most in Big Sky history. The ’94 team was the fourth one in Read’s tenure to advance to the I-AA playoffs, and it was also the second to advance to the semifinals. The Grizzlies have participated in the playoffs in 1994, 1993, 1989, 1988, and 1982. Montana’s 11 wins last year tied the school record for the most in school history. Read’s 1989 team also went 11-3. In the 1993 season, UM set a school record with 11 straight Big Sky wins, dating back to the 1992 season. In ’89, his fourth year at Montana, Read brought the Grizzly program to new heights, as UM won a school-record 11 games. Read was recognized for that success in 1989, as he was named the Big Sky Conference’s Coach of the Year, and he was so-honored again in 1993, becoming the second coach in Montana history to be named the league’s coach of the year twice. Former Griz head coach Jack Swarthout was the Big Sky’s Coach of the Year in 1969 and 1970. In Montana’s 95-year-old football history, the Grizzlies have won seven or more games 11 times, and Read’s teams have accomplished that feat six times in his nine seasons at UM. The veteran coach came to Montana from Portland State, where he headed up that program from 1981 to 1985, and 1968 to 1971. Between his PSU stays were head jobs at the University of Oregon (1974-76) and Oregon Tech (1977-80). His Oregon Tech teams were ranked ninth in the nation in 1979, and seventh in 1980. In 1984 he led PSU to an 8-3 record and was named the Division

"He is extremely creative, and along with that creativity he possesses a disciplined approach to teaching and coaching." "He is well thought of in the coaching profession at all levels," Read said. "Mick loves The University of Montana, and he truly bleeds copper, gold and silver. He is committed to excellence." Montana's offensive line has excelled under Dennehy's guid ance. A good indicator of that was last season the Grizzly offense had one first team All-Big Sky Conference selection, as well as a second team pick, and three honorable mention choices. Dennehy was also instrumental in the development of former All-American tackle Scott Gragg, who now plays for the New York Giants. The Grizzlies have ranked in the top two in the nation in passing offense the last two seasons in a row. Last year Montana led the Big Sky and was second in the nation in passing, averaging 372.3 yards coach at Western for three seasons. a game.

UM Lubick at Montana State from 1980was fifth in Division I-AA in offense that year, averaging 468.6 yards 81. a game. A 1973 graduate of Montana with a B.A. degree in Education, A native of Butte, the 45-year-old Dennehy had been the head he earned a M. Ed. in Educational Administration at Washington State in 1977. He was a standout safety for the Grizzlies in 1971-72. He is tied for second in single-season Big Sky history with 10 interceptions in 1972, when he led the league in that category. That year he was named first team all-conference. He is ranked among the confer ence leaders with 16 career interceptions. Dennehy started his coaching career at Colton High School in Washington, where his teams won state championships in 1975 and 1976, and he compiled a four-year record of 40-4. He then moved on to Helena High School, and was head grid coach there for three seasons, before serving the two-year stint at MSU. He was head football coach at Campbell County High School from 1983 to 1987, before he took the head job at Western. At Campbell High he was Coach of the Year in 1983 and had a 29-25 record. In his prep coaching career he had an 88-60 overall record, was named coach of the year four times, and was twice selected to be a Shrine Game coach. Mick and his wife, Sheila, have two sons: Jake, 20, a sopho more safety for the Grizzlies, and Mark, 17. “We have always been wide open offensively. This year will be no exception. We will utilize more motion and formations, but what you've seen, is again what you'll get. Our emphasis this past spring was once again to move the ball more efficiently on the ground, and at times we had great success. This should help our offense a great deal overall."

He played prep football at Henley High School in Klamath Falls, Oregon, where he was honorable mention all-state at wide receiver and punter. He led the state in punting his senior year, and was team captain and MVP. The Grizzlies have excelled in special teams during Read’s tenure, setting numerous school records. Last year the Grizzlies were nationally ranked in several catagories, including net punting, punt returns, and kickoff returns. In 1993, UM was first in the I-AA ranks in punt returns, averaging 14.6 yards an attempt. In 1988 Montana led the nation in net punting, averaging 39.8 yards an attempt, and was second in 1989 (38.6-yard average).

MISSOULA, MT —
A third straight Division I-AA playoff berth may be a lot to ask for, but lOth-year University of Montana head football coach Don Read thinks that his 1995 Grizzly team has the potential to be one of his best teams ever. Last season the Grizzlies went 11-3 overall, advancing to the I-AA semi-final game, losing to eventual national champion Youngstown State. UM was 5-2 (tie, second) in the Big Sky Confer ence.
seasons. Gragg was the 54th selection by the New York Giants in the National Football League draft. “We lost a ton of good players to graduation, but we still have a lot of talent on both sides of the football, and our potential is very, very good,” said Read, who has a record of 72-34 at Mon tana. “We are still putting the pieces of the puzzle together. ”
A POSITION-BY-POSITION BREAKDOWN ON OFFENSE QUARTERBACK: Dickenson, who was third in the Walter Payton Trophy (I-AA MVP) balloting last year, has passed for 6,904 career yards. He needs just 875 more yards to break Grady Bennett’s record of 7,778 yards, set from 198890. Read said there is “a real dogfight” for the backup role at quarterback between sophomore Josh Paffhausen and redshirt freshman Brian Ah Yat. Transfers Todd Dellinger (a sophomore from Western Carolina) and Darren Rowell (a junior from College of the Siskiyous) are also in the picture, although Rowell will more than likely redshirt.

“Last spring we got big effort and big plays on offense and defense, ” Read said. “We are very optimistic about the ’95 team. But, we are not near where we need to be, which is to click on all eight cylinders.” The Grizzlies return only 12 starters overall, but one crucial player is back -- senior quarter back Dave Dickenson, the Big Sky Conference MVP on offense the past two seasons. Dickenson is surrounded by a good nucleus of returnees. Montana has seven starters back on an offense that was ranked fifth in the nation in total offense in ’94, averaging 452.51 yards a game. Last year Montana was second in the country in passing yards at 372.3 yards per game, and fifth in scoring with 37.4 points a game. However, All-American tackle Scott Gragg, all-league running back Damon Boddie, and UM’s two all-time leading receivers, Shalon Baker and Scott Gumsey are gone, leaving a huge void as far as offensive productivity is concerned. Baker and Gumsey combined for 5,135 yards and 43 touchdowns in their careers, while Boddie led the team in rushing the past two
Veteran receivers include senior Chase Greene, junior Nate Dolan, and senior Ryan Blanchard. Redshirt freshmen Raul Pacheco and Eleu Kane, both from Honolulu, “also look very good,” Read said. RUNNING BACK: Read called this area, “very solid after spring drills, because of our two young running backs, and the play of our veterans.” UM’s leading returner is senior Kelly Stensrud, who rushed for 240 yards and nine touchdowns last season. Stensrud also had 33 receptions in 1994. Senior Chris Morton rushed for 154 yards last year. Sophomore transfer Josh Branen (Univer sity of San Diego) and freshman Brian Gales, “have both shown signs they can play at this level and help us right away,” Read said. Despite only four starters back on defense, Read thinks his 1995 defense could jell into a topnotch unit. “When I look at our defense and look ahead to this season, the one thing that really jumps out at me is our speed,” Read said. “It’s probably the fastest group we’ve had, and I’m talking about our linemen, our linebackers, and in our second ary. “We lost some outstanding players like Dan
OFFENSIVE LINE: Gragg was not only the biggest player in school history at 6-8, 318 pounds, but he was also a three-year starter and an inspirational leader. However, UM returns several key players on its offensive line. Junior guard Mike Agee has been a starter since his freshman season, and he was a Big Sky second team all-conference pick last year. UM’s other returning starters are senior tackle Eric Simonson, junior center David Kempfert, and junior guard Jeff Zellick. Simonson, Kempfert and Zellick were AllBig Sky honorable mention picks last year. Gragg’s replacement will be 6-7, 300-pound sophomore letterman Jason Baker, who “could be a great one,” Read said. “We feel very good about our offensive line, and what we’re looking for right now is depth,” Read said. Read said that freshmen Scott Curry, Dave Hoit, and Gabe Reece are up-and-coming linemen. “Curry is really going to be a player for us, ” Read said. “And we hope to shore up the line with a couple of more players from the JC ranks. ” WIDE RECEIVER: Despite the loss of Baker and Gurnsey, senior Matt Wells and junior Mike Erhardt, combined for 90 catches, 1,128 yards, and eight touchdowns last season. Wells needs 850 yards to break Gumsey’s career record of 2,574 yards. Read said transfers Joe Douglass (a junior transfer from Oregon State) and Trevor Woods (a sophomore from the University of Ohio), “have both shown that they can help us.”

Downs, Kurt Schilling, Jay Turner, and some others, and even though we return only four starters on defense, we have a bunch of guys who have played a lot of football for us, and we feel good about them as a group.” Read said.

continued from page 12 three times. Schilling was a two-time all-league pick, and led the Grizzlies in tackles in the regularseason with 75 stops. Turner was a second team All-American at tackle and had a school-record 12 quarterback sacks during the regular-season. In all, the Grizzlies lost eight of their top 10 leading tacklers from last season. Of UM’s 42 quarterback sacks, 25 of those were by departed players.

“We did lose a lot of our leadership and several of our top tacklers to graduation, but I think players like Yo (Yohanse) Manzanarez and Brian Toone, along with younger guys like Sean Goicoechea and Blaine McElmurry can pick up the slack for us,” Read said. McElmurry, a free safety, did not participate in spring drills after undergoing shoulder surgery, but he is expected to be fully recovered for the 1995 season. “Like our offense, we have a lot of potential on defense, and that potential is spelled with a capital P,” Read said. “I think it may take awhile for them to start playing together as a unit, but by the middle of the season they could be one of our best groups ever.”
A POSITION-BY-POSITION BREAKDOWN ON DEFENSE: LINEMEN: At end, Manzanarez will be looked for to fill a leadership role. Last year he had 53 tackles and 10 stops for losses. Some of the
speed Read was referring to is owned by ends Corey Falls and Randy Riley, both juniors. Prom ising sophomore end Joe Lehman runs a 4.6 speed in the 40. Toone and Marty Duffin are proven veter ans, and started seven games apiece last year at tackle. Toone did not participate in spring drills because of a lower leg injury. Last year Toone had 38 tackles, three stops for losses and two sacks, while Duffin had 35 tackles. Junior Ryan Thompson is an experi enced veteran at tackle and could start. Newcomer Mike Lorentz, a 6-4, 250-pound freshman transfer from the University of Colo rado, turned a lot of heads in spring drills. “He should be a big-play guy for us,” Read said. “Our defensive front is as good as any we’ve had at Montana, ” Read said. “We might not have any superstars, but we are very, very solid. I think it’s the fastest defensive line that we have had.” LINEBACKER:Despite losing the likes of Downs, Schilling, Garrett Venters (53 tackles) and Dennis Scates (59 tackles) to graduation, this position has several capable replacements. “We have six players battling for three start ing positions, and they are very similar in their style of play and experience level,” Read said. “They are all good athletes, tough kids, who are very capable and smart.” Juniors Mike Bouchee, Mark Hampe, and David Sirmon are the veterans. Sirmon was moved from inside to outside, and may take over for the departed Schilling. Bouchee appears to be the heir-apparent to Downs at one inside spot, while sophomore Jason Crebo may get the nod at the other starting job inside. Senior Mike Kowalski missed spring drills after undergoing knee surgery, but will be at outside linebackerr. Sophomore Greg Fitzgerald was also moved outside, as was Sirmon, who may start there. Promising freshman Eric Buehler was side lined with a knee injury in the spring, but he is also expected to be 100 percent by this fall. SECONDARY: Read said junior strong safety Sean Goicoechea, “had an outstanding spring. Sean’s bigger and faster, and should have a great year,” Read said. He had 45 tackles last season. “McElmurry just got better and better, gameafter-game last season,” Read said. “Sean and Blaine give us an excellent one-two punch at safety.” Seniors Jamer Bartell and Ryan Palma provide quality depth at strong and free safety, respectively. At comerback, senior lettermen Keith Woods and Mike Temple are vying with transfer Billy Ivey (Mt. SAC JC) and junior redshirt Justin Hazel for starting jobs. Temple started twice last season and had 20 tackles. Senior Scott Spraggins will

COACH READ ON THE BIG SKY CONFERENCE “We’ve got some major tests this year in the Big Sky, especially early,” Read said. “We don’t see ourselves as the team to beat in the confer ence this year. We might be listed second, third, or in the middle of the pack. That certainly is more realistic. “Everyone is looking at Boise State, with 18 or 19 starters back from a very good team a year ago,” Read continued. “They look like they have one of their best teams in many years. “Idaho is always in the thick of things, and shouldn’t be overlooked,” Read said. “Both Weber State and Northern Arizona battled us good last year, and Idaho State beat us,” Read said. And Eastern Washington has always been a nemesis for us, and the Bobcats could be one of the most improved teams in the league. “It will be another season of battle after battle every Saturday,” Read said. “I like our schedule early, and hopefully that can give us some momentum. To play at Washington State and then open our Big Sky schedule with Boise will be major roadblocks for us.

“Even though we feel good about our sched ule, those early-season challenges, and the diffi cult road schedule the second half of the season make it extremely challenging,” Read said.

P ayton DAVE DICKENSON, 3V 5 - 1 1 , 1 7 5 , S en ior Q uarterback from Great Falls, M ontana
T h e Big Sky Conference offensive MVP in 1993 and 1994, Dave Dickenson’s winloss record and statistics speak for themselves. He is 18-1 as a starter in regular-season games at Montana, and holds numerous University of Montana passing records. Dickenson was third in the Walter Payton Trophy balloting last season, despite missing two games with a lower leg injury. He was once again first team all-conference, Big Sky MVP, and was named to several All-American teams. He is the only player in Montana history to be named the league MVP on offense. Entering the 1995 season, he was named by The Sporting News and Bob Griese’s College Football Yearbook as Division I-AA’s preseason “Offensive Player of the Year.” Last year he was named second team All-American by the Associated Press. The Sports Network, and the Football Gazette. “Dave is truly one of the most outstanding college quarterbacks ever,” said lOth-year Montana head coach Don Read, who is in his 26th year as a head mentor in the college ranks. “When you think about all of the things that he can do, it’s uncanny.. He really moves around well; he gets rid of the ball quickly; he always throws to the right guy, reads cover -- he’s just the whole package. “But, above and beyond those physical attributes are the other things he does,” Read said. “He provides great leadership, and his competitive nature rubs off on everyone around him. He is extremely intelligent on the line of scrimmage in changing calls, and sizing up the defense. He is just a very well-rounded quarterback. “And to go along with his physical and mental abilities, he seems to be at his best under pressure in critical situations,” Read said. “He’s at his finest in big games when the pressure is on him, and when we need a big play. He’s a big-play guy for us, game-in and game-out. “He’s really worked hard in the off-season, gearing up for 1995,” Read said. “He’s in the best shape he’s been in, for a long, long time. I look for Dave to have a great senior year.” Last season Dickenson was 8-1 as a starter. He was injured in his only loss (at Boise State). In 1994, he led the nation in passing efficiency at 164.5, and was second in the country in total offense, averaging 345.3 yards a game. He has been UM’s Carlson Award (MVP) recipient the last two seasons. As a sophomore he led Division I-AA in total offense with 3,978 yards, averaging 361.6 yards a game -- the second highest total and average in Big Sky history. Also in ’93, he set a school record with 3,640 passing yards, which is fifth most in league history. He also set school records with 32 touchdown passes and 14 rushing TDs that year. As a junior, he set a UM career record with 58 touchdown throws. And last year he completed 68.2 percent (229-of-336) of his passes, breaking the record he set the year before, and setting a Big Sky mark. In the 20 games he has played in the last two seasons, Dickenson has passed for 300 or more yards 12 times. He’s thrown for more than 400 yards five times, and he surpassed the 500-yard mark twice, including a school-record 512 yards in a road win at Idaho in 1993. He begins the 1995 season with 7,326 total yards - 11th best in Big Sky history, and he averages 305.3 yards a game, which is second best in conference history. Over the last two seasons, Dickenson has been the National Player of the Week three times and the Big Sky’s weekly pick on offense on five occasions. Dickenson also excels in the classroom, maintaining a 3.88 GPA in Molecular Biology in a PreMedicine curriculum. Last year he was a second team GTE Academic All-American selection, and he was named to the first team as a sophomore. He is a three-time Big Sky all-academic pick (1992, 93, 94). His success in the I-AA playoffs have been as impressive as his regular-season performances. He set a Division I-AA playoff record in ’93 by completing 84.1 percent (37-of-44) passes in a 49-48 firstround loss to Delaware. In three playoff games versus Delaware in ’93, and Northern Iowa and McNeese State last year, he is 80-of-100 with no interceptions, for 906 yards, and seven touchdowns. Dickenson was injured (ankle and leg) in UM’s second offensive series against McNeese State, and did not participate in the rest of the playoffs. Dave was a two-time first team All-State quarterback at C.M. Russell HighSchool in Great Falls, and he guided the Rustlers to back-to-back 12-0 records andstate “AA” titlesas a junior and senior.Inhis senior season he passed for 2,892 yards and 32 touchdowns and was Montana’s Gatorade Player of the Year in 1990. He passed for 5,212 career yards. His prep coach was Jack Johnson. Dickenson lettered in football, basketball, and golf, and was team captain in all three sports. In addition, he was as All-State pick in basketball as a senior. He is the son of Bob and Sue Dickenson of Great Falls. His brother, Craig is a graduate assistant coach at UM.

Can MIKE AGEE, 2V 6-4 1 /2 , 2 8 0 , Junior Guard from Kalispell, Montana
M ik e started 13 of 14 games last season and played the last part of the season with an ankle injury. He was recognized for his stellar play last season, earning Big Sky Conference second team honors. “Mike is like some of the best offensive linemen that we’ve had at Montana, in that he is such a good athlete,” said Griz head coach Don Read. “So many times offensive linemen are not such great athletes, but he is. He can really move around. He’s got quick feet and he’s a very physical player. “Mike Agee is the most complete offensive linemen you could ever coach, ” Read said. “He can pull, block in the open field, pass block, run block, and he is extremely capable physically. He is also very competitive. “He works very hard in practice and just gets better and better, ” Read said. “He is a total veteran now and always does the right things. He is versatile enough to play center, guard, or tackle for us. We think Mike is one of the best we’ve ever had here. ” Two seasons ago Agee was selected as Montana’s “co-Freshman of the Year, ” sharing the award with fellow “honors candidate” Mike Erhardt. He also excelled in the classroom in 1993 and was named to the Big Sky’s all-academic team with a 3.60 GPA. He started seven games at Montana as a redshirt freshman in 1993. Agee earned eight letters at Flathead High School: three in football and track, and two in wrestling. He was team MVP in football on offense and the Most Valuable Male Athlete in track his senior year. Mike was the state “AA” discus champion his senior season, and had a best throw of 175-5.

Against Northern Iowa, McNeese State and Youngstown State, he had a combined 22 catches for 257 yards and scored a touchdown in each game. (Playoff stats do not count towards regular-season and career stats). “Mike has been a great player for us, and he’s improving all of the time, ” Read said. “He understands our system very well. We see the improvement in everything he does, from blocking, running routes and catching the football, to making the big catch in pressure situations. “The success he had in the playoffs was really important for us, ” Read said. “It was during the playoffs that (Scott) Gumsey had several injuries; Matt Wells was hurting, as was Shalon Baker. We had a situation where we needed someone to step forward, and Mike did. It was good to see him come to the front, and that should help us this season. “He’s played about as many minutes as any of our returning receivers, and he is extremely capable and needs to become a leader for us,” Read said. “The most important thing is that he is confident going into the season. ■ -:-v He’s no longer in the learning stage of his career; he’s now in the productive stage.” Mike had a career-high eight catches for 94 yards and two touchdowns in last year’s 45-0 victory over Cal Poly, SLO. His all-time best game was 10 receptions for 110 yards and one touchdown UM’s first-round victory over Northern Iowa last season.

He played in all 14 games last year and had a total of 45 tackles. “Goke” was also a standout on UM’s special teams and was chosen as the “Special Teams co-Player of the Year,” sharing the award with Josh Remington. “The thing that Sean Goicoechea has done is gained weight,” said head coach Don Read. “He’s about 15 pound heavier than a year ago. We timed him at4.6 in the 40 this past winter, which means he’s not only bigger, but faster too. “Add those two dimensions to the great natural instincts that he has, which are so important when playing in the secondary, and you’ve got an ideal safety,” Read said. “Whether it’s finding the football, reacting to a receiver, or working within coverage, Sean Goicoechea does it all, and he does it well. “He will be very instrumental in the leadership aspect in the secondary this year, . .... and he will certainly be a big cog in our special teams,” Read said. “He willcaptain a lot ofthe special teams in terms of making decisions, and he will play a vital role for us there.” Goicoecheaplayed in all 12 games in 1993 as a redshirt freshman.

DAVID KEMPFERT, 2V 6-4 1/2 , 280, Junior Center from Missoula, Montana A n honorable mention- All-Big Sky Conference selection last season, David started all 11 regular-season games and all three playoff contests in 1994 for the Grizzlies. He was named Montana’s “co-Sophomore of the Year,” sharing the award with free safety Blaine McElmurry and wide receiver Mike Erhardt. “David is probably the hardest-working football player we have in our program,” Read said. “He is a committed player and tries to make every down his absolute best, and he always plays with all of his heart and abilities. “He is also a very intelligent player,” Read said. “He is a solid run and pass blocker, and he now fits into the center position very well. He has a year of experience under his belt, and we see him growing and being a much better player this year. He was a very good player for us last year. “We’re always changing plays on the line of scrimmage in our offensive system, and David is really the catalyst of a lot of what goes on up front,” Read continued. “His ability to understand the system, and get the information back and forth, is really a key for us.” David, and fellow linemen Mike Agee, Eric Simonson, and Jeff Zellick are all a big reason why Montana was ranked fifth in total offense (452.5 yards a game) in Division I-AA last year, and second in the country in passing (372.2 ypg). Kempfert was a first team All-State selection at local Hellgate High School in 1991, when his team was “AA” runner-up. That season his team went 10-2, and he was voted his team’s “Outstanding Offensive Lineman.” His prep coach was Van Troxel. He was a two-time all-conference selection as a junior and senior, and he was an all-state academic pick in 1992. David has been a Big Sky all-academic pick the past two seasons, maintaining a 3.13 GPA in PrePhysical Therapy. His father, Al, is the Executive Director of UM’s Grizzly Athletic Association.

He started all 11 regular-season games, and had 40 tackles, fives stops for losses, and four sacks. In 1994, he started all 14 games for the 11-3 Grizzlies. In three playoff games he had 14 tackles, a forced fumble, and a fumble recovery. “Yohanse has really adjusted to the defensive end position and is very happy there now,” said Griz mentor Don Read. “H e’s really developed at end, considering he played a lot of linebacker for us his freshman year. He has worked hard and has made himself better and better. “He is now a very complete defensive end, in that he can both pass rush and play the run equally well,” Read said. “Yohanse is very physical, and he’s another one of our players who is highly motivated and really competes when the pressure is on. He is at his absolute best when the pressure is on. “He is really pointing to his senior year; he’s worked hard in the off-season; and he had a very solid spring,” Read said. “He’s going to have a great senior year.” Manzanarez had a career-high nine tackles twice: versus Hofstra in 1992 and at Montana State in 1993. His 1994 high in tackles was seven at Weber State, and he also had a career-best two stops for losses in that game at WSU. He had 40 stops as a sophomore and was Montana’s eighth leading tackier as a freshman with 51 tackles at linebacker. He was named the “co-Freshman of the Year” along with receiver Matt Wells. In his redshirt year in 1991, he was chosen Montana’s “Scout Team Player of the Year.” “Yo” was first team All-State his junior and senior seasons at Great Falls High School for head coach Dale Pohle.

BLAINE McELMURRY, 2V 6-1, 195, Junior Free Safety from Troy, Montana O n e of Montana’s most consistent players last season, McElmurry was second on the team with 72 tackles in the regular-season, and he had a team-leading four interceptions, which ranked him fourth (tie) in the Big Sky. Blaine had eight or more tackles in nine of 14 games last year. He started in all 14 contests, despite suffering a shoulder injury midway through the season. His regular-season high for tackles was nine last year against Carson-Newman and Eastern Washington. He had an all-time best 13 tackles in Montana’s semifinal loss at Youngstown State. His other double-figure game was 11 tackles in the first-round victory over Northern Iowa last year. McElmurry missed 1995 spring drills after undergoing shoulder surgery, but he is expected to be fully recovered by the start of this season. Last year McElmurry was named UM’s “co-Sophomore of the Year,” sharing the award with fellow honors candidates Mike Erhardt and David Kempfert. “Blaine has so many assets,” Read said. “Of course he was a quarterback in high school, which gives him a lot of extra knowledge because of the position he played. Plus his dad was his coach, so he was raised in an athletic family. “Mostly he’s got tremendous natural ability,” Read said. “He’s a legitimate 4.5 in the 40 guy, which is very fast.He’s comparable to any safety we’ve had, And we’ve had the likes of Tim Hauck (now with the Denver Broncos) here -- so that’ssaying a lot. “The thing Blaine does the best is covering the entire field from his free safety position,” Read said. “He has great range and vision. He reacts very well to the ball. He can support run, play the pass, and can get into man coverage. He is one of the brightest players on our team, and he is a good communicator with players and coaches. We’re going to have a tremendous season from Blaine this year. He should be at 100 percent in ’95 after playing hurt a lot of last season.” He earned 12 letters at Troy High School: four in football, basketball, and track. His 1991 team won the state “B” championship, going 12-0. His prep grid coach was his dad, Rich. McElmurry was All-State, all-conference, and team MVP in football as a junior and senior. He participated in Montana’s annual East-West Shrine Game. Blaine won state titles in the long and triple jumps as a senior, and had bests of 22-2 and 44-8. He was All-State in basketball as a junior and senior, and team captain as a senior. McElmurry is an honors student at UM and a two-time All-Big Sky academic team pick with a 3.52 GPA in Pre-Medicine. He was named to the All-District academic team last year. He was an academic All-American in high school with a perfect 4.0 GPA. His parents are Rich and Chris McElmurry of Troy. His sister, Catie, is a sophomore guard on the Lady Griz basketball team.

ERIC SIMONSON, 3V 6-5, 290, Senior Offensive Tackle from Plentywood, Montana
A
“S im o ” is starting for his third consecutive season. He also started a few games his freshman season. He is the only returning senior starter on Montana’s offensive line and was H hk . jf *2* ^ an honorable mention Big Sky all-conference pick last year. H hl | ■ Counting Montana’s four playoff games the past two seasons, Eric has started in 26 Wt «***' games in a row. Over the last two years he has consistently graded high in every contest. “Simonson is one of those athletes who you look at and you’re just not sure just how fast he can run or how strong he is,” said UM head coach Don Read.“H e’s kind of an easy-going, mild-mannered individual; but boy can he move his feet, and he is a very physical player. #■»> “He has excellent technique, and he’s always in the right position to do what he is supposed to do, almost all of the time,” Read said. “He works very hard and wants to be the best at his position. He plays with a lot of pride. “He was a weight room guy in the off-season and went from around310 or 315 pounds to under 300 pounds, and that’s the weight that we want him to play at,” Read said. “Now he still has plenty of size, as well as mobility. But, even more importantly, he has endurance to give him staying power for the entire game.” Simonson is one of the key reasons why the Grizzlies have ranked among the best offenses in Division I-AA the past few seasons. Last year Montana was fifth in the country in total offense (452.5 yards per game) and second in the nation in passing (372.3 ypg). “Eric likes to play against good players, and he plays well against good players,” Read said. “He practices hard and strives to be first in all of the drills. He is a very complete offensive lineman.” Last season he was the co-recipient of the Pat Norwood Award, given annually to Montana’s “Most Inspirational Player.”He shared the award with wide receiver Matt Wells. Simonson has excellent speed and strength, with bests of 5.1 in the 40 and he bench presses 225 pounds 23 times. He earned 10 letters at Plentywood HighSchool:four each in football and track, and two in basketball. His senior season he was first team All-Statein football as well as team captain. He was an all-conference selection in football as a sophomore, junior, and senior. His head coach was Ron Smith. He is a Business Administration major. Eric’s parents are William and Elenore Simonson of Plentywood. Birthdate: October 2, 1972.

MATT WELLS, 3V 5-7, 160, Senior Wide Receiver from Ashland, Oregon A ^ a t t begins the 1995 season sixth in career receiving yards at Montana with 1,725 yards. He needs 850 more yards to break the all-time career record of 2,574 yards, set by former receiver Scott Gumsey from 1991-94. Wells will be starting for his third straight season. He is UM’s leading returning receiver, and he was ranked third in that category last season. His 746 yards in 1994 is the 10th most in single-season history. “The fact that our school record is obtainable by Matt tells you a lot about what he has meant to our program the past three years,” Read said. “The thing about Matt Wells is that we have not thrown the ball to him as much as we should have over the course of his career,” Read said. “He has been surrounded by quality, capable receivers, and we’ve spread the ball around. Now in his senior year when he rises to the challenge of being one of the elite guys, I’m sure he’ll catch more balls than in past seasons. “We need to keep him healthy, but he is really capable,” Read said. “He is about as smart of a receiver as we’ve ever had during our time here. He reads coverage well, and he can find the soft spots in the zone. He’s got good speed and great quickness; and those two things make him a very fine receiver. Then, when you add his other attributes: his good hands and his concentration, he is destined, I’m sure, to have a super senior season.” Wells was the co-recipient of the Pat Norwood Award (Most Inspirational) with Eric Simonson last season. Wells also received the award in 1993. He had a career-high 12 receptions (for 123 yards) as a redshirt freshman at Kansas State in 1992. Those 12 catches is the second most (tie) in school history. His all-time best is 14 catches against Delaware in the 1993 first-round playoff game. He had career-bests of 182 yards for two touchdowns against Weber State in 1993 and also returned two punts for 103 yards in that game. His 87-yard touchdown catch vs. Weber tied a school record. He was the Big Sky’s “Player of the Week” with his 285 all-purpose yards in that game. Wells has eight punt returns for 150 yards (18.8-yard average) and no touchdowns in his career. Matt is also a quality student and has been a GTE second team Academic All-American the past two years, maintaining a 3.48 GPA in Business Administration. He has been a three-time all-league academic pick. A first team All-State player for coach Jim Nagel at Ashland High School, Wells had 123 catches for 2,488 yards and 31 touchdowns during his high school career. His 1989 team was the state champion with a 14-0 record, and Wells was team MVP and captain that season. In ’89 he had 69 catches for 1,373 yards and 16 touchdowns. He earned 10 letters in high school: three in football and basketball and four in track. He was team captain in basketball as a senior. Matt’s parents are Terrance and Georgia Wells of Ashland.

T h e Big Sky Athletic Conference is starting its 33rd season of operation with championships being conducted in 13 sports including men's and women's cross country, basketball, tennis, indoor track and field, outdoor track and field, women's volleyball, women's golf, and football. The Big Sky has eight member institutions and is affiliated with NCAA Division I in all sports except football, which is classified as Division I-AA. The 1995-96 athletic season in the Big Sky Conference is the seventh in which the league will sponsor championship competition in women's sports. On July 1, 1988, the Mountain West Athletic Conference merged with the Big Sky. The Mountain West conference had been in existence since 1982. The Big Sky Conferencecurrently consists of Boise State University, Boise, Idaho; Eastern Wash
Sky
Con
ington University, Cheney, Washington; Univer sity of Idaho, Moscow, Idaho; Idaho State Univer sity, Pocatello, Idaho; University of Montana, Missoula, Montana; Montana State University, Bozeman, Montana; Northern Arizona Universi ty, Flagstaff, Arizona; and Weber State University, Ogden, Utah. Formed in 1963, the Big Sky Conference consisted of charter members Idaho, Idaho State, Gonzaga University, Montana, Mon tana State and Weber State. Boise State and Northern Arizona joined the league July 1, 1970, in the Big Sky's first expan sion. Nevada was admitted to the league July 1, 1979, replacing former charter member Gonzaga. On July 1, 1987, Eastern Washington became the Big Sky's ninth member. When all nine members of the Mountain West Conference and Big Sky Conference were parallel the way was paved to merge the two leagues. This will be the last year in the league for Boise State and Idaho, as they will join the Big West Conference for the 1996-97 athletic season. However, Portland State will join the Big Sky next season, and other schools are also under consid eration. (Nevada left the league in 1992). The league office has been moved to Ogden, Utah. The office had formally been located in Boise, Idaho. The Big Sky Conference has member institu tions in six states and covers more than 220,000 square miles (or almost 1 /1 2th the total square miles in the contintental United States). The six states included in the Big Sky Conference (Ari zona, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, Utah and Wash ington) span from the Canadian to Mexican bor
ders. The Big Sky is one of two major conferences located in the Rocky Mountain region. The name BIG SKY originated in a novel authored in 1947, by the late A. B. (Bud) Guthrie, of Great Falls, Montana, entitled THE BIG SKY. Jack Hollowell, former Montana Advertising Di rector, promoted the Big Sky theme for the Trea sure State.

G rizzly E a c h year eight outstanding University of Montana football players are recipients of awards. The Terry Dillon Award, honoring the outstanding back or receiver, 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 out standing lineman and was established by the citizens of Ronan, Montana. The Golden Helmet Award honors the hardest hitter on the team. It was set up on a nationwide basis by the CocaCola 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 teams’ outstanding defensive lineman. The Steve Carlson award is given to the teams’ most valuable player in memory of the former Grizzly football player who died in 1977. Pat Norwood was a four year starter at offensive tackle for the Grizzlies (1978-82) from Billings, who died of cancer in 1983. This award is given to the Most Inspirational Player, who often times had to overcome an injury. The Tony Barbour award is given in memory of a Loyal Grizzly Fan. It is presented annually to a UM player, “who best exemplifies outstanding practice habits and makes an unselfish contribution to the betterment of the Grizzly Football Team. Enthusiasm, dedication and commitment are the key factors sought in the person receiving this award.” The Outstanding Linebacker award was inaugurated in 1990, and is given by an anonymous donor.

cylinders against the Cossacks, especially on offense, but Montana started the 1994 season with a convincing 417 victory. Junior quarterback Dave Dickenson completed 13-of22 Passes for 271 yards in two quarters. Senior Shalon Baker had two catches for 111 yards and returned four punts for 87 yards. “I’m very happy with the big picture, but we’ve got to clean up the little things,” was how head coach Don Read described his seventh straight opening-season victory at home since taking over the UM program in 1986. Senior comerback Keith Burke, a 1994 honors can didate and honorable mention All-Big Sky selection last season, had the game’s only interception. Sophomore free safety Blaine McElmurry had a game-high eight tackles in his first start. Sophomore kicker Andy Larson booted three 42-yard field goals,but one was nullified because of a UM penalty. Montana’s defense allowed just 224 total yards, and made some big plays to keep the Cossacks at bay. Perhaps the biggest defensive stop was Burke’s intercep tion. Burke had to leap high in front of the Sonoma receiver for the pick.

GAME NOTES: The Grizzlies entered the game ranked fourth in Division I-AA, while the CarsonNewman College Eagles were ranked 10th in Division II. UM's passing game worked to near-perfection, racking up 612 total yards -- just 37 short of a school record. Dickenson picked apart the Carson-Newman de fense, scoring on all eight of his possessions, and was 22-of-30-0 for 398 yards and four TDs in two quar ters. All of the scoring was accomplished early, as the Grizzlies’ final TD made it 48-14, on a 25-yard hookup from Dickenson to Scott Gurnsey early in the third quarter. Baker caught seven passes for 130 yards. Boddie rushed for 61 yards and two touchdowns, had a 74yard kickoff return, and one catch for 20 yards. Dickenson was named the Big Sky-Cenex Land O’Lakes Player of the Week on offense, sharing the award with NAU signal-caller Jeff Lewis. It was Dickenson’s fourth player of the week award in the last two seasons.

GAME NOTES: Montana capitalized on big plays to start the Big Sky Conference season with a victory. Dickenson passed for 424 yards and four touch downs, and the Grizzly defense scored twice. There were 1,062 total yards in the game, 603 of them by the Eagles. However, EWU lost two fumbles and QB Todd Bemett, who passed for a school-record 486 yards, was picked off three times. Montana scored 42 of its 49 points in the second and third quarters. For the fifth time in his career, Dickenson exceeded 400 yards passing. A Dickenson pass was intercepted early in the second quarter, break ing a string of 202 passes in which he had not been picked off.

Hess: 5/50/0; Jesus Reyes: 5-46/0. GAME NOTES: Montana’s 19th victory in its last 21
games did not come easy. The Griz defense held UNT to 315 total yards -- and the Eagles had just 86 yards rushing on 29 attempts. It was a real “gut check” kind of game for Montana, which had won its previous three-games by 34, 34, and 20 points. Montana found itself down 17-7 in the third quarter and in quite a dogfight with the tenacious-hitting Eagles. The 21 points was Montana’s lowest score since it closed out the 1992 season with a 21-14 win at Idaho State. UM had scored 35 or more points in its previous 12 games ina-row, and had 40-plus in seven of those contests. The wind was a major factor. Only one touchdown was scored against the wind: the game-winner, from Dickenson to Boddie. Mitch Maher, the pre-season All-Southland Confer ence quarterback, was 20 of 33-1 for 229 yards and a pair of TDs. Dickenson, who went over the 5,000-yard passing mark faster than any other Griz quarterback, now has 5,223 passing yards. Receiver Shalon Baker had just 16 receiving yards, but that moved him up to second on UM’s career list, giving him 1,979 yards. He passed Mike Trevathan, who had 1,969 yards from 1987-90.
GAME NOTES: The third-ranked Grizzlies started out slow, but had their first shutout since a 41-0 blanking of Chico State in 1992. Dickenson had a career-tying four touchdown passes in just 2 1 /2 quarters of work. Senior defensive tackle Jay Turner had the best game of his career with career and game-highs of 10 tackles and 3 1 /2 sacks for losses of 26 yards, and added a tackle for a loss. His sack total was the most by a Griz player in the past 17 seasons. Montana improved its record to 5-0 - its best start since the 1970 season, in which the Griz went 10-0 in the regular-season for the second year in a row. Since those ’69 and ’70 teams, UM has had 4-0 starts in 1983 and 1988. UM rushed for a season-best 154 yards on 37 carries. And 85 of those rushing yards were by junior halfback Scott Spraggins, who also had a career-long 55-yard touchdown jaunt. The following week, UM moved up to second in the rankings after No. 2 McNeese State lost (28-8) to fifthranked Youngstown State.

GAME NOTES: It was a double feature entertain m ent special as the “Kelly Stensrud Show ” and the “Big-Play Griz Defense Show ” debuted in front of a rockin’-and-rollin’ Homecoming crowd of 15,466. It was UM’s 15th win in a row in the regular season, and the Grizzlies’ 13th straight Big Sky Conference victory. The victory assured ninth-year head coach Don Read and the Grizzlies of their ninth straight winning season. Read has never had a losing season at Montana, taking the helm in 1986. Freshm an safety Remington continued his stellar special team s play, blocking a 41-yard field goal attem pt by NAU’s Kevin O ’Leary. Halfback Kelly Stensrud scored his career-best third touchdown on a 12-yard pass from Dickenson late in the game. Senior linebacker Kurt Schilling had a career-high 15 tackles and was named the league's player of the week on defense.

20-7. An emotional halftime talk by head coach Don Read and an improving defense held the Wildcats score less in the second half. Montana (7-0) moved from second in the nation to No. 1, as previously top-ranked Marshall fell 24-14 at Appa lachian State. It was the first time in school history a Grizzly team was ranked first. “Coach Read gave us a heck of a good talk during halftime, ” said senior cornerback Acen Chiles. “He said, ‘We’ve got a dream, we’ve got a goal. Who is someone to take that away from us?”’ Baker broke records for career reception yards and career receptions on back-to-back catches in the third quarter. Downs had one of his best games ever with 12 tackles, two sacks, and a pass deflection, while Turner added seven tackles and three sacks. WSU strong safety Nick McDaniel broke Dickenson’s string of 131 passes without an interception early in the second quarter. The come-from-behind victory would set up one of the premier matchups in Big Sky Conference history the following week, as No. 1 and undefeated Montana would host No. 3 and undefeated Idaho.

GAME NOTES: M ontana’s first No. 1 ranking in school history held up for another week, as UM handed third-ranked Idaho its first loss of the season. It was R ead’s 100th gam e at M ontana, and the Grizzlies’ fourth straight victory over the Vandals the longest win streak over Idaho since the series began in 1903. Dickenson passed for 5 1 0 yards, missing by two yards the school record he set in UM's 1993 win at Idaho. His 38 com pletions broke a UM m ark of 36 set by Brent Pease in 1986, and tied by Brad Lebo in 1991. On his second touchdow n pass Dickenson be cam e M ontana’s all-time touchdow n passing leader, breaking Grady B ennett’s school record of 55. Dickenson finished the day with three TD throws, giving him 57 in his career. Stensrud rushed for two touchdow ns, had a carry for a two-point conversion, and also had seven receptions.
56
GAME NOTES: No. 1-ranked Montana was roughed up by the Broncos. UM had won 17 straight regularseason games, dating back to 1993. Dickenson was sacked 11 times, losing 73 yards, and was knocked out of the game with eight minutes left. Since Dickenson took over at UM early in the 1993 season, no one had held the Griz to under 20 points. Those who were closest were North Texas (21) in 1994 and Idaho State (28) in 1993. With the loss, BSU tied Montana and Idaho at the top of the conference standings at 4-1. “They got momentum going, so we played into their game plan instead of our game plan,” said coach Read. “The reason they’ve won, in my opinion, is that they get people out of their rhythm, which prevents opponents from doing what they normally like to do.” The Grizzly offense and Dickenson had trouble hear ing due to the steady noise from the partisan crowd of 22,630. The result was several procedure and delay of game penalties. "What they did was they were relentless and they didn’t quit and they deserved to win,” said UM senior offensive tackle Scott Gragg.

GAME NOTES: Head coach Don Read was hoping his team could rebound, however, back-to-back Big Sky Conference championship aspirations were dashed in Pocatello. Fifth-ranked Montana lost in the Gem State for the second consecutive week, ending a 10-game winning streak over ISU in Read’s first loss to the Bengals. Wilberger, subbing for an injured Dickenson, passed for nearly 400 yards. He was 32-of-51 for 394 yards and a TD, but his sole interception came with 1 :34 left, after UM had advanced the ball to the ISU 26-yard line. Sophomore halfback Alfredo Anderson rushed for 115 yards and two scores in the first half, but missed most of the second stanza with an ankle injury. In 1993, Anderson rushed for 162 yards against UM. “It’s just disappointing,” said senior receiver Shalon Baker, who rushed for a touchdown and also scored on a 21-yard pass from Wilberger. “I think our whole team felt like we should have had the victory.” Montana would have had a shot at the crown with a Boise State loss at Eastern Washington, but the Bron cos prevailed 16-13. "We played as hard today as we have in a long time," Read continued. "I don't fault the kids at all. I'm happy they came to play. But, we didn't make enough big plays to win."

GAME NOTES: The STREAK continued as the Griz won their ninth straight game over the Bobcats. It was the biggest margin of victory since 1987, when the Grizzlies beat the Cats 55-7 in Bozeman. Wilberger and the Griz offense racked up a seasonhigh 613 yards. Another BIG part of the win was that it earned Montana a berth in the NCAA Division I-AA national playoffs. Gurnsey had a career-high 190 receiving yards on eight catches and became UM’s all-time leader (2,574 yards). A four-year starter at UM, Baker ended up second in receiving yards with 2,561, but set records with 182 catches and 26 touchdown receptions. Boddie rushed for a career-high 143 yards on just 11 carries. The Grizzlies proved their 1994 slogan right: “No Place Like Home.” In seven home games UM has outscored its opponents 318 to 115, going 7-0.

GAME NOTES: The return of Dickenson and some key turnovers highlighted this hard-fought, 23-20 victory. It was the Grizzlies first win in the Division I-AA playoffs since the 1989 season. . Despite an obvious limp and limited mobility, Dickenson managed to complete 38-of-50 passes for 436 yards and two touchdowns. Northern Iowa had a chance to tie the game and maybe put the game in overtime with 1:34 left, but, a 36-yard field goal attem pt was wide right. Even after the missed field goal, UNI had a chance, but, outside linebacker Andre Allen was called for a late hit on Dickenson, giving M ontana a crucial first down. M ontana once again had three players with m ore than 100 receiving yards each. The leader was Baker who had 145 yeards on eight catches and an 18-yard TD. Erhardt had career-highs of 10 grabs for 110 yards, and the game-winner, while Gurnsey had nine grabs for 104 yards. Both Gumsey and Wells left the game with injuries, but soon returned to action. Right after the game Montana learned it would play McNeese State, a 38-21 first round winner at hom e over fellow Big Sky m em ber Idaho.

GAME NOTES: Larson booted a 37-yard field goal with eight seconds left in the game for UM's dramatic win, and Montana advanced to Division I-AA’s semifinals for the second time in school history. UM played at Georgia Southern in the 1989 semifinal game. UM led 27-7 starting the fourth quarter, but MSU quarterback Kerry Joseph threw two late touchdown passes sandwiched between a oneyard TD run by halfback Henry Fields, and MSU led 28-27. Montana took over on its own 13-yard line, with 41 seconds left in the game, and Wilberger con nected on all three of his pass attempts. Wilberger's last two completions were to Baker. Twice in the drive Wilberger spiked the ball into the ground, stopping the clock. Wilberger, who replaced Dickenson after he re injured his right ankle and leg, was 38-of-67-l for 476 yards and three TDs. He was flawless in the final drive, moving the ball 67 yards in 33 seconds.
GAME NOTES: The Penguin defense held the Griz zlies to just 247 total yards, and their lowest point (9) output of the season. The eighth-ranked Grizzlies, ended the season 11-3. The Penguins went ahead 21-0 in the third quarter, scoring on a diving catch by senior Trent Boykin in the left comer of the end zone. The Griz didn’t die however, marching 95 yards on 16 plays, as Erhardt was on the receiving end of a 21yard touchdown pass from Wilberger. Wilberger, who had lead the Grizzlies to a miraculous 30-28 come-from-behind win over McNeese State the previous week, was starting once again for Dickenson, who was out with ankle and leg injuries. It was the final college game for 17 Montana seniors, who should be able to take some consolation in the fact that they have won 34 games the past four seasons. Senior offensive tackle Scott Gragg, a selection for the Senior Bowl and the East-West Shrine Game, summed it up best. “It’s been a fun trip, it’s just too bad it had to end here,” Gragg said. “We’ll always be Grizzlies.” Youngstown went on to defeat Boise State, 28-14, to win its second straight Division I-AA NCAA National Championship.
