FORT HAYS STATE UNIVERSITY About Fort Hays State University
2019 FORT HAYS STATE FOOTBALL
Founded in 1902 on the plains of Western Kansas, Fort Hays State University is the second youngest of the six state universities. FHSU celebrated its centennial in 2002. From a humble but exciting beginning, when just two faculty members and a 19-course curriculum greeted 34 students, our university has grown to a faculty over 400, a support staff of more than 500 and a student body over 14,000. The university now offers hundreds of courses in each of its four main colleges — Education, Arts and Sciences, Business and Leadership, and Health and Life Sciences — and the Graduate School. The FHSU Virtual College provides many of the courses through various media to sites across Kansas and beyond. FHSU is governed by a Board of Regents appointed by the governor of the state of Kansas. FHSU is located in Hays, the largest city in northwest Kansas. Hays began as a wild frontier town and has grown into a progressive community of about 20,000 people. The old and new blend beautifully to form a city that is small enough to be comfortable yet large enough to provide abundant cultural, commercial and entertainment opportunities. In 1996, Hays was recognized as an All-America City. The university sits on a campus of 4,160 acres of land that once was part of the historic Fort Hays frontier military post, and it recently expanded to include the relocated Sternberg Museum of Natural History on a site adjacent to Interstate 70 in northeast Hays. Big Creek, with its shady, grassy banks, meanders through the main campus, providing a tranquil learning atmosphere and serving as a natural laboratory for students in the biological sciences. With its stately limestone buildings and profuse flowers, trees and shrubs, our campus has often been called the prettiest in Kansas. FHSU is academically superior to many comparable universities, offers students an electronic learning and living environment, and is richly endowed by heritage and tradition. Students come to our university for a multitude of reasons, but surveys show that their overwhelming reason is “the university’s reputation for academic excellence and its caring faculty.” The university supports one of the most extensive and successful intercollegiate sports programs of any comparably sized college or university in America, boasting numerous All-American athletes and national championships. More than 400 athletes compete annually in nine men’s and nine women’s sports. FHSU is a member of the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association, which comprises 14 schools from the states of Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma and Nebraska. The university also serves as the cultural center of western Kansas, featuring fine arts exhibitions, performing arts presentations by faculty, students and traveling professional troupes, and a Presidential Lecture Series.

FORT HAYS STATE ATHLETIC FACILITIES #DEFENDTHEFORT
Lewis Field Stadium
LEWIS FIELD STADIUM is the 6,362-seat home of the Fort Hays State University football team. The venue has been home to the Tigers for over 80 years, but has seen several renovations throughout its history. Lewis Field was constructed in 1936 on what was formerly the Golden Belt Fairgrounds, named in honor of William Alexander Lewis, president of Fort Hays State University from 1913 to 1933. The field is located beside a spacious tree-lined drive and is just a short walk from the campus residence halls and downtown business district. The stadium saw several changes prior to the start of the 2013 season. A brand new artificial playing surface was installed, which plays similar to natural grass. A new look for the field included the FHSU Tiger logo at the 50-yardline and black endzones with gold lettering that reads “Fort Hays” in the north endzone and “Tigers” in the south endzone. Visible just beyond the southeast wall of the stadium is the Schmidt-Bickle Indoor Training Facility, opened in 2013, which features a 60-yard indoor field, a weight room and meeting rooms for the players. In the summer of 2017, over 2,000 new black folding seats replaced old chair back seats and a majority of the bench seating previously on the west side of the stadium, while stairwells widened and handrails were installed. Following the 2017 season, a new video/scoreboard was installed at the north end of the stadium. The board measures over 60 feet wide and 45 feet tall and will be ready for use going into the 2018 season. Prior to the 2003 season, a new lighting system was installed to eliminated shadows on the playing surface. The native limestone structure around the outside of the stadium was refurbished to its natural state in 1993 when 57 years of weathering was sandblasted away. Dressing rooms, concession areas, athletic training facilities, restrooms and equipment storage rooms are located under the grandstands. A complete remodel of the Tiger locker room was completed prior to the 2006 season with carpet flooring and individual lockers for 90 players.
Schmidt-Bickle Indoor Training Facility

The multi-million dollar SCHMIDT-BICKLE INDOOR TRAINING FACILITY opened in August of 2013. The facility is located just beyond the southeast wall of Lewis Field Stadium on the campus of Fort Hays State University. The 50,400-square foot facility features a 65-yard artificial turf practice field, batting cages, 70-yard three-lane synthetic track with jump pits, 5,000-square foot weight room, storage areas for multiple sports, and a team meeting room. The facility was named for the families of Bob and Pat Schmidt and Don and Chris Bickle, who provided major gifts to the university to help fund the construction of the facility. Construction began in June of 2012 and took just over a year to complete. The facility is primarily used by Fort Hays State’s outdoor sports programs.

FORT HAYS STATE ATHLETIC FACILITIES Gross Memorial Coliseum
2019 FORT HAYS STATE FOOTBALL
GROSS MEMORIAL COLISEUM is the home of Fort Hays State men’s and women’s basketball, volleyball, wrestling, and indoor track and field. The 6,814-seat arena was finished in August of 1973 at a cost of seven million dollars. The Tigers made the move across campus from Sheridan Coliseum, which seated 2,000. Paul “Busch” Gross is the namesake of the Coliseum. Gross coached basketball at FHSU from 1930 to 1946 and also served as the athletic director at Fort Hays State for several years. In 2017, Gross Memorial Coliseum was selected as one of the Five Best Arenas in D2 Basketball by Hero Sports. The installment of a new video board occurred in the summer of 2017. The new board replaced the old scoreboard above center court that was in operation nearly 20 years. The new board features a four-sided, high definition, full-color LED display, with all four screens measuring nearly 12 feet wide by seven feet tall. Just below is a video ring that is two feet tall with an 11-foot diameter. The underside of the ring features the Tiger logo facing the playing floor. New scoreboards at each end of the arena were also installed in place of old scoreboards. The volleyball, wrestling, and softball programs all received upgrades to locker rooms inside the coliseum as well. Major renovations took place in the coliseum in the summer of 2011 with the installation of a completely new playing surface and indoor track, and remodeled locker rooms for the men’s and women’s basketball teams. On the new playing surface, a larger Tiger logo was painted around the mid-court circle. In the summer of 2008, changes were made with the addition of chairback seating on the lower level of the coliseum. Approximately 650 chairback seats were installed along the sidelines of the court. Gross Memorial Coliseum is a multipurpose facility. It is also home to the KSHSAA 1A State Basketball Tournament, the KSHSAA 3-2-1A State Wrestling Championships, and the KSHSAA 1A State Volleyball Championships. The coliseum houses the FHSU Athletic Department, a large athletic training room, locker rooms, concession stands, a press box and the Field Weight Room.

FHSU Soccer Stadium at Bickle-Schmidt Sports Complex The FHSU SOCCER STADIUM opened for play in the fall of 2011, the inaugural season of Fort Hays State men’s and women’s soccer. The Tigers home stadium is part of the Bickle-Schmidt Sports Complex which also features eight baseball/softball fields and eight football/soccer fields. The stadium is a state of the art soccer-specific complex with a synthetic turf playing surface and lighting that meets NCAA regulations for holding night contests. Other features include a Daktronics scoreboard with LED lighting just beyond the south end of the playing field, bleachers seating 500-plus fans, and a two-level press box. The stadium also has both men’s and women’s locker rooms and a concessions area. This brand new facility sits on 120 acres of ground and is located just northwest of Gross Memorial Coliseum on the western edge of Hays at the intersection of Old Highway 40 and the Highway 183 bypass.
FORT HAYS STATE ATHLETIC FACILITIES LARKS PARK is home to the Fort Hays State University baseball team. The park is owned by the city of Hays but operated by the FHSU Athletic Department. The athletic department has a ten-year lease on the property. Larks Park was built in 1940 as part of a Work Projects Administration project. It is a historic venue as the oldest park within the state of Kansas. Continued renovations over past years have maintained the facility as one of the finest in the state. Larks Park is located at Fourth and Main in Hays. The park features a limestone frame with locker rooms, restrooms, concession facilities, and seating for 1,200 Tiger fans. A record 1,868 fans turned out on April 8, 2005, to watch the Tigers take on Mesa State. Lights were installed in 2000 to allow night games at the park. A new field turf infield playing surface was installed in the spring of 2013. The entire infield, including dugouts, mound, base cutouts, and home plate area, is now field turf instead of dirt. The artificial infield is necessary due to the numerous games that are played in the park each year. The outfield is made of bluegrass sod. Park dimensions are 322 feet down the left field line, 319 feet down the right field line, 349 feet to the power alleys and 405 feet to center field. Larks Park also received several major renovations in 2008. A new eight-foot wooden fence replaced the old chainlink outfield fence and the foul poles were also replaced. Billboards of Tiger supporters line the new outfield fence. Along foul territory is now a four-foot wooden fence. The bullpens received a facelift as they are now enclosed with the same fencing that surrounds the field. A new scoreboard with LED lighting was placed above the right field fence. Most recently in the spring of 2010, the Tiger locker room, bathrooms, and training facility underneath the grandstand were remodeled.

2019 FORT HAYS STATE FOOTBALL
TIGER STADIUM is home to the Fort Hays State University softball team. Ground breaking for the stadium occurred in January of 1998 and was ready for action by February of 1999. Tiger Stadium is on the south side of Gross Memorial Coliseum/Cunningham Hall. The park features concession facilities and seating for 500 Tiger fans. Both dugouts were built above ground with a six foot high protection fence in front. A large press box sits behind the stands which houses the public address announcer, scoreboard operator, official scorer, and working media. Park dimensions are 200 feet down the left and right field lines, 210 feet to the power alleys and 220 feet to center field. The outfield fence stands eight feet high. Prior to the 2012 season, the stadium received a major facelift as the wooden outfield fence was painted black with a gold distance marks and trim on top of the fence. The tops of the dugouts were also painted black, along with the backstop behind home plate. More renovations took place in the fall of 2013, when stadium style seating was added behind home plate thanks to a major donation from Eugene and Jo Ann Fleharty. Upgrades to the park were made before the 2007 season with the installation of an Oklahoma red clay infield surface. The surface is excellent for the Kansas wind and has a high moisture content ratio, providing the ability to withstand spring storms, particularly in the absence of field tarp. Drought resistant fescue grass is the surface in the outfield and foul territory. In the summer of 2007, a new net-style backstop replaced the old chain link backstop behind home plate. In 2008, a new scoreboard with LED lighting was installed beyond the outfield wall. Behind the center field portion of the fence sits three flagpoles which hold the American, State of Kansas and FHSU flags. The chainlink fence alongside foul territory contains billboards of Tiger supporters. The stadium also features two bullpens and two batting tunnels. They are located outside the playing area down the right and left field lines. Lights were installed in the summer of 2003 to aid in hosting tournaments and night contests. The lights are positioned behind each dugout and to each side of right and left field.

FHSU Track & Field Facility The FHSU Track and Field Facility consists of a nine-lane, 400-meter, all-weather running track and a full complement of field event areas. The current site was chosen more than two years ago and construction of the $3.28 million facility began in April of 2016. The complex includes a press box and fixed bleacher seating for 500 spectators on the east side. Other structures provide field equipment storage, a training room, a meeting room, and public restrooms. Construction completed in December of 2016. Installation of a new timing and results board occurred in August of 2017 and future upgrades include the addition of lights to the facility as funding becomes available. The track at the facility is named for Alex Francis, the highly successful man who coached track and field and cross country at Fort Hays State University from 1946 until his retirement in 1980. The track at Lewis Field Stadium was previously named after Coach Francis and his name and legacy has been carried forward to Fort Hays State’s current track. His cross country teams won four national titles (1963, 1965, 1968, 1969) and finished national runner-up four times. He also guided cross country teams to 11 conference titles. His track and field squads captured 17 conference titles and overall he guided 139 Tiger athletes to All-America status in cross country and track and field combined.

CHRIS BROWN - HEAD COACH

Chris Brown enters his ninth season as head coach at Fort Hays State in 2019. He is the all-time coaching wins leader in program history, now with a record of 58-34. In his eight years guiding the program, Brown has built the Tigers into a perennial contender for the NCAA postseason, guiding the program to the playoffs in each of the last two years. The Tigers have made appearances in postseason games in each of the last four years, which includes a pair of appearances in bowl games. The program has a record of 36-12 over the last four seasons, winning at least eight games each year. Brown is the two-time reigning MIAA Coach of the Year, earning the honor in both 2017 and 2018. In 2017, Brown led the program to its first-ever Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association Championship and first appearance in the NCAA Division II Playoffs since 1995. By leading the Tigers to their most successful season in program history with a record of 11-1, including an undefeated 11-0 mark in the regular season, Brown earned 2017 MIAA Coach of the Year and Don Hansen Football Committee Super Region 3 Coach of the Year honors. The Tigers backed that with another MIAA Championship in 2018, going 9-2 in the regular season to net Brown a second-straight MIAA Coach of the Year honor. The team finished at 9-3 after falling in the opening round of the NCAA Playoffs, but it was the first time the program reached the NCAA Playoffs in back-to-back seasons. Fort Hays State has played postseason games four straight years (2015-2018) under Brown’s guidance. Going 11-0 in 2017 during the regular season and setting a new school record for wins in a season to win a conference title, the Tigers earned the No. 1 seed in Super Region 3 of the NCAA Playoffs. Fort Hays State hosted Ferris State (Mich.) in the Super Region Semifinals and finished the year 11-1, but ended a 22-year absence from the playoffs in the process. The conference title was also the program’s first since 1995. The following year in 2018, FHSU went 9-2 in the regular season for its second-straight conference championship and finished at 9-3 after facing University of Indianapolis in Super Region 3 of the NCAA Playoffs. In 2016, Fort Hays State claimed its first-ever postseason game win by defeating Eastern New Mexico in the Heart of Texas Bowl to finish 8-4 overall. The 2015 team also finished 8-4 overall, making an appearance in the Mineral Water Bowl against University of Minnesota-Duluth. The Tigers have shown steady progress under Brown, with improvement in each of his seasons at the helm. After finishing with a 4-7 mark in his first year (2011), the Tigers finished 5-6 in 2012, 6-5 in 2013, and 7-4 in 2014. In 2015, the Tigers went 8-4 overall with an appearance in the Mineral Water Bowl, but in 2016 went 8-4 again and won the Heart of Texas Bowl. The program saw a huge leap in 2017 with an overall record of 11-1, setting the new school record for wins in a season by three. The Tigers have now enjoyed six consecutive winning seasons, their longest streak since joining NCAA Division II. The Tigers have accomplished that feat as members of the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association, arguably the nation’s premier Division II football conference that has produced the national champion five of the last 10 years. FHSU joined the conference in 2006. Fort Hays State enjoyed its most All-MIAA selections under Brown in 2017 with 21. Brown has now coached 107 All-MIAA selections at Fort Hays State, including 23 first-team selections. Fort Hays State boasted the MIAA Defensive Player of the Year in each of the last three seasons, Sie Doe, Jr. in 2016, Nathan Shepherd in 2017, and Jose Delgado in 2018. The New York Jets selected Shepherd in the third round of the 2018 NFL Draft, the first NCAA Division II player selected in the draft. Shepherd became Fort Hays State’s first player taken in the NFL Draft since 1987. Brown has coached 25 All-Americans at FHSU. Nine of the 25 have received first team honors, which includes Alex Whitehill (linebacker) and Ethan Kosjer (punter) in 2011, Brock Long (linebacker) in 2015, Sie Doe, Jr. (defensive lineman) and Raheeme Dumas (defensive back) in 2016, and Nathan Shepherd (defensive lineman) and Travis Talley (offensive lineman) in 2017, and Jose Delgado (linebacker) and Dante Brown (kicker) in 2018. Fort Hays State enjoyed eight All-America selections in 2017, the most for a season in the program’s history. Doe was the D2CCA Super Region 3 Defensive Player of the Year, the first in program history, in 2016. Two years later in 2018, Jose Delgado earned the same honor. Whitehill is one of four players to earn CoSIDA Academic All-America honors in Brown’s tenure. Defensive lineman Jesse Trent was a three-time Academic All-America selection from 2012-14, defensive back Doyin Jibowu earned the honor in 2017, and defensive back Connor Shedeed earned the honor in 2018. Brown also coached four players at FHSU that have signed with NFL teams, the most recent being Doyin Jibowu in 2019 with the Chicago Bears as an undrafted free agent. The New York Jets selected Nathan Shepherd in the third round of the 2018 NFL Draft and he recorded 15 tackles in his rookie season. Safety Nathan Lindsey (Detroit Lions) and wide receiver Ed Williams (Green Bay Packers) also signed with NFL teams in 2015 as undrafted free agents. Williams spent two seasons with the Packers. Brown came to Fort Hays State from Washburn University, where he served as the defensive coordinator and defensive secondary coach from 2002-2010 and assistant head coach in 2010. Brown helped Washburn compile a 62-41 record in his nine-year span with the program, which included two NCAA playoff appearances and two bowl wins. In his time at Washburn, Brown coached the 2009 and 2006 MIAA Most Valuable Defensive Players and guided two players selected in the NFL Draft (defensive tackle Trey Lewis-6th round 2007, and cornerback Cary Williams-7th round 2008). Brown also coached six All-Americans, 20 all-region and 41 All-MIAA selections at Washburn. His defense led the MIAA in turnovers gained in three of his final four seasons there, including a school record-tying 23 interceptions in 2007. Brown joined the Washburn coaching staff after spending three years as the secondary coach at Liberal (Kan.) High School where he helped the team to a mark of 37-5 in his time. A native of Liberal, Kansas, Brown is a 1996 graduate of Pittsburg State University where he recorded 470 tackles in 43 starts in his career at free safety. He is one of only three Gorillas to earn All-American honors three times. He was a unanimous All-American First Team selection his senior season and was named the CNN Division II National Player of the Year in 1995. He was also named to the NCAA Quarter Century Team for all players from 1975 to 1999 at free safety. He had a record 21 tackles in the NCAA Division II National Championship as a freshman against Jacksonville State. Brown was inducted into the Pittsburg State Athletic Hall of Fame in 2006 and the MIAA Hall of Fame in 2015. He and his wife, Daphne, have two sons, Hunter and Hayden.

McCray’s receivers have also left their mark on the Fort Hays State record book. In 2010, Murdock set the single-season record for receiving yards with 1,290 on 60 receptions. His average of 21.5 yards per catch tied for the highest in a single season in FHSU history. In just two seasons under McCray’s tutelage, Murdock amassed 1,987 receiving yards, good for seventh in the school’s history, and 20 touchdowns, which ranks third all-time. Keaton Callins posted the third-most receiving touchdowns in a season at FHSU with 11 in 2013.

FORT HAYS STATE FOOTBALL 2019 Back-To-Back MIAA Champion Tigers aim for third-straight NCAA Playoff appearance
U F C P O Rv M Rc H
The end of the 2018 Fort Hays State Football season had a repeat feel in comparison to the 2017 season. The Tigers repeated as MIAA Champions in 2018. A win at Northwest Missouri State for a second-straight year in Week 10 kept Fort Hays State's conference title and playoff hopes alive. The Tigers sealed their second-straight conference crown and trip to the NCAA Playoffs in the final week of the regular season with a resounding 58-0 win over Northeastern State. They shared the conference title with Northwest Missouri State, each at 9-2, though the Tigers won the conference title outright in 2017 at 11-0. Both served as conference representatives in the NCAA Playoffs for a second-straight year. However, the Tigers had a bitter taste left in their mouths after opening the playoffs with a loss for the second-straight year. The end of the 2018 season will give the Tigers motivation to find their elusive first win in the NCAA Playoffs since joining NCAA Division II when they enter the 2019 season. In a quest to claim a third-straight MIAA title and NCAA Playoff appearance, the Tigers will have a lot of firepower back on offense. They return nine of 11 starters on offense, led by All-MIAA performers Harley Hazlett, Layne Bieberle, Matt Wendelberger, Charles Tigner, and Amari Angram-Boldin. The first four of that group claimed all-conference honors in multiple years and should give sophomore quarterback Chance Fuller a talented arsenal for distributing the ball. The defense, however, will have a lot of new faces in starting roles and how good the defense will be in 2019 may be one of the biggest question marks going into the season. The four returning starters on the defensive side of the ball are linebacker Kolt Trachsel, defensive back Tanner Hoekman, and defensive linemen Sterling Swopes and Sheldon Schmidt. The Tigers have several players that have seen action on the field in reserve roles during the team's back-to-back conference championships, but now is their time to step in and fill the holes left by several multi-year starters. One valuable asset the Tigers have returning on special teams is Dante Brown, the 2018 Don Hansen Football Committee Division II Special Teams Player of the Year. He led all NCAA levels in field goals per game last year (2.33). His 28 field goals and 41.4-yard punting average last year landed him All-MIAA First team honors as both a kicker and punter. He is the lone returning All-America selection out of four for the Tigers from last year. Fort Hays State steadily pushed its way to the top of the MIAA, now entering its ninth season under head coach Chris Brown. After going 4-7 in Brown's first year (2011), the Tigers saw a one-win improvement the next four years culminating in back-to-back bowl game appearances. Reaching the playoffs the last two seasons, the Tigers have put together a stellar 20-4 record. FHSU now has six consecutive winning seasons, a record for the program's NCAA Division II history, but also matches the all-time program record of six in a row accomplished twice (1913-1918 and 1933-1938).

2019 OUTLOOK TIGER OFFENSE Quarterbacks Jacob Mezera set new Fort Hays State career passing records for yards, completions, and touchdowns in 2018, finishing his career as one of the best quarterbacks in program history. Though the Tigers lost the three-time All-MIAA quarterback, they are still in good shape at the quarterback position with Chance Fuller entering just his sophomore season. Fuller saw more and more reps at quarterback in the second half of the 2018 season, eventually starting two of the final three games of the year for FHSU. Fuller threw for 1,185 yards with seven touchdowns, completing 65.2 percent of his attempts for the season (92-of-141). His 240-yard passing performance in a 17-16 win at Northwest Missouri State in Week 10 helped the Tigers go on to clinch a share of the MIAA Championship the following week. Voshon Waiters and Trey McJunkin are proven junior college quarterbacks that should give the Tigers insurance behind Fuller. During his freshman year at ASA College in Miami, Waiters threw for 1,380 yards, while rushing 118 yards. A year later, he threw for 472 yards in four games. McJunkin is a transfer from Western Illinois University, where he redshirted last year. Prior to that he had a big freshman year at Fresno City College in California, throwing for 2,472 yards in 2017. Running Backs The Tigers have a pair of All-MIAA running backs returning this year, both going into their senior year. Charles Tigner is a two-time All-MIAA Third Team selection who owns 1,587 rushing yards in his career, producing nearly half of that last year with 778. Add in 786 receiving and 70 return yards in his career, Tigner enters this year with at total of 2,443 all-purpose yards at FHSU. D.J. Hickman picked up an all-conference honorable mention nod last year with 486 rushing and 186 receiving yards. Altogether, the pair combined for 1,260 rushing and 403 receiving yards last year. Behind Tigner and Hickman the Tigers have four freshmen that redshirted their first year with the program, which includes Te'Corey Tutson, Taegan Schoenfeld, Adrian Soto, and Alex Windholz.
2019 FORT HAYS STATE FOOTBALL
Receivers The Tigers have several proven veteran receivers back this year to bolster their air attack. Seniors Harley Hazlett and Layne Bieberle are both two-time All-MIAA selections as receivers, each adding the distinction a second time to their resume last season. Hazlett was an all-around threat for the Tigers in 2018, setting a new single-season school record for receptions with 91. He finished with 904 receiving yards, 60 rushing yards, and 132 kick return yards in 2018, reaching the endzone a team-best eight times. Bieberle was right behind Hazlett in receiving yards with 894 for the season on 57 catches, while scoring six touchdowns. Bieberle also earned all-conference honors as a punt returner in 2018, finishing with 30 attempts for 304 yards. Hazlett and Bieberle are two of four receivers returning this year that finished with over 200 receiving yards in 2018. The other two include senior Andrew Jay and sophomore Manny Ramsey. Jay had 17 catches for 270 yards and Ramsey added 16 catches for 255 yards, both averaging a team-best 15.9 yards per reception for players with at least 10 receptions. Senior Dandre Reed also returns after a 2018 campaign of 15 catches for 102 yards. The Tigers have several receivers that redshirted last year looking to make an impact this season, while graduate student Kyler Kinnamon hopes to add depth after a very successful four-year basketball career at FHSU. He had 699 points and 427 assists and now ranks fourth on the all-time assists list at FHSU.

WR - HARLEY HAZLETT
RB - CHARLES TIGNER
Tight Ends Matt Wendelberger returns for his senior season as a three-time All-MIAA performer at tight end. Wendelberger had a monster year receiving the ball in 2018, posting 502 receiving yards on 33 catches with four touchdowns despite missing a pair of games with a minor injury. He is also a big asset to the Tiger rushing attack, often serving as a key blocker in opening lanes for Tiger running backs. Junior Jacoby Williams and sophomore Hunter Budke give the Tigers plenty of depth at the tight end position. Williams, who converted to tight end from quarterback last year, finished with six catches for 71 yards and two touchdowns in 2018. Budke made two starts in the absence of Wendelberger and finished with three receptions for 45 yards and one touchdown. The Tigers have a few other players that could compete for time in this role with a handful of returners that either redshirted or saw action on special teams last year. Offensive Linemen Health will be one of the biggest concerns on the offensive line after a pair of starters sustained season-ending injuries in the first game of 2018. Nathan Hale, the starting center for the 2017 undefeated MIAA Championship winning Tigers went down in the season opener against Central Missouri, as well as 2017 All-MIAA left tackle Pat Kelly. With both out, the Tigers instantly became thin on the offensive line and several young players had to elevate their roles. One of the highlights on the youthful line in 2018 was Amari Angram-Boldin, who earned All-MIAA Second Team and Daktronics All-Super Region 3 Third Team honors at left guard in his first year on the offensive line after playing on the defensive line as a redshirt-freshman in 2017. Caden Gober took over at left tackle as a redshirt-freshman in the absence of Kelly and started 11 games last year, while Toby Godwin started eight contests as a redshirt-freshman at right guard. Junior college transfer Ramon Coral earned five starts at right tackle and enters his senior year in 2019. The Tigers hope to put the concerns of health aside with the addition of junior college transfers Ted Hessing (Arizona Western) and Kendrick Davis (Iowa Western). Nick Gossage and Connor Winter both redshirted in their first year out of high school and add to the depth up front this season.

Produced 502 receiving yards on 33 catches last year and now has 917 career receiving yards.
2019 OUTLOOK Defensive Linemen Fort Hays State returns both of its starting defensive ends from the 2018 season, which includes junior Sterling Swopes and senior Sheldon Schmidt. Swopes was an All-MIAA Third Team selection last year, finishing with 41 tackles, a team-best 12.5 tackles for loss, and five sacks, while making 10 starts. Schmidt started all 12 contests and finished with 45 tackles, 6.5 tackles for loss, and two sacks. Sophomore Ian Nordell looks to add depth at defensive end after nine tackles and a sack in 12 games of action last year. The Tigers will be looking for a pair of new starters at defensive tackle with the departure of 2018 seniors Wyatt Parker and Malik Young, both All-MIAA performers. Parker was one of four Tigers to receive All-America honors from the Don Hansen Football Committee, the third straight year a Tiger defensive tackle earned All-America honors. Junior Javaris Sanders looks to elevate his role after finishing with 12 tackles in 11 games last year. Senior Kiel Simas looks to do the same after posting 10 tackles in 11 games of action. Chris Flowers could also enter the mix for a starting spot after playing in all 12 games last year, while recording four tackles. The Tigers have four defensive linemen coming off a redshirt year, while junior college transfers Tyquilo Moore (Butler CC) and Jonathan Williams (Chaffey College) look to give the Tigers a pair of experienced veterans.

TIGER DEFENSE
Linebackers Fort Hays State will have big shoes to fill at linebacker with the departure of 2018 MIAA Defensive Player of the Year Jose Delgado. He set a new career record for tackles at FHSU in the NCAA era with 402, finishing with over 100 tackles in each of his last three years culminating with a career-best 117 in 2018. Kolt Trachsel, who started alongside Delgado for all 12 games last year, is ready to be the lead linebacker for the Tigers in 2019. He is a two-time All-MIAA selection at the position and recorded 59 tackles and three sacks last year. Juniors Jacob Taber and Cooper Griffith, along with sophomore Layke Heimerman look to elevate their role at the position. All three played in 12 games last year with Heimerman leading the way in tackles among the group with 10. The Tigers have four redshirt-freshmen that will add depth at the position, while junior Drew Harvey is a transfer from the University of Kansas that will give the Tigers added experience.
LB - KOLT TRACHSEL
U
Defensive Backs The starting lineup of defensive backs for the Tigers in 2019 will have an almost all new look, with senior Tanner Hoekman as the only returning starter. Hoekman has been rock-solid reliable for the Tigers in the bandit back position earning All-MIAA honors the last two years and making 36 consecutive starts at the position. He will enter the 2019 campaign with 211 tackles and five interceptions in his career. Hoekman's long-time starting partner at the bandit back position, Doyin Jibowu, departed following the 2018 season and went on to sign as an undrafted free agent with the Chicago Bears, giving FHSU two players active on NFL rosters. Looking to take over the role of starter at free safety is sophomore Jordan Starks. He recorded 16 tackles and an interception as a redshirt freshman last year, serving as the understudy of long-time starter Connor Shedeed. Senior Hayden Kreutzer saw action as a reserve at the bandit back position last year and could be an early favorite to elevate into a starting role after nine tackles and an interception last year. Sophomore Jhimon Preston saw action as a reserve last year with 11 tackles and has the ability to play at either bandit back or cornerback. Sophomore Chance Montgomery also looks for more time on the field after recording four tackles in 12 games last year. The Tigers have six returning players that redshirted the 2019 season, so there is a good chance the starting cornerbacks could come from that group. Looking to bolster the depth at defensive back is sophomore transfer Cedric Wright, who recorded six tackles as a freshman at the University of Miami (Fla.) in 2016, and junior Marquise Green, who was an all-conference selection at Chaffey College in California.

2019 OUTLOOK TIGER SPECIALISTS Kickers/Punters The Tigers will be in good shape at the kicker and punter position in 2019. Returning is senior Dante Brown, the reigning Don Hansen Football Committee Division II Special Teams Player of the Year. Brown had a tremendous junior year as he led all NCAA levels in field goals per game (2.33). He knocked through 28 field goals for the year and added 39 PATs to claim the single-season scoring record at FHSU with 123 points. He was also big for the Tigers in the punting game, averaging 41.4 yards per attempt. He was an All-MIAA First Team selection at both kicker and punter, which gave him claim to MIAA Special Teams Player of the Year honors. Looking to possibly ease the burden of punting duties are freshmen Benjamin Donald and Nathan Neef. Donald is from Australia and Neef redshirted his first year with the Tigers. Freshman kicker Jonathan Hunnacutt could also be a backup option to Brown for placekicking duties. Kick/Punt Returners Layne Bieberle gives the Tigers a proven veteran in the role of punt returner entering the 2019 season. The senior was an All-MIAA selection at both wide receiver and punt returner last year. He now holds the FHSU career records for punt returns (63) and punt return yards (600). He finished with 304 return yards last year. Returning Tigers Dandre Reed, Harley Hazlett, Hunter Budke, and D.J. Hickman all recorded kick returns last season. Reed led the group with 16 returns for 326 yards. Hazlett and Budke each had four return attempts, while Hickman added three.
K/P - DANTE BROWN
TIGER SENIORS Fort Hays State has 17 seniors on the roster entering the 2019 season, a group that has combined for 408 games played at Fort Hays State. Nine of the seniors have played their entire collegiate career at FHSU, each carrying more than 30 games of experience and all nine enter their fifth year with the program. Thirteen of the 17 seniors have been part of Fort Hays State's back-toback MIAA Championship teams in 2017 and 2018 and eight have earned All-MIAA honors at some point in their career at FHSU. Dante Brown is the lone returning All-America selection from last year, given the distinction by three organizations and earning the Division II Special Teams Player of the Year honor from the Don Hansen Football Committee. Brown, Layne Bieberle, Harley Hazlett, Tanner Hoekman, Charles Tigner, Kolt Trachsel, and Matt Wendelberger are all multi-time All-MIAA selections. The only first-year player among the group is graduate student Kyler Kinnamon, who was a standout on the FHSU Men's Basketball team for four years.

Back-To-Back MIAA Champions, Tigers Return to NCAA Playoffs
60
Fort Hays State claimed back-to-back conference championships for the first time in its history as an NCAA Division II program, claiming the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association Championship once again in 2018. The Tigers won the title outright in 2017, going a perfect 11-0 in regular season and conference play, but shared the title in 2018 with Northwest Missouri State, each finishing at 9-2 overall. Fort Hays State also made an appearance in the NCAA Division II Playoffs for a second-straight year, also a program first. Fort Hays State and Northwest Missouri State were the only two schools from the MIAA selected to compete in the NCAA Division II Playoffs in 2018. The Tigers went on to fall in the opening round of the playoffs at the University of Indianapolis, capping their year at 9-3 overall. After a 4-2 start to the season, Fort Hays State had to win its final five regular season games to come back and grab a share of the conference crown. The Tigers started the year ranked No. 5 in the AFCA Division II Top 25 Poll and pulled off a thrilling 20-16 come-from-behind win at home over Central Missouri in the season opener to hold on to that ranking. The Tigers scored 14 unanswered fourth-quarter points after trailing 16-6 with five minutes to go in the game. That ranking lasted only a week during the regular season as Fort Hays State had a six-game road win streak dating back to 2016 snapped in a 23-13 loss at Missouri Western. Falling to No. 17 in the AFCA Poll, Fort Hays State jumped back on the winning track with a 3024 win over Washburn at home. That triggered a three-game win streak for the Tigers as they went on to drub Missouri Southern in Joplin by a score of 55-20, then returned home to blank Central Oklahoma 15-0. Fort Hays State scored all 15 points on field goals in the win over Central Oklahoma, as kicker Dante Brown broke a school record for field goals made in a game, while posting its first shutout of an opponent since 2008. The Tigers suffered yet another road setback at Emporia State in the sixth game of the season. FHSU took a 17-14 lead to the fourth quarter, but could not hold on as the rival Hornets rallied for 21 points in the fourth quarter to edge the Tigers 28-24. FHSU took a lead on a touchdown with 5:31 remaining, but ESU grabbed the lead back for good on a touchdown 51 ticks remaining on the clock. Knowing that another loss would put the chances of reaching the NCAA Playoffs a second-straight year in jeopardy, the Tigers buckled down and ran off five wins in a row to close out the regular season. The streak started with a 50-21 thrashing of No. 18 ranked Pittsburg State in Hays, just after the Tigers fell out of the AFCA Top 25. The Tigers found themselves in another tough road battle a week later, having to use two overtimes to defeat Nebraska-Kearney 29-26. Dante Brown once again made five field goals, matching his school single-game record, converting both of his attempts in the extra periods. The Tigers moved to 7-2 overall with a workmanlike 27-14 win over Lindenwood in Hays. With the win over Lindenwood, Chris Brown became the all-time coaching wins leader in FHSU Football history, reaching his 56th victory at FHSU. The big showdown loomed in Week 10 at Northwest Missouri State. The Tigers sat a game back of the Bearcats in the loss column in the MIAA standings, but still knew they needed a win to strengthen their case for the NCAA Playoffs. The Tigers shocked the world a year before in Maryville, knocking off the then defending national champs 13-12 to win the MIAA title outright, while going on to an undefeated regular season. The Tigers were up to the task in Maryville once again in 2018, claiming a one-point victory once again, 17-16, stopping the Bearcats from grabbing an outright MIAA title. The Tigers became the first team to defeat the Bearcats in back-to-back seasons since Missouri Western accomplished the feat in 2011 and 2012. So both teams went into the final week of the regular season tied in the MIAA standings. Fort Hays State put its claim on a second-straight MIAA Championship with a doubt-free 58-0 shellacking of Northeastern State in Hays. It was the second shutout posted by the Tigers at home during the year and completed the five-game win streak to solidify a spot in the NCAA Playoffs. Fort Hays State received the No. 5 seed in Super Region 3 of the NCAA Playoffs, tasked with going on the road to No. 4 seed University of Indianapolis, the Great Lakes Valley Conference Champion. The Tigers were searching for their first-ever NCAA Playoff win, but it was not to be as the Greyhounds posted a 38-27 win on their home field. The Tigers led 24-17 going into the fourth quarter, but could not hold off a late rally by the Greyhounds as they saw their season end. FHSU went into the game ranked No. 19 by the AFCA, while Indianapolis held a No. 12 ranking. Fort Hays State was a perfect 6-0 at home in 2018, but suffered all its losses on the road going 3-3 away from Hays. The Tigers had 21 All-MIAA selections for the second-straight year, with two players receiving honors in two separate positions. Jose Delgado earned MIAA Defensive Player of the Year honors, giving the Tigers the conference’s top defender for the third straight year. Dante Brown earned Special Teams Player of the Year, earning first team all-conference honors as both a kicker and punter. Layne Bieberle joined Brown as the two players earning honors at two positions, receiving honors as both a receiver and punt returner. Joining Delgado and Brown as first-team allconference selections were safety Doyin Jibowu and defensive lineman Wyatt Parker. All four went on to receive All-America honors, with Delgado and Brown earning first-team honors by a pair of organizations. Head coach Chris Brown earned MIAA Coach of the Year for the second-consecutive season, guiding the Tigers to back-to-back conference titles. Jibowu went on to sign as an undrafted rookie free agent with the Chicago Bears. That gave the Tigers a pair of active NFL players as Jibowu joined 2018 NFL Draft Third-Round Pick Nathan Shepherd in the highest echelon of professional football. Shepherd recorded 15 tackles in his rookie season with the New York Jets.

The Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association, a 14-member conference of NCAA Division II institutions in Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma and Nebraska, was first organized in 1912 as the Missouri Intercollegiate Athletic Association. The MIAA has gained the reputation of being one of the top NCAA Division II conferences in the nation. MIAA student-athletes have won 36 NCAA team championships and, since 1963, more than 256 individual national titles. The MIAA currently conducts championships in 10 sports for men and 10 for women. For the men, champions are crowned in football, soccer, cross country, basketball, wrestling, indoor and outdoor track & field, baseball, tennis and golf. The women compete for titles in volleyball, cross country, soccer, basketball, bowling, indoor and outdoor track & field, softball, golf and tennis. Mike Racy became the fifth full-time commissioner in MIAA history when he succeeded Dr. Bob Boerigter on February 1, 2017. Racy has more than 20 years of leadership experience in higher education, including a 14-year tenure as a Vice President for NCAA Division II. Larry House joined the MIAA staff in the summer of 2007 to assist in the marketing of the conference and its events, as well as aid in the league’s external affairs.
