#SACFB The South Atlantic Conference is in its 40th year of athletic tradition and excellence. The distant forerunner of the South Atlantic Conference was the North State Atlantic Conference (NSIAC). The NSIAC was formed when the “Little Six”, as it was called, broke from the North Carolina Intercollegiate Athletic Conference in 1930. These charter members included Lenoir-Rhyne College, Atlantic Christian, Catawba College, Guilford College, Elon College, and High Point University. The North State continued to grow over the next 30 years, adding Western Carolina (1933), East Carolina (1947) and Pfeiffer (1960). A name change became necessary when the league accepted Newberry as its first South Carolina member in 1961. The league took on the name Carolinas Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (CIAC) on May 20th of that year. The CIAC saw several changes in the following years as East Carolina withdrew from the league in 1962. Appalachian State and Western Carolina followed in 1971 and 1976. All three landed in the Southern Conference. The South Atlantic Conference was founded in 1975 solely as a football conference. The league received its name from a contest in which Kurt Brenneman of Greensboro, NC became the first to submit the SAC-8 moniker. The SAC-8 consisted of Carson-Newman College, Catawba College, Elon College, Gardner-Webb University, Lenoir-Rhyne College, Mars Hill College, Newberry College, and Presbyterian College. Dr. Fred Bentley, of Mars Hill College, was named league president for its inaugural year, by a vote of the member institutions. After the first season of play in the SAC-8, the Bears of Lenoir-Rhyne College captured the first football title. In 1989, the league’s 15th year of operation, the South Atlantic Conference became a comprehensive, multisport conference. Doug Echols was named the league’s first Commissioner. That year the South Atlantic Conference sponsored 10 sports - football, men’s and women’s basketball, baseball, softball, men’s soccer, volleyball, men’s golf, men’s and women’s tennis. Later the conference grew to 14 championship sports by adding women‘s soccer (1990), men’s and women’s cross country (1993) and women’s golf (1999). In 2013, the sports of men’s and women’s lacrosse and men’s and women’s track and field were added, increasing the

history of THE SAC
number of championship sports to 18. The South Atlantic Conference was composed of the same eight member institutions from 1975 until 1988, when Wingate University replaced Newberry College as the eighth member institution. Newberry later rejoined the conference in 1996. In July of 1998, Tusculum College was admitted as a member of the league, and Lincoln Memorial University began play in the conference in the 2006-07 academic year. Brevard College was admitted as a provisional member in 2007 and a full member in 2008. In 2008, Echols retired after serving as Commissioner for 19 years and Patrick Britz was hired as the new Commissioner. In July 2010, Anderson University became the league’s 10th member. Three years later in July 2013, Coker College and Queens University of Charlotte joined the conference. Today the conference is a group of 12 private, liberal and civic arts colleges and universities, similar in size and athletic philosophy. Since becoming eligible for NCAA Division II postseason play in 1993, the league has sent representatives from all of its sponsored sports to NCAA postseason play. The league membership now includes Anderson University in Anderson, S.C.; Brevard College in Brevard, N.C.; Carson-Newman University in Jefferson City, Tenn.; Catawba College in Salisbury, N.C.; Coker College in Hartsville, S.C.; Lenoir-Rhyne University in Hickory, N.C.; Lincoln Memorial University in Harrogate, Tenn.; Mars Hill University in Mars Hill, N.C.; Newberry College in Newberry, S.C.; Queens University of Charlotte

Patrick Britz
Eliane Kebbe
Commissioner
Associate Commissioner/SWA
Patrick Britz enters his eighth year as the Commissioner of the South Atlantic Conference (SAC) after being named the league’s second commissioner in May 2008. Under Britz’s leadership, the SAC has expanded to its largest membership ever with 12 member institutions as Brevard College became a full-time member in 2008-09, Anderson (SC) University joined in 2010-11, and Coker College and Queens University of Charlotte in 2013-14. The SAC also expanded from 14 championship sports to 18 in 2013-14 as men’s and women’s lacrosse and men’s and women’s outdoor track and field were be added. Britz has also overseen the revision of the conference bylaws and sports policies, as well as the development of two strategic plans. Britz has led historic achievements in the overall success of SAC athletics in NCAA Championship participation. In the past two years, SAC teams from three different sports and three different schools have advanced to the final game of the NCAA Championship – Lenoir-Rhyne football and Carson-Newman men’s soccer in 2013 and Catawba baseball in 2015. Further, SAC schools have won 18 NCAA regional titles in nine sports since 2008-09. During Britz’s tenure, the league has started a formal compliance review process where an external entity visits each member institution and conducts an in-depth review. The first round of visits was completed in 2011-12 and the next round begins in 2015-16. He also developed and implemented a new coaches’ orientation program that started in the fall of 2014. He has also overseen the enhancement of the conference’s awards program and championship events, providing live video-streaming for most of the finals of the team championships starting in 2010-11. He also recently secured a title sponsor – Pilot Flying J - for the conference baseball championship for 2016 through 2018. Britz negotiated an agreement with Timmons Arena on the campus of Furman University to host the semifinals and finals of the SAC Men’s and Women’s Basketball Conference Tournament through 2018. The contract extension guarantees the continuation of the conference tournament at the same neutral site since 2013. Britz also announced the SAC Baseball Championship will move to Smokies Stadium in Kodak, Tenn., the home of the AA affiliated of Major League Baseball’s Chicago Cubs starting in 2016. In addition, the semifinals and finals of the SAC Men’s and Women’s Soccer Championship will continue to be played at Manchester Meadows in Rock Hill, S.C., the same neutral site this event has been conducted at since 2007. Prior to joing the SAC, Britz served as the first Director of Division I intercollegiate programs for the NSCAA from 2005-2008. During his tenure with the NSCAA, Britz was responsible for raising the visibility of men’s and women’s Division I Intercollegiate soccer. He played a vital role in the establishment and expansion of the Fox Soccer Channel College Match of the Week, including selling corporate sponsorships. He served as the liaison between the NSCAA and various constituent groups, including the NCAA, Division I men’s and women’s coaches and the National Intercollegiate Soccer Officials Association. Britz has extensive experience in collegiate administration. He served as the senior associate director of athletics for compliance and administration at Texas Tech University from 2001-2005 and worked for five years in the NCAA national office (1996-2001). He was assistant director of athletics for compliance and student services at East Tennessee State University for two years (1995-1996) and began his career as assistant commissioner for championships and compliance for the Southern Conference in 1991.

In addition, Kebbe serves as the SAC’s Senior Women’s Administrator and works with the league’s SWA Committee and Student-Athlete Advisory Committee. Kebbe has more than 20 years in athletic administration. Prior to joining the South Atlantic Conference, Kebbe served as Director of Athletics at Belmont Abbey College in Belmont, N.C., from 1997 to 2007, where she was responsible for overseeing planning and budgets for 16 varsity teams, athletic training, compliance and sports information. Under her guidance, Belmont Abbey won two Joby Hawn Cups, the trophy presented to the best all-around athletic program in the Conference Carolinas, and increased sports sponsorship from 12 to 16 varsity sports. Kebbe was given the Administrator of the Year Award in 2005. Kebbe served as a successful head women’s basketball coach at Belmont Abbey from 1986 to 2001. She guided her teams to six conference tournament championships, three conference tournament runner-up titles, six regular season championships and six national tournament berths. She earned conference and district Coach of the Year Awards, and ranks as one of the NCAA Division II’s winningest coaches, with a record of 315-110 in 15 years at Belmont Abbey. In 2002, Kebbe - the winningest basketball coach in Belmont Abbey history - was inducted into the Belmont Sports Hall of Fame. Kebbe has served on several NCAA national committees, including the NCAA Division II Women’s Basketball Committee - on which she chaired her final year - and the NCAA Division II Legislation Committee. In the fall of 2014 Kebbe was again named to the NCAA Division II Women’s Basketball Committee. Kebbe received her Bachelor of Arts degree from Queens College in Flushing, N.Y., and a Masters of Education from the University of Georgia.
Britz has been highly involved within the NCAA committee structure. From 2009-2013, he served on the Division II Women’s Soccer Committee and was the Division II representative on the NCAA Woman of the Year Selection Committee from 2010-2012. Britz is beginning his second year on the NCAA Division II Championships Committee and also is chair of the Division II CCA National Letter of Intent Review Committee. In addition, he was the lone Division II representative on the recently created CCA/NLI Football Recruiting Working Group to evaluate the possibility of an early signing period in the sport of football. While at Texas Tech, Britz served on the Division I Initial-Eligibility Waiver Committee and on the NCAA Athletics Certification Peer Review Committee. He holds a bachelor’s degree in economics and finance from the University of North Carolina Asheville and an MBA in Sports Business from Saint Leo University. While at UNC Asheville, Britz was a four-time academic all-conference selection for the Bulldogs soccer team and graduated as the school’s second all-time leading scorer. Britz was inducted into the UNC Asheville Athletics Hall of Fame in February 2007. In addition, he is the co-author of the book Athletic Scholarships for Dummies, published in December 2005 and was inducted into the Bishop McGuinness Catholic High School (Winston-Salem, N.C.) Hall of Fame in October 2011. Britz and his wife, Joanna, reside in Fort Mill, S.C. and have two daughters, Emersyn (3) and Delaney (2) and are expecting their third child in September 2015.

Head Coach Paul Hamilton - 9th Season Head Coach Paul Hamilton enters his 34th year coaching collegiate football at both the Division I and Division II levels, with 17 years of experience as a head coach. Hamilton is in his ninth year at the helm of the Tornados. The 2014 Tornados featured one of the nation’s best offenses, averaging 321.6 rushing yards per game to finish sixth nationally. Brevard rushed for 562 yards in a win over College of Faith, the second-highest total of any Division II team all season, and surpassed 250 rushing yards in eight games. Brevard also led the nation in red zone efficiency (93.2 percent), were second in time of possession (35:31), and finished third in fourth down conversions (75.9 percent). Brevard also finished in the top 10 nationally in yards per completion and penalties, setting 58 team or individual school records during the season. Three players made postseason all-star game appearances, including two by Cliff Harris Award finalist Micahel Gruber, and the Tornados had five players named all-conference. Hamilton also received one of his biggest coaching honors after the 2014 season, earning a selection to the Medal of Honor Bowl coaching staff alongside three coaches who had been former colleagues. The American Team staff also included his father Rusty, who became a fixture in Charleston, South Carolina-area high school football during a coaching career spanning several decades. In 2013, Hamilton guided the Tornados to a three-win campaign that saw a number of statistical highlights. His quarterbacks led the conference in passing efficiency and ranked third nationally in yards per completed pass. In addition to being disciplined, committing just 12 turnovers on the season for the fifth-best total in Division II and ranking third nationally in penalties, Hamilton coached a trio of All-Region performers and an Honorable Mention All-American linebacker in Michael Gruber. In 2012, Brevard was the least-penalized team in Division II football as Hamilton led Jordan Ollis (FB) and Eric Watts (P) to Don Hansen’s Division II All-America Team. BC also toppled formerly nationally- ranked Newberry 27-13 in its season finale on November 10th. The 2011 season saw Brevard again in the top 10 in the NCAA DII in rushing as the Tornados finished eighth in the nation. The Tornados also had a school record seven players named to the postseason All-SAC team and their first two All-Americans in program history in Caleb Campbell (OL) and Jack Woerner (FB). In the 2010 season, the Tornados finished with the NCAA DII’s third ranked rushing attack and saw five players named to the All-SAC postseason team, including the SAC Offensive Freshman of the year, Kelvin Jeter. The Tornados finished 7-4 in 2009 with wins against SAC opponents LenoirRhyne, Tusculum and Catawba. The turnaround from the 2008 season, when they finished 1-9 in their first year in the SAC, was recognized as the 11th best in Division II that year by Somis Sports. Coach Hamilton’s squad, which only had a month of preparation under the head coach prior to the start of the 2007 season, recorded home wins over both Chowan University and LaGrange College. In 2007, the Tornados improved in every statistical category as they competed as provisional members of both the NCAA Division II level and of the South Atlantic Conference, which had four different teams ranked throughout the season.
ence in total offense, total defense and boasted the league’s Male Athlete of the Year, Offensive Player of the Year, Defensive Player of the Year and Rookie of the Year. The team’s 7-4 record in 1997 tied as the second highest win total ever by a Buccaneer squad and gave Hamilton the best record ever by a first-year head coach at ETSU. The Buccaneers set three single-season team records in 1997, including the marks for points per game and total offense per game. ETSU was ranked in the top-25 throughout much of the season, as two of Hamilton’s players were named first-team All-Americans by the Associated Press and the Sports Network. Hamilton then moved on to be the head coach at Elon in 2004 and 2005. In his first season as head coach he guided the Phoenix to two Southern Conference victories, a first in the school’s young history as a conference member. He posted a 6-16 record at Elon over the two year span where he coached seven All-Southern Conference players, five Southern Conference Athletes of the Month, two Academic All-Conference players and one Academic All-American. In 2006, Hamilton returned to the Air Force Academy to coach the fullbacks for his former college coach, Fisher DeBerry. Hamilton and his wife, Jane, a native of Spruce Pine, North Carolina, have three children – a son, Kye and two daughters, Jenna and Alanna.

Hamilton began his collegiate football coaching career at the Citadel in 1981 where he coached the receivers. He then moved on to East Tennessee State University where he coached the receivers in 1983 before coaching the quarterbacks in 1984-1985 and 1986-1987. Hamilton coached the quarterbacks and served as the offensive coordinator at Wofford College in 1988-1989. Coach Hamilton served his first coaching stint with the U.S. Air Force Academy from 1990-1996. During his last three seasons, he called the offensive plays for the Falcons in addition to serving as the quarterbacks coach. Air Force competed in four bowl games during Hamilton’s time there and ranked second nationally in rushing and in the top-25 total offense four times. While at Air Force, Hamilton coached quarterback Beau Morgan, who finished in the top-10 in the Heisman Trophy voting and was named a thirdteam Associated Press All-American in 1996. Under Hamilton’s guidance, Morgan became the first player in NCAA history to pass and rush for over 1,000 yards in two different seasons. He also broke the NCAA single season rushing record for a quarterback, and became only the second player in NCAA history to run and pass for 3,000 yards in a career. Hamilton’s first break as a head coach came at East Tennessee State, where he coached from 1997-2003 and amassed a record of 38-41. During his first season at ETSU, Hamilton’s team led the Southern Confer-

carson-newman eagles Head Coach Ken Sparks - 36th Season As Ken Sparks embarks on his 36th season he does so continuing a battle with a cancer that was diagnosed on June 30, 2012. Christian principles have been the driving force behind Sparks’ coaching career. It was his faith that brought him to Carson-Newman in 1980 and it is his faith that will see him through this latest challenge. He is the winningest active head coach in the country with 325 wins, 89 loss and two ties. Sparks passed legendary Alabama head coach Bear Bryant with a win on homecoming in 2014 over North Greenville. Going into 2015, Sparks is seven wins behind former Mount Union head coach Larry Kerhes for fifth on the all-time wins list.
In 2012 Sparks made history, becoming only the 12th man in college football to record 300 wins. The coach is reluctant to shine the spotlight on himself and his accomplishments. Sparks would instead rather be measured by his impact in the lives of the young men and coaches who’ve been a part of his CarsonNewman family. For Coach Sparks, football is a laboratory of learning where he and his staff strive to develop the whole person – educationally, socially, athletically and spiritually. Along the way, Sparks has developed one of the winningest football programs in the history of the sport. The Eagles have won five NAIA National Titles and played for it six times. A move to NCAA Division II didn’t slow Sparks’ Carson-Newman squad down. The Eagles played for the D-II National Title three times and were a semifinalist in 2009. The rest of the numbers speak for themselves as Sparks has recorded 21 South Atlantic Conference Championships, 24 NCAA or NAIA playoff appearances and a 325-89-2 record. Sparks holds the all-time record for wins in NCAA Division II and, with the recent retirement of St. John’s (Minn.) John Gagliardi and Mount Union’s Larry Kehres, Sparks is the activce leader in coaching wins. In fact, at the start of the 2015 season, he was the only active head coach with more than 273 wins (Virginia Tech’s Frank Beamer). Sparks was inducted into the inaugural NCAA Division II Hall of Fame Coaches Class in 2010 along with Northwest Missouri State’s Mel Tjeerdsma and West Alabama’s Bobby Wallace. Coach Sparks is also a member of the South Atlantic Conference Hall of Fame, the Knoxville Sports Hall of Fame, the Carson-Newman Athletic Hall of Fame, the Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame and the NAIA Hall of Fame. Sparks has been honored with the Fellowship of Christian Athletes Lifetime Achievement Award and National Coach of the Year. In 2002 Sparks received the All-American Football Foundation’s Johnny Vaught Lifetime Achievement Award. Coach Sparks earned NAIA Coach of the Year honors in 1984. He’s been voted SAC Coach of the Year 12 times. Sparks is a two-time winner of the Tennessee Sportswriters Coach of the Year in 1999 and 2002 and was also named Division II Coach of the Year by American Football Coach Magazine. In 2010, Sparks received the prestigious General Robert R. Neyland Trophy, presented by the Knoxville Quarterback Club for contributing greatly to intercollegiate athletics. The Eagles’ postseason run under Sparks began in 1982, when he guided the Eagles to a 10-2 record and an NAIA playoff berth in his third season. Carson-Newman lost in the opening round of the playoffs that season, but the culture of the Eagles program was forever changed. The next season, C-N won its second-straight SAC-8 title, then captured its first national football title in school history, beating heavily-favored Mesa State 36-28 in the NAIA Champion Bowl. The Eagles brought home four more titles beginning with a 19-19 tie with Central Arkansas in 1984. Carson-Newman shutout Cameron 17-0 in the 1986 championship game, blew out Adams State 56-21 in 1988 for the title and cruised to a fifth in 1989 with a 34-20 win over Emporia State. In 2009, After opening the season 0-2, the Eagles reeled off 11 consecutive victories, including a perfect 7-0 mark in the SAC to claim their 21st conference title. C-N fell a game short of making its 11th national title game appearance, falling to Grand Valley State in the Division II semifinals.
teams with distinction, receiving Southern Collegiate Track Coach of the Year honors in 1977. With Sparks running the offense, the 1972 Eagles advanced to their first-ever NAIA Champion Bowl, falling to East Texas State. Sparks took over the Farragut High School football program in 1977, guiding the Admirals to a 29-5 record. Sparks was twice-voted KIL and KFA Coach of the Year. After three seasons, Sparks was asked to take command of the Carson-Newman football program. .

2012 went down similarly for Sparks’ Eagles. After stuttering to a 2-2 start, the Eagles reeled of seven consecutive victories to earn a first round bye. C-N came out in round two and took the SAC champions, the Lenoir-Rhyne Bears, out of the playoffs with a 38-35 victory. Carson-Newman would fall just shy of the semis against eventual national champions Valdosta State. A native of Knoxville, Tenn., Sparks began his coaching career at Gibbs High School in Knoxville, restarting the football program with a winning season. A year later Sparks coached quarterbacks and wide receivers at Tennessee Tech while earning his Master’s Degree. He coached Morristown East High School for one season before returning to his alma mater, Carson-Newman, to serve as offensive coordinator for then-Carson-Newman head coach Dal Shealy and oversee the track program.

Head Coach Curtis Walker - 3rd Season Curtis Walker became the Head Football Coach at Catawba in December of 2012. He returned to his alma mater after spending one season as the defensive coordinator and linebacker coach at Western Carolina University. Prior to his year in Cullowhee, Walker spent 10 years as the defensive coordinator and linebackers coach at Coastal Carolina University.
Walker’s Career as Head Coach Year School 2013 Catawba 2014 Catawba Total
During Walker’s 10 seasons in Conway, the Chanticleers had four players on the defensive side garner All-America accolades, while players within his defense earned a combined 44 All-Big South accolades as the Chanticleers captured three straight Big South Conference titles (200406). Coastal also won the league championship in 2010. Under Walker, Coastal led the league in pass defense in 2006, ‘07 and `08. On the strength of 18 interceptions in `07, the Chanticleers ranked sixth nationally in turnover margin (1.36). In 2006, Coastal’s defense tied for the national lead with 19 interceptions. Walker’s defense led the nation in pass efficiency defense and contributed to the top turnover margin in the country, setting a Big South record at plus 22. Coastal twice led the nation in interceptions, getting 19 in 2006 and 27 in 2004. Walker was a four-year starter and three-time All-American linebacker for Catawba in 1989-92, graduating in 1992 with a degree in sociology. He was inducted into the Catawba Sports Hall of Fame in 2004 and into the South Atlantic Conference Hall of Fame in 2008. Walker was Catawba’s team most valuable player in 1991 and served as team captain in 1992. Walker still holds the Catawba single game record for tackles with 25 stops against Wofford in 1991. He also still owns the all-time single season record for fumble recoveries with six, also set in 1991. Walker earned All-America honors his final three seasons, including first team accolades as a senior in 1992. Following graduation from Catawba and a two-year coaching period at Salisbury High School, Walker joined the staff at Catawba in 1995. He coached the linebackers and began coordinating all recruiting in 1997. Walker was promoted to defensive coordinator in 2001 and the Indians were ranked first in Division II in scoring defense and 15th in total defense. At Catawba, Walker was a part of three South Atlantic Conference championships (1996, 2000 and 2001) and three NCAA playoff appearances (1999, 2000 and 2001). The Indians were a combined 22-3 in 2000-01, a lot of the success due to a suffocating defense. Catawba allowed just 13.5 points per game during those 25 games. A native of Burlington, NC, Walker was a two-time football all-conference performer at Graham High School, prior to graduating in 1988. He was the Mid-State Conference Defensive Player of the Year in 1987. Walker and his wife, Sheka, have two sons; Jalon (11) and Curtis II (9).

Head Coach Ian Shields - 2nd Year Ian Shields will begin his second season as Head Football Coach at Lenoir-Rhyne in 2015. Hired on January 14, 2014, Shields is the 20th Head Coach in school history and took over one of the top Division II programs in the country. Shields kept the Bears’ recent tradition of excellence going in 2014, as Lenoir-Rhyne finished the year with an 11-1 record and a perfect 7-0 mark in South Atlantic Conference play. The Bears also won a fourth straight league title, earned the top seed in Super Region No. 2 for the second straight season and garnered a No. 8 final national ranking in the AFCA NCAA Division II Coaches Poll. During the year, the Bears were ranked as high as third in the country. In addition, the Bears put together their first perfect season in 52 years and set an NCAA Division II single-season record for rushing yards (416.2 ypg) behind a vaunted triple-option attack. Seven Bears earned some form of All-American honors after the season while Shields was named the SAC Coach Of The Year. Shields coached two of Lenoir-Rhyne’s most decorated players in school history last fall: offensive lineman Joe Ray and linebacker Tanner Botts, a pair of first-team All-Americans. Ray is a two-time recipient of the Jacobs Blocking Trophy while Botts was named the league and region defensive player of the year. Shields came to Lenoir-Rhyne after spending the past five seasons as the Associate Head Coach and Offensive Coordinator at Army (2009-13). Under Shields, Army produced one of the most prolific rushing attacks not only in the nation, but in West Point history. Army’s spread option offense topped the NCAA Division I rushing list in both 2011 and 2012. It was the first time the Black Knights had led the country in that category in consecutive seasons since Col. Earl “Red’ Blaik led the 1944 and 1945 squads.
Shields also helped mold wide receiver Ramses Barden. Barden caught 67 passes for 1,257 yards and 18 touchdowns on his way to becoming the school’s career leader in all three categories (206 receptions, 4,203 yards and 50 touchdown catches). Barden recorded at least one touchdown reception in his final 20 contests, surpassing Jerry Rice’s NCAA FCS mark and Larry Fitzgerald’s all-time NCAA record. He was selected by the New York Giants in the third round of the 2009 National Football League Draft. Shields, who also served as Cal Poly’s co-offensive coordinator in 2004 and 2005, departed San Luis Obispo in 2006 when he began a two-year stint as head coach at Eastern Oregon University (2006-07), the first two years the program competed in the scholarship Frontier League of the NAIA. Shields led the Mountaineers to a 6-5 finish in 2006 after winning their last three games. Prior to that year, the Frontier League coaches had picked EOU to finish in last place. As co-offensive coordinator at Cal Poly during his first two seasons with the school, Shields was instrumental in developing a dynamic spreadoption offensive attack and guiding Cal Poly to its first NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision playoff berth and victory in 2005. Cal Poly also captured consecutive Great West Conference Championships in 2004 and 2005. A 1994 graduate of Oregon State University and former quarterback for the Beavers, Shields served a one-year term as offensive coordinator at Bucknell University in 2003. The Bison recorded the biggest single-season turnaround in Patriot League history that season, leading the league in rushing, passing efficiency, turnover margin, fewest penalties against and fewest sacks against. A native Oregonian, Shields, who lettered three times in football and twice in baseball at Oregon State, was elected team captain of the gridiron squad during his final campaign. He graduated with a bachelor’s degree in speech communication and earned a master’s degree in interdisciplinary studies (education, communication and exercise sport science) from Oregon State University. Shields and his wife, Norma, a former collegiate volleyball player at Eastern Oregon, are the proud parents of three sons: Beau, Jonah and Jordan.
The 2012 team set Academy records for both total rushing yards (4,438) and rushing yards per game (369.8 ypg). The 2011 squad was the first in Academy history to crack the 4,000-yard mark (4,158). Under Shields’ guidance, the 2012 team set an Army record with 5,235 yards of total offense, the first 5,000-yard season in school history. The Black Knights’ 436.2 yards-per-game average ranked fourth on the Army all-time ledger. The 2011 squad also recorded 254 first downs, a shortlived Army record as the 2012 Black Knights moved the chains 283 times. With Shields guidance offensively, Army never ranked lower than 16th in the nation in rushing, producing three top-five finishes. His offenses accounted for four of the program’s 12 most productive seasons on the ground in terms of yardage and touchdowns, and four of the Black Knights’ top 16 rushing games have come in the last four seasons. Four of the five units that Shields coached at West Point finished among the Black Knights’ all-time top 10 in total offensive yardage. Shields also coached Trent Steelman (2009-12), one of the most prolific players in school history. Steelman set Army records in rushing attempts (772), rushing yards (3,320) and 100-yard rushing games (12) by a quarterback. Steelman also broke the school record for career rushing touchdowns (45) and became the first Black Knight to both rush and pass for 2,000 yards in a career.
Shields’ Career as Head Coach Year School 2006 Eastern Oregon 2007 Eastern Oregon 2014 Lenoir-Rhyne Total
He finished his career ranked among Army’s all-time top 10 in passing yards, pass completions, pass efficiency, total offense, all-purpose yards, points scored, touchdowns scored and touchdowns responsible for. Shields was also part of a staff that led Army to its first bowl victory in 25 years in 2010, a win over SMU in the Armed Forces Bowl. Prior to Army, Shields served as the offensive coordinator and assistant head coach in 2008 at Cal Poly, an NCAA Division I FCS school. Under Shields’ direction that season, the Mustangs established school records for first downs (262), first downs rushing (162), points scored (488) and touchdowns (67). Shields’ offense scored at least 49 points in six of 11 contests, topping the 50-point barrier three times, including a season-high 69 points in a home defeat of Southern Utah. Cal Poly scored in 41 of its 44 quarters of action in 2008. The Mustangs finished the season ranked first nationally in both total offense (487.5 ypg) and scoring offense (44.4 ppg), second in pass efficiency (167.72) and third in rushing offense (306.5 ypg). Shields’ 2008 offense was spearheaded by quarterback Jonathan Dally, who led the nation in passing efficiency (171.6) in 2008. He was a FirstTeam All-Great West Conference pick after throwing for 23 touchdowns against just five interceptions in addition to 11 rushing scores.

Head Coach Tim Clifton - 23rd Year
Tim Clifton is entering his 23rd season at Mars Hill University. Clifton has led the Lions to a .500 record or higher in 15 seasons including the SAC title and the Lions first NCAA post season appearance in 2011. For his efforts guiding the Lions in 2011, Clifton was named the SAC Coach of the Year. He has a career record at Mars Hill of 119-112-0. The 119 wins place Clifton second in all-time wins of all SAC head coaches. He has recorded 70 conference victories that also places him second in that category among all-time SAC head coaches. During the 2003 season Clifton broke the school’s record for most wins by a head football coach. He surpassed Claude Gibson (1973-82) who ended his career with an overall record of 55-37-2 (.585). Under Clifton’s direction, the Lion offense has exploded breaking several single season offensive school records such as longest run from scrimmage (94 yards by senior Leon Williams), most PAT’s scored (37) most rushing yards gained (3,130), most total offensive yards (4,803), most first downs (250), and most points scored (327). Clifton came to Mars Hill from Ferrum College in Ferrum, Virginia, where he had been the offensive coordinator since 1987. During Clifton’s tenure, Ferrum went to four straight NCAA Division III playoffs. In the 1988-89 school year, Ferrum was a national semifinalist. Clifton has had the privilege of coaching 81 All-Conference Honor Roll players, 97 All-SAC performers, eight SAC Freshmen of the Year, and five SAC Players of the Year. In 2011 Jonas Randolph won the Harlon Hill Trophy. Clifton has also been fortunate to coach eight All-Americans.

Head Coach Frankie DeBusk - 18th Season Frankie DeBusk is in his 18th season as head football coach at Tusculum College. Since taking over the TC football program, DeBusk has built the Pioneers into yearly contenders in NCAA Division II, resulting in winning seasons in 10 of the last 15 years. He is also serving the dual role as athletic director at Tusculum, a position he assumed in August 2007. The 2014 squad opened the year with a 1-4 record, but Tusculum rebounded by winning five of its last six outings, including a four-game winning streak to end the season and finish third in the South Atlantic Conference standings. Over the past 14 seasons, TC has posted 83 victories, including a 9-4 record in 2008, while claiming the program’s second South Atlantic Conference Championship and earning the school’s first berth to the NCAA II Football Playoffs. His 92 victories on the Pioneer sidelines makes DeBusk the winningest gridiron coach in Tusculum history. His victory tally is the third most in SAC history. DeBusk has brought an exciting brand of football to the Greeneville campus since his arrival in 1997 as six of his last seven teams have led the conference in pass offense, including the 2010 club that led the nation in passing averaging 424.8 yards per game. Since 2007, the Pioneers have passed for 28,462 yards, averaging 319.8 yards per contest over the last eight seasons. He has mentored three Harlon Hill Trophy national finalists, including twotime SAC Offensive Player of the Year Bo Cordell. Cordell smashed the NCAA II record books in his vaunted career at Tusculum as the most prolific passer of all time. In 2013, he became DII’s all-time leader in passing yards (16,265), total offensive yards (16,432), completions (1,397) and pass attempts (2,187). In all, he established 19 school, 13 conference and nine NCAA II records during his 46-game collegiate career. He also passed for a school and SAC record 112 touchdowns and rushed for 15 more, giving him 127 TDs accounted for (most in TC and SAC history). In 1998, the energetic DeBusk took over a program that won only three games in its two previous seasons, becoming the third gridiron skipper since the program’s reinstatement in 1991.
where he worked with the Moc receivers and quarterbacks for four seasons, before assuming the role of offensive coordinator in 1997. The Mocs posted their most successful season since 1991, with a 7-4 tally sheet in 1997. In 2003, DeBusk was the recipient of the prestigious Art Argauer Award, which is presented to the Tusculum coach of the year as selected by his peers. He was the co-recipient of the Argauer Award again in the 2008-09 year. Frankie DeBusk is married to the former Jennifer Coffey of Bristol, Tenn. and they have one son, Ty.

His teams have rewritten the Tusculum record book by equaling or establishing over 100 team and individual marks. Since joining the South Atlantic Conference in 1999, 78 players have earned All-Conference recognition, including 32 All-Region honorees and 20 All-Americans. DeBusk came to the Greeneville campus after five seasons as an assistant coach at Chattanooga. DeBusk, a 1991 Furman graduate, established 11 school records at quarterback for the Paladins, while compiling an impressive 31-6 record. In 1988, DeBusk led Furman to a 13-2 mark while capturing the NCAA Division I-AA National Championship. Following graduation, DeBusk joined the Furman coaching staff as a graduate assistant coach in 1991 and was a restricted earnings assistant coach at his alma mater in 1992. The Paladins went 13-9 during that two-year span. DeBusk stayed within the league as he joined the Chattanooga staff in 1993

The Allstate Insurance Company and the American Football Coaches Association (AFCA) named Mapoles to 2014 Allstate AFCA Good Works Team®.
