#SACFB The South Atlantic Conference is in its 41st 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. 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 11 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.; 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 in Charlotte, N.C.; Tusculum College in Greeneville, Tenn.; Wingate University in Wingate, N.C.; and

Patrick Britz Commissioner

Patrick Britz is currently in his 10th 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 expanded to its largest membership ever with 12 (currently at 11) 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. This number will increase to 20 in 2017-18 when the league will add men’s and women’s indoor track and field as championship sports. 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. Wingate claimed the SAC’s first ever NCAA national championship in men’s soccer in the fall of 2016. Further, in the past four years, SAC teams from four different sports and four different schools have also advanced to the final game of the NCAA Championship – Lenoir-Rhyne football and Carson-Newman men’s soccer in 2013, Catawba baseball in 2015 and Lincoln Memorial men’s basketball in 2016. Finally, SAC schools have won 20 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 began 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. The league also began awarding an Elite 18 award in 2016-17 at each championship to the participating student-athlete with the highest cumulative GPA similar to the NCAA’s Elite 90 award. He also secured a title sponsor – Pilot Flying J - for the conference baseball championship for 2016 through 2018. In addition to Pilot Flying J, Britz has brokered numerous corporate sponsorship agreements including AstroTurf, BB&T Insurance, Wilson Sporting Goods, Hasty Awards and Immersion Media. Further, he has maintained long-standing agreements with corporate partners such as Coleman Lew & Associates and McMillan Pazdan Smith.

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 joining 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.

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 in his fourth year on the NCAA Division II Championships Committee, second year on the NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Panel and also is chair of the Division II CCA National Letter of Intent Review Committee. He currently serves as the President for the Division II Collegiate Commissioners Association. In addition, he was the lone Division II representative on the 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 (5) and Delaney (4) and one son, Zach (2).

Head Coach Mike Turner - 1st Season Mike Turner is the architect of one of the most potent offenses in college football and Carson-Newman’s 18th head football coach. He was named the Eagles’ head man on Nov. 15, 2016 following Ken Sparks’ retirement. He is in his first season as head coach but his 34th with the program. Over the last eight easons, Turner has led the Eagles to an unprecedented run at the top of the NCAA offensive rankings. Since 2007, the Carson-Newman offense has averaged 330.6 yards rushing per game and scored an average of 38.4 points. Over those eight seasons, Carson-Newman has produced an All-American offensive lineman seven times. The Eagles have also been lauded with the Rimington Award winner, which goes to the best center in all Division II.

Turner returned to the Eagles as offensive coordinator in 1987, helping spark another run of championships. Turner left C-N for a second time to take over the football program at Science Hill High School in 1992. Returning to Carson-Newman in 1994 as the chief fundraiser for the Eagle Club, Turner once again took command of the Eagles offense in 1995. Turner was named the AFCA Division II Assistant Coach of the Year in 2003. He and his wife, Conni, reside in Jefferson City, Tenn. They have two children; Jenni and Josh.

Turner’s Career as Head Coach Year School First Year

Overall

SAC

Turner’s offense cracked the 60-point threshold on three occasions and the 50-point threshold on two more occasions. The 2015 season was tied with the 2007 team for the most 50-point games in a single year, while the trio of 60-point efforts marked the first time in school history that had ever occured. Derek Evans earned All-American honors on the offensive line en route to attaining the Rimington Trophy. Damian Baker became a consensus All-American while becoming the program’s fourth Harlon Hill Trophy finalist and its second consecutive. The 2014 season saw Carson-Newman chew up more than 350 yards on the ground a game. Turner tutored guard Robby Ignagni to All-America honors while running back Andy Hibbett became the program’s third Harlon Hill Trophy finalist. Carson-Newman ranked in the top five in the nation in rushing yards per game for a seventh consecutive year. In 2013, Turner’s offense took a turn toward the air. Quarterback De’Andre Thomas set single season records Sparks-era records for passing completions and completion percentage while the veer-option attack continued to churn up yards on the ground in a hurry to the tune of 350 yards per game. It was the sixth consecutive year the Eagles’ rushing game ranked in the top five nationally. The 2012 season turned out to be the best of the bunch for the Eagles’ ground game. C-N averaged 378.6 yards a contest and scored 52 rushing touchdowns. The yards a game led Division II and were more than any other school in all division’s save the Football Championship Subdivision’s Georgia Southern Eagles. No one in collegiate football at any level had more rushing touchdowns than the Eagles 52. Turner saw great individual success among his players in 2012. Senior center Kevin Day took home the SAC’s Jacobs Blocking Award and became the Eagles’ seventh consensus all-American. Quaterback Brandon Haywood was first team all-league and the co-offensive player of the year. Running back Brandon Baker took home all-region and all-America honors after leading the league in rushing with 122.3 yards/game. Though 2011 was a rare down season for the Eagles, Carson-Newman still finished the year as the No. 5 ranked rushing offense in the county, averaging 277.4 yards per game. The Eagles were the No. 8 redzone offense, scoring 89 percent of the time. In 2010, Carson-Newman was the second-ranked rushing attack, with 311.2 yards per game. The Eagles offensive line was ranked No. 17 in the nation in sacks allowed, surrendering on 1.18 sacks per game. Four Eagles earned All-South Atlantic Conference honors on offense, while offensive tackle Michael Tribue was named a first team All-American by Daktronics for a second consecutive season. The Eagles led NCAA Division II in rushing offense in 2009, gaining 336.7 yards per game and were the No. 8-ranked total offense with 471.9 yards per game. C-N was eighth in scoring offense (33.36 points per game) and set a single-game total offense record with 803 yards in a 70-35 victory over Tusculum College, including a school-record 671 yards on the ground. Turner’s 2007 Eagles offense was the first team in SAC history to average 49 points per conference game. His 2004 offense boasted three AllAmericans; offensive linemen Caleb Crothers and Reggie Perkins as well as former Philadelphia Eagles fullback Leonard Weaver. A 1973 graduate of C-N, Turner was a standout center for the Eagles and key member of the 1972 NAIA Champion Bowl runner-up team, the first Carson-Newman squad to reach a national title game. Turner got a chance to win those national titles when he returned to Carson-Newman, after stints as an assistant coach at Randleman (N.C.) High School, Lees-McRae College and Catawba College. Turner coached the offensive line at C-N from 1980-1984, helping the Eagles win two NAIA National Championships. In 1985-86, Turner served as offensive coordinator for the University of North Alabama, guiding the offense that finished as the NCAA Division II runner-up in 1985.

Head Coach Curtis Walker - 4th 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. 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 Mike Kellar - 2nd Year On December 22, 2015, Mike Kellar became the 21st Head Football Coach in Lenoir-Rhyne history. Kellar comes to Lenoir-Rhyne after serving four seasons (2012-15) as mentor of the Vulcans of California (Pa.) University.

The following year, California won its first PSAC Championship since 1984 and shattered the single-season school record with over 6,000 yards of total offense. Under the tutelage of Kellar, quarterback Kevin McCabe was a Harlon Hill regional finalist and became the first quarterback in school history to surpass 3,000 passing yards and 30 touchdowns.

Kellar completed his fourth season as head coach in 2015 and 10th overall as a member of the coaching staff at California University of Pennsylvania. He previously served as the team’s offensive coordinator for five years before serving as the offensive coordinator and associate head coach for offense in 2011. In four years as head coach, Kellar led the Vulcans to a 31-12 record while playing ten nationally-ranked teams. California has featured six All-Americans in that span, including offensive lineman Eric Kush, who became the second Vulcans player in recent years to be selected in the NFL Draft. In addition, defensive lineman B.J. Stevens led NCAA Division II in sacks per game in 2013 and defensive back Rontez Miles repeated as the PSAC West Defensive Player of the Year and was invited to the NFL Combine.

In all but one of Kellar’s ten years with the program, the Vulcans averaged over 30 points per game. His Vulcans offenses have helped seven players earn All-America status.

While away from the program in 2009-10, Kellar guided Concord University (W.Va.) to a 14-8 record as head coach. Prior to his arrival, the Mountain Lions managed only one win in the previous two years and hadn’t posted a winning season since 1998. In 2010, Kellar led Concord to an 8-3 overall record to mark the first eight-win season for the program since it joined NCAA Division II in 1993. Under his guidance, the Mountain Lions featured one of the most balanced offenses in the WVIAC in 2010, ranking second in passing and total offense. Concord also ranked fourth in the country by averaging almost 500 yards of offense per game. While with the Mountain Lions, Kellar mentored one of the most explosive wide receivers in the country in Thomas Mayo. A two-time All-WVIAC selection, Mayo set a school record and led the country in receiving yards per game in 2009. That season, he became the school’s first-ever Harlon Hill regional finalist and was Concord’s first All-American since 2002. In his return to the Vulcans in 2011, Kellar worked with the most prolific passing offense in school history. Quarterback Peter Lalich broke the single-season school records for attempts, completions and passing yards, averaging nearly 300 yards per game. Mayo joined Kellar at Cal U and garnered All-America honors.

Kellar’s passion for football began with his own success as a student-athlete. He was the starting quarterback at Glenville State before transferring to Fairmont State, both located in West Virginia. He earned his undergraduate degree in liberal arts from Fairmont State before receiving his master’s degree in safety management from West Virginia University. A native of West Virginia, Kellar and his wife Melissa have four children, Diedra, Jarrod, Anthony and Jacob.

Kellar has developed some of the most potent offenses in school history. In 2004 and 2005, he coached the PSAC West Offensive Player of the Year in running back Antoine Bagwell. In 2005, the Vulcans averaged over 460 yards of total offense and scored over 40 points per game. After California led the PSAC in total offense and rushing offense in 2006, Kellar directed a record-setting offense during the historic 2007 season. The Vulcans rushed for nearly 2,900 yards and totaled over 5,000 yards of offense for the first time in school history.

Head Coach Mike Kellar - 1st Year Mike Furrey, who played eight seasons in the National Football League, is in his second season as the head football coach at Limestone College. Furrey, who became the second head coach in program history on May 11, 2016, holds a career coaching record of 16-17 over three full seasons. He joined the Saints after spending two seasons as the head football coach at Kentucky Christian University followed by three years on “Doc” Holliday’s staff at Marshall University. Prior to his time in the coaching ranks, he played eight seasons in the NFL with the St. Louis Rams, the Detroit Lions, the Cleveland Browns, and the Washington Redskins.

Detroit Lions as he led the NFC with 98 receptions – a mark that set an NFL non-rookie record for most receptions in a season after having none the previous year. Furrey was named the Lions’ Co-Offensive Player of the Year after posting 1,086 receiving yards and seven touchdowns. After signing with the Indianapolis Colts as an undrafted free agent in 2000, Furrey spent one season with the Las Vegas Outlaws in the XFL before playing two years with the New York Dragons of the Arena Football League. He would then sign with the St. Louis Rams in 2003, playing in 13 games during his rookie year. He helped guide the Rams to the NFC Divisional Round as a safety a year later. Furrey, a three-time All-American at the University of Northern Iowa, will be inducted into the UNI Athletics Hall of Fame later this year. He spent his freshman season at The Ohio State University, helping to lead the Buckeyes to a thrilling 20-17 win over Arizona State in the 1997 Rose Bowl.

Furrey took over a Limestone program still in its infancy, and promptly guided the Blue and Gold to its best season in the short three-year history of the team. The Saints, who had combined for just four wins over the first two years of competition, finished with a 5-6 overall record during the 2016 campaign.

In 2007, he founded the Mike Furrey Foundation and has since raised more than $500,000 to help improve the lives of those who are hurting, hungry, hopeful and/or homeless. He also serves as the board president for Basket of Hope with former NFL coach Tony Dungy as the organization’s spokesperson.

The Saints went an impressive 4-2 on the road during the 2016 season, including wins over Lenoir-Rhyne and Catawba, the defending South Atlantic Conference Champions. The offense made tremendous strides a year ago, but it was the defensive unit that shined the brightest during Furrey’s first season.

Furrey graduated from UNI in 2000 with a Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Studies. He and his wife Koren are the proud parents of Makayla, Stone and Kanon.

Limestone led NCAA Division II with eight defensive touchdowns while the defensive unit ranked eighth in the nation with 32 turnovers gained. Junior cornerback Joshua Simmons earned All-America honors and was a finalist for the Cliff Harris Award after leading the country with three defensive touchdowns and finishing second in the DII ranks with eight interceptions. During his tenure with the Thundering Herd, Furrey helped guide the program to three straight bowl wins and the 2014 Conference USA Championship. Marshall led Conference USA in scoring offense while ranking in the Top-5 nationally in total offense during the 2013 and 2014 campaigns. Following a successful NFL playing career, Furrey was named the head coach of a struggling Kentucky Christian program in January 2011. He promptly turned the program around as the team went from 0-11 in 2010 to 7-4 and a national Top-25 ranking in 2012.

While at the helm of the Knights, he coached the Mid-South Conference Freshman Defensive Player of the Year, and a school-record 18 studentathletes were named to the Mid-South All-Conference Team. Furrey was also instrumental in raising funds to build a new stadium with a turf field at KCU. Twice nominated for the NFL Walter Payton Man of the Year Award while with the Detroit Lions, Furrey was a finalist for the prestigious award during the 2009 season as a member of the Cleveland Browns. The Walter Payton Man of the Year Award honors a player’s volunteer and charitable work as well as his excellence on the field. Furrey won the 2009 JB Award, an accolade given to those who specialize in community service by CBS studio host James Brown, and then was selected as the 2009 NFL Ed Block Courage Award recipient, an honor that highlights courage, compassion, commitment, and community service. His best year as a professional came during the 2006 season with the

The 119 wins place Clifton second in all-time wins of all SAC head coaches. He has recorded

Clifton, a veteran of 39 years, spent five years on the high school level before entering the collegiate ranks. Since joining the college ranks, Clifton has made stops at the University of South Carolina, Virginia Military Institute, Fayetteville State University, and Ferrum College. Clifton graduated from Mercer University in 1976. Clifton and his wife Joy met while they were in school together and were married in 1977. They have two children: Myriah, age 25, a graduate of Mars Hill and Cody, age 23, also a graduate Mars Hill University. The family makes their home in Mars Hill.

70 conference victories that also places him second in that category among all-time SAC head coaches.

Clifton’s Career as Head Coach

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. Under Clifton’s direction the Lions have set many individual records. Jonas Randolph rewrote the school and SAC record books. He became the South Atlantic Conference’s career rushing leader with 5,608 yards and led all NCAA divisions this season in rushing yards per game (197.27). The SAC Offensive Player of the Year, Randolph’s 2,170 yards in 2011 also set new SAC and school marks. He also had six games of 200 or more rushing yards and nine games of over 100 rushing yards this season. He was a three-time first team All-Super Region 2 honoree and was the Super Region 2 Offensive Player of the Year. Randolph finished the year with 2,170 yards rushing on a Division II-leading 366 carries and scored 18 touchdowns. He averaged more than 37 yards per game more than the next closest Division II rusher. Randolph was also named an AFCA All-American, Daktronics All-American, AP Little All-American and a USA College Sports All-American. Prior to Randolph’s era, Leon Williams was the all-time leading career rusher at Mars Hill recording 2,849 yards (1993-96) and then Travis McFadden (2000-03) surpassed his numbers in 2002 reaching 2,859 career yards. Terrance Stokes became the school’s single game rusher with 252 yards against Wingate University (2000) and the school’s single season rusher with 1,558 yards in 2000. Antione Jones later surpassed Stokes single-game performance with a 322-yard effort against Lenoir-Rhyne in 2005. Jon Richt has set new school marks in attempts in a season (290), completions in a game (28), yards passing in a single season (2,238), and touchdowns in a game (5), season (20) and career (44). Ashley Abernathy set school records in 1993 for most yards passing in a season (1,967) and total yards in a career (6,820). During the 1999 season, Khalid Abdullah recorded a game best five sacks against the University of Virginia’s College at Wise as well as a season high 15 sacks in 2000. Toy Williams tied the school record of three interceptions against Lenoir-Rhyne. During the 2001 season Maurice Jackson picked off nine interceptions that broke the existing school record held by Kevin Barnette and Abdullah set a new mark for the longest interception return of 100 yards on two occasions.

Head Coach Todd Knight - 7th Season Todd Knight is entering his ninth year at the helm of the Newberry program in 2017 having made his mark as one of the most successful coaches in program history. His 50-38 overall record makes him the secondwinningest coach in school history and the only 40game winner with a winning record in the 103 years of Newberry football. His .568 winning percentage is second in school history among coaches with 10 or more games at the helm. 2016: South Atlantic Conference Champions Knight, the 2016 South Atlantic Conference Coach of the Year, was the architect of a SAC championship team that saw the Wolves tie a school record with 10 consecutive wins to close the regular season, earn a No. 2 seed in the 2016 NCAA Division II Football Championship, compile a perfect 7-0 conference record for the first time in school history, and play two nationally-televised games.

Knight served as Newberry’s defensive coordinator from 2003-09: six seasons solely as the defensive coordinator and filling both the head coach and coordinator roles in 2009. Prior to Newberry Knight served as Assistant Head Coach and Defensive Coordinator at Charleston Southern University under David Dowd. Under Knight’s guidance, the 2001 Buccaneers’ “Blue Collar” defense achieved a No. 16 Division I-AA national ranking in pass defense and a No. 20 mark in total defense. He coached the inside linebackers in 1997 before holding the Defensive Coordinator role for five seasons. Knight moved to Charleston Southern from Gardner-Webb, his alma mater, where he coached the Runnin’ Bulldogs’ secondary from 1993-96. He also served as a Graduate Assistant at Gardner-Webb in 1989 before moving to Lees-McRae. Knight coached the Bobcats’ linebackers in 1990 before becoming Defensive Coordinator for the 1991 and 1992 seasons. Knight earned a Bachelor of Science in Physical Education at Gardner-Webb, graduating in 1989. His Master of Arts in Physical Education was awarded in 1990. Personal Knight is married to the former Tina Martin and the couple resides in Newberry. He is the proud father of his daughter, Anna, and sons, Devin and Michael Cash

The Wolves led the nation in punt return yardage allowed (10 returns for one total yard) and set school records for scoring (436 points), passing yards (3,536), completions (287), passing touchdowns (30), completion percentage (67.8), total offense (5,462 yards), all-purpose yards (6,496), total touchdowns (61), and sacks (37.5).

Knight’s Career as Head Coach

The championship marked the fourth conference crown of Knight’s career, with previous SAC titles coming in 2006 and 2008 as Newberry’s defensive coordinator and as an outside linebacker on Gardner-Webb’s 1987 team. Knight was named SAC Coach of the Year in a season that saw quarterback Raleigh Yeldell become Newberry’s first-ever finalist for the Harlon Hill Trophy, pick up Offensive Player of the Year honors from both the SAC and the Eastern College Athletic Conference, and finish eighth in SAC history with a school-record 3,418 yards of total offense. The Wolves totaled a league-high 15 all-conference selections, including six on the first-team offense and nine first-team selections overall. Newberry had three players (Yeldell, DL Jamarcus Henderson, and OL Bobby McNeil) named to various All-America teams, with five others receiving All-Super Region 2 distinction. Additionally, offensive lineman Sam Hall was named a First Team Academic All-American and won the inaugural Elite 18 award from the SAC, which honors the studentathlete with the highest GPA at the final site of competition in each of the league’s 18 sports. Hall joined Holden Beemiller on the Academic All-District team. A Legacy of Excellence In his eight years at the helm of Newberry’s program, Knight has coached a Harlon Hill Trophy finalist, three SAC Players of the Year, two ECAC Offensive Players of the Year, 16 All-Americans, 35 All-Region selections, 65 All-SAC honorees, 27 SAC Players of the Week, two Academic All-Americans, and 14 Academic All-District winners.

He also has a legacy of preparing players for the NFL. Newberry has four former players on active NFL rosters, a higher percentage of its total enrollment than any college in the nation regardless of NCAA division. 2009 SAC Defensive Player of the Year Ron Parker has started 47 of the Kansas City Chiefs’ 48 games at free safety since 2014 and has accumulated 253 career tackles, seven interceptions, and 39 passes defended in a six-year career. Edmond Robinson has appeared in 21 games as an outside linebacker for Minnesota, Brandon Bostick has two touchdowns as a tight end with Green Bay and the New York Jets, and Corey Washington is currently with Buffalo after spending his rookie season with the New York Giants in 2014. Newberry Summary The finest year of Knight’s career in 2016 led to the team’s third playoff berth in a four-season span. Newberry earned its second-ever playoff bid after a 9-2 regular season in 2013, then closed the season with four straight wins in 2015 to finish the year 7-4 and earn another trip to the postseason. Newberry has twice finished the season ranked in the final AFCApoll, closing out 2013 with a No. 23 national ranking and landing at No. 16 in 2016. The Wolves’ 31 wins from 2013-16, all under Knight, are the second-most wins in a four-year period in school history. Newberry’s 32 victories from 2006-09, the final six of which came during Knight’s first season as Head Coach following six seasons as Defensive Coordinator, are the current standard-bearer. Knight won his first game as a head coach on the road at No. 12 Valdosta State in 2009. The win over the Blazers was the first of two wins over ranked opponents in 2009. Newberry has beaten six ranked opponents during Knight’s tenure, including a 24-21 win over No. 8 UNC Pembroke in 2013 that represents the second-highest ranked team Newberry has ever defeated. Newberry was 6-4 in Knight’s first season in 2009, then went 4-6 in consecutive years and turned in a 5-6 performance in 2012 before beginning their four-year run of sustained excellence in 2013. Knight was 19-22 in his first four years as a head coach before Newberry reeled off six straight wins to begin 2013, pushing him over .500 as a head coach for good and setting the stage for Newberry’s success.

Head Coach Jerry Odom - 2nd Season Jerry Odom was named the head football coach at Tusculum on Dec. 14, 2015 becoming the 17th gridiron mentor in program history and the fourth since the reinstatement of the sport in 1991. Odom, a 25-year football coaching veteran, boasts a strong lineage of experience at the collegiate and professional ranks where he has mentored 15 NFL players and coached in five postseason bowl games including the Orange Bowl, Sugar Bowl and Outback Bowl. In his first Tusculum in 2016, the Pioneers won three of its last four games, including a 38-28 road win at defending South Atlantic Conference champion Catawba. He also closed out his inaugural TC campaign with a thrilling 31-30 overtime win over arch-rival Carson-Newman. Tusculum finished with a 4-7 overall record, but went 3-4 to finish fourth in the South Atlantic Conference standings. The Merritt Island, Florida native served six seasons as the associate head coach at NCAA-FCS Jacksonville University from 2010-2015 where he was the chief architect of some of the best defensive units in JU history. While at the Jacksonville, Florida school, Odom helped guide the Dolphins to 4719 overall record, including a pair of 9-2 campaigns in his last two years at JU.

Odom played collegiately at Florida where he was a four-year letterman at inside linebacker for the Gators from 1987-1990. He started in every game in his junior and senior campaigns on a defense that was among the nation’s top-five in total defense in 1988, 1989 and 1990. His senior squad tied for first place in the 1990 SEC standings with a 9-2 record as he led the Gators in tackles for a second consecutive season while earning All-SEC third team honors. He was an All-SEC Freshman Team selection in 1987 and was tabbed to the SEC Academic Honor Roll in 1990 while also serving as the Gators’ team captain. Odom served as a graduate assistant coach on the Florida staff in 1991 as the Gators won the SEC Championship with a 10-2 record and played in the Sugar Bowl. He has coached at various high schools in Florida and also served as a graduate assistant at Texas Christian University under Pat Sullivan. From 1992-1998, Odom played professionally with the AFL’s Orlando Predators for seven seasons as a linebacker/running back. He helped the Predators to four Arena Bowl appearances (1992, 1994, 1995, 1998) and won the title in 1998. He retired as Orlando’s career rushing yardage leader and ranked fifth in AFL history. Odom graduated from Florida in 1991 while majoring in health and human performance with a minor in education. He is married to the former Donna Carter of Charleston, South Carolina and they are the parents of two sons, Reid and Clay.

In 2015, his defense led the nation for a second consecutive year with 20 interceptions, while also forcing 10 fumbles resulting in 30 turnovers gained, the third-best tally in the country. The Dolphins finished 2015 ranked 11th in team tackles for loss, 11th in team sacks (33), 12th in passing efficiency defense (104.7), 15th in scoring defense (19.1 ppg), 17th in red zone defense (68.4%), 23rd in total defense (326.2 ypg) and 23rd in rushing defense (127.4 ypg). In 2014, Odom’s defense led the country with 24 interceptions and was the Pioneer League statistical champion for scoring defense (17.5 ppg – 6th in NCAA-FCS), passing efficiency defense (98.9 – 3rd in NCAA-FCS) and turnovers gained (33 – 2nd in NCAA-FCS). The Dolphins were also nationallyranked in total defense (334.5 ypg – 23rd in NCAA-FCS) and rushing defense (135.9 ypg – 19th in NCAA-FCS). During his tenure at Jacksonville, 47 defensive players earned All-Conference recognition, including a Pioneer League-best 10 honorees in 2015.

Odom’s Career as Head Coach Year School 2016 Tusculum

Overall 4-7

SAC 3-4

Prior to joining the JU staff, Odom was the associate head coach and special teams coordinator with the Philadelphia Soul of the Arena Football League from 2008-2009. The Soul tied the AFL single-season wins record with 17 victories, while capturing the world championship. Odom was also the head coach at Coffee County High School in Douglas, Georgia from 2005-2007. His teams posted a 22-12 record for the best three-year run in school history. After going 4-6 in his first season, the Trojans put together back-to-back nine-win campaigns for the first time ever. For his efforts, he was named the 2006 Region 1-5A Coach of the Year, which has been recognized as the toughest high school football region in the country by USA Today. From 2003-2005, Odom was the defensive coordinator/special teams coordinator at East Carolina University. While at the Greenville, North Carolina program, ECU led Conference USA in kickoff returns, punt returns and kickoff coverage. While with the Pirates, Odom also recruited the likes of running back Chris Johnson, who went on to become the NFL’s leading rusher in 2009 with the Tennessee Titans. From 2000-2002, he served as linebackers coach and special teams coordinator at the University of Florida as Odom helped lead the Gators to a top-10 ranking in total defense in each of his three seasons in Gainesville. He mentored All-Southeastern Conference linebacker Andra Davis, who finished as a national semifinalist for the 2001 Butkus Award. His linebacker corps sparked a Gator defense that was ranked 18th nationally. Florida went 28-10 during that three-year span, including a 10-3 record while capturing the 2000 SEC Championship and advanced to the Sugar Bowl. The 2001 team went 10-2 and knocked off Maryland in the Orange Bowl. Florida finished 8-5 the next year and earned a bid to the Outback Bowl.

Head Coach Joe Reich - 17th Season Wingate University head football coach Joe Reich is entering his 16th season as the Bulldogs’ leader. In addition to his myriad responsibilities as the ship’s captain, Reich coaches the running backs and oversees Wingate’s kickers, punters and long snappers. The Wingate record-holder for football coaching victories, Reich is 101-73 overall. The longest-tenured gridiron coach in school history, Reich helped Wingate compile a 6-5 overall record and a 3-4 ledger in the South Atlantic Conference during the 2015 season. Reich and the 2015 WU team bolted to a 6-1 overall record following seven games. The Bulldogs received national and regional rankings. Six players made All-SAC (including Denver Bronco signee Mathu Gibson), with running back Lawrence Pittman receiving a listing on the Harlon Hill regional ballot. Linebacker Eric Mapoles received Academic All-America® laurels for the second year. Punter Christopher Birozes joined his veteran teammate on this prestigious list. In 2014, five Wingate football student-athletes were named to the Capital One Academic All-America® NCAA Division II football teams, selected by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA). Wingate offensive lineman Will Poteat was a first team pick, while four Bulldogs received second team laurels: tight end Brandon Ellington, defensive back Jon Jimenez, linebacker Eric Mapoles and defensive lineman Nick Napolitano. The Allstate Insurance Company and the American Football Coaches Association (AFCA) named Mapoles to 2014 Allstate AFCA Good Works Team®. The 22 players honored with this distinct recognition have not only dedicated their time to succeeding on the field, but have made a commitment to enriching the lives of others while contributing to the greater good of their communities. In 2013, seven Wingate players were named to the All-SAC team. Quarterback Robbie Nallenweg was one of 28 candidates in the running for the 2013 Harlon Hill Trophy as the NCAA Division II college football Player of the Year. Ellington was named to the Capital One Academic All-America® NCAA Division II football second team in 2013. The Bulldogs were 6-5 overall (5-2 SAC) during the 2012 season. Wide receiver Chris Bowden was a consensus All-American and the SAC co-offensive Player of the Year. He advanced to the national ballot (final eight) for the Harlon Hill Award, thanks to a record-setting season. Running back Andrew Nallenweg was named to the Capital One Academic All-America® NCAA Division II football second team. His brother (Robbie) set school and conference records in his first year as Wingate’s starting quarterback. The Bulldogs earned a thrilling national television victory over CarsonNewman during the 2012 campaign. In 2011, six Wingate players earned All-SAC laurels. Bowden, Ellington and offensive lineman Mike Arndt were first team All-SAC picks and Don Hansen All-Super Region 2 honorees. For the second year in a row, quarterback Cody Haffly was a regional finalist for the Harlon Hill Award. Offensive lineman Austin Lowe was named to the Capital One Academic AllAmerica® NCAA Division II football second team.

Reich is only the fourth head coach in school history. Wingate’s 2010 senior class achieved a new school record, compiling 31 career victories, breaking the previous record of 30. The 2010 season marked the fourth consecutive year the senior class has equaled or eclipsed the previous total. The 2010 Bulldogs finished the year ranked at the end of the season for the first time ever. The 2009 Bulldogs received votes in the final AFCA poll.

In the fall of 2010, Reich led the Bulldogs to the greatest season in Wingate’s senior college football history. Wingate won the school’s first-ever SAC championship on the way to a 9-3 overall record. The nine wins are a senior college school record, along with the team’s record six wins in league play. Reich was named SAC Coach of the Year for the second time in his career. The CFL’s Montreal Alouettes invited Reich to serve as a guest coach during the summer of 2011. Reich also guided the Bulldogs to a 63-41 win over Morehouse in the first play-off game in school history. The 63 points scored by Wingate were the most by any team in the entire 2010 Division II play-offs. Wingate’s season ended in the Sweet 16, against undefeated and number one seed Albany State. In the historic 2010 season, Wingate broke 35 school records on offense and special teams. Offensively, Wingate gained 5,320 yards of total offense and scored 418 points, both school records. The Bulldogs scored 56 touchdowns in 2010, eight more than the previous record. Wingate was the only school in the nation with three different wide receivers catching 10 TD passes or more on the 2010 season.
