THE PRESIDENT

Katherine A. Rowe President

On February 20, 2018, William & Mary’s Board of Visitors unanimously elected Katherine A. Rowe as the 28th president of the university.

Rowe is deeply interested in design thinking, entrepreneurship and the digital humanities and is nationally recognized as an innovator in higher education. She began on July 1, 2018 and was inaugurated on February 8, 2019.

Under her leadership, William & Mary has advanced a whole-institution approach to learning through a number of initiatives. These include a central Entrepreneurship Hub, a Studio for Teaching & Learning Innovation, W&M’s first long-range Sustainability Plan and a university-wide approach to diversity and inclusion. William & Mary successfully closed its For the Bold campaign in June 2020, raising just over $1 billion.

During her first year, Rowe convened a series of university-wide conversations Thinking Forward to the 20-year future of knowledge, work and service. These discussions shaped William & Mary’s strategic planning effort, currently underway.

In the first phase of planning, the university community crafted William & Mary’s first-ever statement of shared values.

Previously, Rowe served as provost and dean of faculty at Smith College in Massachusetts. Rowe led academic strategy and planning, overseeing all academic operations.

During her tenure, Smith launched a design thinking curriculum, greatly increased diversity in faculty hiring and established one of the first statistical and data sciences majors at a liberal arts college (and the first at a women’s college). Rowe also served

as Smith’s interim vice president for inclusion, diversity and equity.

Rowe is cofounder and former CEO of Luminary Digital Media, which developed a series of educational apps enhancing student engagement and learning of classic Shakespearean texts.

Rowe earned a bachelor’s degree in English and American literature from Carleton College and a master’s and a Ph.D. in English and American literature from Harvard.

She has completed graduate work in Cinema and Media Studies at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts. Her areas of research and scholarship include Shakespeare, Milton, Spenser, Medieval and Renaissance drama and media history.

Rowe spent 16 years at Bryn Mawr College as an English professor, department chair and director of the Katharine Houghton Hepburn Center for leadership and public engagement. She was awarded the Rosalyn R. Schwartz Teaching Prize for Excellence and Innovation in 2011. Rowe also directed two collaborative programs with Haverford and Swarthmore, Tri-Co Digital Humanities and the Mellon Tri-College Faculty Forum. Before that, she was assistant professor of English at Yale.

Rowe has published three books: New Wave Shakespeare on Screen with Thomas Cartelli (Polity Press, 2007), Reading the Early Modern Passions: Essays in the Cultural History of Emotion as co-editor (Penn Press, 2004) and Dead Hands: Fictions of Agency, Renaissance to Modern (Stanford, 2000). She also has editing credits in the Cambridge Guide to the Worlds of Shakespeare and introduced G.B. Evans’ The Tragedy of Macbeth.

6

The Cambridge Guide to the Worlds of Shakespeare, with more than 350 scholarly contributors from five continents, was honored in 2016 by the American Association of Publishers with two PROSE awards, considered the most prestigious in the publishing industry, for excellence in reference works and multi-volume reference in the humanities and social sciences.

This international collaboration was also recognized in 2016 by the Library Journal for outstanding print reference work for the Cambridge Guide as well as the American Library Association’s outstanding academic title.

Rowe serves on the Northern Virginia Technology Council and is a past president of the Shakespeare Association of America. She is also a past member of Harvard’s Board of Overseers’ Visiting Committee of the Library and the Executive Committee of the American Council of Learned Societies. She has held memberships and other service positions in the Modern Language Association, International Shakespeare Association and Society for Cinema and Media Studies.

In 2020, Diverse: Issues in Higher Education named Rowe one of the top 35 women in higher education.

Rowe has spent more than a decade coaching Ultimate Frisbee and has led multiple teams to state championships in Pennsylvania. She was a World Ultimate Club Finalist and a Women’s Nationals Finalist.

She also co-founded the nonprofit Boston Ultimate Disc Alliance and the Carleton College women’s Ultimate team.

Rowe shares her love of Ultimate with her spouse, Bruce Jacobson.

They have two adult children, Daniel and Beah.

Robert M. Gates ‘65, L.H.D. ‘98 Chancellor

Robert M. Gates ‘65, L.H.D. ‘98, was named twenty-fourth Chancellor of William & Mary by the Board of Visitors at his investiture on February 3, 2012. He succeeded Sandra Day O’Connor, former Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court, who was appointed in 2005. He was re-invested for a second term on February 8, 2019.

Chancellor Gates is the first alumnus to hold this ceremonial position in William & Mary’s modern era. As U.S. Secretary of Defense from 2006 to 2011, he became the only person in American history to serve under presidents from different political parties. In his words, William & Mary instilled in him “a calling to serve—a sense of duty to community and country that this college has sought to instill in each generation of students for more than 300 years.”

Chancellor Gates began a career in public service soon after his graduation from William & Mary.

In 1966, he joined the Central Intelligence Agency, working for six presidents during nearly 27 years as an intelligence officer. During this period, he was a National Security Council staff member for nine years.

Gates is the only career officer in the CIA’s history to rise from being an entry-level employee to become the agency’s director, a post he held from 1991 to 1993. He was Deputy Director of the CIA from 1986 until 1989 and Assistant to the President and Deputy National Security Adviser at the White House for President George H. W. Bush from January 1989 until November 1991.

On December 18, 2006, Gates took office as the nation’s 22nd Secretary of Defense under President George W. Bush. When inaugurated in January 2009, President Barack

Obama asked Gates to continue in office.

In June 2011, Gates retired as Secretary of Defense. At the farewell ceremony, President Obama awarded him the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the country’s highest civilian honor. He has also received the National Security Medal and the Presidential Citizens Medal.

Gates was awarded the National Intelligence Distinguished Service Medal twice and the Distinguished Intelligence Medal, the CIA’s highest award, three times.

Gates’ first book, From the Shadows: The Ultimate Insider’s Story of Five Presidents and How They Won the Cold War, was published in 1996. In 2014, he published his second book, Duty: Memoirs of a Secretary at War, which was described as “one of the best Washington memoirs ever” in the New York Times and topped its list of best-selling non-fiction books for five consecutive weeks. His third book, A Passion for Leadership: Lessons on Change and Reform from Fifty Years of Public Service, was published in 2016.

A history major at William & Mary, Gates was an active member of Alpha Phi Omega, a service organization that he led as a senior. Gates was also a dormitory manager and orientation aide as well as the business manager of the William & Mary Review, a literary and art magazine. At graduation, he received the Algernon Sydney Sullivan Award, given to honor splendid characteristics of heart, mind and helpfulness to others.

Chancellor Gates’ ties to his alma mater run deep. He has been a trustee of the William & Mary Foundation Board and spoke at Charter Day in 1998 and again in 2013 as well as at Commencement in 2007. He received an honorary Doctorate of Humane Letters from the university in 1998 and the Alumni Medallion, the Alumni Association’s highest honor, in 2000.

A native of Kansas, Gates earned his master’s degree in history from Indiana University and a doctorate in Russian and Soviet history from Georgetown University. From 2002 until 2006, he was president of Texas A&M University. An Eagle Scout himself, Gates was elected to a two-year term as national president of the Boy Scouts of America in 2014. Bob and his wife, Becky, live in Washington state.

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS

Brian Mann

W&M Director of Athletics

William & Mary announced Brian Mann as the university’s director of athletics on June 23, 2021. Mann has 18 years of experience in intercollegiate athletics, the private sector and professional sports and was most recently the senior associate athletics director at the University of California, Berkeley.

“With the selection of Brian Mann as William & Mary’s next director of athletics, the university will benefit greatly from his exceptional professional and personal leadership experiences in intercollegiate athletics.

He has a wonderful habit of exceeding goals at top institutions, which also is a hallmark at William & Mary,” said President Rowe at the time of his hiring.

Mann is responsible for the daily operations of the athletics department and its approximately 500 student-athletes and 120 coaches and staff. He will oversee a departmental budget of nearly $30 million and the university’s 23 Division I varsity sports.

While he joined W&M Athletics in 2021, Mann is not a newcomer when it comes to William & Mary. “Many years ago, I toured the campus with

a friend. I fell in love right then and I’ve been keeping an eye on William & Mary ever since,” he said. “I am so grateful to President Rowe and the search committee for giving me this incredible opportunity.”

The impact of a student-athlete’s experience is intensely personal, said Mann. “While my parents weren’t able to secure their degrees, they instilled in their five children the importance of higher education. I know how difficult it is to earn a college degree, especially at an institution with the rigorous standards of a Public Ivy. Being a former student-athlete, I also understand the commitment, discipline and hard work the Tribe’s student-athletes demonstrate every day.”

“There are challenges ahead for all public institutions,” he continued, “but what I truly believe is that William & Mary is doing the hard work now that will position us for a strong and successful future. Words cannot describe how excited I am to be part of that future.”

As chief development officer/senior associate athletics director at UC Berkeley, Mann was the architect for the athlet-

9

ics department’s $350 million portion of the university’s $6 billion campaign. He helped orchestrate a $12.5 million gift to create a new student-athlete development program, a $10.8 million bequest in support of women’s athletics and the first-ever head coach endowment for a women’s sport at Berkeley. He had sport oversight of the men’s basketball team and was a key contributor to the department’s ongoing strategic plan.

According to Jim Knowlton, director of athletics at Berkeley, “Brian has been a critical leader in Cal Athletics during his time with us in Berkeley. He is an exceptional teammate whose values and vision truly embody what Cal Athletics and UC Berkeley are all about. We are excited for this opportunity for Brian, Hilary and their young son, Russell, and we know that he is truly going to bring excellence to William & Mary. William & Mary is lucky to have a leader of such quality.”

Prior to his stint at UC Berkeley, Mann was chief development officer and senior associate athletics director at Rice, where he was responsible for all fundraising for the Owls’ athletics programs. He also was the single contact between athletics and the office of admission for all 16 sports.

Mann got his start in athletics at Dartmouth College, his alma mater, where he served as director of football operations and began his work in fundraising. Mann holds bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Dartmouth, where he played quarterback. His 5,912 career passing yards are third on the Big Green’s all-time list. Before beginning his career in academia, Mann played professional football for the L.A. Avengers of the Arena Football League.

Tremendously successful and widely respected, Mike London is in his third year as head coach of the William & Mary football program.

Although the COVID-19 global pandemic limited last season’s campaign to a three-game slate during the spring, London successfully guided the program through the challenges. A pair of standouts – left tackle Andrew Trainer and defensive end Will Kiely – both earned all-conference honors, while standout freshman running back Malachi Imoh garnered all-state distinction.

The team also continued its tradition of academic excellence, as a program-record 69 players earned CAA Commissioner’s Academic Honor Roll Accolades during the fall semester.

London’s first season leading the Tribe provided a glimpse of the program’s bright future, as the squad concluded the 2019 campaign with wins in three of its final four games – including a Capital Cup victory at long-time rival Richmond in the season finale. In addition to helping five W&M standouts earn all-conference honors, defensive tackle Bill Murray garnered All-America distinction and signed a free agent contract with the New England Patriots. Additionally, four members of the squad earned Freshman All-America honors.

Under London’s leadership, the Tribe also dramatically improved in a number of offensive statistical categories during his first season in Williamsburg. In addition to nearly doubling its scoring production from the previous year (25.2), W&M increased its total offense by nearly 100 yards per game. The Tribe also increased its rushing average by more than 130 yards per contest and more than quadrupled its rushing touchdown total (26) – an impressive figure that ranked just outside the program’s all-time top10 list.

The Tribe also excelled academically under London’s leadership, as a then-program-record 51 student-athletes earned CAA Commissioner’s Academic Honor Roll distinction during the spring semester.

London, a former assistant under longtime Tribe head coach Jimmye Laycock, returned to Williamsburg with an impressive list of accomplishments as a head coach that includes winning a national title at the University of Richmond (2008) and earning Atlantic Coast Conference Coach of the Year distinction at the University of Virginia (2011).

Howard University’s head coach

11

from 2017-18, London’s tenure leading the Bison was highlighted with his selection as a finalist for the 2017 STATS Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) Eddie Robinson Award, which is bestowed upon the nation’s top head coach.

Additionally, he earned the 2017 American Football Coaches Association (AFCA) Regional Coach of the Year award after guiding Howard to a 6-2 conference record – the program’s first winning season since 2012. His inaugural campaign at HU featured a season-opening win at UNLV, which ESPN lauded as one of college football’s greatest upsets.

Prior to his two-year stint at HU, London served as an associate head coach/defensive line coach at the University of Maryland in 2016 where he helped lead the Terps to an appearance in the Quick Lane Bowl.

In addition to garnering ACC Coach of the Year honors at UVA in 2011, London led the Cavaliers to the Chick-Fil-A Bowl. En route to earning the postseason bowl bid, he guided UVA to road wins at Miami and Florida State – becoming the first program in the nation to accomplish the feat in the same season.

London gained his first head coaching experience at Richmond, his alma mater, where he amassed a 24-5 record and guided the Spiders to the 2008 FCS national title during his initial campaign. His efforts were recognized by the AFCA, which selected him as the FCS National Coach of the Year.

London landed the head coaching job at UR after an exceptional two-year stint as UVA’s defensive coordinator (2006-07). During his first season, the Cavaliers allowed just 289.5 yards per game – the program’s best figure in 27 years.

London oversaw the development of an outstanding group of All-ACC honorees, highlighted by 2007 unanimous All-America standout Chris Long, who was the second overall pick in the 2008 NFL Draft.

London graduated from UR in 1983 with a bachelor’s degree in sociology and a year later earned a degree in law enforcement from the Richmond Police Academy.

London and his wife, Regina, have four children: daughters Ticynn, Jaicyn and Madicyn and son Korben. He has three children from a previous marriage: sons Michael Jr. and Brandon, and daughter Kristen.

First and 10 After having its four-game winning streak snapped at Maine last weekend, William & Mary will look to bounce back when it hosts Towson at Zable Stadium on Saturday at 3:30 p.m. The contest will be televised by Cox YurView, while a video stream will be available at FloFootball.com.

W&M enters Saturday’s game with a 4-2 record overall and a 2-1 mark in conference play. W&M boasts one of the nation’s top rushing attacks and currently leads the Colonial Athletic Association with 189.7 yards per game on the ground. Additionally, despite using a different starting lineup at offensive line every game this season, W&M ranks tied for seventh nationally with just five sacks allowed this season. Defensively, W&M ranks third in the conference and 25th in the country in sacks with 2.67

per contest and has generated at least one turnover in five straight games.

Towson has won its last two contests, including a 28-7 win against No. 12/14 Rhode Island in its last outing, and owns a 3-3 overall record and a 2-1 mark in conference play.

The Tigers are averaging just 297.0 total yards per game, which includes just 90.8 yards per game on the ground.

However, the defense is coming off an outstanding performance in last week’s win against URI in which it limited the Rams to just 162 total yards. Linebacker Christian Dixon highlighted the effort and was selected as the CAA Defensive Player of the Week after totaling 11 tackles, 2.0 sacks and 4.0 TFL.

Series History Saturday’s game will mark the 17th meeting between W&M and Towson, as the Tribe won the initial seven meetings before losing seven of the last 10 matchups.

The Tribe owns a 5-4 record against the Tigers at Zable Stadium.

Clear Winner Many of the previous contests between W&M and Towson have been lopsided, as 12 of the 16 meetings have been decided by at least 10 points.

Stopping the Run is Key A key to earning a victory against Towson has been stopping the Tigers’ rushing attack. In W&M’s nine victories against Towson, it has al-

RB Donavyn Lester rushed for a game-high 112 yards on 13 carries in last week’s game at Maine, marking the second time this season he has rushed for more than 100 yards.

W&M TRIBE FOOTBALL

GAME NOTES lowed just 111.1 rushing yards per game. Conversely, the Tribe has allowed 226.1 yards per game on the ground in its seven losses to Towson.

Additionally, Towson totaled just one rushing touchdown in its first six matchups versus W&M as league foes, which were all Tribe victories.

Winning Streak Snapped Although W&M had its four-game winning streak snapped with a 27-16 loss at Maine last Saturday, the impressive stretch marked the program’s longest winning streak since rattling off six straight victories in 2015.

Additionally, the 2-0 start in conference play marked W&M’s best league start since 2004.

W&M’S 4-1 overall record was program’s best start since 2014 when it opened the season with an identical record.

Sign of Good Things to Come The Tribe’s victory at Elon in its conference opener may indicate a sign of good things to come this season. During the previous 28 seasons, W&M has averaged nearly nine wins (8.7) in the nine years it has started the league slate with a victory (the Tribe’s combined winning percentage for those 10 seasons is .702, 87-37). Additionally, W&M has never failed to win less than seven games during a season in which it started conference play with a victory. Six of the program’s seven NCAA playoff appearances since 1993 have come in seasons that have started with a victory in conference play.

Conversely, in the 17 seasons W&M has lost its conference opener it has averaged 5.2 wins for a .468 winning percentage (89-101). The 2010 season marked the only time during the 28-year stretch that W&M had lost its conference opener and won more than seven games.

Trending Upwards After being shutout at Virginia in its season opener, W&M is averaging 26.4 points per game in its last five contests.

About the Tigers

Towson has won its last two contests, including a 28-7 win against No. 12/14 Rhode Island in its last outing, and owns a 3-3 overall record and a 2-1 mark in conference play. The Tigers are averaging just 297.0 total yards per game, which includes just 90.8 yards per game on the ground. However, the defense is coming off an outstanding performance in last week’s win against URI in which it limited the Rams to just 162 total yards.

Last Meeting - Towson 31, W&M 10

WILLIAMSBURG, Va. (11/16/19) -- William & Mary played No. 20/21 Towson even in second half but was unable to overcome a three-touchdown halftime deficit, as its winning streak was snapped by the Tigers, 31-10, on Senior Day at Zable Stadium.

Although Towson held a narrow edge in passing yards (191-189), the Tigers owned a 237-87 advantage on the ground and controlled the time of possession, 39:18-20:42.

Kane Everson led the Tribe offensively with six catches for 109 yards, while Zach Burdick posted two receptions for 53 yards and completed a 62-yard strike to Everson.

ASSISTANT COACHES

Vincent Brown

Christian Taylor

Gordon Sammis

Vincent Brown is in his third season as the Tribe’s associate head coach/ defensive coordinator and linebackers coach.

Although the COVID-19 global pandemic limited last season’s campaign to a three-game slate during the spring, Brown successfully helped guide the program through the challenges.

W&M’s defense allowed just 322.0 yards per game last season, including just 167.7 yards per contest through the air. Highlighting the individual accolades was standout defensive end Will Kiely who earned secondteam all-conference honors.

Brown’s first season leading W&M’s defense provided a number of highlights, as his unit established itself among the league’s best in creating turnovers. In addition to leading the Colonial Athletic Association with 2.0 forced turnovers per game, the Tribe’s 24 forced turnovers marked the program’s highest total since 2009.

W&M’s defense also nearly broke into the program’s single-season top-10 lists in multiple categories.

Its 30 sacks were just one shy, while its rushing defense (152.9) was just 3.0 yards from ranking among the program’s very best.

Bill Murray highlighted the individual Tribe standouts who benefited from Brown’s tutelage, as the standout defensive tackle earned first-team All-America honors from Hero Sports and signed a free agent contract with the New England Patriots.

Brown, a former All-Pro linebacker for the New England Patriots, took over the Tribe’s defense in 2019 after stints as a coordinator at Howard University and UConn. He also coached at the University of Virginia and with the Dallas Cowboys.

A three-time All-Pro linebacker for the New England Patriots (1991, 1992, 1993), Brown was selected in the second round of the 1988 NFL draft.

He went on to start 103 of 123 games for the Patriots before retiring in 1995.

Brown and his wife, Chandra, have four children: Dane, Vincent II, Raven and Jorian.

Following an unprecedented year in which the COVID-19 global pandemic limited last season’s campaign to a three-game slate during the spring, Christian Taylor returns for his second season as the Tribe’s offensive coordinator and running backs coach.

While the unique season provided challenges to installing a new offensive system, it also enabled the unit to begin building a foundation upon which future success will be realized. In addition to ranking fourth in the Colonial Athletic Association in passing efficiency (133.1), a pair of standouts earned postseason honors – left tackle Andrew Trainer (All-CAA Second Team) and running back Malachi Imoh (VaSID All-State Second Team).

After leading one of the nation’s most productive offensive units at the University of San Diego from 2018-19, Taylor returned to his alma mater in the winter of 2020.

Taylor, who played quarterback at W&M from 2002-06 and was an assistant coach on the Tribe’s staff for two seasons (2008-09), returned to Williamsburg with impressive credentials that includes being selected as a finalist as the 2018 FCS Coordinator of the Year.

Under Taylor’s direction, USD ranked among the nation’s top 10 in scoring offense (10th in 2018; 5th in 2019) and was sixth in total offense in 2019. Additionally, the Toreors ranked second nationally in passing offense in 2018 and 11th in 2019, as they earned earn a pair of conference championships and FCS Playoff berths.

Taylor began his coaching career as W&M’s tight ends coach in 2008 before leading the Tribe’s quarterbacks in 2009, helping lead the squad earn a FCS Playoff semifinal appearance.

Originally from Yorktown, Virginia, Taylor attended Grafton High School.

He is married to Shay Timms and they have two sons, Anthony and Tyler. Shay earned her undergraduate degree (BBA ‘96) and Law degree (JD ‘99) from USD.

Gordon Sammis is in his third season at William & Mary as the offensive line coach and his second as the run game coordinator.

Although the COVID-19 global pandemic limited last season’s campaign to a three-game slate during the spring, Sammis’ unit posted a successful year and was responsible for much of the offensive production. Left tackle Andrew Trainer highlighted the group’s individual accolades and earned second-team all-conference honors.

Under Sammis’ direction, the Tribe’s offensive line was a catalyst for W&M’s tremendous improvement in 2019. In addition to nearly doubling its scoring output compared to 2018, W&M averaged nearly 100 more total yards per game than it did in the season prior to Sammis’ arrival. The offensive line’s play was especially effective in boosting the Tribe’s rushing attack, which increased its production on the ground by more than 130 yards per game and scored 21 more rushing touchdowns than the squad’s 2018 figures. Additionally, the Tribe’s 26 rushing touchdowns was just one shy of breaking into the program’s single-season top-10 list, while its 462 rushing yards in the win against Rhode Island set a singlegame school record.

Highlighting the individuals who benefited from Sammis’ tutelage was Mark Williamson, who garnered all-conference honors as the Tribe’s starting right guard.

Sammis successful coaching career has also included stints at Lafayette College, VMI and Columbia University.

A 2007 University of Virginia graduate, Sammis earned a degree in Government after a playing career as an offensive guard that spanned from 2003-07.

Mike London Jr.

Matt Johns

Ras-I Dowling

Mike London Jr. is in his third season at William & Mary as the wide receivers coach and his second as the video coordinator.

Although the COVID-19 global pandemic limited last season’s campaign to a three-game slate during the spring, London successfully continued developing his unit despite the challenges. Highlighting the group was Cole Blackman, a transfer who made an immediate impact and ranked among the conference’s top 10 in receiving yards per game, yards per catch and receptions per game.

London led a dynamic and productive group of wideouts during his initial season with the Tribe in 2019, as multiple members of the unit flourished under his leadership. True freshman Kane Everson highlighted the position group and earned Freshman All-America honors after setting true freshman single-season school records for catches (46) and receiving yards (585). Zach Burdick also posted a breakout season under London’s tutelage and ranked third in the conference and 16th nationally with 19.3 yards per catch.

In addition to the individual success, W&M’s receivers contributed to the team’s dramatic improvement offensively in which it nearly double its scoring output and averaged nearly 100 more total yards per game from the previous season.

London Jr. joined the Tribe’s staff after a tremendously successful 2018 season as Howard University’s wide receivers coach where he helped the Bison rank fourth nationally in yards per catch (17.27) and 16th in passing offense (278.0).

In addition to producing a pair of first-team All-MEAC wideouts, Jequez Ezzard ranked seventh nationally in receiving yards per game (106.4) and 11th in receiving touchdowns (12).

Prior to leading HU’s receiving corps, London Jr. coached at the prep level at Paramus Catholic High School (Paramus, N.J.) as the wide receivers coach and at AmherstPelham Regional (Amherst, Mass.) as the offensive coordinator.

Matt Johns is in his third year as an assistant on William & Mary’s staff and his second coaching the quarterbacks after working with the inside wide receivers/tight ends in 2019.

Although the COVID-19 global pandemic limited last season’s campaign to a three-game slate during the spring, Johns’ impact was evident in the team’s improved passing efficiency (133.1), which catapulted from 111.2 the previous year, and the continued development of standout quarterback Hollis Mathis.

One of the league’s most dynamic quarterbacks, Mathis led the CAA in total offense per game (232.0).

Additionally, he ranked second in yards per completion (12.2), third in passing yards per game (189.5) and completion percentage (60.8), and fourth in passing efficiency (136.1).

During Johns’ first year at W&M, his group contributed to the team’s dramatic improvement offensively in which it nearly double its scoring output and averaged nearly 100 more total yards per game from the previous season.

A former starting quarterback at the University of Virginia, Johns joined the Tribe’s staff after serving as a graduate assistant working with the Cavaliers’ defense in 2018.

En route to helping Virginia post an 8-5 record, which included a shutout victory against South Carolina in the Belk Bowl, UVA’s defense produced three All-Atlantic Coast Conference selections. Additionally, the Cavaliers ranked 11th nationally in interceptions (17), 16th in passing yards allowed per game (183.0) and 21st in scoring defense (20.1).

Prior to joining the Cavaliers’ staff, Johns served as the quarterbacks coach at Central Bucks South High School in 2017.

A four-year letterwinner at Virginia, Johns finished his career ranked 11th on the program’s career passing list (4,233) and sixth in passing touchdowns (30) and 200-yard passing games (11).

Ras-I Dowling is in his third season as an assistant at William & Mary and his second as the secondary coach after working with the cornerbacks in 2019.

Although the COVID-19 global pandemic limited last season’s campaign to a three-game slate during the spring, Dowling’s unit emerged as one of the league’s best and ranked fourth in the conference in passing defense (167.7).

Dowling was instrumental in the success of the Tribe’s cornerbacks in 2019, as Corey Parker and Latrelle Smith, a true freshman, combined to be one of the conference’s top tandems. In addition to recording four interceptions, the duo combined to total 23 passes defended. Additionally, Parker ranked fourth in the conference with 1.17 PBU per game.

Dowling joined London at W&M after serving on his staff at Howard the previous two seasons.

After working as a defensive quality control coach on HU’s 2017 squad that posted a 7-4 overall record and a 6-2 mark in league play, Dowling was promoted to cornerbacks coach in 2018.

Drafted by Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots with the 33rd overall pick in the 2011 NFL Draft, Dowling became the highest selected defensive back to ever play at the University of Virginia.

During his five years in the league, Dowling was a member of two Super Bowl teams – New England Patriots (2011) and Carolina Panthers (2015).

He also spent time with the New York Jets and the Oakland Raiders.

Dowling excelled as a standout player under London’s tutelage at UVA where he garnered All-America honors in 2010 and earned All-ACC accolades three times. Additionally, he served as a team captain and was a member of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA).

Keenan Carter is in his third season

as the Tribe’s defensive line coach.

Carter has made a tremendous impact leading W&M’s defensive front and has produced an all-conference standout during each of his first two seasons. Will Kiely became the latest honoree, as he garnered secondteam distinction last year.

During Carter’s first season with the Tribe, his unit was instrumental in helping the team post 30 sacks and limit opposing rushing attacks to just 152.9 yards per game on the ground.

Both figures ranked just outside the program’s all-time top-10 lists.

Additionally, the Tribe ranked third in the CAA in TFL (82).

In that role, he performed a wide range of coaching duties, which included assisting with management of winter workouts and spring practice, as well as preparing practice tape analysis, self-scouting reports and development of spring practice plans.

A three-year starter, Revell was voted a team captain during his senior season. Although he suffered a broken leg during the 2014 season opener at Virginia Tech, he returned late in the campaign and earned starts in the final two games.

Revell graduated from W&M with a bachelor’s degree in kinesiology and health sciences and a minor in sociology.

He is married to former W&M women’s basketball team captain Victoria (Willems) Revell.

Darryl Blackstock is in his third season as an assistant on William & Mary’s staff and his second working with the outside linebackers.

Blackstock began his coaching career with the Tribe as a defensive assistant working primarily with the defensive line in 2019.

In 2019, Blackstock assisted Keenan Carter’s highly successful unit and worked primarily with the defensive ends. The Tribe’s defense totaled 30 sacks and limited the opposition to just 152.9 rushing yards per game, as both figures ranked just outside the program’s all-time top-10 lists.

Jack Armstrong, a former team captain and wide receiver at William & Mary (2014-18), is in his second season as a full-time assistant and works with the tight ends.

Armstrong earned the promotion prior to the 2020 season after serving as an offensive analyst for the Tribe the previous year.

Although the COVID-19 global pandemic limited last season’s campaign to a three-game slate during the spring, Armstrong was instrumental in the development of his position group. Anthony Mague was indicative of that success, as he posted a breakout season and emerged as the squad’s second-leading receiver.

Armstrong’s first season on the staff in 2019 was an incredibly productive year for the Tribe. While W&M relied heavily on a talented true freshman class that included its starting quarterback, its leading receiver and three of its top four rushers, the offense nearly doubled its scoring output from the prior season – improving from 13.6 points/game in 2018 to 25.2 points/ game in 2019. Additionally, W&M’s total yardage per game catapulted by nearly 100 yards per contest.

Nowhere was the dramatic progress more evident than in W&M’s rushing attack where it increased its production on the ground by more than 130 yards per game and scored 21 more rushing touchdowns than the squad’s 2018 figures. Additionally, the Tribe’s 26 rushing touchdowns was just one shy of breaking into the program’s single-season top-10 list, while its 462 rushing yards in the win against Rhode Island set a singlegame school record.

Mike Marquez enters his third season on William & Mary’s coaching staff as a defensive analyst.

Marquez’s primary responsibilities with the Tribe include providing opponent offensive breakdowns, data analytics and scouting reports for the defensive coordinator. Additionally, he assists the special teams coordinator with specialist, scout teams, drills, kicking charts and cutups.

Last spring, W&M’s defense allowed just 322.0 yards per game, including just 167.7 yards per contest through the air.

During his first season at W&M in 2019, the Tribe’s defense led the Colonial Athletic Association with 2.0 forced turnovers per game, while its 24 forced turnovers marked the program’s highest total since 2009.

W&M’s defense also nearly broke into the program’s single-season top10 lists in multiple categories during the 2019 campaign. Its 30 sacks were just one shy, while its rushing defense (152.9) was just 3.0 yards from ranking among the program’s very best.

The special teams units also excelled in 2019, as W&M ranked among the top 10 nationally in blocked kicks (6) and kickoff return average (23.7).

Marquez joined the Tribe’s staff following a four-year stint at Hampden-Sydney College (2015-18) where he worked with the defensive backs and served as an assistant strength & conditioning coaching.

In addition to mentoring more than 30 all-conference selections, he helped lead the Tigers to a pair of Old Dominion Athletic Conference runner-up finishes.

Prior to entering the coaching ranks, Marquez played cornerback and special teams at HampdenSydney from 2012-14 where he helped the Tigers claim back-to-back ODAC titles in 2013 and 2014.

Marquez earned his undergraduate degree in economics from HampdenSydney in 2015 and a business certificate from the UVA McIntire School of Commerce in 2016.

HEYFARL W&M FOOTBALL WALK-ON HALL OF FAME

Sean McDermott ‘98 Buffalo Bills Head Coach

HEYFARL SUPPORTER

HEYFARL (Hundred Each Year for a Rising Letterman) has been scoring big for the Tribe Football Program, one small gift at a time.

The brainchild of former Tribe standout Tom Mikula ’48, the initiative has expanded from just a good idea in the early 1990s to being able to provide as many as four scholarships a season to W&M football players who have entered school as walk-ons.

Mikula partnered with two fellow football players, and the founders of the William & Mary Football Club, in Steve McNamee ’81 and Duane Ragsdale ’81 to bring his vision to reality. In just two decades, the group has raised more than $2 million for the football program and has awarded 81 scholarships.

In all, approximately 800 former players make an annual gift to HEYFARL and their support has literally changed the trajectory of many dozens of players’ lives, and that of their families, by providing crucial financial support.

While there are many ways to be involved, and many levels of support are available, the bulk of giving has come in at $100 at a time. This relatively small sum has made a huge impact in the Tribe football program, as former walk-ons have made profound contributions to the team’s successes.
