JOHN F. WILEY STADIUM By Danny Reed Class of 2007, Fullback (2003-06)
Over the course of more than 150 years, Waynesburg has enjoyed a bevy of athletic success, of which the football field‘s namesake, John F. Wiley, was an integral part. Dr. Wiley graduated from Waynesburg in 1941 and etched his place in the history of college football, as he was the starting fullback for the Yellow Jackets in the first-ever televised football game against Fordham University in 1939. Ten years after he graduated, Wiley returned to coach and achieved a 22-9-1 record from 1951-54. The current John F. Wiley Stadium was officially dedicated on Oct. 26, 1995, and has since received numerous renovations, making it a premier athletic site. In 1997, the Frank Wolf Fieldhouse, honoring the school’s all-time winningest coach, was constructed beyond the west end zone and houses the game day dressing room and visitor’s locker room. For the 1999 season, the stadium was renovated to hold a 4,000 seating capacity and became a five-story structure with Frank Wolf Fieldhouse was constructed in 1997. the addition of the Mo Scarry Skybox, in honor of the former coach and NFL player and coach. Scarry holds the distinction of being a defensive line coach for the 1972 Super Bowl Champion Miami Dolphins who finished 17-0, the only NFL team to ever have an undefeated season. In March of 2006, it was announced that the field’s grass surface would be uprooted for the installation of the latest FieldTurf 2 1/2” monofilament synthetic turf by Amity Asphalt Paving Inc. of Houston, Pa. The new surface was completed in time for the start of the 2006 football season. Since the field was renamed in 1995, John F. Wiley Stadium bared witness to two conference championship teams and countless record-breaking events. On Oct. 17, 1998, WaynesFieldTurf at Wiley Stadium made its debut on burg clinched a three-way September 9, 2006, against the College of Wooster. share of its first PAC Championship defeating Grove City, 33-13. Then, on Nov. 15, 2003, the Yellow Jackets clinched their first outright PAC title in school history, defeating Westminster, 34-20. The victory also earned Waynesburg its first-ever berth in the NCAA Division III national playoffs. 2016 FOOTBALL MEDIA GUIDE

JOHN F. WILEY STADIUM Individual records have also fallen, beginning with the legendary performance of Grove City’s two-time All-American fullback R.J. Bowers on Oct. 14, 2000. In that contest, Bowers broke former two-time Heisman Trophy winner Archie Griffin’s record of 31 consecutive 100-yard games, rushing 47 times for 266 yards and three touchdowns in a 32-29 victory in four overtimes. Bowers also became the NCAA’s all-time leader in rushing touchdowns with 84. Waynesburg running back Ryan Abels broke a record of his own on Sept. 23, 2006, becoming the school’s all-time leading rusher in a 29-18 win over Grove City. Abels finished his career with 3,985 yards, 688 yards more than former record-holder Mike Stout. Seven years ago, the Yellow Jackets made their own impact on both the school record books and the national statistical rankings. In 2007, running back Robert Heller set new school standards for rushing yards in a season (2,176) and touchdown runs (26). Those marks were also the best in all of Division III. On defense, defensive end Mike Czerwien rolled up a whopping 23 sacks and 34.5 tackles for loss. Both numbers were not only new school records, they also were the best in the country. Records have fallen, players have come and gone and memories have been made, making it an undeniable fact that John F. Wiley Stadium has become a definitive homefield advantage for the Yellow Jackets.
THE 12TH MAN - JACKET EXPRESS
Wiley Stadium gives Waynesburg perhaps the most unique in-game feature in the region as the Norfolk Southern frequently rolls by, affectionately nicknamed the “Jacket Express.” Not only does the express provide opposing offenses with constant headaches, but it is also indicative of the importance of the coal mining industry in southwestern Pennsylvania.

2016 SEASON OUTLOOK The loss of 15 starters from Waynesburg University’s 2014 team that went 8-3 and hosted the Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference (ECAC) Southwest Bowl was noticeable in the 2015 Yellow Jackets, who went 3-7 overall and 2-6 in Presidents’ Athletic Conference (PAC) play. This past fall marked the end of Waynesburg’s streak of nine-straight years with a .500 overall record or better. Head coach Rick Shepas, who is entering his 12th season with the Jackets, moved into the top spot in Waynesburg’s career wins list (67-47) thanks to last year’s 35-31 homecoming victory. He and his staff will look to turn those growing pains into more wins and a higher final spot in the 2016 Presidents’ Athletic Conference (PAC) standings.
QUARTERBACKS Dougherty survived his trial by fire last year and threw all but two of the Jackets’ pass attempts in 2015. He completed 191-of-318 tries (60.1 percent) for 1,872 yards, 19 touchdowns and 12 interceptions. The rookie’s biggest highlight came when he was named the Corvias Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC) Division III South Rookie of the Week after his performance during the Yellow Jackets’ 28-15 win versus Thiel.
THE OFFENSE With nine starters back from last year’s team, there will be a much more significant feeling of familiarity between the skill players. Quarterback Jake Dougherty was thrown into the fire as the first everyday freshman starter at the position in over 25 years at Waynesburg. He responded by earning honorable mention AllPAC laurels. The Jackets also bring back seven of their top nine rushers, including the top two ball carriers from 2015. Also expected to return are 11 of the squad’s top 13 receivers and three starting offensive linemen
RUNNING BACKS Waynesburg received a boost at the running back position when Jerry Lawman decided to return for a fifth year this fall. After battling a myriad of injuries over his first three seasons in Orange and Black, Lawman not only stayed healthy in 2015, but produced at a high level. The Poland, Ohio, native was named second-team All-PAC after rushing for a team-high 891 yards and eight touchdowns on 184 carries.
Waynesburg’s biggest change on offense comes on the sidelines where former player and assistant coach Chris Smithley has returned to be the team’s offensive coordinator. Smithley spent the past four years as an assistant at Washington & Jefferson, where he worked with the Presidents’ special teams and secondary. 2016 FOOTBALL MEDIA GUIDE
Waynesburg’s depth chart at quarterback looks to be filled out by senior Chris Smithley and sophomore Austin Pinkerton. The Jackets also brought in transfer Tyler Perone from Division II Seton Hill.
Lawman’s efforts spearheaded a Jacket ground attack that produced 1,258 yards and 11 touchdowns on the ground. After Dougherty, Austin Wilson may have had the most impressive freshman campaign on the Waynesburg offense. Wilson, who heads into his sophomore season, averaged 6.0 yards per carry and scored his first collegiate touchdown. He was also one of the team’s top kick returners. Sophomore Zach Helsel, senior Jared Becker, sophomore Adam Hein and 12

2016 SEASON OUTLOOK sophomore Ben Ciero also recorded carries this past fall. Senior Jake DiGuilio returns for his fourth year as a regular producer in the backfield at fullback. He has proven valuable as both a blocker and pass catcher out of the backfield. RECEIVERS While positives weren’t always easy to come by this past fall, the play of wide receiver Kevin Barnes, Jr., was certainly one of them. After coming to Waynesburg prior to kickoff of the 2013 season as a quarterback, Barnes made the move from passer to pass catcher last offseason. Barnes made the change look easy, as he led the team in catches (50), receiving yards (773), yards per catch (15.5) and touchdown catches (8). He finished the year ranked sixth in the PAC in catches per game (5.0) and fifth in receiving yards per game (77.3) on his way to being named honorable mention all-conference. Along with his top receiver in Barnes, Dougherty is also expected to welcome back his number two wide receiver in senior Tim Cooper (35 catches, 432 yards, three touchdowns) and his starting tight end, senior Daniel Davis (15 catches, 153 yards, three touchdowns). The Jacket receiving corps is also expected to feature senior James Steele, senior Joe Malta, junior Clarence Parchman III and junior Mitch Kendra among others. OFFENSIVE LINE The graduation of first-team All-PAC honoree Nik Sappie and Tyler Powell, who played in a combined 69 games, will certainly be felt in the trenches. Waynesburg will look towards their three returning starters 2016 FOOTBALL MEDIA GUIDE

to protect Dougherty and the rest of the Jacket backfield. Junior Nick Agliori, junior Hunter Six and senior Jon Silividi combined for 24 starts along the line. Senior JT Colosimo, senior John Norman and sophomore Stephen Summits all saw action in the trenches for the Jackets and will be among the early favorites for starting jobs. Last year, the Waynesburg offensive line allowed 18 sacks, which was the second lowest total in the PAC. THE DEFENSE Much like the Jacket offense, Waynesburg’s defense featured a slew of new, young starters this past fall. Luckily, eight of those starters are back for 2016. The Jackets are also excited about the return of All-PAC defensive back Josh Mundell, who missed all but one game last year with an injury. www.waynesburgsports.com
2016 SEASON OUTLOOK DEFENSIVE LINE Waynesburg will be led up front by senior defensive tackle Zach Machuga, who comes into this fall with 142 total tackles, including 27 for loss. He is coming off back-to-back seasons with double-digit stops behind the line of scrimmage. He’s also posted a total of 10 collegiate sacks, forced two fumbles and recovered three more. Machuga earned honorable mention All-PAC applause as a sophomore and a junior. Senior Aniellio DeStefano and junior Brad Grinnen both saw expanded roles last fall. Both players started or appeared in all 10 games for veteran defensive coordinator Scott Venick. DeStefano racked up a teamhigh five sacks as part of a 21-tackle campaign, while his 8.5 tackles for loss finished only behind Machuga’s 10 stops behind the line. Grinnen went for 16 tackles, 2.0 tfl and a sack. Waynesburg should be able to lean upon its veteran depth on the defensive line. Seniors Trevor Watson, Dave Martin, and Brandon VanTine are expected back for the Yellow Jackets. Sophomore Will VanNorman and junior James Roundtree III should also be in the mix for playing time. LINEBACKERS Despite the loss of three starters from last year, including honorable mention All-PAC selection and leading tackler Aaron Palmer, the Jacket linebackers should be solid thanks to the return of several veteran contributors. Leading the group is junior Tristan Sandrosky, who transitioned from defensive back prior to last year. Sandrosky leads all returning linebackers with 25 tackles. He also tied for the team lead with two fumble recoveries. 2016 FOOTBALL MEDIA GUIDE
Sophomore Michael Heasley, a Waynesburg native, and junior Brent Blacharczyk both saw ample field time after transferring prior to last year. Heasley recorded 24 tackles, while Blacharczyk totaled 22 stops. They combined for three tackles for loss, one of which was a sack. There should be plenty of competition for starting jobs and field time, as linebacker if one of the deeper spots in Venick’s defense. Sophomores Nico Brown and Ryan Sharp were both very productive on special teams as freshmen, while juniors Justin Babos, Micah Hotz and Alec Watts will also throw their respective hats into the ring for field time. DEFENSIVE BACKS Speaking of depth, the defensive secondary is loaded with individuals who have been through the battles on the field over their time at Waynesburg. Six of those returners started multiple games last year. Senior Drew Glotfelty is tops amongst returning defensive backs with 45 tackles, which was the third-highest total on the team in 2015. He also recorded his first collegiate interception. Hard hitting senior Eli Hargis also notched 45 total stops last year and posted a two-interception day during the Jackets’ 35-31 homecoming win over Grove City. Senior cornerback Zach Sniadach led Waynesburg with four pass breakups, while also recording 37 total tackles. Fellow senior Roomel Reese chipped in 29 tackles, 23 of which were solo stops. Sophomore Justin Willkow impressed the coaches enough to start four of the 10 games in which he appeared during his freshman campaign. Will14

TABLE OF CONTENTS kow brings good size as a cornerback (6-2, 195). He made 25 total tackles and batted away three passes from potential receivers. Junior Christian Breisinger moved from quarterback to safety prior to last season and made five starts over nine games. Sophomore John-Glen Davis, another Waynesburg native, seemed to get better and better as the year progressed. By the time his rookie season had ended, Davis, who is the younger brother of tight end Daniel Davis, had 17 tackles, three tackles for loss, three sacks and an interception. The return of Mundell only makes this group stronger. The senior racked up five tackles and an interception during Waynesburg’s season-opening win over Muskingum. That performance followed a 54-tackle, three-interception junior season in 2014. Seniors Tevin Odom, Ian Biernacki and Derrick Caldwell add to the unit’s veteran leadership. SPECIAL TEAMS Assistant head coach and special teams coordinator Jason Falvo will look to maintain his high standards for the Yellow Jacket special teams in 2016. The Jackets will need to find a new starting kicker, but the team looks set at punter and kick returner.
sophomore Garret Guthrie, who is the early favorite to replace Lewis. PUNTERS Senior Jonathan Hager showcased one of the strongest legs in the conference en route to honorable mention All-PAC praise. He averaged 38.5 yards per punt with a long of 55 yards. The right footer dropped 15 balls inside the 20-yard-line and boomed five boots of 50 yards or more. While Hager’s punter job doesn’t appear to be in danger, junior R.J. Leon will be ready in case anything happens to his more veteran counterpart. RETURNERS Barnes and Wilson head into camp as the prohibitive favorites for the starting kick returner jobs after averaging 23.6 and 20.4 yards per return, respectively. Barnes could also factor in as a punt returner, after averaging 16.0 yards per punt return on four attempts. Cooper averaged 5.1 yards per runback over a team-high seven attempts. The Jackets open the 2016 season on Saturday, Sept. 3, with a home non-PAC game against Muskingum. Kickoff is scheduled for 1:30 p.m.
KICKERS Scott Lewis, a two-year starter, will be tough to replace. Last year, he made a PAC-best 29-of-30 PAT attempts and added a field goal for 32 total points. He was also solid on kickoffs, averaging 54.3 yards per boot. The veteran knocked three balls into the opposing end zone for touchbacks. Waynesburg’s only veteran kicker is 2016 FOOTBALL MEDIA GUIDE

TABLE OF CONTENTS Shepas was named the 20th head football coach at Waynesburg on May 26, 2005, joining the Yellow Jackets after completing a seven-year tenure as head coach at Massillon Washington High School, where he won two consecutive regional championships.
While with the Tigers, he posted a 53-28 record, including a 12-2 mark in the 2001 season. In that season, Shepas coached a dynamic passing game headlined by quarterback Justin Zwick, who threw for 3,281 yards and 40 touchdowns and later went on to play quarterback at Ohio State.
In addition to coaching at Massillon, Shepas served as athletics director for the Tigers. Massillon is recognized as one of the most prominent high school athletic programs in the country with their tie to the legendary Paul Brown and the Tigers’ bitter rivalry with Canton McKinley.
Shepas began his coaching career in 1989 at Alliance (Ohio) High School as the secondary and receivers coach. In 1990, he moved on to Poland Seminary (Ohio) High School and served as the defensive coordinator for three seasons. In 1993, he assumed the head coaching duties at Poland and guided the Bulldogs to three-straight conference titles and the school’s first playoff appearance and regional championship.
In 1996, Shepas accepted the head coach position at Seneca Valley High School. In his second season, he coached the Raiders to the WPIAL semifinals and won the Quad A North Conference title after defeating North Allegheny, which was ranked No. 1 in the state.
He boasts a 97-35 career record as high school coach, which translates to a .734 winning percentage.
Shepas attended Youngstown State University, where he was a four-year member of the football team as a receiver for the Penguins. He finished his career second in school history with 150 career receptions and 2,263 career receiving yards. He was a captain and all-conference receiver on the 1986 Youngstown State team under head coach Jim Tressel, the former head coach at Division I Ohio State University.
Following his time with the Penguins, Shepas attended a mini-camp with the Cleveland Browns and a training camp with the Green Bay Packers in 1987. He later played for the Pittsburgh Gladiators, an arena football team, in 1988.
Shepas is a native of Youngstown, Ohio, and earned a bachelor’s degree in sports management from Youngstown State in 1987 and added a master’s degree in education in 1991 from Ashland University.
Shepas is a Hall of Fame member at each of his alma maters, Youngstown State (1996) and Cardinal Mooney High School (1998) in Youngstown, Ohio. He and his wife, Christine, have three daughters, Maria, Katie and Gina.

ASSISTANT COACHES Jason Falvo
ASSISTANT HEAD COACH, SPECIAL TEAMS, RUNNING BACKS Jason Falvo, a 16-year veteran of the Waynesburg football program, is back as the team’s assistant head coach. He also works with the Yellow Jacket special teams, which has featured six all-conference selections since the start of the 2012 season. Waynesburg special teams were at the forefront of the overtime victory versus Washington & Jefferson in the 2014 regular season finale. A blocked field goal by the Yellow Jackets on the first possession of overtime led to a successful 34-yard field goal by Waynesburg kicker Scott Lewis, sealing the victory for the Orange and Black. Yellow Jacket special teams also played a major role during the Yellow Jackets’ 2012 season, which featured a 10-1 overall record, a co-PAC championship and a victory in the ECAC South West Bowl Then-senior wide receiver Christian Jackson was honored as a first-team All-PAC kick returner and his 30.65 yards per return average ranked second in the country. His mark of 8.9 yards per punt return average was also tops in the conference. Then-senior kicker Alex Henry joined Jackson as an all-conference pick, garnering second-team laurels.
Falvo returned to Waynesburg in 2003 as the special teams coordinator and defensive backs coach following a two-year hiatus from the program. His impact was immediate as the Yellow Jackets fielded some of the best special teams units in the conference. Falvo, a native of Washington, Pa., earned his bachelor’s degree in education from Waynesburg in 2000. He followed that with a master’s degree from Muskingum in 2003. Falvo was a standout receiver and returner for Juniata, earning first-team all-conference honors in threestraight seasons. In addition to his football duties, Falvo serves as head coach of the men’s and women’s track & field teams. He is a three-time PAC Women’s Track & Field Coach of the Year.
In 2009 and 2010, under Falvo’s guidance, return specialist Scott Cree returned four kickoffs and two punts for touchdowns over the span of two seasons. In 2005, Falvo served as the defensive coordinator for the Yellow Jackets. That season, the Waynesburg defense ranked 16th in the nation in rushing defense and led the conference in red-zone defense. The defensive unit featured three all-conference players, including all-region defensive end Mike Czerwien, who led the league in sacks. Falvo started his coaching career in 1999, serving as running backs coach at Waynesburg. After two initial years with the Yellow Jackets, he moved on to Muskingum, holding the wide receivers coach/pass-game coordinator position for two years. While with the Fighting Muskies, Falvo worked with receiver Jeremy Abney, who holds the single-season school record for receptions. 2016 FOOTBALL MEDIA GUIDE

That season, he finished third on the team with 23 catches for 158 yards and a touchdown. Prior to coming to Waynesburg, Smithley was a three-year letterman at Laurel Valley High School, a first-team all-conference selection and a Ken Lantzy All-Star.

Game Notes: Waynesburg saw its three-game winning streak against the Titans come to an end.

Unfortunately, those were Waynesburg’s only points of the contest, which ended with the Jackets posting their lowest scoring total of the year. Senior Aaron Palmer sparked the Jacket defense with 13 tackles, nine of which were solo stops. Freshman safety John-Glen Davis recorded his first collegiate interception in the loss.

Temperature: 65 Weather: Cloudy
Game Notes: Waynesburg sent its senior day crowd home happy by taking an early lead on the Tomcats and never looking back en route to victory.The Jackets blew open a 7-3 halftime edge with a pair of third-quarter touchdown passes from freshman Jake Dougherty. Dougherty hooked up with senior Willie Leavell from 19 yards out, before dialing up a 34-yard completion to junior Tim Cooper. The Jacket signal caller made it 21 unanswered points when he found junior Kevin Barnes, Jr. for a score early in the fourth. Waynesburg’s defense didn’t give up a touchdown until Thiel broke the goal line on back-to-back possessions late in the contest. Junior defensive lineman Zach Machuga lived in the Tomcat offensive backfield. He racked up 4.0 tackles for loss and a sack as part of a nine-tackle performance. Senior Dontae Gibson pulled in an interception during his final game at John F. Wiley Stadium. SCORING SUMMARY

Junior Joe Malta provided a bright spot for the Yellow Jackets when he pulled in his first collegiate touchdown pass late in the fourth quarter. Lawman posted one of the top performances of his collegiate career, despite facing the number-three rush defense in the conference.

Washington, Pa. Cameron Stadium Attendance: 3,227
Temperature: 45 Weather: Partly Cloudy
Game Notes: Waynesburg saw its season end in Washington, as the Yellow Jackets gave the Presidents a better battle than perhaps indicated by the final score. After falling behind 7-0, the visiting team rebounded with a safety and a 16-yard touchdown connection between freshman Jake Dougherty and junior Kevin Barnes, Jr. that put Waynesburg up 9-7 midway through the first quarter. Unfortunately, the Presidents rebounded by racking up the next 31 points. The Jackets ended the day on a high note by scoring 14 of the game’s final 21 points. Freshman Ean Lee scored Waynesburg’s last touchdown of the season on a 44-yard touchdown pass. Barnes capped a fantastic first year as a featured wide receiver by pulling in seven balls for 128 yards and two touchdowns. Senior Aaron Palmer recorded seven tackles, all of which were solo stops. Two of those hits occurred behind the opposing line of scrimmage.

WAYNESBURG OVERVIEW
Waynesburg University is a small, private, comprehensive Christian university located in southwestern Pennsylvania, approximately 50 miles south of Pittsburgh. Affiliated with the Presbyterian Church (USA) and a member of the Council for Christian Colleges and Universities (CCCU), the University inspires students to pursue lives of purpose through faith, learning and serving. Offering undergraduate, graduate and doctoral programs, Waynesburg University designs its curriculum to meet the needs of today’s students. Undergraduates can choose among more than 70 programs of study, including the traditional liberal arts such as English, history, biology, and more, and innovative fields such as athletic training, biblical ministries, computer forensics, criminal justice, forensic science, marine biology, nursing, sports information, sports management, and many others. The University’s Graduate and Professional Studies Program, located at three convenient centers in the immediate Pittsburgh region, offers accelerated, evening programs geared for adult students in the fields of business, nursing, education, and counseling psychology. The University’s total enrollment is approximately 2,500 students, including over 1,500 undergraduates on the Waynesburg campus and over 800 graduate and professional studies students. Waynesburg students enjoy personalized attention from highly qualified faculty, a well-rounded liberal arts curriculum, state-of the-art facilities, a networked campus with wireless Internet in academic and recreational settings, and Internet access in all residence hall rooms.
ern additions to the dining hall and library, and a new fitness center that is accessible to students, faculty and alumni. The latest edition to the campus landscape is the magnificent Roberts Chapel. Completed in 2011, the chapel seats around 600 individuals and has become the centerpiece of the Waynesburg University landscape. A Waynesburg University education not only connects the theoretical and the practical, it also connects the world of ideas with a commitment to serving others.
