College in 1876 and enlarged in 1881 to be used as a dining hall. The bell was used to call students to meals and later to announce athletic victories. After Ridgeway Hall was razed in 1955, the bell was placed on its own stand near where it had been as part of Ridgeway Hall until the mid-1970s, when it was moved to the Passavant Center, where it was used to call students to worship.

The stadium features a red brick entrance and ticket booth area, a hospitality center which houses a memo- As Thiel’s athletic programs continue to grow and rabilia shop and a concession stand, seating for 1,400 evolve, the demands on the College’s sports facilities also grow.

Thiel College

Athletics Facilities Thiel’s 24 NCAA Division III athletics programs — and the campus and Greenville communities in general — are served by a collection of on-campus facilities that include some of the finest small-college stadia in the region.

Opened in 2001, Alumni Stadium (above) serves as the on-campus home of Thiel football as well as the men’s and women’s soccer and lacrosse programs. The stadium’s FieldTurf playing surface is also used for intramural events.

One of the newest facilities on campus, the softball field at Tomcat Park (below) is located on West Campus, near Greenville’s Riverside Park.

The baseball field at Tomcat Park was finished in time for the 2008 season and is home to Thiel’s nationally renowned baseball program. The field can comfortably accommodate several hundred fans and also features a spacious, elevated press box.

The Paul Bush ‘66 Fitness Center is located in the upper level of the historic Rissell Gymnasium on what was once the College’s main basketball court. The facility is open to the entire campus community.

Beeghly Gymnasium is located in the RissellBeeghly Gymnasia and serves as the home of Thiel’s volleyball and basketball programs.

1892

Thiel College participates in its first intercollegiate football game by taking on Grove City College on Thanksgiving Day. Thiel loses the game 48-0.

1893

Thiel, known then as the “Huskies,” picks up its first-ever intercollegiate win with a 6-0 victory over Allegheny College. The Huskies have a Thanksgiving Day rematch with Grove City, but unfortunately lose to their Mercer County rival 28-0.

1894

Thiel has its first winning season under Coach Hildum. The Huskies win four and lose three, including an 86-0 thrashing of Fredonia Institute. The 86 points are still an all-time Thiel record.

1898

Led by player-coach J. Miller Hilbish, the Huskies set a record for wins in a season with five. Hilbish teaches the players to know their positions, run interference and use trick plays against more talented teams.

1899

The Huskies are refit with moleskin cloth suits and other articles by businessmen of Greenville. Thiel also joins the Intercollegiate Athletic League (IAL), along with Westminster College, Geneva College and Allegheny. Thiel finished third in the IAL that year.

1902

On Sept. 23, the Thiel faculty issues its Football Manifesto, which prohibits the playing of football at Thiel. In reply, some students gather on a roof and sing, “In Heaven above where all is love/There will be no faculty there.”

1911

The Football Manifesto is lifted and football resumes at Thiel. Led by co-coaches Nathan Harter (for whom Harter Hall is named) and Asher F. Shupp, the Huskies finish the season 1-1. A loss to Grove City and a win against Edinboro highlights the second coming of the “first season of Thiel football”.

1916

Loyal Thiel students walk a 55-mile distance to Beaver Falls to see Thiel play Geneva to a 0-0 tie. The students travel as far as Ellwood City on Friday and finish their journey Saturday morning.

Mike Donato ’71

1918

The Thiel football team, led by Coach Herbert “Hub” Lynch, plays only one game, a 27-0 loss to Grove City, before dropping the rest of the schedule due to World War I.

1924

Head Coach Tommy Holleran takes the Huskies to Pittsburgh to face Carnegie Tech. Thiel is defeated 22-0, but puts up such a fight that Wally Steffen, head coach of Carnegie Tech, says that the team “played like Wildcats.” This leads Melvin A. Blair, sports editor of the Greenville Record-Argus, to report that “they played like Tom’s Cats.” The name sticks and the athletic teams at Thiel are known as the Tomcats from then on.

1932

John B. Stoeber takes over the head coaching reins of the Tomcats. Although Thiel ends the season 3-6 in his first year, Stoeber remains the head coach until 1955, compiling a Thiel-record 75 wins in his 19 seasons.

1941

The Tomcats post their first undefeated season in school history with a 7-0 record. Thiel dominates their opponents by posting six shutouts and allowing only seven points the entire season.

eated . Thiel shuttire

College, initially focused on ministry for the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America, was founded as Thiel Hall in Monaca, Pa., in 1866 and chartered by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in 1870. In 1871 the college moved to Greenville where it has remained ever since. The first football game was played against Grove City College in 1892. hiel

The years from 1902-1910 are referred to in Thiel College history as the “Football Manifesto”. There are some differing accounts as to why Thiel stopped playing football for this eight year period - but the most accurate history is probably found in The History of Thiel College, 18661974. Reportedly, a faculty manifesto was passed declaring football “too violent”, causing the students to refer to these years as the Football Manifesto. The faculty relented in 1910 after eight years of student protest and in 1911 Thiel fielded a football team for two games, one versus Grove City College and one versus Edinboro College (now Edinboro University). The second period of time when Thiel did not have a football team was from 1942-1945, during the United State’s participation in World War II. In the 106 seasons of Thiel’s football history, many important events and firsts have occurred. For example, the first football game designated a “Homecoming game” was in 1915 on Thanksgiving weekend versus Hiram

College. The Tomcats prevailed 28-13 and afterwards a banquet was held with entertainment by the college orchestra. Other milestones include: the first Thiel win: 1893 vs. Allegheny, 4-0; the 100th Thiel win: 1936 vs. Allegheny, 6-0; and the 300th Thiel win: 2001 vs. Grove City, 40-27. The most celebrated individual in Thiel’s football history is without a doubt coach Jack Stoeber. Coach Stoeber served as head football coach from 1932-1941 and again from 1946-1954. He amassed 75 wins in that time and went on to win the Dapper Dan award for outstanding contributions to athletics in Western Pennsylvania, the Greenville Man of the Year award, the National Recreation Association award for distinguished service in community recreation and numerous coach of the year awards. Coach Stoeber’s career at Thiel also included stints as professor of German, head men’s basketball coach, dean of men and director of athletics. The remarkable history of excellence and achievement is remembered as the building blocks for today’s Thiel football players. Except for the two periods without football teams during Thiel’s history, varsity football has been played every year since 1892, and this year marks the celebration of the 107th season of Thiel football.

Football is halted for the duration of World War II. It is the first gridiron stoppage at Thiel since 1918. The Tomcats pick up where they left off in 1941 by posting their second-straight 7-0 season. Although the Tomcats allow more than seven points, they still record three shutouts, including a 2-0 win over Slippery Rock State College.

1950

Thiel rolls to their third perfect season in school history. The Tomcats finish at 7-0 with five shutouts while outscoring their opponents 206-13. During the season they set the modern single game scoring record with 61 points against Lycoming College.

1955

Joe DiFebo, captain of Stoeber’s 1941 team, takes over as Thiel’s new head coach. DiFebo carries on the winning tradition with a 6-1 record.

1958

Thiel joins the Presidents’ Athletic Conference in the fall of 1958, along with Allegheny College, Washington & Jefferson College and Bethany College.

The Tomcats win their first PAC title with a perfect 6-0 conference mark under second-year head coach Jim McCullough. McCullough leads the Tomcats to their second PAC football title with a 6-1 conference record.

The Tomcats open Alumni Stadium at Stoeber Field, bringing Thiel football to campus after decades of playing on nearby Stewart Field.

1981

In their win against Case Western Reserve University on Sept. 26, the Tomcats set PAC records with 451 yards of rushing and 676 yards of total offense.

Thiel Football celebrates its 100th season as the Tomcats travel to Canada and defeat the University of Toronto at Lamport Stadium. The team finished with a 7-3 overall record and second in the PAC with a 4-1 mark. The Tomcats’ last seven-win season was in 1972 (7-2) when Thiel recorded its second PAC championship.

1991

2005

First-year head coach Charlie Giangrosso leads the Tomcats to their first winning season since 1979 with a 5-4 record.

1999

The Tomcat football team makes its first international appearance, traveling to Munich, Germany. Thiel returns to the U.S. victorious over the Landsbert Express semi-pro team.

2000

Former player and coach Howard Weyers ‘56 and wife Kay announce lead pledge to launch the campaign to raise funds for the construction of Alumni Stadium.

Under the direction of fifth-year head coach Jack Leipheimer, the Tomcats post an unblemished 10-0 regular season mark, win the PAC title for the first time since 1972 and make the program’s first-ever NCAA Division III playoff appearance. After posting a 28-3 home victory over Johns Hopkins University in the opening round of the Division III playoffs the Tomcats suffer a 24-13 loss at Alumni Stadium to Bridgewater College in the second round to finish the year with an 11-1 record.

PERFECTION Thiel’s Undefeated Regular seasons

Thiel has produced four unbeaten, untied regular seasons in its history. Three came during the tenure of legendary coach Jack Stoeber, who led Thiel to 75 wins in 19 seasons at the helm. The most recent came in 2005 under the direction of head coach Jack Leipheimer, whose team was the first in school history to advance to the NCAA Playoffs.

During its time in the PAC, Thiel has won three conference football titles - in 1967, 1972, and most recently in 2005. The winner of the PAC title earns the league’s automatic berth in the NCAA D-III Playoffs.

A Century of Thiel Football

the TOMCAT mascot T

hrough 1923 Thiel athletic teams were known as the “Huskies”. But in 1924, greatly impressed by the spirit of the Thiel football team, Carnegie Tech head coach Wally Steffen observed that “they played like wild, wild cats.”

his prompted Melvin A. Blair of the Greenville Record Argus to report “Thiel played like Tom’s cats,” in reference to head coach Dr. Thomas Holleran, a Greenville dentist and former All-America at the University of Pittsburgh. From that point thereafter the Thiel “Huskies” became known as the Thiel “Tomcats” as a tribute to Dr. Holleran.

Head coach Tommy Holleran pictured at left in this 1926 photo - was an All-America quarterback at the University of Pittsburgh before arriving at Thiel.

THIEL COLLEGE

2013 SEASON OUTLOOK

fter winning three Presidents’ Athletic Conference games last season for the first time since 2006, the Thiel College Tomcats will be on the hunt for more success in 2013 as the program looks to turn the corner under fifth-year head coach Kurt Reiser. Thanks to a committed team and dedicated coaching staff, this year’s Thiel roster will boast 23 seniors, 25 letter winners and 18 returning starters. “We are all very excited to get the season started,” Reiser said. “There is an air of excitement not only in our football team but all over campus, as well. This coming fall we will enter the season with 23 seniors. These players have made the commitment to each other and to the football program to stay the course. They believe in what we are building and they are committed to reaching their individual goals and our goals as a football team. We expect great leadership from them this fall.” Coaching Staff Reiser will have six Thiel alumni on his staff in 2013, including: John Harakal ’02 (defensive coordinator), Darrell Satterfield ’06 (quarterbacks), Steve Boyle ’07 (special teams coordinator & secondary), Kelly Nan ’81 (defensive line), Barry Oman ’74 (secondary) and Dan Rasor ’13 (tight ends). “I think when you have alumni on staff they take great pride in the football program and the institution,” said Reiser, “and they’re going to do a great job for our players.” Other assistants include: Mike Donghia (running backs), Josh Lott (defensive line), Todd Gilcrist (wide receivers), Scott Sigworth (linebackers) and Frank Amato (linebackers). “This is the most comfortable I have been with our coaching staff since I

Taylor Fink led the Tomcats with 618 rushing yards in 2012. He averaged 61.8 yards per game on the ground, which was the eighth best average in the PAC.

became the head coach,” Reiser said. “I think we have some new coaches that have a wealth of knowledge and experience that are going to bring great things to the table.” Offense With 14 letter winners and 10 starters returning from a season ago, Thiel’s offense enters the 2013 season with perhaps the most potential in recent memory. In accord with the team’s philosophy, everything is predicated on the success of the running game, which starts with a good offensive line, where the Tomcats will welcome back four returning starters in seniors Jordan Fortuna and Jonathan Welsh, junior Jason Crystol and sophomore Brandon Sullens. Fortuna and Crystol were both All-PAC selections last season, while Crystol was also named a preseason All-American by USA Football News. Other upper class offensive linemen that could be in the mix for playing time this season include: senior John Beal, junior Chase Good and sophomores Joe

Gillespie and Keith Stover. “It has to start with our run game,” Reiser said. “We’re a Multiple-I team that likes to run the ball. If we can establish the running game and control the tempo of the game and the clock, not only is it going to help us offensively, but it will help us defensively.” The offensive line will look to protect its signal-caller, Andrew Smith, who returns to lead the Tomcats after a solid junior season. Smith completed 154 of 259 passes (59.5%) in 2012 for 1,399 yards, which was the sixth most in the conference. Smith was also dangerous on the ground last season, running for 276 yards and five touchdowns on 91 carries. “I think he made strides last season,” Reiser said of Smith. “You could see last year that he became comfortable with his role in our offense. There were times where he made some outstanding plays, not only with his arm but with his running ability. He’s a great athlete, and we’re excited to have him back.”

THIEL COLLEGE

Smith will hand off to a strong onetwo tailback combination of Josh Potter and Taylor Fink, who both ran for over 100 yards in one game last season, a 21-7 loss to Grove City during the last game of the season. The last time the Tomcats had two 100-yard rushers in one game was in a 37-13 win over Bethany on Sept. 29, 2007, when Steve Minton and Dan Hess accomplished the feat.

Defensive back Martae Hainesworth was one of 11 Tomcats who were selected as PAC All-Conference players in 2012.

Fink ran for 618 yards and scored three touchdowns in 2012 on 155 carries. He finished eighth in the conference with an average of 61.8 yards per game. Potter rushed for 374 yards last season and scored three touchdowns on 118 totes. “We have two quality running backs,” said Reiser. “Josh Potter offers us the power of being able to run between the tackles and he also has good speed to get to the edge. He offers us athleticism at the position that we haven’t had in a long time. Taylor is a hard runner and a good athlete, who can get involved in the pass game.”

“Richie has gotten bigger and stronger, and his footwork has gotten better,” Reiser said, while mentioning that sophomore Cody Fisher could also see playing time at fullback.

In addition to his running back and tight end weapons, Smith will also have an arsenal of veteran receivers to throw to including a trio of senior receivers in Matt Fedzen, Bill Frizzi and Nate Blazevich. Fedzen caught 22 passes last season for 211 yards while Frizzi grabbed 19 passes for 183 yards and Blazevich contributed 15 catches for 156 yards.

Berend Grube, a senior and returning All-PAC selection, returns as the starting tight end. He led the Tomcats last season in receptions (34) and yards (325) while scoring two touchdowns.

“I think we have outstanding leadership there,” Reiser said of his receivers. “I think Nate Blazevich, Bill Frizzi and Matt Fedzen work extremely hard, and they are precise in their route running.”

“Berend is an outstanding weapon in the middle of the field for us. He creates matchup problems with defensive backs because of his size and linebackers because of his speed and size. He catches the ball extremely well. He’s 6 feet 5 inches tall, weighs 255 pounds and he runs a 4.9 second 40-yard sprint. Those are things that you don’t really see too often at this level from a tight end.”

Another receiver to look for in 2013 is Tim Walker, who returns to the squad after playing in seven games in 2011.

Lead-blocking for Potter and Fink in the Multiple-I will be returning junior fullback Rich Smallwood.

Also returning at tight end is senior Kyle Turkalj, who made five catches last season. 2013 FOOTBALL GUIDE

Defense It would be difficult to underestimate the impact that Harakal had on Thiel’s defense last season. Under Harakal’s direction, the Tomcats finished second in the conference in total defense, allowing an average of 284.6 yards per game. The squad was also the best in the PAC at stopping

the run, allowing an average of 107.7 yards per game, and racking up a conference-best 33 sacks. Though the defense lost sack master and All-American defensive end Tim Taylor, its top tackler in linebacker Ethan Ludwig, defensive tackle Kris Tursky, and defensive back Marshaun Hainesworth due to graduation, there is reason to believe that the 2013 defense will again be one of the top units in the conference. “When you talk about our defensive line, there are obviously some holes to fill with the loss of a guy like Tim Taylor,” Reiser said. “It’s hard to replace a guy like Tim. Also, the loss of Kris Tursky, who I think did an excellent job not only in the run game but in the pass game, as well. There are going to be some guys that are going to have to step up.” One D-lineman who will be looked Continued on Page 14

Thiel won three PAC games in 2012, the most since 2006.

Continued from page 13 upon to help fill the void left by the departure of Taylor and Tursky is junior Cody McClelland, who was an All-PAC honorable mention selection last season at right defensive end. He made 25 tackles last season, was second on the team with six sacks and forced two fumbles. “Cody had a really good season last year,” said Reiser. “He did a nice job rushing the passer, and we expect him to pick up some of the slack.” Sophomore defensive tackle Reily Shane, who really came on at the end of the 2012 season, also returns to the defensive line. He made 17 tackles and recorded three sacks in eight games last year. “He’s a big, strong kid in the middle that can run,” Reiser said of Shane. “We’re looking for big things from him.”

understand our defensive scheme and they both get to the football very well.”

Returning defensive backs include: 2012 All-PAC honorable mention selection Martae Hainesworth, who finished sixth on last year’s squad with 43 tackles third with five pass breakups; senior Rob Edwards, who was second on last year’s team with six pass breakups; sophomore safety Brandon Wolfe, who was seventh on last year’s team with 40 tackles and broke up four passes; senior Julian McLean, a 2011 All-PAC honorable mention pick, who missed some time due to an injury last season.

Two other players who could see significant playing time at linebacker include R.J. Malson, a Greenville native, who transferred to Thiel from Mount Union in January, and junior Wes Schmidt.

Another player to look for in the secondary is sophomore Tim Canady, whose first-quarter blocked punt helped lead the Tomcats to a 16-10 win over Westminster last season.

While the defensive line will consist of some new players, one area of the defense that is loaded with upperclassmen is the secondary.

Junior linebackers Jack Sindlinger and Tom Thorpe, both of whom were All-PAC honorable mention selections last season, return to anchor the linebackers in Thiel’s Multiple 4-3 defense. Sindlinger and Thorpe finished second (75) and third (69) on the team in tackles last season, respectively, while recording six tackles for loss apiece. The duo also combined for 2.5 sacks, one interception, and six pass breakups.

“I think we have some very, very good athletes in the secondary,” Reiser said. “What’s going to be interesting for us is how that all plays

“Tommy Thorpe and Jack Sindlinger are good football players, no doubt,” Reiser said. “They’re both smart. They understand the game, they

Others that will be looked upon to step up on the defensive line are senior Bryce Whittingham, who can play inside or outside, and junior defensive tackle Tyree Abrams.

out in camp, who plays what position, and what is the right combination for us.”

Special Teams Sophomore place kicker Jon Fennick, who joined the team mid-way through the 2012 season, will return to kick extra points and field goals. Fennick made 2-of-3 field goals last year. His season-long field goal was a 30-yarder in 16-10 win over Westminster. Frizzi handled a majority of his team’s punt and kickoff returns last season and was among the best in the PAC with an average punt return of 4.2 yards and kick return of 23.3 yards. Others who could be in the mix in the return game include Edwards, Canady and McLean. As he did last season, McClelland is set to serve as the team’s punter. At 36.7 yards per boot, he owned the conference’s fifth best punting average in 2012. Fink is set to serve as the team’s long snapper for punts, field goals and extra points in 2013, and Grube, McClelland or Fennick will handle kickoffs.

A member of the Thiel coaching staff under Jack Leipheimer for eight seasons, Reiser served as the team’s assistant head coach and offensive coordinator from 2007-08 prior to being named head coach. As a member of the Thiel coaching staff, Reiser has been no stranger to success. As the team’s offensive line coach from 2001 to 2006, Reiser mentored eight Tomcats to a combined 19 All-Presidents’ Athletic Conference selections. Two players – Dave Hendricks and Bob Munch – were four-time selections. In Thiel’s 11-win 2005 campaign, the Reiser-led offensive line played an integral part in securing the program’s first PAC title since 1972 and its first undefeated regular season since 1950. Five members of that unit were named to the AllPAC team, with two garnering first team honors.

most prolific quarterback-receiver duos in school history. After being named offensive coordinator prior to the 2007 season, Reiser has called the shots for several of the most impressive offensive displays in Thiel football annals. In his inaugural season as the Tomcats’ offensive play-caller, running back Dan Hess set three school records in one day, racking up 327 yards and 30 points on 43 rushes in a 62-14 drubbing of Saint Vincent College. The next season quarterback Willie Bova conducted a similar assault on Thiel passing records by completing 32 of 63 tosses for 374 yards (all three are school records). Prior to arriving at Thiel, Reiser was the offensive coordinator at Leyden High School in Chicago for six years. A 1993 Allegheny graduate, he earned his master’s degree from DePaul University in 1997. With the Gators, where he played under then-assistant coach Leipheimer, Reiser was a three-year starter at tight end and was a two-time All-NCAC selection and an All-American. Reiser was also a starter on the Gators’ 1990 National Championship team. Reiser and his wife, Nancy, have three children: Ben, Ethan, and Ellie.

While Hendricks turned in one of the best seasons of all time for a Thiel offensive lineman, earning AFCA first team and D3 Football.com first team All-America honors in addition to being named the Don Hansen Football Gazette National Offensive Lineman of the Year and earning an invitation to participate in the Aztec Bowl, the O-line as a whole paved the way for a potent Tomcat attack. Over the course of the 2005 season, Reiser’s line allowed only seven sacks in the regular season and aided in establishing Steve Minton as the school’s alltime leading rusher and Darrell Satterfield and Brandon Chambers as one of the

THIEL COLLEGE

Q&A Q: How

with

Coach Reiser

excited are you to start

the season after the team won three

PAC games last season for the first time since 2006? A: We are all very excited to get the season started. There is an air of excitement not only in our football team but all over campus, as well. Our message this offseason was to prepare the best way possible to put ourselves in position to do great things this fall. vvv Q: What

impact will having

seniors on your roster have on this year’s team?

A: We are very excited about the growth of our roster. During the 2010 and 2011 seasons, we had 12 and five seniors, respectively. Our roster has now changed to where this coming fall we will enter the season with 23 seniors. These players have made the commitment to each other and to the football program to stay the course. They believe in what we are building and they are committed to reaching their individual and team goals. vvv Q: What

are your expectations

this season for senior quarterback

Andrew Smith?

A: I think he made strides last season. You could see last year that he became comfortable with his role of playing off the run game to set up the pass. There were times where he made some outstanding plays, no only with his arm but with his running ability. He’s a great athlete, and we’re excited to have him back. Q: Smith

returns to command an

14 returning is the team’s in 2013?

offense that includes letter winners.

What

offensive potential

A: It’s the most potential we have had going into the season on offense probably in four years, going back probably to 2009. This year we have 10 starters back on offense, and it starts with the guys up 2013 FOOTBALL GUIDE

front. We feel very good about Jordan Fortuna and Jason Crystol being back, as well as Jon Welsh and Brandon Sullens. Chase Good is also back, and we expect good things from him. Q: What

makes it so difficult for

opposing defenses to cover returning All-PAC tight end Berend Grube?

A: Berend is an outstanding weapon in the middle of the field for us. He creates matchup problems with defensive backs because of his size and linebackers because of his speed and size. He catches the ball extremely well. He’s 6 feet 4 inches tall, weighs 255 pounds and he runs a 4.9 second 40-yard sprint. Those are things that you don’t really see too often at this level from a tight end. He’s a complete player. I think when you look at our conference, he is the best true tight end. We expect big things from him this year, and I think he’s ready for it. vvv Q: On the defensive side of the ball, you lost All-American defensive end Tim Taylor to graduation. How will the defense look this season without Taylor, the program’s career leader in sacks and tackles for loss? A: It is always a tough thing to try to replace a great player and leader like Tim Taylor. He was an outstanding player for us and we will miss him. However, it will be interesting to see who steps up to fill that void. We believe we have a great core to build around on defensive side of the ball. Players like Cody McClelland and Reily Shane up front, along with our secondary of Brandon Wolfe, Julian McLean, and Rob Edwards should give our defense leadership and play-making ability. vvv Q: Is

the secondary the strength

of this year’s defense?

A: I think we have some very, very good athletes in the secondary. Not only do we have good athletes back there, but we

have good depth as well. What’s going to be interesting for us is how that all plays out in camp, who plays what position, and what is the right combination for us. vvv Q: What

are some of your best

memories as a coach at

Thiel?

A: In the past 12 seasons, there have been many moments that I will never forget. From my days as an assistant coach, I will not forget the 38-35 overtime win over W&J or the 50-48 triple overtime win against CMU in 2005. Those were great football games. As the head coach, I will certainly never forget the win over Geneva last season to break our losing streak. Our kids deserved a break and we had several go our way that day. I will not forget the pure joy on their faces as they celebrated on the field. vvv Q: What

does it take week in and

week out to win in the

PAC?

A: It is our goal each week to be the best team fundamentally, the best team physically, and the best prepared team. To be the best fundamentally, you have to pay attention to the details of playing your position. To be the best team physically, you have to play with a physical attitude and toughness. To be the best prepared team, you must prepare yourself mentally for the game which means understanding your opponent and what you are trying to accomplish. For us to be successful, our team has to be fundamental, physically tough, and intelligent on the football field. 26

Mailing Address Thiel College Department of Athletics 75 College Avenue Greenville, PA 16125

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS

A coaching veteran of 34 years — including 25 at the collegiate level — Leipheimer returned to Thiel as its head football coach in 2001 and promptly guided the program to national prominence. His 2005 team compiled an 11-1 record and drew two NCAA playoff games to Alumni Stadium in Greenville. Over his eight seasons at the helm of the football program, Leipheimer amassed 36 wins – which ties for third most all-time in school history — including an NCAA Division III playoff win in 2005. Under his tutelage, Thiel players earned 114 all-conference selections, 17 all-region players and 10 all-America selections. He also coached five ESPN The Magazine Academic All-Americans – a testament to his emphasis on academic excellence. Leipheimer continues to stress the importance of academic and athletic success to Thiel’s student-athletes as he oversees the day-to-day operations of the athletic department. In addition, he will focus on fund-raising efforts in support of Thiel’s athletics program which includes more than 20 coaches and staff members and over 300 student-athletes. Leipheimer was a four-year letter winner and three-year starter at tight end, earning All-PAC accolades in 1973. He was a member of the 1972 squad that registered the college’s second PAC title with a 6-1 conference mark. He was also a three-year letter winner with the Tomcat baseball squad, playing both catcher and first base. Before arriving at Thiel he served as an assistant coach at Allegheny College for 17 years, with the last 12 seasons as the defensive coordinator. He began his coaching career in 1975 as the offensive coordinator at the Bullis School, Potomac, Md. He then served as the defensive coordinator at Trinity High School, Garfield Heights, Ohio, from 1976-1978, and as head coach of the former Kennedy Christian High School, now Kennedy Catholic, Hermitage, Pa., from 1979-1984. During his 12 seasons as Allegheny’s defensive play-caller (1989-2000), the Gators tallied an impressive overall record of 106-23-1, including 22 shutouts. Leipheimer’s defensive schemes helped the Gators win the NCAA Division III National Championship in 1990, and six North Coast Athletic Conference (NCAC) Championships. At Allegheny Leipheimer coached 70 All-North Coast Athletic Conference (NCAC) defensive players, 43 of whom were named to the first team and 22 defensive All-Americans.

2009 in Review

2012 SEASON IN REVIEW GAME ONE

Juniata 16 Thiel 13 GREENVILLE, Pa. (Sept. 1, 2012) – The Tomcats suffered a heartbreaking 16-13 loss to the Juniata Eagles Saturday in their 2012 season opener at Alumni Stadium. The Tomcats held a 7-6 halftime lead thanks to Taylor Fink’s 6-yard touchdown run early in the second quarter. The Thiel defense held the Eagles to a pair of field goals in the first half, one from 28 yards and the other from 26 yards. The Tomcat offense embarked on an 8-play, 67-yard drive to open the third quarter. The drive culminated with Fink’s second touchdown run of the game, this one on a 1-yard plunge. The extra point was no good, but the Tomcats held a 13-6 lead. Juniata tied up the contest, 13-13, late in the third quarter on a one-yard run by quarterback Ward Udinski. The Eagles earned the eventual game-winning points on the toe of Scott Andrews, who booted a 27-yard field goal with 4:56 remaining in regulation. Thiel’s offense had two more drives down the stretch but neither resulted in any points. On the Tomcats’ final drive, which began on their own 1-yard line, quarterback Andrew Smith led his squad all the way down to the Juniata 37-yard line, but his lob into the end zone for a potential game-winning touchdown fell incomplete as time expired. GAME TWO

Rochester 17 Thiel 7 ROCHESTER, N.Y. (Sept. 8, 2012) – The Thiel Tomcats fell to 0-2 on the season after suffering a 17-7 loss to the University of Rochester Yellowjackets. Thiel fell behind 14-0 in the first quarter on a pair of Dean Kennedy touchdown passes. Kennedy’s first TD pass, a 19-yarder to Chris Lebano, came on Rochester’s first drive of the game. His second TD pass was a 50-yarder to Garrett Kesel with a little more than three minutes remaining in the first quarter. The Tomcats refused to give in and, on their second offensive drive in the second half, embarked on a 13-play drive that consumed six minute and 23 seconds and ended with a 1-yard Taylor Fink touchdown run. Cody McClelland tacked on the extra point and the Tomcats trailed by just seven points with nearly 19 minutes remaining in the contest.

Fink paced Thiel’s touchdown drive, picking up a trio of first downs on runs of 3-, 7- and 1-yard. Quarterback Andrew Smith also completed a clutch 18-yard pass to Berend Grube in a third-and-two situation from the Rochester 19-yard line to set up Fink’s touchdown run. The Tomcat offense pieced together another long drive in the fourth quarter, but it fizzled out at the Rochester 26-yard line when Smith’s fourth down pass intended for Grube fell incomplete. Rochester added three crucial points with 2:34 remaining in the game on a 40-yard field goal by Alex Antonucci. Fink was Thiel’s top runner with 60 yards and a touchdown on 15 carries. Lebano led the Yellowjackets with 79 yards on 24 carries. Smith completed 17 of 31 passes for 128 yards. McClelland had a nice day punting. He averaged 42.3 yards per punt with a long of 51 yards and one punt that was downed inside the 20-yard line. Linebacker Tom Thorpe led Thiel’s defense with nine tackles, 2.5 of which were for a loss. Tomcat senior defensive end Tim Taylor recorded one tackle for a loss, which moved him into second place on Thiel’s career tackles for loss list (46.5). Taylor also recorded one sack to move into a fourth-place tie on Thiel’s career sacks list (22). GAME THREE (OT)

The Tomcats took a 14-0 lead into halftime on second-quarter touchdown runs by Josh Potter and Andrew Smith from 2- and 25-yards out, respectively. Geneva came back in the third quarter and tied up the score, 14-14, on touchdown receptions by Corey O’Patchen (38 yards) and Rocco Colavecchia (10 yards). The Golden Tornadoes lined up for a potential 32-yard game-winning field goal with 23 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter, but Bryan Visingardi’s kick sailed wide left. Smith connected with Grube for a 16-yard completion on Thiel’s first play in overtime. Taylor Fink then got the ball down to the Geneva 5-yard line on a pair of runs before Smith’s third-down pass in the far corner of the end zone for Nate Blazevich fell incomplete. McClelland’s field goal attempt turned touchdown pass followed on fourth-and-goal from the Geneva 5-yard line. On their ensuring drive the Golden Tornadoes picked up a first down on runs of 7- and 4-yards by Dylan Jones down to the Thiel 14-yard line, but that’s where the drive stopped. Colavecchia ran for no gain on first down, and Geneva threw three straight incomplete passes to end the game. Thiel’s defense combined for nine pass break ups, six tackles for loss and five sacks.

GAME FOUR

GREENVILLE, Pa. (Sept. 15, 2012) – Thiel place kicker Cody McClelland had no idea what was about to transpire. Neither did tight end Berend Grube. The snapper-to-holder exchange for a potential go-ahead field goal in overtime against Geneva College did not go smoothly, and the football bounced gently at the Geneva 12-yard line. It seemed like an unfortunate missed opportunity, but Thiel’s luck was about to change. A “fire, fire, fire” call was made and Grube abandoned his blocking assignment in favor of a short passing route in the Geneva end zone. McClelland picked up the ball, spotted No. 82 and, under heavy pressure lobbed what would count as the game-winning touchdown pass to Grube. Geneva’s offense still had an opportunity to tie the score up, but Thiel’s D kept the Golden Tornadoes out of the end zone to put the finishing touches on a 21-14 overtime win Saturday at Alumni Stadium, which broke the team’s 24-game losing streak. A celebration ensued at Alumni Stadium with many wiping tears of joy from their eyes as the Tomcats rang the Victory Bell for the first time since Oct. 21, 2009.

GREENVILLE, Pa. (Sept. 22, 2012) – The Washington & Jefferson Presidents scored two first-half touchdowns en route to a 17-0 victory over the Thiel Tomcats. Dion Wiegand scored W&J’s first touchdown of the game with 5:08 left to play in the first quarter on a 1-yard run. Alex Baroffio set up the score on a 54-yard punt return to the Thiel 7-yard line. The Presidents went into the locker room at halftime leading 14-0 after a 9-play drive concluded with a 30-yard touchdown pass from Baroffio to Hunter Creek with 17 seconds remaining in the second quarter. W&J extended its lead to 17-0 on its first possession of the second half when Eric Eberle booted a 44-yard field goal to put the finishing touches on a 12-play drive that consumed more than seven minutes of game clock. After the Presidents went up 17-0, the Tomcats responded with a long drive of their own, but the march was stopped short of pay dirt when the Presidents sacked Andrew Smith on a fourth-and-goal play from the 3-yard line. On their next possession, the Tomcats advanced

2012 SEASON IN REVIEW the ball to the W&J 25-yard line, but an interception by Nathan Melhorn ended the threat. Taylor Fink led the Tomcats with 22 yards on the ground while Josh Potter picked up 18 rushing yards. Berend Grube made seven receptions for 48 yards. Tom Thorpe led Thiel’s defense with 14 tackles, 11 of which were solo stops. Senior defensive end Tim Taylor, who made five tackles, recorded two sacks, 3.5 tackles for a loss and recovered one fumble. GAME FIVE

Waynesburg 20 Thiel 19 GREENVILLE, Pa. (Sept. 29, 2012) - The Tomcats were on the verge of a major upset over undefeated and PAC-leading Waynesburg University during homecoming at Thiel College. In the end, however, Waynesburg scored a late touchdown and held on to defeat the scrappy Tomcats, 20-19. Bernie Thompson’s 15-yard touchdown reception from Carter Hill with 6:58 remaining in regulation gave the Yellow Jackets the gameclinching score, roughly three minutes after the Tomcats took a 19-14 lead when Andrew Smith scored on a designed quarterback draw from 12 yards out. The Tomcats had two more offensive possessions down the stretch, but the Yellow Jacket defense rose to the occasion to seal the win with a fumble recovery and a turnover on downs. Waynesburg jumped out to a 7-0 lead with 3:01 remaining in the first quarter on a 10-yard touchdown pass from Tyler Fatigante to Adam Moses. Thiel climbed back to within a point in the second quarter when tight end Berend Grube caught a 23-yard touchdown pass from Smith on a deflection. Unfortunately, Thiel’s extra point try failed. The Yellow Jackets went into halftime with a 14-6 lead when Fatigante scored a touchdown on a 5-yard run. Smith and freshman running back Josh Potter had career-best days for the Tomcats. Smith completed 23-of-36 passes for 243 yards, one touchdown pass and no interceptions. He also put the Tomcats ahead briefly in the fourth quarter on a 12-yard touchdown run. Potter carried 17 times for 57 yards and scored on a 9-yard touchdown run in the third quarter. Grube has become a major part of the Thiel’s offense and Smith’s favorite target. He caught eight passes for 92 yards. His touchdown catch in the second quarter was his second of the season. Fatigante led Waynesburg with 51 yards on the ground on nine carries. He and Hill combined to complete nine passes on 19 attempts with

two touchdown passes and one interception. Senior linebacker Ethan Ludwig led Thiel’s defense with 12 total tackles, two of which were for a loss. Sophomore linebacker Jack Sindlinger was second on the team with nine total tackles. He also recorded the Tomcats’ first interception of the season in the third quarter. Thiel senior defensive end Tim Taylor recorded one sack and two tackles for loss Saturday. On his second tackle for loss, Taylor became Thiel’s all-time career leader in the category (54), surpassing Jon Howson’s (2002-05) 53.5. GAME SIX

Thiel 14 Saint Vincent 7 LATROBE, Pa. (Oct. 6, 2012) – The Thiel Tomcats used two splash plays on defense to secure a 14-7 win over the Bearcats during homecoming at Saint Vincent College. The Bearcats marched 61 yards down the field in six plays on the opening possession of the game and took an early 7-0 lead at Chuck Noll Field on a 37-yard pass from Matt Deakins to Ryan Crawford. Saint Vincent’s offense spent a majority of the remainder of the game trying to get back on track without much success. Thiel’s first big splash play came with a little less than seven minutes remaining in the first half. With Saint Vincent in a third-and-6 situation from its own 34, Deakins dropped back to pass. The ball was tipped at the line by senior defensive end Tim Taylor, and senior linebacker Ethan Ludwig intercepted the ball at the 31 and took it to the house down the near side of the field. Cody McClelland tacked on the extra point to tie up the contest, 7-7. The Tomcats came up with another big play on defense with less than a minute remaining in the first half when junior defensive back Rob Edwards intercepted another Deakins pass. This interception came at the Thiel 48-yard line, and Edwards picked up 29 yards on the return down to the Bearcat 23-yard line with 41 seconds left to play in the first half. After the interception, quarterback Andrew Smith picked up a critical first down for the Tomcats in a third-and-7 situation when he scrambled for 15 yards to the 5-yard line. After Smith’s first-down run the Tomcats only had enough time to run two plays, but they only needed one when Smith lobbed a 5-yard TD pass to Zane Garza in the back corner of the end zone on first-and-goal. McClelland knocked in the extra point to put the Tomcats on top at halftime, 14-7. Smith’s 5-yard touchdown pass to Garza proved to be the game-winning score for the Tomcats thanks to the team’s punishing defense, which refused to allow the Bearcats to

cross the 50-yard line in the second half. Thiel had two good scoring drives in the second half, but could not to add to its lead. After receiving the opening kickoff in the second half, Thiel drove down to the Saint Vincent 19-yard line on a drive that was highlighted by a 20-yard catch by Berend Grube and a 21-yard reception by Kyle Turkalj. However, the drive ended abruptly on a fumble. Later in the game Thiel absorbed nearly four minutes of clock during an 8-play march, but the drive fizzled out when Thiel couldn’t convert on fourth-and-2 from the Saint Vincent 14-yard line. Taylor Fink led the Tomcat running game with 61 yards on 19 carries. Smith carried four times for 27 yards. Smith completed 14-of-24 passes for 132 yards. He threw one touchdown pass and, for the second Saturday in a row, did not throw an interception. Garza, who pulled down the game-winning TD reception, was Smith’s favorite target. He had five catches for 51 yards. As a team, Thiel’s defense came up with two critical interceptions, six tackles for loss, two sacks and five pass break ups. GAME SEVEN

Thomas More 28 Thiel 16 CRESTVIEW HILLS, Ky. (Oct. 13, 2012) – Senior defensive end Tim Taylor recorded three and a half sacks Saturday to become Thiel College’s all-time career leader in the category during the Tomcats’ 28-16 loss to Thomas More. Taylor recorded the record-setting sack in the second quarter. Saints quarterback Jensen Gebhardt dropped back to pass on a thirdand-8 play from the Thiel 31-yard line and was met by Taylor, who brought him down for a loss of five yards to force a punt. Taylor passed former Tomcat defensive end Chris Lorber (2004-2007), who amassed 28 career sacks in his four-year career. Taylor now has 10.5 sacks on the season, keeping him in the PAC lead. The Saints took an early 7-0 lead with 2:11 to play in the first quarter when Gebhardt found Cody Hinkel from six yards out. The Tomcats answered, as newly recruited freshman kicker Jon Fennick made his presence felt when he nailed a 28-yard field goal to bring the score to 7-3 with 14:19 to play in the first half. The Saints added two more scores before halftime, taking what felt like a commanding 21-3 lead into the locker room. [continued on page 50]

2012[ CSEASON IN REVIEW ONTINUED FROM PAGE 49] Thiel had other plans as its defense forced Thomas More to go three-and-out to start the second half. The Tomcat offense marched 48 yards on the ensuing possession, capped off by an 11-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Andrew Smith to fullback Rich Smallwood. Fennick’s first-ever point-after-touchdown kick tattooed the left upright to keep the score, 21-9. After a Bill Frizzi return gave the Tomcats the ball at their own 24-yard line with 14:53 to play in the fourth quarter, the Tomcats marched 76 yards to the end zone. Smith played a key role on the drive with a 16-yard pass to Smallwood, a run of 21 yards and a touchdown run from eight yards out to get the Tomcats within five points of the Saints, 21-16. After the two sides traded three-and-outs, the Thiel defense was back on the field with 5:44 to play. The Saints ran three plays but went nowhere as the Tomcat D pushed them back four yards, bringing out the punt team. Frizzi returned the ball eight yards setting up the Tomcats at their own 29-yard line with 3:52 to play. However, on first down, Thomas More’s Kenny Veal stepped in front of Zane Garza on Smith’s pass and returned it 28 yards to the Thiel 20-yard line. Six plays later, Adam Rauch punched it in from four yards out to give the Saints a 28-16 lead. Smith finished the game 21-of-31. He threw for 141 yards and one touchdown pass. He also ran for 81 yards on 15 carries. GAME EIGHT

Bethany 26 Thiel 13 GREENVILLE, Pa. (Oct. 27, 2012) – Quarterback Matt Grimard ran for two touchdowns and threw for a touchdown to lead the visiting Bethany Bison to a 26-13 win over the Thiel Tomcats at Alumni Stadium. The Tomcats held the momentum early in the game after they mounted an 8-play, 53-yard drive on their opening possession to take an early 7-0 lead. Freshman running back Josh Potter highlighted the drive with seven carries for 27 yards before quarterback Andrew Smith scored on a 1-yard touchdown run with 11:11 remaining in the first quarter. Bethany threatened to score on two drives in the second quarter. The first of those drives, which began on the last play of the first quarter, ended at the Thiel 31-yard line when Grimard’s fourth-down pass intended for Ed Holmes fell incomplete. On their next possession, the Bison drove down to the Thiel 14-yard line, but Grimard’s pass on third-and-goal was intercepted at the goal line by Thiel defensive back Julian McLean, who returned the ball to the 17. The Tomcats picked up one first down on their

ensuing possession on a 24-yard run by Potter, but the drive stalled at the Thiel 41-yard line. Bethany went on to score on its next possession, capping off a 10-play, 79-yard drive with 36 seconds left in the first half when Grimard scored on a 14-yard run. The extra point attempt was no good, however, and the Tomcats held a slim 1-point lead at the half. The Bison drove down to the Thiel 19-yard line on the opening possession of the second half but could not convert a crucial fourth-and-4 play to keep possession. The Tomcats responded with a long drive of their own on the following drive but, like the Bison the series before, could not convert an important fourth-and-4 play at the Bethany 22. After Bethany went 3-and-out on its next series, Thiel mounted another long drive that appeared to end with a Jon Fennick 36-yard field goal. However, Bethany was flagged for roughing the kicker on the play, which gave the Tomcats a fresh set of downs at the 10-yard line. The drive was halted two plays later, however, when Jordan Joyce intercepted a Smith pass. Bethany’s offense then embarked on what would eventually count as the game-winning drive. Grimard ran for a first down on the drive and threw for two first downs before scoring on a 5-yard run to cap the 12-play, 87-yard drive. Later in the fourth, Grimard went on to throw a 43-yard touchdown pass to Eric Blinn and Phil Acrie scored a touchdown on an 11-yard run. Thiel’s offense was able to mount a good drive late in the fourth quarter that ended with a 17-yard pass from Smith to receiver Zane Garza. Taylor Fink paced the Tomcats on the ground with 12 carries for 92 yards. GAME NINE

Thiel16 Westminster 10 NEW WILMINGTON, Pa. (Nov. 3, 2012) – A 17-yard touchdown return on a punt block by Thiel defensive back Brandon Wolfe on the first series of the game set the tone for a hard-fought 16-10 victory over the Westminster Titans. Tim Canady broke through the line and blocked Jake Schnelbach’s punt, and Wolfe picked up the ball at the 17-yard line and scurried into the end zone down the near side of the field. The Tomcats increased their lead to 10-0 as time expired in the first half when Jon Fennick split the uprights on a 30-yard field goal. Fennick’s field goal capped off an 11-play march that was flawlessly orchestrated by quarterback Andrew Smith, who completed all seven of his passes on the drive and all 11 of his first-half passes.

After the Tomcats went three-and-out on the opening drive of the third quarter, the Titans needed just three plays to score their first touchdown of the game on a 29-yard pass from Dak Britt to Tyler Banks. Thiel scored its second TD of the game with less than five minutes remaining in the fourth quarter when Smith finished off a 14-play drive with an 11-yard TD run. The Titans were able to close the gap on their next possession when Baker knocked in a 32-yard field to cut the lead back to 16-10, but the Tomcats kept the Titans off the scoreboard the rest of the way to seal the win. Thiel’s defense held Westminster to just 15 rushing yards on 21 carries. In addition, Westminster managed just nine first downs. Thiel dominated the time of possession battle 37:32-22:28. The Tomcats also outgained the Titans, 276-165. GAME TEN

Grove City 21 Thiel 7 GROVE CITY, Pa. (Nov. 10, 2012) – Grove City defeated Thiel 21-7 to retain possession of the Mercer County Cup. Quarterback Brian Pell led the Wolverines to their first TD late in the first quarter. Pell connected on passes of 13 and 23 yards during the drive before delivering a TD strike to Anthony Ritchie from 10 yards out. Pell struck again just before halftime when he doubled Grove City’s lead to 14-0 when he rifled his second TD pass of the game to Ritchie. After receiving the opening kickoff in the third quarter, Thiel marched 86 yards in eight plays to cut Grove City’s lead down to 14-7. Running back Josh Potter carried six times on the series, including a season-long 50-yard gash and the TD run up the middle from nine yards out. The Tomcat offense went back to work after the punt, piecing together a lengthy 14-play drive that included six first downs and absorbed five minutes and thirty seconds of the third quarter clock. Potter appeared to trim Grove City’s lead to 14-13 when he ran into the end zone from eight yards out on first-and-goal, but the Tomcats were flagged for holding on the play and fumbled on the next play. Grove City made Thiel pay for the fumble when Pell scored a TD on a 4-yard run with less than 11 minutes remaining in regulation. Thiel drove the length of the field again on its next possession, but could not get the ball into the end zone. Thiel had two individual 100-yard rushers in the game – Potter (18-139) and Taylor Fink (14103) – for the first time since Sept. 29, 2007.

Media & Opponent Information

PRESIDENTS’ ATHLETIC CONFERENCE Founded in 1955, the Presidents’ Athletic Conference (PAC) continues its mission of promoting intercollegiate athletics and the pursuit of academic excellence. Comprised of 10 select private colleges – Bethany College, Chatham University, Geneva College, Grove City College, Saint Vincent College, Thiel College, Thomas More College, Washington and Jefferson College, Waynesburg University and Westminster College – the PAC remains a unique organization in this day of high pressure intercollegiate athletics. With academics at the center of each member’s philosophy, the PAC is built on the principle that an athletic program is a part of college life, but not an entity in itself. The PAC expanded to seven members in 2005 with the addition of Thomas More, formerly a NCAA Division III independent. Saint Vincent College, a NAIA member, joined the conference as it began provisional membership status in NCAA Division III in 2006-07. Another NAIA member, Geneva College, became the conference’s ninth member and began league play as it started NCAA Division III provisional membership in 2007-08. Chatham College (now University) became the league’s 10th member, also in 2007-08. In 2012, the PAC voted to add Carnegie Mellon University and Case Western Reserve University as affiliate members in the sport of football beginning in 2014. The PAC annually crowns champions and awards All-conference status in all 19 league sports. Head coaches select all-PAC squads for all team sports, while in individual sports such as cross country and tennis, all-PAC accolades are based upon performances at the conference championships. The PAC annually awards its men’s and women’s All-Sports Trophies to the schools which perform best across the board in PAC competition. The Washington & Jefferson men and Grove City women captured the 2012-13 trophies. True to its mission, the PAC has produced numerous Academic All-Americans and NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship winners. Last year, the league named 853 student-athletes to the PAC Academic Honor Roll, which recognizes all participating athletes who attain a term grade-point average of 3.60 or above.

Washington & Jefferson Men, Grove City Women Capture 2012-13 PAC All-Sports Trophies GREENVILLE, Pa. – The Washington & Jefferson College men and Grove City College women each captured the 2012-13 PAC All-Sports Trophies. The all-sports trophies are awarded annually to the schools which perform the best across the board in league competition. First-place finishes are worth nine points (eight for men), second place is worth eight points (seven for men) ... last place is worth one point. 2012-13 MEN’S ALL SPORTS TROPHY FINAL STANDINGS 1.
