Don Carthel Head Coach
eighth Season Eastern New Mexico ‘74 To say that Don Carthel has elevated the West Texas A&M football to that of national prominence would be an understatement. What Carthel, who earned his 100th career collegiate victory Sept 28, 2010, in a 37-27 win at Angelo State, has accomplished over the past seven seasons at WTAMU is simply amazing. He took a program that had won just seven games combined over the previous four years and guided it to seven winning seasons, five NCAA Division-II playoff appearances, four LSC South Division titles, three-consecutive Lone Star Conference Championships, a bowl appearance - and 67 victories. During his first season in Canyon, Carthel and the Buffs surprised everyone, having been picked to finish last in the LSC preseason poll, as they registered a 10-1 regular season record and captured the school’s first Lone Star Conference Championship in 19 years. Excitement surrounding Carthel’s program was evident as attendance soared, with a regular-season average of over 14,000 fans per game at Kimbrough Memorial Stadium. Carthel was honored by his peers as the 2005 LSC Coach of the Year. Following that breakout campaign, Carthel set out in 2006 to let the LSC and the rest of NCAA Division II know that WT’s 2005’s success was no fluke. The Buffs left little doubt, as they posted an 11-2 season and became the first squad in school history to claim back-toback outright conference championships. After leading the country in Division II average attendance the previous year, Buff fans again came out in droves, helping WT to again rank first, nationally, in total attendance. That only set the stage for what was to come during the 2007 campaign, as the Buffs confidently went about amassing the school’s first-ever undefeated regular season, going 11-0 to claiming a third-straight Lone Star Conference championship and advance two rounds into the NCAA post-season playoffs.

Another 11-win, record shattering campaign followed in 2008, as the Buffs again were among the biggest draws in NCAA Division II. That season saw Carthel’s squad set no fewer than 15 team, 21 individual, 26 LSC and eight NCAA playoff records.

In 2009, playing a schedule that featured six nationally-ranked opponents, and playing the nation’s thentop-ranked team twice, Carthel rallied an injury-riddled squad from a 1-5 start to six consecutive wins - posting a 7-5 mark and the school’s first bowl appearance since the 1967 season. He then guided his 2010 squad to a sixth-consecutive winning season and a fifth NCAA playoff appearance. The 2011 season saw the Buffs finish 8-3 overall including a 6-2 mark in the LSC with an appearance in their second Kanza Bowl, a 26-7 victory over Central Missouri. But this isn’t the first taste of success for the Friona, Texas, native, as he has enjoyed several successful coaching stops during his career, including time at LSCrival Eastern New Mexico, Texas-El Paso and Dubuque.
Carthel graduated from ENMU with a bachelor’s degree in Physical Education and a minor in Mathematics in 1974, then obtained his master’s in Physical Education in 1975. He played center for the Greyhounds from 1970-73, helping ENMU to a No. 17 NAIA ranking his senior season. In addition to his efforts on the gridiron, Carthel also threw discus for ENMU’s 1974 national championship squad. In 1975, Carthel began his coaching career at Floydada High School, serving as the defensive coordinator under Hall of Fame coach L.G. Wilson. He helped lead the Whirlwinds to district championships in both 1975 and 1976. In 1977, Carthel moved up to the collegiate ranks, beginning at NCAA Division-III Dubuque University (Iowa). He was assistant head coach/defensive coordinator for the Spartans from 1977-79 and helped turn around a program that had won just three games over the previous four years. Carthel helped lead Dubuque to back-to-back Iowa Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (IIAC) championships in 1978 and 1979, as well as the NCAA Division III playoffs. During 1979, Dubuque was undefeated and ranked No. 3 in the country.

Carthel then moved on to become an assistant coach at the University of Texas-El Paso (UTEP) from 1983-84 before returning to his alma mater to serve as head coach from 1985-91. While head coach at ENMU, Carthel helped the Greyhounds make the transition from NAIA to NCAA Division II, becoming one the top programs in the LSC. In 1985, during Carthel’s first year at the helm, the Greyhounds faced Texas A&I (now Texas A&M University-Kingsville) in the season finale for a share of the LSC title. Despite narrowly losing that game, 21-17, the Greyhounds surged to the top of the LSC, claiming the conference crown in 1991 and becoming the first team outside of Texas to win the LSC championship in the conference’s 59 years of football. Carthel compiled a 44-28-1 (.610) ledger in his seven years at ENMU, winning seven or more games in five of his seven seasons, including opening the 1987 season with a 9-0 record and tying the school record for victories in a season. In five of Carthel’s seven years, the Greyhounds were ranked in the Division II Top 20 poll. In 2001, Carthel was honored with the induction into the ENMU Hall of Fame. In January, 1992, Carthel resigned from coaching to return to Friona, where he farmed, raised his family and served on the Friona school board for the next nine years. However, Carthel could not stay away from coach-

all-time Coaching history
During that time, his son, Colby, was a standout linebacker at Angelo State University, leading the Rams to the LSC South title in 1999. The younger Carthel would join the ACU staff in 2000 as the recruiting coordinator and defensive line coach. In Abilene, father and son enjoyed their first coaching stint on the same sideline, a scenario that would repeat itself in 2006 when Colby joined the WT football staff as the Buffs’ defensive coordinator.

Amarillo posted a 15-3 record under Carthel and won the IFL Championship. Carthel resigned from the Dusters three games into the 2005 season to take the reins at West Texas A&M. Carthel received honors from the Panhandle Sports Hall of Fame after the Buffs’ sensational 2005 season. In addition, Carthel has garnered the Coach of the Year award from the IFL, as well as being named to the Panhandle Sports Hall of Fame in 2004 for leading the Dusters to the IFL crown. That honor accompanies his 1991 Panhandle Sports Hall of Fame Honor for leading the ENMU football program to the LSC Championship. Born in Dimmitt, Texas, Carthel was raised in Friona, where as a child, he and his brothers found rides to Canyon to watch WT football and basketball games. Carthel and his wife, the former Cindy Phillips, of Farwell, Texas, have been married for 37 years and have two adult children, Colby (the Buffs’ defensive coordinator) and Courtney as well as three grandchildren.

csu-pueblo drops no. 19 buffaloes in season opener, 26-24 CANYON, Texas – The No. 19-ranked West Texas A&M Buffaloes took a fourpoint lead into the fourth quarter, but a pair of field goals from Colorado State-Pueblo helped the Thunderwolves knock-off the Buffs in the season-opener at Kimbrough Memorial Stadium in Canyon, Texas, Thursday night. The Buffs took a seven-point lead with 6:43 left in the third quarter on a 33-yard from Khiry Robinson, but it wasn’t enough as the Thunderwolves scored nine-unanswered points to take the season-opening win from the Buffs. CSUP’s Kyle Major made field goals from 38 yards, and a pair of 40 yarders to give the Thunderwolves a 26-24 lead with 5:00 minutes left. WT drove the field with the next possession, but the offense stalled at the Thunderwolves’ 40-yard line allowing CSUP to run-out the majority of the rest of the clock. WTAMU had one final chance, getting the ball back with 27 seconds remaining, but following a one-yard loss on a rush, the offense tallied just 22 more yards as time expired. The Thunderwolves opened the game with the ball, but on third-and-10, WT’s Anthony Scott forced CSUP’s Ross Dausin to fumble and Keith Voss recovered the football on the Thunderwolves 24-yard line. Then, what just took nine seconds, Tommy Hampton scampered his way to the end zone on the first offensive play of the season for the Buffaloes, giving WT a quick 7-0 lead with 13:45 still remaining in the first quarter. Following a CSUP drive that was stalled at the Thunderwolves 47 yard line, the Buffs then extended its lead to 10-0 with 10:07 left on the clock on a Sergio Castillo, Jr., field goal from 23-yards out. The kick came after a scoring drive of 12 plays for 69 yards in 3:55. The Thunderwolves put-up its first points of the game on three-play scoring drive that went 60 yards in 37 seconds, when Dausin crossed the goal line on a one-yard touchdown run. The score came after a 56-yard pass completion from Dausin to Deontrae Cooper that put the Thunderwolves at the WT one-yard line. WT countered with a long bomb from Tanner Marsh to Brittan Golden that went 71-yards. Marsh opened the drive with a nine-yard pass to Trevor Hammargren then completed the drive with the touchdown toss to Golden, giving the Buffs a 17-7 lead following the two-play, 80y-yard drive that lasted all of 38 seconds. Both the Thunderwolves and Buffs each had to punt on its next possessions, but CSUP then put together a 13-play, 74-yard drive that ended with Dausin collecting his second touchdown of the game – another one-yard run that took 3:51 off the clock. CSUP’s deficit decreased to just three points, but a WT fumble gave the ThunderWolves the ball with 2:55 left and CSUP took advantage of the Buffalo mishap. The drive just took four plays, but CSUP tied the game on a 52-yard field goal from Kyle Major to tie the game 17-17 with 1:11 remaining in the first-half.

SATURday, September 17, 2011 • cowboy stadium • arlington, texas • (24,837)
buffs top no. 5 javelinas at lsc football festival, 42-21 ARLINGTON, Texas – West Texas A&M’s Dustin Vaughan (So-1L, Corpus Christi, Texas) was making his first-ever collegiate start, and all the sophomore quarterback did was complete 24 passes for 384 yards and throw for three touchdowns, while guiding the Buffaloes to a 42-21 victory over No. 5-ranked Texas A&M-Kingsville before an Lone Star Conference-record crowd of 24,276 people at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Saturday night. Vaughan, who was named the Buff’s starting quarterback earlier in the week, drove the field with his first possession and guided WT to a 7-0 lead with 11:30 remaining in the first quarter, following his 11-yard touchdown strike to Lance Ratliff (So-1L, Lubbock, Texas). The drive ended following seven plays for 65 yards that took 3:30 off the clock. It was Vaughan’s first career touchdown pass, as well as Ratliff’s first TD reception. WT then took a 10-point lead at the 5:41 mark in the first quarter as Sergio Castillo, Jr., (So-1L, La Joya, Texas) kicked a 36-yard field goal to cap-off a 12-play, 55-yard drive that lasted 3:48. Castillo again put up another field goal with 12:28 remaining in the second quarter to give the Buffs a 13-0 lead. His 25-yard field goal capped off an 11-play, 68 yard drive that took 3:24 off the clock. With just over three minutes left to play in the first-half, WT linebacker Zane Farris (Sr-3L, Nazareth, Texas) sacked TAMUK quarterback Nate Poppell at the Javelinas’ 17-yard line and forced a fumble that fellow linebacker, Kevin McCluskey (Jr-2L, Waxahachie, Texas), scooped up at the 18-yard line and took it all the way back to score his first-ever defensive touchdown, giving the Buffs a 19-0 lead with 3:10 left to play. Castillo’s extra point attempt was good, putting WT on top, 20-0. The Javelinas finally got on the board with 39 seconds left to play in the first-half, with a touchdown pass from Daniel Ramirez to Robert Armstrong. Matt Stoll’s extra point made it a 20-7 game, capping off a 2-play, 20 yard drive by the Javelinas that took :59 off the clock. WT took a 21-point lead with 10:54 remaining in the third quarter, when Vaughan hooked up with Jeremy Watson for a 43-yard touchdown pass. The Buffs then used the swinging gate on the ensuing extra point and linebacker Anthony Scott (Sr-3L, Amarillo, Texas) ran in the ball for a two-point conversion to put the Buffs up 28-7. Flashbacks from 2010 came over the next 10 minutes of play, as TAMUK scored back-to-back touchdowns to pull within seven points of the Buffs, but WT iced the game with another TD pass from Vaughan with :25 left on the clock in the third quarter. This time the sophomore hooked up with Torrence Allen (So-1L, Meridian, Texas) for a 61-yard touchdown strike. It was the first play from scrimmage, taking all of eight seconds off the clock to give the Buffs a 35-21 lead.

TAMUK used the remaining 3:32 to drive 76 yards, but their attempts to get the ball into the end zone one final time failed following a pair of incomplete passes and then a fumble on the final play of the game. WT finished the game tallying 421 yards of total offense while TAMUK tallied 437 yards in the game. WT wide receiver Brittan Golden (Sr-3L, Denver City, Texas) finished the game with seven catches for 131 yards.

2011 game recaps - Game 3 incarnate word at #21 West Texas A&m
no. 21 west texas a&m routs incarnate word, 52-7 CANYON, Texas – The No. 21 West Texas A&M Buffaloes took a 7-0 lead after just two plays on offense and never looked back, downing the Incarnate Word Cardinals, 52-7, Saturday night at Kimbrough Memorial Stadium in Canyon. The Buffs improved to 2-1 overall on the season and remain perfect in Lone Star Conference games at 2-0. The Cardinals dropped to 1-3 overall and 1-1 in LSC play. “We came out of the starting blocks really well again tonight and that is a sign of good preparation,” WT head football coach Don Carthel said. “Our coaches did a really good job this week in getting these guys ready to play and stay focused. We had our best week of practice that we have had in a really long time and the guys were ready to play. They wanted to come out her to Kimbrough and show these fans that we have a good ball club.” WT didn’t waste any time getting on the scoreboard as Dustin Vaughan and Lance Ratliff hooked up for the game’s first touchdown for the second-straight game. This time the duo paired up for a 62-yard strike that the sophomore wideout took all the way to the other end of the field to quickly put the Buffs in the end zone. Sergio Castillo, Jr., then put up the extra point to give the Buffs the quick 7-0. The Buffs went three-and-out on its ensuing possession, but WT then opened up its fourth possession of the game at the 3:45 mark in the first quarter en route to a 10 play, 92-yard drive that took 3:34 off the clock. Vaughan’s first pass was incomplete, but the sophomore quarterback followed it up with five-straight completions. His fifth completion went to Tommy Hampton for 13 yards, but a holding penalty brought the ball back to the WT 46-yard line, which put the Buffs at 1st-and-20. Two incompletions later, Vaughan threw a strike to Jeremy Watson for a 52-yard touchdown pass. The extra point was good and WT went up 14-0 with just :11 seconds to play in the first quarter. The Buffs took a 17-point lead with 13:18 left to play in the first-half on Castillo’s 28-yard field goal. WT had the ball inside its own 10-yard line following a blocked punt by Nathan Slaughter, but UIW’s defense held strong and allowed just the three points. WT’s next drive started with 10:40 left to play in the half and ended with another touchdown pass from Vaughan. This time the quarterback hooked up with Brittan Golden for a 13-yard touchdown reception that went seven plays for 68 yards and took 3:08 off the clock. The Cardinals finally got on the board as time expired in the first half. UIW’s Payden Lynch looked to be out of options as WT’s defense forced him out of the pocket, but as the clock struck 00:00, the quarterback found Jacob Love in the back of the end zone for the score. The Cardinal’s Thomas Rebold was good on the extra point and both teams headed to the locker room with the Buffs up 24-7. The Buffs opened up the second half just like they did the first, with another touchdown score. Vaughan and Golden hooked up for the second time on the night, this time for a 52-yard touchdown that took five plays for 76 yards to put WT up 31-7 with 12:20

left in the third quarter. Less than four minutes later, the Buffs took a 31-point lead on Caleb Randolph’s 97-yard fumble return that went for a touchdown. Lynch’s pass was complete to Love, but Curtis Jefferson stripped the ball away and Randolph recovered the fumble at the three-yard line. He then went the distance, breaking a few tackles on the way to the end zone. Castillo’s extra point was good and WT led 38-7 with 8:43 left to play in the quarter. The Buffs next drive started with 5:44 left in the third quarter and ended, yet again, with another touchdown pass from Vaughan. This time the quarterback found tailback Khiry Robinson on a swing pass that he took nine yards to the end zone. Following the extra point, WT’s lead grew to 45-7 with 3:02 left to play in the third quarter.

WT’s Curtis Slater just stripped the ball away from UIW’s quarterback at the Cardinal eight-yard line and then ran the short distance to pay-dirt. Castillo was again good on the extra point and the Buffs led 52-7. Neither offense scored in the second half. WT’s Tanner Marsh relieved Vaughan in quarterback duties and completed five of his nine passes for 75 yards with one interception. The junior quarterback carried the ball twice for 10 yards as well. Vaughan finished the evening completing 19 of his 25 pass attempts for 335 yards and threw a career-high five touchdowns. He had the one interception, but was not sacked at all on the evening. Both Vaughan and Marsh did a very good job of spreading the ball out on the evening, targeting 11 receivers for a total of 24 receptions. Watson and Robinson led the team with four catches each and Watson’s 94 yards receiving were tops on the team. Hampton led the ground game collecting 21 yards on six attempts. Robinson tallied 18 yards on six carries as well. The Buffs racked up a total of 474 yards on the night and the defense held the Cardinals to just 270 yards of offense – including just 67 total yards on the ground.

Michael Odiari was next in tackles, totaling seven tackles with one solo tackle. Mario Goins was responsible for both interceptions that Lynch threw.

2011 game recaps - Game 4 #20 West Texas A&m at tarleton state
SATURday, october 1, 2011 • memorial Stadium • Stephenville, Texas • (7,534)
no. 20 wt rolls tarleton state on the road, 44-13 STEPHENVILLE, Texas – The No. 20-ranked West Texas A&M Buffaloes trailed 7-0 with just 15 seconds coming off the clock, but the team countered the Tarleton’s quick strike and outscored the Texans 44-6 over the final 59:45 of the contest, en route to a 44-13 win at Memorial Stadium in Stephenville, Texas, Saturday night. The Buffs improved to 3-1 overall on the season and remain perfect in Lone Star Conference play at 3-0. The Texans drop to 1-4 overall and are now 1-2 in the LSC. “It was a dog fight,” WTAMU head football coach Don Carthel said. “They came out and knocked us down early, but we got back up and played good Buffalo football. It is always nice to get wins on the road and when coming into a hostile environment like this and play the way we did, it is just extra special.” Tarleton’s Nick Stephens ran a play-action-pass on the very first play of the game and it worked to perfection for the Texans as he hit a wide-open Clifton Rhodes for a 70-yard touchdown strike to quickly give the Texans a 6-0 lead with just 15 seconds coming off the clock. Jerry Owens’ extra point was good and Tarleton led 7-0 with 14:45 left to play in the first quarter. The Buffs countered right back though on its ensuing possession, working a 6-play, 58-yard drive to tie the game 7-7. Tommy Hampton rushed the ball for eight yards on the first play from scrimmage and Dustin Vaughan completed three-straight passes, with his third one going to Nathan Slaughter for 32 yards to put WT at the 1-yard line. Khiry Robinson finished the drive off with a one-yard run into the end zone and Sergio Castillo, Jr., connected on the extra point to tie the game with 11:56 left in the first quarter. Tarleton then took a three-point lead on its next possession with a 28-yard field goal. His kick finished off a nine-play, 75-yard drive that spanned over two and half minutes and the Texans led 10-7 with 9:09 left in the first quarter. The Buffs went three-and-out on its next possession, but the defense held its ground – sacking Stephens in the end zone for a safety. D.J. Ross came off the edge and forced Stephens out of the pocket, but Ross was too quick and got to the quarterback to pull the Buffs within a point, down 10-9 with 7:28 left in the first quarter. Vaughan opened the second quarter completing three-straight passes that put the Buffs down to the two-yard line. Robinson then hit pay-dirt for the second time with 14:06 left to play in the half, completing a nine-play, 71 yard drive into the end zone. Castillo’s extra point was good and the Buffs led 16-10. Tarleton pulled to within three points with 4:55 left to play on another field goal from Owens – a 40-yard field goal that made it a 16-13 game still in favor of the Buffs. WT had two more possessions over the final five minutes of the first-half, but could not get back into the end zone or close enough to try a field goal. Instead, the

angelo state at #20 west texas A&M (Homecoming)
no. 20 buffs win 7th straight homecoming over rams, 19-7 CANYON, Texas – The No. 20 West Texas A&M Buffaloes did not score on its first possession of the game as it has in the previous four games, but that did not stop the team from winning its seventh-straight Homecoming contest – downing Angelo State 19-7 in front of a crowd of 14,577 at Kimbrough Memorial Stadium in Canyon on Saturday. The Buffs improved to 4-1 overall and remain perfect in Lone Star Conference play with the win over the Rams. ASU meanwhile falls to 3-3 overall and lose its third-straight LSC game to go to 0-3 in the standings. It was a very uneventful first-half for both teams as WT took a 7-0 lead into the locker room. Both teams combined for just 258 yards of total offense and scoring just the one touchdown between them. After a 0-0 first quarter, WT finally got on the scoreboard with 2:21 left to play before the break. Tommy Hampton took a screen pass from quarterback Dustin Vaughan for 36 yards before finally jumping into the end zone for the score. Sergio Castillo, Jr., came on for the extra point and his kick capped off a three-play, 40 yard drive that took 1:09 off the clock. There was not any other scoring in the half, but both teams failed to make its respective field goal attempts. ASU’s Jarred Martin missed a 30-yard attempt with 8:26 left in the second quarter as his kick missed wide-left. Castillo’s 48-yard attempt for the Buffs was wide-left as well, when he missed with 5:04 left on the clock. Both Vaughan and Khiry Robinson led the Buffs on the ground, gaining 19 yards each on four carries. Hampton led in receiving as he tallied 43 yards on two catches, including the 36-yard touchdown. Vaughan was 7-for-14 for 97 yards and the one TD pass. He did not throw an interception, but he was sacked three times in the half. ASU’s Tristian Carter led the Rams on the ground with 31 yards at the break. Jake Strickler came into the game for starting quarterback Blake Hamblin and he led the team in passing, completing 11 of his 19 pass attempts for 85 yards. He was intercepted once as WT’s John McSheffery picked off his pass in the end zone as the first-half ended. C.J. Akins led the Rams in receiving, catching four passes for 44 yards. Castillo got the Buffs back on the board with a 32-yard field goal at the 11:37 mark of the third quarter to put WT on top 10-0. His field goal capped off WT’s first possession of the second-half, which went eight plays for 36 yards and took 2:00 off of the clock. Brittan Golden looked as if he scored his second-straight punt return for a touchdown with 13:23 left to play in the fourth quarter, but a pair of penalties on the

Buffaloes brought both scores back. The senior wide receiver took the first punt return for 80 yards, but he was called for an illegal advance on the ball after signaling a fair catch. On ASU’s next possession, the Rams punted to Golden again and he looked to take it all the way back again – this time from 88 yards out. But just as he was about waltz into the end zone, the play was called back for an illegal block in the back. The Buffs would not let the penalty affect the drive though, as Robinson hit pay-dirt just two plays later from 23-yards out. His fifth rushing touchdown of the season put the Buffs on top 16-0 and Castillo’s extra point made it a 17-point lead with 12:11 left in the contest. Torrence Allen helped make it a 19-0 game with his blocked punt that went out of the end zone for a safety with 12:16 left to play. ASU’s drive started at their own 12-yard line and then following a three-and-out, Allen came through for the block that ASU’s George Shamblen kicked from the Rams’ own end zone. The Buffs were 16 seconds away from recording its first shutout since Nov. 8, 2008, when WT throttled Tarleton 51-0, but ASU’s Strickler connected with Akins from 26 yards out to put the Rams on the scoreboard – ending all hopes of the shutout. Despite not shutting out the Rams, the Buffs were able to improve to 10-14 overall in the all-time series, which includes a 3-2 record over ASU in homecoming contests. WT improved to 41-26-2 all-time in homecoming contests as well. WT leaders on the evening include Robinson carrying the ball 10 times for 68 yards and a score, Nathan Slaughter collecting four catches for a team-high 51 yards and Vaughan completing 12 of his 30 pass attempts for 150 yards and the one touchdown toss. The sophomore did not throw an interception in the game, making it two straight-games without a pick. The punters for both teams had a heavy load in this defense-minded battle. WT’s Kevin VanVoris tallied seven punts on the evening for a total of 334 yards (47.7 avg). He had a long punt of 56 yards and put two of his punts inside the opponent’s 20-yard line.

SATURday, OCTOber 15, 2011 • shotwell stadium • abilene, Texas • (10,246)
no. 10 wildcats outlast no. 17 buffs in abilene, 28-18 ABILENE, Texas – For the first time since 2003 the home team prevailed in a regular-season contest between West Texas A&M and Abilene Christian, as the No. 10-ranked Wildcats downed the No. 17-ranked Buffaloes, 28-18, in front of a crowd of 10,246 at Shotwell Stadium in Abilene on Saturday. WTAMU quarterback Dustin Vaughan threw for 314 yards, completing 27 of his 53 passes and had a pair of touchdowns, but it wasn’t enough as the Buffs fell to 4-2 overall and 4-1 in the Lone Star Conference. ACU’s Mitchell Gale tallied 305 yards in the air, completing 18 of his 31 passes while guiding the Wildcats to a 5-1 overall record. ACU remains perfect in LSC play, improving to 4-0 on the season. The Buffaloes were able to get on the scoreboard first, taking a 3-0 lead on a 44-yard field goal from Sergio Castillo, Jr., with 3:29 left to play in the first quarter. Following a three-and-out from ACU, WT took its next possession from its own 28-yard line. The Buffs picked their way past midfield, but the drive stalled on a fourth down and 17. The WT offense called a timeout and then came back onto the field with Vaughan under center. But Vaughan did not attempt an offensive play, instead the quarterback pooched a punt that rolled all the way down to the ACU 1-yard line and was downed. ACU’s Daryl Richardson was stopped at the three-yard line on the first play from scrimmage, but Gale hooked up with tight end Ben Gibbs on the next play that went for 75 yards down to the WT 22-yard line. Gale just hit a little dump pass to the tight end, but the middle of the field was wide open and Gibbs did the rest, going out of bounds following a 75-yard catch-and-run. Gale then completed an 18-yard pass to Justin Andrews and then one play later, Taylor Gabriel capped off a six-play, 99-yard drive that took just over two minutes off the clock with his one-yard touchdown run. Morgan Lineberrry’s extra point was good and ACU took the lead 7-3 with 10:22 left to play in the first half. The Buffs would drive the field on its next possession, getting the ball all the way to the ACU 44-yard line following a 34-yard reception from Vaughan to Jeremy Watson. On third-and-10, Vaughan then dumped the ball off to Khiry Robinson and he took it 19 yards, breaking tackles on the way – just before getting the ball stripped from his hands. ACU’s Darien Williams recovered the ball and ACU took over at the 25-yard line. Gale then completed three-straight passes that took the Wildcats all the way down to the WT 4-yard line and Reggie Brown capped the drive off with a four-yard touchdown run. Lineberry’s PAT was good and ACU led 14-3 with 7:36 left to play. The Buffaloes were able to drive the length of the field again on its very next possession, but this time the drive wouldn’t stall with a punt or a turnover as Vaughan completed six of his eight passes on the drive and his final pass going to Watson for a 12-yard touchdown grab. The key play of the drive was when Vaughan hit Trevor Hammargren on a thirdand-17 play for 19 yards to give the Buffs the first down. He later found Watson in the end zone and Castillo’s PAT made it a 14-10 game still in favor of the Wildcats with 3:04 left to play. The Buffs were forced to punt on its first possession of the second half and again WT found a way to pin the Wildcats inside its own five-yard line – this time placing the punt at

the 2-yard line. More bad field position for the Wildcats, but more of the same from the offense as ACU drove the field again – this time for 98 yards on 17 plays that took a full 6:06 off of the clock. Gale capped off the drive hitting Jamaine Sherman 18 yards out on a pass he just put up for grabs. Sherman came down with it to score and Lineberry came in for the extra point to put ACU on top 21-10 with 4:43 left to play in the third quarter. WT drove the field again in its next possession, beginning the drive at its own 38-yard line before marching down field. Late in the drive, Vaughan was sacked all the way back on the ACU 29-yard line, but two plays later he got the Buffs down to the 12-yard line with a 17-yard rush. But his run came on a third-and-20, giving the Buffs a fourth down and three yards to go situation. WT elected to go for it, down 11 points, but Vaughan’s pass was broken up at the line of scrimmage by ACU linebacker Thor Woerner giving the Wildcats back the ball with 1:55 left to play in the third quarter. With 8:43 left to play in the game the Buffs’ defense forced ACU to punt. ACU’s deep snapper, Brent Schroeder, had a bad snap that was low and it forced punter Spencer Covey down to go get it and he was tackled on the play giving the Buffs the ball at the ACU 9-yard line. One play later, Vaughan found Brittan Golden in the end zone for a nineyard touchdown reception to make it a 21-16 game. Castillo came on for the PAT, but WT holder John McSheffery executed the fake to the right side and he scored making it a 21-18 game with 8:38 left to play. Just as quickly as the Buffs scored, back came ACU with a 53-yard touchdown pass from Gale to Andrews to make it a 27-18 game. Lineberry’s PAT was good and the Wildcats increased its lead to 10 points with 8:21 left in the contest. WT would get the ball back three more times over the last eight minutes of the game, but ACU’s offense prevailed – forcing a punt and two turnovers on downs. WT recorded 360 yards of total offense, while ACU racked up 400 yards on the day. Both teams tallied over 70 plays each, with WT averaging just under five yards per play and ACU gaining 5.6 yards a play. Vaughan rushed the ball for 56 yards on the day, but he was sacked seven times for a loss of 45 yards and giving him a net total of just 11 yards on the ground. Tommy Hampton rushed the ball six times for a team-leading 27 yards on the ground. Lance Ratliff recorded a career-high seven catches for 70 yards on the afternoon and both Torrence Allen and Nathan Slaughter each grabbed four passes. Vaughan targeted nine different WT receivers on the day. Jordan Smith led the defense with 12 total tackles (eight solo) and fellow defensive back Curtis Jefferson tallied nine tackles (seven solo) right behind him. Anthony Scott and D.J. Ross each tallied a sack for the Buffs, with both of them coming on ACU’s first drive of the game.

SATURday, OCTOber 29, 2011 • Kimbrough Memorial Stadium • Canyon, Texas • (4,427)
strong second half lifts No. 20 wt past wildcats, 49-35 CANYON, Texas – The No. 20-ranked West Texas A&M Buffaloes outscored the visiting Central Washington Wildcats 28-14 in the second half, on the way to a 49-35 non-conference victory at Kimbrough Memorial Stadium in Canyon, Texas, on Saturday. CWU quarterback Jose Mohler hooked up with wide receiver Leon LaDeaux on the Wildcats’ first possession of the game for a 56-yard score to put CWU on top early, 6-0. Sean Davis then came on for the point-after-attempt to make it 7-0 and cap-off a fiveplay, 80 yard drive that took just 2:43 off the clock. The Buffs managed to get into CWU territory, but were unable to return the favor on its first possession. WT had a fourth down and two yards to go situation, but the Buffs were unable to convert the fourth down situation, and turned the ball over on downs. WT put its first points on the board with 28 seconds left in the first quarter, tying the game 7-7 following an 8-yard run from Tommy Hampton. Vaughan completed six of his seven passes on the drive, after starting the game completing just two of his first six passes. With the Buffs facing a second-down and one yard to go, Vaughan handed the ball off to the senior tailback and he scampered his way into the end zone. Sergio Castillo, Jr., was successful in his extra point try to tie the game up. Following punts from both teams, CWU got back on the board following a nine-play, 67 yard drive that ended with Mohler connecting with halfback Levi Taylor for a nine-yard touchdown. Davis’ PAT was good and the Wildcats led 14-7 with 7:20 left to play in the first half. Vaughan did not waste any time getting the Buffs back on the scoreboard though, completing all four of his passes on WT’s next possession and finally hitting Khiry Robinson for a 10-yard TD reception that took just 1:17 off the clock. Castillo’s PAT was good and WT managed to tie the Wildcats 14-14 with 5:55 remaining in the half. The Buffalo defense held CWU to a fourth down with less than four minutes to go in the first half, forcing the Wildcats to punt. Josef Kistler’s punt was downed at the 16 yard line and on WT’s first play from scrimmage, Hampton lost the handoff from Vaughan. CWU’s Matt Mosely picked up the fumble on the eight yard line and then went untouched into the end zone for the defensive score. The PAT was good and CWU took back a seven-point lead, 21-14 with 3:26 left in the second quarter. Vaughan and the Buffalo offense managed to get those points back though on the next possession, as he completed seven of eight passes before handing the ball off to Robinson for a two-yard touchdown run. The run capped off an eight-play, 68 yard drive and Castillo’s extra point tied the game 21-21. Golden collected his third catch of the evening on the drive, giving him 145 career receptions and tying Anthony Armstrong (2001-04) for eighth-place all-time in school history. WT’s opening possession of the second half came to an abrupt end when CWU’s Genesis Fonoimoana picked off Vaughan’s pass at the Wildcat 13-yard line. CWU then drove to midfield before WT’s Curtis Slater returned the favor with an interception of his own at WT’s own 44-yard line. Five plays later, Vaughan found Golden for a 26-yard touchdown

to give the Buffs its first lead of the night. It was Golden’s 147th career catch as he took over seventh-place all-time on the career receptions list, passing Ramon Perry (2005-06) on the list. Castillo’s PAT was good and WT led 28-21 with 8:38 left to play in the third quarter. WT looked as if they were going to increase their lead to 21 points when Curtis Jefferson picked off a pass from Mohler that he took all the way to the house, 77 yards later. Just as the team was celebrating Jefferson’s heroics, the play was called back due to a roughing the passer penalty. CWU was granted a 15-yard automatic first down instead, and a few plays later Mohler found Justin Helwege for a 22-yard score. Davis’s PAT was good and WT’s lead dwindled to just seven points, up 35-28 with 2:48 left in the third quarter. Closing in on the third quarter, WT had a fourth-down and one-to-go situation. The Buffs went for it, but were denied the one yard and forced to turn over the ball on downs. CWU took advantage of the turnover and proceeded to march down the field. Seven plays later, Mohler and Helwege hooked up again for another touchdown, this time from eight yards out. Davis’ extra point was good and the Wildcats tied the game 35-35 with 12:29 left to play in the game. Vaughan followed the CWU touchdown, completing four-straight passes and then rushing for eight yards to get the Buffs to the CWU 14-yard line. A couple of plays later, Robinson took it to the house for his second touchdown of the night to put the Buffs back on top, 41-35. Castillo’s kick was good and WT led 42-35 with 10:36 left to play in the game. The Buffs put the nail in the coffin on its next possession as Vaughan found Golden for a 70-yard touchdown. The drive took just three plays and 1:19 off the clock, but 97 yards later the Buffs pushed its lead to 48-35 with 8:09 left to play. Castillo’s PAT was good and WT led by 14 points again, 49-35.

#20 West Texas A&m aT #5 midwestern state
No. 5 mustangs hold off No. 20 buffs, 35-21 WICHITA FALLS, Texas – The No. 20-ranked West Texas A&M Buffaloes came from behind two times to pull within seven points of the No. 5-ranked Midwestern State Mustangs, but WTAMU came up short in the end and fell to home team 35-21 at Wichita Falls Memorial Stadium. The Mustangs opened the game, scoring on its first possession to take a quick 7-0 lead. MSU quarterback Brandon Kelsey called his own number from the WT 11-yard line and took it in for the score, capping off an eight-play, 80 yard drive that took 3:32 off of the clock. The Buffs were forced to punt following a three-and-out, but MSU could not do anything on offense in its next possession either and was forced to punt as well. With a strong wind in the punter’s face, WT’s Brittan Golden was forced to wave for a fair catch, but the ball bounced off of the turf and hit the back of Zane Farris and the Mustangs took over following the fumble. The WT defense returned the favor though, stripping the ball from MSU’s Jimmy Pipkin on the ensuing play and giving the ball back to WT’s offense. Seven plays later Dustin Vaughan found Torrence Allen in the back of the end zone to give WT its first touchdown of the game. Sergio Castillo, Jr., was successful in his point-after-attempt and the Buffs tied the game 7-7 with 6:43 left to play in the first quarter. Both teams were forced to punt on the next two possessions and MSU eventually broke the tie with a three-yard touchdown run from Lester Bush with 11:56 left to play in the second quarter, capping off a 13-play, 80-yard drive that accounted for 5:32 off of the clock. The two teams held strong defensively over the remainder of the second quarter and both MSU and WT were forced to punt twice, but with 2:09 left in the half, MSU’s Gunter Elenburg kicked his punt high into the wind. Golden couldn’t come up with the catch on the return, fumbling the ball and turning it over to MSU at the WT 17-yard line. Kelsey’s first pass of the possession was complete to David Little for 15 yards and setting up the Mustangs with a first-and-goal at the three yard line. Kelsey then rushed the ball to the one yard line and two plays later Keidrick Jackson punched it in for the score. Grad Galadino’s PAT was good and MSU took a 21-7 lead into the locker room at halftime. MSU won the initial coin toss and elected to defer to the second half, but in an odd scenario the Buffs kicked off to start the game and then again to begin the second half. The second half kick to the Mustangs did not amount to anything though as the WT defense forced MSU to a three-and-out. WT was forced to punt as well on the ensuing possession, but the Buffs managed to find the end zone following another MSU punt. Taking over at the MSU 22-yard line, Vaughan found Slaughter for 21 yards to give the Buffs a first-and-goal and Tommy Hampton finished off the drive with a one-yard run. Castillo’s kick was good and the

Buffs pulled to within a touchdown, down 21-14 with 10:33 left to play in the third. The Mustangs countered though on its next possession as Kelsey took it all the way into the end zone from 44 yards out. Saladino’s PAT was good and MSU went back on top by 14 points with 6:06 remaining in the third quarter. A couple of possessions later the Buffs took over with 3:55 left to play in the third quarter from the MSU 35 yard line. Vaughan hit Golden for 10 yards and then rushed for four yards setting up a second down and six. Vaughan’s next pass was incomplete, but he followed it up with a 20-yard dump pass to Khiry Robinson that gave the Buffs a first down at the MSU one yard line. Robinson finished off the drive as he punched it in from one-yard out and Castillo’s kick pulled WT back to within seven points, down 28-21 with 2:40 left to play. Jackson rushed the ball for 24 yards on the first play from scrimmage on MSU’s next possession and the Mustangs looked to be driving. MSU managed to get the ball down to the WT 12 yard line but were unable to get into the end zone. Saladino came in for the 29-yard field goal, but his attempt went wide-right. It was the first time all season that MSU was unable to come away with points while inside the red zone, snapping a streak of 46 consecutive trips with points. The Mustangs got the ball back after a WT three-and-out and again got the ball back into the red zone, but this time MSU came away empty again as Bush fumbled the ball on the six yard line and was WT took over as the ball was recovered by Jordan Smith on the defense. The Buffs took over with 5:45 left in the game, down by seven points, and managed to get the ball to its own 30 yard line, but three penalties later from the offense forced WT into a third down and 20 yards to go situation. Vaughan’s pass to Trevor Hammargren was broken up by Bernard Griffin and the Buffs had to punt the ball. MSU got the ball back with 3:12 left and put the final touches on the game when Kelsey scored his third rushing touchdown of the game. His 26-yard scamper followed by Saladino’s PAT put the Mustangs on top 35-21 and that would prove to be the final score. Vaughan finished the game completing 20 of his 45 passes for 252 yards and a touchdown. Robinson tallied 20 yards on the ground with a score and had six receptions for 58 yards. Golden and Slaughter led the team with four catches each for 72 yards apiece. Taylor McCuller led the Buffs on defense with 18 tackles on the day. He had 10 total tackles at the break and he led the squad with seven solo tackles as well.

It was WT’s first shutout since Nov. 8, 2009, when the Buffs shutout Tarleton 51-0. Five of WT’s seven touchdowns came in three plays or less and took less than 52 seconds off the clock. The other two scores were capped off by a six and seven-play drive and both took less than three minutes off the clock. It was Senior Day at Kimbrough Memorial Stadium and the majority of the WT seniors led the way in WT’s decisive victory. Senior wide receiver Brittan Golden tallied 138 yards receiving on just four catches and had three touchdowns on the day, while a pair of seniors led the way for the Buffs on defense. Dishon Robertson led the defensive line unit with six tackles and Caleb Randolph led the secondary with a pair of interceptions that led to scores. Both teams were forced to punt following a couple of three-and-outs, then the Buffs turned the ball back over on downs after A&M-C stopped the run on a WT fourth-and-one. The Lions took over at the WT 37-yard line and were looking to drive, getting down to the nine-yard line, but A&M-C quarterback J.J. Harp had his pas deflected off his own receiver right into the hands of Caleb Randolph. The Buffs were called for a delay of game at the beginning of the drive, and Dustin Vaughan followed with a pass to Nathan Slaughter for eight yards. On the next play, Vaughan found Lance Ratliff for an 82-yard touchdown to give the Buffs an early 6-0 lead. Sergio Castillo, Jr., came in for the extra point and WT led 7-0 with 9:13 left to play in the first quarter. It was the fourth time this season that Vaughan and Ratliff hooked up for the game’s first score. The Buff defense forced A&M-C to punt on the ensuing possession and two plays later, WT’s Khiry Robinson scored his 10th rushing touchdown to cap-off a two-play, 61-yard drive with 4:45 left in the first quarter. Vaughan hit Brittan Golden on the first play for a 60 yards and Robinson punched it in for the score from one yard out. Castillo’s PAT was good and WT led 14-0. WT scored its second touchdown off of a Randolph interception with 1:48 left in the first quarter, when Vaughan found Ratliff for another pass-and-catch for a score. Following the pick, WT went seven plays for 41 yards, which ended with Ratliff’s 19-yard touchdown score. Castillo’s extra point was good and WT led 21-0.

The Buffs went up 28-0 following another two-play drive, with Golden finding the end zone from 11 yards out on a pass from back-up quarterback Luke Halpin. Halpin found Ratliff for 44 yards before Golden found pay dirt and WT’s lead grew to four touchdowns with 10:01 left in the second quarter. On WT’s next possession, Halpin found Golden again for a 43-yard touchdown, capping off just a threeplay drive that took 52 seconds off the clock. Castillo’s PAT was good and WT led 35-0 will 6:17 left to play in the half. The Buffs went into the locker room up 35 points and had put up 320 yards of offense, while not allowing A&M-C on the scoreboard and limiting them to just 57 total yards. For the second time this season, Ratliff and Golden headed into the intermission with at least 100 yards receiving. Ratliff had 145 yards on three catches and a pair of touchdowns, while Golden tallied 114 yards on three catches and a pair of touchdowns as well. On the Lions’ first play from scrimmage to start the second half, Ryan Lusby’s pass was intercepted by WT’s Curtis Slater and taken back 44 yards for a score, but a new NCAA rule says that a player cannot celebrate in any way before getting into the end zone, and it appeared that Slater lifted the ball into the air before crossing the goal line. Slater was called down on the three-yard line and the ball was moved back 15 yards following the unsportsman-like conduct penalty Two plays later though, Halpin found Golden for the third time for a 24-yard strike to put the Buffs up 41-0. Castillo came on for the PAT and WT led 42-0 with 14:05 left in the third quarter. Not a lot of offense came after that as the next touchdown wasn’t scored until 3:56 left in the ballgame. Fourth string quarterback David Lehocky found Sidney Parker for a 32-yard touchdown. It was both the first-career TD pass for Lehocky and TD catch for Parker. Castillo then came in for the extra point and WT’s lead grew to 49-0.

Lower kanza bowl - west texas a&m vs. No. 23 central missouri
BUFFS top 23rd-ranked central missouri in kanza bowl, 26-7 TOPEKA, Kansas – The West Texas A&M Buffaloes ended the 2011 season on a high note on Sunday afternoon as they defeated the #23 ranked Mules of Central Missouri, 26-7, in the 3rd annual Lower Inc. Kanza Bowl at the Hummer Sports Park in Topeka, Kansas. The win lifts the Buffs to 8-3 this season while UCM falls to 8-4 and it gives WT their second Kanza Bowl trophy in three years. “Hats off to Central Missouri on a great season, I thought both teams came into the game with gameplans to stop each other and ours just happened to work a little better” said WT head coach Don Carthel “Our defense played outstanding this afternoon, they made big plays when we needed them. Offensively, Khiry (Robinson) ran the ball fantastic and Dustin (Vaughan) bounced back from some early interceptions to play well.” The Buffs showed a little rust on the first series of the game after a two week layoff as Dustin Vaughan was intercepted by Marlon Douglas on the fourth play of the game to give the Mules their first offensive possession. UCM couldn’t respond to the WT turnover as they went 3-and-out to give the ball back to the Buffs. The Buffs got on the board first with a four yard touchdown run by Khiry Robinson with 9:27 left in the first quarter to cap off an eight play, 71 yard drive that took 3:26. The Mules answered back with an eight play drive of their own that went 68 yards in 3:40 highlighted by a LaVance Taylor one yard touchdown run to tie the score at 7-7. The second WT drive of the game saw Vaughan break the 3,000 yard barrier for the first time in his career, the sophomore signal caller completed a 39 yard pass to Nathan Slaughter on 3rd and four to break the mark. The Buffs turned the ball over again on the next drive when Vaughan was intercepted by Sosaia Taufa, the Mules went on to convert a 4th and one with a Tommy Corwin pass to Jamar Howard for 17 yards. Mario Goins ended the UCM drive with an interception in the end zone on first and goal that stopped the Mule momentum and gave the Buffs the ball. The first quarter ended with WT driving down the field with the score tied at 7-7. Following the break, both teams stalled offensively and punted before the Buffs took a chance on a fake field goal on 4th and goal when a Jonathan Hatton rush was stopped by the Mules. Goins made another great play defensively on the drive when he intercepted his second Corwin pass of the day on his back to give possession and the momentum back to the Buffs. WT wasted no time to strike, as Vaughan hooked up with Brittan Golden for a 44 yard touchdown pass to put the Buffs up 13-7 following a missed extra point. The catch was historic for Golden who went over 1,000 yards receiving on the season. The Buffs picked off their third pass of the day and the second one in the end

zone on a Corwin pass on 2nd and goal to give WT the ball once again with 1:41 left in the first half. WT responded with a Robinson 65 yard scamper down the sideline for a first down on the UCM 34 yard line, the Buffs took the 20-7 lead with just 32 second remaining in the half on a Tommy Hampton eight yard touchdown run to cap off an eight play, 99 yard drive that took 1:08.

2012 West Texas A&M Buf falo Football Record Book
lone star conference Conference membership remained within the Texas borders until 1984 when Eastern New Mexico was admitted. Since then, the LSC has grown to include members from Arkansas and Oklahoma. Cameron (1988, 1996) was added near the outset of an expansion phase, while Texas Woman’s (1989) and previous members West Texas A&M (1986, 1993) and Tarleton State (1968, 1994) joined the league soon after. Midwestern State was admitted early in 1995, while the University of the Incarnate Word became the newest member in 2010. Past members of the LSC include Trinity, Houston, Lamar, Howard Payne, Sul Ross State, McMurry, Harding, Ouachita Baptist, Central Oklahoma, East Central (Okla.), Northeastern State (Okla.), Southeastern Oklahoma and Southwestern Oklahoma. With a more streamlined membership in place, the LSC will do away with divisional formats during the 2011-12 athletic seasons. Dating back to the 1997-98 academic year, the league was formed into two divisions - North and South - in football, volleyball, basketball, baseball and softball. Volleyball and baseball returned to playing without divisions in 2007-08, with football, basketball and softball set to go back to a one-conference model this year. While the LSC has maintained a long-standing tradition of competitive athletic programs for its members, many teams and individuals have gone on to distinguish themselves on the national stage. The LSC conducts conference championships in 16 sports (eight men and eight women). Men’s championships include football, soccer, cross country, basketball, baseball, track and field, tennis and golf. Women’s titles are determined in volleyball, soccer, cross country, basketball, softball, track and field, tennis and golf. The conference office is located in Richardson, Texas, a northern suburb of Dallas. Stan Wagnon serves as Commissioner, with assistance from Jay Poerner (Compliance), Melanie Robotham (Media Relations) and Travis Whipple (Marketing and Broadcasting).

Long known as a leader in intercollegiate athletics, the Lone Star Conference (LSC) is an innovative athletics conference which aims to provide a superior competitive experience for member institutions and to allow for comprehensive development of student-athletes through academic services and life skills programming. The LSC continues to build upon its proud history while intending to be recognized as the premier NCAA Division II conference in the nation. The league’s mission is to foster student participation and success among member institutions in Division II intercollegiate athletics as an integral part of each institution’s total educational program. The LSC strives for academic excellence, stresses involvement within the community, and prides itself in upholding traditions while continually seeking new opportunities to provide student-athletes with a unique and superior experience. The LSC - founded on April 25, 1931 - has developed from a five-team conference of Texasbased schools to an 11-member league that spans three states (Texas, Oklahoma and New Mexico). The conference membership recently changed with the departure of five Oklahoma schools following the 2010-11 academic year. The league continues to assist its member institutions in the maintenance of intercollegiate athletic programs that are compatible with the highest standards of education and competitive sports. Throughout the league’s 80-year history, various institutions have competed under the LSC banner. Today, only Texas A&M University-Commerce (then East Texas State) remains from the original group that was formed in 1931 when North Texas State, Southwest Texas State, Sam Houston State and Stephen F. Austin withdrew from the old Texas Intercollegiate Athletic Association. The membership alignment has changed over the years, with current members having been added in each of the past six decades. Texas A&M-Kingsville (formerly Texas A&I) joined in 1954, followed by Angelo State in 1968 and Abilene Christian in 1973.
