2010 Tiffin University Football Media Guide by Tiffin University Athletics

Welcome... Welcome to this athletic season at Tiffin University. I invite you to watch and cheer for all of our women’s and men’s teams. Intercollegiate athletics play an important role at Tiffin University. The students who participate develop life-long friendships and learn leadership and teamwork skills, how to set goals and work hard to achieve those goals, how to deal with adversity, the importance of persistence, sportsmanship, and physical fitness, and other skills and abilities that contribute to satisfying and productive lives and careers. Our athletic program also provides visibility and name recognition for TU, helps develop a sense of excitement, morale and school spirit on campus, and provides opportunities for students, employees, alumni, and supporters to unite behind a common goal. We are especially proud of the high standards of conduct displayed by our coaches and players on and off the field. Paul Marion, Ph. D. President At Tiffin University, our students endeavour to excel in both the classroom and the athletic arena. Our athletic programs have enjoyed tremendous success in recent years with conference championships, teams being nationally ranked and challenging at national tournaments. There have been numerous individual accolades including All-Americans, and it is no small accomplishment that in the past few years we have set new standards of excellence with our individual and team academic achievements. We expect our student-athletes to be just as successful in the classroom. A recent self study conducted by the university indicated that, of all the athletes who completed their eligibility at Tiffin University in the last five years, 95% of those athletes graduated. While many colleges would be ecstatic with these results, we will never be content until it is 100%. We are proud of our rich history and look forward to setting new milestones as we enter the NCAA Division II playing field and the highly competitive Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference. We are proud of our athletes and what they have accomplished. They have been the force behind the winning tradition that has been established, and I am confident the future will also be highly successful for Tiffin University athletics. - Lonny Allen Athletic Director

2008 Tiffin University Season Preview The Tiffin University Football team enters the 2010 season looking to continue the development of the squad in the always competitive Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference. The Dragons enter their third year in the conference and plan on showing significant improvement after a strong recruiting year and with key returners taking the field. The youthful Dragons developed over the course of the 2009 season, dropping a couple games late in the season by narrow scores. TU fell to Indianapolis 21-17 and Michigan Tech 21-14 over the last three weeks of the season, exhibiting improvement in many areas and giving the Dragons some reason for excitement heading into the 2010 season. The Dragons will have a few key returners from last year hoping to add to the team’s win total in 2009. Wide receivers Trey Williams (All-GLIAC with 40 rec., 365 yards), David Singleton (23 rec., 232 yards), and Brendton Williams (22 rec., 196 yards) give the Dragons three experienced receivers. Exciting sophomore quarterback Nate Scully also returns after a year in which he passed for 1197 yards and 12 touchdowns on 116 of 221 passing attempts (52.5 comp. pct.). Tight end Josh Cohen (6 rec., 57 yards) also returns, as do offensive linemen Philip Matthews (6-3, 265) and Noah Tanner (6-3, 305). Junior college transfer Gage Gorman (6-3, 300) should also bring some talent to the line as the Dragons will try to showcase two exciting freshmen running backs - Cypress Bay High School’s David McKnight and Canton McKinley’s Bryce Wilder. Wilder rushed for 1820 yards his senior season with 16 touchdowns and 7.2 yards per rush as he earned USA Today’s Red Zone Player of the Year. McKnight also rushed for nearly 1000 yards competing in Florida during his high school career. The Dragons plan on putting a balanced passing and rushing attack on display during the 2010 season. On defense, the team returns a number of key players, mostly in the defensive secondary. DeJuan Graham (54 tackles, 6.5 for loss) and Courtney Embry (48 tackles, 6 deflections) lead the defensive backs along with Mike Virgin (22 tackles, interception) while Will Cook (18 tackles) returns on the defensive line. Junior college transfer Mike Debesay (6-0, 265) will be a major addition on the defensive line after starting two seasons at Phoenix College. Freshman Joseph Collard (6-2, 240, Berrien Springs High School) will also be a major contributor while Ronald Gilliam will also play at linebacker/defensive back. On special teams, All-GLIAC kicker/punter Boris Bede also returns. Bede averaged 38 yards per punt and connected on two of four field goal attempts. Trey Williams returns to handle kick returns after leading the team with 19.5 yards per return while David Singleton (13.3 per return) also returns to handle punt returns.

is a $12 million comprehensive campaign designed to create endowed student scholarships, construct the new recreation center, and make other campus improvements. These enhancements, coupled with recent investments in new student apartments, the Tif Tiffi fin University Nature Preserve, Paradiso Athletic Complex, and the Miami Street Improvement Project, will result in a total investment by Tif Tiffi fin University of more than $30 million in the Tif Tiffi fin community.

Campaign Objectives

Recreation Center $9,400,000 The Recreation Center will consist of two connected buildings: a field house and an indoor practice facility. The connector will include a lobby and locker room facilities. Other Campus Development $1,600,000 Over the past several decades, TU has created a campus that not only refl flects the University’s own growth and success, but also enhances the appearance and economic well being of the City of Tif Tiffi fin. To continue pursuing the campus master plan, TU seeks $1.6 million for land acquisition, landscaping, parking and others amenities. Endowed Student Scholarships $1,000,000 Without financial aid, many Tif Tiffi fin University students could not afford higher education. Since over 80 percent of TU students receive some level of aid, TU leaders seek $1 million to bolster the endowment resources of the University to create additional student scholarships.

2009 in Review Dragons drop opener to Ferris State

A disastrous final 4:00 of the first half spelled doom for Tiffin University’s football team, as they allowed 20 unanswered points over that span and eventually fell to Ferris State in their season opener 34-14. The Bulldogs and the Dragons played each other tough throughout the first quarter, with FSU finally breaking the ice late in the opening quarter with a touchdown. The Dragons answered in short order, however, taking advantage of a botched punt attempt as Jackson Davis recovered the fumble in the end zone at the 9:12 mark of the second quarter to tie the score 7-7. Ferris State kicked a field goal at the 4:24 mark to make the score 10-7, but the wheels came off for the Dragons on its next possession. After punting away after a three-and-out, the Bulldogs marched 52 yards in four plays to score and make the score 17-7. The Dragons responded by moving the ball down the field, attempting to narrow the game in the closing minute of play before halftime. But FSU’s Kyle Fitzpatrick picked off a Steve Feeman pass and returned it 65 yards for another touchdown. After TU had a poor 13 yard punt after another three-and-out, the Bulldogs booted another field goal with two seconds remaining to give them a 27-7 halftime edge. The Dragons were unable to get on the board in the third quarter, while FSU tacked on another touchdown. TU finished the scoring in the fourth quarter when Alvin McKnight rushed 32 yards at the 14:54 mark to make the score 34-14. TU was outgained 322-231 in total yardage, with both teams emphasizing their ground games. The Bulldogs outrushed TU 258-153, as TU mustered just 79 yards through the air on 9 of 24 passing with 2 interceptions. TU also helped the Bulldogs with 95 yards in penalties. The Bulldogs also ran 82 plays to TU’s 60 and had nearly 10 more minutes in time of possession. One bright spot for the Dragons was the performance of Washington State transfer Chris Ivory, who in limited action rushed for 90 yards on 13 carries and hauled in 3 passes for 43 more yards. McKnight also gained 49 yards on 8 rushes. Defensively Arthur Allen had 11 tackles, David Rumley (8 tackles) and Courtney Embry (7 tackles) joined Rahsan Wilson (8 tackles, sack) to also lead the defense. Davis also had 8 tackles with an interception and fumble recovery for a score.

Dragons fall to Findlay It’s a short drive from Findlay to Tiffin. Ironically, it was long drive that the Oilers used that broke the Dragons’ back in Tiffin’s 35-13 home opener loss against the University of Findlay. The Dragons went into the half trailing 13-6 but looked to be in good shape when Boris Bede’s kick was fielded in the end zone and the Findlay kick returner fell down on the 1 yard line. However, the Oilers drove the ball 99 yards on the ground in 7 plays to take a 20-6 lead. “We can’t give up big plays,” said Dragons coach Dave Walkosky. “They had two plays over 20 yards (on the drive), and our D’s not designed to give up big plays.” The Dragons received the game’s opening kickoff, and after a first down, Dragons quarterback David Singleton’s pass was picked off. From there the two teams engaged in a pretty good defensive battle for the rest of the first quarter. The only score allowed in the 1st was an Oilers 40 yard field goal with 2:59 remaining.

Findlay then made it a 10-0 game with 12:28 remaining in the second quarter after a four play drive that included a trick play for 57 yards. The Dragons answered, however, with a 12 play drive that ended with Singleton hooking up with Greg Raspberry on a 17 yard pass in the end zone with 8:30 remaining in the 1st half. The Dragons trailed 10-6 after Bede’s extra point attempt was blocked. The Oilers added to their lead on a field goal with 1:26 on the clock. After the 99 yard drive to start the half, the Oilers picked off another Singleton pass and two plays later scored another touchdown when Mike Beams completed a 57 yard pass to Mike Chambers. The Oilers would add another touchdown and a two point conversion when a bad snap was run in. In all, the Oilers scored 22 unanswered points in the third quarter. The Dragons kept battling, however, and scored again in the 4th quarter when Nate Scully, the third quarterback used by the Dragons, hooked up with Chris Bonner to make it 35-13. Neither team put another score on the board. Even with the loss, Coach Walkosky did see some positives. “We played hard and didn’t quit. We didn’t have that many penalties either.” Trey Williams was the offensive leader for Tiffin, catching 13 passes for 124 yards while Greg Raspberry had 4 catches for 52 yards. Chris Ivory was the leading rusher with 52 yards on 10 carries. Singleton finished 21 for 30 for 193 yards and 2 interceptions. Jackson Davis once again led the TU defense with 10.5 tackles (8 solo) while Moses Kato had 7 tackles. Overall the Oilers dominated offensively, outgaining TU 451-330. TU was held to just 58 total rushing yards. Findlay also had the ball for 7 more minutes despite running 11 fewer plays that TU.

No. 15 Ashland defeats Tiffin Ashland came into Tiffin University ranked 15th in the nation while the Dragons were looking for their first victory. A big start and some Dragons’ missed opportunities helped the Eagles fly out of Frost-Kalnow Stadium with a 41-14 victory. Ashland came into Tiffin University ranked 15th in the nation while the Dragons were looking for their first victory. A big start and some Dragons’ missed opportunities helped the Eagles fly out of FrostKalnow Stadium with a 41-14 victory. The Eagles scored on the first three possessions of the game. After receiving the opening kickoff, Ashland capped off a seven play 67 yard drive with a touchdown when Billy Cundiff threw a nine yard pass to Frank Cardone. The Dragons’ first possession was short-lived. Alvin McKnight returned the kickoff for 32 yards to the TU 44 yard line, but on the first play, Dragons’ quarterback Nate Scully’s pass was picked off by Quinton Scott. The Eagles took advantage of the short field and scored on a Justin Ferguson rush from three yards out. TU’s next possession started on their 40 after Ashland’s kick sailed out of bounds. Scully hit Greg Raspberry for an eight yard gain to start the drive. One play later, Scully used a quarterback sneak to pick up 24 yards. The Dragons, however, couldn’t convert on fourth and two as McKnight was tackled at the line of scrimmage. Ashland would take a 21-0 lead three plays later when Cundiff hooked up with the speedy Carlin Isles for a 75 yard touchdown pass. The Dragons responded with a seven play 59 yard drive that would give them their first points of the day when Brett Koepp scored from three yards out to make it 21-7. The Dragons had moved to the three yard line after Scully hit Chris Ivory for a 28 yard gain.

After The Eagles turned the ball over on downs, the Dragons quickly moved down to the red zone after Ivory rushed for a 42 yard gain, and Scully completed a 12 and pass to Raspberry. The Dragons rushed three times for two yards to set up a fourth and goal from the Eagles’ two. Dragons’ Head Coach Dave Walkosky decided to keep his offense on the field, and his gamble looked like it was going to pay off when Scully threw to David Singleton in the end zone, but Singleton could not haul in the ball and the Dragons turned the ball over on downs. Ashland took over with the ball on their own two and six plays later scored on a Cundiff pass to Chris Livingston to make it 28-7. The Dragons tried to chip away at the lead before halftime when Scully hooked up with Trey Williams for 48 yards. The Dragons had to use their final timeout when Williams was ruled in bounds after the catch. With the ball at the Ashland 11, Scully was sacked and time ran out in the first half. The Dragons came out in the second half breathing fire as Scully again hit Raspberry for a 65 yard touchdown pass on the first play of the half to close the lead to 28-14. That’s the last scoring the Dragons would do, however, and saw Ashland tack on 13 more points to leave with a 41-14 victory. Walkosky knew the importance of the quick start that Ashland got off to. “Any time you play a top 20 team, you can’t get behind that fast,” he said. “I’m happy for our team after last week’s loss and getting home at 5:30 in the morning (from Northen Michigan), but we battled and we won a lot of battles out there, but not enough against a team like that.” TU gained 96 yards on the ground, led by Ivory’s 53. He left the game with an injured knee but Walkosky didn’t know his status. The Dragons also picked up 269 yards in the air with Scully picking up 262 of them. Walkosky praised his quarterback, “I think everyone can see we have a great, great quarterback in freshman Nate Scully.” Greg Raspberry had 106 yards on 7 catches while Trey Williams had 87 yards on 6 catches along with 41 more yards in kick returns. Alvin McKnight also had 124 all purpose yards.

Dragons face Wayne State With 2:26 remaining in the 2nd quarter and Tiffin University trailing 21-8, the Dragons sent out the field goal unit to try and cut Wayne State University’s lead to 10. Boris Bede’s 34 yard attempt, however, was blocked by the Warrior’s Kenny Watson and scooped up by Stan Thornton who took it to the end zone untouched to give the Warriors a comfortable 20 point lead heading to halftime. The Dragons could not get the momentum back in their favor, and the Warriors would tack on 10 more points in the 2nd half and leave Frost-Kalnow Stadium with a 38-8 victory. The Warriors received the ball to start the game and used a nine-play, 76 yard drive that ended with a Mickey Morasso 19 yard pass to Troy Burrell in the end zone for a touchdown and a 7-0 lead. The Dragons’ defense got a steady diet of Joique Bell rushes on the drive, a trend that would continue the entire day as the talented running back rushed for 182 yards and two touchdowns. The Dragons looked to answer the Warriors first score, picking up two first downs and 41 yards on their first drive. But the drive would end when Nate Scully’s pass sailed over his intended receiver’s head and into the arms of the Warriors’ Thornton to give Wayne State the ball at TU’s 36. The Warriors then handed the ball off to Bell six straight times to give them a 14-0 lead. The Dragons would cut the lead down to 14-8 with 13:42 remaining in the second quarter. After both teams were forced to punt, the Dragons started a drive on the Wayne State 45 yard line. Scully hit Trey Williams for a six yard gain, and then Alvin McKnight picked up 7 yards on the ground. After an incomplete pass, McKnight rushed for eight yards. The Dragons then handed the ball off to Brett Koepp for a 24 yard touchdown run. The snap of the extra point attempt was high, but the holder, David Singleton, was able to snatch it and turn the corner on the Warriors’ defense and cut Wayne State’s lead to 14-8. However, the Warriors would answer the Dragons’ drive with a 12 play, 60 yard drive that saw Bell touch the ball 11 times and pick up all 60 yards for a touchdown. The Dragons looked to again answer the Warriors drive, but that’s when the Warriors would get their hand on Bede’s kick. The only points in the second half were scored by the Warriors. A field goal and a Mohner pass to Troy Burrell sealed the Wayne State victory. “When you’re a young team, you’re going to have turnovers,” Dragons Coach Dave Walkosky said. “You’ve got to protect the football. We have to execute; we knew coming in we were going to play a great football team. We moved the ball up and down the field, but you have to finish with points.” Scully finished with 136 passing yards and 23 rushing yards. McKnight led the Dragons’ ground game with 48 yards. Greg Raspberry had 78 yards receiving to lead the team. DeJuan Graham made 6 tackles for the Dragons defense while Arthur Allen had 4.

TU suffers loss to Northern Michigan A rough day at the office for the Tiffin University football program, as they traveled north to Marquette, Michigan to take on Northern Michigan. The Dragons endured the toughest loss in their program’s history, falling 62-0 in a lop-sided affair. The 62 points is the most ever allowed by TU, breaking the previous record of 54 points allowed. The 62 point margin was also the largest score differential against the Dragons, shattering the previous record of 42 points. The Dragons never got on track, allowing 27 points in the first quarter and 48 points in the first half. NMU ran 79 plays to TU’s 41, outgaining the Dragons 532-84 in total yards. The Wildcats (1-1) especially dominated on the ground, rushing for 395 yards to TU’s 55. Tiffin turned the ball over 4 times and gained only 2 first downs in the game, while allowing 30 to the Wildcats. TU went 0-for-10 on third down conversions and endured a 41:56 to 18:04 disadvantage in time of possession. David Pickeral led the defense with 11 tackles while Arthur Allen had 10. David Rumley also had 7 tackles.

Dragons fall to G r a n d Va l l e y S t a t e Tiffin University traveled north to take on the nation’s top-ranked team, Grand Valley State, and came away with a 47-21 defeat. The Dragons (0-6) were outgained overall 597-181 in total offense, but did come away from the game with some positives. The Dragons’ 21 points were the second most allowed by Grand Valley this season thus far, and were 21 more points than the Dragons scored last season when they lost 49-0 at home to the Lakers. Freshman quarterback Nate Scully tossed 3 touchdowns in the game, hitting Greg Raspberry at the 6:29 mark of the 2nd quarter to get TU on the board. He then found Brenton Williams at 9:39 of the 3rd quarter and David Singleton at 5:02 of the same period on a pair of 6 yard TD tosses. Overall Scully completed 15 of 25 passes with just one interception, the only turnover of the game for TU. Alvin McKnight rushed for 47 yards on 8 carries, while Raspberry finished with 51 yards on 6 catches. Jackson Davis led the defense with 7 tackles (2 for loss), while David Pickeral, Moses Kato, William Cook, and Nick McGowan all had 6 tackles each. The Lakers especially dominated on the ground, rushing for 347 yards to TU’s 44. They had 26 first downs to TU’s 12. The Lakers held a 28-0 advantage after one quarter and a 41-7 lead at halftime.

No. 24 Saginaw Valley flies past TU For the third week in a row Tiffin University has played a team ranked in the top 25 of the Division 2 football poll. The Dragons, still looking for their first win, put up a good fight on Homecoming Saturday, but couldn’t overcome the 6 turnovers as the visiting #24 Saginaw Valley State left Frost-Kalnow Stadium with a 40-21 victory. The Dragons and the Cardinals traded punts after their first possessions of the game. TU started their second possession at their own 27 yard line and quickly got the ball to midfield after a SVSU penalty. Freshman quarterback Nate Scully was picked off on the next play to give the Cardinals the ball back. However, the Dragons defense forced a three and out to get the offense back on the field. On the next series, the Dragons picked up two first downs before Scully was hit in the backfield and fumbled the ball in the process. SVSU picked up the fumble to give the Cardinals the ball at the TU 40 yard line. Saginaw Valley would use 5 plays to pick up the 40 yards they needed capped by a Charles Dowdell 14 yard pass to Nick Gallina in the end zone for a 7-0 lead with 14:54 left to play in the 2nd quarter. The Dragons next drive again ended in an interception, but one play later TU’s Mike Virgin picked off Dowdell’s pass to get the ball back for the Dragons. TU put together what looked to be another promising drive, picking up 37 yards in 10 plays, before Scully threw another interception to give the Cardinals the ball back at their 14 yard line. Saginaw Valley again turned the turnover into a touchdown, this time using an eight play 86 yard drive that ended in a Brandon Hayes 12 yard rush for a touchdown. The Dragons’ Chris Evans blocked the Cardinals’ extra point attempt to keep the lead at 13 for SVSU. TU’s turnover nightmare in the first half continued on the first play of the next drive, as Scully’s pass was intercepted by Ja’Vae Ingraham. The Cardinals were again able to turn the Dragons turnover into a touchdown when Xavier Walker ran into the end zone from one yard out on the fourth play of the drive to give Saginaw Valley a 20-0 lead with 2:28 remaining in the second half. Scully was able to shake off the interceptions to lead the Dragons down the field for a touchdown to cut down the deficit before the half. The drive ended when the Dragons elected to go for a touchdown on fourth and goal from the two yard line and Scully threw a two yard pass to Trey Williams for a touchdown with no time remaining in the first half. Scully completed four passes on the drive. Williams caught two and David Singleton caught two. The Dragons also used two rushes by Alvin McKight and one by Brett Koepp to help gain yards on the drive. The Dragons got a turnover to start the second half as Arthur Allen picked off Dowdell to set up good field position at SVSU’s 13 yard line. Three plays later Scully hit Singleton in the end zone and Boris Bede’s PAT cut the Cardinals’ lead to 20-14. Saginaw Valley would score the next two touchdowns of the game, pushing the lead to 3314. The Dragons did score again with 2:48 remaining in the game when Scully found Greg Raspberry in the end zone from 11 yards out to make it 33-21. The Cardinals would score the last touchdown of the game and leave Tiffin with a 40-21 victory. Despite the outcome, Dragons Head Coach Dave Walkosky still saw some positives. “I thought we were in it the whole game. We put a freshman in some tough situations having to throw the ball a lot,” he said. “I thought there were a lot of brilliant flashes, but that doesn’t win football games. That’s part of being a young team. They (SVSU) are a strong football team and they’re going to win a lot of games.” Scully had 207 yards passing to lead the Dragons offense. Singleton caught 10 passes for 98 yards while Williams had eight catches for 46 yards. Moses Kato led the Dragons defense, making 6 tackles while Rahsan Wilson had 5.5 tackles.

Dragons fall to Northwood The Dragons once again kept things close on the road at Northwood, but could not keep up the pace in the second half as Northwood streaked past TU 42-7. The Dragons fall to 0-8 while Northwood improves to 4-3. After a scoreless ﬁrst quarter, the Dragons gave up a pair of scores including one just before halftime to give Northwood a 14-0 halftime edge. But four turnovers, including 3 interceptions and a fumble from quarterback Nate Scully, were too much for the Dragons, who allowed 14 points in the third quarter and 21 unanswered points to start the second half in falling behind 35-0.

Northwood’s rushing attack was too much for the Dragons, who were outrushed 452-30 on the ground. Overall the Timberwolves outgained TU 491-144 in total offense. The Dragons were outpaced 21-9 in ﬁrst downs while TU struggled to move the ball all day, collecting just 2 of 11 third down conversions. The Dragons lone score came at 11:19 of the fourth quarter, when Greg Raspberry hauled in a 5 yard pass from Steve Feeman. Overall Nate Scully ﬁnished 6 of 17 with 3 interceptions for 60 yards while Feeman threw for 67 yards on 5 of 8 passing. David Singleton was the leading receiver for the second week in a row, hauling in 4 passes for 66 yards. Wyatt Thames, Mike Virgin, Dan Reedy, and Everett Johnson were the leading tacklers with 6 apiece. Arthur Allen also had a 38 yard interception return.

TU drops close game at Indianapolis Tiffin University lost their closest battle of the season 21-17 at Indianapolis, leading early in the game and not relinquishing the lead until late in the third quarter in a hard-fought contest. The Dragons jumped out to a 14-0 lead in the second quarter. Greg Raspberry hauled in a 34 yard pass from Nate Scully to get TU on the board at the 11:58 mark. The Dragons then jumped on the scoreboard quickly, scoring at the 9:17 mark on a 14 yard pass from Scully to David Singleton to take a 14-0 lead. The Greyhounds answered with two scores of their own in the final 6:28 of the first half, knotting the score at 14-14 at halftime. TU got back out in front right out of the lockerroom, as Boris Bede drilled a 42 yard field goal at 12:41 of the third quarter to put TU up 17-14. But the Greyhounds went ahead for good at the 4:11 mark of the third quarter on a 38-yard TD strike. The Dragons were unable to mount another drive throughout the final quarter as UI held on for the win. Overall the Greyhounds controlled the stats, outgaining TU 343163 in total offense and 23-10 in first downs. The Greyhounds turned the ball over four times, giving the Dragons numerous opportunities, but TU only capitalized a few times as they went just 1-for-10 on third down conversions. The Greyhounds also controlled the clock, holding a 37:30-21:37 advantage in time of possession. Nate Scully completed just 9 of 23 passes with 2 interceptions along with 2 touchdowns for 127 yards, but he also was sacked 6 times. Greg Raspberry was the top offensive threat, catching 3 passes for 73 yards. Boris Bede also did well, kicking a field goal, averaging 35.1 yards per punt including putting 3 inside the 20 yard line, and averaging 66.2 yards per kickoff. Defensively the Dragons played one of their top games, with David Rumley totaling 11 tackles with a sack. Arthur Allen had 10 tackles with a forced fumble, 1.5 tackles for loss, and a deflection, while Dan Reedy had 10 tackles with 2 fumbles forced. Moses Kato posted 9 tackles, 1.5 tackles for loss, a fumble recovery, and a sack, while Jackson Davis had 8 tackles and a deflection. Ty Richardson had an interception.

Dragons lose to Michigan Tech on Senior Day Tiffin University played a solid game on Senior Day against visiting Michigan Tech University, but fell just short in a 21-14 loss in a Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference game. The Dragons got a good start after forcing a three and out to start the game. Michigan Tech’s Marvin Atkins rushed three times, but the Dragons defense would hold him to eight yards and force a Huskies’ punt. The Dragons would be rewarded with good field position when the 11 yard punt sailed out of bounds at the TU 49 yard line. TU took advantage of the short field as quarterback Nate Scully rushed for four yards. On the next play Alvin McKnight rushed for three more. Facing a third and three, Scully threw a 37 yard pass to Greg Raspberry to set up a first and goal from the MTU seven yard line. On third and goal, Scully threw a touchdown to David Singleton from four yards out to put the Dragons ahead. Boris Bede’s PAT made it a 7-0 lead.

TU ends season against Hillsdale Tiffin University finished a difficult 2009 season at nationally-ranked Hillsdale, falling 59-24 in their season finale. The Dragons were down only 14-7 at the end of the first quarter but the Chargers turned it up a notch in the second quarter, scoring 35 unanswered points. The Dragons could not get moving offensively, especially on the ground where they were outgained 246-22 yards. Overall Hillsdale’s balanced attack racked up 585 yards of offense to TU’s 277. Nate Scully completed 10 of 22 passes for 145 yards and 2 interceptions but also was sacked 4 times. Steve Feeman finished his Dragons career at quarterback, connecting on 7 of 13 passes for 110 yards. Dave Singleton had 98 all purpose yards while Dave Pickeral led the defense with 9 tackles and Chris Evans added 8 tackles.

TU would get another short field after Chris Evans picked off a MTU pass to set up the Dragons’ offense at the MTU 47 yard line. The Dragons picked up one first down, but faced a third and three at the 30 yard line. Bede tried to add three more points on to the Dragons lead, but his 48 yard attempt was wide left. On the next possession, Evans again picked off Brent Heim’s pass to get the ball back for the Dragons. The Dragons offense couldn’t take advantage of the good field possession and would trade punts with MTU. The Dragons would punt again which set up the Huskies’ first scoring drive. MTU used 11 plays to pick up 64 yards with 54 seconds left in the first half. Tech scored on a rush from one yard out. The second half started just like the first half ended. The Dragons and Huskies traded punts, and after another Dragon punt, MTU would put together another scoring drive. This time it came on a Heim quarterback sneak from three yards out to cap a nine play 75 yard drive that lasted only 1:27. The Dragons and MTU again traded punts and yet again after another Dragon punt, the Huskies would score their final points. This time they needed only one pass play to pick up 68 yards and take a 21-7 lead. The Dragons looked to be out of the game after Scully threw an interception on a fourth and long on the next possession. However, the Dragons defense forced a punt, and turned the punt into seven points when it was blocked, and Rahsan Wilson scooped up the blocked kick and took it to the end zone to pull the Dragons to within seven with three minutes left. MTU picked up a first down on the next possession that would seal the game at 21-14. TU Coach Dave Walkosky gave credit to his senior class noting the two picks by Evans and the returned blocked punt from Wilson that resulted in the touchdown. “Our seniors are great leaders,” he said. He, like Kearly also gave the Dragons running defense credit. “I thought our defense got after them. Their running back is playing his first game back off an injury; he was all conference last year,” he added. Ty Richardson backed up Evans’ two interceptions with one of his own. David Pickeral made 12 tackles while DeJuan Graham and David Rumley each made two tackles for the Dragons’ defense. Scully had 30 passing yards to lead the offense while McKinght and Brett Koepp had 31 and 27 rushing yards respectively.
