TODAY’S GAME 3 - This is the third straight season Liberty is hosting a fellow FBS independent team for the Flames’ regular-season finale, following visits from New Mexico State in 2019 and UMass in 2020. The Flames are scheduled to close out their tenure as an FBS independent squad with a home matchup against New Mexico State (Nov. 26, 2022).

MALIK WILLIS, QB

STORYLINES

1) Coming off contests against nationally ranked opponents, Liberty (7-4) will close out its 2021 regular season by hosting fellow FBS independent Army (7-3) at Williams Stadium for the first time in program history.

2) Liberty, which has won its last three meetings against FBS independent teams, is seeking its first-ever victory over Army. The Black Knights posted a 38-14 home win over Liberty in the only previous head-to-head matchup on Sept.

8, 2018.

3) Despite having its program-record 15-game home winning streak snapped by Louisiana last week, Liberty is 20-3 at Williams Stadium as an FBS program, including 15-2 under Hugh Freeze.

4) Liberty QB Malik Willis has accounted for 33 TDs (23 passing/10 rushing). He, Matt Corral (Ole Miss), and Malik Cunningham (Louisville) are the only three FBS QBs ranked among the top 50 nationally for both passing TDs and rushing TDs this season.

“4 DOWNS” WITH THE BLACK KNIGHTS

1 - Army’s first appearance at Williams Stadium will mark the Black Knights’ first contest in the state of Virginia since losing at Virginia 21-20 on Oct. 17, 1970, a year before Liberty was founded. Liberty is coming off its first home loss since the 2019 season opener, while the Black Knights have not won a road game since their 2021 opener at Georgia State.

2 – The Flames have only lost twice in their last 15 Senior Day contests at Williams Stadium.

Liberty is averaging 48.3 ppg during its current four-game Senior Day winning streak.

4 - Army ranks No. 2 nationally with 309.4 rushing yards per game. The Black Knights will be the fourth team among the nation’s top seven rushing offenses Liberty has faced in 2021. The Flames previously met North Texas (No. 4), Ole Miss (No. 6), and Syracuse (No. 7).

SENIOR SALUTE

Liberty will honor 25 players with a Senior Day ceremony before Saturday’s game.

Seniors to be honored will be Benjamin Alexander, Damian Bounds, Frank Boyd, Jake Brickell, William Green, Rashaad Harding, Trevor Hobbs, Johnny Huntley, Storey Jackson, Elijah James, Andrew Johns, Duron Lowe, Joshua Mack, Bryce Mathews, Cade Robinson, Boyd Rogish, Ralfs Rusins, Thomas Sargeant, Tristan Schultz, Kevin Shaa, Tyron Staples, Cedric Stone, DJ Stubbs, Skyler Thomas, and Malik Willis.

MILESTONE WATCH

2: QB Malik Willis needs two TDs to break his own Liberty single-season record for most touchdowns responsible for. He was responsible for a Liberty single-season record of 34 TDs (20 passing/14 rushing) in 2020 and has 33 TDs (23 passing/10 rushing) so far in 2021.

2: QB Malik Willis needs two passing TDs to join Stephen Calvert as the only Liberty QBs ever to throw for 25 TDs in a single season.

Calvert posted a program-record 29 TD passes in 2017 and added 28 more TDs in 2019.

10/13: DL Elijah James is 10 tackles away from joining teammates Javon Scruggs, Ralfs Rusins, and TreShaun Clark as members of the 100-tackle club for their careers. Scruggs needs 13 stops to reach the 200 mark.

WILLIAMS STADIUM CLEAR BAG POLICY CLEAR BAG POLICY

In an effort to enhance fan safety and expedite entrance to Williams Stadium, Liberty University has implemented a security screening process. This includes a clear bag policy that limits the size and type of bag that can be brought into the stadium by fans. The implementation of this measure is intended to enhance public safety while minimizing time spent searching bags at gate security checkpoints, thus easing access into the stadium.

The policy is consistent with the NFL’s current model. Only clear tote bags that do not exceed 12” x 6” x 12” or one-gallon plastic freezer bags will be allowed in Williams Stadium. In addition, small handheld clutch purses no larger than 4.5” x 6.5” will be permitted. Spectators will also be able to carry other items into the stadium, such as binoculars, cameras, and smartphones.

Liberty’s clear bag policy has been in effect since 2016 and will be strictly enforced during the 2021 football season.

PLAYER FEATURE STORY ONE FOR THE HISTORY BOOKS

immediately because I’d never seen so many trucks on the road before in my life.

My dad and I always used to joke around that I’d probably be playing football if I ever lived in America. It was all just for laughs, man — until one day, well, it wasn’t.

But, that’s not the point of this story.

After my youth basketball career ended, my dad suggested I pick up another sport to stay in shape. It wasn’t long after that conversation that we found out there was actually a football team back home in Latvia.

When they gave me an offer, I didn’t know what to think. The unknown just made things a little hard to process, you know?

RALFS RUSINS

So, I joined the club and tried out — and that running joke with my dad started becoming less and less funny.

About four weeks in, one of the coaches there pulled me to the side and talked to me about college football in the U.S. He was a former DII coach himself.

He looked me straight in the eyes and said, “Listen man, you have to go try out in the States. I see the potential in you to take this thing beyond college.”

And out of nowhere, this whole thing wasn’t a joke anymore.

When weighing my options, we did a little research and found out that there had never been a Division I football player born and raised in Latvia.

And since I’ve always been the type of person who likes doing things that have never been done before, I was sold on the idea instantly.

I mean, who doesn’t want to make history?

Eventually, I arrived at a one-day camp for Liberty.

The rest, as they say, is history.

On the one hand, I was thrilled and honored because I was going to do something cool, right? Something that had never been done before. But on the other hand, there were all of these questions.

Why am I even doing this?

Does any of this even make sense?

When you really think about it, it was all a little crazy. I was flying across the world and leaving all of my family and friends behind back home in Latvia to chase this goal. It seemed like a completely ridiculous idea on the surface. But deep down, I knew I had to see it through.

THE DREAM THAT NEVER WAS I kept thinking to myself how much it meant to not only make history as the first Latvian Division I football player, but more than anything, I just wanted to make everyone back home proud.

It’s so cool going back and getting recognized by people and just receiving Continued on page 9

THE LAND OF TRUCKS My teammates helped me put together a recruiting video and we started looking for those one-day camps to get on the radar of college coaches.

So, I hopped on a plane and traveled from camp to camp.

The culture shock was immediate.

The first thing that popped in my head was, “Man, people must really love their trucks in this country.” I noticed it

PLAYER FEATURE STORY encouraging texts when I’m here in the States. For me personally, all of this is an achievement that’s in the Latvian history books. The Latvia media even ran a story on me after we won last year’s bowl game.

Funny enough, I can’t really say I’ve dreamed about all of this stuff because I never knew any of it was possible. If I never took my club coach’s advice, I’d still be back home joking with my dad.

I’ve matured in so many ways since making the decision to come here. I was just 19 years old when I first arrived. I didn’t know how the world worked and all of that stuff, but just being out here on my own really forced me to grow up.

It took me out of my comfort zone and made me a better man.

One great example of that was when I tore my ACL in 2017.

After my surgery, I just never really found my spark back on that field. I thought this was it. I was really close to quitting, to be honest.

I only had a semester left in my undergrad, and for whatever reason, it just seemed like the right thing to do.

But things changed when Coach Hugh Freeze and the rest of the coaching staff came here. You see, I thought I knew how to play football, but I really didn’t know how to play the right way.

One spring session with Coach Freeze’s staff changed everything.

I went from being unsure of my ability to compete at the highest level to making tackles and helping the team win games — like the one against Syracuse. After that game, in particular, I realized, “Yeah, I can’t do this. I can’t quit!”

in program history then — another accomplishment I’m beyond proud of.

But, as I sit here now and think about everything, it’s just crazy that it’s almost over.

If anything, I just hope the legacy I leave behind has an even bigger impact on the younger players.

It doesn’t matter where you come from or what cards you’re dealt, you know? You have the power to overcome anything and make your mark on this world.

I don’t know what the future holds for me, but I do know I plan on becoming an attorney at some point. It’s sort of a running tradition in my family. Both of my parents are lawyers, and my mom is a judge. My grandmother is also an attorney. So, you could say it runs in the blood.

However, if I have things my way, I don’t think I’m quite done with trying to add to the Latvian history books by taking this football thing to the next level. I mean, why wouldn’t I try?

The coach back home said I had the potential to play beyond college in America. That was the original idea behind me actually coming over here in the first place. The plan was always to play college football and see if I was good enough to go further.

Ralfs Rusins, the first Latvian NFL player — yes, I like the sound of that.

Provided by FanWord.com

I just felt like I finally belonged, you know?

NOT DONE YET I’m thankful that I made the decision to come here and even more thankful that I didn’t stop playing. When it’s all said and done, I just found out that I’ll also have played the most football games

PROVIDING RIGOROUS ACADEMICS WITH A BIBLICAL WORLDVIEW

EQUIPPING STUDENTS

Since 1971, Liberty University has become one of the world’s largest Christian universities and has produced 250,000 alumni impacting their fields around the globe. Today, Liberty remains committed to investing in the lives of students, helping them realize their full potential, and bringing glory to God. Liberty holds regional accreditation through the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC)* to award associate, bachelor’s, master’s, specialist, and doctoral degrees. In addition to regional accreditation, many programs at Liberty have earned further accreditation through industry-specific organizations.

These accrediting bodies maintain rigorous standards and only recognize educational programs that represent the highest levels of excellence in their specializations.

COMMITMENT TO CHRISTIAN VALUES

Liberty’s unique character derives from its roots in the fundamentals of the Christian faith, as well as an abiding respect for this nation’s founding principles of limited government, individual liberty, and free enterprise. Our faculty members integrate biblical truth into every discipline while fostering a learning environment in which students are encouraged to excel.

Liberty remains on the cutting edge of higher education, providing rigorous academics without compromising its commitment to Christian values.

In addition to outstanding residential programs, Liberty is a leader in online education. *Contact the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges at 1866 Southern Lane, Decatur, Ga. 30033-4097 or call (404) 679-4500 for questions about the accreditation of Liberty University. Normal inquiries about the institution, such as admission requirements, financial aid, educational programs, etc., should be addressed directly to Liberty University.

20

PROVIDING RIGOROUS ACADEMICS WITH A BIBLICAL WORLDVIEW BUILT ON A SOLID FOUNDATION

Since its inception, Liberty University’s mission has been to provide a world-class educational experience with a solid Christian foundation, equipping men and women with the values, knowledge, and skills essential for success in every aspect of their lives.

Students at Liberty are prepared for more than a career — they are prepared for life. As an accredited, evangelical liberal arts institution with 15 colleges and schools and more than 700 programs of study from the certificate to the doctoral level, Liberty offers educational opportunities for students at every stage of life to develop into leaders of vision and integrity.

Liberty’s commitment to academic excellence is proven by its inclusion as a Doctoral University by the Carnegie Foundation. It is among only seven percent of schools in the country to receive this prestigious designation.

The faculty at Liberty challenge students to think critically and creatively, and to become capable men and women of character who will make a positive impact in their communities and in the world. Service to others isn’t just a concept taught in Liberty classrooms; it’s a conviction our students and alumni live out every day.

It stands on the north end of campus near The Food Court at Reber-Thomas and houses the John W. Rawlings School of Divinity as well as spaces for special events.

JERRY PREVO BIO JERRY PREVO An entrepreneur and Baptist minister, Jerry Prevo has been a member of the Liberty University Board of Trustees since 1996 and filled the role of Board Chairman since 2003. He recently retired as the senior pastor of Anchorage Baptist Temple in Anchorage, Alaska, where he served for 47 years.

Raised in Tennessee, Prevo graduated from the Baptist Bible College and completed other work at various universities, including the University of Tennessee, Belmont College, and Tennessee Temple.

He moved to Alaska in 1971 to take over a small mission work, where he put his entrepreneurial skills into action. Over time, he expanded the church congregation, including the implementation of a bus service to pick up children for Sunday

services and, by extension, their parents.

In the mid-1970s, the mission work purchased 20 acres and built a whitesteeple building to hold services, and in 1992, a 43,000-square-foot auditorium was completed.

Prevo has witnessed Anchorage Baptist Temple become one of the largest churches in Alaska. The services have drawn an average of more than 2,000 people per week. The church also offers education for preschool through senior high at Anchorage Christian Schools — the largest Christian school in Alaska — and ministers through its television station.

Additionally, Prevo is the CEO and chairman of Christian Broadcasting Inc., which he started and now has three stations and two broadcasting towers in Anchorage, Alaska.

In 2020, Prevo took on the role of President of Liberty University following Jerry Falwell Jr.’s resignation. In accepting this role, he stepped down as Board Chairman and officially began his new duties in August 2020.

IAN MCCAW BIO IAN MCCAW

Ian McCaw has a vision for Liberty Athletics, and he has worked quickly to make that vision a reality since being named the department’s 11th director of athletics on Nov. 28, 2016.

His vision is for Liberty’s intercollegiate athletics program to Train Champions for Christ, provide a world-class student-athlete experience, and achieve victory with integrity.

McCaw has lived out this mission, guiding Liberty Athletics to unparalleled success on the field, in the classroom, and in the local community in a short time on Liberty Mountain.

Heading into the 2020-21 athletics season, Liberty’s teams have captured 26 total conference titles since McCaw’s arrival on Liberty Mountain. The Flames Football program won it’s first-ever bowl game, men’s basketball captured it’s first-ever NCAA Tournament victory, and Liberty studentathletes have posted department record numbers in GPA and graduation success rate.

During Liberty’s final two seasons as a member of the Big South Conference, McCaw guided Liberty Athletics to its 13th and 14th Sasser Cup titles in 2017 and 2018, an annual award given to the top athletics program in the conference.

McCaw also helped pave the way for the future of Liberty Athletics on May 17, 2018, when it was announced that 17 of the 20 NCAA Division I programs would end a 27-year run in the Big South Conference to join the ASUN Conference for the 2018-19 athletics season.

Under McCaw’s leadership, Liberty Athletics wasted little time making an impact in the ASUN Conference. During its inaugural season as a conference member, Liberty’s Athletics programs captured seven ASUN championship titles, including men’s basketball (regular season and tournament), baseball (tournament), women’s tennis (regular season), men’s indoor track & field, women’s indoor track & field, men’s outdoor track & field, and women’s outdoor track & field.

Additionally, Liberty Athletics was awarded the Bill Bibb Trophy, which is presented to the ASUN Conference institution with the top overall athletics program.

Liberty was also presented with the ASUN Conference’s Jesse Fletcher (Men’s All-Sports) and Sherman Day (Women’s All-Sports) Trophies. This marked the third time in conference history a member institution has swept all three honors and the first time since FGCU did so in 2012-13.

Less than three months into his time at the head of the Athletics Department, McCaw helped launch Liberty to the top level of intercollegiate competition. On Feb. 16, 2017, Liberty received notification that the NCAA had approved its request to enter into a two-year Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) reclassification process.

McCaw led Liberty during its final season as a Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) independent in 2017 and guided the Flames into their first season at the FBS level in 2018 — fulfilling the vision of university founder, Dr. Jerry Falwell, for Liberty’s Athletics programs to compete at the highest level of NCAA competition.

E DUCATION: B.S., MATHEMATICS (SOUTHERN MISS, ’92) HOM E TOW N: OXFORD, MISS. W IF E : JILL CHIL DRE N: RAGAN, JORDAN, AND MADISON

A winning tradition at the highest level of NCAA collegiate football was brought to Liberty Mountain when Hugh Freeze was introduced as the ninth head coach in football program history on Dec. 7, 2018.

Additionally, Freeze guided the Flames through one of the most unique seasons in NCAA college football history in 2020 where Liberty finished the year ranked No. 17 in the country and tied a program record with a 10-1 overall record.

Just like the other stops along his storied coaching career, Freeze has quickly elevated Liberty’s program to unprecedented success during his short time with the Flames.

After leading the Flames to an 8-5 record in 2019 and a 10-1 mark in 2020, Freeze has posted a combined 60-38 mark in nine seasons as a head coach (See ^ note below for more information about his career coaching record).

Freeze has experienced similar success at each of his head coaching stops: Lambuth University (2008-09), Arkansas State (2011), Ole Miss (201216), and Liberty (2019-20).

Liberty is the second team in NCAA history to win a bowl game during its first two full seasons at the FBS level (2019 and 2020), both coming under Freeze’s leadership.

Freeze’s renowned high-powered offense allowed two of the program’s best offensive standouts to cement their names in Liberty’s record books with numbers that may last for quite some time during his first seasons at Liberty.

Wide receiver Antonio Gandy-Golden finished his career as the program’s all-time career leader in receiving yards (3,814), receptions (240), and

HUGH FREEZE BIO touchdowns. Gandy-Golden was a semifinalist for the 2019 Biletnikoff Award and was named to the Phil Steele All-America team.

Quarterback Stephen Calvert completed his days in a Liberty uniform passing for a program record 12,025 career passing yards, 93 career touchdowns, and 896 career competitions.

As a team, Liberty finished the 2019 season ranked No. 21 in the country in passing offense (288.9 yards per game) and No. 32 in total offense (439.4 yards per game). Liberty posted an 8-5 record, the most wins for a Flames football team since 2014.

When hired at Liberty on Dec. 7, 2018, Freeze brought over 25 years of continued coaching success, including head coaching experience that has led to conference titles, nationally ranked recruiting classes, and bowl appearances at multiple stops.

Prior to his current coaching position at Liberty, the native of Oxford, Miss., returned to his hometown school and led it back to championship form during his five seasons as head coach at Ole Miss (2012-16).

Freeze guided Ole Miss to bowl games during three of his five years with the Rebels, including victories in the Music City Bowl (2013) and the Sugar Bowl (2015).

Freeze’s time in Oxford was highlighted by a 10-3 campaign in 2015, the program’s first 10-win season since 2003. The Rebels won their first four games of the 2015 season, including a 43-37 road victory over No. 2 Alabama, Ole Miss’ first win in Tuscaloosa, Ala., since 1988.

Alabama went on to claim the national title, finishing the season with a 14-1 overall record.

The Crimson Tide’s loss to Ole Miss marked the third time in program history that the Rebels were the national champion’s only loss during their championship season.

The 2015 campaign also included a thrilling 38-27 win over No. 21 Mississippi State in its rivalry “Egg Bowl” game with the Bulldogs and a 48-20 win over No. 16 Oklahoma State in a New Year’s Sugar Bowl contest.

Ole Miss was ranked as high as No. 3 in the national polls in both 2014 and 2015 and finished top 10 in the country for the first time since 1969 after the Sugar Bowl win (No. 9 in the coaches poll and No. 10 in the Associated Press poll).

34

Ole Miss was a mainstay in the national polls during Freeze’s tenure, including top 25 rankings for 45 weeks over his five-year coaching stay and a string of 27-straight weeks in the polls for the first time since 1957-62.

In 2013, the Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) awarded Freeze the Grant Teaff Coach of the Year award. Freeze has been heavily involved with FCA during his entire coaching career and has been featured in the FCA Magazine and spoken at FCA functions.

Freeze was also a finalist for the 2014 Bear Bryant Award and the 2014 Dobb Trophy. The Bear Bryant Award is given annually to the top NCAA National Coach of the Year, while the Dobb Trophy honors the head coach whose team excels on the field, in the classroom, and in the community.

Freeze has an eye for the nation’s most talented high school players, collecting four nationally ranked recruiting classes at Ole Miss. In 2013 and 2016, his recruiting classes ranked in the top five nationally, making them the best in program history.

Freeze and his staff developed 20 players who earned All-SEC honors, including All-Americans Cody Prewitt, Senquez Golson, Robert Nkemdiche, Laremy Tunsil, Evan Engram, Laquon Treadwell, and Trae Elston.

Treadwell was named Ole Miss’ first ever SEC Freshman of the Year in 2013 and became the school’s first Biletnikoff Award finalist in 2015.

Nkemdiche was the first defensive lineman to be named a Hornung Award finalist. Engram won the Ozzie Newsome Award and Pop Warner College Football Award following the 2016 season.

Eleven Ole Miss players were selected in the NFL Draft during Freeze’s time as head coach, including first-rounder Engram as well as D.J. Jones, Derrick Jones, and Chad Kelly hearing their names called in the latest draft. In 2016, the Rebels had three first-round draft picks in Tunsil, Treadwell, and Nkemdiche. Donte Moncrief, Senquez Golson, Fahn Cooper, and Cody Core were also drafted over the last four years.

Before returning to Oxford, the former Ole Miss assistant experienced a record-setting run at Arkansas State.

With Freeze as head coach in 2011, the Red

HUGH FREEZE BIO Wolves captured the Sun Belt Conference championship and became just the third school in Sun Belt history to finish undefeated in league play with a perfect 8-0 mark. The 10-2 overall record marked the program’s first 10-win season since 1986, when ASU was a member of the I-AA Southland Conference.

In the best debut season ever by an A-State head coach, Freeze became just the 14th FBS first-year head coach to win 10 regular season games. He also returned ASU to a bowl game for the first time since 2005.

Freeze was named Sun Belt Coach of the Year, while 13 of his pupils earned all-conference honors. Freeze’s first season in Jonesboro saw him serve as Arkansas State’s offensive coordinator, guiding the Red Wolves’ offense to a record-breaking year in 2010.

ASU, ranked No. 42 in the nation in scoring offense, finished the season averaging 30 points a game and recorded at least 20 points in 11 consecutive games for the first time in school history. Freeze’s offense scored 46 touchdowns for the fourth-most in school history and the most since the 1975 season.

Prior to his arrival at Arkansas State, Freeze compiled a 20-5 record over the 2008 and 2009 seasons at the helm of the Lambuth University football program in Jackson, Tenn.

Freeze was named the American Football Coaches Association’s Southeast Region Coach of the Year in 2009 after leading the Eagles to their best regular season in school history with an 11-0 record.

Prior to taking over as head coach at Lambuth, Freeze served on the Ole Miss staff from 2005-07, including the final two seasons as an assistant coach.

Before going to Ole Miss, Freeze served 13 years at Briarcrest Christian School (Memphis, Tenn.) as a classroom teacher, coach, and administrator. He was the Saints’ head football coach from 1995 to 2004, running the nohuddle “spread system” for six years that led to six straight state championship games.

Freeze compiled a 99-23 record while at Briarcrest, which included an undefeated season in 1996, and led the school to state championship titles in 2002 and 2004. Briarcrest won regional titles in 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 2001, and 2002, and Freeze was named the

36

Region 8-AA Coach of the Year five times and Associated Press Coach of the Year four times.

Among his talented pupils during that period were eventual Rebels and former NFL starters Michael Oher and Greg Hardy.

Before assuming the role of head coach at Briarcrest, Freeze served as the teams’ offensive coordinator and defensive backs coach from 1992-94, as the Saints reached the TSSAA state semifinals twice.

A 1988 graduate of Senatobia High School, Freeze received an associate degree from Northwest Mississippi Community College in 1990 and was a two-year letterwinner on the Ranger baseball team. He earned his bachelor’s degree in mathematics with a minor in coaching and sports administration from the University of Southern Mississippi in 1992.

It was while attending USM that he became active in mission projects, serving as a missionary in Houston, Salt Lake City, St. Petersburg, Russia, and Australia. Freeze also served as the state president for the Mississippi Baptist Student Union.

Born in Oxford and raised in Independence, Mississippi, Hugh and his wife, Jill, are the parents of three daughters: Ragan, Jordan, and Madison.

LIBERTY UNIVERSITY CHEERLEADERS

2019 AND 2020 CURE BOWL REVIEW 2019 FBC MORTGAGE CURE BOWL

Exploria Stadium (Orlando, Fla.) – December 21, 2019

2019 GAME RECAP: In a season that saw the offense grab most of the attention with its gaudy numbers, it was the Liberty defense that showed up in its biggest game, as a stout defensive effort led Liberty to a 23-16 win over Georgia Southern in the 2019 FBC Mortgage Cure Bowl.

With the win, the Flames cap off a memorable first full season at the FBS level with an impressive 8-5 record - Liberty completed its FBS reclassification process in August, received its first-ever bowl game invitation on Dec. 8, and walked away from Exploria Stadium with a bowl game trophy in hand.

Liberty’s defensive effort held Georgia Southern to 154 rushing yards, a single rushing touchdown, and three field goals in the victory. On the day, the Flames outgained the Eagles in total offense (402 to 249).

Flames defensive end Jessie Lemonier was named the 2019 Cure Bowl MVP, finishing the game with eight tackles, including two sacks.

Liberty’s four-year starting quarterback Stephen Calvert finished the day completing 16-of-35 attempts for 270 yards and two touchdowns. He ended his career as the program’s all-time career leader in passing yards (12,025), completions (896) and touchdowns (93).

FBS ON THE RISE The NCAA approved Liberty’s waiver request to transition to the FBS level on Feb. 16, 2017 and has quickly found success at the highest level of college football.

2020 FBC MORTGAGE CURE BOWL

Exploria Stadium (Orlando, Fla.) – December 26, 2020

2020 GAME RECAP: Liberty’s Elijah James blocked a game-tying field goal attempt in overtime, securing No. 23 Liberty’s 37-34 win over No. 9 Coastal Carolina in the 2020 FBC Mortgage Cure Bowl.

The Flames finished their second season of full FBS bowl eligibility with a 10-1 record, winning the FBC Mortgage Cure Bowl for the second year in a row.

Liberty is just the second team (also Appalachian State) to win bowl games in each of its first two seasons of bowl eligibility following a transition from the FCS. Liberty snapped Coastal Carolina’s (11-1) 12-game winning streak, which was tied for the longest FBS winning streak in the nation.

Liberty quarterback Malik Willis was named Cure Bowl MVP after totaling 357 yards of offense and rushing for a Cure Bowl-record four touchdowns.

Liberty earned its first-ever win over an FBS Top 25 program and knocked Coastal Carolina from the ranks of the unbeaten for the second time ever. The Flames defeated then 11-0 CCU by a 15-14 score on a lastsecond blocked field goal on Nov. 22, 2014.

YEAR OF FIRSTS • First team to ever be nationally ranked (No. 25 in the AP poll on Nov. 1, 2020) • Best ever end of the year national ranking: • Associated Press Poll - #17 • Amway Coaches Poll - #18 • First team to defeat a nationally ranked FBS team (No. 9/11 Coastal Carolina on Dec. 26, 2020) • First team to defeat an ACC team (Virginia Tech on Oct. 17, 2020) • Best start in school history (8-0 record) • First Group of Five school to beat two ACC schools in the same season since Houston in 2015

LIBERTY FOOTBALL CENTER ABOUT The Liberty Football Center (LFC) is a 65,455-square-foot facility located in the north end zone at Williams Stadium that was renovated and reopened in Spring 2020.

Shortly after the completion of the 2018 football season, Liberty began the renovation project to expand its football operations center that originally opened in 2006 and was known as the Football Operations Center (FOC). The recently completed renovation project added 18,000 square feet to the three-story facility.

The top floor of the newly renovated facility houses 17 offices, 10 position meeting rooms, and offensive and defensive meeting rooms, plus a 147-seat, theater-style team meeting room.

The middle floor of the building, located on ground level, includes a new locker room with 122 lockers and an attached equipment room to better service Liberty’s football players.

68

This floor also houses a 13,000-square-foot player’s lounge, including a nutrition center, and can accommodate up to 130 people. The area also will be used as a recruiting area during home football games.

A glass enclosed cardio workout room replaced the existing front entrance to the operations center, and the workout area overlooks the lower level.

Rounding out the new amenities of this floor is a press room for weekly press conference and postgame interviews, plus a new training room. The sports medicine area also includes 11 treatment beds, an on-site x-ray room, and hydrotherapy pools.

Closing out the facility is a state-of-theart weight room in the lower level of the operations center. The 16,000-square-foot workout space is furnished with the latest training equipment, allowing Liberty’s players to prepare themselves to excel at the highest level of college football.

FLAMES SPIRIT AND TRADITION THE NICKNAME The Liberty University athletics teams have been nicknamed the Flames since 1974, when the student body chose the Flames over several other options. The decision was based upon the school’s motto, “Knowledge Aflame.”

Liberty began in 1971 as Lynchburg Baptist College with green and gold as the school’s colors. In 1976, the name was adjusted to Liberty Baptist College, and the colors were changed to red, white, and blue. The school once again changed its name in 1985 to Liberty University. However, throughout the shifts, “Flames” remained the nickname for Liberty’s athletics teams.

In 1980, the eagle was designated as the Flames’ new mascot because of the patriotic symbolism and connection with the school name. It was designed with the Flames’ nickname in mind. Thus, a flaming torch clutched in the eagle’s left talon was included in the original mascot renderings.

UNIVERSITY FEATURE STORY LIBERTY TO NAME INDOOR TRACK IN HONOR OF LEGENDARY COACH One of the facilities that he helped build during his historic 34-year coaching career will now bear the name of former Liberty Track & Field Head Coach Brant Tolsma.

To honor his commitment and passion to build a nationally recognized track & field program, Liberty will name the track inside the Liberty Indoor Track & Field Complex the Brant Tolsma Indoor Track.

A ceremony will be planned during the 2021-22 indoor track & field season to publicly recognize Tolsma with this honor.

“The Liberty track & field program has been a hallmark of excellence under the leadership of Coach Tolsma,” said Director of Athletics Ian McCaw. “His astounding number of conference championships and coach of the year awards is unprecedented, and the influence he had on student-athletes is extraordinary. We are grateful for the support of President Prevo and the Board of Trustees to honor Coach Tolsma with the naming of the Indoor Track in his honor.”

Liberty added the state-of-the-art indoor track facility to its list of numerous new athletics complexes when the Liberty Indoor Track & Field Complex opened in January 2017.

Tolsma closed out his storied coaching career at Liberty (1986-2020) following the 2020 indoor track & field season.

Tolsma was at the helm of Liberty’s cross country and track & field programs for 34 seasons, guiding Liberty’s teams to an astonishing 116 conference championships and coaching six NCAA Division I individual national champions.

Tolsma won a total of 71 Big South Coach of the Year honors, six ASUN Coach of the Year recognitions, and two NCAA District Coach of the Year awards. Meanwhile, Tolsma’s athletes earned a combined 61 All-America honors since the program moved to the NCAA Division I level in 1989.

During the 2009-10 athletic year, Tolsma led Liberty to all six Big South titles (men’s and women’s cross country, indoor track and outdoor track), becoming the 10th different school in NCAA Division I history to accomplish this feat in a single season.

Tolsma guided Liberty to eight consecutive Big South men’s Triple Crowns, as the Flames swept every conference men’s cross country, men’s indoor track & field, and men’s outdoor track & field title between Fall 2006 and Spring 2014. Tolsma and legendary Kansas head coach Bill Easton (1951-59, Big 8 Conference) are the only two coaches ever to lead their teams to eight straight men’s Triple Crowns in an NCAA Division I conference.

The 169,000 square-foot complex stands beneath the illuminated monogram on Liberty Mountain, standing as a testament to the standard of excellence Tolsma established for Liberty’s men’s and women’s cross country and indoor and outdoor track & field programs.

The track itself is the facility’s most dynamic feature and one of only a handful of indoor tracks in the U.S. to offer a six-lane, 200-meter, hydraulically banked oval. Other such tracks are located at Navy, Nebraska, Penn State, Texas A&M, and VMI. The track surface was manufactured by Beynon, the company that also resurfaced Liberty’s outdoor Matthes-Hopkins Track Complex and the University of Oregon’s Hayward Field, which will play host to the World Championships in 2022.

FLAMES ATHLETICS FEATURE LIBERTY MOVING TO CONFERENCE USA FOR 2023-24 SEASON

berths, 100 NCAA soccer tournament appearances, including five trips to the College Cup, and 41 individual national champions in track & field and cross country.

Liberty recently announced a new direction for its athletics department as conference membership for its athletics programs will move to Conference USA, starting with the 2023-24 athletics season.

The league celebrated its first team national championship with Marshall winning the 2020 Men’s Soccer College Cup with a thrilling overtime victory.

Conference USA will be the all-sports conference for Liberty Athletics, including the Flames’ football team that has competed as an FBS independent program since moving up to the FBS level in 2018.

Along with Liberty, Conference USA announced the addition of three other new members this afternoon: Jacksonville State University (Jacksonville, Ala.), New Mexico State University (Las Cruces, N.M.), and Sam Houston State University (Huntsville, Texas).

Liberty enters Conference USA on the heels of its most successful year in athletics department history.

Liberty finished the 2020-21 athletics season with an overall winning percentage of 70.5 percent (22090-7) while winning 10 conference championships and a bowl game.

Football had a season of “firsts” in 2020, including the team’s first-ever national ranking, first win over an ACC opponent, the best start in school history (8-0 to start 2020), first-ever win over a top-25 FBS program, and back-to-back bowl game wins.

With a victory over Coastal Carolina in the 2021Cure Bowl, Liberty became the second transitioning team in NCAA history to win consecutive bowl games during its first two full seasons at the FBS level.

During the 2020-21 season, Liberty claimed conference titles in men’s basketball, men’s golf, men’s indoor track & field, men’s outdoor track & field, men’s tennis, softball, women’s cross country, women’s outdoor track & field, women’s soccer, and women’s swimming & diving.

For the last three seasons, 17 of Liberty’s 20 NCAA Division I athletics programs have found a conference home as a member of the ASUN Conference (Football – FBS independent; Field Hockey – BIG EAST Conference; Women’s Swimming & Diving – Coastal Collegiate Sports Association).

About Conference USA Debuting in 1995, Conference USA teams have combined for 121 bowl appearances in football, 112 NCAA Tournament appearances in basketball, including three Final Fours, 77 NCAA baseball appearances, including six College World Series

Success is not limited to athletic achievement as more than 265 Conference USA student-athletes have garnered CoSIDA Academic All-America® honors, and more than 877 have achieved academic all-district laurels and thousands of student-athletes have earned a college degree.

Conference USA currently sponsors competition in 20 sports – nine for men (baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, soccer, tennis, and indoor and outdoor track & field) and 11 for women (basketball, beach volleyball, cross country, golf, soccer, softball, swimming & diving, tennis, indoor and outdoor track & field, and volleyball).

“With this invitation to join Conference USA, there is no doubt that Liberty Athletics is on the rise. Today marks a monumental achievement in Liberty’s 50-year history and helps fulfill one of the grand visions of my friend, Dr. Jerry Falwell, Sr. Our athletics program, headed by Ian McCaw has seen tremendous growth and success in one of the most competitive eras of intercollegiate sports. I am proud of the efforts of his team, our many coaches, and our student-athletes. I am looking forward to many more years of record-breaking success for our very bright and gifted Liberty University studentathletes.”

-Dr. Jerry Prevo Liberty University President “On behalf of Liberty University, I want to thank Commissioner [Judy] MacLeod and the leaders in Conference USA for this exciting opportunity.

Today is another important advancement for our University, athletics program, and Flames Nation.

Liberty’s momentum and rapid upward trajectory in intercollegiate athletics will continue as we Train Champions for Christ, provide a high-quality student-athlete experience, and achieve victory with integrity as future members of Conference USA.” -Ian McCaw Liberty University Director of Athletics
