Mustang
FOOTBALL SATURDAY, OCT. 2
A span of playing three of its first four games inside the friendly confines of Elwood Olsen Stadium concludes this afternoon for Morningside University with the Homecoming 2021 game. Head coach Steve Ryan’s Mustangs move into the match-up with Midland University at 3-0 overall and in the Great Plains Athletic Conference. The visiting Warriors, coached by Jeff Jamrog, are 3-2 overall and 3-1 in the league.
A FESTIVAL ATMOSPHERE With the annual Taste of Morningside going on later this afternoon beside the Mason Family Tennis Complex adjacent to Olsen Stadium that partners with GPAC football action, a celebratory theme will be in the air for all in attendance. The Pride of Morningside marching band, Mustangs’ cheerleading and dance teams, the 2021 Homecoming court, and members of the M Club Athletic Hall of Fame Class of 2020-21 are just a few of the areas helping spotlight today’s gridiron clash. Head coach Alisha Knowler’s dance team and Dr. Martin Gaines’ marching band and introduction of the Homecoming court and the M Club Hall of Fame awardees are all part of an action-packed halftime, so be sure to stay in your seats.
THE SERIES Mside has won 16 straight and 21 of 23 all-time against Midland. That skein includes a 42-7 decision in Fremont last fall.
THE MATCH-UP Their last time out, Morningside, ranked No. 3 on the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics’ First Down Playbook Top 25, used a nearly seamless offensive surge early in the second half to ensure another Great Plains Athletic Conference victory Sept. 18 against Mount Marty. The afternoon had the partisan Mside crowd on its feet early. Senior running back Anthony Sims completed seven and eight-play scoring marches the first two times the home team had the ball with scampers of 54 and 10 yards, respectively. Senior return specialist Caleb Schweigart added a lightning strike of his own, dancing and weaving through the Lancers’ punt coverage unit and finding paydirt on a 72-yard scoring return to conclude a 21-point first quarter. MMU kept things at a 7-7 standstill in the second frame. Coming back on to their friendly FieldTurf after the intermission, Morningside’s offense returned to its first-quarter success formula. With senior quarterback Joe Dolincheck finding his talented receiving corps and the backfield tandem of Sims and freshman Ryan Cole, the Mustangs drove 75, 78, and 69 yards for touchdowns. Sims, concluding a monster early fall afternoon, added two more rushing scores as part of a 16-carry, 158-yard, four-touchdown resume. Dolincheck found senior wide receiver Reid Jurgensmeier (Wahoo, Neb.) for the other third-quarter touchdown. While the offense had more highlight-reel-worthy numbers, Morningside’s defense proved nearly impenetrable on the scoreboard, as has been the case over each of the season’s first three weeks. An impressive back-shoulder catch and spin move marked a big play scoring pass for the visitors, as MMU was held to 191 total yards. Senior linebacker Tyler Wingert, the two-time reigning GPAC Defensive

M Club Adds Seven to its Athletic Hall of Fame Roster Morningside University’s M Club inducted an impressive Class of 2020-21 earlier today as part of their Athletic Hall of Fame. The honorees, who will be recognized at halftime this afternoon, are as follows… Dan Callahan, men’s basketball - Callahan led the Morningside program from 1973-86. The then Chiefs turned in some halcyon days with him at the helm, producing six .500 or better marks, including back-to-back 20-plus win seasons in 1982-83 and 1983-84. Callahan’s program influence, which led Morningside to 176 wins, can still be felt today. Mark Faber, Steve Brandsma, and Daryl Schnoes rank among the top 20 all-time scorers, while he coached Mark Mohl, another member of the prestigious fraternity, for one season. Doug Marx and Dave Schessler, two more student-athletes he mentored over 13 seasons, have a high residence on the career scoring and offensive rebounding average categories. Cheryl Gamble, administrator – An athletic department coordinator for 23 years, Gamble served multiple roles for the university, including office and ticket manager for athletics and a significant role in gameday management duties across campus. She connected with countless students, coaches, and fans. Gamble comes from a family of athletic fanatics and often spent time at Morningside watching games and events before joining the staff. Chad Hustedt ’08, football - Hustedt is one of the most decorated football players in Morningside history. A four-year starter, Hustedt received All-America recognition as a sophomore, junior, and senior and is one of a limited number of players in Mustang history to be named first-team all-GPAC three times. Hustedt is the program’s all-time leader with 228 career solo tackles and 527 career interception return yards. He also amassed 182 assisted tackles, 410 total tackles, 25 pass breakups, 19 interceptions, 14 tackles for losses of 50 yards, four fumble recoveries, and two quarterback sacks during his career. Tim McCabe ’88, football - McCabe was a gridiron standout for the former Chiefs during the North Central Conference days. He arrived with what he described as a solid recruiting class in 1983 and was a starter early in his career. After a one-win campaign as a freshman, he played for 6-5 and 7-3 teams as a sophomore and junior. The 1985 squad narrowly missed an NCAA Division II playoff berth. They tied eventual national champion North Dakota State University on the road, lost a close-knit decision at the University of South Dakota, and missed a late field goal that would have beaten the University of Nebraska-Omaha on the road. During his senior year, in 1987, after an injury sidelined him the previous season, Morningside finished 4-7. McCabe’s gridiron story didn’t end in Sioux City, though. “I was offered a free-agent contract with the New Orleans Saints (after college),” he said. “I was with the team for most of camp and got cut among their final decisions. It was a great opportunity, though, as I was able to play in several preseason games, including one in the former Metrodome.” Whitney (McElrath) Lloyd, ’08, softball - (McElrath) Lloyd was a standout softball pitcher who won a school-record 92 games during her four-year career. Lloyd was an NAIA honorable mention All-American as a sophomore and made the NAIA All-America second team as a designated player following her junior campaign. She was a three-time first-team all-GPAC and a two-time NAIA all-region performer. Lloyd had a 92-42 record with 28 shutouts and a 2.02 earned run average and struck out 622 batters in 860.2 innings pitched over her career. At the plate, she batted .320 with 40 doubles, 19 home runs, and 124 RBIs. Jack Rother ’08, men’s basketball - Rother was a standout guard who graduated as the third leading scorer in Morningside history with 1633 career points and as the college’s all-time leader with 185 career steals. Rother averaged 12.5 points, and 1.4 steals per game over his four-year career and was a two-time NAIA All-American and three-time all-GPAC performer. He was also a two-time Academic AllAmerican, earning second-team honors as a junior and third-team honors as a senior. Rother was named Morningside’s MVP following his junior and senior campaigns. He helped lead the Mustangs to two NAIA national tournament appearances, the 2006 GPAC postseason tournament championship and the 200708 GPAC regular-season title. Rother was the leading scorer for the Mustangs’ 2007-08 team that posted a 29-4 record to set a school record for victories in a season, set a school record with a 23-game winning streak, won the GPAC championship with a 16-2 league record, and reached the Elite Eight of the NAIA Division II national tournament. Chris Schiltz, ’98, baseball - Schiltz was a three-time All-North Central Conference (NCC) outfielder and one of the greatest hitters in Morningside history. Schiltz was a first-team All-NCC performer as a freshman and sophomore and a second-team All-NCC pick as a senior. He graduated with three of the four highest single-season batting averages in Mustangs’ history, including a school-record .483 in his 1995 sophomore campaign to lead the nation in the NCAA Division II ranks. Schiltz collected 212 hits in 505 career at-bats for a .420 batting average with 49 doubles, four triples, 21 home runs, 151 RBIs, 104 walks, and 15 stolen bases. His .420 career batting average and career totals of 121 runs, 212 hits, 49 doubles, 151 RBIs, and 104 walks were all school records at his graduation.
continued from page one Player of the Week, turned in his second double-digit tackle effort with 13 hits, including a half-sack and two tackles for losses. Junior defensive back Jamal Jones also produced some points for the unit, with a 22-yard pick-six early in the second quarter. Dolincheck continues to add to his staggering career passing accolades. He needs only 31 yards today to hit the 3,000-yard mark for a third successive season and is closing on the 10,000-yard career platform with a total of 9,220 going into the Homecoming tilt. Along another individual career digit line, Sims became just the fourth running back in school history to reach 40-ormore rushing touchdowns with his effort against Mount Marty and is tracking closer to becoming the school’s fourth 3,000-yard rusher, as he is at 2,583. Morningside leads the NAIA in yards per game (619.3), passing yards per game (419.3), passing yards per attempt (12.3), punt return yardage (284), and extra point conversion accuracy (100 percent) among a large total of high marks through three outings. Spotlighting individual listings, Dolincheck’s 199.3 pass efficiency rating, 323 yards through the air per contest, and 70.2 percent completion success are all secondhighest; junior place-kicker Chase Carter’s 25 made extra points are thirdbest while his 100 percent accuracy in attempts is first, and Schweigart’s 284 yards in punt returns top the national numbers. Midland is led by a passing attack that has accumulated 1,163 of its offense’s 1,845 total yards. Both of those figures are part of the NAIA’s first 20. Jamrog’s crew has also been tough on opposing defenses late in possessions, as they’ve converted 34 third down and 14 fourth-down tries, which stand third and first in the nation, respectively. Junior quarterback Jake Ashby’s 558 passing yards and four touchdowns and senior two-position standout Dalton Tremayne’s 265 rushing yards and two scores to go along with 13 receptions for 228 yards guide the offense. Senior linebacker Trevor Havlovic (30 tackles, two-and-a-half sacks, and ten tackles for losses) and sophomore place-kicker Jared Quinonez (eight made field goals) have been vital providers.
