The Connecticut Football

PHILOSOPHY Academics Are The Priority

Community Service

Head coach Paul Pasqualoni and his staff emphasizes academics from the time that the recruiting process begins until a student-athlete has earned his undergraduate degree from the University of Connecticut…and the numbers prove this point. UConn was the top BIG EAST team in the NCAA’s Graduation Success Rate (GSR) survey in two of the past three seasons. In the latest NCAA Academic Performance Rate (APR) results, UConn scored an impressive 953 over a four-year period. The UConn football program had the third-highest GSR for the more than 50 public universities that played in a bowl game following the 2009 season. Husky football student-athletes use the Herb and Marcia Dunn Academic Support Center in The Burton Family Football Complex to assist in their academic endeavors.

Community service is an integral part of the UConn football experience. Husky football student-athletes perform numerous hours of community service throughout the year by visiting children at local schools, hospitals and other activities. One of the key community service activities of the UConn football team is service at East Hartford Middle School. The UConn football program has adopted the school and student-athletes make frequent visits to the school to provide mentoring and inspiration both in academics and athletics.

BIG EAST Champions Each and every year, the Connecticut football team expects to be a factor in the race for the BIG EAST Championship. That goal came to fruition in 2007 as the Huskies won the league title in just their fourth year as a member of the conference. UConn won its second BIG EAST title in four years in 2011.

Bowl Games Connecticut has now played in a bowl game in five of the past seven seasons, including four in a row, and has picked up victories in three of them. UConn made history in the 2010 season as it advanced to the Bowl Championship Series in its brief FBS history and played in the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl. Bowl-eligibility is one of the goals of the Connecticut football program every year and Husky fans have helped develop UConn’s reputation into a school that “travels well”.

Connecting With The Fans Husky fans have numerous opportunities to meet and greet the Husky coaching staff and players during the calendar year. Before each home game, UConn fans are encouraged to come to the “Husky Walk” as the team gets off the team buses and makes its way through a sea of Blue and White to their locker room. UConn fans are also invited to sing the “UConn Husky” fight song at the end of each home game at Rentschler Field.


Staying In Touch With Alumni The UConn football alumni are the roots of the excellence of the Husky program. UConn football alumni are more active and involved in the program than ever. For the past five seasons, former UConn head coaches and alumni have served as honorary coaches for the Blue-White Spring Football Game. In an effort to help members of UConn’s football team enhance their prospects for employment following college, the UConn football program sponsors a Career Information Fair twice a year. Football alumni are also invited to the field before home games to form a tunnel as the current Huskies come running out – a gesture that bonds generations of Husky players.

Strength and Conditioning In February, all season tickets holders and UConn Club members are invited to a “Signing Night Reception”, as head coach Paul Pasqualoni and his staff gives a video presentation on the latest crop of National Letter of Intent signees. Several current Huskies attend that event and sign autographs during a reception. UConn players meet fans for autographs following the Blue-White Spring Football Game and after an open practice that is held each preseason.

Facilities The State of Connecticut and the University of Connecticut have committed the finest facilities in the nation to the Husky program. UConn plays its home games in the ultra-modern Rentschler Field, which opened in 2003 and remains one of the newest stadiums used by a team in Bowl Championship Series Conference. The team also enjoys the modern amenities of The Burton Family Football Complex and the Mark R. Shenkman Training Center in Storrs. Both of these facilities opened in 2006 and provide Husky football players with a campus home that provides for all their needs.

National Leaders Running back Donald Brown became UConn’s first NCAA Statistical Leader in 2009 as he led the country in rushing yards. Last season, Nick Williams was the statistical leader for kickoff returns. The Huskies became eligible for the FBS Statistics in 2002 and have finished in the top 20 for total offense twice (2003 and ’04) and three times on defense (2002, ’05 and ’08).

Professional Football Former UConn players are in the National Football League in numbers that are unprecedented in school history. UConn had 11 players on active NFL rosters in 2009 – the most ever in school history – and nine last season. In the 2009 NFL Draft, UConn had four selections in the first two rounds – including the Huskies’ first-ever First Round Draft Pick in Donald Brown, who went to the Indianapolis Colts and then played in the Super Bowl in his rookie campaign. UConn has had ten players drafted in the past three years with numerous free agent signees and Canadian Football League performers.

The Rentschler Field Advantage The UConn football team takes great pride in its winning percentage at Rentschler Field. Since the stadium opened, UConn has won over three-quarters of the games played there and has posted victories over teams from the BIG EAST, ACC, Big Ten and Big XII at Rentschler Field. Husky fans have responded with a 96 percent capacity mark since the stadium opened. UConn has posted undefeated records at Rentschler Field in two seasons – both of them in years that the Huskies won BIG EAST Championships, 2007 and 2010.

The strength and conditioning program for UConn football players is among the most innovative in the nation and is coordinated by Jerry Martin – the school’s Strength and Conditioning Coordinator. Martin was the National Strength Coach of the Year in both 1994 and 2001. Husky players use the two-level, 18,000-square foot Polo Family Strength Center in the Mark R. Shenkman Training Center.

The Schedule Connecticut plays seven games against BIG EAST Conference opponents each year and will add an eighth next season with the addition of national power TCU. UConn schedules a competitive slate of nonconference games each season against a variety of opponents. UConn traveled to Notre Dame in 2009 and posted a double-overtime win at Notre Dame Stadium. The Huskies opened the 2010 season at Michigan Stadium against the Wolverines before 113,090 fans – the largest crowd in the history of modern college football. The Wolverines return the trip to Rentschler Field in 2013. The Huskies will play a home-and-home series with Tennessee beginning in 2015 with the Volunteers coming to Rentschler Field with a return trip to Knoxville in 2016. Other upcoming non-conference opponents coming to Rentschler Field include Iowa State (2011), North Carolina State (2012) and Maryland (2014).

RENTSCHLER FIELD

One of the Country’s Newest and Most Modern BCS College Football Stadiums

The 2011 season will mark the ninth year of play at Rentschler Field – one of the newest and most modern college football stadiums in the BCS. UConn has posted a 39-12 record at Rentschler Field – including undefeated seasons in the Huskies’ BIG EAST Championship seasons of 2007 and 2011. In just eight years of play, the UConn football team has welcomed over two million fans to Rentschler Field.


Football Saturdays are an important part of the social scene in Connecticut as the tailgating begins four hours before kickoff and a FanFest is held before each game. The Husky Walk is held about two-and-a-half hours before each game as fans are able to greet the team as it arrives at the stadium. Student support is a tremendous asset to the UConn football team as the “Dog Pound� provides vocal inspiration for the Huskies.


F

or 12 years running, UConn has been rated by U.S. News & World Report as the No. 1 public university in New England – and also ranks among the top 30 public universities in the nation. The University has been elected to membership in Universitas 21, a preeminent international network of leading research-intensive universities in 15 countries.

This is

UCONN

The University grants seven undergraduate degrees and offers more than 100 majors. The University grants 17 graduate degrees in more than 85 fields of study, and provides graduate professional programs in business, dental medicine, law, medicine, pharmacy, and social work.


More than 30,000 students are enrolled at UConn, representing nearly every state in the nation and more than 100 countries. The average SAT scores for incoming freshmen at Storrs are up over 100 points since 1996 and are now 1221. Minority students make up 23% of the 2010 incoming undergraduate class. Since 1995, 1,286 valedictorians and salutatorians have enrolled at all campuses. In fall 2010, 44 percent of freshmen entering the Storrs campus were ranked in the top 10 percent of their high school class and 79 percent were ranked in the top 25 percent of their class.

UConn continues to renew, rebuild and enhance our campuses through an unprecedented $2.8 billion, 20-year investment in the University’s infrastructure. UCONN 2000 has been the most ambitious publicly financed university building program in the country. Now in its 16th year, UCONN 2000 has invigorated the University’s living and learning environments, helped advance faculty research, and stimulated public and private investment. This investment revitalizes the state’s future by providing the means for the University to attract high-achieving students, prestigious faculty, and funding from public grants and private donors. The multibillion dollar facelift has facilitated UConn’s ascent to national prominence among public research universities.

The

BURTON FAMILY T

he University of Connecticut football team now enjoys the finest on-campus football facilities in the country – thanks in large part to the building of The Burton Family Football Complex.

Football Complex

The Burton Family Football Complex serves as the on-campus home of UConn football and complements Rentschler Field in East Hartford. The lead gift for the facility was a $2.5 million contribution by Robert G. Burton. Burton’s tremendously successful business career has included leadership in the printing and publishing industry, and his current role as Chairman and CEO of Cenveo, the third largest publicly traded printing company in the world, which is headquartered in Stamford, Conn.


Burton’s son, Michael, was the captain of the 1999 Husky football team. Burton has also donated in excess of $1 million to establish two endowed scholarships for UConn student-athletes. Construction on the facility began in the fall of 2004 and the building opened in the summer of 2006. “The Burton Family Football Complex is a key component of our continuing rise to national prominence in football,” says UConn Director of Athletics Jeff Hathaway. “All of us at UConn are very grateful to Bob and Paula Burton, along with the entire Burton family, for their generosity to our University and its football program.” The Burton Football Family Complex houses coaches’ offices and includes an academic resource center, team meeting rooms, a team locker room, a state-of-the-art sports medicine area, video facilities, a team dining hall, a student-athlete lounge and an equipment room.

The Burton Family Football Complex is the University’s first project certified as meeting the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) standards for “green” buildings. LEED designation is a process certifying that a building project meets a wide range of environmentally friendly criteria. This new construction marks the first college or university athletic project in the nation to earn the designation. The UConn Division of Athletics received an Environmental Leadership Award from the University of Connecticut for the work performed at The Burton Family Football Complex.

T

hanks to alumnus Mark R. Shenkman, the University of Connecticut now joins the ranks of major universities nationwide with an indoor training facility that is utilized by the football program, recreational services and other varsity sports. His $2.5 million gift, one of the largest ever to the UConn Division of Athletics, built an intercollegiate, intramural and recreational facility that serves the entire UConn community. The 85,000 square foot Mark R. Shenkman Training Center is the newest and most modern facility of its kind in the country. Construction on the facility began in the fall of 2004 and the Mark R. Shenkman Training Center opened in the summer of 2006.

MARK R. SHENKMAN Training Center


Featuring a 120-yard long state-of-the-art FieldTurf playing surface, an 18,000 square foot strength and conditioning area, and state-of-the-art video capabilities, the indoor training center provides UConn’s football team with the most technologically advanced training equipment. The Mark R. Shenkman Training Center is the University’s first project certified as meeting the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) standards for “green” buildings. LEED designation is a process certifying that a building project meets a wide range of environmentally friendly criteria. This new construction marks the first college or university athletic project in the nation to earn the designation. The UConn Division of Athletics received an Environmental Leadership Award from the University of Connecticut for the work performed at the Mark R. Shenkman Training Center.

A resident of Greenwich, Connecticut, Shenkman graduated from the Wilbraham & Monson Academy in Wilbraham, Mass. He received a bachelor’s degree in political science from UConn in 1965 followed by a master’s degree in business administration from The George Washington University. Shenkman is the founder and president of Shenkman Capital Management, Inc., a registered investment advisor with offices in New York City and Stamford, Connecticut. He currently serves as the Vice Chairman of the University of Connecticut Foundation Board of Directors and is Chairman of the Investment Committee. Shenkman was elected to the UConn School of Business Hall of Fame in 2002 and has endowed a classroom and the e-Commerce Chair for the business school. “We are very grateful to Mark and Rosalind Shenkman and their entire family for this significant enhancement to our athletic program,” says UConn Director of Athletics Jeff Hathaway. “Thanks to this gift, and the opening of the newest and most modern college football stadium in the country at Rentschler Field, our football program’s training and playing facilities are among the best in the nation. In addition, this landmark facility will provide all of our varsity teams with an outstanding training venue while adding to our recreational services offerings.”

Counseling Program for

INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETES T he Counseling Program for Intercollegiate Athletes, a unit within the Division of Academic Affairs, is the academic support program for The University of Connecticut’s 650 student-athletes. The primary goal of the program is to assist student-athletes in reaching their educational goals while they compete in intercollegiate athletics. As academic affairs officers, CPIA counselors function as liaisons between the athletic and academic communities. Our counselors work closely with coaches, faculty and a variety of campus resources in order to help facilitate students’ successful transition into college life by instituting academic and social support programs, including but not limited to Counseling, Pre-Advising, Tutorial and Life Skills Programs. The CPIA facilities for football student-athletes are housed in modern facilities in The Burton Family Football Complex and the Herb and Marcia Dunn Academic Support Center The location inside The Burton Family Football Complex ensures maximum use of a student-athlete’s time as they can now perform a number of football-related activities and perform academic work under the same roof.

TUTORING PROGRAM

At the beginning of each semester, student-athletes request and are assigned tutors based on their individual needs. Tutoring is done on an individual basis or in small groups so that each student-athlete can receive the best help available. Our tutorial staff consists of well-trained graduate and undergraduate students who have demonstrated high levels of proficiency in their respective subject areas.

STUDY HALL All freshmen and transfer students as well as some upperclassmen are required to attend study hall ten hours a week. Study hall is an interactive environment where students meet with their tutors and work on their assignments in their respective courses.

WEEKLY ACADEMIC MEETINGS All freshmen and at risk students will meet with their CPIA counselor at least once a week to review their course work, assignments, attendance and tutoring plan.

WEEKLY MEETING WITH COACH PASQUALONI UConn football coach Coach Pasqualoni meets with Ellen Tripp, the CPIA Football Program Director, on a weekly basis. Together they review each student-athlete’s academic progress. This provides valuable information for Coach Pasqualoni and his staff regarding each studentathlete’s academic performance.

Huskies “Play It Smart” LIFE SKILLS UConn football student-athletes can enroll in two Life Skills courses during their freshmen and junior year. The Freshmen Life Skills course is designed to provide the information, knowledge and confidence, which will enable the student-athlete to feel secure in a new environment and promote a successful transition from high school to college. The course helps develop a set of adaptive, coping, critical thinking and problem solving skills. It also acquaints the studentathlete with the resources that are available to balance the myriad of academic and athletic demands and adjust to college life. The primary goal of the Life Skills for Junior Student-Athletes Course is to provide information, techniques and strategies that will help students feel confident while making decisions about their future, post-collegiate lives. The focus of the class is to help students make a successful transition from college to the working world.

The University of Connecticut has had a number of former student-athletes on its roster that are or were products of the “Play It Smart” program of the National Football Foundation. “Play It Smart” was launched in 1998 and has proven to be one of the most effective youth development programs in the nation. Former UConn head football coach Bob Casciola was a key part of the formation of “Play It Smart” and was the Executive Director of the Foundation at the time. The program has shown that sports, when coached in the proper environment, can be used as an effective tool for significantly enhancing the academic performance and goal-setting practices of its participants. “Play It Smart” fulfills its mission by facilitating the hiring and training of “Academic Coaches” who work at high schools in underserved communities during the entire school year. Two “Play It Smart” graduates were seniors on the 2009 Husky team in Andre Dixon from New Brunswick, N.J. and Lindsey Witten of Cleveland, Ohio.

Current Husky Malik Generett of York, Pa., and William Penn High School was also part of the program.

LEARNING DISABILITY SERVICES If a student-athlete enrolls at the University of Connecticut and has a diagnosed learning disability, CPIA works with that particular studentathlete, the Learning Disability office and Disability Services to provide the student with the best support possible.

FRESHMAN SUMMER PROGRAM The Freshman Student-Athlete Summer Program began in the summer of 2006. The main goal was to acclimate the students to the University of Connecticut over a seven-week process and allow them to enroll in six credits of coursework which would introduce them to the collegiate academic setting as well as prepare them for their freshman year. The program introduces students to the rigors of university life, helps them develop the discipline and skills required to succeed academically, and provide orientation to the general campus community and facilities. Since writing is imperative to the academic process, CPIA works with the Freshmen English Department, to offer the choice of two writing courses. Students are enrolled in either a four-credit Basic Writing class or a Seminar in Writing through Literature course. They also enroll in a two credit “Transitions into College: Beginning Your Journey”, which specifically deals with the topics of transitioning into the collegiate environment and provides tools for students to discover in order to achieve their goals of academic success and ultimately, graduation from the University of Connecticut. These courses are the core of the Freshman Summer Program.

HUSKIES ARE A LEADER IN BIG EAST ACADEMICS The University of Connecticut football program continues to be a leader in the BIG EAST Conference in terms of academic performance by it student-athletes.

UConn was the top team in the NCAA’s Graduation Success Rate (GSR) in two of the past three years among BIG EAST schools. The UConn football program also had the highest NCAA GSR for African-American student-athletes among all state universities that participated in a bowl game in 2008.

In five of the past eight years, including 2007, ’08 and ’09, UConn was recognized by the American Football Coaches Association for its high graduation rate. UConn’s overall GSR in 2009 was the third-highest of the more than 50 state universities that participated in a bowl game.

In 2011, the NCAA’s Academic Progress Rate (APR) for the UConn football team was an impressive 953 over a four-year cycle, with a one year mark of 959 for the 2009-10 academic year.

STRENGTH & CONDITIONING T he strength and conditioning program for the University of Connecticut football players is coordinated and directed by UConn’s Strength and Conditioning Coordinator Jerry Martin. The UConn strength and conditioning program benefits all 24 of Connecticut’s intercollegiate teams. Todd Devers is in his first year as an Assistant Strength and Conditioning Coach at UConn and has primary responsibility of working with the UConn football team. Devers comes to Connecticut after being a member of the Dallas Cowboys’ strength and conditioning staff since 2007. UConn football players enjoy a brand new, state-of-the-art strength and conditioning facility at the Mark R. Shenkman Training Center – which opened in the summer of 2007 – in

The Polo Family Strength Center. The two-level strength and conditioning facility is over 18,000 square feet. The main strength area is more than 11,000 square feet and houses the primary exercise units. The balcony itself is more than 7,000 square feet and has a five-lane turf sprint area that is 70 yards long. The balcony also houses the secondary training equipment, which includes indoor computerized blocking sleds to measure reaction time and force production. Keiser air machines with computer interface measures power output in order to enhance sport performance and to quicken the rehabilitation process. The balcony also includes a number of aerobic pieces such as treadmills, stationary bikes and spin bikes for conditioning purposes as well as stair climbers and elliptical training equipment.


The main strength area has complete Championship Units. Each unit includes a multi-purpose rack, an Olympic platform, a multi-adjustable bench and a multi-use cable column. Each of these units also includes an adjustable dumbbell system ranging from 15 pounds to 105 pounds in 2.5-pound increments. Each Championship Unit encompasses its own Tendo weight lifting analyzer which when attached to the bar, gives peak power, average power and the velocity of the bar and the weight being lifted. The strength facility will be the only known paperless facility in the country, where each unit will have an interactive “controller box” with a screen. When the athlete enters his player ID code, his entire individualized workout will appear on the screen. Data completed by the athlete is then transmitted back via wireless communication to the server so that programs can now target individual athletes based on position and individual needs. This technology will allow for UConn’s strength and conditioning coaches to make fast and efficient analysis, interpretation of and program changes. The next time that athlete trains, his new updated program will once again appear on the screen of the “controller box”.

With all of this in place, the Mark R. Shenkman Training facility is the most modern, efficient and complete college strength facility in the United States. A unique part of UConn’s off-season training is a team competition that reflects the Bowl Championship Series. When the winter semester begins, 12 team captains are assigned. A draft is then held with five players on each team and there are six teams in a Blue and White conference. Individuals gain points in the competition for performance in the weight room and for other drills, such as the medicine ball, obstacle course and tire flip races. Academics and obligations in the athletic training room are also taken into account for an individual’s point total. As the beginning of spring football approaches, there are bowl games between teams. The top teams in each conference face off in the Rose Bowl while the second place teams face off in the Orange Bowl. The next two teams, regardless of conference, play in the Sugar Bowl and the next two play in the Fiesta Bowl. The goal of the program is to keep a competitive spirit throughout the UConn team during the offseason.


T

he University of Connecticut Division of Athletics believes that the responsibilities of student-athletes reach beyond classrooms, libraries, fields and courts. Community service is an integral part of the UConn experience as Husky student-athletes contribute countless hours each year to a number of worthy causes.

Husky players Kijuan Dabney and Emanuel Omokaro visit an elementary school in Hartford.

UConn football players perform numerous hours of community service throughout the year by visiting children at local schools, hospitals and other activities. The UConn football team makes several visits a year to the Connecticut Children’s Medical Center in Hartford. One of the key community service activities of the UConn football team include working with the students at East Hartford Middle School. UConn football student-athletes make frequent visits to the school to provide mentoring and inspiration both in academics and athletics. The UConn Division of Athletics and its community service program “Husky Reach” concluded the third year of its reading initiative in the winter of 2011 with the Verplanck Elementary School in Manchester, Conn. Through a generous donation by the SBM Foundation, UConn student-athletes visit Verplanck to participate in a variety of activities aimed at teaching the value of education, sportsmanship, integrity and teamwork. UConn’s continuing outreach partnership with Verplanck has served to motivate many of these boys and girls to read more books and appreciate the importance of learning. The “Husky Reach” program is committed to building a “culture of hope” among these young students that they can someday

attend college. Once again this year, through an initiative called the “Reading Millionaires Challenge”, the students read a combined one-million minutes of books – and for reaching this goal, they earned the trip to the UConn campus. The SBM Charitable Foundation was established in 2000 by Connecticut Bankshares, the parent company of the former Savings Bank of Manchester. The SBM Charitable Foundation, Inc., is committed to bettering the lives of those who live and work predominately in Hartford, Windham and Tolland counties. Other community service by UConn student-athletes is coordinated through the Student-Athlete Advisory Council. The Council consists of representatives from each one of UConn’s intercollegiate athletic teams and in addition to community service, it promotes fellowship and camaraderie between student-athletes from different sports. The SAAC had another successful year in 2010-11 as it held

various “drives” at UConn athletic events that collect gently-used coats and books, canned goods and other food items that are then distributed to worthy charities. One of these drives annually takes place at a late fall football game, where gently-used coats and other winter wear were collected.

ALUMNI A

s University of Connecticut football continues to progress as a NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision team, the roots of the program have not gone forgotten. In fact, UConn football alumni are more active and involved in the program than ever. Andy Baylock, a former UConn assistant football coach and longtime Husky baseball head coach, is the Director of Alumni and Community Affairs for the football team. All former UConn football alumni who are interested in reconnecting with the program should call Baylock at 860-486-2458. For the past five seasons, former UConn head coaches and alumni have served as honorary coaches for the Blue-White Spring Game. In 2011, two captains from the 2003 team – Sean Mulcahy and Uyi Osunde – served along with two captains from the 1990 team – Matt DeGennaro and Mike Rembish. The 2009 event saw the return of former head coaches Tom Jackson and Walt Nadzak who were joined by players Ken Sweitzer and Rick Jackson. In 2008, former head coaches Bob Casciola, who later went on to become the executive director of the National Football Foundation, and Larry Naviaux were joined by former players Brian Usher and Ray Tellier. In 2007, former head coaches Rick Forzano, who also coached the Detroit Lions, and John Toner,

who also served as UConn’s long-time athletic director and NCAA president, took part in the game. The players were Gary Blackney, who enjoyed a long collegiate coaching career himself, and Rick Robustelli. In an effort to help members of UConn’s football team enhance their prospects for employment following college, the UConn football program sponsors a Career Information Fair twice a year. These events feature many UConn football alumni from a wide range of professions and geographical areas. Working with these former UConn football players allow students to gain exposure to a wide variety of career opportunities that may interest them. Former UConn football players also guide current studentathletes through the networking process by putting them in contact with other professionals who may provide them with shadowing, internship and full-time employment opportunities. The 2011 Blue-White Spring Football game saw Sean Mulcahy, Matt DeGennaro, Mike Rembish and Uyi Osunde come back as honorary captains.

WALK-ONS W ith the limited number of scholarships each NCAA member is allowed and the highly competitive nature of high school recruiting around the country, the UConn coaching staff knows it can take no member of his team for granted. With that in mind, the Huskies rely heavily on those who choose to walk-on to the Husky football program in order to add reinforcement to the foundation. Although walking on to the team does not guarantee that one will become a scholarship player, the potential is there. Current sophomore Cole Wagner joined the team as a walkon punter and wide receiver prior to the 2009 season. After a redshirt year, the York, Pa., native turned his attention to punting only and wound up being the Huskies starter in 2010. Following his highly-effective season, Wagner has been awarded a scholarship for the upcoming year. Last season, Derek Chard was an invaluable member of the Husky squad serving as the team’s deep snapper. UConn converted all of its extra points attempts and 23 of 29 field goals starting with

a Chard snap. Originally a walk-on from Burlington, Conn., Chard earned a scholarship for his final two years at UConn. On a national level, perhaps the finest example of a walk-on making good in 2007 occurred at UConn with Donald Thomas of West Haven, Conn. Thomas barely played football in high school but walked onto the team as a sophomore. UConn’s starting punter Cole Wagner joined the UConn team Thomas developed into a as a walk-on and has now earned a scholarship for the 2011 season. starter at offensive guard and earned All-BIG EAST honors in 2007. Capping a remarkable story, Thomas was drafted by the Miami Dolphins following his senior year. Marcus Easley originally joined the Huskies as a walk-on in 2006 and then had a break-out senior season in 2009, where he made 48 receptions for eight touchdowns. The Stratford, Conn., native was then picked in the fourth round of the NFL Draft by the Buffalo Bills. Other walk-on success stories include: • Aaron Bryant of New London, Conn. who graduated in the spring of 2009 and earned three varsity letters playing in 25 career games and starting the final two regular season games of 2008. • Chris Pavasaris joined the team in 2003 and emerged as the starting punter for the Huskies and earned a scholarship. In 2006, he produced one of the top punting seasons in school history with a 40.1 yard average. An outstanding student, Pavasaris was a candidate for the Rhodes and Marshall Scholarships and earned CoSIDA Academic All-District recognition. • Justin DeRubertis of Bethel, Conn. played in 22 games from 2005-06 after starting as a walk-on for the Huskies. • David Sanchez of Windsor, Conn., graduated in 2005, earning a football scholarship after walking on as a wide receiver and played in 13 total career games. • Brian Sparks, a Plainville, Conn., native, was a three-year walkon member of the Huskies and was rewarded with a scholarship before his senior season of 2004. He closed out his career in fine form with a touchdown reception in UConn’s Motor City Bowl win over Toledo. • Shaun Feldeisen – a captain for the 2003 Huskies, who decided to come to UConn without a scholarship. Feldeisen’s chance to play came during the 2001 season as a wide receiver and the following year earned a scholarship. Feldeisen led the Huskies in receiving in ’03 and was also named a second team Academic All-America pick. • C.J. Hessel, a Fairfield, Conn., native who finished his UConn career in 2001, joined the team as a walk-on and wound up being voted a team captain. Derek Chard, who graduated last year, had the unheralded role of deep snapper in 2010 and originally joined the team as a walk-on.

The

BIG EAST E

Conference

ntering its 21st season as a football-playing entity in 2011, the BIG EAST Conference has been at the forefront of major college football since its formal entrance into the sport. By any objective metric, BIG EAST football has been an unmitigated success as the conference regularly puts its teams in position to compete for the Bowl Championship Series National Championship while amassing an impressive head-to-head record against its counterparts. Under its current membership configuration, which has been in place for six years, the BIG EAST is a combined 186-79 in nonconference games. The .702 winning percentage marks the best sixyear run in the history of the conference. In the past five seasons, the BIG EAST’s .725 nonconference winning percentage ranks second among all Bowl Subdivision conferences. In addition, the BIG EAST was a combined 4-2 in bowl games last season, marking the fifth straight season in which the league had a winning record in the postseason. In the Bowl Championship Series era (1998 to present), the BIG EAST’s .615 postseason winning percentage ranks second among all conferences and is the best of any BCS automatic-qualifying conference. The nonconference and postseason records both speak to the depth of the BIG EAST, which is the only conference that has seen each of its members play in at least one bowl game in the last two seasons. The BIG EAST is also the only league in which each team has won at least one bowl game in the last four years.

UConn players and coaches celebrate the Huskies’ 2010 BIG EAST Championship – their second in the past five years.

Six of the BIG EAST’s eight current members have won at least a share of the league title in the last seven years. Under the leadership of longtime commissioner Michael Tranghese, the BIG EAST Conference’s entrance into football was announced Feb. 5, 1991. The league gained instant credibility with its level of excellence on the field and with its television and bowl relationships. The BIG EAST has been a charter member of each of the major bowl agreements with the major conferences, beginning with the Bowl Coalition in 1992, followed by the Bowl Alliance in 1995 and the Bowl Championship Series in 1998. Since its birth, the BIG EAST has been a national power both on and off the field. The BIG EAST has been a frequent contender for the national championship. Eight times in the league’s 20 seasons, a BIG EAST squad has played for a claim to the national crown in a postseason game. The conference began a new era in 2009 when John Marinatto became the BIG EAST Commissioner. Marinatto was at the forefront of the league’s reorganization efforts which have made the conference as strong as it has ever been. The 2011 season will mark the fourth year of a six-year arrangement with ESPN that gives the BIG EAST unrivaled exposure on ABC television and the ESPN family of networks. ESPN, ESPN2 or ABC carry a minimum of 19 BIG EAST home games each season, marking the highest guaranteed total on ESPN and ABC in league history. Championship Week in December includes three BIG EAST games on either ABC, ESPN or ESPN2. At least four BIG EAST games are featured on ESPN’s Thursday-night package each year.

In addition, ESPN Regional will continue to produce and distribute its BIG EAST Network Game of the Week package to a nationally syndicated audience, reaching more than 30 million homes. Most of these games also will be available as part of the ESPN GamePlan subscription service. Finally, a minimum of five home games will be carried on ESPNU. Extensive television exposure and the BIG EAST have been synonymous terms. The league established its own regional fotball television package in 1991 before it had played a game. The BIG EAST Television Network immediately was the largest regional college football network in the country. The BIG EAST has always aligned itself with prestigious bowl games. The league is one of the original founders of the Bowl Championship Series and continues to be one of only six conferences that receives an automatic annual bid. The BIG EAST Conference champion earns the league’s automatic BCS bid. The BCS – which enters its 14th season in 2011-12 – is a five-game arrangement for postseason college football that is designed to match the two top-rated teams in a national championship game and to create exciting and competitive matchups between eight other highly regarded teams in four other BCS games. If the BIG EAST champion finishes No. 1 or No. 2 in the final BCS standings, that team earns a spot in the BCS National Championship Game. Otherwise, the league champion will compete in one of the four remaining BCS bowl games – the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl, Discover Orange Bowl, Allstate Sugar Bowl or the Rose Bowl Game presented by Vizio. Each bowl hosts two games once every four years - its traditional game plus the National Championship Game approximately one week later. The BIG EAST unveiled an enhanced collection of bowl partnerships beginning in 2010 that matches conference teams against opponents from the Atlantic Coast Conference, the Big 12 Conference, the Southeastern Conference and Conference USA. The Champs Sports Bowl has the first selection of BIG EAST teams after the conference’s BCS representative is determined. During the four years of the deal, the Champs Sports Bowl has the option to choose Notre Dame once in place of a BIG EAST team. The Atlantic Coast Conference will provide the opposition for the Champs Sports Bowl, which is played in Orlando, Fla.

The BIG EAST enters its 10th year as a partner with the Belk Bowl in Charlotte, N.C. Played in Bank of America Stadium, the Belk Bowl will select its BIG EAST participant after the Champs Sports Bowl with the ACC again providing the opponent. The BIG EAST and the Big 12 conferences partnered for a new bowl game in 2010 as the New Era Pinstripe Bowl was played for the first time at Yankee Stadium in New York City. In the event that the Big 12 is unable to send an eligible team to the New Era Pinstripe Bowl, Notre Dame could step in as the BIG EAST team’s opponent. A BIG EAST representative will face either an opponent from the Southeastern Conference or the Conference USA champion as part of a four-year arrangement with the BBVA Compass Bowl in Birmingham, Ala., and the AutoZone Liberty Bowl in Memphis. The BIG EAST will send a team to one of those bowl games in each year of the deal. The BIG EAST has been a partner with the BBVA Compass Bowl since 2006 and has seen its teams go 5-0 in the previous games. Louisville, Pittsburgh, Syracuse and West Virginia, meanwhile, have all played in the AutoZone Liberty Bowl in past years.

2011 Huskie s S e a s o n P r e v i e w

T

here is an air of excitement and freshness as the University of Connecticut football team enters the 2011 season. The Huskies are coming off their second BIG EAST Conference Championship in the past four years and their first-ever appearance in a Bowl Championship Series game. In addition, the program is experiencing a new energy with the debut of head coach Paul Pasqualoni. A Cheshire native returning to his home state, Pasqualoni has been a collegiate head coach for 19 seasons and has led teams to nine bowl games. He has extensive experience on all levels of football – from being an NFL coordinator to the high school level. Pasqualoni has built an incredibly experienced coaching staff for the UConn program. New offensive coordinator George DeLeone has coached for 40 seasons on all levels of football, including experience in 12 bowl games. Defensive coordinator Don Brown has had great success as a collegiate head coach at three different New England schools – leading them all to postseason play. Clayton White, a former NFL player and a standout performer at North Carolina State, has been brought on to be the special teams coordinator and work with the running backs. The UConn coaching staff also has six assistant coaches returning from last year to ensure continuity for the program. The group has an amazing 196 season of collegiate coaching and 42 seasons of head coaching.

OFFENSE

BACKFIELD

The UConn offense will have plenty of new faces looking for playing time at some key positions. The Huskies return five starters on the offensive side of the ball that will play in 2011 and lose five. All-

Isiah Moore 42 UConnHuskies.com

American tailback Jordan Todman declared for the NFL Draft after his junior year and dependable quarterback Zach Frazer has graduated. In addition, veteran fullback Anthony Sherman and experienced offensive guard Zach Hurd and Mathieu Olivier have all graduated. The quarterback spot looks to be a wide-open race for playing time. Redshirt sophomore Mike Box has the most experience out of any QB on the team as he played in five games last year and started one contest.

Adam Masters

Ryan Griffin


2 0 1 1 H u s k i e s S e a s o n Preview Also in the battle are redshirt freshman Scott McCummings and midyear enrollee Mike Nebrich. Redshirt junior Johnny McEntee and redshirt freshman Blaise Driscoll are also in the mix. Like the QB position, there will be plenty of opportunities in the running game for the returning players. Senior D.J. Shoemate, who transferred from USC for the 2010 season, played in all 13 games last year, but had limited carries with the ball. Redshirt sophomore Martin Hyppolite also played in 13 games, but some of those were on the defense. Redshirt freshman Lyle McCombs will get a long look at tailback as will redshirt senior Jonathan Jean-Louis, who has seen action on both sides of the ball during his career. Sophomore Jordan Huxtable will also look for playing time. The fullback spot has redshirt junior Mark Hinkley and redshirt freshman Reuben Frank in that spot. Mid-year enrollee Sean McQuillan will also get a chance there.

OFFENSIVE LINE Those listed as returning guards for the spring of 2011 lack game day experience, but have shown promise behind the scenes. Redshirt senior Gary Bardzak has been moved here from the center spot and has played in 12 career games. Redshirt freshman Guz Cruz has been a vocal leader already for the Huskies while redshirt sophomores Tyler Bullock and Steve Greene have seen limited playing time. Redshirt Joseph Danielson is also at this position. The tackle spot is full of veterans with redshirt senior Mike Ryan, who has 20 career starts (10 in ’10) and redshirt junior Adam Masters, who started 11 games last year and has 18 career starts. Both of them were key factors in Todman’s ability to be the second-leading rusher in the country last year. Ryan was a First Team All-BIG EAST pick in 2010. Redshirt freshman Kevin Friend played in six games last year with a pair of starts.

Center is another experienced spot with two-year starter Moe Petrus back, who has started a total of 39 games as a Husky. He was a Second Team All-BIG EAST pick last year. Other centers are redshirt freshman Bryan Paull and redshirt junior Ben Chapman.

WIDE RECEIVER/TIGHT END The tight end spot looks to be in good shape with a pair of redshirt juniors – Ryan Griffin, who started nine games last year and has 19 career starts, and John Delahunt, who saw playing time in all 13 games last year. Griffin has been named as a preseason candidate for the John Mackey Award. Griffin was the third-leading receiver on the team with 31 receptions while Delahunt had five. Redshirt junior Corey Manning and redshirt freshman Teddy Baker are also at tight end. There is experience back at wide receiver led by redshirt senior Kashif Moore, who was second on the team with 36 receptions and led the team with four touchdowns. Redshirt senior Isiah Moore had 15 receptions with a TD. A number of other players will be looking for playing time in the wide receiver rotation. Redshirt junior Gerrard Sheppard has played in 10 career games, while junior Nick Williams looks to be a factor and continue on kickoff returns, where he led the country in yards per return last year. Williams was a Second Team All-BIG EAST pick as a returner. Sophomore Leon Kinnard will line up at wide receiver this spring after playing in nine games last year at both quarterback and wide receiver. Redshirt freshmen Tebucky Jones, Geremy Davis are in the mix here as is redshirt sophomore Malik Generett, who will be looking for his first collegiate playing time. Sophomore Frank Guardi is also at wide receiver.

Redshirt junior Jimmy Bennett, who has been hampered by injuries during his career, is at tackle this fall and he is joined by redshirt sophomore Stephen Brown, redshirt freshman Mark Hansson and mid-year enrollee Dalton Gifford.

DEFENSE DEFENSIVE LINE

On the defensive side of the ball, the Huskies are experienced with nine starters and 17 lettermen back. The two departing starters are big in experienced linebackers Lawrence Wilson and Scott Lutrus, who combined for 91 career starts. The defensive end spot returns junior Jesse Joseph, who has 25 career starts under his belt and led the team with 12 tackles for a loss last year and 8.5 sacks. Junior Trevardo Williams played in all 13 games last year and made 29 tackles with 9.5 of them for a loss. Senior Marcus

Jesse Joseph 44 UConnHuskies.com

Dwayne Gratz

Campbell is also back here after missing the 2009 and ’10 season due to injury, but has played in 23 career games. Redshirt freshman Jonathan Louis will also look for playing time at the defensive end position, as will redshirt junior Teddy Jennings, redshirt freshman B.J. McBryde and mid-year enrollee Kenton Adeyemi. The options are many at defensive tackle, led by redshirt senior Kendall Reyes, a First Team All-BIG EAST pick last year. Reyes has 29 career starts, including 13 last year as he rotated between defensive end and tackle. Reyes had ten tackles for a loss last season with two interceptions.

Jerome Junior

Sio Moore


2 0 1 1 H u s k i e s S e a s o n Preview Redshirt senior Twyon Martin has also been a mainstay on the Husky defensive line with 31 career starts and had 30 tackles with five for a loss in 2010. Redshirt sophomore Shamar Stephen made 12 starts last year on the defensive line and 14 tackles with four for a loss. Redshirt junior Ryan Wirth and redshirt sophomore Tim Willman will look for increased playing time here. Redshirt freshman Angelo Pruitt is also at defensive tackle.

LINEBACKER The linebackers did lose key performers, but there is plenty of experience back. Leading the way is redshirt junior Sio Moore, who started nine games last year. Moore was the second-leading tackler on the team with 110 stops and 11.5 for a loss. Redshirt junior Jory Johnson played in nine games last year while classmate Jerome Williams saw action in 11 games. Experience senior Kijuan Dabney is at linebacker for this and redshirt sophomore David Kenney will be on the radar. Redshirt freshmen Andrew Opoku, Mike Osiecki, Yawin Smallwood and Brandon Steg all look for playing time as does redshirt junior Matt Edwards.

SECONDARY All four starters return for UConn in the secondary in redshirt junior Blidi Wreh-Wilson and redshirt junior Dwayne Gratz at the cornerbacks. Wreh-Wilson started all 13 games last year and made 56 tackles with four breakups. Wreh-Wilson returned four of his interceptions for TDs twice. Gratz, who had an interception return for a TD in the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl, also started all 13 games and was third on the team in tackles with 63 and a team-leading nine pass breakups. Redshirt senior Gary Wilburn, redshirt sophomore Chris Lopes, redshirt freshman Byron Jones will compete for playing time at cornerback. Sophomore Alex Kantor will also be in the mix. At the safety spots are redshirt junior Jerome Junior, who has 23 starts in two years, who was tied for fourth on the team with 59 tackles. Redshirt Harris Agbor, who was an Academic All-District pick last year, had 47 tackles with four for a loss. Redshirt freshman Ty-Meer Brown will look for his first collegiate playing time at safety. Sophomores Taylor Mack and Gilbert Stlouis will provide depth at cornerback. Also at that spot is redshirt sophomores Tevrin Brandon.

SPECIAL TEAMS Both specialists return for UConn in redshirt senior Dave Teggart, who kicked two game-winning field goals in 2010, including a 52-yarder that beat USF and put the Huskies in the BCS. Teggart was an All-BIG EAST pick and holds the UConn school record for field goals in a career with 52. Redshirt sophomore Cole Wagner is back at punter after having a successful first year as a starter. His 41.3 yard per punt average was third in school single-season history.

Nick Williams 46 UConnHuskies.com

Redshirt sophomore Chad Christen will once again handle kickoffs and holder duties and be the backup punter and placekicker.

Junior Nick Williams led the country in kickoff return average last year. He will be joined by redshirt freshman Byron Jones at the slot. Williams, Taylor Mack, Gary Wilburn and Leon Kinnard all have punt return experience from last year. Sophomore Adam Mueller will work at long snapper replacing the reliable Derek Chard.

Head Coach P a u l P a s q u al o n i

P

aul Pasqualoni became the 28th head football coach at the University of Connecticut on January 14, 2011. A native of Cheshire, Conn., Pasqualoni has extensive coaching experience on the high school, college and professional level and has served as a collegiate head coach for 19 seasons.

I am so excited for Coach P. He is an excellent coach and can coach at any level but I think he is a perfect fit as a head coach at the college level. Coach P. knows how to teach, he knows how to recruit, he knows how to run a college program. I always refer fondly to my days at Syracuse and one of the main reasons is that I loved playing football for Coach P. I grew in many ways while at college - as a person, as a student and as an athlete - and I owe a lot of that to Coach P..sd

Before taking the Connecticut position, Pasqualoni had been coaching in the National Football League as he was a member of the Dallas Cowboys staff (2005-07 and 2010) and the Miami Dolphins (2008-09). Pasqualoni worked with the tight ends (2005) and linebackers (2006-07) in Dallas. The Cowboys won the NFC East in 2007 and were a Wild Card playoff team in 2006. In 2007, the Cowboys’ defense limited opponents to 4.9 yards per play and were third in sacks. He rejoined the Cowboys staff in 2010 and became the defensive coordinator.

Paul Pasqualoni was named the 28th head football coach at UConn on January 14, 2011.


H e a d C o a c h P a u l P a squaloni He served as defensive coordinator with the Dolphins and his defense allowed just 19.8 points per game in 2008 as the Dolphins won the AFC East Championship. His 2009 defense led the NFL in sacks per pass attempt. Pasqualoni served as the head coach of Syracuse from 1991-2004 and led the Orange to nine bowl games and was the head coach at Western Connecticut from 1982-86 and led them to an NCAA Division II postseason appearance. Pasqualoni concluded his 14-year tenure as Syracuse’s second-winningest coach with 107 victories. He guided his teams to four BIG EAST conference titles, including a share of one in 2004 - his final year at the school -- and had a 6-3 postseason record. Among those appearances, he led the Orange to two Fiesta Bowl appearances (1992 season and ‘97 season) and a trip to the Orange Bowl (1998 season), in the first year of the Bowl Championship Series. Syracuse also played in the 2004 Champs Sports Bowl, 2001 Insight.com Bowl, 1999 Music City Bowl, the 1996 Liberty Bowl, the 1996 Gator Bowl (1995 season) and the 1992 Hall of Fame Bowl (1991 season) during Pasqualoni’s tenure. His Orange teams won 10 games in three different seasons - 1991, 1992 and 2001. He joined the Syracuse staff in 1987 and was an assistant coach there for four seasons before being named the head coach prior to the 1991 season, taking over for the legendary Dick MacPherson.

In addition to his successful collegiate coaching career, Pasqualoni also has served as an assistant coach in the NFL for six seasons.

The University of Connecticut has hired a quality man of great integrity--and a wonderful football coach. He is a leader, a great communicator, a dedicated professional and a winner.

Pasqualoni won the ECAC/Vince Lombardi Foundation Coach of the Year award in 1996 following his second-straight 9-3 season. He was named the 1992 and 1995 ECAC Coach of the Year for Division I-A.

In mid-June, Paul Pasqualoni spent a day at ESPN in Bristol, Conn., with interviews on several of the “World Wide Leader’s” television stations and internet platforms.

Pasqualoni served in leadership roles with the American Football Coaches Association Board of Trustees. He was appointed to the Board of Trustees in 1998 and served a three-year stint as a member of that group before becoming third-vice president for 2002. He was first vice president in 2004.

Don Brown Defensive Coordinator, Cornerbacks

D

on Brown, who has served as the head coach at three different schools in New England and has been the defensive coordinator at Maryland for the past two seasons, is in his first year as the defensive coordinator at UConn in 2011. He has position responsibility with the cornerbacks. Brown, a Spencer, Mass. native, was the head coach at Massachusetts (2004-08), Northeastern (2000-03) and Plymouth State (1993-95). He led UMass to the 2006 NCAA Football Championship Subdivision finals and has a career record of 95-45 as a collegiate head coach. In his two seasons at Maryland, the defense improved significantly in nearly every statistical category. The Terps ended 2010 ranked No. 38 nationally in scoring defense (22.2 points per game), No. 39 in total defense (352.3 yards per game), No. 21 in rushing defense (124.5 yards per game), ninth in pass efficiency defense (107.6 rating) and tied for 18th in turnovers gained (29). The Terps also broke up 58 passes which doubled their total from 2009. The 2009 squad posted the Terps highest sack total in five years (2.25 per game) and picked off six passes over the final four games. During his tenure at UMass, the Minutemen maintained one of the top defensive units in the nation. They finished among the top 20 in total defense in three of his five seasons and UMass was also first nationally in scoring defense in 2005. Brown led UMass to its best five-year span in program history as the Minutemen finished with 43 wins in his tenure, the third-highest total in school history. His winning percentage (.694/43-19) is tops in UMass history. In 2006 and 2007, he led UMass to a 23-5 overall record as the Minutemen earned NCAA FCS postseason berths both years, while winning consecutive conference titles. Brown led UMass to the 2006 national championship game after capturing the Atlantic 10 title with a perfect 8-0 record. UMass tied the school record for wins in a season with a 13-2 record and set a school-mark for wins in a row with 12. Brown was recognized nationally and regionally for the team’s accomplishments. He was named the 2006 AFCA Region I Coach of the Year, 2006 Atlantic 10 Coach of the Year and 2006 New England Football Coach of the Year. Prior to his head-coaching stint at UMass, Brown led the Northeastern Huskies for four seasons (2000-03). After taking over a team coming off a 2-9 record, with just two winning seasons in the previous 12 before his arrival, Brown led Northeastern to a 27-20 mark. The Huskies posted winning records each of his last two seasons, going a combined 18-7 during that span. In 2002, Brown led Northeastern to its best season in school history, as the Huskies went 10-3 and made the school’s only appearance in the NCAA Division I-AA playoffs.

Mike Foley Offensive Line

A

veteran of northeastern football coaching, Mike Foley enters his sixth season as offensive line coach at Connecticut. Prior to UConn, Foley completed 21 seasons of involvement with the football team at his alma mater, Colgate University. He had served as the Raiders’ offensive coordinator and offensive line coach since 1997. Foley and his offensive line have been key factors in UConn’s outstanding rushing game in 2009 and ‘10 as the Huskies featured two 1,000yard rushers in BIG EAST Player of the Year and All-American Jordan Todman (2009 and ‘10) and Andre Dixon (2009). The UConn offensive line led the BIG EAST Conference in fewest sacks allowed at 1.15 per game and were ranked 20th nationally. Foley and his offensive line were a key factor in Donald Brown achieving the status as the country’s leading rusher in 2008. In 2008, Foley coached First Team All-BIG EAST Conference selection Will Beatty at left tackle as Beatty later went on to play in the Senior Bowl and was selected in the Second Round of the National Football League Draft by the New York Giants. In 2005, his final year at Colgate, the Raiders posted an 8-4 record and advanced to the NCAA Division I-AA Playoffs. Foley helped coach all seven of Colgate’s NCAA Playoff squads, including the 2003 team that advanced to the National Championship Game. Of the 13 seasons in which Colgate was eligible for the playoffs with Foley aboard, the team qualified seven times. Foley also played a role in each of Colgate’s five Patriot League Championship teams (1997, 1999, 2002, 2003, 2005). Colgate broke the league record for rushing yardage three times under his tutelage, and led the Patriot League five out of his last nine seasons. During his tenure as offensive coordinator (1997-2005), Foley produced 39 All-Patriot League players including 13 on the offensive line. His offensive schemes and the line’s blocking helped pave the way for a pair of Walter Payton Award winners, Kenny Gamble in 1987 and Jamal Branch in 2003. He began his coaching career as offensive line coach at Bates College in 1978, before moving the next fall to Dartmouth as the freshman offensive line coach for one season. After one season as offensive line coach at Holy Cross in 1980, he returned to his alma mater as junior varsity head coach and varsity receivers coach. After two seasons in that position, he took over as offensive line coach in 1983. Foley added the duties of offensive coordinator in 1984. In 1986, he served as interim head coach during the absence of head coach Fred Dunlap, who was recovering from bypass surgery.  Following Dunlap’s retirement in 1987, Foley was named head coach of the Raiders,

Attendance – 113,090 ANN ARBOR, Mich. – Sophomore quarterback Denard Robinson rushed for 199 yards and passed for 187 more as Michigan defeated Connecticut in the season-opening game for both teams. The game was the rededication game of Michigan Stadium and played before a crowd of 113,909 - the largest crowd to ever see a professional or college football game in the modern era. Robinson set a Michigan school record for most rushing yards by a quarterback. Robinson also was an effective passer as he was 19 of 22 in the air. The Huskies were led in rushing by junior tailback Jordan Todman (North Dartmouth, Mass.) with 20 carries for 105 yards while starting quarterback Zach Frazer (Mechanicsburg, Pa.) was 18 of 37 in the air for 205 yards. The Wolverines outgained the Huskies in total offense by a 474-332 count. Michigan led 21-10 at the half and scored a field goal on its first possession of the second half in a drive that consumed 8:09. Brendan Gibbons connected on a 24-yard FG for the score. The Huskies were deep in UM territory late in the third quarter when junior tailback D.J. Shoemate (Corona, Calif.) was hit and fumbled the ball on a fourth down play after he gained enough yards for the first down. Michigan sealed the win with an 11-yard TD pass from Robinson to Vincent Smith with 13:07 to go that made it 30-10 after the Wolverines missed the extra point. Michigan scored a touchdown on its first possession of the game as it went on a 14 play-96 yard drive. Smith scored on a 12-yard run for the score as Denard Robinson had 69 yards of rushing. The following drive Connecticut moved the ball to the Michigan 23, but the Wolverines blocked a 40-yard field goal attempt. Michigan scored after the blocked field goal on a seven-play, 77- yard drive as Robinson was impressive again. He had 52 yards of rushing on that drive - including a 32-yard run for the TD and a 14-0 Michigan lead. He also completed two passes for 21 yards. Michigan made it 21-0 early in the second quarter as it went on an eight play-38 yard drive as it gained great field possession on a poor Connecticut punt. Michael Shaw ran for three yards for the TD. The Huskies came back and scored the final 10 points of the half to make it 21-10 Wolverines at halftime. Connecticut got its first points of the season on a 32-yard field goal by junior David Teggart that completed a 12 play-48 yard scoring drive. UConn then forced Michigan to punt for the first time of the game and the Huskies proceeded to score a touchdown on a 10 play-77 yard drive. Junior Mike Smith had two receptions on the drive for 68 yards – including a nifty 47-yarder where he maintained possession several times as the ball bobbled in his hands. Todman scored the TD on a two-yard run on a fourth down play.

2010 home opener, 62-3 over Texas Southern before a crowd of 37,359 at Rentschler Field. The Huskies leveled their record on the season at 1-1, while the Tigers drop to 0-2. The victory was the 67th win in head coach Randy Edsall’s career at UConn making him the school all-time winningest coach. Edsall, in his 12th year at UConn, passed the mark of J.O. Christian, who had 66 from 1934-49. Todman did all of his damage in the game’s first 27 minutes as the Huskies thoroughly dominated the contest. He narrowly missed topping his career-best rushing total of 162 yards and his 21 career rushing touchdowns tie him for 10th all-time at Connecticut with Jeff Gallaher. Also topping the 100-yard rushing mark in the contest was redshirt junior tailback Robbie Frey, who registered a career-best 101-yards, including a 63-yard touchdown run in the third quarter. Frey finished with two touchdowns among his 12 carries, as the Huskies had teammates top the 100-yard rushing mark for the first time since the Notre Dame last season. The Huskies out-gained the Tigers on the ground, 307-18. Connecticut’s offense was not one-dimensional as redshirt senior quarterback Zach Frazer had a solid outing as well. He completed six of nine passes, for 104 yards and two touchdowns. The scoring passes went to junior wide receiver Michael Smith, who snagged his first career touchdown midway through the first quarter, and to redshirt junior Kashif Moore, who scored on a 24-yard pass late in the first period. The Huskies led 24-0 at the end of the first 15 minutes and took a 45-0 lead into the locker room at intermission. The Connecticut defense was so dominant that the Tigers did not register a first down until the 6:54 mark of the second quarter. Texas Southern was only able to generate eight first downs on the contest, and was out-gained 444-169 in the contest. Redshirt senior linebacker Lawrence Wilson led the Huskies with seven tackles, while redshirt sophomore linebacker Sio Moore had a huge game, registering six tackles, a sack and a total of two tackles for loss. The Husky defense also forced four turnovers with interceptions by senior linebacker Greg Lloyd, freshman cornerback Taylor Mack and redshirt sophomore linebacker Jory Johnson. Junior defensive back Kijuan Dabney recovered a fumble. Edsall was able to substitute freely and the scoring was capped by an 11-yard touchdown run by redshirt junior tailback Meme Wylie, the first score of his career.

Attendance – 18,702 PHILADELPHIA - Junior tailback Jordan Todman rushed for a careerhigh 195 yards and one touchdown and junior kicker David Teggart hit on three field goals as the University of Connecticut football team had a 30-16 loss against Temple. The game was played before a crowd of 18,702 at Lincoln Financial Field. Todman’s previous career high was 162 yards against Cincinnati last year. Teggart’s third quarter field goal of 47 yards tied his career high. The Huskies led 16-14 midway through the fourth quarter, but Temple’s Adrian Robinson had a 43-yard fumble return off a five-yard Todman rush to make it 20-16 Owls with 8:28 to play. Temple was able to score again late in the fourth quarter, taking a 27-16 lead with 5:54 left to play. Temple’s Delano Green had a 47-yard punt return and Bernard Pierce scored on a two-yard rush. Brandon McManus converted a 32-yard field goal with 26 seconds remaining in the game to give the Owl’s the 30-16 lead and eventual final score. UConn trailed 7-6 at halftime but Todman opened the third quarter scoring with a career-high 63-yard TD run to give the Huskies at 13-7 lead a minute into the second half. The Owls took a 14-13 lead with 5:14 left in the third quarter on a oneyard rush by Pierce. That capped a nine play-60 yard drive as Pierce rushed nine times on the possession. The Huskies regained the lead on the next possession as Teggart connected on the career-long 47-yarder. That drive included a 16-yard pass from junior quarterback Zach Frazer to junior Mike Smith. The Huskies outgained Temple on total offense in the first half by a 245135 count but UConn was also called for five penalties for 38 yards. UConn scored first on its opening drive as junior kicker Teggart connected on a 36-yard field goal for the 3-0 lead. The 12 play-71 yard drive started on the Husky 10 and UConn moved the ball to a first and 10 on the Temple 22. The drive stalled from there as UConn picked up only three more yards to set up Teggart’s score. Temple scored the only touchdown of the first half as it covered 69 yards on three plays as quarterback Chester Stewart scored on a 27-yard TD run. Stewart also had a 33-yard pass to Joe Jones to open the drive. Connecticut rounded out the first half scoring on a 26-yard field goal by Teggart to make it 7-6 Owls at the half. The drive was 80 yards on 10 plays as Frazer had two completions for 33 yards and Todman had 39 yards on three carries in the drive.

EAST HARTFORD, CONN. – Offensive reserves redshirt junior quarterback Cody Endres and redshirt junior running back Robbie Frey came off the bench to provide sparks and the Connecticut defense returned two interceptions for touchdowns as the Huskies defeated Buffalo, 45-21, Saturday afternoon before a crowd of 36,738 at Rentschler Field. Endres, who had missed the first three games of the season due to a suspension, entered the contest at the end of the first half and connected with junior wide receiver Michael Smith on a 27-yard reception on his first pass which set up a 37-yard field goal by redshirt junior kicker Dave Teggart that broke a 14-14 halftime tie. The Huskies would never look back. Endres finished with seven completions in 11 attempts for 139 yards and two touchdowns. His first score was on the Huskies’ next possession when he hit Smith for a 56-yard scoring strike. He also connected with redshirt sophomore tight end Ryan Griffin on a six-yard score on the first play of the fourth quarter. Frey, who saw increased playing time due to the injury suffered by starter Jordan Todman ran for a career-high 112 yards on 13 carries and one touchdown. Junior tailback D.J. Shoemate earned his first start at Connecticut and responded with 60 yards on 16 carries and his first Husky touchdown late in the first quarter. The Connecticut defense had several standouts on a squad that allowed just 134 yards of total offense after intermission. Redshirt sophomore linebacker Sio Moore made his first career start and had a career-best 16 tackles and his first interception. Redshirt sophomore safety Jerome Junior returned a Jerry Davis pass 27 yards for the first score of the game just 1:26 into the contest. He added a second interception later in the game. The scoring was capped when redshirt sophomore cornerback Blidi Wreh-Wilson took a Davis pass back 46 yards with 4:01 to play. Smith finished with a career-high 130 yards receiving, while redshirt senior linebacker Lawrence Wilson had 14 tackles. Davis did throw for 227 yards and three touchdowns (all to Ed Young) but he threw three of the Bulls four interceptions. He connected with Young twice in the second quarter, the second of which knotted the score at 14 just 36 seconds before the half.

EAST HARTFORD, CONN. – Junior tailback Jordan Todman rushed for 190 yards and two touchdowns and Connecticut scored the game’s last 26 points as the Huskies rallied past Vanderbilt, 40-21, before a sellout crowd of 40,000 at Rentschler Field. Redshirt junior quarterback Cody Endres completed 21-of-30 passes for 179 yards and two touchdowns in his first start of the season. Todman, who narrowly missed his career mark in rushing (192 this season against Temple), scored his two touchdowns in the first half to give the Huskies a 14-0 lead four minutes into the second quarter. The first touchdown was a quick conversion after a Vanderbilt turnover on the game’s first play from scrimmage. Jonathan Krause caught a pass from Larry Smith and the ball was jarred loose by sophomore defensive back Mike Lang and recovered by redshirt sophomore cornerback Blidi Wreh-Wilson and returned 24 yards to the Vanderbilt 12. Three plays later Todman scored from the one. After a series of punts by both teams, Connecticut added to its lead on an 11-yard scoring ramble by Todman early in the second quarter. The Huskies seemed to have the contest well in hand, but the Commodores responded with three touchdowns in a span of 3:38 during the second quarter. Smith threw touchdown passes to Brandon Barden and Udom Umoh and Krause scored on a 44-yard scamper on an end-around to put the Commodores ahead 21-14, with 5:26 to play before halftime. The Huskies responded with a nine-play, 73-yard drive that was capped by a six-yard touchdown pass to redshirt junior wide receiver Kashif Moore with 1:04 to play in the first half. Connecticut continued that momentum by taking the second half kickoff (after a 54-yard kickoff return by Nick Williams and marching 41 yards in six plays with the score coming on a four-yard pass to redshirt sophomore tight end Corey Manning, his first career catch at Connecticut. The Huskies sandwiched a 25-yard field goal by Dave Teggart and a safety when Vanderbilt snapped the ball through the end zone around a 44-yard interception return by Wreh-Wilson. It was the third interception return for a score by the Huskies in the past two weeks. Endres’ favorite target in the contest was sophomore wide receiver Dwayne Difton who caught a career-best six passes for 58 yards. Junior wideout Michael Smith caught four balls for 63 yards. Redshirt senior linebacker Lawrence Wilson led the Huskies with nine tackles, while sophomore defensive end Jesse Joseph had six tackles, three for loss including two sacks.

PISCATAWAY, N.J. – University of Connecticut junior running back Jordan Todman rushed for 123 yards while junior quarterback Cody Endres passed for 153 as the Huskies fell at Rutgers by a 27-24 score before a crowd of 48,431 at Rutgers Stadium. Endres was 17 of 34 in the air for one touchdown while redshirt junior wide receiver Kashif Moore led UConn with five receptions for 64 yards and a TD. Rutgers was paced by quarterback Chas Dodd, who was 18 of 29 in the air for 322 yards. After a scoreless third quarter, Dodd found Mark Harrison with a 52 yard touchdown pass to tie the game at 24-24 with just under four minutes left in the fourth quarter. Rutgers was able to take a 27-24 lead with 13 seconds remaining, when Dodd found Jeremy Deering with a 45 yard gain to set up a 34 yard field goal for San San Te, which he would convert for the 27-24 Scarlet Knight victory. The first half saw the beginning statistically dominated by Rutgers in the first quarter while Connecticut dominated the second quarter. Rutgers outgained the Huskies 109-29 in total offense in the opening period while UConn then came back and outgained Rutgers 169-21. The Scarlet Knights did open the second quarter scoring with a 28-yard field goal by Te, which closed out a seven play-60 yard drive. The Huskies then scored the final 17 points of the second half to take a 24-17 halftime lead. Junior tailback Jordan Todman scored on a 66-yard rush on the first play from scrimmage with 6:36 left to play. The rush was the longest of Todman’s career and the longest by a Husky this year. After a three and out by Rutgers, freshman Taylor Mack had a 33-yard punt return to put the ball at the Scarlet Knight 28. Two plays later, Endres hooked up with Moore for a 22-yard TD to give UConn its first lead of the game at 21-17. Junior kicker Dave Teggart kicked a 17-yard field as time expired at halftime that completed a 10 play-53 yard drive that also featured six called timeouts. Rutgers opened the scoring on a 46-yard pass play from Chas Dodd to Jeremy Deering on a third-and-14 play. Earlier in that drive, Connecticut declined a holding call that made its third-and-nine from the UConn 41 and another Rutgers offside penalty was accepted to make it third-and-14 to set up the scoring play. Sophomore Nick Williams tied the game immediately with a 100-yard kickoff return. The 100-yard KO return was the fourth in school history with the last one coming against Rutgers last year by junior tailback Robbie Frey at Rentschler Field. Rutgers rounded out the first quarter scoring with a touchdown on the drive right after Williams’ return. Joe Lefeged returned the ball 75-yards on the kickoff to the UConn 14 and three plays later Mohamed Sanu scored on a two-yard rush.

Attendance – 48,591 LOUISVILLE, Ky. – The University of Louisville posted a 26-0 victory over the University of Connecticut on Saturday afternoon before a crowd of 48,591 at Papa John’s Cardinal Stadium. UConn drops to 3-4 with the loss and 0-2 in the BIG EAST while Louisville is 4-3 and 1-1 in the BIG EAST. The game marked the first time UConn had been shutout since a 24-0 loss at Pittsburgh on Nov. 12, 2005. Louisville was led by quarterback Adam Froman who was 18 of 30 in the air for 195 yards and one TD. Bilal Powell was tops in rushing with 27 carries for 105 yards. UConn redshirt freshman quarterback Mike Box made his first career start and was four of 12 in the air for 35 yards. Junior tailback Jordan Todman had 19 carries for 80 yards. Louisville led 13-0 at halftime and then scored 13 unanswered points in the second half, including 10 in the third quarter to put the game away. Doug Beaumont scored on a 74-yard punt return for a TD with 1:10 into the second half for a 20-0 lead while Chris Philpott kicked his third field goal of the game on a 26-yarder with 6:14 left in the quarter to make it 23-0 and converted his fourth field goal of the game with 12:50 left in the fourth quarter for the 26-0 victory. In the first half, a series of Husky mistakes led to several Cardinal scores. With 2:29 left in the first quarter and a scoreless game, UConn missed a 29-yard field goal that wasted a 12 play-68 yard drive. The UConn defense then stopped the Cardinals on the next series, but the Huskies fumbled the punt return to give Louisville the ball back at the UConn 18 with four seconds to go in the first quarter. Louisville broke the scoreless tie as Adam Froman completed a two-yard pass to Cameron Graham for the score and a 7-0 UL lead. On UConn’s next possession, Box threw an interception that gave Louisville the ball at their own 43. The Cardinals hurt themselves with a penalty that made it second and 21 from the UConn 39 and Chris Philpott connected on a 39-yard field goal to make it 10-0. Following a UConn three-and-out, Louisville then marched 45 yards and 11 plays, but the Husky defense did hold but Philpott connected on a 42-yarder for the 13-0 halftime lead.

EAST HARTFORD, Conn. – Jordan Todman recorded a career-high tying 33 rushes for 113 yards as the University of Connecticut defeated West Virginia, 16-13 in its first overtime game of the season. The win over the Mountaineers marks the first for the Huskies over the past seven seasons. Zach Frazer was 18 of 29 in the air for 166 yards, while Michael Smith had six receptions for 56 yards. Sio Moore (Apex, N.C.) had a game-high 17 tackles for the Huskies, including three for a loss. West Virginia’s Geno Smith was 22 of 34 for 160 yards in the air and had 64 rushing yards, while Noel Devine added 67 rushing yards to the Mountaineer offense. Lawrence Wilson tallied his second fumble recovery of the day when West Virginia had the ball on the one-yard line during the first overtime possession and Dave Teggart converted a 27-yard field goal on UConn’s ensuing possession, his third of the game, for the 16-13 Husky overtime victory. With 10:48 left in regulation, Teggart converted a 26-yard field goal, to bring the score to 13-13 after Frazer put him in field goal range with a 40-yard pass to Kashif Moore. The field goal would mark the last time either team would score during regulation, forcing UConn into its first overtime game of the season and West Virginia into its second overtime game of the year. Todman tied the score at 10-10 with 6:17 left in the third quarter when he scored on a 24-yard run. UConn started the series on its own 36-yard line and moved the ball with 14 plays including, eight Todman rushes. On West Virginia’s next possession, Tyler Bitancurt broke the tie, converting a 42-yard field goal to put the Mountaineers up 13-10 with 1:46 left in the third quarter. West Virginia struck first in the opening half, scoring all of its 10 first half points during the first quarter. After UConn was forced to punt following their second series of the game, the Mountaineers’ took over possession at their own 47-yard line and Brad Starks opened their series with a 53-yard touchdown run to put WVU up, 7-0, with 10:23 left on the clock. UConn managed to gain just two yards in its next possession, giving West Virginia the ball on its own 43-yard line. The Mountaineer offense was able to move the ball down the field, putting Bitancurt within field goal range, and Bitancourt’s 36-yard attempt was good, giving WVU a 10-0 advantage. UConn’s first scoring chance of the game came when Moore forced a Devine fumble on WVU’s first possession of the second quarter. The fumble gave UConn the ball on the West Virginia 44-yard line and Frazer opened the series with an 11-yard rush, giving the Huskies their first, first down of the game. After eight plays, UConn was not able to convert and UConn was forced to punt with 7:01 left on the clock. The Huskies finally got on the board with one second left in the first half when the UConn offense was able to move the ball down the field with three consecutive first downs. Teggart converted a 39-yard field goal for the Huskies, putting the score at 10-3 going into halftime.

EAST HARTFORD, CONN. – Junior tailback Jordan Todman rushed for a career-high 222 yards and Connecticut converted a dramatic fourthand-one from their own territory with 2:33 to play as the Huskies rallied to defeat Pittsburgh, 30-28. Connecticut was nursing a 30-28 lead when the Huskies faced a fourthand-one at their own 19. Connecticut head coach Randy Edsall elected to go for it instead of punting the ball back to the Panthers, and Todman rewarded his head coach by barreling ahead for four yards. The Huskies then safely ran out the clock to earn the victory. Todman was immense throughout the game in setting career marks with his 37 attempts and 222 yards. His exploits pushed his career rushing total to 2,660, as he passed both Ed Long and Wilbur Gilliard as he moved into third place all-time at Connecticut. For the second consecutive game, the Huskies found themselves in an early hole. On the first play from scrimmage, a flea-flicker pass by redshirt senior quarterback Zach Frazer was intercepted by Jarred Holley. Five plays later, Dion Lewis scrambled in from the four, and just two minutes into the contest, the Huskies trailed 7-0. Connecticut quickly responded, as they marched 83 yards in 11 plays scoring when Frazer connected with redshirt junior Kashif Moore on a 36-yard scoring strike. On Pittsburgh’s next possession, they marched deep into Husky territory before redshirt junior safety Jerome Junior picked off Panther quarterback Tino Sunseri at the Connecticut nine and returned it seventeen yards. The ensuing drive stalled and redshirt junior kicker Dave Teggart drilled the first of his three field goals, this one from 46 yards out. Teggart connected again early in the third quarter from 39 yards out to put the Huskies ahead 13-7, but Pittsburgh retook the lead on a one-yard run by Lewis. After a Connecticut punt, the Panthers scored again on a five-yard run by Ray Graham. On the ensuing kickoff, sophomore Nick Williams ran it all the way back 95 yards for a score, his second kickoff return for a score this year. His score cut the Panther lead to 21-20. Teggart put the Huskies back ahead with a 25-yard field goal, and when Pittsburgh fumbled the ensuing kickoff on a jarring hit by senior fullback Anthony Sherman, redshirt junior tailback Robbie Frey recovered and the Huskies were back in business. Two plays later, Frazer connected with redshirt junior wide receiver Isiah Moore from 14 yards out for the score. Frazer finished with nine completions in 20 attempts, for 100 yards and the two touchdowns and one interception. Kashif Moore had two receptions for 46 yards and his score. The Connecticut defense was paced by redshirt senior linebacker Lawrence Wilson, who had 11 tackles and one sack.

SYRACUSE, N.Y. – The University of Connecticut football team gained bowl eligibility for the fourth consecutive year on Saturday night as it posted a 23-6 win over Syracuse before a crowd of 41,465 at the Carrier Dome. UConn junior running back Jordan Todman led the Huskies in rushing with 130 yards on 27 carries and 2 TDs. Senior quarterback Zach Frazer was an efficient 13 of 21 for 98 yards on the night. Junior kicker Dave Teggart had three field goals on four attempts. UConn led 10-3 at halftime and Syracuse made it 10-6 on a 42-yard field goal by Ross Krautman with 8:21 left to play in the third. Junior defensive lineman Kendall Reyes made the key defensive play of the game when he sacked SU quarterback Ryan Nassib for a loss of seven yards and a fumble which the Huskies recovered at the SU four-yard line. After an Orange penalty, Todman scored his second TD of the game on a two-yard run to make it 17-6 Huskies. Teggart then connected on a 35-yard field goal with 14:06 left to play in the fourth for the 20-6 Husky lead. Teggart continued UConn’s scoring during the final quarter when he converted a 21-yard field goal with three minutes left in the game to extend the Husky lead to 23-6. UConn scored the only touchdown of the first half on its initial possession of the game. The Huskies started the drive at their own 20 and moved the ball 80 yards on 11 plays for the score. Todman completed the drive with a one-yard TD run with 5:16 left to play and had a total of seven rushes on the drive. Syracuse came back on its next possession to kick a 42-yard field goal by Ross Krautuman for its only points of the first half. After moving the ball from its 20 to the UConn 32, the Huskies only gave up seven more yards to force the Orange field goal. UConn scored the only points of the second quarter when Teggart connected on a 35-yard field goal in the final minute of the half. The Huskies gained possession on that drive by an interception by Reyes that put the ball at the SU 38.

EAST HARTFORD, Conn. – Junior tailback Jordan Todman ran for 175 yards and three touchdowns as the University of Connecticut recorded a 38-17 BIG EAST Conference football victory over Cincinnati before a sellout crowd of 40,000 at Rentschler Field on Senior Day. Todman, whose three rushing touchdowns give him 31 in his career, (good for a tie for third all-time at Storrs with Terry Caulley) scored twice in the fourth quarter to put the game away. Cincinnati had drawn within seven on a three-yard run by Zach Collaros with 8:41 to play. After redshirt junior tailback Robbie Frey returned the ensuing kickoff 42 yards to set the Huskies up at the Bearcat 36, Todman bulled over from the one to cap a five-play drive to put the Huskies back up by two scores, 31-17. Redshirt sophomore cornerback Blidi Wreh-Wilson intercepted a Collaros pass and returned it 53 yards to set the Huskies up again deep in Cincinnati territory. Three plays later Todman scooted in from the nine and the victory was sealed. Todman now has surpassed the 100-yard rushing mark 14 times in his career, nine times this season and in 11 of his last 12 games. The Huskies drew first blood in the contest on their second possession when redshirt senior quarterback Zach Frazer connected with senior fullback Anthony Sherman on a 16-yard scoring toss. It was Sherman’s first career touchdown reception. Frazer was efficient all afternoon, throwing for 121 yards with the one touchdown and one interception. Cincinnati got on the board on a field goal late in the first quarter, and then the Huskies took advantage of the game’s first turnover. Redshirt senior linebacker Lawrence Wilson forced a fumble by Bearcat wideout Anthony McClung that was recovered by redshirt senior defensive tackle Alex Polito at the Bearcat 48. Nine plays later, Frey ran it in from the six to put the Huskies up 14-3. Cincinnati quickly answered on a 15-yard pass from Collaros to Armon Binns, but the Huskies responded with a 12-play, 50-yard drive that climaxed in a 24-yard field goal by redshirt junior placekicker Dave Teggart. The field goal was Teggart’s 46th at Connecticut, and moved him into first place all-time at Storrs. The end of the first half saw a crucial turnaround that helped the Huskies’ cause. The Bearcats had driven to the Connecticut 9 and were threatening to tie the score when redshirt junior defensive tackle Kendall Reyes knocked down a Collaros pass, snagged the ball in midair and rambled 84 yards for what appeared to be a touchdown. However, Wilson was called for blocking in the back at the Cincinnati 5. Five plays later Todman scored from the one with four seconds to play before intermission and the Huskies took a 24-10 lead into the locker room. Redshirt sophomore cornerback Dwayne Gratz led the Huskies with nine tackles.

Championship Series for the first time in school history. UConn defeated USF by a score of 19-16 before a crowd 41,109 at Raymond James Stadium in the regular season finale for both teams. UConn shares the 2010 BIG EAST Championship with West Virginia and Pittsburgh and advances to the BCS with wins over both the Panthers and Mountaineers. Connecticut advances to the BCS after playing FBS football since just the 2002 season. The Huskies left Division I-AA following the 1999 season and spent two seasons as a transitional team. UConn began BIG EAST play in 2004. Dave Teggart converted a career-long 52-yard field goal with 17 seconds left in the game for the winning score. That was after USF kicker Maikon Bonani hit on a field goal that tied the game at 16-16 with 1:16 left. The field goal was the second 50+ yard field goal for Teggart on the night, as he recorded a 50-yard field goal earlier in the fourth quarter. UConn junior tailback Jordan Todman had another outstanding game as he rushed the ball 33 times for 93 yards. Husky senior quarterback Zach Frazer was an efficient 13 of 29 in the air for 112 yards. USF was led by freshman quarterback Bobby Eveld, who was making his first career start. He was 22 of 41 in the air. Moise Plancher led the Bulls in rushing with 59 yards on 15 carries. With UConn leading 16-6 and in possession of the ball with nine minutes to play the Huskies fumbled the ball to give USF the ball at the UConn 30-yard line. USF struck quickly on a 28-yard TD pass from Evald to Dontavian Bogan to cut the lead to 16-13 Huskies. UConn led 10-3 at the half and Teggart scored the first points of the second half on a 22-yard field goal that made it 13-3 Huskies with 7:30 to play in the third quarter. USF cut the lead to 13-6 with 2:49 to go in the third on a field goal by Bonani that capped an 11 play-56 yard drive. Teggart put UConn up 16-6 with a then career-long 50-yard field goal with 13:37 left to play in the game. The second quarter had a wild momentum-filled ending as Frazer threw an interception with 1:22 left in the half that gave USF the ball at their own 49. On the very next play, USF’s Eveld threw his second interception of the day which was returned by senior linebacker Lawrence Wilson 55 yards for a touchdown and a 10-3 UConn halftime lead. The interception was the fifth of Wilson’s career - three of which have been returned for touchdowns. The two teams traded field goals for the only scoring of the first quarter as Bonani kicked a 42-yard field goal to end the Bulls’ first possession of the game. UConn came right back and tied the game as Teggart connected on a 40-yard FG that wrapped up a 10 play-37 yard drive.

GLENDALE, Ariz. – The University of Connecticut played in its first-ever Bowl Championship Game and dropped a 48-20 decision to seventh-ranked Oklahoma in the 2011 Tostitos Fiesta Bowl before a crowd of 67,232 at the University of Phoenix Stadium. Oklahoma sophomore quarterback Landry Jones was 34 of 49 in the air for 429 yards while senior DeMarco Murray rushed 25 times for 93 yards. UConn junior tailback Jordan Todman carried the ball 32 times for 121 yards and Husky senior quarterback Zach Frazer was 19 of 39 in the air for 223 yards. Oklahoma scored touchdowns on both of its first quarter possessions to jump out to a 14-0 lead. After UConn began the game with a three-and-out, the Sooners marched nine plays on 70 yards for an eight-yard TD pass from Jones to James Hanna. The scoring play came on the only third down play the Sooners had on the drive. UConn moved 55 yards on its next possession, but failed on a fourthand-one play that gave the Sooners the ball at their own 19. The Sooners then moved the ball on nine plays and 81 yards and scored on a three-yard rush by Murray. The Huskies broke into the scoring column when redshirt sophomore Dwayne Gratz picked off a Jones pass and returned it 46 yards for a TD. The interception return for a TD was the fifth of the year for the Huskies - tying a school record from 2007. Oklahoma came right back and moved the ball from its own 20 to the Husky 20, but UConn’s defense held strong and limited OU to a 41-yard field goal to make it 17-7 with 9:57 to go. The teams then traded field goals the rest of the first half as Dave Teggart hit a 37-yard with 26 seconds left in the first half to make it 20-10 at the break. The Sooners outgained the Huskies 279-109 in total offense during the first half and had a17-7 first down advantage. The Sooners exploded for two quick TDs to start the second half as they took their second possession of the half a quick four plays in 80 yards as Jones hit Cameron Kenney on a 59-yard touchdown pass. Oklahoma then made it 34-10 as Frazer threw an interception picked off by Jamell Fleming who returned it 55-yards for the TD. UConn junior Robbie Frey kept the pesky Huskies going as he returned the ensuing kickoff 95 yards for a score to cut the lead to 34-17. Teggart hit on a 38-yard field goal with 5:04 left in the third to make it 34-20. Ryan Broyles gave the Sooners a 41-20 lead when he had a five-yard reception for an Oklahoma touchdown with 7:49 left in the game. Broyles’ score was followed up at the 2:40 mark when Tony Jefferson had a 22-yard interception return for another Sooner touchdown, putting the final score at 48-20.

Historical T i m e l i n e

1897

1919

1896 The history of intercollegiate football at the University of Connecticut begins with the formation of the Athletic League of New England State Colleges. Connecticut, Massachusetts and Rhode Island join for the purpose of scheduling regular meetings in football and baseball. Connecticut is known as Storrs Agricultural College. 1897 A year of firsts, all in one game; first game against Rhode Island, first game against a collegiate opponent and first game in the newly formed conference. S.A.C. wins 22-8. 1899 Storrs Agricultural College changes its name to Connecticut Agricultural College. 1901 The 1901 squad finished 8-2 and registered six shutouts on the season, including five straight in one stretch. Rhode Island was the only intercollegiate opponent on the schedule and was one of the shutout victims, falling to the “Aggies” of Connecticut Agricultural College by a count of 27-0. 1919 Gardner Dow, a native of New Haven, dies on September 20, 1919, after making a spectacular flying tackle in a game at New Hampshire. Dow suffered a concussion of the brain. The athletic fields behind Hawley Armory were named after him and served as the site of home games for football, baseball, soccer, lacrosse and track meets.

1934

1923 Connecticut enters the New England Conference, which includes all New England state schools except for the University of Vermont. 1924 This squad is down in the annals as one of the school’s finest, finishing 6-0-2 and winning the New England Conference Championship. The Aggies are said by the New York Times to be among the best teams in the country and the team defense finishes first in the nation. The team gave up only 13 points all season and only three in the final seven games. Senior team captain Martin “Red” Martin “Red” O’Neill – O’Neill is the school’s first All-America UConn’s first All-America candidate, leading the 1923 and 1924 teams. Candidate As legend has it, his career started in 1922 during a loss to Springfield College. A Connecticut Agricultural College (now UConn) player was injured and the coaches could find no one to replace him among the reserves. Someone spotted O’Neill watching the game from the stands and called to him to join in the game. He threw on a uniform and stepped into the line-up, where he would remain for three seasons. 1934 First season for head coach J.O. Christian. The school receives big press coverage at the end of the 1-7 campaign for stealing the Rhody Ram mascot before the game with Rhode Island (pictured above). 1935 First football team to come in early for preseason camp at the expense of the school.

Gardner Dow

1939 First season as the University of Connecticut; team defeats Coast Guard, 14-0, in the first game ever played under flood lights at Gardner Dow Field.

1945 1942, 1944-1945 During the war years, head coach J.O. Christian and the Huskies put together a three-year stretch like none other in school history. In that three-season span (with no football being played in 1943), Connecticut won 20 of 24 contests. The Huskies registered separate winning streaks of six, eight and five games and shutout their opponents in 13 of the 20 wins. 1945 UConn tailback Walt Trojanowski shares the NCAA scoring title with Doc Blanchard of Army. Both men scored 132 points on the season. 1947 UConn becomes a charter member of the Yankee Conference. 1953 Memorial Stadium opens with a 26-6 Connecticut win over St. Lawrence on October 10, 1953. The 1953 season also marked the first appearance at a football game for the marching band. 1956-1960 UConn captures five straight Yankee Conference Championships, a league-record for consecutive titles won or shared. During that span, the Huskies compile a 17-1-2 record in Yankee Conference play and go 18 league contests before their lone loss in the stretch, to New Hampshire. 1965 UConn beats Yale for the first time ever (pictured on page 138), on September 25, 1965, 13-6. UConn becomes the first school from within the state of Connecticut to ever beat Yale. 1969 UConn joins the NCAA in celebrating the 100th anniversary of college football by selecting an 11-member All-Time UConn team. More than 130 UConn football players receive votes in the balloting of fans, alumni and former players.

1958

1965

1967-73 Connecticut captures four Yankee Conference championships in a seven-season span, going 27-6-3 in league play during that stretch. 1983 Linebackers John Dorsey and Vernon Hargreaves become the first teammates in UConn football history to earn All-America honors in the same season. The duo combined for more than 300 tackles and helped UConn to a share of the Yankee Conference Championship. 1989 UConn plays the first night game in the history of Memorial Stadium on September 23, 1989, and defeats New Hampshire, 20-10. 1990 Matt DeGennaro finishes his Husky career as the leading passer in the history of the Yankee Conference, totaling 9,288 yards and 73 touchdowns. 1995 UConn matches the most successful start in school history by winning its first six games of the year. Senior captain Wilbur Gilliard becomes the all-time leading rusher in school history. Gilliard finishes his career with 2,624 rushing yards. The 1995 team finishes 8-3 and ties the school record for wins in a season. The squad finished the year ranked No. 23 in the national I-AA top 25. 1998 UConn football celebrates its 100th season with a school-record 10 wins and advances to the NCAA I-AA football playoffs for the first time. UConn defeats Hampton, 42-34, in its first playoff game and advances to the NCAA Quarterfinals. The Huskies finish the season ranked No. 7 in the national I-AA rankings. Senior quarterback Shane Stafford is the only active player named to the UConn Football 100th Anniversary AllTime Team and finishes his career in the top two of every quarterbacking category in school history. 1999 Randy Edsall becomes UConn’s 27th head coach and leads the Huskies through their final season in Division I-AA. UConn finishes 4-7, but wins its first ever game against a Division I-A opponent, beating Buffalo 23-0 on September 16.

2010

2000 UConn begins play as a Division I-A Independent. The team earns two wins over Division I-A opponents and sets a single-season record for average home attendance (14,166), playing before the three largest crowds in school history (all advance sellouts) in their first three home games.

2007 UConn captured its first-ever BIG EAST Championship and appeared in the Meineke Car Care Bowl, selling out its allotment of 12,500 tickets for the game in Charlotte, N.C. During the season, UConn earned its first-ever national rankings, peaking at No. 16 in the AP Poll and No. 13 in the BCS.

2001 UConn earned its first-ever victory over a BIG EAST opponent as Marc Hickok nailed a career-long 47-yard field goal with 3:04 remaining in the game to lift the Huskies to a 20-19 win over Rutgers.

2008 UConn advanced to a bowl in consecutive seasons for the first time in school history and defeated Buffalo in the 2009 International Bowl in Toronto. Running back Donald Brown led the country in rushing with 2,083 yards and became UConn’s first All-American since the program moved to the FBS. Brown was also named the BIG EAST Offensive Player of the Year – UConn’s first-ever BIG EAST individual award winner. Following the season, the Huskies had four players taken in the first two rounds of the NFL Draft.

2002 UConn has a breakthrough season, posting a 6-6 record, including a win at Big 12 member Iowa State, which would advance to a bowl game. For the first time, the NCAA included UConn in the Division I-A statistics and the Huskies placed in the national top five in passing defense and ranked 19th in total defense. Terry Caulley was the nation’s leading freshman rusher with 1,247 yards on the year. The Huskies closed a 50-year run at Memorial Stadium with a 63-21 win over Kent State in which Caulley tied an NCAA record by scoring four touchdowns in one quarter. 2003 UConn made its debut at Rentschler Field, playing to 93% capacity (37,059). The large home crowds helped push the Huskies to a 9-3 record, including a 34-10 win over Big Ten member Indiana on opening day. 2004 UConn made its debut as a member of the BIG EAST Conference in style as the Huskies finished one game back of the leaders and earned a berth in the Motor City Bowl. The Huskies led the conference in both total offense and total defense while Cornell Brockington led the BIG EAST with 1,218 rushing yards. The season ended with a win over Toledo in the Motor City Bowl as quarterback Dan Orlovsky was named MVP.

2009 Connecticut advances to a bowl game for the third-straight season and posts a 20-7 win over South Carolina. The Huskies endured an emotional season with the death of teammate Jasper Howard on Oct. 19, but came back to win its final four games, including a 33-30 double overtime win at Notre Dame. 2010 UConn appears in a Bowl Championship series game for the first time as it plays Oklahoma in the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl.

an Orlovsky earned Most Valuable Player honors after going 20 of 41 in the air for 239 yards and two touchdowns as UConn defeated MAC Champion Toledo by a 39-10 score in the 2004 Motor City Bowl, UConn’s first ever bowl appearance. In addition to O­rlovsky’s honor, Tyler King was named the United Auto Workers Lineman of the Game. The Huskies were led in rushing by Cornell Brockington, who had 15 carries for 72 yards. The leading receiver on the day for UConn was Keron Henry with nine catches for 239 yards. UConn got out of the gates early, and set a Motor City Bowl record, by scoring 17 points in the first quarter while shutting the Rockets out. The Huskies took the opening drive 41 yards on eight plays to set up a 35-yard field goal by Matt Nuzie. Nuzie went on to kick three more field goals, for a total of four, to set a new Motor City Bowl record and tie a UConn singlegame record. The Huskies scored the first touchdown of the contest as Orlovsky, after eluding a blitzing Rocket, hit Jason Williams in the corner of the end zone for a dazzling 32-yard TD pass on a fourth and six play. The final points of the first quarter came as Larry Taylor returned a punt 68 yards for a score. Toledo scored its first points of the game as it grinded out a 13-play, 63-yard drive that ended with a one-yard touchdown run by quarterback Bruce Gradowski. The Huskies scored 13 more points in the second quarter to take a 30-7 lead at the half. Orlovsky threw a seven-yard TD pass to Brian Sparks, whose sliding catch with 7:42 left in the half capped an eight-play, 41-yard drive. That touchdown was set up by a 54-yard kickoff return by Taylor. Nuzie kicked a pair of field goals in the final 1:24 of the half – a 37-yarder and a 25-yarder on the final play of the half. The teams traded a pair of field goals for the only scoring of the third quarter as Jason Robbins hit a 27-yard field goal for Toledo 3:13 into the half while Nuzie hit a 36-yarder with 1:53 left to play in the quarter. The only scoring of the fourth quarter came with 25 seconds remaining as sophomore Matt Lawrence scored a touchdown on an 11-yard run.

ake Forest quarterback Riley Skinner was 29-of-38 in the air for 268 yards and a touchdown to lead the Demon Deacons to a 24-10 victory over UConn in the 2007 Meineke Car Care Bowl before a crowd of 53,126 at Bank of America Stadium. The two halves were mirror images of each other as UConn shutout Wake Forest in the first half and the Demon Deacons held the Huskies scoreless in the second. The contest was the second bowl game in the last four years for UConn – who has been playing as a member of the BIG EAST for only four years. The Huskies defeated Toledo in the 2004 Motor City Bowl. This year, UConn sold its entire allotment of 12,500 tickets for the bowl game in Charlotte – the second BIG EAST school to ever do that. UConn led 10-0 at the half, but Wake Forest scored two third quarter touchdowns to take a 14-10 lead after three quarters.

Wake Forest took the opening possession of the second half and marched for a touchdown on a six-play, 66-yard drive. Josh Adams scored the touchdown on a 38-yard run 2:16 into the half. The Demon Deacons took the lead for good on a 20-yard touchdown pass from Skinner to John Tereshinski on a third-and-14 play. Wake Forest made it 17-10 on a 43-yard field goal 3:07 into the final quarter by Sam Swank. The Demon Deacons sealed the win with a TD run by Micah Andrews in the final minute.

Ironically, Taylor had a 68-yard punt return for a TD in UConn’s only other bowl game – a win over Toledo in the 2004 Motor City Bowl – which came with 2:31 left in the first quarter down the near (UConn) sideline running to the camera’s right. The only other first half points came with 5:00 left in the second quarter as Tony Ciaravino connected on a 29-yard field goal that finished an eight-play, 80-yard drive. That drive was highlighted by a 58-yard run by Brown on the first play of the drive.

n a defensively-minded game, the University of Connecticut football team nearly shutout South Carolina in the Papajohns.com Bowl to earn the school’s first win over a Southeastern Conference opponent. The game was played in front of a crowd of 45,254 at Legion Field, a Papajohns.com Bowl record attendance. UConn finished with the 20-7 victory earning their second-straight and third overall bowl victory. The Huskies shut out South Carolina in the first three quarters of the game and have shut out their bowl opponents in nine of 16 quarters played. With his 126 yards on the day, senior tailback and Fred Sington Most Vaulable Player Andre Dixon reached the 1,000-yard mark for the season becoming the 12th running back in UConn history to reach the mark and joining teammate Jordan Todman, who accomplished the feat earlier in the season. Todman finished the day with 36 yards. This is the first time in UConn history that two running backs have rushed for over 1,000 yards in the same season. They join Nevada and Georgia Tech as NCAA FBS teams that have at least two players that have rushed for over 1,000 yards during the 2009 season. Junior quarterback Zach Frazer was nine of 21 in the air for 106 yards and connected with sophomore Kashif Moore two times for 40 yards and a touchdown. Stephen Garcia led South Carolina by passing for 129 yards on a 16 for 38 effort also rushing for 56 yards on the day. Alshon Jeffery grabbed three passes for 28 yards for the Gamecocks. The Huskies were the first to get on the board after an unbelievable one-handed 37-yard grab by Moore, who tiptoed along the sidelines and extended into the endzone to put the Huskies up with 6:31 remaining in the first quarter.

South Carolina decided to attempt a fourth and short at its own 32-yard line but senior Lindsey Witten stepped up and stopped the rush as the Huskies took over in Gamecock territory. UConn got the ball down to the 16-yard line but settled for a 33-yard field goal by sophomore Dave Teggart to improve their lead to 10-0. Teggart boosted the lead to 13-0 in the second quarter with 8:26 remaining in the game connecting on his second field goal of the game, a 44-yard boot, setting a new Papajohns.com Bowl record. Later in the quarter, South Carolina earned their first first down of the game with 7:37 left in the half. They only managed four first downs in the entire first half for a net of 84 yards. After SC fumbled at their own 35-yard line, Dixon used the opportunity to record his first touchdown of the day, a 10-yard run to boost the Huskies lead to 20 with 13:12 remaining in the fourth quarter. Dixon’s TD capped a 3:53 minute, nine play 35-yard drive. The Gamecocks got on the board with 3:24 remaining in the game capitalizing on a blocked punt and scoring on a two-play 40-yard drive. Alex Molina recovered an onside kick for the Huskies as UConn ran out the clock.

UConn and t h e C F L UConn And The Canadian Football League

T

he University of Connecticut has a long tradition of sending players to the Canadian Football League – both Canadian natives as “non-import” players and natives of the United States. UConn had a total of six players in the CFL last season, including Martin Bedard and Shawn Mayne, who were both members of the Grey Cup champion Montreal Alouettes. It was the second consecutive Gray Cup title for those two as Montreal also won the title in 2009 and they were joined by former Huskies Larry Taylor and Danny Desriveaux. Taylor was a rookie with Montreal in 2008 and had an unbelievable playoff game on Nov. 15 as he returned two punts for touchdowns in the East Division final against Edmonton to lead Montreal to the Grey Cup finals. He was named the 2009 Special Teams Player of the Year in the league. Maurice Llloyd completed his fifth year in the CFL in 2010 as his Edmonton Eskimos met Montreal in the 2010 Grey Cup game. Lloyd also won a Grey Cup title with Saskatchewan in 2007 and was a Western Division 2007 All-Star.

Former UConn tight end Martin Bedard, who graduated in 2008, was one of four former Huskies that were on the 2009 Montreal Alouettes team that won the Grey Cup in November 2009.

Former Husky Jordan Younger was a CFL All-Star in 2007 for Toronto and is a seven-year veteran of the league. O’Neil Wilson was the second wide receiver taken in the 2004 CFL Draft and has played for a number of teams in the league.

James Hargrave, a captain for the 2005 Huskies, played for the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in 2010 – his first year in the CFL.

Brian Herosian was a CFL East Division all-star selection twice and played for Winnipeg from 1975-78.

Terry Caulley has rushed for nearly 1,000 yards in his first two years as a member of the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in 2007 and ’08.

Storrs Cen t e r

BUILDING A VISION

STORRS CENTER O

n Wednesday, June 29, 2011, the Mansfield Downtown Partnership joined with the Town of Mansfield, the University of Connecticut, and Storrs Center master developer LeylandAlliance, LLC and their partner Education Realty Trust (EDR) in welcoming Mansfield residents and friends in celebrating the ceremonial groundbreaking of Storrs Center. Governor Dannel P. Malloy, United States Congressman Joe Courtney, Secretary of State Denise Merrill, State Senator Don Williams, State Representative Gregory Haddad, Mansfield Mayor Elizabeth Paterson, UConn President Susan Herbst, and Mansfield Downtown Partnership Board President Philip Lodewick addressed the crowd of over three hundred who gathered at the intersection of Dog Lane and Storrs Road (Route 195) in Mansfield. Mansfield resident and current UConn student Spencer Hamlin performed the National Anthem to begin the ceremony. Following remarks from the visiting officials, the ceremonial groundbreaking took place near the site of the first building to be constructed as part of the future downtown. Storrs Center, which has been in planning and development for almost ten years, will be a mixed-use, pedestrian-oriented town center located within an easy walking distance of the UConn Storrs campus, Mansfield’s Town Hall and Community Center, and E. O. Smith High School. The new downtown will host a wide variety of shops, restaurants, offices, and cafés, along with new residential options, including studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom units. The new, market-rate residential units will appeal to young professionals, empty nesters, faculty, graduate students, and other residents of the area – anyone who desires a quality lifestyle in an upscale town center with all of the social and cultural advantages found near one of the nation’s top universities. Storrs Center has been planned as an environmentally-sensitive and sustainable downtown that combines residential, commercial, civic, and recreational uses within a walkable area. Of the nearly fifty acre site, only about fifteen acres will be developed (twelve acres of which were previously developed). The remaining acreage will be set aside as a conservation area,

which abuts the Whetten Woods, a preserved area held by Joshua’s Tract Conservation and Historic Trust. An intermodal transportation center, adjacent to the new parking garage, will accommodate buses, shared cars, electric cars, and bicycles. Mansfield residents and visitors will have convenient access to many amenities without needing to make multiple car trips. The first phase of Storrs Center, scheduled to open in the fall of 2012, will be located north of Dog Lane, near Buckley residential hall, and will include 127 apartments and 27,000 square feet of commercial space. The second phase, consisting of 160 apartments and 40,000 square feet of commercial space, will be south of Dog Lane and is scheduled to open in fall of 2013. “It is one of the most exciting public/private initiatives in the state,” Governor Malloy remarked during the groundbreaking ceremony. “This project does all the right things: It maximizes the value of the University of Connecticut, puts people to work, and creates a town center to enhance the quality of life around a great university.” For more information, please visit www.storrscenter.com or contact the Mansfield Downtown Partnership at 860-429-2740 or mdp@ mansfieldct.org. A list of Frequently Asked Questions is available on the Partnership’s website, www.mansfieldct.org/mdp.

SPRINGFIELD

( 47 miles)

The Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame is located less than an hour from Storrs in Springfield, Mass., just minutes from the YMCA where Dr. James Naismith invented the game in 1891. A must-see for any fan of the hardwood, the Hall of Fame reopened in the fall of 2002 in a brand new $45 million home just off of Interstate 91 in Springfield. The pinnacle of any basketball career, the hall’s long list of inductees now includes UConn men’s basketball coach Jim Calhoun, a 2005 inductee, and women’s basketball coach Geno Auriemma, a 2006 inductee. Once you finish your tour of the Hall of Fame, Springfield’s neighboring suburb of Agawam is the home of Six Flags New England, the region’s largest amusement park.

NEW YORK CITY

(142 miles)

The United States’ largest city and “the media capital of the world,” New York City is located approximately two hours from Storrs and offers a wide array of cultural opportunities. From the glitter of Times Square, to the vast expanse of Central Park, to the majestic skyline, New York City is an incomparable destination and one that can be easily reached by the Metro-North train lines that run into southern Connecticut. UConn students also enjoy the city’s active sporting landscape. The BIG EAST Conference men’s basketball tournament, played every March at fabled Madison Square Garden, is one of the country’s premier collegiate conference championship events. The New York metro area also boasts 10 major professional sports franchises, including the NFL’s New York Jets and Giants, Major League Baseball’s New York Mets and Yankees, the NBA’s New York Knicks and New Jersey Nets, the NHL’s New York Islanders, New York Rangers and New Jersey Devils and the WNBA’s New York Liberty.

BOSTON

(86 miles)

The birthplace of the American Revolution, Boston’s historic Freedom Trail is a living history textbook, covering everything from the Battle of Bunker Hill to the midnight ride of Paul Revere. Meanwhile, the city blends its old world charm with a cosmopolitan new world attitude that is evidenced by some of the trendier shops and restaurants that line both historic Faneuil Hall Marketplace and the Back Bay’s Newbury Street. One of the world’s foremost centers of education, Boston is home to over 50 colleges and universities; perhaps the entire world’s most concentrated collection of colleges.

Director of Athletics

JEFFREY HATHAWAY J

effrey A. Hathaway has provided effective leadership for the University of Connecticut Division of Athletics as he enters his ninth year in that position in 2010-11. At the same time, he has also become a leader for college athletics on both the national and conference level. He has played a vital role in the success story of UConn athletics for 20 of the past 22 years as he was the Executive Associate Director of Athletics at the school from 1990-2001. In his only two years away from the Storrs campus, Hathaway enjoyed a successful tenure as the Director of Athletics at Colorado State University from 2001-03. His first eight years as UConn’s Director of Athletics have arguably been the most successful in school history. The 2010-11 academic year was an amazing one for Husky athletes. The men’s basketball team won its third NCAA Division I Championship in its history while the football team played in the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl – its first appearance in the Bowl Championship Series. The Huskies have now appeared in four-straight bowl games. In addition, the women’s basketball team played in the NCAA Final Four for the fourth-consecutive season and set a college basketball record for most consecutive wins with 90. The UConn baseball team made history as it made its first-ever appearance in NCAA Super Regional play. The men’s soccer, women’s soccer and field hockey teams have took part in NCAA tournaments while representatives from men’s and women’s track and field and women’s diving have also taken part in NCAA action. During 2009-10, Hathaway directed UConn to reach an agreement with IMG College, a division of IMG Worldwide. This 10-year athletics multi-media rights partnership is worth more than $80 million in guaranteed payments to the University. In 2007-08, UConn successfully completed the NCAA certification process. The institution was previously certified, once every 10 years as set forth by the NCAA, in 1998. Hathaway provided leadership for a comprehensive, year-long self study of the operations in the Division of Athletics, a site visit by a peer review team, a NCAA certification committee’s review of the

200 UConnHuskies.com

self-study and a report by the peer review team. The Division also reached a new long-term agreement with Connecticut Public Television for women’s basketball. UConn also completed a landmark ten-year, $46 million corporate partnership agreement with Nike, Inc. to exclusively provide footwear, apparel and equipment for Husky athletics. In addition to his leadership role at UConn, Hathaway is serving as the chairman of the prestigious NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Committee in 2011-12 as he represents the BIG EAST Conference. Hathaway is in his fifth and final year on that committee. As a member of the ten-person committee, Hathaway takes part in the selection and administration of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Championship and the administration of the CBS television contract. He is only the fourth individual in the history of the BIG EAST Conference to serve on the committee, joining Dave Gavitt, Jake Crouthamel and Mike Tranghese. Hathaway is a member of the Division I-A Athletic Directors Association Board of Trustees and on the Executive Committee of the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA). Some significantly historic achievements have occurred during Hathaway’s time as Director of Athletics. UConn became the first school to win the NCAA Division I men’s and women’s basketball championships in the same year (2004) and the football team was victorious in its first ever bowl game - the 2004 Motor City Bowl. In 2010-11 UConn became the first school to ever participate in a BCS game and both the men’s and women’s Final Four in the same academic year. Private fundraising for UConn athletics continues to provide exceptional academic and athletic opportunities for student-athletes. UConn secured a gift of $2.5 million from alumnus Mark Shenkman in 2004 for the building of the Mark R. Shenkman Training Center, an intercollegiate and recreational services facility that serves the entire university community. Under Hathaway’s guidance, the Division of Athletics received the University’s Environmental Leadership Award for the construction of The Burton Family Football Complex and the Mark R. Shenkman Training Center. The two buildings are the University’s first projects certified as meet-

At its 13th annual awards ceremony in March of 2008, the Connecticut Real Estate Exchange presented UConn with the “Green Building Award” for these environmentally-friendly facilities. In his role as Director, Hathaway also oversees UConn’s Recreational Services program. Serving the entire University community, approximately 580,000 individual uses were logged last year, reflecting the popularity of the diverse health and fitness offerings to students, faculty and staff. Hathaway leads a head coaching staff that is one of the most experienced in the country. UConn has 12 head coaches that have been in their current position 10 or more years as of the 2010-11 academic year, including women’s basketball coach Geno Auriemma (27th year in 2011-12) and men’s basketball coach Jim Calhoun (26th). UConn has the distinction of being the only school in the nation with two active Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame coaches in Calhoun (Class of 2005 inductee) and Auriemma (Class of 2006 inductee). Hathaway was also a key factor in the opening of Rentschler Field in 2003 – one of the country’s newest and most modern BCS college football facility. During Hathaway’s career, he has always made the student-athlete the top priority. In the spring and fall semesters of the 2009 calendar year, UConn’s student-athletes excelled in the classroom as nearly 50% of the 650 studentathletes achieved a 3.0 “B-or better” semester grade point average. In addition, the Division of Athletics has consistently maintained a 99 percent retention rate among its student-athletes. “My focus is on the student-athlete,” says Hathaway. “That’s the most important part of our program. Our primary mission is the continued academic success of our student-athletes. The challenge is to identify people early in the process and assist them in charting a career path. In addition, we want to provide a quality experience in intercollegiate athletics for our student-athletes.” The University of Connecticut was saluted for its community service efforts by the National Consortium for Academics and Sports (NCAS) three times under Hathaway’s watch for its community service efforts. UConn was also honored by the NCAS in 2006 and ’07 for its efforts to assist former student-athletes in earning their college degree. In the 2006-07 academic year, Hathaway served on the University search committee to hire Vice President/Chief Operating Officer Barry Feldman and Executive Director of the Alumni Association Lisa Lewis. He was a member of the search committee for the University’s new president – Dr. Susan Herbst. Hathaway’s leadership has earned him respect and recognition both on the national and local levels. He was one of four finalists for the “Athletic Director of the Year” in the spring of 2008 at the inaugural Sports Business Awards by Street and Smith’s Sports Business Journal. In the summers of 2007 and ‘10, Hathaway was honored by NACDA as the AstroTurf Athletic Director of the Year for Division I-A in the Northeast region (which includes the New England states and New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio and New Jersey). In 2004, The Sporting News named Hathaway to its “Power 100 List” comprised of the 100 most powerful people in sports. He received the Joseph J. Fontana Distinguished Service Award from the Connecticut High School Coaches Association in the spring of 2005. In the winter of 2006, Hathaway received the General Robert R. Neyland Outstanding Athletic Director Award from the All-American Football Foundation.

During his tenure at both Colorado State and UConn, he was a member of the NCAA Division I Championships/Competition Cabinet, as well as the Postseason Football Licensing Subcommittee, which is responsible for issues involving postseason football competition and the certification of bowl games. On the conference level, Hathaway was the chair of the BIG EAST Athletic Directors Executive Committee through November of 2009. He is also past chairman of the BIG EAST Championship and Competition Committee as well as the league’s Finance Committee. Hathaway has served as a guest presenter at both the NACDA and NACMA (National Association of Collegiate Marketing Administrators) conventions in the past. In addition, he has also served as a lecturer at the IA Institute sponsored by the Division I-A Athletic Directors’ Association, held annually in Dallas. Hathaway originally came to Connecticut in November of 1990 as Senior Associate Athletic Director. In that role, he oversaw the day-to-day operations of the Division of Athletics. He served internally as a program administrator for several sports, including men’s and women’s basketball and men’s and women’s soccer at UConn as the Huskies won four national championships in those sports during his tenure - two in women’s basketball (1995 and 2000) and one each in men’s basketball (1999) and men’s soccer (2000). Hathaway was also the program administrator for football. He played a critical role in the upgrade of the football program to Division I-A status as UConn became the first ever school to transition from the I-AA level to a BCS football conference. During Hathaway’s tenure at Colorado State, he oversaw a 15-sport program - nine women’s teams and six men’s. The Ram football team made a pair of bowl appearances while Hathaway was at CSU. The men’s basketball team won the Mountain West Conference tournament in March of ‘03 and advanced to the NCAA tournament for the first time in 13 years. The women’s basketball team advanced to postseason play twice, including a trip to the second round of the NCAA tournament in 2002 and the semifinals of the 2003 Women’s NIT. Hathaway was an extremely successful fundraiser during his time in Fort Collins. The school drew national attention for a $15.2 million gift from the Bohemian Foundation and president Pat Stryker for football stadium renovations and expansion. Prior to his first stint at UConn, Hathaway served in a number of capacities at his alma mater - the University of Maryland - from 1982-90, including Assistant Athletics Director for Marketing and Promotions, Acting Assistant Athletics Director for Business Affairs, Athletics Business Manager and men’s basketball trainer. Hathaway earned his Bachelor of Science degree in Athletic Administration from the University of Maryland in 1981. He later received a Master’s Degree in General Administration (1991) from the University of Maryland and is currently continuing work on a PhD in Educational Leadership from the University of Connecticut. He attended The Sports Management Institute at the Universities of Notre Dame and Southern California. Hathaway also completed the Management Development Program at Harvard University. Born June 20, 1959, in Cheverly, Md., Hathaway and his wife Paula have two children: Meghan (October 15, 1991) and Michael (June 11, 1995).

Husky Tr a d i t i o n s

“The Husky Walk” A new pregame tradition was started in 2007 at Rentschler Field as UConn fans got a chance to greet the Huskies as they arrive at the stadium. “The Husky Walk” takes place about two-and-a-half hours before each game as the UConn buses pull up to Gate D of the stadium and the players make their way to Gate C.

JONATHAN THE HUSKY MASCOT The official mascot of the University of Connecticut is a Siberian Husky dog named Jonathan. Jonathan XIII made his debut on the Storrs campus in the winter of 2008 and made his Rentschler Field debut at the 2008 Blue-White Spring Football Game. He will be on hand for the ’09 season. The first Husky dog came to UConn in 1934 and the puppy was named for Jonathan Trumbull, the Governor of Connecticut during the Revolutionary War. The pedigree of Jonathan I was traced back to include a great-grandfather who traveled to the North Pole with Admiral Bryd in 1909. Jonathan III was with Admiral Byrd when he undertook “Operation High Jump” to the Antarctic in 1946-47. A costumed mascot has also gained popularity over the past several decades.

Fight Song Sing The UConn football team started a “new” tradition last season when after each game they went to the student section and sang “UConn Husky” with their fellow classmates with the music of the UConn Marching Band.

UNIVERSITY OF CONNECTICUT ALMA MATER “UCONN HUSKY” FIGHT SONG “UConn Husky” is the fight song of the school. It was written in the mid-1930’s by Herb France, who was UConn’s Director of Music until the mid-1950’s. The song is widely known for its playing at different sporting events, but got “out of this world” attention in October 1989 when it was played aboard NASA’s Space Shuttle to wake up the shuttle astronauts. Among those astronauts on the mission was Franklin Chang-Diaz, a 1973 UConn graduate. UConn Husky Symbol of might to the foe. Fight, fight Connecticut, It’s victory, let’s go! Connecticut UConn Husky, Do it again for the white and blue,

So go, go, go, go, Connecticut, Connecticut U. C-O-N-N-E-C-T-I-C-U-T, Connecticut Connecticut Husky, Connecticut Husky, Connecticut C-O-N-N-U. Fight! (Repeat first verse)

Once more, as we gather today To sing our alma mater’s praise And join in the fellowship strong That inspires our college days. We’re backing our teams in the strife Cheering them to victory. We pledge anew To old Connecticut, Our steadfast spirit of loyalty.

When time shall have severed us far And the years their changes bring, The thought of the college we love In our memories will cling. For friendships that ever remain And associations dear We’ll raise a song To old Connecticut And join our voices in our long cheer

Connecticut, Connecticut Thy sons and daughters true Unite to honor thy name Our fairest white and blue.

Connecticut, Connecticut Thy sons and daughters true Unite to honor thy name Our fairest white and blue.

VICTORY BELL An enduring tradition of UConn football is the ringing of the Victory Bell after each UConn score. The bell was moved from the previous home of UConn football, Memorial Stadium, to its new home – Rentschler Field. After each score, the bell is rung once for each point UConn has scored in the game.

Rentschler F i e l d

The Home of Husky Football

RENTSCHLER FIELD

S

ome college football teams play in stadiums that put fans so close to the action that the spectators feel like they can reach out and touch the players. These stadiums are intimate and are part of what has made college football special. Other stadiums are ultra-modern edifices that feature the latest in facilities such as luxurious suites and spacious locker rooms. The home of University of Connecticut football — Rentschler Field — happens to be both. The stadium is one of the newest and most modern BCS college football stadium in the country. Rentschler Field, located in East Hartford, opened on Aug. 30, 2003, as the Huskies defeated Big Ten Conference member Indiana, 34-10. UConn has now played 51 games in the facility over the past eight seasons and has posted an impressive 39-12 record at Rentschler Field – including perfect records in 2010 (6-0) and a 7-0 mark in 2007 to set a UConn single-season record for home wins. The Huskies have sold out 30 of their 51 Rentschler Field games, including a streak of 12 in a row. UConn has played to a 96 percent of capacity during its time there before a total of 2,023,448 fans. The building of the facility and its management was and is the result of incredible teamwork and dedication between the state’s Office of Policy and Management, the town of East Hartford, United Technologies Corporation and the assistance from numerous public and private sector organizations. The result of this cooperation gives the people of Connecticut the opportunity to view college football at its highest level in a world-class facility. The natural grass playing surface of Rentschler Field is 26 feet below grade at the stadium and was resodded in the summer of 2011. Rentschler Field features stadium seating, outdoor chairback seating, fully enclosed club seats and luxury suites.

The tower at Rentschler Field includes levels for suites, club seating and media/game management facilities. There are 38 suites in the stadium and more than 600 seats in the club area, which also includes a 12,000-square foot function area, which is used by club patrons on gameday and is available for meetings and social events the remainder of the year. The outdoor seating area of Rentschler Field includes nearly 4,000 chairback seats with the rest being bleacher seating. Rentschler Field is unique in the fact that it has handicap accessible seating on the field level. The media facilities are some of the most modern in the country with seating for 125 media members in the main press area. There are also separate booths for television and radio broadcasts. That level also includes booths for coaching staffs, security, public address announcer, scoreboard operation and other gameday facilities. The concourses at Rentschler Field provide generous, open and barrier-free circulation for entering and exiting the facility. The concourse also provides easy access to various concession and novelty stands and restrooms. The stadium features state-of-the-art facilities for members of the UConn football team, including an incredible locker room area. The main UConn locker room is 3,750 square feet and has space for 125 players. There is also a coaches locker room, equipment area and medical training rooms. There is also a spacious visiting team locker room area with similar amenities. The audio and video facilities at Rentschler Field are some of the most advanced in the country. The sound system is de-centralized with approximately 300 digital-quality speakers providing the audio. The west end of the stadium features a scoreboard that has a 24-foot by 32-foot video replay screen.


Rentsch l e r F i e l d The various East Hartford area non-profit groups that staffed the concession stands on game days are able to generate approximately $65,000 on an annual basis through their work at the games. Rentschler Field is also the home of the Connecticut High School Coaches Hall of Fame, which is located on the southwest concourse.

Through a concerted effort, the stadium project far outpaced the state’s requirements to help small, women and minorityowned companies grow with ongoing economic development. This means contractors and individuals that may never before have been able to benefit from projects of this scale helped build their skills, their companies and their careers while they help build their community.

Rentschler F i e l d

The “original” Rentschler Field, an airfield which later saw the likes of Charles Lindbergh and Amelia Earhart, was dedicated on May 24, 1931. Those taking part in the ceremonies were (left to right): Donald Brown, President of Pratt & Whitney Aircraft; United States Senator Hiram Bingham of Connecticut; Edward A. Deeds, United Aircraft Board of Directors; F. Trubee Davison, Assistant Secretary of War; Frederick B. Rentschler, Founder of Pratt & Whitney Aircraft and Chairman of United Aircraft Corporation (now United Technologies Corporation).

An exhibition soccer game between the British teams of Liverpool and Glasgow Celtic was played on July 26, 2004; an exhibition women’s soccer match between the United States and China on Aug. 1, 2004; a men’s World Cup qualifying match between the United States and Trinidad and Tobago was played on Aug. 17, 2005; the United States men’s national team playing their final tuneup before 2006 World Cup against Latvia on May 28, 2006; an exhibition women’s soccer match between the United States and Norway on July 14, 2007; a World Cup sendoff match between the United States and the Czech Republic on May 25, 2010; and an exhibition women’s soccer match between the United States and Sweden on July 17, 2010. In February of 2011, Whalers Hockey Fest was held at Rentschler

Field as an ice rink was set up on the surface. The ten-day event hosted numerous hockey games, including a doubleheader which featured both the UConn men’s and women’s ice hockey teams. Rentschler Field also serves as the home of the Hartford Colonials of the United Football League. UConn received the Governor’s Leadership Award in December of 2003 for its efforts in the first year of play at Rentschler Field. The annual award is given to an individual or group that had done an outstanding job in bringing together a wide spectrum of people and resources to bear on a significant development issue in Connecticut. UConn was cited for working hard to assure that Rentschler Field was a significant economic resource for the greater Hartford region and a point of pride for the high quality of life in the area that business leaders seek. The 75-acre site for the stadium was donated by United Technologies and sits on a former airfield — Rentschler Field — which opened in 1931 and saw the likes of Charles Lindbergh and Amelia Earhart. In addition to the donation of the land for the stadium, UTC is allowing another 100 acres of its land to be used for gameday parking. There is a display on the history of the site as an airfield in the stadium. The “original” Rentschler Field was dedicated on May 24, 1931. The company air field served as a base for experimental flight tests of airplanes, engines and propellers and was also used for servicing and overhauling engines. In later years the airfield was used for general aviation for United Aircraft Corporation — now United Technologies Corporation. The field was de-commissioned as an active airport in the 1990s.

J. Robert Donnelly Husky Heritage

SPORTS MUSEUM T

he sights and sounds of more than a century of intercollegiate athletics competition come alive during a visit to the J. Robert Donnelly Husky Heritage Sports Museum. Located in the new and expanded UConn Alumni Center in the heart of the University of Connecticut’s main campus in Storrs, the Husky Heritage Sports Museum is the ultimate library documenting the wide-ranging successes of Connecticut’s athletic programs. The state-of-the-art design and layout of the 2,700 square foot Husky Heritage Sports Museum, named after benefactor and 1940 Connecticut basketball and football captain J. Robert (Bob) Donnelly (shown above with wife M.J.), vividly captures all of the energy, excitement and enthusiasm that is associated with “Huskymania”. Donnelly passed away on Sept. 26, 2005. The visitors’ UConn experience begins with the University of Connecticut “National Champions” Gallery. This unique museum addition, located in the entrance foyer of the Husky Heritage Sports Museum, was unveiled in December of 2004 and will serve as a permanent tribute to all University of Connecticut varsity teams that climbed to the mountaintop and earned the right to be called National Champions. Currently, a total of 14 national champion squads, representing four different UConn sports, have team photos and national championship logos on display in the National Champions gallery. Included in the National Champions Gallery is the unbeaten 1948 men’s soccer team of Coach John Squires, the 1981 and 1985 UConn women’s field hockey teams of Coach Diane Wright, the 1981 men’s soccer team of Coach Joe Morrone, the 2000 men’s soccer team of Coach Ray Reid, the six national championship women’s basketball teams of Coach Geno Auriemma (1995, 2000, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2009), and the 1999, 2004 and 2011 UConn men’s basketball teams of Coach Jim Calhoun. Upon entering the Husky Heritage Sports Museum, visitors are greeted by a full figure statue of Jonathan, the legendary mascot of all Husky athletic teams. Oversized banners proudly hang from the ceiling, displaying action images that feature 88 of Connecticut’s All-American stars representing 17 different intercollegiate sports. A tour of the various sections of the Husky Heritage Sports Museum is a walk down memory lane for long-time followers of Connecticut athletics. For fans just becoming acquainted with UConn’s tradition of excellence, the various themes and areas of the museum, when woven together, narrate a complete and compelling sport-by-sport story line. The growth and development of Connecticut athletics is traced via text, photographs and select artifacts from its humble beginnings in the 1890s to its present day ranking among the elite major college athletic programs in the nation. Included among the “must see” memorabilia in the Husky Heritage Sports Museum main concourse are the 1981 and 2000 NCAA National Championship Men’s Soccer trophies; the 1981 and 1985 NCAA National

208 UConnHuskies.com

Championship Women’s Field Hockey trophies; the 1950s era baseball gloves belonging to Connecticut’s three Dropo brothers-including Walt Dropo’s first baseman’s mitt when he was the American League Rookie of the Year with the Boston Red Sox in 1950; the 1935 Ramnapping Trophy, awarded annually to the winner of the ConnecticutRhode Island football game; a 1931 football signed by the entire Connecticut squad; team photos of Connecticut’s first men’s (1901) and women’s (1902) basketball squads; and the Waterford Crystal NCAA National Championship trophies won by UConn Women’s Basketball (1995, 2000, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2009, 2010) and UConn Men’s Basketball (1999, 2004, 2011). The pinnacle achievement of UConn’s nine NCAA National Championships in both men’s and women’s basketball is preserved and promoted in a unique circular sanctuary–the Connecticut Basketball Rotunda, a gift of Herb and Marcia Dunn. Championship trophies and related artifacts that chronicle UConn’s men’s and women’s national titles are prominently featured in the rotunda, as are life-size cutouts of Husky All-American stars Ray Allen and Rebecca Lobo. Celebratory paintings of head coaches Jim Calhoun and Geno Auriemma are on display along with a one-of-a-kind watercolor team photo of the 25-member UConn Men’s Basketball All-Century team. Also within the Husky Heritage Sports Museum experience is a video wall featuring a 65-inch high definition television. Visitors can view numerous historical moments in UConn history as captured on a variety of highlight films and documentaries. Each display case of memorabilia and every historical photograph located within the walls of the J. Robert Donnelly Husky Heritage Sports Museum describe a portion of a truly remarkable story. That story of the teams, the coaches, and student-athletes who have been part of the rich history that constitutes the University of Connecticut athletic experience is now being told on a daily basis at UConn’s Husky Heritage Sports Museum. In addition, there is a display on the history of football at UConn – from its starts in 1897, to its time in Division I-AA and now as a team that has played in a Bowl Championship Series game. The J. Robert Donnelly Husky Heritage Sports Museum is open free of charge to the general public during regular business hours (8 a.m. to 5 p.m.) of the UConn Alumni Center. Since the Husky Heritage Sports Museum opened in January of 2002, several important artifacts have been donated from UConn loyalists to help expand the scope of the Connecticut Athletics storyline. The University of Connecticut Division of Athletics continues to seek additional memorabilia/artifacts to help expand the story of the UConn Huskies. Anyone wishing to donate specific Connecticut Athletics items to the J. Robert Donnelly Husky Heritage Sports Museum should contact: Tim Tolokan, Phone: (860) 486-9097, e-mail: tim. tolokan@uconn.edu.


Bow l G a m e s

T

he BIG EAST has always aligned itself with prestigious bowl games. The league is one of the original founders of the Bowl Championship Series and continues to be one of only six conferences that receives an automatic annual bid. The BIG EAST Conference champion earns the league’s automatic BCS bid. The BCS – which enters its 14th season in 2011-12 – is a five-game arrangement for postseason college football that is designed to match the two top-rated teams in a national championship game and to create exciting and competitive matchups between eight other highly regarded teams in four other BCS games. If the BIG EAST champion finishes No. 1 or No. 2 in the final BCS standings, that team earns a spot in the BCS National Championship Game. Otherwise, the league champion will compete in one of the four remaining BCS bowl games – the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl, Discover Orange Bowl, Allstate Sugar Bowl or the Rose Bowl Game presented by Vizio. The BIG EAST unveiled an enhanced collection of bowl partnerships beginning in 2010 that matches conference teams against opponents from the Atlantic Coast Conference, the Big 12 Conference, the Southeastern Conference and

Conference USA. The Champs Sports Bowl has the first selection of BIG EAST teams after the conference’s BCS representative is determined. During the four years of the deal, the Champs Sports Bowl has the option to choose Notre Dame once in place of a BIG EAST team. The Atlantic Coast Conference will provide the opposition for the Champs Sports Bowl, which is played in Orlando, Fla. The BIG EAST enters its 10th year as a partner with the Belk Bowl in Charlotte, N.C. Played in Bank of America Stadium, the Belk Bowl will select its BIG EAST participant after the Champs Sports Bowl with the ACC again providing the opponent. The BIG EAST and the Big 12 conferences partnered for a new bowl game in 2010 as the New Era Pinstripe Bowl was played for the first time at Yankee Stadium in New York City. In the event that the Big 12 is unable to send an eligible team to the New Era Pinstripe Bowl, Notre Dame could step in as the BIG EAST team’s opponent. A BIG EAST representative will face either an opponent from the Southeastern Conference or the Conference USA champion as part of a fouryear arrangement with the BBVA Compass Bowl in Birmingham, Ala., and the AutoZone Liberty

Bowl in Memphis. The BIG EAST will send a team to one of those bowl games in each year of the deal The BIG EAST has been a partner with the BBVA Compass Bowl since 2006 and has seen its teams go 5-0 in the previous games. Louisville, Pittsburgh, Syracuse and West Virginia, meanwhile, have all played in the AutoZone Liberty Bowl in past years. The 2011 season will mark the fourth year of the BIG EAST’s partnership with the Beef ‘O’Brady’s Bowl at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Fla. The Beef ‘O’Brady’s Bowl pairs the BIG EAST representative against an opponent from Conference USA. The enhanced lineup gives BIG EAST teams access to at least six postseason games each year.
