OUTLOOK TM

4th-ranked Cougars Aim for Greater Success with Extensive Talent, Experience Returning for 19th Season What a difference a year makes.

Now coming off one of its best seasons, the University of Saint Francis dives into its 19th football season as one of the top three teams in NAIA according to one preseason publication.

Optimism around the program is extremely positive considering Head Coach Kevin Donley welcomes back . . .

2015 MSFA Mideast League Player of the Year Nick Ferrer All-MSFA First Team Wide Receiver Seth Coate All-MSFA First Team RB Justin Green All-MSFA First Team LB Spencer Cowherd All-MSFA First Team DE Lucas Sparks . . .

USF entered 2015 off a 6-5 2014 finish, but the Cougars bounced back to finish the 2015 regular season at 9-0, the ONLY NAIA team to go unbeaten. It was the first time in 18 seasons USF has ever finished as the ONLY unbeaten team during the regular season.

The Cougars won the Mid-States Football Association Mideast League crown with a 6-0 record, USF’s league-leading 12th league title and the ninth unbeaten USF winner. The Cougars advanced to their seventh NAIA Football Championship Series Semifinal Game, the first since 2008, before losing to in-state rival Marian University 45-14.

It’s that defeat that serves as motivation heading into the 2016 season as well as winning USF’s first national championship on the gridiron.

“We’ve had even more (players) at our summer workouts than we did last season,” Ferrer observed during an interview with WFFT Channel 55 Sports Director Michael Bundt in late July. “That was a major reason for our success last season and we know we have a great senior class that won’t let us become complacent. We have the team, the leadership, to take the next step up.”

Here’s a closer pre-season look at the Cougars heading into season 19.

OFFENSE / QUARTERBACK

Keeping Ferrer (6-4, 225, Jr., Westfield, IN / Westfield) healthy is the top priority on offense for several reasons but most importantly because he is the only returnee at QB. The 6-foot-5 junior exceeded expectations in 2015 and will look to at least duplicate his accomplishments from his sophomore season.

Year Player, Yr.

2015 Nick Ferrer, So.

W-L 11-1

NAIA FCS 2-1

No question the target on his back is much larger entering 2016 after the Westfield H.S. grad penned the s econd best season by the numbers.

Ferrer threw for at least two TDs in Cmp-Att-Int Cmp% TD Yds

yards in 10 of 11 games. Hibbeln had t two sub-200 yard passing games in 2000. Ferrer was selected MSFA MEL Offensive Player of the Year, the youngest USF quarterback to earn the award and just the second USF QB to win the honor.

While Ferrer has the top slot locked down, there will be three freshmen battling for the No. 2 slot backing up the junior returnee. True freshmen Jakob Coker (6-2, 183, Fr., Tecumseh, MI / Tecumseh), Danny Naylor (6-4, 180, Fr., Xenia, OH / Xenia) and Clay Senerius (6-4, 184, Fr., Waterford, MI / Our Lady of the Lakes) are the candidates Donley and his son Pat will be scrutinizing for the No. 2 slot.

RECEIVERS

That’s just the core of talent and experience returning for 2016.

The strong-armed junior completed 23 TD passes for 25 or more yards in 2015. No doubt returning your top receiver in Coate will enhance Ferrer’s game along with a healthy Akeim Kelsaw, Sean Boswell and eight more receivers/backs who caught at least four passes in 2015. Ferrer completed 23 passes for 30 or more yards, 13 for TDs.

There is no shortage of options for Ferrer whether you look to Seth Coate or Montay McDowell (6-2, 198, Sr., Indianapolis, IN / Ben Davis) out wide or wingbacks Boswell (5-9, 185, Jr., Indianapolis, IN / Ben Davis), Akeim Kelsaw (6-0, 200, Sr., Fort Wayne, IN / Snider), Charles Gaston (5-8, 177, Jr., Fort Wayne, IN / Bishop Luers) or Andreas Gomez-Espino (6-0, 175, So., Fort Wayne, IN / Snider). All of them are capable playmakers including yards-after-catch. USF completed 23 plays for 30 or more yards, and 17 of those 23 were by players returning for 2015.

USF returns 64 percent of its pass receiving yards from 2015 – 2,225 yards – and 29 TDs of the 43 caught. Coate accounted for 55 percent of the receiving yardage returning (1,225) in 2016 and 67 percent of the returning receiving TDs (18).

And with nine more freshman receivers joining the mix in 2016, depth is an asset for the Cougars as well as talent.

BACKFIELD Green (5-10, 186, So., Griffith, IN / Griffith) registered breakout numbers in the latter half of the 2015 season including USF’s first two NAIA Football Championship Series games when he became the first Cougar to ever rush for 200-plus yards in back-to-back games. All the more impressive considering he did it against the No. 12 and No. 5 ranked team in the NAIA Coaches’ Top 25.

PJ Dean (5-11, 187, So., Butler, IN / Eastside) gives the USF staff another playbreaking back with speed and determination. He led USF in rushing twice in wins last year and rushed for 100 yards in his first collegiate game on six carries. Aaron Harris (5-9, 205, Sr., Whiteland, IN / Whiteland Community), who notched two of USF’s seven 100-plus yards rushing games before moving to wingback, returns to tailback for his senior season as a runner who dishes out punishment. And Jason Nicodemus (5-9, 204, Sr., Churubusco, IN / Churubusco) returns after taking a medical redshirt season in the 2015 for additional depth.

Green shattered the USF single-game rushing record dashing across snow-covered Kevin Donley Field at Bishop D’Arcy Stadium for 252 yards against 12th-ranked Reinhardt University (Ga.) in the first round of the NAIA Football Championship Series.

Green also set the USF record and USF high in the NAIA FCS with his total on 32 carries including three TDs. Green also shattered the D’Arcy Stadium record (209 yards) set by Michael Ledo in 2005 for a USF player and the overall record set in 2001

by Ross Moline (244 yards, 36 carries) on Sept. 15, 2001 in a 20-12 USF win.

OFFENSIVE LINE

With four of five starters back and four more No. 2s on the depth chart returning, Ferrer should be well protected when passing and the Cougars should continue to move the ball on the ground in a similar manner from 2015. Three senior AllMSFA linemen return from an O-line that paved the way for 5,925 yards of total offense, 493.8 yards per game in 2015.

On the right side USF welcomes back two All-MSFA first-team selections in right guard Zach Minardo (6-2, 308, Sr., Camby, IN / Mooresville) and right tackle Keegan Bruner (6-1, 310, Sr., Warsaw, IN / Warsaw). Look for both to expand leadership roles and continue to be physical blockers for both the run and pass.

All-MSFA second-team choice Brian Gegner (6-3, 262, Sr., Indianapolis, IN / Warren Central) returns at center and Alex Woods (6-2, 265, Jr., Greenwood, IN / Center Grove) returns at left tackle as an All-MSFA second-team selection. Sophomore Austin Smogor (6-3, 300, So., Greenwood,IN / Center Grove) is the front-runner at left guard after seeing extensive playing time as a true freshman. USF OL Coach Trevor Miller expects strong competition for playing time from Jaylen Gamble (6-3, 292, Jr., Indianapolis, IN / North Central), Connor Holcomb (6-3, 255, Jr., Kendallville, IN / East Noble), Anthony Wilkerson (6-0, 307, Sr., Lima, OH / Central), and at center, Shawn Ryan (6-0, 253, Sr., Fort Wayne, IN / Bishop Dwenger).

DEFENSE / LINE

USF sacks leader Sparks (6-1, 239, Sr., Springfield, OH / Shawnee) returns for his senior campaign intent on improving his numbers and USF defensive numbers with help from several talented returnees including starting interior lineman Christian Johnson (6-2, 276, Sr., Indianapolis, IN / Scecina Memorial) and the formidable Eric Hemmelgarn (6-5, 288, So., Portland, IN / Jay County).

Look for Jordan May (6-2, 241, So., Fishers, IN / Hamilton Southeastern) to take over at the other defensive end after gaining valuable experience in the rotation in a non-starting role in 2015. May was in the rotation in 2015 getting time in place of USF graduate Karrington Thompson.

Cam Shackleford (6-4, 250, Sr., Fort Wayne, IN / South Side) will work into the interior rotation after playing significant minutes in 2015. Matt Swartz (6-1, 280, R-Fr., Fort Wayne, IN / Snider) emerged as a competent rotation option on the interior while D’ylan Richardson (6-1, 249, Sr., Indianapolis, IN / Scecina Memorial) will challenge for more playing time in the interior as well. Malachi Manion (6-2, 226, So., Dearborn Heights, MI / Robichaud) made an impression in spring workouts and will figure in the defensive end rotation.

LINEBACKER

No other team in the MSFA has what the Cougars have – two returning All-MSFA linebackers. All Spencer Cowherd (6-2, 195, Jr., Fort Wayne, IN / Northrop) did as a sophomore outside linebacker was score two interception TDs, lead USF in INTs with five and tied for second most in the MSFA in 2015.

The second returnee is a sophomore who was All-MSFA First Team in 2015 as a freshman – a first for the Cougars. That’s Piercen Harnish (6-0, 220, So., Ossian, IN / Norwell), who led the Cougars in tackles with 108 and solo tackles with 50 and finished 10th in the MSFA. Matt Muncy (6-1, 264, Jr., Lafayette, IN / McCutcheon) is no slouch as the third returnee at the second level who was a starter in 2015 as a sophomore. Muncy finished No. 3 in USF tackles with 71.

“Young AND experienced is a great combination,” Donley observed. “Can’t wait to see what our linebacker corps accomplishes this season.”

Eric Dunten (6-1, 205, So., Fort Wayne, IN / Carroll), Devin Green (6-1, 211, So., Bloomington, IN / Bloomington North) and Marcus Stepp (6-0, 225, So., Fort Wayne, IN / Bishop Dwenger) all saw significant playing time in 2015 and will figure in the rotation even more prominently in 2016 providing experience and depth.

SECONDARY

Experience, depth and talent are an asset at the third level with the return of three of four starters and a capable backup. Na’Shawn Lewis (6-1, 203, Sr., Avon, IN / Ben Davis) and Jerrell Holman (5-9, 175, Sr., Fort Wayne, IN / Northrop) are

returning starters at cornerback. Wilmer Cole got valuable playing experience in 2015 as a true freshman and brings length and athleticism to the mix as a rotation defender who finished with No. 3 on the solo tackles list with 34. Shannon Swain (5-10, 185, Sr., Anderson, IN / Anderson), Stan Jackson (5-11, 165, So., Indianapolis, IN / Bishop Chatard) and Shaton Harris (5-10, 185, So., Fort Wayne, IN / South Side) also figure in the mix.

Lee Stewart III (5-11, 190, Jr., Lima, OH / Central Catholic) takes over at one safety vacated by graduate Cale Tabler while Vito Tupea (5-11, 200, So., Indianapolis, IN / Warren Central), Emmanuel Evans (5-11, 165, So., Indianapolis, IN / Broad Ripple) and Adam Hoffer (6-1, 185, So., New Haven, IN / New Haven) are expected to challenge for playing time in the safety rotation.

SPECIALISTS

Ryan Nix (6-1, 206, Sr., Valparaiso, IN / Valparaiso) returns with his long-range, surefooted kicking game after finishing second in scoring for USF in 2015. His 7-for-7 field goal season is the first perfect season in 18 and he’s capable of extending his run into his senior year. Josh Spitnale (6-5, 221, Sr., Fort Wayne, IN / Snider) returns as one of the top punters in the MSFA, a weapon capable of pinning teams deep in their own territory.

Charles Gaston (5-8, 177, Jr., Fort Wayne, IN / Bishop Luers) returns as the leading kickoff returner from last season averaging 16.3 yards per return and 342 yards on 21 returns. He’s got the speed to break the big play this season after posting four returns for 20 or more yards as a sophomore.

Replacing Tabler as the primary punt returner will be the major decision for the USF special teams coaching staff. Options include Boswell, who returned four punts in 2015, and Gaston, who returned three for 47 yards in 2015.

SCHEDULE

No doubt No. 1 and defending NAIA Champion Marian University will be circled when the Knights return to Bishop D’Arcy Stadium on Oct. 1 for what will be USF’s fifth game of its 10-game schedule. Based on the 2016 Spring NAIA Coaches’ Poll, MU is the only Top 25 team on the USF schedule.

Robert Morris University was 31st as a received-votes-team that USF plays at D’Arcy Stadium on Oct. 22 in a non-Mideast League clash.

Davenport University is USF’s only first-time opponent on the 2016 schedule. USF will play DU in a non-conference game to end the 2016 regular season in Grand Rapids, Mich.

NEWCOMERS

USF welcomes 34 fresh faces to the program including two-time AP All-State firstteam selection in Jacob Earl (RB, North Vermillion H.S.) and six additional AP (honorable mention) selections and six IFCA North-South Game selections. Including Earl, there are five student-athletes who played on a state championship team.

AP All-State picks along with Earl include Mitchell Thornbury (ILB, Castle H.S.), Will Chrisman (WR, DeKalb H.S.), Blake Schumacher (FS, Carroll H.S.), James Jamicich (DE, Carroll H.S.), Jeremy Herber (OL, Bishop Dwenger H.S.), Zach Norton (CB, Bishop Dwenger H.S.), Jamal Jackson (ILB, Cathedral H.S.), Duke Blackwell (WR, New Palestine H.S.) and Nick Brickens (DB, New Palestine H.S.).

Norton had an interception and two tackles for the North in a mid-July 10-7 victory. Earl rushed five times for nine yards in a defensive dominated game.

The Cougars have five incoming freshmen from Ohio – three from Xenia High School including Rocky James, an All-Greater Western Ohio Conference first team WR and All-Southwest Ohio pick. Joining James is CB Ryan Johnson (XHS Defensive Player of the Year) and QB Danny Naylor (XHS Offensive Player of the Year).

HALL OF FAME TM

USF Athletic Hall of Fame Welcomes One Team and Four Former Student Athletes in 23rd Induction Class FORT WAYNE, Ind. – The University of Saint Francis Athletic Hall of Fame will welcome one team and four former studentathletes in September on Homecoming Weekend when the USF football team plays Lindenwood-Belleville (IL) on Sat., Sept. 24.

She was an all-conference (Mid-Central Collegiate Conference) first-team selection in 2002 and 2003.

Jackson was a devoted instructor and coach for more than 30 years, joining the basketball staff of Jim Holstein in 1983-84. Jackson earned a B.S. in physical education, health and recreation from St. Joseph’s College and a M.A. from Ball State University in 1975. Tom served in the U.S. Army as a paratrooper in the Special Forces for three years. He served on the staff of the Milwaukee Bucks in 1973 and 1974. He also served as director of the physical education department at SFC and USF.

The four USF student-athlete graduates chosen for induction as the 23rd class include Michael Ledo (football), Denny Kummer (basketball), Amanda Minch (softball) and Tom Jackson (assistant coach – men’s basketball, track and field, cross-country, athletics administrator, instructor). The team selected was the 2003 USF Men’s Soccer team.

Ledo, a Bishop Luers H.S. graduate, set the USF career record for rushing yardage and is still No. 2 with 3,905 yards in four seasons.

He helped lead the Cougars to NAIA Championship Games in 2004 and 2005.

The 2003 men’s soccer team won the program’s first conference championship since 1977. Head Coach Mitch Ellisen directed the Cougars to a 6-1 record in the MCC and the team advanced to the NAIA Region 21 Championship Game before losing and finishing 13-9.

Kummer, a New Haven H.S. graduate, finished as the career scoring leader at then Saint Francis College with 1,247 points, a 16.4 scoring average in three seasons concluding with 1967-68. In 76 games, Kummer scored 20 or more points in 25 games, led SFC scoring in 24 games and set the then single-game scoring record with 39 points in December 1966 under the guidance of Head Coach Terry Coonan.

Minch is a South Adams H.S. graduate who was a four-year starter at catcher who finished with a career batting average of .367, which still ranks No. 5 at USF. Minch finished No. 2 in USF career hits (172) and doubles (35) at the end of her senior season in 2004.

This is the 23rd class of USF AHOF inductees, which started with the class of one in 1989 – founder of the then Saint Francis College athletic program, athletic director and coach, Terry Coonan.

The USF AHOF will expand to 79 individuals and six teams with the addition of the 2016 class. The Alumni and Athletic Hall of Fame Awards Celebration will be at the USF North Campus on Friday, Sept. 23. The time is to be announced. All USF AHOF members will be recognized at halftime of the USF football game on Sat., Sept. 24, against Lindenwood-Belleville at noon.

The University of Saint Francis, founded in 1890 as a comprehensive university in the Catholic Franciscan tradition, offers more than 60 undergraduate and 14 graduate programs in five schools: The School of Health Sciences, School of Arts and Sciences, Keith Busse School of Business and Entrepreneurial Leadership, School of Professional Studies and School of Creative Arts. More than 2,350 students from a broad geographic region attend USF for its academic excellence. The university has a regional campus in Crown Point, Ind., and a downtown Fort Wayne campus, opening in September 2016.

COUGAR FOOTBALL 2016

Experience the University of Saint Francis The University of Saint Francis is located on the western edge of Fort Wayne, Indiana. The beautiful 108-acre campus, with its rolling lawns and tree-shaded coves, surrounds scenic Mirror Lake.

Among the major main campus features is stately Brookside, a castlelike mansion that once housed the entire university. The building was placed on the National Register of Historic Places on June 2, 1982. Now meticulously restored to its former grandeur, the one-time summer home of turn-of-the-century industrialist John Bass is routinely toured by the public, especially during Christmas at the Castle each year. Brookside houses USF administrative offices, and public and administrative meetings are often held there.

The Pope John Paul II Center, a 90,000 square-foot complex, houses an expanded library, classrooms, faculty offices, computer labs, computer training facilities, dining facilities and student services. The School of Liberal Arts and Sciences and the Campus Shoppe are currently located in the facility.

The Achatz Hall of Science contains seven science-related laboratories, preparation rooms, independent research rooms, radiation and instrumental analysis labs, a greenhouse, a telescopic observation desk and the Gunderson Auditorium.

Trinity Hall, the main administration building, includes offices, the St. Francis Chapel, dining room and Diversity Center. Residence facilities include Bonzel Hall, Padua Hall and Clare Hall.

The Doermer Family Center for Health Science Education duplicates modern hospital facilities for surgical technology, critical care, physical therapy, occupational therapy and outpatient clinics. Also included are a radiologic technology lab, a nursing simulation laboratory, classrooms and faculty offices.

The Mimi and Ian Rolland Art and Visual Communication Center provides facilities for degree programs in commercial art, fine art, art education, communication and computer animation. The center features two art galleries, art studios, a television studio, computer facilities, classrooms and offices.

Bishop John D’Arcy Stadium, Kevin Donley Field on the west side of the campus is home to the only collegiate football program in Fort Wayne.

The R. Bruce Dye Strength Training Center and Shields Family Pavilion is located on the south end of the stadium. USF has the first collegiate field utilizing Sporturf, thanks to generous contributions from private donors. This faster, safer artificial surface makes Bishop D’Arcy Stadium a versatile venue for USF and high school soccer and lacrosse, as well as Cougar football. The stadium also holds the USF football offices in the Tom Jehl Football Complex under the west stands.

The Hutzell Athletic Center houses facilities for Cougar basketball and volleyball teams, and contains locker room facilities for men’s and women’s soccer, baseball, softball, cross-country and track and field, plus offices for the coaching staff and a fitness center. Intercollegiate men’s and women’s golf and tennis are also offered at USF. Intramural coeducational sports are offered year-round for fun, fitness and friendship.

The Center for Franciscan Life is located in the Campus Ministry building as well as guest rooms and counseling rooms, and is the home of the campus chaplain.

All of the buildings are just a short walk from the Student Center, with its game and meeting rooms and lounge.

The North Campus, located across Spring Street from Brookside, features an auditorium, gymnasium, classrooms, offices, and the Lupke Gallery.

This year, we proudly open our new USF Downtown location in the heart of Fort Wayne. The USF Business Center, located in the former Chamber of Commerce building, houses the Keith Busse School of Business and Entrepreneurial Leadership. The university’s business programs will all be housed in this facility, allowing students to have unprecedented access to local business and community leaders for internships and mentoring opportunities. The Business Center also houses the Historic Woman’s Club, which will host many events throughout the year and is available for rental.

Just around the corner, in the USF Robert Goldstine Performing Arts Center, our new Music Technology Center opens to students this year as well. These classrooms, recording studios and performance spaces contain state-of-the-art equipment and were designed with the expertise of our community partner Sweetwater. Plus, the downtown location puts students within footsteps of many of Fort Wayne’s cultural hotspots to collaborate and mentor with other creative groups in the city. With the historic 2,000-seat auditorium available, many outstanding performances will come from these new education spaces.

Founded in 1890 as a comprehensive university in the Catholic Franciscan tradition, the University of Saint Francis offers more than 80 undergraduate and graduate programs through the School of Health Sciences, School of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Keith Busse School of Business and Entrepreneurial Leadership and School of Creative Arts. In addition to its traditional programs, USF designs focused curricula for working adults in Fort Wayne, Crown Point and online. Currently 2,300 students from a broad geographic region attend USF for its academic excellence.

Bishop John D’Arcy Stadium Bishop John D’Arcy Stadium on the west side of the campus is home to the only collegiate football program in Fort Wayne and now features a new surface thanks to the generosity of an anonymous donor. It also includes the R. Bruce Dye Strength Training Center and Shields Family Pavilion. The new facility will be a major asset to future Cougars building strength as well as speed for football on the recently dedicated Daniel Carter Speed Training track. The facility also provides a picturesque view of Kevin Donley Field and the west side of the campus from the donor-funded $1.5 million facility. USF became the first collegiate field in Indiana to utilize Sporturf thanks to generous contributions from private donors. Groundbreaking for the installation of this faster, safer artificial surface took place on June 23, 2004, and makes Bishop D’Arcy Stadium a versatile venue not only for football but also USF men’s and women’s soccer and community youth football, soccer and lacrosse programs. Lights were installed in June 2012. Football offices are located in the Tom Jehl Football Complex, along with home and visitor locker rooms.

Hutzell Fitness Center Hutzell Fitness Center had its grand opening in fall 2007. Located on the east side of Hutzell Athletic Center, the facility houses an impressive variety of workout equipment to help anyone reach their fitness goals.

Hutzell Athletic Center Hutzell Athletic Center is the home for Cougar basketball and volleyball, and contains locker room facilities for men’s and women’s soccer, baseball, softball, cross-country, track and field, offices for the coaching staff on the second floor, west side, and the Hutzell Fitness Center. HAC was opened in May 1990, and in the first basketball game that November, USF edged IPFW 66-64. During the $200,000 Rolland Hall of Athletics renovation project, HAC coaches’ offices were relocated to the second floor of the west end. The project also included expansion of locker room and training facilities, completed in August 2008.

Coonan Field Coonan Field is named in honor of the first and long-time USF coach and athletic director, Terry Coonan. It was dedicated during homecoming in the fall of 1996 and is located just south of Achatz Hall of Science.

Cougar Field Cougar Field was finished in fall 1991, and USF played its first baseball game there in the spring of 1992. USF defeated Tri-State in the dedication game.

Westendorf Field The softball field on the mid-east edge of the campus was completed and dedicated in spring 2000. USF swept crosstown rival Indiana Tech 3-0 and 5-2.

REWIND TM

Season 18 - Rewind 2015 • 17th Consecutive Winning Season • Won 12th MSFA MEL championship • Advanced to 7th NAIA FCS Semifinal • QB Nick Ferrer MSFA MEL Player of the Year • Kevin Donley MSFA MEL CoTY 10th time • 13 Earn 1st Team All-MSFA MEL, 19 total honors Game 1 USF 59, Olivet Nazarene 16 Sat., Sept. 5, 2015 FORT WAYNE, Ind. – One play was all it took to put the 2014 season in the rearview mirror. On the first play of the game, sophomore quarterback Nick Ferrer connected with senior wide receiver Cam Smith on a fly route for a 79 yard touchdown. The catch happened on the near sidelines in front of over 3,000 fans as the University of Saint Francis (1-0) football team went on to win 59-16 over Olivet Nazarene on a steamy Saturday night at Bishop D’Arcy Stadium.

With the touchdown catch, Smith moved up to No. 2 on the USF all-time receiving yards list with 2,252 career receiving yards moving past Andy Papagiannis (2002-05, 2,160 yards).

Ferrer went on to throw for five touchdowns and finished 12-of-19 passing for 216 yards.

Four minutes after finding Smith, Cody Appenzeller took a shovel pass 13 yards for a score.

Two minutes later, Ferrer hit Montay McDowell for a 46-yard touchdown and the Cougars led 21-0, seven minutes into the game.

Game 2 USF 48, @ Taylor 42 Sat., Sept. 12, 2015 UPLAND, Ind. – What mattered most to USF was getting the “W” in a game the Cougars led by 42 in the third quarter.

USF Head Coach Kevin Donley will certainly remember his 280th career win as one that almost got away, but thankfully didn’t. Other events that make 280 one to remember was Ferrer delivering the third best passing game in the 18-year history of the USF program –

• Junior OL Zach Minardo is 2015 CoSIDA Academic AllAmerica® College Division Football First Team • USF qualifies for 15th NAIA FCS • Ferrer NAIA Player of the Week 9/14/15 • Spencer Cowherd (LB) NAIA Defensive Player of the Week 10/6/15

434 yards passing and his second consecutive five passing TDs game.

Junior Seth Coate provided more memories producing the sixth best receiving game for USF with 189 yards on seven receptions, both career highs. And he scored three TDs, the last providing most of the winning margin. Junior running back Aaron Harris put his name on the memories list with two TDs, the first a highlight-worthy score of 58 yards.

Yes, it was quite the thrill ride on Saturday night in the Mid-States Football Association Mideast League opener for both teams with the Cougars building a 48-7 lead, then holding on for their 90th MSFA MEL win. “I’ll remember No. 280 for a while,” Donley confirmed. “We’ve got a lot of young guys who are still learning. But for about 36 minutes tonight, we played some excellent football. I’m just happy to win.”

interception that led to a USF field goal and finished with 10 tackles. Senior Cale Tabler picked off his sixth interception in USF’s last six games to extend the Cougars’ streak of two or more INTs to six consecutive games, and DB Jerrell Holman had nine tackles, eight solo.

“I was really pleased with our defensive effort today,” USF Head Coach Kevin Donley said after his 281st career win, his 167th in 18 seasons as the Cougars’ main man. “They’ve got a very talented offensive unit and we kept them out of the end zone only giving up a field goal.”

TIU (2-1) running back Chris Elliott entered the game averaging 135.5 yards per game, but he only managed 38 yards on eight carries.

USF improved to 3-0 for its best start since 2011.

Game 3 @ USF 45, Trinity International 3 Sat. Sept. 19, 2015 FORT WAYNE, Ind. – Aaron Harris rushed for a career high 150 yards including a gamelong run for 51 yards in what was a very happy Homecoming for the Cougars.

17th-ranked University of Saint Francis bolted out to a 38-0 lead and sent more than 3,000 fans home very happy with a 45-3 conquest of Trinity International University on Saturday afternoon.

NAIA Offensive Player of the Week Nick Ferrer threw for 313 yards and four TD passes while junior running back Aaron Harris muscled his way to 150 yards rushing for the 3-0 Cougars. Linebacker Matt Muncy had an

Game 4 #14 USF 74, @ Lindenwood-Belleville 13 Sat. Sept. 26, 2015 BELLEVILLE, Ill. – Talk about offensive, talk about the 14th-ranked University of Saint Francis football team, which improved to 4-0 with a lopsided 74-13 win at Lindenwood University-Belleville on Saturday afternoon.

The Cougars improved to 2-0 in Mid-States Football Association Mideast League play after putting up some impressive numbers including a team-record seventh consecutive game with multiple interceptions. That was just the start of the Cougars’ “numbers” game.

USF finished with 729 yards total offense and a 445-yard advantage over the 1-3 Lynx.

USF controlled a 250-yard advantage in passing yardage (445-195) and a 195yard advantage on the ground (284-89).

fumbled MU pitch at the 50-yard line, Boswell soared for a Ferrer pass, came down around the MU 6-yard line and squirmed his way through three tacklers for the 28-yard go-ahead TD. Ryan Nix kicked the PAT for the winning threepoint margin with 1:01 to play.

USF improved to 3-0 in Mid-States Football Association Mideast League competition after the Cougars knocked off the defending champs. The Cougars avenged a 51-18 loss to the Knights (3-2, 1-1 MEL) on Nov. 15, 2014 despite trailing 21-0 in the first quarter and 28-7 with 12 minutes to play in the second quarter.

“I know offensively, we were tellin’ ourselves all we can do is put together drives and put points on the board, that’s what we had con-

USF sophomore QB Nick Ferrer racked up big numbers again throwing for 388 yards on 21-of-33 passing and three TDs. Senior WR Cam Smith caught three passes for 120 yards and an electrifying 58-yard TD, all in the first half. Seth Coate caught five passes for 101 yards and two TDs and in the process moving over the 1,000 yards career receiving plateau. Freshman Tirone Young rushed for 125 yards including a scintillating 73-yard TD and Justin Green finished with a team-leading 146 yards all-purpose yardage including two rushing TDs and one TD reception.

trol of offensively,” Ferrer said. “We knew we weren’t going to blow this team out. We knew we would face more adversity than we had in the previous games. We knew it would be a four quarter game and I’m extremely pleased with the way we handled it. I’m so pleased with our team, my brothers.”

Game 5 #11 USF 45, @ #6 Marian 42 Sat. Oct. 3, 2015 INDIANAPOLIS – No question about it, this Top 25 clash lived up to the hype with USF pulling off the upset.

“What an outstanding effort,” USF Head Coach Kevin Donley said after getting his 283rd career win. “We never gave up. We made plays. We had great effort all four quarters. We knew that anything short of that wouldn’t be enough.”

The 5-0 Cougars trailed 42-25 entering the fourth quarter before freshman P.J. Dean started the USF rebound with a 45-yard TD run. Boswell scored on a 23-yard TD pass from Ferrer (PAT was blocked) cutting the MU lead to 42-38 and after Christian Johnson secured a

The Knights, who played their eighth ranked opponent in their last nine games, had a 466393 advantage in total offense and 119-38 yard advantage in rushing yards, but MU lost two fumbles and Northern threw three interceptions. MU had nine penalties for 99 yards,

USF five for 55.

Game 6 #9 USF 49, Siena Heights 25 Sat., Oct. 10, 2015 FORT WAYNE, Ind. – Not this time. NAIA ninth-ranked University of Saint Francis rejected Siena Heights University thoughts of back-to-back upsets with a swarming defense and big-play offense for a 49-25 win on a perfect Saturday afternoon.

The USF win avenged a 27-20 SHU win at Bishop D’Arcy Stadium in 2014 that the Saints used to go on and earn a share of the Mid-States Football Association Mideast League title with Marian University.

The 6-0 Cougars scored on their first two possessions, held the Saints (2-3, 2-2 MSFA MEL) to a field goal on their first possession, and answered SHU’s one serious threat with back-to-back TDs in the last 5:10 of the half to take charge.

“After they beat us last year, this felt great,” USF senior defensive end Karrington Thompson said. “It was a trap game with us coming off a big win at Marian last week, but I think we responded well.”

COUGAR FOOTBALL 2016

Thompson led the USF swarm with three sacks for 16 yards, four solo tackles and nine total, and one QB hurry, but he had plenty of support. LB Piercen Harnish led USF in tackles with 10, a team-leading five solo, and 1.5 sacks for 12 yards. DE Lucas Sparks had a sack for eight yards and Tirone Young delivered his second 100-plus yard rushing game.

Game 7 #7 USF 48, Concordia 7 Sat., Oct. 17, 2015 FORT WAYNE, Ind. – What mattered most for the University of Saint Francis was the way the Cougars finished – 45-points in the final 50 minutes and change – defeating Concordia University by 41 points. The NAIA seventh-ranked Cougars clinched at least a share of the Mid-States Football Association Mideast League championship with its seventh consecutive win, fifth in MSFA MEL competition.

USF rolled up 570 yards total offense, piled up 244 yards rushing, 326 passing and held the Cardinals (4-3, 1-1 MSFA MEL) to 315 yard in total offense, 63 yards below their average.

CU, which got NAIA nation’s attention with a 35-14 win over then fifth-ranked St. Xavier University last Saturday, did take a 7-3 lead, but USF outscored the Cardinals 45-0 after that.

Take away QB Seth Suida’s 59-yard TD dash and CU only managed 256 yards of total offense.

Game 8 #7 USF 38, @ #9 Robert Morris 29 Sat., Oct. 24, 2015 ARLINGTON PARK, Ill. – All the University of Saint Francis needed was one more big play from its defense and Na’shawn Lewis raised his hand in a 38-29 win over No. 9 Robert Morris University on Saturday afternoon in Chicagoland.

Lewis pilfered a pass and scored an 8-yard interception touchdown sealing the NAIA Top 10 win for the seventh-ranked 8-0 Cougars.

USF outscored the Eagles (5-2) 31-15 in the second half after trailing 14-7 at halftime.

Lewis’ interception was the last of three in the second half for USF.

Under a steel-gray sky and in southwest winds whipping Morris Field around 20 miles per hour, Lewis’ play was the cherry on top of a banana split overflowing with big plays for the Cougars. His first INT for a TD this season at 2:01 to play in the game followed by a Ryan Nix PAT finished the scoring and USF’s second win over an NAIA Top 25 team this season. Both wins have been against NAIA Top 10 teams.

Lewis’ INT was the second of two USF pick-6 plays, the first a 64-yard momentum changing return by Spencer Cowherd early in the third quarter. Cowherd’s second pick-6 this season gave the Cougars a 17-14 lead at the 8:19 in the third quarter. Justin Green dashed to a 42-yard TD at 7:05 on USF’s second possession of the third quarter and in less than eight minutes, USF had turned a seven-point deficit into a 10-point advantage at 24-14.

Game 9 #5 USF 38, @ Missouri Baptist 6 Sat., Nov. 15, 2015 ST. LOUIS, Mo. – Using perfect weather, exceptional for mid-November, fifth-ranked USF scored a school-record 36 points in the second quarter leaving little doubt about the Cougars’ regular-season quest for perfection.

With a brilliant blue sky overhead and temperatures in the mid-60s at kickoff, USF posted its first unbeaten regular season since 2008

finishing 9-0 overall, 6-0 in the Mid-States Football Association Mideast League. The Cougars locked up their 12th MEL crown, their 10th outright, as well as an automatic berth in the NAIA Football Championship Series.

NAIA will reveal the final regular season poll Sunday afternoon and the Cougars will likely move up to No. 4 after finishing as the only unbeaten team in NAIA football this season.

Top-ranked Morningside University assured USF’s “only unbeaten” status with a 55-7 win over No. 4 Doane (Neb.), which was the only other unbeaten team prior to play on Saturday.

Nick Ferrer threw for five touchdown passes, finished 25-for-29 passing for 312 yards. Ferrer and Seth Coate connected for the second time at 13:11 in the second quarter, an 8-yard connection that ignited USF’s 36-point second quarter. By the time the quarter ended, USF led 43-3 at halftime, the seventh time in 18 seasons the Cougars have led by 40 or more at halftime. Ferrer connected for four TD passes in the second quarter. Defense added points when Cale Tabler returned an interception 40 yards for the score and a 20-0 USF lead at 10:58. And Charles Gaston blocked an MBU punt out of the end zone for a safety at 1:27.

Ferrer and Cam Smith hooked up for a 9-yard TD pass with 22 seconds to play in the half and Ryan Nix’ extra point produced a new record for points in a second quarter topping the 35 against Quincy in 2002.

Ferrer completed 12-of-14 passes in the second quarter for 156 yards and three TDs.

Game 10 @ #4 USF 37, #12 Reinhardt 26 Sat., Nov. 23, 2015 FORT WAYNE, Ind. – Justin Green rushed for a University of Saint Francis record, Seth Coate made two touchdown catches in the “SportsCenter Top 10” category and the USF defense limited 12th-ranked Reinhardt University to a season-low points in a 37-26 win at what became snow-covered Kevin Donley Field at Bishop D’Arcy Stadium.

The fourth-ranked Cougars won their 12thconsecutive NAIA Football Championship Series First Round game to advance to the quarterfinal round for the 13th time. RU

finished at 9-2 after its first appearance in the NAIA FCS in its third season playing football.

Green ran for 252 yards on 32 carries including three touchdown carries eclipsing the previous USF single-game rushing mark set

by Daniel Carter on Nov. 15, 2008 when the USF grad ran for 239 yards on 25 carries.

Green scored USF’s first TD on a 1-yard run for a 7-0 lead just two minutes, 37 seconds into the game. He added a 7-yard TD run in the second quarter for a 17-7 USF lead and a 25-yard dash through about three inches of snow early in the third quarter opening up a 31-7 USF lead. It was his second 100-yard plus game this season, USF’s sixth in 10 games.

His previous best was 140 at Robert Morris on Oct. 24, which means he rushed for 381 yards against two NAIA Top 25 teams this season averaging 7.8 yards per carry.

Green, a redshirt freshman, was chosen NAIA

Offensive Player of the Game by media covering the game. USF freshman Piercen Harnish was selected NAIA Defensive Player of the Game after finishing with 17 tackles including nine solo and two forced fumbles.

Game 11 @ #4 USF 42, #5 Montana Tech 20 Sat., Nov. 28, 2015 FORT WAYNE, Ind. – Minor halftime adjustments led to major dividends in a 42-20 University of Saint Francis win over fifth-ranked Montana Tech in one of four NAIA Football Championship Series Quarterfinal games on Saturday afternoon.

Tied at 14 at halftime, the 11-0, fourth-ranked Cougars buried the Orediggers with a 28-0 third quarter for a 42-14 lead heading into the fourth quarter at Bishop D’Arcy Stadium at Kevin Donley Field. On defense, USF limited NAIA rushing leader Nolan Saraceni (162.0 yards per game) to 63 yards on 24 carries, just 16 yards in the second half. And the Cougars intercepted three passes in the second half and recovered one fumble.

Justin Green was chosen NAIA Offensive Player-of-the-Game after he finished with 216 yards rushing on 21 carries to become the first USF back to deliver back-to-back 200-plus yards rushing games.

“We didn’t do anything major, just some minor things in some our schemes, and better execution,” USF Head Coach Kevin Donley said. “Taking the opening kickoff and scoring was a major step in the right direction and I thought our defense fed off the energy the offense generated in that first second-half drive.

We got a big-time throw (Nick Ferrer) and catch (Cam Smith) and a 24-yard run by Justin Green that elevated our level of play.”

Ferrer completed two passes to Cody Appenzeller for 5- and 4-yards, Green rushed two more times for six yards and P.J. Dean finished the go-ahead drive on a 7-yard touchdown for a 20-14 USF lead with 11:23 to play.

Ryan Nix’ extra-point attempt was blocked, but USF was unfazed and scored on its next three possessions knocking the hope out of the Orediggers (10-2) and ending their eightgame winning streak.

Game 12 #6 Marian 45, @ #4 USF 14 Sat., Dec. 5, 2015 FORT WAYNE, Ind. – For the first time in 21 NAIA Football Championship Series home games for the University of Saint Francis, the home field advantage was nullified in a 24-point Marian University second quarter that led to a 45-14 win for the Knights on a mild, sunny Saturday afternoon at Bishop D’Arcy Stadium on Kevin Donley Field.

The fourth-ranked Cougars ended an outstanding 11-1 season while the Knights (11-2) avenged a 45-42 loss to USF in early October. MU won its eighth consecutive game securing a turn to the NAIA FCS title game against defending champion

HEAD COACH/CHEER

The 2016-17 University of Saint Francis Cheer Squad is one of the most talented our program has yet to see. Cheering on Cougar Athletics at all home football and men’s and women’s basketball games is only part of our responsibility. Although we hope fans enjoy the showcase of tumbling, stunting and tosses — we also are a competitive team. Last season, after all of our athletes were deemed eligible through the NAIA, we competed against other NAIA cheer programs with great success. USF was one of 12 teams that qualified for the NAIA National Invitational and earned 5th place. To view any performance videos of our routines or performances, please visit the USF Cheer website link through www.saintfranciscougars. com. They are entertaining and fun to watch, and they show a caliber of skills much higher than what we are able to demonstrate during cheering at games.

Also, if you know of any (male and female) high school juniors, seniors or possible college transfers who may be interested in joining our program here at the University of Saint Francis, please encourage them to get in contact with us!

DONLEY

Just Two Years...

That’s all the time it took for Kevin Donley to take a collegiate football program from scratch at the University of Saint Francis and turn it into not only a winner, but a conference champion and perennial NAIA Top 25 team the last 17 years.

Donley enters the Cougars 19th football season in 2016 as the winningest football coach in NAIA history leading the NAIA record book with 289 career wins, 175 in 18 seasons guiding the Cougars. Inducted into the NAIA Hall of Fame (football) in January 2013, Donley came to Fort Wayne in 1997 with a vision of bringing not just collegiate football to the Summit City, but a national championship contending program. With the blessing of USF administration led by President Sister M. Elise Kriss, Donley quickly developed an exciting and winning collegiate football program recognized yearly at the national level.

Donley’s Cougars made him the winningest coach in NAIA history in 2013 and he leads the NAIA record book with 289 career wins, 175 in 18 seasons guiding the Cougars.

The “Founding Father” of collegiate football in Fort Wayne, Ind., Donley secured his and the program’s 100th win in the tenth game of the 2007 season, just the 121st game in program history and unofficially the fastest program ever to win 100 games in a program’s first 10 seasons in the fewest number of games.

He’s been a conference coach of the year 18 times, including MSFA Mideast League Coach of the Year 10 times including 2015.

Donley, who was inducted into the USF Athletic Hall of Fame in October 2008, has guided the Cougars to six unbeaten regular seasons and 13 consecutive winning seasons. USF won an unprecedented nine Mid-States Football Association Mideast League championships including eight straight, and has qualified for 14 NAIA Football Championship Series including a record tying 11 consecutive (1999-08). Donley guided USF to three consecutive NAIA National Championship runner-up finishes (2004-06). USF won its first 13 games of the season for three consecutive seasons, and Donley has been named National Coach of the Year twice (2004 NAIA; 2005 Schutt).

A 2004 inductee into the Georgetown College (near Lexington, Ky.) Athletic Hall of Fame, Donley relished the challenge of developing a collegiate football program from scratch starting in April 1997. Along with a savvy, hardworking staff of assistant coaches, the Cougars wasted no time delivering Fort Wayne-region collegiate fans with football thrills as the only collegiate football program in Fort Wayne. USF may have taken its lumps in 1998, but in 1999 Donley guided the Cougars to their first conference title and NAIA FCS berth. USF has been a perennial NAIA Top 25 team for 17 of the last 19 seasons.

Donley saw Fort Wayne, northeastern Indiana and northwestern Ohio as an untapped source of quality football talent, and he expected success. A Springfield, Ohio native, Donley has led his teams to 18 conference titles. He is No. 2 on the list of active college coaches at all levels and became just the 20th college coach to reach the 250 career wins plateau in 2011.

An Indiana Football Hall of Fame inductee (June 2005), Donley has an overall career coaching record of 289-128-1 (.693) after completing his 37th season in 2015 with an 11-1 record.

He also has a .745 winning percentage (278-95-1) in 33 NAIA seasons as a head coach and has delivered winning seasons in 23 of the last 24 seasons. In Donley’s 37 years as a head coach, 256 players have earned all-conference at USF, and 15 of his players have continued playing in the professional ranks at some level.

Donley was recognized for his contribution to the Fort Wayne community in June 2007 when he was named a “Red Coat Recipient” by Mad Anthony’s Charity Classic for Children, one of the most prestigious awards in Fort Wayne.

USF Head Coach Kevin Donley enters the 2016 season at No. 2 on the wins list of active college coaches at all levels and is No. 13 on the list of all college coaches with at least 250 career wins.

Anderson University (Ind.) is where Donley launched his coaching career after playing for the Ravens. He spent his first two seasons as offensive coordinator before being named the Ravens head coach in 1978. Though just 26, then the youngest head coach in the nation at any level, Donley made an immediate impact. In four seasons he compiled a 30-9 overall record. In 1981, he led the Ravens to a 9-2 record and they advanced to the NAIA II national playoffs. They also won Hoosier-Buckeye Collegiate Conference championships in 1980 and 1981.

Donley became the 25th head coach at Georgetown College in Georgetown, Ky., near Lexington, in 1982. GC had gone 14-24 the previous five seasons. After a 2-9 first season, GC went 73-34-1 the next 10 seasons. He directed GC to the 1991 NAIA II National Championship. Donley’s Tigers defeated perennial NAIA power Pacific Lutheran 28-20 to finish 13-1 in 1991. Donley was named 1991 NAIA National Coach of the Year. He left as the winningest coach in GC history with 75 career wins after his Tigers went 52-15-1 and won five Mid-South Conference titles in his last six seasons there.

Donley left Georgetown after the 1992 season to take over at NCAA Division II member California University of Pennsylvania, where he spent four seasons trying to revive a program that had fallen on hard times. He left the Vulcan program in April 1997 to accept the challenge at the University of Saint Francis.

Donley-coached teams have etched some impressive offensive records in his 26 seasons, including five national offensive records. His 1991 Georgetown team set national single-season offensive records for points per game (59.5), rushing touchdowns scored (69), total touchdowns (102), yards gained per play (7.0), most yards gained (7,580) and total offensive yards per game (541.4). His offensive teams have averaged 40.8 points per game. Donley owns the title of most points scored in a season (744) by any college team in the 20th century at all collegiate levels and earned a display in the College Football Hall of Fame in 1992.

As a player, Donley was a linebacker and fullback at Anderson College. He is a 1973 graduate of Anderson College with a bachelor’s degree in physical education.

Donley, 65, earned a master’s degree in education from Ball State in 1980 and served as Director of Athletics at USF for nearly eight years. He was named a Hilliard Gates Achievement Award winner in November 2004 by the Fort Wayne Sports Corporation.

Donley has two children, son Patrick and daughter Megan, and 11 combined grandchildren, and is married to Rita.
