Q u i c k fa c t s Coaches P l ay e r s 2010 Review opponents This is Sewanee
Tigers Look For a Fresh Start In 2011 Outlook Under first-year Head Coach Tommy Laurendine the “new look” Tigers will begin the 2011 season with a good mix of new and familiar faces. The Sewanee roster returns 40 letter winners from a year ago, which include five SCAC All-Conference selections from 2010 and the team’s leaders in receiving, passing, rushing, and tackles. The Tigers hope that returning experience will rub off on a young Sewanee squad that welcomes 32 freshmen to the Mountain. With the combination of youthful enthusiasm and veteran leadership Sewanee will look to a number of players to contribute to its success in 2011. “Heading into this season I’m very happy with how hard our kids have competed during all our practices,” said Laurendine. “We have a lot of confidence going into this season. If we can stay healthy I really expect our kids to surprise some teams as we move forward this fall. We’ve talked all year about what it’s going to take for us to build back this program. Sewanee has a great tradition and I want every one of our players, from the captains to the newcomers, to believe that they are a part of something bigger than just themselves.” Offense After running multiple offensive sets a year ago, Sewanee will enter its first contest running out of the Triple Option. “Overall, the players have bought into what we are trying to do on offense,” said Laurendine. “We are the type of offense that is going to keep possession, make first downs, and control the clock. We feel that if we can limit turnovers and keep our ground game moving, we are going to have a chance to wear teams down by the fourth quarter.” Sewanee will bring a mix of veteran seniors and young newcomers into its new formation. Up front the Tigers will look to a number of freshman to make an impact along with seniors Andrew Taylor and Andrew Gordon at the right 4|
tackle position. Also returning along the front five is sophomore center Connor Lewis, sophomore Jake Fojtick at right guard, along with senior Max Jones. All upperclassmen will be relied on heavily with a pair of freshmen Brandon Miller and Tanner Potts anchoring the remaining left guard and left tackle spots. Behind the men in the trenches, Sewanee returns sophomore quarterback Lee Schurlknight and senior fullbacks Sergio Acosta and Zeke Wilson. A season ago Schurlknight led the Tigers in total offense with 1,089 combined yards, while Wilson earned all-conference honors after rushing for a team-best 621 yards and three touchdowns. “Our offense is centered around the positions that Sergio, Zeke, and Lee play,” said Laurendine. “All three have had a great camp this August. With Lee being a young QB I’m glad we have a lot of senior-led players like both our fullbacks who will be able to lead this new system as we move forward.” Also in the backfield for the Tigers will be returning running backs junior Jase Brooks and senior Ben Cleveland. Both ball carriers had an impressive first month of practice and should see a significant amount of touches this fall. Even with the Sewanee offense going with more of a ground attack this season, the Tigers will still have plenty of options to spread opposing defense out through the air. The Tigers return a number of receivers including sophomore Chad Morehead, who led Sewanee in 2010 with team-best 25 catches for 201 yards. Defense On the defensive side of the ball first-year defensive coordinator Brian Newberry will hope to utilize the Tigers’ speed in his new 3-4 scheme. With Sewanee lacking some size up front, the Tigers will look to defensive ends Will Law who earned second-team all-conference honors a season ago —
and freshman David Garcia to improve on the Sewanee’s 11 sacks in 2010. At the linebacker position, the Tigers are highlighted by a pair of strong defenders, in junior J.P. Bordeaux and senior Zac Atkins. Both players combined for 155 tackles and four fumble recoveries a year ago. “J.P. and Zac are the leaders of our defense,” said Laudendine. “Like our offense we are a little young up front so I we expect our linebackers to make good fundamental tackles when they get to the ball.” In the secondary, the Tigers return first-team all-conference safety Alfonzo Knight who will look to lead the defensive backs again. A year ago, Knight led the Tigers with team-best 101 tackles and four interceptions. Opposite of Knight will be junior safety Murphy Walters, who saw significant playing time a year ago. Anchoring the corner positions for the Tigers will be freshman De’Nard Ford and junior JD Crabtree. Crabtree returns after a strong sophomore season in which the first-year starter totaled 58 stops and three pass breakups. On the other side, Ford earned the starting nod after impressing coaches early in camp with his quickness and natural playmaking abilities. Special Teams After losing two-time all-conference kicker Geoffrey Marolda, the Tigers will now look to junior Trey Knighton for its field goal and extra point duties. Knighton enters the season with little experience, however the third-year Arab, Ala., native had a strong showing during the teams three weeks of practice and first scrimmage. The strength of the special team play should be in the host of returners that the Tigers return this fall. Senior Ben Cleveland — who led the Tigers with 364 kickoff return yards last season — will share duties with junior Jase Brooks, as well as sophomores Chad Morehead, Chuck Winfield, and Parks Kingery.

About the SCAC The Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference (SCAC), now in its 21st year, was formed under its present name on April 25, 1991. SCAC: The SCAC currently has 12 member institutions in eight states: Sewanee, Centre (Danville, Ky.), Rhodes (Memphis, Tenn., originally known as Southwestern), DePauw University (Greencastle, Ind.), Hendrix (Conway, Ark.), Millsaps College (Jackson, Miss.), Oglethorpe (Atlanta, Ga.), Austin College (Sherman, Texas), Colorado College (Colorado Springs, Colo.), Southwestern University (Georgetown, Texas), Trinity University (San Antonio, Texas), and Birmingham-Southern College (Birmingham, Ala.). In June, 2010, DePauw announced it will leave the SCAC for the North Coast Athletic Conference effective July 1, 2011, for all sports except football. They will join football in the NCAC effective July 1, 2012. The SCAC is governed by the chief executive officers of the member institutions and sponsors championships in 20 sports, 10 for men and 10 for women. The group is known as the Board of Directors, which meets twice a year and is ultimately responsible for all policies of the SCAC. Beginning: The league was originally founded as the College Athletic Conference (CAC) on Sept. 1, 1962 by five southern institutions having similar backgrounds and athletic interests. CAC Charter Members: Sewanee (Tenn.); Centre College (Ky.); Southwestern (Tenn.); Washington University (Mo.); Washington & Lee (Va.) NCAA Div. III: The 12 SCAC institutions are all Division III members of the
20 |
CAC/SCAC Football Champions National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) and abide by the Division III requirement of not awarding scholarships for athletic ability. All financial aid received by student-athletes is needbased or merit-based scholarships. Purpose: The SCAC was formed to foster participation in sports “solely because of interest in and enjoyment of the game.’’ The member institutions encourage organized competition in intercollegiate sports among teams representative of their respective student bodies. They also underscore the essential worth of athletics within the framework of a liberal arts education. Championships: The SCAC sponsors championships in 20 sports, with 10 for men and 10 for women. Railroad Bell: Conference supremacy is determined each April by awarding points to each institution, based on how each school finishes in the standings of the 20 championship sports. The symbol of conference supremacy is a 300-pound railroad bell which was donated by the Norfolk and Western Railway. The bell, known as the “President’s Trophy,” is a traveling award and goes to the school with the best overall sports record (based on the points standings) for the year. The University of the South won the Railroad Bell in 1976 (co-winner) and 1980. Administration: The SCAC is administered by commissioner Dwayne Hanberry who maintains the league office in Suwanee, Ga.

The strong football rivalry of SewaneeRhodes dates back to 1899, but since 1954 the two Tennessee schools have battled each fall for possession of the Edmund Orgill Trophy. Edmund Orgill (1899-1983), who appropriately was born the year the crossstate rivalry began, had close ties to both schools. He was a trustee of Rhodes and the chairman of the Board of Regents at Sewanee, 1951-53. A 1920 graduate of Virginia, Mr. Orgill received honorary degrees from Rhodes and Sewanee in 1954. He was elected mayor
of Memphis in 1956. Trophy Inscription: The Edmund Orgill Trophy is presented annually by Southwestern of Memphis and the University of the South at Sewanee to the winner of each year’s football game as evidence of their esteem for and gratitude to a man whose benefactions to them are measureless. Initiated on November 13, 1954. (Note: Rhodes was called Southwestern until 1984). Rhodes won that inaugural game in November of 1954 in Memphis and each team has had a six-game win streak. The record is 27-29-1 in favor of Rhodes in the Orgill Trophy series, and Sewanee leads the overall rivalry, 41-35-3.

Hardee, an officer in the Confederate Army. Best known as “Ug’’ McGee, the Greenville, Miss., native was a 1949 Sewanee graduate and a devoted alumnus, athlete, regent, and trustee.

McGee Field on the 13,000-acre Sewanee campus in southern middle Tennessee is the South’s oldest college football field (among NCAA schools) in its original location and the fourth oldest in the country. Open for business on Nov. 7, 1891, Sewanee lost that first home game with intra-state rival Vanderbilt (22-0), but overall has won 65% of its games (258-148-11) in 116 seasons before the home folks on Tennessee’s Cumberland Plateau. Along the way, the Tigers have constructed 49 perfect seasons and posted 128 shutouts at McGee Field. The first 50 years (1891-1940) on the Mountain produced an impressive slate of 106-15-9 (85.0%). Within that first half century was a near perfect run of 51-0-4 from 1894-1913, including 32 straight wins (1901-1911), with Georgia, Tennessee, and Mississippi State among the fallen foes. A 7-6 loss to Georgia in 1914 barely slowed the Tigers as they were 29-4-3 at home the next 12 years. Now 60 years removed from its last battle with a major college foe — a 6-0 home loss to Fla. State; Oct. 22, 1949 — Sewanee is still winning at home at the NCAA Division III level. A charter member of the Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference, the Tigers’ “home field advantage’’ has been a catalyst for 12 small college conference titles, including three in the past 20 years, the most recent in 2000. While McGee Field is tops in seniority South of the Mason Dixon Line — Georgia Tech’s Grant Field, built in 1913, is second on the list — a trio of NCAA Division III New England schools known as “the Little Three’’ took to the gridiron before Sewanee. Originally known as Hardee Field — re-named McGee Field at Homecoming 1977 — the home turf has been the setting for fall afternoon heroics of 38 All-Americans and a trio of future Hall of Famers. The three hall of fame inductees — Diddy Seibels,

From the opening pitch of the first Sewanee varsity baseball game in 1875 to the success of our current varsity athletes, teams, and coaches, the rich sports heritage of the University is known nationwide. With a long list of undefeated teams, All-Americans, and national scholarathletes, Sewanee continues its impressive athletic accomplishments into the 21st century. One of the highest honors for those who represent the varsity athletics program is induction in the Sewanee Athletics Hall of Fame. The Hall of Fame’s purpose is to give lasting recognition to those individuals and teams who have made exceptional contributions to the achievements and prestige of the University in the field of athletics and who have continued to demonstrate in their lives the values imparted by intercollegiate athletics. The reward of competition through sports, the importance of good sportsmanship, and the desire to succeed through hard work, discipline, and teamwork, have proven to be of value in the lives of the men and women who represent Sewanee varsity athletics. 2010 1953-54 Cross-Country Team 1963 Football Team Jennifer Bulkeley Staats Billy Cunningham Frank Greer Hank Haynes Mary Missbach Dressler

Q u i c k fa c t s Coaches
The Iron Men of 1899 “While there are some who would swear to the contrary, I did not see the 1899 Sewanee football team play in person. Winning five road games in six days, all by shutout scores, has to be one of the most staggering achievements in the history of the sport. If the Bowl Championship Series (BCS) had been in effect in 1899, there seems little doubt Sewanee would have played in the title game. And they wouldn’t have been done in by any computer ratings.”

Described by some football analysts as one of the best teams ever, the undefeated 1899 Sewanee football team is accorded that lofty ranking, not just for its 12-0 record, but for its mid-season train ride into history. A remarkable five wins in six days — all on the road and all by shutouts against Southern powers — has placed this Sewanee team in an elite class. Preceding football legends such as the Four Horsemen of Notre Dame of the 1920s, Fordham’s Seven Blocks of Granite of the 1930s and LSU’s Chinese Bandits of the late 1950s, the Iron Men have written their own place in gridiron history. The men of Sewanee proudly carried the school’s banner that fall and the “S’’ on their purple jerseys was as familiar to opponents from North Carolina to Texas as Superman would be in the mythical city of Metropolis a half century later. But far from comic book super heroes, the “Iron Men” of Sewanee posted some legendary wins against those Southern opponents that fall.
