2012 POSITION PREVIEWS

Building a program from the ground up can take time. Ohio Dominican’s football team, though, has accelerated the construction process with nu-merous successes in a short timeframe.

After the program’s inception in 2004, the Panthers ripped off winning seasons from 2006-09, highlighted by a 12-1 record and an NAIA playoff appearance in 2007. The transition to NCAA Division II and the GLIAC saw a slight delay in ODU’s development in 2010, but the Panthers roared back on track with a 7-4 record in 2011, including a 6-4 mark in conference play.

Overall, Ohio Dominican has a 42-22 record (.656 winning percentage) since 2006, and enters the 2012 season riding a wave of energy following its remarkable turnaround last year.

“We want to start the season with confi dence,” Bill Conley, ODU’s third-year head coach, said. “We believe that we can compete and have a chance to win every week. We’re getting physically stronger and faster and are earning a reputation as a solid team.”

ODU won its fi rst two games of 2011, dropped three straight, but recov-ered by winning fi ve of the fi nal six contests, including a win at nationally ranked Hillsdale and defeating regionally ranked Ashland and Indianapolis in the fi nal two contests of the season.

The improvements from the fi rst half of the season to the second half were stark. In ODU’s 2-3 start, the offense scored 25.2 points per contest and averaged 361.2 yards per game, while the defense surrendered 30.2 points per game and 451.4 yard per contest.

Over the fi nal six games? The Panther offense racked up 37.5 points and 396.8 yards per game, while the defense solidifi ed and held the opposi-tion to 24.8 points per game and 368.3 yards per contest.

“We had our highs and lows in 2011, but the second half was the turning point,” Conley said. “We think that will really springboard us into this season. The seniors were a tremendous inspiration – they were recruited as NAIA players but played their best as seniors at the Division II level.”

The challenge will be to replace that talented group of seniors that put ODU in the position to succeed, but the pieces are in place for the next phase of the football program’s development to continue.

Offensive Line

In 2011, Ohio Dominican’s offense set a school record by rushing for 2,329 yards and ranked amongst the GLIAC leaders in rushing yards and scor-ing per game. All of that offense was generated behind a veteran line, of which four starters return to lead the way for the Panthers again.

Seniors in left tackle Tyler White and center Andrew Carpenter an-chor the unit. Both earned all-conference accolades last season, and White (29 starts) and Carpenter (31) have plenty of experience up front.

“I think Andrew and Tyler are two of the best linemen in this confer-ence,” Conley said. “They’re tough, physical leaders who you want in the heat of the battle. Tyler played hurt last year and that was a huge inspiration for our team.”

Also back for ODU is senior right guard Zach Cook and junior right tack-le Jake Brandt. Cook has made 27 starts in his career and Brandt has

started all 21 contests in his career. The competition at left guard is open following the graduation of

Ben Vulhop, with Perrin Cunninghamand Gheon Selemon both impress-

ing coaches during the spring.

“My feelings are that you always win and lose with the guys you have up front,” Conley said. “They have to be on the same page, and communication is so key. Jake has

really matured, and Zach brings a lot to the table for us at right guard.”

Quarterbacks

Jeremy Fudge spent the past year and a half as the starting quarterback and excelled as arguably the top dual-

threat quarterback in the GLIAC last year, leading all QBs in rushing with 688 yards and 11 touchdowns while completing 62.7 percent of his passes for 1,702 yards and 12 scores.

His graduation has left a void behind center, though the Panthers have plenty of options to keep the league’s third-highest scoring unit on track in 2012. Leading the way is redshirt sophomore Mark Miller, who saw limited action but completed 5-of-7 passes for 120 yards and three touch-downs last season.

“Mark is similar to Jeremy in that they’re both very athletic, though Mark is probably a little bit quicker,” Conley said. “A lot of the productivity of the offense is going to depend on the quarterback play. We have some running backs with experience and a veteran offensive line, but we know we need to have a strong passing game as well. Those guys are young

2012 POSITION PREVIEWS

and they need game experience, but the potential is there for this unit.”

Also vying for playing time will be Kevin Hatrick, a junior college transfer who has thrown for over 2,000 yards and 19 touchdowns in his collegiate career, and incoming freshman Tyler Foster, who was the Canton Repository Player of the Year at McKinley High School.

“It will be exciting to watch all of these guys compete,” Conley said. “Kevin has a lot of experience at the junior college level, and Tyler has a great combination of being able to throw and run.”

Running Backs

Graduated senior Mike Noffsinger not only set nearly every rushing record in program history, he obliterated most. The 2011 Harlon Hill Trophy candidate as one of the top players in Division II last year has departed, as have his 2,714 career rushing yards, but the Panthers have a stable of running backs to step in and fi ll the void.

After missing last season, senior Mark Nicholsreturns and brings his big-play ability with him. From 2009-10, Nichols ran for 554 yards and averaged over six yards per carry while also serving as a threat in the kick return game.

Also back for the Panthers is junior Ronnel Spates, who rushed for 186 yards and three scores as Noffsinger’s primary backup last year, while redshirt freshman Kobi Cook will also vie for carries.

“We have a lot of depth at this position,” Conley said. “Mark has battled injuries but he’s incredibly fast and can kick it into a second gear. We’ve seen Ronnel in action for the past two years and he’s proven what he can do. Kobi is another guy who we redshirted last year that will be in the battle for carries. It’ll be more divided than last year when Mike got the bulk of the touches, but that will keep these guys fresher the entire season.”

Wide Receivers/Tight Ends

The Panthers’ top three pass catchers from 2011 have graduated, includ-ing All-GLIAC pick Tyler Purcell (58 catches, 778 yards, 7 TDs) and Bran-don Robinson (29 catches), so the challenge will be for a young, talented group to pick up the burden this season.

“Losing Tyler and Brandon hurts because they were steady, dependable players who ran great routes and you could count on for yards after the

catch,” Conley said.

Senior Tyler Maddox brings the most experience to the wideouts, having played in all 21 games the past two years. The 6-3 receiver has 50 catches for 563 yards and four touchdowns in his career.

Joining Maddox on the outside is sophomore Casey Williams, who had 11 grabs in his rookie campaign, while classmates Abe Johnson and Cam Lewis will also have chances on the fi eld. Redshirt freshmen Ronald Mc-Cloud and Dez Stewart are also in the mix for playing time, while trans-fer Nick McKnight from Bowling Green has impressed coaches as well.

“Tyler Maddox is a solid football player who is a leader on this team and has great hands,” Conley said. “Casey has a chance to be a special wide receiver because of his speed and leaping abilities, and Abe and Cam are guys in the slot that can contribute. Nick had an outstanding spring, and with his hands and ability to go up and get the football, he can excel in the system.

Ronald and Dez also impressed in the spring and have big play potential.”

ODU brings back a pair of tight ends with experience in senior Andy Mick and

junior Nate Weeks. Mick, at 6-4, 215, presents more of a threat in the receiving game, while Weeks, who is 6-3, 230, functions more in the H-Back slot.

“Andy and Nate are a great combi-nation between being able to block

and also as threats in the receiving game,” Conley said. “They help give us a

more balanced attack.”

Defensive Line

The graduation of defensive end Joe Richter (38 tackles, 7.5 for loss) hurts, but the Panthers return plenty of experience on the defensive front line, including three players with starting experience in Eli Kovach, Vince German and Tyrone Patel.

Kovach, an all-conference selection a year ago, was amongst the GLIAC lead-ers in tackles for loss with 10.5, and the senior will be counted on again to lead ODU. German made three starts and had 23 tackles, while Patel started seven games as a true freshman and fi nished with 40 stops.

“This is defi nitely a position where you need depth, and I think we have it this year,” Conley said. “With the no huddle offenses, you need fresh bod-ies. Eli is one of our captains who can play inside and outside, and he gives great effort every play – he never takes a play off. Vince and Tyrone are also disruptive inside, and Ian Smercina is another guy who will be in the

10 http://www.ohiodominicanpanthers.com • 2012 Ohio Dominican Football Information Guide • facebook.com/ODUAthletics

rotation at defensive tackle.”

ODU has several players who can swing between both tackle and end, including Kovach and senior Ben Patterson. On the outside, Ohio State transfer Keith Wells has the potential to make an immediate impact, as should redshirt freshman Di’Andre Harrison. Several of the incoming freshmen will also have the chance to contribute right away.

Linebackers

Conley said the team is looking for versatility out of the linebacker posi-tion, and the Panthers have plenty of players who are eager to make their marks at this spot.

Leading the returners is senior middle backer Kevin Guthrie, who fi n-ished with 66 tackles a season ago and broke up fi ve passes. He’s made 129 tackles in 23 career contests for ODU.

“Kevin has been a workhorse for us the past few years,” Conley said. “He brings great effort, he’s reliable and he’s tough.”

Flanking Guthrie in various combina-tions will be several talented re-turners in sophomore Martavi-us Lewis, senior Matt Grieb, sophomore Nikko Tanksley and senior Mark Markakis. Also in the mix is redshirt fresh-man Warren Shields.

“Martavius has contributed on special teams and linebacker and he’s a physical guy who just wants to hit some-thing every play,” Conley said. “Matt is the type of player who can play against the pass and the run. Nikko is a physical player who attacks the football and has quick reactions on the fi eld. Warren redshirted last year and is a tall, rangy player who can go from sideline to sideline and cause big plays. Mark is another player who can work both inside and outside and contribute on special teams. He gives up his body on every play.”

Defensive Backs

The most experienced unit on the defensive side of the football is in the backfi eld, as a group that made a combined 41 starts last season returns to anchor the secondary.

ODU’s top two difference makers from 2011 are back in the form of senior corner/safety Eisen Hardy and junior corner Justin Bell. The two each made 93 tackles and had four interceptions apiece, while Bell also forced

three fumbles and recovered four, including one for a touchdown.

Joining that duo is senior safety Jeff White, who made 72 tackles last season and has 209 for his career, along with fi ve career picks and six forced fumbles. Junior Dominic Clegg and sophomore Cody Culbertson also earned starting experience last season, with Culbertson making 47 tackles and Clegg tallying 41 out of the safety position.

“This group has a lot of experience playing together,” Conley said. “Eisen is the fi eld general for us out there – he’s a crucial player, a guy you count on. Justin was a huge playmaker for us and Jeff is a hybrid safety who can cover and also is one of our toughest hitters. Cody and Dominic have both really improved and are reliable tacklers for us.”

Other contributors to the unit include sophomores DeWayne Clemmons and DeAndre Richardson, while redshirt freshman Da’Twane Harris also had a good spring and will compete for playing time.

Special Teams

Arguably the most reliable and best overall specialist in the GLIAC last year, Chris Vort-

kamp, has graduated, leaving a void in both the placekicking and punting roles. Vortkamp hit 10-of-11 fi eld goals, 41-of-43 PATs and had 13 punts of 50 yards or longer while earning fi rst team all-conference

honors.

ODU has one returning player to help fi ll that role in redshirt freshman Mi-

chael Snyder, a punter, while also bringing in a handful of incoming freshmen to audition for

the kicking jobs during fall camp.

The Panthers do bring back their long snapper in Tyler Hays, and most of their coverage units are back, including Bell, who led the team with 11 special teams tackles, along with Culbertson (10 tackles), sophomore Grant Jones (eight) and Clemmons (eight.)

“We have a number of freshmen coming in that we feel confi dent about,” Conley said. “Having Tyler back as our long snapper really helps that transi-tion because we do have some experience and cohesion in the unit.”

COACHES

Bill ConleyHead Coach

3rd Season

Bill Conley, the second head coach in the history of the Ohio Dominican football program, enters his third season guiding the Panthers. Conley brings a wealth of knowledge and experience both as a coach and as a nationally recognized recruiter to a team that has already shown success in its short history.

The 2011 campaign was another step forward in the strong tradition of the Panther football program as ODU fi nished with a 7-4 mark overall, placing in a tie for fi fth in the GLIAC. ODU closed the season with wins in fi ve of its fi nal six contests, including a defeat of nationally ranked Hillsdale and regionally ranked Ashland and Indianapolis. Conley was named the OhioCollegeFootball.com Division II Coach of the Year and running back Mike Noffsinger shattered ODU’s single-season and career rushing records while being named a semifi nalist for the Harlon Hill Trophy. Ten Panthers earned All-GLIAC awards, and off the fi eld, ODU led the nation with three Capital One CoSIDA Academic All-American honorees and also led the GLIAC with 39 academic all-conference selections.

In his fi rst season with ODU, Conley directed the Panthers to a pair of victories in GLIAC competition, with six players earning all-conference accolades following the season. Under his guidance, Noffsinger set a school single-season record for rushing yards and linebacker Vincent Vasquez set the school mark and led the conference in tackles.

Conley previously served as an assistant coach for legendary Ohio State University Head Coach Earle Bruce from 1984 to 1987. He then rejoined the coaching staff at OSU for a second stint, garnering national acclaim as an assistant coach and recruiting coordinator under Head Coaches John Cooper and Jim Tressel from 1992 to 2003.

During his 17 years as an assistant coach for the Buckeyes, Conley was consistently recognized as one of America’s top recruiters. His recruiting classes were constantly ranked among the top ten in the nation. He was selected by The Sporting News as one of the top fi ve college football recruiters in the country and was honored by ESPN as the No. 1 football recruiting coordinator in all of college football.

Over his coaching career, Conley has shown his versatility in the coaching profession by coaching linebackers, defensive ends, tight ends, and special teams. While at Ohio State, he was instrumental in developing a number of All-American and eventual NFL players such as Cris Carter, Thomas “Pepper”

Johnson, Chris Spielman, Mike Vrabel, Andy Groom and Mike Nugent, among others. Conley helped lead the Buckeyes to the 2002 National Championship game in a thrilling double overtime victory over Miami, as well as numerous bowl appearances in the Rose, Sugar, Cotton, Fiesta, Holiday, Hall of Fame and Outback Bowls.

After retiring from Ohio State in the spring of 2004, Conley served as a National Recruiting Analyst for ESPN and as a contributor and analyst for Columbus-area print and broadcast media. He was also a highly sought after motivational speaker and his book, Buckeye Bumper Crops, is a favorite among Buckeye and football fans alike. The book chronicles Conley’s exploits as a player, coach and recruiter for Ohio State. Buckeye Bumper Crops is a behind-the-scenes look at one of the most successful programs in college football.

Conley is an OSU graduate and played on two Big Ten championship teams, including the 1968 National Championship team under legendary Head Coach Woody Hayes. He earned a bachelor’s degree in Education from Ohio State and a master’s degree in Administration from Wright State University.

ODU held Tiffi n to minus-17 yards rushing, the best defensive effort by any GLIAC team in 2011. In the regular season fi nale, the Panthers forced three Indianapolis turnovers, the same amount the Greyhounds committed the entire season entering the game. Four Panther defenders garnered All-GLIAC honors, including Eisen Hardy, who was the GLIAC leader in passes defensed, and Justin Bell, who forced four fumbles, returning two for touchdowns, and had four picks.

In 2010, Bickel oversaw a unit that produced three honorable mention All-GLIAC selec-tions in Manju Jabbie, Jason McCurdy and Vincent Vasquez. McCurdy ranked among the conference leaders in interceptions with four, while Vasquez paced the GLIAC with 12.5 tackles per contest.

University OverviewOhio Dominican University is an accredited four-year liberal arts institution, founded in 1911 in the Catholic and Dominican traditions. The university has more than 3,100 students and offers undergraduate degrees in over 50 majors as well as six graduate degree programs. Ohio Dominican uses a student-centered approach, with a commitment to quality teaching and learning and a number of academic programs of distinction.

Academics are at the heart of everything done at Ohio Dominican University. Institutions of higher learning exist to provide education for their students, and that education starts in the classroom. It continues, of course, on athletic fi elds and in residence halls, in rehearsals and clubs, in the library and the lab, but it begins with the relationship between students and their instructors.

ODU’s mission is grounded in our identity as a Catholic and Dominican liberal arts institution. The University’s motto - To contemplate truth and share the fruits of that contemplation with others - serves as our guiding principle of teaching and learning. ODU’s core curriculum, taken by all students, focuses on seven learning outcomes that collectively identify the institution’s expectations for what all students will be able to be and do as Ohio Dominican graduates. Additionally, students complete a sequence of courses in one of 50 undergraduate major areas of study including those in the arts, sciences, and professions.

Led by a talented faculty dedicated to excellence in teaching and commit-ted to helping students learn, ODU’s student engagement model focuses on serving the whole student through personal attention and assistance in collaboration with the institution’s Division of Student Development. Ohio Dominican is fully accredited and offers academic programs at the baccalaureate and masters degree levels through fi ve divisions: Arts and Letters; Social and Behavioral Sciences; Mathematics, Computer and Natural Sciences; Business; and Education.

The University is signifi cantly expanding the level of on-campus student extracurricular activities and improving residential life. At the same time, Ohio Dominican has expanded its extracurricular offerings, providing a greater number of on-campus activities for both residential and commuter students. A central focus has been the addition of a new Student Center and expansion of athletic programs, which attract student athletes and non-athletes alike, and foster alumni participation.

Student organizations and activities at ODU offer events and activities that relate to areas of academic interest, student government, artistic perfor-mance, multicultural identity, media, athletic, social, honorary, religious and service organizations. Ohio Dominican student activities and events are open to all students.

Over the past 10 years, Ohio Dominican has followed an aggressive expansion plan for its facilities which include three new residence halls; additional sports and recreation facilities; development of Sunbury Road as a gateway to the campus; the new Bishop James A Griffi n Student Center and a new science facility, Battelle Hall.

The 2010 - 2011 academic year will be a special time for the institution as its students, faculty, staff, alumni, community leaders and friends celebrate the University’s Centennial anniversary. Although the University will mark its Centennial birthday on October 5, 2011 (Founder’s Day), the calendar of events will commence in October 2010 and will continue through June 2012.

The Centennial theme, A Century of Transforming Lives, refl ects ODU’s Dominican heritage, history and tradition. This celebration encourages the University community to refl ect upon the transformative effect that Ohio Do-minican has had on the lives its faculty, students, alumni, staff and friends.

Ohio Dominican is focused on becoming the preeminent Catholic institution of higher learning, providing quality programs in both the liberal arts and the professions, committed to the fundamental value of liberal education, and deeply rooted in its Dominican tradition. Ohio Dominican is known for its student-centered and innovative approaches to teaching and learning; its commitment to excellence in academic and co-curricular programs; its commitment to service and community responsibility; its outstanding cam-pus facilities and resources; its global outreach in response to educational needs; and its reputation for distinction in values-based higher education.

ODU Athletic Directory

UNIVERSITY DIRECTIONS/DIRECTORY

http://www.ohiodominicanpanthers.com • 2012 Ohio Dominican Football Information Guide • twitter.com/ODUAthletics 85

Panther Field: Football, Men’s and Women’s Soccer, Club Lacrosse

Ohio Dominican University continues to demonstrate progressive improve-ment to its athletic facilities with the addition of Panther Field. Built in 2004, our newest athletic facility is home to our football team and men’s and women’s soccer teams as well as our club level lacrosse team. To withstand the wear and tear of constant use, Panther Field is equipped with the latest in artifi cial surfaces, SprinTurf®. The fi eld has a seating capacity of 1,750 with a 42-foot press box located at the top of the home bleachers. Recent ad-ditions to Panther Field include bleachers on the guest side of the fi eld with a capacity of 500 and a building that houses a ticket offi ce, concession stand and restrooms. Lights were also recently added to the facility, an addition that makes Panther Field one of the fi ner facilities of its size in the Midwest. The new facility replaced ODU’s former natural grass soccer complex and is located next to Alumni Hall on the west side of campus.

Practice Field: Football, Men’s and Women’s Soccer, Club Lacrosse, Located next to Panther Field is an all-natural grass football fi eld where the teams practice for upcoming games. The fi eld is complete with yard hashes and fi eld goal posts, and soccer or lacrosse nets can be moved in to accommodate every club and varsity sport.

Alumni Hall: Men’s and Women’s Basketball, Volleyball

Opened in 1989, Alumni Hall has a seating capacity of 3,000 and is the home of the women’s volleyball and the men’s and women’s basketball teams. Alumni Hall was given a much needed renovation and expansion in 2009-10. One full-length basketball court was added, the hardwood was resurfaced, and bleachers were added to the far side of the court.

After the renovation all of the coaches now have an offi ce on the second fl oor of Alumni. There are also several rooms that coaches may utilize to review game tape, hold team meetings and meet with future and current Panthers. Some of the other amenities in Alumni Hall are four locker rooms, the Black and Gold Room, a spacious conference room, a refurbished weight room that is available to both students and student-athletes, and an athletic training room. Alumni Hall has the capability of accommodating three regulation size basketball and volleyball courts.

Panther Courts: Men’s and Women’s Tennis

Also on the grounds of the Ohio Dominican Sports Complex west side location are six regulation size tennis courts complete with lights. The courts were recently resurfaced with a blue Latex-ite® coating that resembles the courts that host the U.S. Open Championship. The tennis courts are enclosed with a green chain link fence to accommodate the Panther men’s and women’s tennis teams.

Panther Valley/Frank Damian Field: Baseball

First time visitors are pleasantly surprised by the hidden beauty of Panther Valley as they descend upon ODU’s prized baseball diamond. Sunken well below street-level and masked by plentiful trees, the only evidence of what awaits below is the echoing “ping” of aluminum bats meeting baseballs. The fi eld is complete with a batting cage, home bullpen beyond the left fi eld line

and a visitor bullpen along the right fi eld line. A recent addition to Panther Valley is a state-of-the-art scoreboard complete graphics and animatronics. Panther Valley has developed year-by-year to the point that it is now consid-ered one of the fi nest college baseball facilities in the country.

Panther Softball Field: Softball

Over the years Panther Softball Field has evolved into one of the nicest facili-ties in the state of Ohio. The brick dust fi eld is routinely praised by Panther opponents as the epitome of what a fi eld should be. With its dimensions of 210 to the corners and 225 to straight away center, this softball complex features enclosed dugouts, a scoreboard, bullpens beyond the left fi eld line, and an underground irrigation system.

Hitting Facility: Baseball and Softball

Located next to the softball fi eld is the hitting facility for both the baseball and softball teams. The hitting facility provides a place for both teams to re-fi ne their skills through the harsh Central Ohio weather. With the retractable nets, the hitting facility contains three batting cages complete with pitching mounds and pitching machines.

Panther Training Facility

Along with the addition of the new stadium in 2004, the Panthers added a 7,500 square foot training facility west of the main parking lot. The facility is equipped with the latest in hammer strength weight training equipment and ODU’s second athletic training room. Offi ces for athletic training personal are also located in the new facility.

Cumberland Trail Golf Club

The Panthers are fortunate to call Cumberland Trail Golf Club their home. The course, designed by Michael Hurdzan and Dana Fry, opened in 1999 and measures up to 7,205 yards from the back tees. Known for its excellent conditioning and diffi cult design, Cumberland Trail ranks fourth in Central Ohio among public golf courses, according to Mid Ohio Golfer, and received 3.5 stars from Golf Digest. The greens at Cumberland Trail are considered by many to be the fi nest in the Columbus area and challenge even the best putters. The ODU golf team has unlimited access to the facility which includes a driving range and large practice green.

Golf Practice Facilities

ODU golfers have the ability to practice year round at one of two practice facilities. Bridgeview Driving Range, located just 6 minutes from campus, serves as the outdoor practice facility during the Spring and Fall Grass tees, a large putting green, and an excellent short game practice area are just a few of the benefi ts available to our teams.

When the weather turns cold, ODU players practice at “The Dome”, the largest indoor driving range in Ohio. “The Dome” measures a full 90 yards from front to back and the indoor temperature is kept around 60 degrees. It provides the perfect environment for the golfers to improve during the cold winter months.

THE GLIAC

The Great Lakes IntercollegiateAthletic Conference (GLIAC),founded in 1972, has been aleader in the advancement andpromotion of intercollegiate ath-letics for men and women for40 years.

The charter members of theGLIAC were Ferris State Uni-

versity, Grand Valley State University, Lake Superior StateUniversity, Northwood University (then Institute), and SaginawValley State University.

Expansion of the GLIAC began immediately with the addition ofOakland University in 1974. Hillsdale College, Northern Michi-gan University, and Wayne State University were accepted asmembers in 1975. In 1977, the conference lost its first memberwhen Northern Michigan withdrew. Michigan TechnologicalUniversity filled the vacancy when it became a member in 1980.After the 1986-87 season, Northwood left the conference andwas replaced by Northern Michigan. Northwood rejoined theconference in 1992.

After the 1989 season, the conference dropped football as asponsored sport. The conference schools sponsoring footballjoined the members of the Heartland Collegiate Conference informing the football-only Midwest Intercollegiate Football Con-ference (MIFC), which began play in 1990.

After nine years as one of the premier conferences in DivisionII football, the MIFC merged as part of GLIAC on July 1, 1999.With the merger, the University of Indianapolis became anassociate member as a football-only school.

The GLIAC entered a new era in the 1995-96 school year. Priorto that time, all GLIAC member institutions were located in thestate of Michigan.

The GLIAC membership changed again when Tiffin Universityof Ohio joined the conference in the 2008-09 academic year.Tiffin was offered membership on June 20, 2007. The additionof Tiffin left the GLIAC with 12 full-time members as Gannonand Mercyhurst moved to the Pennsylvania State AthleticConference after the 2007-08 season.

The Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic ConferenceThe GLIAC entered a new era during the 2009-10 academicyear. Commissioner Tom Brown, who had presided over theleague for 17 years, retried on June 30, 2009. The longestserving commissioner in the history of the GLIAC, Brownexpanded the conference from 10 full members to 14 fullmembers and two associate members. Also under his leadership,the conference has grown to offering championships in 21sports while rising to prominence on the national level as GLIACteams and student-athletes have achieved success both in theclassroom and on the fields of play.

The Conference expanded on July 1, 2010 when Lake ErieCollege of Painesville, Ohio, and Ohio Dominican University,located in Columbus, joined the GLIAC. The League will furtherexpand on July, 2012 when Malone University and WalshUniversity, both located in the Canton, Ohio area, become the15th and 16th GLIAC members.

The Great Lakes IntercollegiateAthletic Conference began spon-soring football as a league sport inthe Fall of 1973 with three teams,Ferris State University, GrandValley State University, andNorthwood University. In 1974,Hillsdale College joined theleague as the fourth football team.The conference expanded again

in 1975 when Saginaw Valley State University started a footballprogram and Wayne State University joined the league. Thenumber of GLIAC football teams grew to seven in 1980 whenMichigan Tech University was added, though the Huskies leftthe league after the 1985 season. In 1987, Northwood left theleague and was replaced by Northern Michigan University.

After the 1989 season, the GLIAC dropped football as asponsored sport. The six conference schools sponsoring foot-ball, Ferris State, Grand Valley State, Hillsdale, NorthernMichigan, Saginaw Valley State, and Wayne State, joined thefive members of the Heartland Collegiate Conference, AshlandUniversity, Butler University, the University of Indianapolis,St. Joseph’s College, and Valparaiso University, in forming thefootball-only Midwest Intercollegiate Football Conference(MIFC), which began play in 1990.

The MIFC would change again for the 1993 season as twoteams would leave and two teams would join.

The league grew to 12teams in 1994 with the addition of Michigan Tech and stayed at 12 teams until St. Joseph’s left after the 1995 season. In 1998,

the league expanded to 14 teams with the additions of theUniversity of Findlay, Mercyhurst College, and WestminsterCollege, but would drop back to 13 teams with the departure ofSt. Francis after the season.

Westminster would depart after the 1999 season, leaving 12teams. Gannon University was added before the 2004 season,giving the league a 13-team roster.

After nine years of existence as one of the premier conferencesin Division II football, the MIFC merged as part of GLIAC on July1, 1999.
