The success of Golden Hawks football lies in the role it plays as part of the ethos of the University. For five decades, the team has been a shining success for Wilfrid Laurier, rallying students, alumni, staff and faculty in a shared passion for the pursuit of excellence and achieving our vision of creating lives of leadership and purpose .
The Fall of 2012 marked a season of change as last November, Head Coach Gary Jeffries stepped down after 31 years of service with our basketball and football programs, highlighted by his team’s 2005 Vanier Cup win in men’s football . On behalf of the many student-athletes and student-leaders he influenced within the Athletics and Recreation program we thank him sincerely for the difference he made.
After a national search, a new leadership team was established to carry on Laurier’s tradition as a nationally recognized high performance program .
In January, Michael Faulds was named the new Manager of Football Operations and Head Coach .
To improve is to change, to achieve excellence, to strive for perfection, you need to embrace change . Coach Faulds and his new staff of quality coaches have made significant changes to ensure Laurier football is back to a national calibre high performance program . To assist Coach Faulds in his vision will require your continuing support and contributions as students, sponsors and community . I sincerely appreciate your loyalty and dedication to all those who have generously given to the football program in the past . Every athletic team requires financial support . For those of you who wish to make future donations to the program I assure you that you will be part of rebuilding Laurier into a top football program in Canada .
See you in the stands! Go Hawks!
Peter Baxter M .A .Director of Athletics & Recreation
Wilfrid Laurier University
As we prepare to start the new academic year, we also mark the start of a new season for our Golden Hawks football team – one that I know will be a shining example of leadership and purpose .
The leadership team of new head football coach, Michael Faulds, and his strong coaching staff has a vision for the future of the Golden Hawk football program that will certainly inspire our student-athletes, both on and off the field.
Equally inspiring is the generous support of our alumni, donors and partners . Your contributions are helping to provide an exceptional experience for our student-athletes – one that strengthens our athletic traditions and helps breathe strength into the Laurier family as a whole . I sincerely thank you .
In addition to the determination of the coaches and athletes, and the program’s strong supporters, the success of the Golden Hawks football program lies in the role it plays in rallying students, alumni, staff and faculty in a shared passion for our team and for our university .
We hope to see that continued enthusiasm throughout the 2013 football season, including the Homecoming game Sept . 28 at Laurier’s Waterloo campus .
I look forward to joining you in the stands as we cheer on the team . Go Hawks Go!

It was an up-and-down season for the Golden Hawks in 2012 . The team lost their opening two games of the year but bounced back with two wins to even their record going into their annual Homecoming game. Taking on a tough Guelph squad, the young Hawks battled with the eventual Yates Cup finalists but came up just short, losing 22-19. After a shutout win against Waterloo, Laurier held on to the sixth and final playoff spot despite season-ending losses to Western and McMaster. Heavy underdogs heading into their playoff game on the road against Queen’s, an inexperienced squad lost out to the host Gaels who ended the Hawks’ playoff hopes for the second consecutive season .
Following a change in the head coaching position during the offseason that saw Gary Jeffries step down and Michael Faulds handed the reins, the purple and gold are ready for a fresh start . A large recruiting class will join an already young roster but Coach Faulds has promised throughout training camp that no team will outwork this year’s edition of the Golden Hawks . Each and every position is open for the taking and that internal competition has the team feeling confident as they prepare for the eight games that awaite them in the OUA schedule . With many teams across the league facing uncertainty, including the conference’s newest entrant, the Carleton Ravens, many playoff positions are wide open. With so many questions facing their competition, Coach Faulds and his squad have their sights firmly set on clinching one of the six available spots at the conclusion of the year .
Let’s now take a closer look at how the Hawks stack up across the board by position:
OFFENCEQuarterbackReturning: Julien John, James Fracas, Eric MorelliDepartures: Travis Eman, Steve FanthamRookies: Michael Knevel
For the second consecutive season, the role of the team’s starting quarterback is wide open. After the departures of both Steve Fantham and Travis Eman, who combined to start all nine of the Hawks games in 2012, incumbents James Fracas and Julien John have the inside track on earning the number one role . Fracas has the luxury of seeing time on the field last year and performing well
when he did . As for John, throughout camp he has demonstrated a strong arm that has the ability to keep the Hawks offence moving. However, keep an eye out for Michael Knevel if either of these two falter . The Brantford native has the size and ability to push both Fracas and John as he gets more experience in practice .
Running BacksReturning: Issac Dell, Rashad LaTouche, Tyrrel Wilson, Dillon Campbell, Eric Guiltinan, Darian RamDepartures: Josh Pirie, Wylie Phillips, Kwasi Kwajah, Devante WrayRookies: Chucks Okafor, Jude Armson, Nick Rempel
One area that the Hawks can feel confident is in the experience of their running backs . Five players who have filled the role in the past are back for this season, led by CFL Draft Pick Isaac Dell, as well as East West Bowl participant Tyrrel Wilson . Between those two, along with LaTouche, Campbell and Guiltinan, Coach Faulds has numerous options in terms of who will start on any given day . Add in the fact that incoming rookie Chucks Okafor has looked very strong in camp, Laurier’s running game appears to be stronger than it has in the past couple of years .
ReceiversReturning: Greg Nyhof, Lance Freeman, Kelvin Muamba, Braden Sartori, Scott Campbell, Marco Michetti, Ethan Loft, Mack Thompson, Craig YeboahDepartures: Alex Anthony, Anton
Bennett, Russ Jirgens, Karsten Beney, Matthew Digout, Mark Vander DoelenRookies: Marcus Arkarakas, Anthony Pizzuti, Anthony Powless, Nick Adjei, Daniel Bennett, Tudor Bertiean, Jake Gassler, Colin Hall, Nathaniel Rouse
Laurier’s receiving core suffered a big blow when Alex Anthony announced that he was going to stay on with the team that drafted him in 2013, the Saskatchewan Roughriders . Combined with the fact that the team lost three others starters from the 2012 squad, things weren’t looking good for Coach Faulds and his offence. However, the group that showed up to camp has been impressive and showed off their skill in the team’s scrimmage with Waterloo. Veterans Greg Nyhof, Kelvin Muamba and Scott Campbell all performed well while rookie Marcus Arkarakas and transfer Anthony Pizzuti both showed they have what it takes to play right away . If the unit can gel quickly, they should give the quarterbacks plenty of options in

Offensive LineReturning: Jeremy Deneau, Michael Massel, Luis Aranguren, Joe Cortese, Richard Davidson, Mike Malanda, Marcus Nese, Zach Scotto, Delbert Williams, Jackson Yanchus Departures: Brent Wilson, Owen MacWilliams, Ryan Traynor, Bradley Berry, Ryan Hamilton, Jeffrey VanierRookies: Edward Cadougan, Luke Reeves, Chad Harwood, Ramiro Castro, Matt Davidson, Chris Reddy, Brock Vandermeer
One area of particular focus for Coach Faulds and recruiting coordinator Dwayne Cameron in the off-season was on the offensive line. An area where the Hawks struggled in 2012, the coaching staff added seven players to the roster with three in particular who stand out including Edward Cadougan, Luke Reeves and Chad Harwood . Those three will join a group that includes East West Bowl participants Jeremy Deneau and Michael Massel . With the addition of two-time CFL All-Star Irv Daymond to the coaching staff, look for the offensive line to steadily improve over the course of the year .
DEFENCEDefensive LineReturning: Ese Mrabure-Ajufo, Asante Mizan, Mark Fidani, Warren Gilmore, Tommy Griffiths, Kyle Lees, Eric McCallum, Mike Nagy, Departures: Ben Ivany, Alex Brouwers, Dale Egan, Richard Ochran, Sydney Odum, Rookies: Kwaku Boateng, Alex Casella, Brett Golding, Emerson Gourdet, Eric McCormick, Jalen Price, Andrew Richards, Taylor Smith
While many positions are open for grabs in 2013, the defensive line is one that is not . Returning starters Ese Mrabure-Ajufo and Asante Mizan have joined with Tommy Griffiths and Warren Gilmore to form a formidable front four that has been very strong in camp under the guidance of former NFL Draft Pick Anthony Cannon. Throw in the fact that one of the Hawks top recruits Kwaku Boateng is waiting in the wings, this is a group that will look to improve upon its fourth ranked run defence this season .
LinebackersReturning: Chris Ackie, Sam Montazeri, Jesse Collins, Zac Hoare, Thomas Majka, Caolan NewbroughDepartures: Mitchell Bosch, Drew Galpin, Nick Sapone, Patrick Bishop, Eric Juhl, Andrew McWhinnie, Kyle Swanson, Michael Webb
Rookies: Shalmar Walters, Nakas Onyeka, Dustin Boley, Brandon Calver, Nic Constantin, Stuart Smith, Derek Vos
The hardest hit area in terms of graduation is Laurier’s linebacking core. All three starters from last year have left, including the Hawks all-time leading tackler in Mitchell Bosch . In their place, the Hawks will look to converted safety Chris Ackie to lead a young group that will also feature Sam Montazeri and Jesse Collins, who returns after a year off due to injury. A number of rookies will also push for playing time including Shalmar Walters and Nakas Oneyka at what should be a position that features some of the stiffest internal competition this year .
Defensive BacksReturning: Felix Odum, Tanner Philp, Austin Reusch, Jordan Schulz, Ben Millar, Nicolas Therrien, Richard Vu
Departures: Carlos Naranjo, Joshua Fritz, Sean O’Neill, Jeffrey St. Louis, Jacob WebsterRookies: Taylor Calverley, Ronald Kinga, William Pitt-Doe, Oren Bell, James Lawson, Jordan Samek, Austin Spilatro, John Stylianou, Cordelle, Walden
Although this is another group that will be young in age, a large portion of the returning players gained invaluable experience playing big roles last season . Included in that group are team Rookie of the Year Tanner Philp as well as Austin Reusch and Jordan Schulz . A number of incoming rookies will also push for playing time as the likes of Taylor Calverley, William Pitt-Doe and Ronald Kinga all come in as highly-touted recuits . Leading this dynamic group will be Felix Odum who enters his last season in the
purple and gold .
SPECIAL TEAMSKickersReturning: Ronnie PfefferDepartures: Christopher Fanelli, Charles SmithRookies: Alessandro Arghittu
The special teams unit struggled as a whole for the Hawks in 2012 as kicker Ronnie Pfeffer was forced into rushing for yards on numerous times to offset a struggling group. However, Pfeffer and incoming rookie Alessandro Arghittu feel good heading into 2013. Pfeffer, an OUA Second Team All-Star in his rookie year, will look to return to that form as he will see the bulk of the playing time .

C OAC H I N G S TA F F
Michael Faulds enters his first season as head coach and offensive coordinator for the Golden Hawks . The sixth head coach in the 52 year history of Laurier’s football program, Faulds was hired on January 8, 2013 to succeed Gary Jeffries, who stepped down following the 2012 season . Despite being a head coach for the first time in his career, Faulds brings to Laurier an already impressive resume that includes numerous accomplishments as
both a coach and a player . He joins the Hawks after serving the previous three seasons as the offensive coordinator for the York Lions. In that position, he masterminded the rapid succession of a York program that went from 26th to seventh in the country in yardage per game . In his final season with the Lions in 2012, York ranked third overall in the OUA in both passing and total yards per game using a no-huddle, pro-style offence. Faulds has also been successful as a coach on the international stage. In 2012, he served as the quarterback coach for Team
Canada at the International Federation of American Football (IFAF) U19 World Championship, helping guide the team to a 23-17 victory over the heavily-favoured American squad in the gold medal game . He reprised the role this past February when he coached Team World at the International Bowl in Austin, Texas . His path into coaching is grounded in a stellar career as a player at both the CIS and international level . A graduate of Western University with both a Bachelor of Arts and Master of Kinesiology, specializing in coaching, Faulds is the owner of two of the most prestigious records in CIS history, including the CIS all-time passing record of 10,811 yards as well as the single season passing record of 3,033 yards, which he set in 2009 . That same season he also was named the OUA Most Outstanding Player while guiding the Mustangs to the Yates Cup . He also earned Yates Cup MVP honours in both 2007 and 2008 after leading Western to the OUA championship . Outside of the CIS, Faulds had a decorated career with Team Canada, serving as the U19 quarterback on three occasions, including 2000, 2002 and 2003 . He also guided Canada to a silver medal at the IFAF Senior World Championship in Austria in July, 2011 . Faulds and his wife Stacey live in Kitchener .
MICHAEL FAULDS MANAGER OF FOOTBALL OPERATIONS & HEAD COACH
Dwayne Cameron is entering his eighth season as a coach with the Golden Hawks . After having previously served as a defensive assistant and as the defensive backs coach, Cameron has been handed additional duties with Laurier this season and is now in charge of the special teams as well as all recruiting actitivies . Cameron first joined the Hawks in 2004 and was responsible for managing the defensive backs during Laurier’s two Yates Cup wins in 2004 and 2005 as well as the 2005 Vanier Cup . Following the 2009 season, Cameron left
Laurier when he was hired as an assistant coach for special teams and defence by the CFL’s Hamilton Tiger-Cats . Cameron served the role for two seasons under head coach Marcel Bellefeuille before returning to the Hawks in 2012 . Since being handed the reins for recruiting for Laurier, Cameron has dramatically changed the program’s philosophy, implementing signing ceremonies at each recruits high school, making each signing an event for the prospective Golden Hawk .
DWAYNE CAMERON SPECIAL TEAMS & RECRUITING COORDINATOR
Ron Vanmoerkerke is entering his 14th year coaching with the Golden Hawks . He returns again to the role of Defensive Coordinator, a position he has held since the 2003 season . In the offseason, he was also given the title of Associate Head Coach after the addition of Michael Faulds as Head Coach . Ron’s track record with Laurier is a long and storied one; he played in the late 80’s and was on the 1987 Yates Cup championship team . In 1988, Ron received the Laurier Alumni Association Academic and Athletic Achievement Award . In 1989, Ron was named an OUA first-team all-star
linebacker and team MVP . At present, Ron is a teacher and the Department Head of Social Science at Eastwood Collegiate High School in Kitchener . Prior to becoming the Defensive Coordinator with the Hawks, Ron was the Head Coach at Eastwood and Galt Collegiate . Ron lives with his wife Karen and their daughter Grace and son Austin in West Montrose .

Continuing a tradition that has held strong for the past couple of years, the 2013 Golden Hawk Hall of Fame induction class is well represented by former members of the football team . Since 2010, eight players and one team have all seen their names etched into history and this year, three more will join the group representing football that is now 49 players and seven teams strong . Joining this historic group of athletes will be Brian Devlin, Anthony Maggiacomo and Scott Evans .
Devlin was a kicker for the Golden Hawks from 2003 until 2005 and is best known for being the player who helped clinch Laurier its second Vanier Cup title when he kicked the game-winning field goal against Saskatchewan . A two-time Yates Cup Champion,
Devlin was honoured as a CIS Second Team All-Canadian in 2005 as well as earning both first and second team OUA All-Star awards the same season for both his place kicking and punting abilities . Despite playing for just three seasons with the Hawks, Devlin ranks fourth all-time for career kickoff yards and seventh all-time for career punting yards .
Maggiacomo suited up for Laurier from 2003 until 2007 as a linebacker . Also a member of the Golden Hawks 2005 Vanier Cup championship squad and a two-time Yates Cup winner, he produced one of the best defensive performances in team history in his final year at Laurier .

Evans was an offensive lineman for the Golden Hawks between 2003 and 2008 .

Come the 2013 season, fifth-year fullback Isaac Dell will represent the Wilfrid Laurier Golden Hawks one last time . After a stellar four years with the Hawks, dating back to his freshman year in 2009, Dell will suit up in the purple and gold for his remaining season of eligibility with an impressive resume and a handful of leadership . However, the humble fullback believes his best example of direction comes when he
has the ball in his hands . “I just try to lead by example with my actions on the field, not so much vocally, but I feel like there are other people on the field that do well with that, so we kind of have both ends covered,” he said . Dell began his football career at Stamford Collegiate in his hometown of Niagara Falls, Ont ., playing all four years for the Hornets . In 2008, Dell helped lead the Hornets to their first undefeated regular season in 20 years, where Stamford lost by one point in the Varsity 1 division championship . Dell decided to continue to pursue football at the post-secondary level, heading to Waterloo, Ont ., and joining the Golden Hawks . In four years and an accumulation of 30 games, Dell has rushed for 210 yards in 42 attempts. He has scored six touchdowns – five of which came in 2010. In the 2012 season, the kinesiology and physical education major had rushed 112 yards in 9 games on 24 attempts. He was named football player of the game on Sept. 3 against the Toronto Varsity Blues, as well as on October 20 against the McMaster Marauders . 2012 was also an opportunity for Dell to showcase his talent to CFL scouts, as he was invited to the East West Bowl in London, Ont ., alongside teammates Alex Anthony and Felix Odum . Dell said it gave him a chance to learn a valuable skill set to bring back to the Hawks In March of 2013, Dell was one of two Golden Hawks invited to the CFL combine, an opportunity to showcase your skills to CFL teams before the draft in May. And Dell did not disappoint . The 6-1, 218-pound fullback turned heads during the broad jump, leaping ten feet, three inches . His score was the best among running backs at the combine, and third overall .
In the three-cone drill, Dell repeated his success and finished with a time of 6.962 seconds, once again putting him first among running backs and third overall. He also finished second among running backs for the 40-yard dash, finishing in 4.755, and third in the bench press with 22 reps . So, while at the comfort of his Niagara Falls home this past May, Dell and his family watched anxiously as the CFL draft took place. With the remaining rounds being streamed online, Dell, his sister and his mother watched players be taken, until his sister saw that he was taken 37th overall in the fifth round to the Hamilton Tiger Cats, about a minute before the TSN panel announced it . “I don’t know at what point it will [set in], probably at training camp,” Dell said back in May from his Niagara Falls home. “It is exciting, but hasn’t quite hit home yet.” Dell spent the early months of the summer at the Ti-Cats training camp before suffering a concussion, which forced him to the sidelines . Following the injury, he opted to return to the Golden Hawks to use up his last year of CIS eligibility, before potentially returning to the CFL next year . With training camp over and the Hawks moving toward their new season, Dell sees a new focus for the Hawks, which he will try to help implement on the field. “I’m not necessarily personally implementing anything, but as a team, our motto is to be disciplined, and execute,” he said . “So, know our jobs, know our assignments, and do it at a high level, simply because we are a young team .” As one of only two fifth-year returning players, Dell knows that it will take an extra little bit for the young Hawk squad to produce positive results. “That’s how we’re going to be teams, not with experience, but with execution, discipline and being sound assignment wise .”
