ALUMNI STADIUMA T S T O E B E R F I E L D

2


APTLy named Alumni StAdium for the outpouring of financial sup-

port from Thiel College alumni, the facility – which opened with the

Tomcats’ first game of the 2001 season against Capital University – was

officially dedicated during Homecoming weekend on Saturday, Sept. 29,

2001. Alumni Stadium envelops Stoeber Field, named after legendary

Thiel coach John b. “JAck” Stoeber.

The stadium features a red brick entrance and ticket booth area, wrought

iron fencing surrounding the stadium, a hospitality center which houses a

memorabilia shop and a concession stand, seating for 1,400 and a

FieldTurf synthetic turf system.

The stadium is also home to the Victory bell (pictured middle left),

which was originally part of Ridgeway Hall, a farmhouse that was bought

by the college in 1876 and enlarged in 1881 to be used as a dining hall.

The bell was used to call students to meals and later to announce athlet-

ic victories. After Ridgeway Hall was razed in 1955, the bell was placed

on its own stand near where it had been as part of Ridgeway Hall until

the mid-1970s, when it was moved to the Passavant Center, where it was

used to call students to worship.

As Thiel’s athletic programs continue to grow and evolve, the demands

on the College’s sports facilities also grow. Installation of a multi-sport air

structure over Stoeber Field during winter months will ease the pressure

on the use of our current facilities and keep our sports teams practicing

and our intramural programs having fun all year round!

Thiel College

Athletics Facilities

Opened in 2001, Alumni Stadium (above) serves as the on-

campus home of Thiel football as well as the men’s and

women’s soccer and lacrosse programs. The stadium’s

FieldTurf playing surface is also used for intramural events.

One of the newest facilities on campus, the softball field at

Tomcat Park (below) is located on West Campus, near

Greenville’s Riverside Park.

general - are served by a collection of on-campus facilities that include some of the finest small-

college stadia in the region.

season and is home to Thiel’s nationally renowned baseball pro-

gram. The field can comfortably accommodate several hundred

fans and also features a spacious, elevated press box.

The Paul Bush ‘66 Fitness Center is located in the

upper level of the historic Rissell Gymnasium on

what was once the college’s main basketball court.

The facility is open to the entire campus community.

1892 Thiel College participates in its first

intercollegiate football game by taking on Grove

City College on Thanksgiving Day. Thiel loses the

game 48-0.

1893 Thiel, known then as the "Huskies,”

picks up its first-ever intercollegiate win with a 6-

0 victory over Allegheny College. The Huskies

have a Thanksgiving Day rematch with Grove

City, but unfortunately lose to their Mercer

County rival 28-0.

1894 Thiel has its first winning season under

Coach Hildum. The Huskies win four and lose

three, including an 86-0 thrashing of Fredonia

Institute. The 86 points are still an all-time Thiel

record.

1898 Led by player-coach J. Miller Hilbish, the

Huskies set a record for wins in a season with

five. Hilbish teaches the players to know their

positions, run interference and use trick plays

against more talented teams.

1899 The Huskies are refit with moleskin

cloth suits and other articles by businessmen of

Greenville. Thiel also joins the Intercollegiate

Athletic League (IAL), along with Westminster

College, Geneva College and Allegheny. Thiel

finished third in the IAL that year.

1902 On Sept. 23, the Thiel faculty issues its

Football Manifesto, which prohibits the playing of

football at Thiel. In reply, some students gather

on a roof and sing, "In Heaven above where all is

love/There will be no faculty there."

1911 The Football Manifesto is lifted and foot-

ball resumes at Thiel. Led by co-coaches Nathan

Harter (for whom Harter Hall is named) and

Asher F. Shupp, the Huskies finish the season 1-1.

A loss to Grove City and a win against Edinboro

highlights the second coming of the “first season

of Thiel football”.

1916 Loyal Thiel students walk a 55-mile

distance to Beaver Falls to see Thiel play Geneva

to a 0-0 tie. The students travel as far as

Ellwood City on Friday and finish their journey

Saturday morning.

1918 The Thiel football team, led by Coach

Herbert "Hub" Lynch, plays only one game, a 27-

0 loss to Grove City, before dropping the rest of

the schedule due to World War I.

1924 Head Coach Tommy Holleran takes theHuskies to Pittsburgh to face Carnegie Tech. Thielis defeated 22-0, but puts up such a fight thatWally Steffen, head coach of Carnegie Tech, saysthat the team "played like Wildcats." This leadsMelvin A. Blair, sports editor of the GreenvilleRecord-Argus, to report that "they played likeTom's Cats." The name sticks and the athleticteams at Thiel are known as the Tomcats fromthen on.

1932 John B. Stoeber takes over the head

coaching reins of the Tomcats. Although Thiel

ends the season 3-6 in his first year, Stoeber

remains the head coach until 1955, compiling a

Thiel-record 75 wins in his 19 seasons.

1941 The Tomcats post their first undefeated

season in school history with a 7-0 record. Thiel

dominates their opponents by posting six

shutouts and allowing only seven points the

entire season.

1942-45 Football is halted for the duration of

World War II. It is the first gridiron stoppage at

Thiel since 1918.

1946 The Tomcats pick up where they left off

in 1941 by posting their second-straight 7-0 sea-

son. Although the Tomcats allow more than seven

points, they still record three shutouts, including

a 2-0 win over Slippery Rock State College.

1950 Thiel rolls to their third perfect season

in school history. The Tomcats finish at 7-0 with

five shutouts while outscoring their opponents

206-13. During the season they set the modern

single game scoring record with 61 points against

Lycoming College.

1955 Joe DiFebo, captain of Stoeber's 1941

team, takes over as Thiel's new head coach.

DiFebo carries on the winning tradition with a 6-

1 record.

1958 Thiel joins the Presidents' Athletic

Conference in the fall of 1958, along with

Allegheny College, Washington & Jefferson

College and Bethany College.

1967 The Tomcats win their first PAC title

with a perfect 6-0 conference mark under

second-year head coach Jim McCullough.

1972 McCullough leads the Tomcats to their

second PAC football title with a 6-1 conference

record.

1981 In their win against Case Western

Reserve University on Sept. 26, the Tomcats set

PAC records with 451 yards of rushing and 676

yards of total offense.

1991 First-year head coach Charlie Giangrosso

leads the Tomcats to their first winning season

since 1979 with a 5-4 record.

1999 The Tomcat football team makes its first

international appearance, traveling to Munich,

Germany. Thiel returns to the U.S. victorious

over the Landsbert Express semi-pro team.

2000 Former player and coach Howard

Weyers ‘56 and wife Kay announce lead pledge

to launch the campaign to raise funds for the

construction of Alumni Stadium.

2001 The Tomcats open Alumni Stadium at

Stoeber Field, bringing Thiel football to campus

after decades of playing on nearby Stewart Field.

2004 Thiel Football celebrates its 100th sea-

son as the Tomcats travel to Canada and defeat

the University of Toronto at Lamport Stadium.

The team finished with a 7-3 overall record and

second in the PAC with a 4-1 mark. The Tomcats’

last seven-win season was in 1972 (7-2) when

Thiel recorded its second PAC championship.

2005 Under the direction of fifth-year head

coach Jack Leipheimer, the Tomcats post an

unblemished 10-0 regular season mark, win the

PAC title for the first time since 1972 and make

the program’s first-ever NCAA Division III playoff

appearance. After posting a 28-3 home victory

over Johns Hopkins University in the opening

round of the Division III playoffs the Tomcats

suffer a 24-13 loss at Alumni Stadium to

Bridgewater College in the second round to

finish the year with an 11-1 record.

thiel colleGe, initially focused on ministry for the EvangelicalLutheran Church in America, was founded as Thiel Hall in Monaca,

Pa., in 1866 and chartered by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in 1870.In 1871 the college moved to Greenville where it has remained ever since.The first football game was played against Grove City College in 1892.

The years from 1902-1910 are referred to in Thiel College history as the“Football Manifesto”. There are some differing accounts as to why Thielstopped playing football for this eight year period - but the most accuratehistory is probably found in The History of Thiel College, 1866-1974.Reportedly, a faculty manifesto was passed declaring football “too violent”,causing the students to refer to these years as the Football Manifesto.

The faculty relented in 1910 after eight years of student protest and in1911 Thiel fielded a football team for two games, one versus Grove CityCollege and one versus Edinboro College (now Edinboro University). Thesecond period of time when Thiel did not have a football team was from1942-1945, during the United State’s participation in World War II.

In the 103 seasons of Thiel’s football history, many important events andfirsts have occurred. For example, the first football game designated a“Homecoming game” was in 1915 on Thanksgiving weekend versus HiramCollege. The Tomcats prevailed 28-13 and afterwards a banquet was held

with entertainment by the college orchestra. Other milestones include:the first Thiel win: 1893 vs. Allegheny, 4-0; the 100th Thiel win: 1936 vs.Allegheny, 6-0; and the 300th Thiel win: 2001 vs. Grove City, 40-27.

The most celebrated individual in Thiel’s football history is without adoubt coach JAck Stoeber. Coach Stoeber served as head footballcoach from 1932-1941 and again from 1946-1954. He amassed 75 winsin that time and went on to win the Dapper Dan award for outstandingcontributions to athletics in Western Pennsylvania, the Greenville Man ofthe year award, the National Recreation Association award for distin-guished service in community recreation and numerous coach of the yearawards. Coach Stoeber’s career at Thiel also included stints as professorof German, head men’s basketball coach, dean of men and director of ath-letics.

The remarkable history of excellence and achievement is remembered asthe building blocks for today’s Thiel football players. Except for the twoperiods without football teams during Thiel’s history, varsity football hasbeen played every year since 1892, and this year marks the celebration ofthe 104th season of Thiel football.

PERFECTIONThiel’s Undefeated Regular seasons

Thiel has produced four unbeaten, untied regular seasons in its history. Three

came during the tenure of legendary coach Jack Stoeber, who led Thiel to 75

wins in 19 seasons at the helm. The most recent came in 2005 under the

direction of head coach Jack Leipheimer, whose team was the first in school

history to advance to the NCAA Playoffs.

A Century of Thiel Football

the TOMCAT mascot

through 1923 Thiel athletic

teams were known as the

“Huskies”. But in 1924, greatly

impressed by the spirit of the Thiel

football team, Carnegie Tech head

coach Wally Steffen observed that

“they played like wild, wild cats.”

This prompted Melvin A. Blair of the Greenville Record

Argus to report “Thiel played like Tom’s cats,” in reference

to head coach Dr. Thomas Holleran, a Greenville dentist

and former All-America at the University of Pittsburgh.

From that point thereafter the Thiel “Huskies” became

known as the Thiel “Tomcats” as a tribute to Dr. Holleran.

The Tomcats


Anew-look Thiel offense will be on dis-

play when the Tomcats begin their

2010 football campaign under second-

year head coach Kurt Reiser.

The Tomcats will make the switch to the

spread offense, a move Reiser says has

been in progress over the last couple of

years. With the school already showing its

commitment to improving the athletic

programs with the construction of an

indoor practice facility, a smooth transi-

tion to an offense with high-scoring

potential could make for an exciting year

at Thiel.

New offensive coordinator Brad

Paulson will play a key role as

the Tomcats get acclimated to

their new style. Paulson has eight

years of experience as an offen-

sive coordinator at three differ-

ent schools.

“We were looking for somebody

with experience in the spread,”

Reiser said. “He's worked with

the spread and has been success-

ful with it. He'll do a great job

implementing it and preparing us

to go forward.”

The change in offense may give

the skill athletes a chance to

flourish, meaning players such as

Tyler Dejong and Ross Gargano

could improve on the quality

seasons they turned in last year.

Dejong caught 46 passes for 524

yards as the second receiving

option behind record-setting

wideout Brendan Taylor. With

Taylor gone to graduation,

Dejong will step in as the main

receiving threat in his sophomore season,

combining with K.J. Smith to give the

'Cats a pair of returning letterwinners in

the receiving corps. Peter

Garza, Joe Hewel, who moves to wideout

from corner, and Devin Wasylink are also

competing for receiver spots.

“We have guys coming back who had a

chance to learn the offense this spring

and get acclimated to some of the termi-

nology,” Reiser said. “combine this with

what we've done in recruiting with

approximately 80 incoming freshman and

some very good skill players, it's going to

be a lot easier.”

Gargano could be a focal point in the

offense after proving to be a multi-threat

athlete last year. As a sophomore, the tail-

back led the team with six rushing touch-

downs and added two scores on catches.

His 34 receptions ranked third on the

team, as did his 184 yards on the ground.

“Ross is our most versatile offensive play-

er. He can play the slot or we can line

him up at running back. He'll probably get

more carries than a year ago since Danny

Hess has graduated,” Reiser said.

Justin Wazelle, a sophomore tailback, will

also see carries while Rob Tibbit will be

on the field primarily as a blocking back.

It is still unclear who will line up under

center for Thiel this season. Reiser says

three players are battling for the spot,

including senior Matt Endlish, junior Ken

Rasinski and Jared Soell.

Each of the three potential starting quar-

terbacks is coming off a different situa-

tion. Endlish was the backup to starter

Willie Bova last year, Rasinski is returning

from a knee injury and Soell is a transfer

from Slippery Rock University.

“This will be the first time in several

years going into camp that the quarter-

back position is up in the air,” Reiser said.

“All three did a nice job in the

spring. It will be important for us

to get a feel in camp for where

they are and who our starting

quarterback is going to be.”

In addition to the change in

offensive style, Reiser's coaching

responsibilities will differ from

last year. The hiring of an offen-

sive coordinator relieves Reiser

of those duties, allowing him to

return to overseeing the offen-

sive line.

The change gives the Tomcat

head coach more opportunity to

manage the game as a whole

rather than spending all his time

focused on just the offensive side

of the ball and calling plays.

“My job as the head coach will

be to try to make sure we have

team success so that what we

are doing offensively and defen-

sively mesh. If we need to help

the defense out by running more,

then that's what we'll do. That

will be part of my job, to balance offense

and defense and oversee the entire game

better than I have in the past,” Reiser

said.

The offensive line that Reiser will take

charge of loses its most accomplished

player in J.R. Kenna, a first team All-PAC

selection last year, to graduation, but has

SEASON OUTLOOK

THIEL COLLEGE

Senior Defensive Back BRYAN VILLEGAS


three returning starters in Gary Petrucci,

Vince Palmiere and David Mossa. All three

started each of the 'Cats 10 games last

season.

“They'll have to help us control the line

of scrimmage in the running and passing

game. We have to do a much better job

running the football,” Reiser said. “Even

though we're going to the spread, we still

want to be able to run the football and

be a physical team up front.”

The Tomcats struggled to establish the

running game last season, finishing under

50 yards in a game six times, but showed

signs they were capable of being success-

ful carrying the ball, including a 172-yard

ground attack in a win over Albion.

On the other side of the ball, Thiel's

defense will be led by a pair of returning

starters that earned All-PAC honors last

season in Will Haase, a second team All-

PAC selection, and Bryan Villegas, an hon-

orable mention on the All-PAC squad.

It will be the final year at Thiel for Haase,

who will anchor the defensive line. His all-

conference selection was the second of

his career and another solid season could

net him his first appearance on the first

team. He will be joined on the line by

returning starter Tim Taylor, who regis-

tered 44 tackles and tied with Haase for a

team-high three sacks. Jason Joens, Tom

Cermak, Matthew Shields and Zach

Woody are battling for the final two

starting spots on the line and will all see

playing time.

Reiser will look to Villegas to be the sen-

ior leader in the secondary from his free

safety position, with returning starters

John Madeline and Cody Sirgey as the

frontrunners to start at the corners.

David Urey, Marshaun Hainesworth and

Hunter Liptrap are also competing for a

starting spot.

“Haase has shown he can be a dominant

player in this league and Villegas has a

leadership role in the secondary,” Reiser

said. “Those are the guys we will be lean-

ing on in the defensive huddle to push the

young guys around them to compete on

every snap.”

Bobby Shew, who the Thiel coach calls an

intelligent player with good instincts, is a

returning starter at linebacker, as is Ryan

Dawes. The third linebacker spot, as well

as those providing depth, have yet to be

decided.

The kicking game shouldn't be a problem

for the Tomcats as they return an All-PAC

punter and All-PAC kicker. Anthony Rozzi

was selected to the second team as a

punter while Madeline was listed as an

honorable mention kicker.

Thiel will open its season vs. Marietta at

Alumni Stadium on Sept. 4. The only dif-

ference in the schedule from last year is

that instead of Albion, the Tomcats will

travel to play a non-conference game

against Widener for their second game of

the season. This game is part of the PAC-

MAC Challenge orchestrated by confer-

ence commissioner Joe Onderko. Each

team from the PAC, with the exception of

Thomas More, will play a team from the

MAC to determine bragging rights

between the two conferences.

The Tomcats begin their PAC schedule

with their Homecoming game against

Waynesburg in the season's third week

and follow that game with conference

matchups against Saint Vincent, Thomas

More, Bethany, Westminster, Geneva and

Washington & Jefferson before wrapping

up the season with a battle against Grove

City for the Mercer County Cup.

“I think with our conference, everybody

week in and week out is competitive so

we have to work hard every week,”

Reiser said. “I expect Washington &

Jefferson and Thomas More to be the

teams to beat again because of what

they've done in the past. Our job is to get

our kids to play and compete at that

level.”

Thiel finished 3-6 last year, a one-game

improvement over its 2008 record. If not

for a couple of close losses, a .500 season

or better could have been in reach. The

Tomcats fell to Marietta 20-14 in the sea-

son opener and closed out the season

with a 21-14 loss in double overtime to

rival Grove City.

“I think when we look back to 2009 we

realize we had some missed opportuni-

ties,” Reiser said. There were games that

if we had made a play here or play there

we could have won. Overall our goal is to

improve over last year. If everybody in

our program improves and competes on

a daily basis, wins and losses will take care

of themselves.”

FootbAll hiStory on noV. 16, 2008.

A member oF the coAchinG StAFF in

VAriouS cAPAcitieS under JAck

leiPheimer For eiGht SeASonS,

reiSer moSt recently SerVed AS

ASSiStAnt heAd coAch And oFFen-

SiVe coordinAtor For the tomcAtS.

As a member of the Thiel coaching staff,

Reiser has been no stranger to success.

As the team’s offensive line coach from

2001 to 2006, Reiser mentored eight

Tomcats to a combined 19 All-Presidents’

Athletics Conference selections. Two

players – dave hendricks and bob

munch – were four-time selections.

In Thiel’s 11-win 2005 campaign, the

Reiser-led offensive line played an integral

part in securing the program's first PAC

title since 1972 and its first undefeated

regular season since 1950. Five members

of that unit were named to the All-PAC

team, with two garnering first team

honors.

While Hendricks turned in one of the best

seasons of all time for a Thiel offensive

lineman, earning AFCA first team and D3

Football.com first team All-America hon-

ors in addition to being named the Don

Hansen Football Gazette National

Offensive Lineman of the year and earning

an invitation to participate in the Aztec

Bowl, the O-line as a whole paved the way

for a potent Tomcat attack.

Over the course of the 2005 season,

Reiser’s line allowed only seven sacks in

the regular season and aided in establish-

ing Steve Minton as the school's all-time

leading rusher and Darrell Satterfield and

Brandon Chambers as one of the most

prolific quarterback-receiver duos in

school history.

After being named offensive coordinator

prior to the 2007 season, Reiser has called

the shots for several of the most

impressive offensive displays in Thiel

football annals.

In his inaugural season as the Tomcats’

offensive play-caller, running back Dan

Hess set three school records in one day,

racking up 327 yards and 30 points on 43

rushes in a, 62-14, drubbing of Saint

Vincent College. The next season

quarterback Willie Bova conducted a

similar assault on Thiel passing records by

completing 32 of 63 tosses for 374 yards

(all three are school records).

Prior to arriving at Thiel, Reiser was the

offensive coordinator at Leyden High

School in Chicago for six years. A 1993

Allegheny graduate, he earned his master’s

degree from DePaul University in 1997.

With the Gators, where he played under

then-assistant coach Leipheimer, Reiser

was a three-year starter at tight end and

was a two-time All-NCAC selection and

an All-American. Reiser was also a starter

on the Gators’ 1990 National

Championship team.

He and his wife, Nancy, have three chil-

dren: Ben, Ethan, and Ellie.

KURT REISERHEAD COACH | SECOND SEASON

THIEL COLLEGE

PROFILE

whAt Are you exPectinG From thiS

yeAr’S Senior clASS?

In a single word - leadership.

They have to provide a great example of

work ethic, commitment, and dedication

on and off the field for our younger

players that we will rely on to make a

contribution this season. They have done a

good job to this point and we expect them

to take it to another level when we return

for camp this fall.

cominG oFF A 3-7 SeASon, hAVe you

noticed Any more determinAtion

From the teAm?

We never want to dwell on the past -

there is no point because there is nothing

we can do to change our record from

2009. We were better in 2009 than we

were in 2008 and we must continue down

that path of improvement. I do believe our

players can reflect on last season and

recognize some missed opportunities. If

we had made a play here or there last

season, our record certainly would be

different.

It is our goal for 2010 to improve on what

we started in 2009.

Are you PlAnninG AnythinG diFFerent,

SchemAticAlly, becAuSe oFthe chAnGeS

with coAchinG And PerSonnel?

We will look different this year than we

have in the past.

With the changes in the coaching staff, we

will be instituting new things offensively,

defensively, and on special teams. you will

probably notice the biggest change on

the offensive side of the ball as we move

from a Pro I scheme to more of a spread-

type of offense.

This past spring we were able to introduce

these changes to the players and they did

a great job of adjusting and learning the

offense. They are excited and looking for-

ward to the season.

whAt hAS been, or will be, the

biGGeSt chAllenGe you FAce in your

Second yeAr?

With approximately 140 players reporting

to camp, initially, our biggest challenge will

be getting people in the right positions to

help us be successful. It will be critical that

we manage drill time and practice time to

evaluate the players effectively. This is a

good problem to have and we are looking

forward to getting started on August 14th.

I am also looking forward to this season

and being able to manage the game as a

head coach. I will be coaching the offen-

sive line and will no longer be calling the

plays offensively. This will allow me to see

more of the game and give input to the

special teams and to the defense.

Any thouGhtS on the new mAc-

PAc chAllenGe thAt thiel will be

tAkinG PArt in thiS SeASon when you

tAke on widener?

We are looking forward to our trip to

Philadelphia to play Widener. They have a

rich tradition in their football program and

will certainly provide an early season test

for us. From a conference standpoint, it

will allow us to see where we stand with

another good conference.

The MAC sent two teams to the playoffs

last year with Albright making it to the final

eight before losing to Mount Union. It will

also allow our teams to get some

exposure in the eastern part of the state

which may allow us to expand our

recruiting area to those parts.

who do you exPect to SteP uP their

GAme the moSt thiS SeASon?

We are counting on several players to

come through for us this year.

Offensively, tyler dejong had a good

year in 2009 as a freshman and with the

departure of brendan taylor, he will be

looked upon to lead a young receiving

corps. I would also expect ross Gargano

to become more prominent in our

offensive scheme. Ross showed flashes of

brilliance last year and we expect him to

become a bigger part of the offense.

From the defensive side of the ball, bryan

Villegas and will haase need to step up

to leadership roles. Will has shown the

ability to be a dominant defensive linemen

in our league and Bryan will be looked

upon to lead a young secondary.

whAt Are your exPectAtionS For thiS SeASon?

We are very excited about the upcoming season. With a large recruiting class coming

in to join our upperclassmen we are expecting good competition at each position. This

will only makes us better as individuals and as a team. We are looking to improve on

our record and to compete week in and week out. We will continue to strive to get

better each day to put ourselves in a position to compete in the conference.

ATHLETIC ADMINISTRATION

28 THIEL COLLEGE

Jack leipheimerdirector oF AthleticS

John A. “Jack” Leipheimer ’74 took over as Thiel

College’s director of athletics on Nov. 17, 2008.

He currently oversees Thiel’s 24 competitive ath-

letics programs, 22 of which are associated with

the NCAA at the Division III level.

A coaching veteran of 34 years – including 25 at

the collegiate level - Leipheimer returned to Thiel

as its head football coach in 2001 and promptly guided the program to

national prominence. His 2005 team compiled an 11-1 record and drew

two NCAA playoff games to Alumni Stadium in Greenville.

Over his eight seasons at the helm of the football program, Leipheimer

amassed 36 wins – which ties for third most all-time in school history -

including an NCAA Division III playoff win in 2005. Under his tutelage, Thiel

players earned 114 all-conference selections, 17 all-region players and 10

all-America selections. He also coached five ESPN The Magazine Academic

All-Americans – a testament to his emphasis on academic excellence.

Leipheimer continues to stress the importance of academic and athletic

success to Thiel’s student-athletes as he oversees the day-to-day opera-

tions of the athletic department. In addition, he will focus on fund-raising

efforts in support of Thiel’s athletics program which includes more than 20

coaches and staff members and over 300 student-athletes.

Leipheimer was a four-year letter winner and three-year starter at tight

end, earning All-PAC accolades in 1973. He was a member of the 1972

squad that registered the college’s second PAC title with a 6-1 conference

mark. He was also a three-year letter winner with the Tomcat baseball

squad, playing both catcher and first base.

Before arriving at Thiel he served as an assistant coach at Allegheny College

for 17 years, with the last 12 seasons as the defensive coordinator. He

began his coaching career in 1975 as the offensive coordinator at the Bullis

School, Potomac, Md. He then served as the defensive coordinator at

Trinity High School, Garfield Heights, Ohio, from 1976-1978, and as head

coach of the former Kennedy Christian High School, now Kennedy

Catholic, Hermitage, Pa., from 1979-1984.

During his 12 seasons as Allegheny’s defensive play-caller (1989-2000), the

Gators tallied an impressive overall record of 106-23-1, including 22

shutouts. Leipheimer’s defensive schemes helped the Gators win the

NCAA Division III National Championship in 1990, and six North Coast

Athletic Conference (NCAC) Championships. At Allegheny Leipheimer

coached 70 All-North Coast Athletic Conference (NCAC) defensive play-

ers, 43 of whom were named to the first team and 22 defensive All-

Americans.

Jack and his wife, Patti, reside in Greenville. They have two daughters:

Shanna Bossler, a 2002 Thiel graduate and Krista Ferguson, a 2005 graduate

of the University of Pittsburgh.

Down 31-14 with 13:42 to go in the fourthquarter, Saint Vincent quarterback Jake Smithhad Thiel’s defense on its heels using an effec-tive hurry-up attack.

Thiel went three-and-out on its ensuing posses-sion, but a booming 83-yard punt by freshmanTony Rozzi gave the Bearcats the ball at theirown 19.

On the very next play, linebacker Clint Walkerpicked off Smith at the 35, and tacked on an 8-yard return to put Thiel in business at the SaintVincent 25-yard line.

The beginning of the fourth quarter was whenGrove City quarterback Andrew DiDonatobegan to exploit cracks in the Thiel Collegedefense as he marched his fellow Wolverinesdown the field in the form of a 12-play, 86-yarddrive for a touchdown.

The Tomcat offense could only get three playsinto their answering drive when Wolverine line-backer, Andrew Keirsey, picked off a Willie Bovapass and returned it to the Tomcat 16.

The Tomcats would work their way down tothe Grove City 4-yard line for a fourth-and-goal opportunity.

An Historic cAmpus...AT the Pittsburgh Synod convention in Greensburg in 1869, it was decided that Thiel Hall

would become a college and serve western Pennsylvania. Thiel College began its corporate existence on September 1, 1870, at Phillipsburg, where it stayed until Greenville submitted anelaborate proposal to have the college moved to the Mercer County community.

With a population of 1,848 in 1870, Greenville offered splendid north/south and east/west railtransportation, strong local patronage, exemplary moral and religious conditions and a pledge of$10,000 cash, five acres of land and use of a large academy building.

Thiel College was initially housed in the Union or Central School, made available by theGreenville School Board. The cornerstone for Greenville Hall (pictured left), the first building oncampus, was laid on August 15, 1872, while the dedication took place in conjunction with Thiel'sfirst commencement, June 25, 1874.

Founded in 1955, the Presidents’ Athletic Conference continues

its mission of promoting intercollegiate athletics and the pursuit

of academic excellence.

Comprised of 10 select private colleges - Bethany College,

Chatham University, Geneva College, Grove City College, Saint

Vincent College, Thiel College, Thomas More College, Washington

and Jefferson College, Waynesburg University and Westminster

College - the PAC remains a unique organization in this day of

high pressure intercollegiate athletics. With academics at the cen-

ter of each member’s philosophy, the PAC is built on the principle

that an athletic program is a part of college life, but not an entity

in itself.

The PAC expanded to seven members in 2005 with the addition

of Thomas More, formerly an NCAA Division III independent.

Saint Vincent College, a former NAIA member, joined the confer-

ence as it began provisional membership status in NCAA Division

III in 2006-07. Another former NAIA member, Geneva College,

became the conference’s ninth member and began league play as

it started NCAA Division III provisional membership in 2007-08.

Chatham College became the league’s 10th member, also in 2007-

08.

The PAC annually crowns champions in 19 sports. In 2008-09, the

conference had 41 teams represent the conference in postseason

play, including 23 in NCAA Championship events. PAC champi-

onship teams receive automatic qualification (AQ) status for most

NCAA Division III national championship events.

All-conference status is awarded in all 19 sports. Head coaches

select all-league squads for all team sports, while in individual

sports such as cross country and tennis, all-PAC accolades are

based upon performances at the conference championships.

The PAC annually awards its men’s and women’s All-Sports

Trophies to the schools which perform best across the board in

PAC competition. The Washington & Jefferson College men and

WestminsterCollege women captured the 2008-09 trophies (see

below).

True to its mission, the PAC has produced numerous Academic

All-Americans and NCAA Postgraduate Scholarship winners. Last

year, the league named 602 student-athletes to the PAC Academic

Honor Roll, which recognizes all participating athletes who attain

a term grade-point average of 3.60 or above.
