VMI Football fans may want to keep a roster bytheir side at all times when following theKeydets this fall.

With just four senior players and two-thirds ofthe roster listed as freshmen or sophomores eli-gibility-wise, there will be plenty of new facesto track on the Foster Stadium gridiron.

The Keydets will also feature plenty of experi-ence, however, with 29 letterwinners and 16starters returning on both sides of the ball.

First-year head coach Sparky Woods will becharged with assembling the new piecestogether with the veteran components toimprove and solidify VMI Football's fortunes inthe Big South Conference.

The Woods Era got its official hands-on start inApril when the Keydets took to the practicefield with improved roster numbers duringspring drills.

The new VMI coach was pleased with theprogress the team showed, and how it cametogether as a hard-working group during springpractice.

"Overall, we've probably made more progressthan I thought we would at this time, so I'mencouraged by that," said Woods after the lastscrimmage of spring practice. "We have to con-tinue to battle every day to make sure we getbetter."

The new Keydet coaching staff facesthe challenge of maintaining theoffensive momentum shown the lasttwo years by the yard-churning andpoint-producing spread option attack,while recharging the Keydet defensethat has been looking for consistencyand identity.

The Keydet offense averaged 402.2total yards per game in 2007 whichwas the highest such number inschool history, surpassing the 390.0mark established in 2003. In addi-tion, the 283.2 rushing yards pergame last season was a Big Southrecord and ranked fourth in the FCS.VMI also produced four games of 500yards or more of total offense in2007, the most such performances inKeydet history. The impressive effortscame against Robert Morris,Presbyterian, Coastal Carolina andCharleston Southern. VMI has alsoproduced back-to-back Big SouthConference leading rushers the lasttwo seasons. Howard Abegesah fin-ished with 1,121 yards in 2007, thefourth-highest total in league historyafter Sean Mizzer ran up 1,022 yardsin 2006. VMI also led the Big Southin rushing for the second consecutiveseason.

Headlining this year's offensive returnees are atrio of juniors who will be counted on to keepthe offensive machine rolling - slotback Tim

Maypray (Madisonville, Ky.), runningback Howard Abegesah (Beltsville, Md.)and quarterback Kyle Hughes(Williamsburg, Va.).

Maypray has developed into one of themost dynamic performers to wear a VMIuniform and was named by Lindy'sMagazine as the Big South OffensivePreseason Player of the Year. Mayprayfollowed his 2006 Big South Freshmanof the Year season by earning All-BigSouth honors as both a receiver andkick return specialist in 2007. The 5-8slotback produced five games of 200+all-purpose yards, including a school-and conference-record 346 yardsagainst Charleston Southern. The versa-tile Keydet standout also returned twokicks for touchdowns in 2007, the firsttime a Big South player had accom-plished that feat.

Abegesah will again spearhead the VMIground attack after leading the Keydetsin rushing in ten of 11 games last year.He produced five 100-yard rushinggames in 2007, the second-highesttotal in league history, and his 1,121yards rushing was the eighth-best sin-gle-season output in school history.Abegesah worked hard in the spring

improving his blocking technique and ball con-trol, and the Maryland native will look to repeatas an all-conference pick, as well as take aimat another rushing title.

For the fifth-consecutive year, the Keydets willhave an experienced signal caller to run theoffense as junior Kyle Hughes returns for histhird season of play at quarterback. Hugheshas shown great poise and presence in his firsttwo years, and had a solid spring practicebefore a thumb injury sidelined him for the lastscrimmage. Hughes is expected back healthy inAugust camp, and will look to add to hisSecond Team All-Big South season of a yearago, a campaign during which he piled up over1,500 yards of total offense.

Behind the three leaders at the skill positions,the Keydets will look to develop several young-sters. At quarterback, redshirt-freshmanCameron Jones and Justin Hickman will vie forthe back-up role behind Hughes. Maypray willbe backed up by fellow junior Zach Collins(Universal City, Texas) and sophomores GabeItoka (Reston, Va.) and Michael Rainey-Wiles(Pittsburgh, Pa.). At the “B” back position,Chaz Jones (Cleveland, Ohio) will vie for play-ing time behind Abegesah.

The offensive line, despite injuries, wasunquestionably a key to VMI's offensive suc-cesses last season, and the group returns threestarters and another letterman who saw consid-erable playing time last season. Returning towork in the trenches in front of Maypray,

2008 VMI Preview

Junior Tim Maypray was voted All-Big South lastseason at receiver and kick returner.

Junior Howard Abegesah was the second straight Keydet to lead the Big South

in rushing with 1,121 yards in 2007.

Abegesah and Hughes are center JamesBoatright (Grayson, Ga.), guard George Handler(Quinton, Va.) and guard Bo Wren (Gainesville,Ga.). The trio combined for a combined 31starts last year and will form a core of experi-ence. Redshirt junior tackle Frank Ellis (Reva,Va.) battled back from injury to gain valuablestarting experience last year, and is projectedin a starting role at right tackle.

The offensive line received a boost in springpractice when redshirt sophomore Ben Brandt(Forest, Va.) was moved to the O-line duringthe last two weeks of workouts. Brandt immedi-ately made an impact at left tackle and coulddevelop into a force there with his strength,speed and athleticism.

Three-year letterman Travis Ludden(Fredericksburg, Va.), who has also played inte-rior line, returns to the tight end position andwill be backed up by letterman Josh Favaro(Suwanee, Ga.). The receiving corps returnsCommonwealth natives Bryan Barnson andMario Scott. Barnson was one of the offense'sbiggest surprises of 2007, as the Chesapeakenative was second on the team in receivingyardage (292) and catches (13). Barnsonhelped stretch defenses as a deep threat, asdid Staunton native Scott, who averaged 13.4yards per catch with 10 receptions in 2007.

The defense will employ a new 3-4 alignment,transformed from a four-man front that wasused the last two seasons. Thirteen letterwin-ners and eight starters return from a unit look-ing to rebound from a long 2007 campaign.

The defensive front returns three starters insenior left end Andy Viola (Broadway, Va.),sophomore nose tackle Josh Wine(Fredericksburg, Va.), and redshirt sophomoreDamiso Alexander (Richmond, Va.).

Viola will provide leadership onthe defensive line as a returningtwo-year starter. Wine played andstarted all 11 games at nosetackle last season, and was theonly true freshman to start everygame on defense last year. Heled the Keydet down linemen intackles and fumble recoverieswhile also posting six tackles-for-loss. Alexander showed promiseat defensive end last season andis looking to establish himself asa full-time starter this fall.

The line could also have its bestdepth in years with a trio of red-shirt freshmen - ends Aaron Blue(Suwanee, Ga.), Emilio Calvin(Woodbridge, Va.) and tackle SamPalmer (Smyrna, Ga.) all appearto be ready to contribute aftersitting out last year.

Redshirt junior linebacker PatrickMcKinney (Big Stone Gap, Va.)will move from inside to outsidelinebacker and will line up oppo-site redshirt sophomore KyleNikmard (Katy, Texas). McKinney

is a proven performer who has emerged as aleader on the team and has led the team intackles for two consecutive years. Last year,McKinney’s total of 78 tackles ranked seventhin the Big South Conference. Nikmard will belooking to expand his role as a full-time starterafter earning three mid-season starts last year.

Projected as possible starters at inside line-backer are senior Jacob Rochester (Dallas,Texas) and redshirt freshman A.J. Gross(Waldorf, Md.). Rochester, a two-time FCSAcademic All-Star, should seeplenty of playing time atinside linebacker, while Grosscould be an impact playerwith his quickness and play-making ability. Also looking toget into the mix at insidelinebacker will be redshirtsophomores Jack Curtis(Fairfax, Va.), Mike Hutchings(Lexington, Va.) and redshirtfreshman Alex Ray (Roanoke,Va.).

The secondary two-deep willfeature a combination of thefamiliar and new faces, asfour lettermen will combinewith a quartet of players whowill be getting their first tasteof action this year. VeteranLevi Swindell (Elk Grove,Calif.) and redshirt freshmanByron Allen (Massaponax, Va.)are leading candidates tostart at cornerback, but two-year letterman BryantYoungblood (Youngstown,Ohio) will also push for play-ing time.

Swindell has 16 career starts and can also playstrong safety, while Youngblood moved into thestarting role at free safety at the mid-seasonmark in '07, and remained in that role for theremainder of the year.

The strong safety slot appears solid with red-shirt sophomore Kris Ware (Chesapeake, Va.)returning to the field after a year's absence.Ware emerged from spring drills as a projectedstarter, but three-year letterman Keith Taylor(Mechanicsville, Va.) will push for playing timeas well. The pair will combine to account forthe deepest and most experienced position inthe defensive backfield. The free safety posi-tion will feature two speedsters who will beseeing their first collegiate action this season.Tyler Reedy (Canton, Ga.) and Tracy Hairston(Martinsville, Va.) have both demonstrated theyare capable of handling the responsibility ofthis crucial position, and the duo is expectedto give the Keydet secondary some of its bestathleticism in years.

Sophomore Patrick Sweeney (Richmond, Va.)who handled placekicking and kickoff choreslast season, will concentrate on punting thisfall as quarterback Kyle Hughes relinquisheshis punting duties to focus on QB. The place-kicker role remains a question mark enteringAugust camp and will have to be resolved priorto the opener.

If the Keydets can continue their offensive suc-cess and match it with improved defensiveplay, VMI could see a turnaround in its footballfortunes faster than some would expect. Nodoubt, the experience and veteran leadership atkey positions throughout the squad bodes wellfor the future of the young, new-look VMI foot-ball squad.

Sophomore Josh Wine was the only true freshman to start every game on defense last season.

Junior linebacker Patrick McKinney has led VMI in tackles each ofthe last two seasons.

The Big South Conference is celebrating its 25thAnniversary in 2008-09, a milestone coming on the heelsof unprecedented achievements and unparalleled successin League history over the past few years. Since itsfounding in 1983, the Big South Conference has maturedinto a competitive leader in college athletics, actively pur-suing excellence on the field of play and in the class-room. The League's growing presence as an NCAADivision I athletic conference is evident by athleticaccomplishments on the national stage, innovative mar-keting and media partnerships, increased television pack-ages, and quality athletic competition while intentionallyfostering the academic, personal, social, athletic andleadership development of each student-athlete.

The Big South Conference was formed on August 21,1983, when Charleston Southern (then Baptist College)Athletic Director Howard Bagwell and AugustaPresident George Christenberry beganrecruiting members into the BigSouth, receiving initial commit-ments from Augusta,Charleston Southern,Campbell University,Coastal Carolina andWinthrop. One monthlater, Dr. Edward M.Singleton was selectedas the League's firstCommissioner and con-tinued to solicit newmembers. His effortsled to the additions ofArmstrong State, Radfordand UNC Asheville, givingthe Big South more than therequired six members to consti-tute an official conference. TheBig South's first year of competitionwas in the Fall of 1984, and in September1986, the Big South Conference was granted full-fledged NCAA Division I status.

During its infancy and prior to securing automatic bids toNCAA Championships, the Big South made early stridesin earning at-large berths in several national postseasonevents, including volleyball, women's basketball andwomen's golf. The League received its first automatic bidin 1990 to the NCAA Baseball Championship. In 1989,George F. "Buddy" Sasser replaced the retiring Dr.Singleton as Commissioner. Under Sasser's leadership,the Conference implemented its public relations and com-pliance programs, and introduced its first-ever men's bas-ketball television package, featuring the Big South com-peting among some of the finest teams in the nation.

In the last 15 years alone, the Big South Conference hasexperienced monumental growth and success in nearlyevery sport. During this time, the Conference has had twoindividual National Champions, close to 200 All-Americans, has reached the "Sweet 16" in men's soccer,women's basketball and baseball, has received nationalTop 25 rankings in men's soccer, men's basketball,

women's basketball, baseball, men's outdoor track & field,and men's golf, had an individual selected to play in theNCAA Singles Championship three times, had the No. 1ranked men's golfer in the country, had the national teamand individual scoring leader in men's basketball twice,received an at-large playoff berth in the FootballChampionship Subdivision in 2006, and had an institu-tion finish fifth in the NCAA Men's Golf Championships -the Conference's highest-ever team finish in an NCAAevent.

In 2006-07 alone, the Big South was the only Conferencenationwide to have an at-large participant in the footballplayoffs (Coastal Carolina), a team in the Second Roundof the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament (Winthrop) anda No. 1 seed in the NCAA Baseball Regionals (CoastalCarolina). In fact, Coastal Carolina's baseball program

has been a No. 1 seed three out of the last fouryears, while its playoff berth in 2006 came

in just the fifth-year of the Big South'sfootball existence.

In August 1996, Kyle B.Kallander replaced Sasser asthe League's thirdCommissioner, and in his12 years at the helm ofthe Big South, Kallanderhas been instrumental inaggressively promotingthe Conference to newlevels.

The Conference has enjoyedrecord levels in marketing

revenue during the past severalyears, he has brought television

coverage to Big South women's bas-ketball, baseball and softball for the

first time in Conference history, as well asincreased national television exposure to the League

as a whole through aggressive and unique television pack-ages. Under Kallander's leadership, the Big South devel-oped and initiated its first long-range strategic plan, re-affirming the League's vision as a distinctive athleticConference committed to the quality of institutional lifethrough athletic competition. He also spearheaded theefforts to add football as a championship sport, whichcame to fruition in 2002. Kallander's long range visionhas also included technological advancements, as theConference introduced its first live event video streamingin 2005 and has since expanded its video offerings tomore than 500 events annually through a partnership withthe member institutions, as well as the creation of aConference blog and an online merchandise store.

The Conference's on-field accomplishments have beenduplicated in the classroom. Annually, more than 40 per-cent of Conference student-athletes are named to the BigSouth's Presidential Honor Roll for maintaining a cumula-tive 3.0 grade-point average, and the League has hadmore than 90 Academic All-Americans in its quarter-cen-tury of existence.

Superintendent General Peay

GGeenneerraall JJ..HH.. BBiinnffoorrdd PPeeaayy IIIIII

General J. H. Binford Peay III, VMIClass of 1962, became the Institute's 14thSuperintendent on July 1, 2003. ThroughVision 2039, he has ushered in a period ofenthusiasm, growth, and change throughoutall aspects of VMI. Never losing sight ofVMI's primary "academic focus," which heemphasizes as "first among equals," Vision2039 sets forth a plan that will guide theInstitute for decades to come, as it movestoward its 200th anniversary.

Enhancing the physical and cultural environ-ment is a key component for the future. Fullrenovations of Nichols Engineering Hall,Crozet Hall, Mallory Hall, and J.M. Hall haverecently been completed, with a major mod-ernization project at Kilbourne Hall, a newLeadership and Ethics Center, and a thirdBarracks all in "full swing." In addition to thenew third barracks structure, this project willinclude modernization of all rooms in thecurrent Old and New Barracks as well.General Peay and his staff have also spenthundreds of hours buried in the details ofcadet leadership functions, cadet organiza-tions, the regimental and class systems, theHonor System, and the cadet daily schedule.

"We must have the daily schedule right;leadership, cadet life, study time, manage-ment skills, and everything else at VMIevolve around that," says General Peay.

Academically, VMI remains a clear leaderamong undergraduate colleges. In July2007, the Institute, in a superb perform-

ance, successfully completed its ten-yearCompliance Certification by the SouthernAssociation of Colleges and Schools receiv-ing reaffirmation of accreditation.Modernized and technologically enhancedacademic buildings and a full academic sup-port staff complement splendid instructors.The Institute receives annual national andstate recognition for its programs.

Military and athletics combine with academ-ics to form the historic three-legged stool atVMI, and both play major roles in Vision2039. A significant increase in commission-ing is called for as General Peay emphasizesthe importance of military service, not nec-essarily as a career, but rather for a coupleof years in the true spirit of the citizen-sol-dier. Over the past five years, the percentageof graduating cadets receiving commissionshas grown from 34% to 51%. A strong pro-ponent of athletics, Vision 2039 (and "everycadet an athlete") calls for huge capitalbuilding efforts which will benefit intercolle-giate teams, club teams, intramural sports,and the Corps in general. The initial andmost obvious effort is the newly renovatedfootball stadium at Alumni Memorial Field,dedicated - Foster Stadium - in September2006 in honor of P. Wesley Foster, Jr., VMIClass of 1956. The Gray-Minor BaseballStadium, named in honor of Senator ElmonGray '46 and G. Gilmer Minor, III '63, andthe Paulette Locker Room complex in honorof Bill Paulette '69 were completed and ded-icated in March 2007. A lacrosse-soccer sta-dium, additional multi-purpose fields,new Corps confidence courses, tenniscourts, RAT Challenge courses, andan improved cross country "ChessieTrail" are planned for the North Postarea and will "round-out" whatGeneral Peay calls "leadership valley."

General Peay considers hisSuperintendency as an opportunity togive something back to VMI whichhas had such a significant influenceon his life and that of his family. HisFather, J.H.B. Peay, Jr. was a gradu-ate of the VMI Class of 1929, and heand his wife, Pamela, have two sons,who are also graduates: Jim, Class of'98, and Ryan, Class of '02. Born inRichmond, Virginia on 10 May 1940,General Peay, upon graduation, wascommissioned a Second Lieutenant of

Field Artillery, embarking on a 35-year careerin the United States Army. He holds aBachelor of Science degree in CivilEngineering from VMI, a Masters of Artsdegree from George Washington University,and he is also a graduate of the UnitedStates Army War College. As a cadet, he wasa quarterback on the football team, a mem-ber of the Honor Court, a BattalionCommander and awarded the Institute'sprestigious Cincinnati Medal at graduation.

The most ambitious capital improvements to athlet-ic facilities in 20 years have been launched under theVision 2039 initiative of VMI Superintendent General J.H.Binford Peay, and Athletic Director Donny White has beena guiding force in the process.

Over the past two years, both the football and base-ball programs have seen their facilities significantlyupgraded with the additions of P. Wesley Foster, Jr. '56Stadium and Gray-Minor Stadium.

White is entering his 26th year in VMI Athletics,having spent 15 seasons as a coach and the past tenyears as Athletic Director. The improvement of athleticfacilities on post is just one issue that White has tackledsince taking over as AD in 1998. Upon his return, Whiteimmediately went to work addressing the challengingissues facing the VMI athletic department. At the sametime, he has built support for intercollegiate athleticsamong the VMI community and its alumni. His effort hasresulted in a change in conference affiliation, increasedfunding for operations, the development of women's ath-letics, and a better overall competitive environment forVMI sports.

In 2007-2008, the Keydet programs made signifi-cant strides: VMI basketball posted 14 wins for the sec-ond-consecutive year as standout Reggie Williams led thenation in scoring for the second straight season. In addi-tion, the baseball team had its best conference record in21 years and won 93 games in three years, the lacrossesquad advanced to the finals of the conference tourna-ment for the first time in history, and track athlete FelixKitur finished 9th in the nation in the 800-meter run atthe NCAA Championships.

Between coaching at the Institute and returning tohead VMI's athletic program, White spent 11 years con-centrating on private business, as well as high school ath-letics. The current VMI AD began a six-year stint as theathletic director at Patrick Henry High School in Ashland,Virginia in 1992. During his time in that position,improvements were made in facilities, ticket sales, andbooster club membership. The football program reachedthe ranks of the state's elite, winning 57 of 65 games,including the state championship in 1994.

White compiled a distinguished VMI coaching careerin two sports spanning 15 years. He joined the footballstaff in 1971 as a defensive backfield coach and helpedlead the Keydets to two Southern ConferenceChampionships and a State Championship in 1977. Whitecoached the defensive backs to a number one nationalranking in 1975 and number four ranking the followingseason. He served as VMI co-defensive coordinator from

1976 to 1981 and had the Southern Conference's top-ranked defense in 1977. His defensive backfields led theconference in pass defense three times. White alsorecruited seven football players who were selected all-con-ference.

In the fall of 1981, White became VMI head base-ball coach and began to resurrect a program that had notwon a Southern Conference game the three previousyears. His 1982 debut squad compiled six league winsand White was named Southern Conference Co-Coach ofthe Year. His teams won 85 games in six years and his1987 squad reached the Southern Conference champi-onship game. While serving as baseball coach, White alsotaught on the Physical Education staff as an assistant pro-fessor.

White is a 1965 graduate of VMI with a B.S. degreein civil engineering. As a cadet, he was a DistinguishedMilitary Student, named Who's Who in American Collegesand Universities, and was awarded the VMI IntercollegiateAthletic Award for excellence. White co-captained the1964 VMI football team and was selected All-SouthernConference in baseball for three consecutive years as ashortstop while also leading the team in batting. He wasinducted into the VMI Sports Hall of Fame in 1975.

After graduation from VMI, White was commissionedas a field artillery officer in the U.S. Army and served atour of duty in Vietnam. His decorations include theBronze Star, Purple Heart, and Air Medal with four oakleaf clusters.

KEYDETS AND KANGAROOSNo, the Keydet is not a Kangaroo although the term "Keydets"

has been used over the years to refer to VMI's athletic teams andthe kangaroo has become the established mascot.

The kangaroo was adopted as VMI's mascot in 1947 when twoVMI cheerleaders saw a picture of a kangaroo on the front of themagazine and realized how uncommon the animal was as a mascot.The marsupial was originally named "TD Bound", but sometimelater his identity changed to "Moe".

VMI is one of only four colleges across the nation to have akangaroo as a mascot, and only one of two schools among NCAADivision I institutions. The University of Akron's "Zippy" joins "Moe"as the only kangaroos in the Division I ranks.

The source and/or meaning of the nickname "Keydets" is notas easy to find. The term began to catch on in the mid 1930's -prior to that time, the football team was referred to as "The FlyingSquadron". A popular, but unproven, explanation of the word"Keydet" is that due to the Southern drawl of some of the membersof the Corps of Cadets, the common term cadet was transformedinto Keydets. There are, of course many other possibilities.Regardless of which explanation is correct, the word "Keydet" likekangaroo, will continue to identify VMI's athletic teams.

LITTLE JOHNThe loud and thunderous booms that permeate the confines of

Alumni Memorial Field on gameday Saturdays come from LittleJohn, II, the Corps' own cannon. The present cannon used made its

first appearance in September, 1958. replacing the original LittleJohn which was retired to the VMI museum after the undefeatedfootball season of 1957.

The cannon presently used was designed by the late Col. CaryS. Tucker of the VMI faculty, is a three-fifths scale replica of a1750 howitzer used in the Revolutionary War. It has a 20-inch bar-rel, which is adorned at the top by a shield from a cadet shako.

The cannon is fired when the Keydets take the field, after aVMI score, and after the end of quarters of play.

THE 12TH MANFew football playing institutions can boast 100 percent atten-

dance of its student body at every home game. At VMI, the 1,300member Corps of Cadets is present to support the Keydets for everycontest at Alumni Memorial Field - from the opening kickoff to thefinal gun.

Approximately 45 minutes before kickoff on home gameSaturdays, the Corps forms in front of barracks for the traditionalpre-game march-down to Alumni Memorial Field.

The Corps is also responsible for the colorful and highly visible"spirit" sheets that are draped from Cocke Hall located across thestreet from the north stands of the stadium. Each company in thecadet Corps designs its own banner and project is carried out fromstart to finish by the respective company's "rats", or freshmen.

THE SOUTH’S FIRSTThe first known football game to have been played in the

VMI Football History & Traditions

101

south took place in 1873 between VMI and next-door neighborWashington and Lee. The contest, played under different rules thanconventional modern day football, was played on the VMI ParadeGround with 50 players a side and won by Washington and Lee, 4-2.

VMI did not officially recognize football as an intercollegiatesport until 1891, but many games had been played by cadetsquads before that time.

KEYDETS IN THE PROSEleven former VMI football players have risen to the profes-

sional ranks. The first was Bosh Pritchard "the Hopewell Hurricane"who played for the Philadelphia Eagles and New York Giantsbetween the 1942 and 1951 seasons. The two most recent VMIfootball alumni to play professionally were Mark Stock, who playedwide receiver for Pittsburgh, Washington, and Indianapolis between1989 and 1996. Two-time All-American Thomas Haskins, VMI'sall-time leading rusher, played five seasons with the MontrealAlouettes of the Canadian Football League.

Bobby Ross, who captained the 1959 VMI Football team, hasdistinguished himself as a coach in both the collegiate and profes-sional ranks, served head coach of the San Diego Chargers andDetroit Lions, guiding the former to Super Bowl XXIX at the conclu-sion of the 1994. At the collegiate level, he coached The Citadel,University of Maryland, Army and Georgia Tech, winning a share ofthe 1990 national title at the latter.

TWO UNDEFEATED TEAMSVMI has fielded two undefeated teams in its 114-year old foot-

ball history. The1920 football squad, the "Flying Squadron" under coach

Blandy Clarkson, is VMI's only undefeated and untied team. In1920, VMI posted six shutouts on the year and tore through thelikes of Virginia, North Carolina, and a highly rated Pennsylvaniasquad coached by the legendary John Heisman. The teamoutscored its opposition 431-20.

The 1957 squad under Coach John McKenna went 9-0-1,captured the Southern Conference championship, and attained a

ranking as high as 13th in thenation before finishing at 20th inthe final Associated Press poll. Theteam was also extended an invita-tion to play in the Sun Bowl.

Clarkson-McKenna Hall, thefootball building adjacent to AlumniMemorial Field, honors both coach-es by bearing their names at thefront entrance. The facility was ded-icated in 1990.

RHODES SCHOLARSTwo VMI football players

have earned the distinction of beingRhodes Scholars. Lee D. Badgettwas selected in 1961, and RobertC. Randolph was named in 1967.Overall, four VMI athletes havebeen selected Rhodes Scholarsincluding former VMI superinten-

dent Josiah Bunting, III, a formerswimmer from the class of 1963.

ALUMNI MEMORIAL FIELD AT FOSTER STADIUMThe home field of the Keydets was dedicated on October 15,

1921 in a game against the University of Virginia. In 1962, standswere constructed on the south side of the stadium, bringing totalcapacity to 10,000. The largest crowd to witness a game in thefacility was an overflow gathering that saw VMI take on Navy onSeptember 15, 1973. The facility received a major refurbishing in2006 as part of the Foster Stadium improvements.

FAMOUS ALUMNI PLAYED FOOTBALLGeneral George C. Marshall, VMI's most distinguished alumnus

and class of 1901, played left tackle on the varsity football team.Serving his country as both a soldier and statesman, Marshall roseto the rank of General of the Army and Chief of Staff during WorldWar II, and his post-war achievements included ambassador toChina, Secretary of Defense, Secretary of State, and the architectof the Marshall Plan. In 1953, General Marshall received the NobelPrize for Peace.

SCHOOL COLORSVMI's school colors are derived from the three colors that sym-

bolized the three prominent branches of the United States Army.Dr. J.H. Campbell, a resident of Lexington, and a distinguishedgraduate, is credited with drawing on the significance of these col-ors and in 1886, wrote "Let red represent the Artillery, White theInfantry, and Yellow the Cavalry." The colors were gradually adoptedfor the athletic teams into the next century.

VMI FOOTBALL AND THE SOUTHERN CONFERENCEBefore joining the Big South, VMI was the oldest member in

the Southern Conference and competed for the league crown for 78years. VMI was admitted to the league in December, 1924 andcaptured seven league football crowns as a SoCon member. VMIwon SoCon crowns in 1951, 1957, 1959, 1960, 1962, 1974, and1977.

VMI and The Citadel play for the Silver Shako. The trophy is awarded to the winner of the series thatis known as “The Military Classic of the South.”
