HeaD coacH seaN McDoNNell Sean McDonnell, a 1978 University of New Hampshire graduate, gears up

for his 13th season as the head coach at his alma mater with a career record of 88-58. In 2010, McDonnell’s Wildcats collected victories against five ranked oppo-nents, a University record, en route to an 8-5 campaign. New Hampshire qualified for the NCAA Division I FCS Championship for the seventh consecutive season, the longest active streak in the nation. Further, UNH advanced to the quarterfinal round for the sixth time in those seven years after dispatching Bethune-Cookman, 45-20, in a second-round encounter before suffering a quarterfinal loss at eventual national championship game participant Delaware, 16-3. During this remarkable seven-season run of success, the Wildcats have posted a mark of 65-25 for a .722 winning percentage. They have been ranked in The Sports Network/Fathead.com Top 25 for a Colonial Athletic Association (CAA)-leading 97 consecutive weeks, dating back to Sept. 13, 2004.

McDonnell was feted as the 2010 Division I FCS Coach of the Year by the New England Football Writers, the third time he’s been honored (2005, ’08). During the course of the ’10 campaign, the ‘Cats earned their 12th straight home victory

–a school record- by shutting out No. 11 Richmond, 17-0, on Homecoming. Two weeks later, UNH made history by topping No. 12 UMass, 39-13, in the inaugural Colonial Clash at Gillette Stadium. The game was witnessed by 32,848 fans, the largest football crowd in CAA history. McDonnell has guided UNH football to the upper echelon of the FCS and has recruited several All-Americans and NFL-caliber players, including the likes of Walter Payton Award-winning QB Ricky Santos (2005) and the all-time NCAA FCS record holder for TD catches in WR David Ball (2003-06), who surpassed Jerry Rice’s career mark of 51 TDs with his 58 scoring receptions. In 2009, UNH finished 10-3 and won its second straight CAA North Division championship. The Wildcats con-tinued to be giant killers by knocking off an FBS opponent for the fifth straight time, securing a hard-fought 23-16 triumph at Ball State. Previous FBS opponents to feel the wrath of the Wildcats during the amazing upset run were Army (2008), Marshall (’07), Northwestern (’06) and Rutgers (’04). UNH was the only team to defeat eventual FCS national champion Villanova on Homecoming (28-24). The Wildcats also posted an impressive win on the road at McNeese State, defeating the Cowboys, 49-13, in the first round of the NCAA playoffs. New Hampshire notched a 10-3 record in 2008, including a defeat of Southern Illinois in the first round of the NCAAs before a quarterfinal-round setback at Northern Iowa. UNH finished the season ranked No. 7 or No. 8 in most national polls, and McDonnell was honored as the New England FCS Coach of the Year for the second time in his tenure. In 2007, the Wildcats were 7-5 overall and just narrowly missed upsetting No. 1 Northern Iowa in the first round of the NCAAs, losing on a last-minute TD, 38-35, at the UNI Dome. The Wildcat offense, ranked 16th in the nation, averaged over 400 yards per contest. The Wildcats were ranked as high as No. 1 in the nation in 2006 and finished the season ranked No. 6 after defeating Hampton in the first round (41-38) of the NCAA Championships. In 2005, McDonnell was honored as the Eddie Robinson National Coach of the Year by The Sports Network after leading his Wildcats to a record-breaking 11-2 season, an Atlantic 10 Championship title and a second straight NCAA appearance in the I-AA quarterfinals. McDonnell had his Wildcats ranked No. 1 in the nation at the end of the 2005 regular season. In 2005 the Wildcats played two nationally-televised NCAA postseason games on ESPN at Cowell Stadium, beating Colgate in the first round before succumbing to Northern Iowa in the NCAA quarterfinals. In 2004, his hard work rebuilding the program paid off in a 10-3 overall record and a 6-2 mark in the Atlantic 10, which earned the team the Northern Division Championship title. UNH earned a bid to the NCAA I-AA Championships for the first time since 1994 and advanced to the quarterfinals for the first time in the history of the program. UNH won its first-ever NCAA contest under McDonnell, upsetting Georgia Southern in the first round, 27-23, on national television. McDonnell was named a finalist for the Eddie Robinson National Coach of the Year and was selected District Coach of the Year by the American Football Coaches Association (AFCA). In 2003, UNH steadily improved as the season went on and the Wildcats went on to win three of their last four contests, including an upset victory over top-25 squad, Maine. The team’s 5-7 record could have easily been above .500, as UNH narrowly lost to No. 1-ranked Delaware on a missed field goal in the closing seconds, and UNH was driving for the game-winning TD late in the Division I contest at Central Michigan, but ran out of time. UNH posted impressive victories over the likes of top-ranked Massachusetts, Dartmouth and Richmond. The Minutemen were ranked 17th in the nation when the Wildcats defeated them by a 31-14 margin at Cowell Stadium. In 2002, McDonnell’s offense was one of the most prolific in I-AA football and averaged 449.2 yards per contest and 36.7 ppg. In the victories over the likes of Hampton, James Madison, Dartmouth and Massachusetts the ‘Cats scored 37 ppg and scored over 40 points in two of the victories. UNH finished with a 4-7 overall record in 2001. In 2000, the Wildcats were ranked as high as 23rd in the nation and knocked off three top-25 opponents, including Hampton (31-17), Massachusetts (24-16) and No. 2 Delaware on Nov. 4 (45-44 OT). Injuries squashed UNH’s chances for a playoff berth down the stretch, but UNH opened the campaign with a 4-0 record, its best start since 1977 when the Wildcats won seven straight games. UNH finished the season with a 6-5 record and finished tied for fourth in the Atlantic 10. As a result of his outstanding coaching performance, McDonnell was named the Gridiron Club Of Greater Boston College Head Coach Of The Year. In his rookie debut, McDonnell led the Wildcats to a 5-6 overall record and oversaw a wide-open offensive attack that led the Atlantic 10 with an average of 457.3 yards per game. McDonnell was named the 19th head coach of the UNH football program on April 22, 1999. McDonnell replaced legendary head coach Bill Bowes, who retired after 27 years as the mentor of the Wildcats. McDonnell served eight seasons as a Wildcat assistant and completed his fifth year as the team’s offensive co-ordinator in 1998. McDonnell rejoined the Wildcats as an assistant coach before the 1991 spring camp and worked with the quarterbacks and receivers for his first three seasons. In 1997, McDonnell was named the recipient of “The College Assistant Coach Award” by the Gridiron Club of Greater Boston in recognition of his quality of performance, loyalty and longevity. A native of Saratoga Springs, N.Y., McDonnell was a standout defensive back for UNH. He started for the 1975 and 1976 Yankee Conference championship teams and came back to start for the 1978 squad. After his graduation from UNH, he spent one year as an assistant coach at Manchester (N.H.) Memorial High School and followed that up with a three-year stint at Manchester West (1980-82). McDonnell worked as the defensive coordinator at Hamilton College for two seasons (1983-84) and subsequently spent three years (1985-87) coaching the receivers and tight ends at former conference-rival Boston University. During the 1988 campaign, McDonnell served as a graduate assistant coach at Boston College. He spent two seasons as an assistant at Columbia (1989-90) prior to his coaching debut in Durham. Sean and his wife, Jenny, reside in Durham and are the parents of two sons: Timmy and Tommy.

UNHFOOTBALL-NATION-LEADING7STRAIGHTNCAAAPPEARANCES

20�� seasoN PReVIeW The University of New Hampshire football team gears up for its 2011 season intent on extending the country’s longest Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) postseason streak to an eighth straight year. The Wildcats, who reached the NCAA Division I quarterfinals for the sixth time in seven years, com-pleted the 2010 campaign with an 8-5 record, stretching their string of consecutive weeks ranked in the Top 25 to an astound-ing 97 in a row. That is the longest streak in the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA), the nation’s premier FCS conference, and dates back to Sept. 13, 2004. The 2010 UNH football team made history by knocking off five ranked opponents for the first time ever and further established home dominance at venerable Cowell Stadium by completing the longest home winning streak in University history. The Wildcats blanked Richmond, 17-0, on Homecom-ing for a 12th straight victory at Mooradian Field, breaking a record that had endured for nearly 80 seasons. Additionally, New Hampshire’s triumph against Massachusetts at Gillette Stadium in the inaugural Colonial Clash was not only the largest live crowd to ever view a CAA game with 32,848 fans, it also featured the best television rating in league history on Comcast SportsNet New England (0.88). Once again in 2011, UNH will tangle with some of the top teams in the nation, kicking off with a challenge against the University of Toledo from the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) on Thursday, Sept. 1, at the historic Glass Bowl. The Wildcat football program serves as the benchmark for upset-minded FCS schools with a record of 5-1 versus FBS competition since 2004. The non-conference schedule also includes a visit to Lehigh, the defending Patriot League champion, and the home opener against another perennial Patriot League power, Holy Cross, on Oct. 1. The always-difficult CAA slate consists of road tilts at Richmond, William & Mary and Towson and home games against the likes of Villanova, Rhode Island, James Madison and Maine. Also, the second Colonial Clash is on tap for Oct. 22 against UMass at Gillette Stadium. While the ‘Cats had to bid farewell to six offensive starters from the ’10 squad, the depth chart includes 11 players who started games last season. Among this group is leading rusher Dontra Peters, second-leading receiver Joey Orlando and six offensive linemen with a wealth of playing experience, anchored by senior left guard George Pecoraro. On the other side of the ball, UNH will need to fill the void left by the departure of six starters, as senior cornerback Kyle Flemings is the lone member of the ’10 starting secondary back in the fold. The front seven, though, is loaded with experience, headlined by senior defensive end Brian McNally, a co-captain who set a school record with 13.5 sacks last season, and junior middle linebacker Matt Evans, fresh off a 156-tackle campaign, the highest total by a Wildcat since 1981. QUARTERBACK: Senior signal caller Kevin Decker has waited patiently in the wings for his chance to lead the offense, which finally arrives in his fifth season on campus. The 6-foot-

2-inch, 200-pound QB has shined when his number’s been called, never brighter than his lone start of the 2010 season. Decker, who was voted a co-captain by his teammates during spring camp, was at the helm of the Wildcats’ 45-20 NCAA second-round playoff victory at Bethune-Cookman on Dec. 4, completing 23 of 35 passes for 289 yards and three touchdowns. Overall, Decker saw action in all 13 games, connecting on 68.7-percent of his throws (46-for-67) for 447 yards with five touchdown tosses. The Armonk, N.Y., native also rushed the ball 28 times for 92 yards and a touchdown. The tight competition for the role of backup quarterback is a battle between junior James Brady (6-0, 200), a transfer from Georgetown who sat out last season due to NCAA transfer regulations, and redshirt freshman Andy Vailas (6-2, 180), who rushed for a touchdown in the spring Blue-White Game.

RUNNING BACK: Junior Dontra Peters enjoyed a break-out sophomore season, leading all UNH ball carriers with 707 yards rushing yards and seven touchdowns on a team-leading 142 carries in 12 games. The 5-foot-11-inch, 198-pound run-ning back averaged five yards per rush, 58.9 yards per game and was named to the All-CAA Third Team. Peters notched a CAA-best 197 rushing yards on 19 rushes in a season-opening win against Central Connecticut State and is poised to be among the league’s top RBs in 2011. Sophomore Chris Setian (5-9, 224) will complement Peters’ speed with a bruising between-the-tackles running ability. Setian led UNH with 5.1 yards per carry last season, gaining 184 yards and 36 carries. The East Longmeadow, Mass., native scored one touchdown and his downhill style helped him become the only Wildcat ball carrier

20�� seasoN PReVIeWwith 10-plus carries to avoid any rushes for negative yardage. Redshirt freshmen Jimmy Owens (5-8, 208) and Nico Steriti (5-11, 213) bided their time on the practice field in 2010 and should provide depth to the offensive backfield this season.

WIDE RECEIVER: Junior wideout Joey Orlando is on the precipice of stardom at UNH. As a sophomore, the 5-11, 199-pound receiver ranked second on the team in receptions (50), yards (585) and touchdown catches (6). With another year of experience under his belt, Orlando should be a favorite target of Kevin Decker. The wide receiving corps was buoyed by the news that senior Chris Chandler was granted a medical hard-ship waiver by the NCAA to play a sixth season with the Wild-cats. The Wakefield, Mass., native serves as both an on-field and inspirational leader for his battle back from a devastating knee injury that essentially cost him two seasons (2007, 2008). Last year, the 6-2, 219-pounder played in all 13 games, collecting 12 receptions for 164 yards and a touchdown. Chandler will be joined by another Wildcat eager to put a past injury in his rearview mirror: senior slot receiver Mickey Mangieri (5-10, 178). Mangieri had his junior campaign derailed before it really even got started when he suffered a broken leg in the fall Blue-White Game, but the native of Pound Ridge, N.Y., is back at full strength, seeking to build off a sophomore season that saw him pace the Wildcats with an impressive 19.8 yards per reception in 2009. Sophomore Justin Mello (6-0, 214) received some valuable on-the-job training in 2010, snaring three passes for 31 yards in six games. He’ll be expected to step up this season and compete for playing time with promising redshirt freshmen Jimmy Giansante (6-2, 196) and R.J. Harris (6-0, 188), who

pulled in a TD catch during the spring Blue-White Game.

OFFENSIVE LINE: After losing only one core member, left tackle Seth Price, the offensive line boasts a collective unit featuring six individuals with extensive playing experience –all of whom started multiple games last season. Remarkably, left guard George Pecoraro (6-3, 281) is the only senior in the trenches. The Cresskill, N.J., native should be flanked by left tackle Walter McCarthy (6-5, 270) and junior incumbent Chris Zarkoskie (6-1, 297) at center. Sophomore Seamus O’Neill (6-3, 275) is expected to slide into the right guard slot, which he shared with sophomore Ricky Archer (6-2, 285) last sea-son. Archer, who started games at both guard positions in ’10, provides experience at center, guard and tackle. Steady junior Mickey DiLima (6-4, 310) prepares to start at right tackle for the second year in a row. After missing last season, junior Isaiah Martin (6-2, 304) is looking to move up the depth chart, as are sophomores Sean Ryan (6-2, 300) and James Scafate (6-4, 300). They will compete with redshirt freshmen Alex Blane (6-4, 286), Rob Bowman (6-5, 292) and Mike Coccia (6-3, 275) for backup positions on the line.

TIGHT END: Seniors Chris Jeannot and Sean Cullen both had promising junior seasons interrupted by concussions, but with a clean bill of health in 2011, the duo has the potential to serve critical roles in both blocking and pass-catching schemes for the Wildcats’ offense. Jeannot (6-6, 263) showed a glimmer of his big-play ability with a game-breaking 12 catches for 110 yards against FBS foe Pittsburgh in September. Limited to just five games, the Moon Township, Pa., native finished the season

20�� seasoN PReVIeWwith 24 receptions for 205 yards and a touchdown. Cullen (6-4, 231) saw time in nine games, amassing 20 catches for 250 yards and a touchdown. The experience of Jeannot and Cullen will be balanced out by the addition of up-and-coming redshirt freshman Harold Spears (6-4, 232). Both redshirt freshman Mike Mitchell (6-3, 236) and sophomore Matt Murray (6-2, 253) will also seek opportunities to contribute.

DEFENSIVE LINE: UNH’s front four will be anchored by bookend senior defensive ends Brian McNally and James Jenkins, who each started all 13 games in 2010. McNally (6-3, 266), who was voted a co-captain by his teammates in the spring, had one of the most dominating pass-rushing seasons ever witnessed in Durham, setting a school record with a CAA-leading 13.5 sacks. The College Sporting News Sweet-63 All-America, All-CAA First Team member, FCS All-New England Team honoree and ECAC All-Star compiled 42 tackles, 25 solo, with a team-best 15 tackles for loss, two forced fumbles and one fumble recovery. Though overshadowed by his heralded classmate, Jenkins (6-1, 242) was a model of consistency with 22 unassisted tackles and 21 assisted stops for a total of 43 tackles, most among returning linemen. The Paterson, N.J., na-tive added four sacks and 6.5 tackles for loss. Sophomore Jay Colbert (6-1, 265) is slated to figure prominently at defensive end for a second straight season after collecting 12 tackles and forcing a fumble while seeing action in all 13 games as a redshirt freshman. Junior Jared Smith (6-3, 325) has a virtual lock on an interior lineman position after being a key member of the DT rotation last season. The Greencastle, Pa., native amassed 38 tackles, 7.5 tackles for loss, four sacks and a blocked kick while appearing in all 13 games. The early edge in the battle to

replace the departed Steve Young is sophomore Sean McCann (6-2, 265), who made seven tackles in seven games last season. Junior Randi Vines (6-3, 256) was on the brink of a breakout season in 2010, evidenced by his 30-yard pick-six in the season opener against Central Connecticut State, but a knee injury suf-fered two weeks later ended his season prematurely and caused him to miss spring camp. Sophomore defensive end Cody Muller (6-2, 215), who made the game-sealing fumble recovery in the upset win at Villanova last November, will miss the ‘11 campaign due to injury. Fellow sophomore Jimmy Vailas (6-3, 260) is ready to make an impact at tackle after tallying two sacks in the spring Blue-White Game. Redshirt freshman Brian Ciccone (6-3, 239) shifted from tight end to defensive end in the spring, and classmate Tim Johnson (6-2, 275) transitioned from offensive line to defensive line during spring camp. Both individuals figure to be in the front-four mix this season. Other candidates for playing time include junior Jeff Emmons (6-2, 255) and redshirt freshman Matt Kaplan (6-1, 295).

LINEBACKERS: In UNH’s unique 4-2-5 defense, the two middle linebackers must be able to read and react quickly in order to wreak havoc as sideline-to-sideline menaces. Fortu-nately for the Wildcats, they have a pair who fit the bill in juniors Matt Evans and Alan Buzbee. Evans (6-0, 233) burst upon the national stage in 2010 as one of the nation’s top LBs by racking up 156 tackles, the second-highest single-season total in school history. The Hanover, Mass., native led the unit in unassisted tackles (79) and assisted tackles (77), tacked on four sacks, two interceptions (including a 25-yard pick-six vs. Towson), three

20�� seasoN PReVIeWforced fumbles and two fumble recoveries. Deservedly, Evans was feted with a laundry list of postseason accolades: Col-lege Sporting News Sweet-63 All-America; Walter Camp FCS All-America; The Sports Network/Fathead.com All-America Second Team and All-CAA Second Team. Buzbee (6-3, 226) had an outstanding season in his own right, ranking third on the team with 86 tackles, 42 solo efforts, with eight tackles for loss and two forced fumbles after stepping into the starting lineup in week three for injured captain Devon Jackson. The Wildcats’ backup linebackers are seniors, with veteran special teams stalwarts John Duffey (6-2, 241) and Mark Petercuskie (5-11, 232) ready to step in when summoned.

SAFETIES: A unit that was deep on seniors a season ago will now rely on a collection of young players needing to fill the vacancies left by the graduations of Hugo Souza, Ryan McGuin-ness, John Greer and Mike Perkins. Senior Rod Walker (6-0, 202) is penciled in as the starting ‘whip’ safety coming off a junior campaign where he posted 17 tackles, including 11 solo stops, in mostly a special teams capacity. Sophomore Chris Beranger (5-11, 200) gets the first crack at free safety after amassing 20 tackles in 10 games during his redshirt freshman campaign, and sophomore Manny Asam (6-0, 185) made a successful conversion from wide receiver to strong safety in the spring, highlighted by his five tackles in the Blue-White Game. Expect to see strong candidacy from junior Tyler Sargent (5-10, 197), who made seven tackles in seven games last season before an injury ended his season early, and redshirt freshmen Chad Wilkes (6-0, 194) and Tre Williams (6-3, 190), who posted a game-high six tackles in the spring game.

CORNERBACKS: Senior Kyle Flemings (5-10, 176) will serve the leader of the secondary on the heels of a junior sea-son that saw him tie for the team lead with eight pass break-ups, nab four interceptions, force a fumble and recover two fumbles while starting every game. Senior Anthony Gorrell (5-10, 162) is primed to step into a starting role as the opposite corner, replacing four-year starter Dino Vasso. In 11 games last season, Gorrell registered seven tackles, one interception and one pass break-up. Sophomore Chris Houston (5-9, 172) and redshirt freshman Steven Thames (6-0, 176) will serve as backup corners.

SPECIAL TEAMS: Kicker Mike MacArthur (5-10, 177) was the only true freshman to see playing time for UNH in 2010, and all he did with that responsibility was earn All-CAA Third Team honors by going 10-for-13 in field goal kicking and a perfect 24 of 24 in PATs. The North Hampton, N.H., native is back to handle place kicking and kickoff duties, and able junior A.J. DeLago (5-10, 204) returns in a backup role after booting four field goals in as many attempts last season. The Wildcats will have a new starting punter for the fourth straight season, with MacArthur and redshirt freshman Brad Prasky (5-11, 189) dueling for starting honors. Dontra Peters is back to return kickoffs after averaging 22.7 yards per return last season (seven returns-159 yards), and Tyler Sargent recorded a team-best 25.0 yards per kick return last year before an injury ended his season prematurely. Joey Orlando is expected to be the primary punt returner after returning three punts for 28 yards last season. Mickey Mangieri should also get the assignment of returning punts two seasons after returning three punts for 64 yards.

UNHFOOTBALL-NATION-LEADING7STRAIGHTNCAAAPPEARANCES

Four NCAA Championship game appearances in four years under the CAA Football banner and more than 47 percent of its games on television...quite a way to begin an era! CAA Foot-ball raised the profile of what was once the Yankee Conference and later the Atlantic 10 Conference when it took the reins of the league in 2007. Now four years into the CAA’s leadership the league has moved from one of the power conferences in the NCAA Football Championship Subdivision to arguably the most successful conference in the division in terms of on-the-field success, television exposure, marketability and success of its players at the next level. The league’s marketability will only continue to grow as it adds Old Dominion to its roster in 2011, and later Georgia State, based in Atlanta, Ga., in 2012. Delaware pushed CAA Football’s streak to five straight national championship game appearances and seven in the last eight years. The league’s non-conference success was evidenced again last season by a 22-6 (.786) mark against FCS foes while James Madison pushed the league’s win total to three over teams from the ACC in the last two years with an epic 21-16 victory at nationally-ranked Virginia Tech. CAA Football has won 10 games over BCS/FBS foes in the last five seasons and 19 contests against the upper level of major college football in the last 10 years. CAA Football continued its stronghold in the national polls, showing seven teams ranked over a nine week stretch and a total of three teams at No. 1 during the 2010 season. Even more impressive was a four-week stretch from Sept. 20-Oct. 11 when league squads occupied five of the Top-10 spots in The Sports Network poll. An expanded NCAA Playoff field in 2010 allowed CAA Football to extend its streak to four straight years of four or more squads appearing in the postseason. Both Delaware and William and Mary earned Top-5 seeds, while Villanova and New Hampshire had to go on the road for their postseason openers. Delaware dispatched of Lehigh and New Hampshire won at Bethune-Cookman to set up an All-CAA Football matchup in Newark in the quarterfinal round. Villanova rattled off 40 unanswered points to come from behind at Stephen F. Austin and advance while the Tribe struggled to stop the triple-option attack of Georgia Southern and fell to the Eagles in its postseason opener. Delaware and New Hampshire renewed a CAA Football rivalry in the quarterfinal round and a defensive battle ensued as the Blue Hens advanced giving the league a semifinalist for the fifth straight year. Villanova got a total of five touchdowns from Matt Szczur to upset top-seeded Appalachian State at The Rock and march into the semifinal round. Villanova could not regain its early lead on the road at Eastern Washington and fell to the Eagles, but Delaware forced five Georgia Southern turnovers which helped it advance to the 2011 NCAA Division I National Championship game for the second time in four seasons. The Blue Hens dropped a 20-19 decision to Eastern Washington at the new home of the National Championship game, Pizza Hut Park in Frisco, Texas. The league has earned 75 total playoff berths, including 35 in the last 10 seasons. Getting into the playoffs isn’t where the success stops, as evidenced by 50 playoff wins since 2001. CAA Football has continued to make its presence felt at the national level by placing nine teams in the national semifinal round over the last five seasons and advancing a team to the national title game each of those five years as well. Richmond’s National Championship in 2008 and Villanova’s 2009 title are the most recent championships for the league. In 2004, James Madison claimed the national championship with a 31-21 triumph over Montana, becoming the first team to reach the title game by winning three road playoff contests since the field expanded to 16 teams in 1986. Delaware rolled past Colgate 40-0 to capture the national championship in 2003, becoming the first team to ever post a shutout in the title game. No other conference has had two different teams win national titles in back-to-back years and CAA Football has done it twice (2003- 04 & 2008-09). Massachusetts earned a national championship in 1998, beating perennial power Georgia Southern, 55-43. Along with the team accomplishments, the conference has accumulated numerous individual accolades. New Hampshire quarterback Ricky Santos (2006), William and Mary quarterback Lang Campbell (2004), Villanova running back Brian Westbrook (2001), Villanova wide receiver Brian Finneran (1997), New Hampshire running back Jerry Azumah (1998) and Towson running back Dave Meggett (1988) all have won the prestigious Walter Payton Award under the league banner. James Madison linebacker Derrick Lloyd (2001) and defensive lineman Arthur Moats (2009) each received the Buck Buchanan Award. New Hampshire’s Sean McDonnell (2005), James Madison’s Mickey Matthews (1999 & 2008), Villanova’s Andy Talley (1997) and Boston University’s Dan Allen (1993) have earned the Eddie Robinson National Coach of the Year Award. Delaware’s K.C. Keeler (2010), Richmond’s Mike London (2008), Matthews (2004), Massachusetts’ Mark Whipple (1998) and Talley (1997 & 2009) have garnered the American Football Coaches Association National Coach of the Year honor. Success beyond the collegiate playing field can be measured in numerous ways. CAA Football has had 98 players drafted by NFL franchises dating back to 1948. A total of 24 players have been selected in the draft over the last 10 years, including the league’s second-highest draft pick ever -- former Delaware Blue Hen quarterback Joe Flacco (18th overall to the Baltimore Ra-vens). The league has also excelled in graduating student-athletes as 10 programs have earned NCAA Public Recognition Awards over the last three years for ranking among the Top 10 percent of the FCS in the NCAA’s Academic Progress Rating system. The CAA Football geographic footprint encompasses much of the East Coast with schools located from Maine to Virginia. Current members include Delaware, James Madison, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Old Dominion, Rhode Island, Richmond, Towson, Villanova and William and Mary, while Georgia State will join the fold as a full member in 2012. While CAA Football officially began March 1, 2007, its roots date back more than 60 years. On December 3, 1946, the Code of the Yankee Conference went into effect. Established as an all-sports conference for the New England land grant colleges, the six charter members included Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Vermont. Upon the formation of Division I-AA football in 1978, the league disbanded all sports except football. Delaware and Richmond were admitted to the conference in 1986, Villanova was added in 1988 and James Madison, Northeastern and William and Mary joined the league in 1993. The Atlantic 10 assumed operation control of the conference from 1997- 2006, with Hofstra becoming part of the league in 2001 and Towson joining the group in 2004.
