Reynolds Named CAA Defensive Player of the Week: Redshirt-sophomore cornerback Taylor Reynolds has been named the Colonial Athletic Association Defensive Player of the Week, the league announced earlier this week . This is his first CAA weekly recognition this year and the ninth by a JMU player this season . Reynolds was instrumental in the Dukes’ resounding 55-20 thumping of the then-No . 14 Richmond Spiders in Robins Stadium . The cornerback had eight total tackles (seven of them solo) along with two interception returns for touchdowns, two forced fumbles for touchbacks and two additional pass breakups . Reynolds got the second touchdown for Madison when he intercepted a Michael Strauss pass at the JMU 45 and returned it 55 yards to put JMU up 14-0 midway in the first quarter . Then in the second quarter, he punched out a fumble on a rush that rolled 25 yards into the end zone and was recovered by senior safety Dean Marlowe for the touchback, ending the scoring threat . Early in the third quarter, Richmond was headed to the end zone on a run that Reynolds punched out from behind at the JMU 1 and rolled through the back of the end zone for another touchback . Reynolds then added his second interception of the game later in the third, picking off a pass at the UR 46 and returning it for a school-record second interception return for a touchdown to put the Dukes up 41-20 .

Everett Withers is in his first season as the head football coach at James Madison University. “We are so thrilled to welcome Coach Withers and his family to James Madison,” Jeff Bourne

Director of Athletics said. “Everett is a proven winner and has shown his ability to lead, having spent time as a head coach. The entire committee was incredibly impressed when we met with him, and I have no doubt that he will be a great leader for our football program and mentor to our student-athletes for many years to come.”“Coach Withers impressed us greatly not only with his experience on the field, but also with

his strong commitment to the student-athlete,” JMU President Jonathan Alger said. “Coach With-ers is dedicated to JMU’s educational mission and believes that his team’s success begins in the classroom. He and his wife Kara have also emphasized the importance of being active partici-pants in the community. I am confident that Coach Withers, his wife Kara, and their two chil-dren Tia and Pierce will be valuable additions to the JMU family and the community at large.”A 26-year coaching veteran, Withers comes to the Shenandoah Valley from Ohio State Univer-

sity, where he served as assistant head coach, co-defensive coordinator and safeties coach for the past two years. During his time with the Buckeyes, he has been a part of a school-record 24-game win streak and a 24-1 mark heading into the upcoming Discover Orange Bowl against No. 12 Clemson. In 2012, OSU compiled a perfect 12-0 record and finished No. 3 in the national rankings. The undefeated 2012 slate was only the sixth unbeaten/untied season in school history, as Ohio State ranked second in the Big Ten with 14 interceptions and all four starting defensive backs earned All-Big Ten Conference recognition.During his career, Withers has split time between the collegiate and professional coaching

ranks, having worked in the NCAA Division I level for 19 years and in the National Football League for seven seasons. Withers’ collegiate coaching resume includes 11 years as a defensive coordinator with a vast majority of his time - 17 seasons - spent also coaching the defensive backfield.Prior to accepting his position with

Ohio State in December 2012, With-ers spent four years at the University of North Carolina. He was promoted to interim head coach at the school in July 2011 and he led the Tar Heels to a 7-6 overall record and to a berth in the Independence Bowl against Missouri. His Tar Heel defenses were top notch. His first unit - 2008 - ranked eighth in the country with 20 interceptions, a number that was just one off the UNC single-season record. His 2009 defense was among the nation’s elite, ranking sixth in total defense, 10th against the run, 13th in scoring and 14th in pass defense. His 2010 unit ranked fourth in the Atlan-tic Coast Conference and 30th nationally. Five play-ers off that unit were taken

James Madison Uni-versity Athletics Depart-ment will recognize JMU Football’s and Track and Field’s founder and first head coach Challace Mc-Millin at the Elon foot-ball game, Nov . 22, for his lifetime achievements within Athletics .

“My time at JMU has been challenging, excit-ing, rewarding and awe-some,” McMillin said . “It has given me the opportu-nity to do what I have a

passion for and that is to coach and teach young people . I have always believed that teaching and coaching is “touching tomor-row” and being at JMU has allowed me to meet that goal . To have the rare opportunity to start the JMU football and track & field programs was special . To be able to see those programs develop and to continue to work with the JMU Athletic Depart-ment has been very rewarding .”

“Coach Mac is one of the icons of our university and athlet-ics program,” said Jeff Bourne, JMU Director of Athletics . “Over the years, Challace has made incredible contributions that in many ways define our program today and the culture we expect for our student-athletes and coaches . As a coach, mentor, peer or friend, Challace’s impact will forever be a part of JMU Athlet-ics .”

A 1994 inductee into the JMU Athletics Hall of Fame, Mc-Millin was a two-sport coach at Madison, start-ing both the football and track and field programs, coaching the latter for four years . He spent 14 years as JMU’s football head coach, building a program and then re-building it when the uni-versity began awarding scholarships . The pro-gram began in 1972 and McMillin built his team with players first re-cruited in class registra-tion lines before the sea-son . In 1975, his fourth team had JMU’s only unbeaten season (9-0-1), and his 1976 Dukes were tied for the No . 1 spot in the nation in the first Division III poll . He led JMU to a No . 9 national ranking in 1978 and then oversaw the Dukes’ move to the scholarship level . His 1982 team was 8-3 and nationally ranked in Division I-AA . For his efforts, he earned eight Coach of the Year awards from various organizations during his coaching stint . McMillin

had a 64-52-1 JMU record, and several of his former players have had distinguished professional football careers, including Gary Clark, Charles Haley and Scott Norwood .

“In 1982, I walked on to this great campus and my expec-tation was to get away from the country and working in the fields,” Haley, the only five-time Super Bowl champion, said in a recent interview . “I saw this as an opportunity to get away and do something that I love . I love the game of football . God knows Coach McMillin gave me the opportunity to walk out on this field and play . I cherish the moments that I played here .

“My relationship with Coach McMillin has always been the same,” Haley continued . “We’ve been talking ever since I left . He is one of the greatest human beings I have ever known . He was a man that took an angry man and got him to un-ball his fists . I cannot say how much I love this man because of what he has done for me in making me not only a great football player but a man .”

During his time as JMU’s football coach, McMillin was an instruc-tor at JMU and contin-ued that following his time on the sidelines . From 1985-2003, he was a professor at Madi-son, coordinating the coaching education pro-gram . During that time, he earned the VAHPERD College/University Phys-ical Educator of the Year award in 2000 . He has continued teaching at the university while re-turning back to the athletic department in 2003 as a mental train-ing coach working with individuals, teams and coaching staffs . In honor of that service, the university named both the sports psychology and student-athlete services centers after McMillin .

“The development of the Challace McMillin Sport Psychol-ogy Center and the Challace McMillin Education Center for Student Athletes is a great honor for me,” McMillin continued . “These centers have given the JMU student-athletes great support and will continue to give them important help and resources . I have always told my coaches and my student-athletes that we are “Planting Trees” that will become “A Forest” and will con-tinue to grow . I have helped develop that forest and I believe it will continue to grow . I am blessed to have been part of the JMU Athletic Department . I am very proud of what I have done and how the Athletic Department has developed .”

A 1964 graduate of Rhodes College, McMillin played four years of football, earning All-West Tennessee in his career . He was also a three-year letterwinner in track during his collegiate career . He later earned his master’s in education from Memphis State University and then his doctorate in sports psychology from the University of Virginia in 1990 .

Jeff bOurNeJeff Bourne is in his second decade as JMU’s athlet-

ics director, having already overseen a period of dra-matic enhancements on behalf of all of the university’s student-athletes and coaches. At JMU, Bourne leads a program that is competitive within the Colonial Athletic Association as well as at regional and national levels and that has positioned itself to continue to play a major role in intercollegiate athletics.

Bourne has overseen processes to ensure the academic, athletic and social success of all JMU student-athletes. In the most recent release, JMU saw its Graduation Success Rate remain above 82 percent for the ninth straight year, with a 100 percent degree completion rate. When Bourne arrived at JMU, the graduation rate among student-athletes was 71 percent and the overall student rate 79 percent. Annual fundraising has improved dramatically under Bourne’s leadership, with an overall increase of more than 400 percent during the past eight years. Student-athlete support services and facility improvements also have been highlights of the past 10 years.

JMU enjoys a tremendous academic reputation nationally as evidenced by its continued placement among national and regional publications. For the 16th consecutive year the university ranked as the top public, master’s-level university in the South in the highly regarded annual poll on academic quality conducted by U.S. News & World Report for its guide-book, 2010 America’s Best Colleges.

During Bourne’s tenure more than 1,600 confer-ence academic honors have been given to JMU student-athletes, including CAA scholar-athletes, CAA commissioner’s academic award winners and ECAC scholar-athletes of the year. JMU also has had four student-athletes receive NCAA post-graduate scholar-ships. Over the last three years, more than 2,500 academic awards, including Dean’s List, President’s List and the CAA Commissioners Awards, have been presented to JMU student-athletes.

Perhaps the best measure of success is the NCAA’s Academic Progress Rate. JMU has ranked well above the NCAA minimum standard for each of the pro-gram’s rating periods, and no JMU teams have been subject to APR-related penalties.

Providing outstanding athletics facilities is a primary focus, and JMU will continue to make significant prog-ress in this front during the coming year. In 2009-10, the new Veterans Memorial Stadium complex for base-ball and softball was completed; work was recently completed in summer of 2011 on the first phase of the new University Park, including practice and competi-tion facilities for soccer, lacrosse, track and field and cross country with field hockey to follow in the near future; and the $62 Million, 20-month process to reno-vate Bridgeforth Stadium/Zane Showker Field finished prior to the 2011 season.

The football stadium expansion project increased seating at the facility to nearly 25,000 and featured major enhancements, including private suites and club level seating, improved concessions and restroom facilities, improved lighting, and a new media facility.

Under Bourne, JMU has developed an enhanced volunteer fundraising network and a point-priority system to recognize donor participation and has implemented programs to increase game attendance and address the needs of athletics infrastructure. These efforts have resulted in unprecedented levels of suc-cess in fundraising while driving football attendance to all-time records.

Major program enhancements in student-athlete

services and academic advis-ing, sports medicine and strength and conditioning have added to the overall quality of the student-athlete experience as demon-strated in annual senior exit interviews and peer program evaluations. Annual evaluation and information data also is incorporated into a strategic planning and reporting process to enhance the organizational structure of the athletics division with the primary focus on meeting the needs of student-athletes and coaches.

“We’re very proud of the accomplishments we’ve had and I am quite fortunate to work with and serve a tremendous group of coaches and a talented sup-port team. We will continue to work together toward the common goals of ensuring the success of our student-athletes in all of their endeavors -- academi-cally, athletically and socially,” Bourne said. “Our goals are to win conference championships and to advance our teams to post-season play while adhering to NCAA and conference guidelines and to graduate our student-athletes.

“We continue to strengthen the infrastructure and facilities of the athletics program,” Bourne continued. “Our support centers and athletics personnel are dedi-cated to providing student-athletes with the best expe-rience possible at the intercollegiate level. We also are extremely pleased with the construction of the Robert and Frances Plecker Athletic Performance Center, which benefits all of our student-athletes with state-of-the-art academic facilities and serves as an entrance and focal point for our football stadium. Other athlet-ics facilities construction that is being planned and implemented on campus -- immediately new baseball and softball stadiums and enhancement of our football facility and later upgrades for other programs -- will provide JMU with outstanding competition sites.”

The Plecker Performance Center, which opened in 2005, was the first significant facility project funded primarily through private resources in JMU athletics’ history. The $10 mil-lion facility is adjacent to Bridgeforth Stadium/Zane Showker Field and features support areas for football and areas for entertaining during home football games and for JMU’s athletic hall of fame. Also included is the Challace McMillin Academic Center that benefits performers in all JMU sports programs. Advising and counseling for all of JMU student-athletes take place at the facility, which also includes an outstanding computer lab and strength training and sports medi-cine facilities.

Bridgeforth Stadium/Zane Showker Field, the home of JMU’s football program, has a large electronic videoboard with live game action and video replay capabilities, an

outstanding FieldTurf playing surface and an enhanced sound system added in recent years.

Prior to arriving at JMU in 1999, Bourne served in several athletics roles at Virginia Tech from 1986-97 and was senior associ-ate athletics director at Georgia Tech from 1997-99. At Georgia Tech, he supervised finance, marketing and promotions, ticket-ing, sports information, and radio and television broadcasts and production. He also was liaison to the Alexander-Tharpe fund, the university’s development arm, and administered baseball and golf.

At Virginia Tech, he was associate athlet-ics director during his final two years, and he co-chaired a committee that reviewed

gender equity at the school. The committee developed and implemented a plan that brought the school into compliance with federal guidelines and ranked it fifth nationally in compliance.

A Salem, Va., native, Bourne was Virginia Tech’s athletics business manager and then associate athletics director for administration and finance.

Bourne received his Bridgewater College degree in business administration and accounting in 1981 and completed his master’s degree in education and sports management at Virginia Tech in 1994. He worked for four years in public accounting and received his certification in public accountancy before moving to Virginia Tech, where he first was an internal auditor and a consultant to the athletic business office. He is a 1994 graduate of the Sports Management Institute Executive Program from the University of North Carolina and the University of Southern California.

The Bourne family bleeds purple and gold. Bourne’s wife, the former Mary Lou Garber, is a Harrisonburg native,Bridgewater graduate, and received a master’s degree at JMU in integrated science and technology in 2004. She serves as the Director of Technology Innovation at James Madison. They have two sons: Jason, a 2011 JMU graduate is employed at JMU as a Special Gifts Fundraising Officer, while his fiancee Megan Martin, also a 2011 JMU graduate, is the Social Media and Marketing Coordinator for JMU Office of Residence Life. Kyle graduated from JMU in 2014 and works for Goldman Sachs in New York City.

James Madison University football in 2004 made history at the team and national levels.

The 13-2 Dukes won the NCAA Division I-AA title with a playoff effort that became increasingly impressive as the postseason pro-gressed. JMU took the national crown without hosting a playoff game, becoming the first Division I-AA team to win three playoff road contests in a season.

JMU won with depth and balance, consistent play that included Division I-AA’s second-ranked run defense (86.8 yards per game), good special teams play, and an offense that developed a power-ful running attack and avoided mistakes. The Dukes won seven games by 10 or fewer points and were particularly effective late in contests.

JMU won 17-0 at Villanova after a scoreless first 36 minutes and beat Massachusetts 28-7 after a scoreless first 40 minutes. The Dukes won 24-20 at Maine with a touch-down with 0:48 left and beat Delaware 20-13 with an 87-yard punt return for a score with 3:04 left and by stopping the Hens after they had a first-down-and-goal situation from the three during the next drive.

After tying for the Atlantic 10 title (7-1 record), JMU was disappointed not to get a home playoff game. However, the Dukes responded with a 14-13 first-round win at Lehigh and then won by the same score at Furman, driving 74 yards during the final 5:11 for the decisive touchdown.

JMU avenged its lone Division I-AA loss of the year by winning 48-34 at William & Mary in a nation-ally televised (ESPN) Friday night game and beat Montana 31-21 for the NCAA title the following Friday in Chattanooga, Tenn., before another national television audience.

The Dukes took a 21-0 lead at William & Mary, fell behind 26-21 early in the second half, and then dominated play with 28 straight points in an 18-minute period.

JMU was equally effective during the last three quarters against Montana, running for 314 yards over-all and holding the ball for 36:13 of the game’s 60 minutes.

JMU’s play helped Mickey Matthews gain Division I-AA coach of the year honors from the American Football Coaches Association, and several Dukes received major awards.

Offensive guard Matt Magerko and free safety Tony LeZotte led the award recipients. Magerko was first-team All-America by Associated Press, and LeZotte was first-team by I-AA.org, second team by Associated Press and Football Weekly and third-team by The Sports Network. Linebacker Kwynn Walton was third-team All-America by The Sports Network, and safety Rodney McCarter was a Football Foundation All-America. LeZotte was the Atlantic 10 co-rookie of the year.

Tailback Raymond Hines was team MVP after running for 1,038 yards. He became a starter at mid-season when Alvin Banks and Maurice Fenner were hurt and became only the fourth Duke to run for 1,000 yards during a season. Fenner (117 yards at William & Mary, 164 vs. Montana) and Banks (88 yards vs. Montana) stepped back into the spotlight for the final two playoff games after Hines was hurt at William & Mary.

Quarterback Justin Rascati threw for 2,045 yards and 14 touch-downs, ran for 10 scores, and was intercepted only five times in 283 passes.

Team defensive MVP Trey Townsend and Walton as linebackers, LeZotte, and McCarter led the defense. LeZotte set a team freshman record with 144 tackles, Townsend had 102 tackles and five inter-ceptions, McCarter had 92 stops, and Walton had 88 tackles.

Cornerback Clint Kent, who had 73 tackles for the season, returned an interception 69 yards for a score at Wiliam & Mary and sealed JMU’s title-game win over Montana with an interception.

“And now, presenting ‘Virginia’s Finest,’ The James Madison University Marching Royal Dukes!”

This familiar announcement begins each exciting halftime as one of America’s premier college marching bands takes the field. From humble beginnings in 1972, the Marching Royal Dukes have quickly become recognized as one of the top college march-ing band programs in the country. With a membership made up primarily of non-music majors, the band is one of the largest and most visible student organizations on campus. As a class, the MRDs rehearse five days a week, perform at all home football games, travel to away game to support the Dukes, and also play an active role in community events and perform extensively around Virginia and the Mid-Atlantic region as an exhibition band for band contests and other events.

During their short history, the band has established an impressive resume of performances and awards. The MRDs have performed at NFL games in Pittsburgh, Baltimore, and Washington. In 1983, they were the featured halftime show for the NFC title game between Washington and Dallas. Additionally they have performed for Walt Disney Productions, and have made several appearances as the premier band for the Richmond Christmas Parade. In 1988

and 1991, they were the featured exhibition at the Bands of America Grand National Championships in Indianapolis, Indiana.

In 1994 the John Philip Sousa Foundation named the Marching Royal Dukes the recipients of the Sudler Trophy, a prestigious award known as “the Heisman Trophy of college marching bands.” In 1997 and 2001, the MRDs were featured in the inaugural parades for Presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush. Additionally in 2002, 2006, and 2010 respectively they have performed at the inauguration ceremonies for Virginia Governors Mark Warner, Tim Kaine, and Bob McDonnell. Over the past forty-two years the band has established a strong tradition

as ambassadors of the university and community. The Marching Royal Dukes have taken five trips abroad: their first European tour in 1997, where they performed for the closing ceremonies of the 700th anniver-sary of the Grimaldi Family in Monaco. In December 2000, the MRDs performed at a New Year’s celebration in Athens before an audience of more than 500,000. In December of 2003 and 2006, the band was the feature band for the New Year’s celebration in Dublin, Ireland. The MRDs took their fifth tour abroad in 2010, with a trip to London and Paris where they performed in the 25th Anniversary London New Year’s Day Parade. In 2014 they will tour Italy and perform at the Vatican for the Rome New Year’s Day Parade and Festival. The MRDs have made three appearances in the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day

Parade in 2001, 2008, and 2013. Scott Rikkers is the Director of the Marching Royal Dukes. Chad Reep is

an Assistant Director of the Marching Royal Dukes and Director of the JMU Pep Band. J.R. Snow is an Assistant Director of the Marching Royal Dukes and the Visual Coordinator. Steve Cash is the Drumline Instructor and Percussion Coordinator, Michael Overman is the Front Ensemble Instructor, and Hunter Desper is the Percussion Assistant. Carly Philp, Erin Fairchild, and Laura Milford are the Colorguard Instructors. Julia Urban is the coach of the JMU Dance Team, the “Dukettes”. The JMU band program is also staffed by Connie Driscoll, Administrative Assistant, Drew Ross, Graduate Assistant, and Elizabeth Keene, Band Assistant.

The 2014 Marching Royal Dukes Drum Majors are Lindsey Martin, Ciara Middleton, John Nye, Nick Pope, and Nathan Saxman.
