The mission of Endicott College is to instill in students an understanding of and an appreciation for professional and liberal studies. Deeply woven within this philosophy is the concept of applied learning, which has been the hallmark of Endicott. Linking classroom and off-campus work experience through required internships remains the most distinguishing feature of the College.

Endicott has a vision for the total development of the individual within a community that fosters an appreciation of diversity, international awareness, community service, and moral and ethical values. Endicott is an innovative and vibrant, student-centered institution that supports undergraduate and graduate students in their pursuit of knowledge.

Common threads run through the fabric of the Endicott experience: increased self-confidence, stronger professional skills and technological competencies, and perhaps the most valued of all, lives open to change.

endicott facts & figures

I chose Endicott because it is a comfortable place that al-lowed me to take advantage of everything I was looking for. When I was touring the campus it gave a homey feeling that was easy to transition to. Endicott is also in a great loca-tion, on the beach, and right outside Boston. There are many things around this location that meet everyone’s needs. I chose Endicott because it allows me to balance school, football, and my social life; also the class sizes are smaller which gives you more time to interact with the professors. I chose DIII because I knew I would be able to come in and compete right away for playing time. I also chose DIII be-cause there are no scholarships and everyone that is playing plays for the love of the game and not for the money. DIII allows me to keep playing the game and balance everything else I have going on. – Craig Lussier

Endicott is an amazing place that instantly grew on me. Being that I was a transfer student three years removed from playing my last football game, I was looking for a school that not only had great academics but also had a football team that I could immediately make an impact on. Endicott fit that mold to perfection and added much more. With a beautiful ocean front campus, a proven internship program and a campus over flowing with faculty, coaches, and fellow students who were willing to lend a helping hand, Endicott was a no-brainer for me. From my experience from the past two years I have attended Endicott, I have learned that DIII student-athletes are as passionate for the sports they are playing than any other athlete in the world. We play the sport for all the right reasons. The most rewarding experience about playing with a DIII athlete is, when you step out on the field you know you are surrounded by teammates who are out there with you because they truly love the game. – Oscar Moore

Choosing Endicott was a decision that I made due to the support that I felt I would receive from the school. I knew that when choosing schools I had to do what was best for my academics and secondly for my athletics. Endicott not only showed me that I can receive peer tutoring and that professors are always available to help, but the football program also takes its academics seriously. Along with practice every day we have two study halls a week in order to help student-athletes get their work situated and receive help while doing so. I realize the benefits to DIII football and the benefits of a smaller school. We aren’t being paid, we aren’t on scholarship, we are here playing our respective sports out of pure love for the game. If we didn’t want to be here we wouldn’t. There is nothing stopping us from leaving the team to be full-time students. DIII sports are all about passion, love, and drive. We play the game because we enjoy it and because we want to, not because we have to. – Marcell Cooper

The Endicott football program waved goodbye to a star-studded cast of seniors that accumulated numerous All-American, Academic All-

American, All-Region, Player of the Year, Rookie of the Year, All-Division, and Academic All-Conference awards on graduation day but looking ahead, Head Coach JB Wells, who enters his 10th season at the helm of Gulls football, sees a motivated group of returners and newcomers eager to return to NEFC Championship glory.

“This group is a team,” says Wells. “This year will be different because there are no individual stars, no highly decorated guys about to be deco-rated again. This group is going to play with a chip on their shoulder, anxious to prove we’re still a good football program despite losing all those big name players.”

At several different positions on the field, players who were waiting in the wings for two or possible three seasons will finally get their crack at a full-time workload. Players that could probably be starters at other programs patiently waited for their turn to represent the Blue and Green as a starter on the gridiron at Endicott Stadium. Despite a crop of fresh new faces to the starting lineup, the goal for the 2012 Endicott football season remains the same.

“Our goal never changes: win games and play in the postseason. As a 10-win team last year that missed out on the NEFC Championship, we learned to win the games you’re supposed to win and you’ll find yourself competing for a title.”

“Our other goal is to focus on bettering ourselves every day and not thinking about who we are playing. Put in the work in the offseason, at preseason, at practice, and then on game day. We have an experienced coaching staff that will prepare for our opponent, but we don’t want our guys wrapped up in who it is.”

Four senior captains will provide individual strengths and unique leader-ship methods this season: running back Jared DiBiase, offensive lineman Ian Suter, defensive lineman Oscar Moore, and linebacker Craig Lussier. The coaches go through an extensive search for the next season’s cap-tains in the spring semester and Wells praises his four captains for what he expects each of them to bring to the table.

“We have one guy who is great at speaking to the team, another who is good at loosening players up, a guy who we consider to be the enforcer and another who is mature and capable of seeing the big picture. We are lucky to have such a diverse set of high-character captains to lead this team.”

With the loss of the 2011 NEFC Offensive Player of the Year and the program’s leader in every passing category, quarterback Phil Konopka, the Gulls will take a look a three viable candidates under center hoping to find one that will rise above the rest. Junior David St. Pierre, a NEFC Academic All-Conference honoree last season, showed good leadership and charisma after the spring season. Athletic with a big arm, sopho-more Drew Frenette is also in the mix out of the returning players. Ryan McLaughlin, a sophomore transfer from Division II Southern Connecticut

has displayed a tremendous amount of physical ability and looks to com-pete for the job at preseason. The coaching staff will look for the next Endicott quarterback to have physical ability, command of the offense, and the ability to lead the team on the field.

The Blue and Green are loaded at the running back position in 2012 with captain Jared DiBiase and fellow senior Mike Wheeler providing a deadly one-two punch in the backfield. DiBiase, who has served as backup to four-time NEFC All-Conference and Capital One Academic All-American Mike Lane, is a hard runner who Wells says would be a starter on any other team were it not for the talent ahead of him. Wheeler, also a special teams MVP, possesses a ton of speed with the ability to bust out a long run at any moment. Wells plans to use both guys to increase production at the running back position that in 2011 ran for 198.5 yards per game with 23 touchdowns in 11 games.

Senior Mike Murphy returns to headline an Endicott receiving core that is looking at expanded roles after taking over for Ryan Carino and Mike Fimiani who amassed a combined 221 receptions for 2,293 yards and 20 touchdowns over their careers. Murphy, a 2012 Preseason All-American, broke out for 44 catches, 843 yards and seven touchdowns as a junior last season and was named NEFC First Team All-Conference. Seniors Cam Lett and Jimmy Nguyen will take a larger role this fall but will also be pushed by junior Matt Smith for playing time. Ethan Curry, who moves from quarterback to receiver, is a great athlete looking to make an impact as is Nate Lewis, who has worked hard on his route running and catching skills in the offseason.

Taking over the tight end responsibilities from All-American Tay-lor Allen, who signed an undrafted rookie contract with the Jack-sonville Jaguars this summer, will be junior Greg Dellorco, who Wells describes as a “hard-nosed, throwback player.” Dellorco is a great blocker and hitter, capable of outworking his opponent on the line, but also makes big plays in the passing game.

Endicott’s offensive line took a hit with the loss of four legend-ary seniors including NEFC First Team All-Conference guard Nick Molinari, NEFC Second Team All-Conference tackle and captain Sean Gaffney, and Capital One Academic All-American center Mike Zupkosky. Wells, however, is happy that senior guard and captain Ian Suter is returning out to prove a point after his play was overshadowed by the strength of last year’s offensive line. Pat McMenimen, who played in some Endicott’s biggest games in program history over his career, will be injected into the starting lineup as a guard. Junior Casey McDonnell will get first crack at the center duties after learning behind Zupkosky and is poised for a breakout season after a strong spring. Junior Alec Gat-zogiannis and sophomore Mike Marini will serve as the team’s tackles. Gatzogiannis has shown good technique and athleticism while Marini doesn’t wilt under pressure and plays with a chip on his shoulder. Anthony Fullmine and Andrew Edwards will also be in the mix as well as a few freshman lineman expected to have a solid preseason camp.

The defensive line gets a serious shakeup with the loss of Kevin Eagan, one of the best defensive ends to ever come out of New England and all of Division III. Eagan wrapped up his career as an All-American with 371 tackles, 70 tackles or a loss, 23.5 sacks, seven forced fumbles, and seven fumble recoveries. Like Allen, Eagan signed an undrafted rookie contract with the Indianapolis

Colts over the summer. Captain Oscar Moore moves from out-side linebacker to defensive end and after the spring season, has looked like a natural at the position. Junior Marcell Cooper, who rotated into the defensive line his first two years, comes into pre-season in the best shape of his career and will continue to give opposing lineman fits. Tim Murray, a junior transfer from Hobart, has good size and athletic ability and will occupy the other end position. Seniors Kevin Pressey and Juan Fortich as well as junior Alex Filomeno will be rotated into action.

The strength of the Endicott defense lies in their linebacker core with NEFC First Team All-Conference Peter Kallas and NEFC Sec-ond Team All-Conference and captain Craig Lussier taking up the inside. Kallas was second on the team as a junior last year with 63 tackles, including 7.5 for a loss of yardage, two forced fumbles and a recovery. Lussier finished right behind his teammate with 52 takedowns. Junior Nick Kozlowski also figures to be an in-side linebacker threat. The outside linebackers for the Endicott defense will be senior PJ Bandini and junior Andrew Holfinger. Bandini turned in a career year as a junior, finishing fourth on the team in tackles with 47 with 12.5 going for a loss of yard-age. Five of Holfinger’s 17 tackles in 2011 were behind the line of scrimmage. Junior Kyle Connolly, who had a good spring, and sophomore Eric Dwinell, slowed by injuries last fall, is expected to be healthy to play a role for the linebackers.

This season’s defensive backfield is comprised of experienced safeties that will be in charge of leading relatively inexperienced corners who step into a larger role with the departure of two-time NEFC First Team All-Conference and captain Bill Hickey. Junior safety Jason Silva returns after finishing his 2011 Academic All-American campaign among the NCAA leaders in interceptions.

Silva is once again on the national radar as a first time Preseason All-American. He is joined by safeties Andrew Lawson and Mike Lago who gained significant experience last season. At the corner position, junior Sean Griffith looks to take his game to the next level while Davas Wright, Jake Cox, Tyler Redding, and Mike Ro-manelli will be expected to step up into high impact roles this fall.

The strongest and most consistent aspects of Endicott’s game this fall comes from junior Dylan Rushe, an All-American and two-time Fred Mitchell Award nominee, who enters this season as the team’s primary placekicker and punter. Rushe has broke and set numerous field goal records within the program, regional and national levels through only two seasons at Endicott. He ranked second in the country in field goals per game and 27th in overall scoring while sitting on top of the NEFC rankings in each of those categories. Wells expects that Jason Mawicki, a transfer from Catholic University, will be mixed in at the punter position to chal-lenge Rushe while Robbie DiTommaso could get some action on kickoffs.

The return game features kickoff specialist and running back Mike Wheeler, and punt return specialist Cameron Lett. Wheeler returned two kickoffs for touchdowns in his first season with the Gulls last year, including a 77-yard return in the ECAC North Bowl Championship. Lett is a reliable punt returner with good hands and does well avoiding losing yardage. Center Casey McDonnell will take over the long snapping duties from Taylor Allen and quar-terback David St. Pierre will continue to be the holder. Wells expects younger players to make their presence known in special teams coverage before taking on larger roles on the team. Spring-field College transfer, running back Andrew Cummings, could be in the mix in the return game.

Wells, who coaches the offensive line, welcomes back Associate Head Coach Tony Volpone for his sixth season at Endicott. Volpone acts as offensive coordinator and coaches the quarterbacks as well as runs the team’s recruiting efforts. Also coaching on of-fense will be receivers and special teams coach Drew Canan, tight ends coach Paul McGonagle, former Maine and Merrimack running back Keon Coleman who will work with those skill players, and of-fensive assistant Mark Ledbetter, 2012 graduate of Endicott who was a four-year offensive lineman for the Gulls. On the defensive side, defensive coordinator and defensive backs coach Bob Hol-mes enters his fifth year with the team. Todd Lemoine will handle the linebackers and Jason Scott will coach the defensive line. Like Ledbetter, Chris Gogolos returns to Endicott after playing four years as a NEFC Academic All-Conference defensive lineman and will be a defensive assistant.

Endicott opens their season on September 1st on the road against last year’s NEFC runner up Framingham State before tak-ing on a new opponent in Castleton State for the team’s home opener. Week three features Bridgewater State, another strong opponent out of the NEFC Bogan Division to provide a challenging beginning to the 2012 schedule. Endicott’s first divisional game is week four against Salve Regina, another favorite to contend for the NEFC Championship.

“Every game is a challenge,” says Wells. “We need to focus on ourselves and making our team better every day. Success will come out of the work we put in.” n

2012 Roster

JB Wells

The Endicott football team has only known one head coach since its var-

sity season back in 2003. The program, under 10th year head coach JB Wells, has certainly flourished on the field in a limited amount of time thanks to a NEFC Championship and NCAA Tournament ap-pearance in 2010, an ECAC North Bowl victory last fall, and an overall record of 53-38 (.582) over nine seasons. Wells, seemingly, takes the most pride in incorporating football into the broader goal of creating a memorable college experience.

“Our job as coaches is to be educa-tors,” says Wells, who enters his 22nd year of coaching collegiate football.

“We want to be the best football pro-gram, but we also want to make sure that we are developing good students, good athletes, and good people. I want to contribute to a player’s education in all areas, not just on the field.”

The results of Wells’ philosophy on football have been astounding. En-dicott football players have produced 143 NEFC Academic All-Conference winners, two Capital One Academic All-America honorees, a Hal Chalm-ers Award Winner (NEFC Scholar-

Athlete of the Year), produced countless team community service hours, and served as admis-sions tour guides amongst other things.

On the field, Wells has helped develop six All-Americans, six D3Football.com All-Region win-ners, two ECAC North Players of the Year and eight ECAC North All-Stars, two NEFC Defensive Players of the Year, a NEFC Offensive Player of the Year, two NEFC Rookies of the Year, 66 NEFC All-Division winners and two standouts that earned undrafted rookie contracts from the NFL.

Endicott’s success can be attributed to a vari-ety of factors including organized and purposeful practice methods, the dedication of Wells’ coor-dinators and assistant coaches, and a challenging offseason training program that prepares players for the rigors of a long gridiron season.

“We don’t waste a second of time at practice. Every drill that we do is directly correlated to something that we have seen on film to prepare us for the next Saturday. Our players are con-sistently engaged at practice because we don’t spend more than 10 minutes on a single drill. It keeps things fresh, it keeps the players moving and thinking, and helps our coaches too.”

“The offseason is most important for our on the field success because if you think about it, there are two weeks of preseason, a 10-week playing

season, then 40 weeks of offseason. We are a year-round football program and we expect our players to buy into that. It’s not just strength and conditioning, but our players focus on academics, team building, leadership development, commu-nity service, and other things.”

At the end of the day, Wells promotes account-ability as a core value that all his players should possess in order to create a cohesive unit on the field. The results tie into the program’s emphasis on team and leadership development.

“Players in our program understand that their actions affect somebody else. They will naturally be accountable to the coach holding the whistle at practice. We tell our guys that good teams are accountable to their coach, but great teams are accountable to their teammates. The coaches know that if the players embrace this philosophy, then there are going to be some exceptional lead-ers on the team.”

The Gulls are coming off a record-breaking sea-son in which they went 10-1 (a program record for wins) with an ECAC North Bowl Championship over Mount Ida and are just one season removed from their NCAA Tournament appearance after claiming the 2010 NEFC Championship.
