The Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (GLIAC) was founded in 1972. During the two years previous to the GLIAC’s founding, several attempts were made to create a new NCAA

College Division conference. In 1971, the Great Lakes Athletic Conference was formed, but plans for the new conference were put on hold and several of the participating schools subsequently withdrew their support.

However, the idea for a new conference did not die, and since 1972-73 the GLIAC has been a leader in the advancement and promotion of intercollegiate athletics for men and women.

The charter members of the GLIAC were Ferris State University, Grand Valley State University, Lake Superior State University, Northwood University and Saginaw Valley State University.

Expansion of the GLIAC began immediately with the addition of Oakland University in 1974. Hillsdale College and Northern Michigan University were accepted as members in 1975, while Wayne State University joined in 1976. In 1977, the conference lost its first member when Northern Michigan withdrew. Michigan Tech University filled the vacancy when it became a member in 1980.

After the 1986-87 season, Northwood left the conference and was replaced by Northern Michigan. Northwood rejoined the conference in 1992.

After the 1989 season, the conference dropped football as a sponsored sport. The conference schools sponsoring football joined the members of the Heartland Collegiate Conference in forming the football-only Midwest Intercollegiate Football Conference (MIFC), which began play in 1990.

After nine years of existence as one of the premier conferences in Division II football, the MIFC merged as part of GLIAC on July 1, 1999. With the merger, the University of Indianapolis became an associate member as a football-only school.

The GLIAC entered a new era in the 1995-96 school year. Prior to 1995-96, all member institutions of the GLIAC were located in the state of Michigan. On December 14, 1994, membership was offered to three schools located in Ohio and Pennsylvania. The expansion members were Ashland University of Ashland, Ohio, and Gannon University and Mercyhurst College, both located in Erie, Pa. All three schools began their membership July 1, 1995.

On July 1, 1997, membership was granted to The University of Findlay, located in Findlay, Ohio. Findlay replaced Oakland University, which withdrew from the conference after the 1996-97 season as it moved to NCAA Division I status.

Westminster College, located in New Wilmington, Pa., became the 14th member of the GLIAC when it accepted its expansion offer in May of 1997. On June 30, 2000 Westminster left the conference as it changed its affiliation to NCAA Division III.

Tiffin University, located in Tiffin, Ohio accepted an offer to join the GLIAC in June of 2007. The two Erie, Pa. schools (Gannon and Mercyhurst) left the conference at the conclusion of the 2007-08 academic year to join the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC).

Lake Erie College and Ohio Dominican University joined the GLIAC for the 2010-11 school year. Both schools are from Ohio.

Overall the GLIAC conducts championships in 21 sports, 11 for men and 10 for women. The policy-making body of the GLIAC is the Executive Council, which is comprised of three representatives from each member institution – its director of athletics, faculty athletics representative and senior woman administrator. Final approval of all GLIAC legislation is required by the Council of GLIAC Presidents.

As GLIAC commissioner, Dell Robinson is responsible for all conference administration. He is beginning his first season as the conference’s sixth commissioner.

More information about the GLIAC, its teams and staff members, is located at www.gliac.org.

2010 Recap

The Northern Michigan University football team concluded the 2010 season with a record of 5-6. NMU’s record in the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (GLIAC) was 5-5 which was good for a tie for third place in the North Division and tie for sixth overall in the GLIAC.

NMU started the season off with a non-conference loss against Minnesota State-Mankato (6-7). The ‘Cats went on to win the next three games against Findlay (49-10), Northwood (31-17) and a memorable homecom-ing game with Ashland (23-19), which saw the return of the 1975 National Championship team reconvene. The next two weeks the ‘Cats lost to Wayne State (18-26) and then number one ranked Grand Valley State (7-28). NMU lost junior signal caller Carter Kopach for the season in the game against Grand Valley which then shifted things for the offense. The last five weeks the ‘Cats struggled and only came out victorious in two of those games. NMU defeated Ferris State (22-20) and lost to Indianapolis in a nail bitter (5-6). NMU would rebound the following week by defeating Tiffin (43-14). The team struggled in the final two games losing to both Saginaw Valley (17-24) and rival Michigan Tech (0-12) in an ice bowl match up in Houghton.

Offensively NMU moved to the spread offense this season which would be noted as a multiple formation offense that would be set up to confuse opposing defenses. The ‘Cats averaged 278.5 yards a game in total offense (140.1 rushing and 138.5 passing). Kopach who lead in total offense (1,079 passing and 274 rushing) showed that he is the right person (back-to-back GLIAC Offensive Player of The Week in games against North-wood and Ashland) to guide this NMU offense, that will return a good core of its weapons next fall. John Privitelli led the ‘Cats on the ground with 693 yards on 170 carries as he scored a team-high five rushing touchdowns. Fullback Jared Buss carried the ball four times and gaining 26 yards with two touchdowns.

When Kopach went down for the season the ‘Cats turned to true freshmen Jacob Hicks. He was 45-92-4 for 420 yards and one touchdown.

Dustin Brancheau led the ‘Cats receiving corps with 38 receptions for 507 yards. He hauled in a team-high five touchdown catches. Newcomer Christian Marble-King saw action in and out of the backfield with the new spread offense. He finished with 27 catches for 299 yards and one score. Blake Crider and Craig Thompson made the switch from tight end to the wide receiver position and combined for three touchdowns on the season. Tony Awrey was the ‘Cats final top target and hauled in 12 catches for

165 yards and a score.Defensively the ‘Cats gave up

on average 253.6 yards a game and averaged 16.6 points a game in scoring defense. NMU was ranked first in the GLIAC in total defense and 8th in the country. Junior Ed-die Knoblock led the ‘Cats in total tackles with 83 total tackles (44 solo and 39 assisted). He also recorded a team-high five interceptions and returning two of those for scores. Zach Anderson was next on the list with 60 total tackles (26 solo and 34 assisted) and had 5.5 sacks with two forced fumbles. Anderson also fin-ished with 12 tackles for loss which was good for 9th in the GLIAC. DJ Catalano finished with a career high 57 total tackles (26 solo and 31 as-sisted). Josh Droese was right behind Catalano with 56 tackles (32 solo and 24 assisted).

As a group the ‘Cats intercept-ed 14 passes and returned three for touchdowns. Along with Knoblock’s two Marcus Tribble recorded the other score.

Garrett Peck handled the punting duties once again this year averaging 39.8 yards on 55 punts. 12 of those found their way inside the 20 yard line. Anthony Leandri and Rock Belmonte shared kick-offs this season. Leandri averaged 57.4 yards while Belmonte averaged 56.2 yards. Each kicker recorded one touchback. Belmonte connected on 11-18 field

goals with his longest being a 51 yarder. NMU placed 10 members on the GLIAC All-Conference

teams. Knoblock and DJ Oke each earned first team all honors. Anderson, Blessing and Ricky Neaves all were named to the sec-ond team. Brancheau, Privitelli, Catalano, Eric Wells and offensive linemen Jason Dumont each earned honorable mention.

The ‘Cats will open up the 2011 season at home on Thursday September 1, 2011 against Minnesota State-Mankato.

He was then head coach at Three Lakes, (Wis.) High School where he posted a 25-8 mark. His 1982 squad went 13-1 and was the Wisconsin State High School playoff runner-up.

NMU Profile

Life on Campus

The University: A regional public, coeducational university founded in 1899, Northern offers learning opportunities to ap-

proximately 9,400 undergraduate and graduate students. Each full-time student is issued a notebook computer as part of tuition and fees.

Location: NMU is located in an environment unrivaled by any other, on the south shore of Lake Superior in Marquette, Michigan, voted one of “America’s Most Livable Communities,” with breathtaking vistas and 20,000 lucky residents.

Campus: Named one of the “Most Unwired” campuses in the United States, we’re com-pletely connected with the latest technology. We’re large enough to offer scenic spaces and 50 quality facilities. There are high-end specialty computer labs, a learning resource center, a theater, a speech and hearing clinic, a student art gallery and univer-sity art museum, a

student radio station, public radio and TV stations, the Jacobetti Center for technical programs, an ice rink, a swimming pool and diving tank, a rock climbing wall, an all-events center and the Superior Dome, an 8,000 seat stadium (the largest wooden dome in the world). But we’re still small enough to keep everything within walking distance, which is especially nice in the winter.

Faculty: NMU has talented faculty members and a low student-to-faculty ratio of 22-to-1. Our average class size is 23, our average lab size is 16 and our average seminar size is 10. Of all entry-level courses, 70 percent are taught by career faculty.

The Superior Edge: Learn to live a life that matters. Other universities have leadership programs, but NMU is the only university in the country that packs leadership, community engagement, diversity awareness and real-world experience into one life-changing program. In the Superior Edge, students design their own volunteer, work and learning activities (up to 400 hours). Any NMU student regardless of class status or major is eligible to participate for

free. Each Superior Edge gradu-ate receives a student achieve-ment transcript along with their academic transcript. NMU grads with proven experience, initia-tive, ethics, integrity, multicultural awareness and motivation to make a difference gain an edge in the job market and admission to grad schools.

Residence Halls: NMU’S 10 residence halls are organized into living groups called “houses,” which include 40-45 students who actively shape their own living environments. Four students share a suite (two bedrooms and a bath-room) and all residence halls have great locations within five minutes of eating, learning and studying areas.

Extracurricular: There are about 300 clubs and organizations on cam-pus, including academic, service, social, professional, religious and special interest groups. We also have a full program of club and intramural athletics.

Intercollegiate Athletics: NMU is a member of the National Col-legiate Athletic Association (NCAA), the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (GLIAC) and the Central Collegiate Hockey Association (CCHA). Varsity teams for women include basketball, cross country, Nordic skiing, soccer, swimming and diving, track and field and volleyball. Varsity teams for men include basketball, football, golf, hockey and Nordic skiing. All sports are NCAA Division II, except men’s ice hockey, which is Division I.

Northern Michigan University made NCAA history when the Wildcats swept the top three places in both women’s cross country events at the 2007 NCAA Skiing Championship.

Marquette is 450 miles from the state’s largest and best-known city, Detroit, and

it’s truly worlds away. This vibrant but easy-going community

of 20,000 (which grows to nearly 30,000 with the return of NMU students each fall) is located on the shore of Lake Superior, sur-rounded by miles of recreational forestland in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula.

A winter paradise for skiers, snowmo-bilers and ice-fishers, the region receives an average of 170 inches of snow each year, with a record of 319 inches.

In the warmer months, residents enjoy pristine Lake Superior beaches, hundreds of miles of hiking and mountain biking trails, sailing, kayaking, scuba diving and fishing on the big lake or on numerous rivers and inland lakes.

Marquette is a Mecca for athletic events. The city and surrounding communities host the annual U.P. 200 dogsled race, a qualifier for the Alaska Iditarod, and the Noquemanon Cross-Country Ski Marathon. Both events at-tract top-notch competitors from around the world. The Superior Bike Fest, Ore-to-Shore Mountain Bike Epic race, Superior Shore Run,

Continental Cup Ski Jumping Tour-nament, occasional Olympic-qualifying competitions and weekly NMU Wildcat games also keep the local lifestyle active and involved.

Cultural, art, music and food festivals as well as numerous trade shows provide even more fun throughout the year.

Among the many accolades Marquette has received include:• All-America County• Most Livable City• 100 Best Communities for Young People• Michigan Cool City• 5 Best Places to Live and Ride (Bike

Magazine)• Top 10 Global Summer Vacation

Destinations (Sherman’s Travel) • 100 Best Art Towns• Top 7 Places to Build a Vacation Home

(Men’s Journal)• Top 10 New Courses: Greywalls (Golf

Digest)Beyond Marquette, the Upper Peninsula

has much to offer, too. Nestled between three Great Lakes (Superior, Michigan and Huron) the 384-mile long, 233 mile-wide U.P. has no shortage of splendor: from wildlife to waterfalls and lighthouses to lingering sunsets.

Its rich history of mining and forestry is still a visible and current economic force. Tourism, education and health-care are other major players in the region’s employment.

Some U.P. highlights include:• U.S. National Ski Hall of Fame (Ishpeming)• National park (Isle Royale), national

lakeshore (Pictured Rocks, Munising) and national historic park (Keweenaw)

• Longest running competitive ski jumping tournament and largest artificial ski jump-ing hill in the world (Pine Mountain Ski Jump, Iron Mountain)

• Longest suspension bridge in the western hemisphere (Mackinac Bridge, St. Ignace)

• The two longest river locks in the world (Soo Locks, Sault Ste. Marie)

• The only ski flying hill in the western hemisphere (Copper Peak, Ironwood)

Marquette and the Upper Peninsula

Olympic Education Center: NMU is designated as the only United States Olympic Education Center by the U.S. Olympic Committee. Olympic athletes in five sports train for elite international competitions while pursuing their edu-cations at NMU and Marquette Senior High School.

Athletic FacilitiesNorthern Michigan University boasts one of the finest collec-tions of athletic facilities in NCAA Division II, if not the country. A connected unit of three first-rate facilities - the Superior Dome, the Physical Education Instructional Facility (PEIF), and the Berry Events Center - are used by NMU for the majority of its athletic events.

Superior DomeThe Superior Dome has been home to the Wildcat football team since 1991 and is the finest football facility in the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference, if not all of NCAA Division II.

The Dome stands 14 stories high, and encompasses 5.1 acres under its roof. Constructed of 781 Douglas fir beams and 108.5 miles of fir decking, the Dome has a permanent seating capacity of 8,000, but the building can hold as many as 16,000 people. The facility features a diameter of 536 feet, and has the ability to withstand 60 pounds per square foot of snow and 80 mile per hour winds.

The Dome features a retractable artificial turf carpet, the largest of its kind in the world. When it is extended, the turf has the ability to accommodate football, soccer and field hockey. Underneath the carpet is a synthetic playing surface that fea-tures three basketball/volleyball courts, two tennis courts and a 200-meter track. The carpet is extended over a cushion of air and takes 30 minutes to retract powered by 12 computerized winches. Full setup of the turf is completed in approximately two hours. A new artificial turf carpet was installed in the sum-mer of 2009.

Berry Events CenterThe home of the NMU hockey and basketball teams, the Berry Events Center opened its doors in October 1999. The facility provides individual seating for approximately 3,800 fans, in addition to 16 luxury boxes, which includes a president’s suite. Along the perimeter of the arena are four large conces-sion areas, as well as standing room for approximately 400 fans.

When used for hockey, the Berry has an Olympic-size ice sheet measuring 200 feet by 100 feet. When rigged for basket-ball, the court sits on a protective flooring, which is placed over the ice, and seating for 500 fans is available courtside. Conver-sion from hockey to basketball can be completed in approxi-mately five hours.

The Berry also features locker rooms and support areas for the men’s and women’s basketball teams and the United States Olympic Education Center’s short track speedskating team along with four general-use locker rooms. In addition, skate rental and changing areas are located on the lower level of the complex.

The hockey area includes a weight room, athletic training room, meeting rooms, locker room and support area.

Also designed to host concerts and community events, the Berry Events Center is equipped with moveable theatrical rig-ging and lighting.

ski trails in nearby Ishpeming and the four 5K loops at Blueberry Ridge in Sands Township, a few miles south of Marquette.

GolfThe official Wildcat course is the Greywalls course at the Mar-quette Golf Club. GolfWeek named Greywalls the second-best course you can play in Michigan and upon its opening in 2005; it was included in the Top Ten Best New Course listings of all major golf publications. The Wildcats will also utilize the NMU Golf Course, which was formerly known as Chocolay Downs. Its ninth hole is among the world’s largest putting green, measur-ing 29,000 square feet. Total yardage of the course is over 6,800 yards with a par of 72. The course contains water hazards, rolling terrain and beautiful wooded areas.

Physical Education Instructional FacilityThe PEIF, as it is more commonly called, was opened in 1976 and houses the PEIF Pool, home of NMU swimming and div-ing team, and Vandament Arena, where the Wildcat volleyball team plays.

The PEIF pool features eight lanes and a diving tank with one- and three-meter springboards, as well as a 20-meter platform.

Vandament Arena, opened in 1995, is a 1,500-seat volleyball-only facility, one of the finest in Division II.

The facility houses an auxiliary gymnasium that the Wild-cat men’s and women’s basketball teams use for practice.

The PEIF also houses a two-level Recreation Center, which was opened in December 1999. It is complete with a climbing wall, weight room, cardiovascular area, two basket-ball courts, a tennis court, two lounge areas and a conference room. Also located in the PEIF are seven racquetball courts, a dance studio, athletic training facilities, locker rooms, class-rooms and staff offices.

Other FacilitiesSoccer fieldsFour fields are located behind the Superior Dome, along Lake Superior.

Two are home to the NMU women’s soccer team; the other two are practice fields for the NMU football team. They are equipped with bleachers and a scoreboard.

Cross county skiingNorthern’s men’s and women’s teams have two designated practice locations, with lighted trails: the Al Quaal 3K and 5K

Wildcats in the Weight RoomThe Wildcats have excellent weight and conditioning training areas in the Superior Dome, Berry Events Center and PEIF. Each has specific training times, but players also have individual access to conditioning areas.
