History of the KCAC

The Kansas Collegiate Athletic Conference, commonly called “The Kansas Conference,” is a prominent intercollegiate athletics conference comprised of ten outstanding independent or private institutions of higher education in the state.

The origins of the KCAC are traced to February 15, 1890, when the Kansas Intercollegiate Athletic Association became the result of the first successful attempt at organization among Kansas colleges, “to promote and regulate amateur intercollegiate athletics.” At that time the association or conference included not only private universities and colleges but also Kansas Agriculture College (now KSU), Kansas University, and Washburn University. Football seems to have been the major sponsored sport, and Baker University won the championship for the first three or four years.

In about 1902 this early association became allied with the Kansas College Athletic Conference, a group which was the first to adopt a definite set of rules and regulations. It also promoted an annual track and field meet which has contin-ued yearly since, except for World War years. Basketball has been sponsored since 1904. Football was revived in 1907. Tennis began as early as 1912. Golf was added in 1923. By this time the name of the conference had been altered to the Kansas Collegiate Athletic Conference; it had grown to 17 college members and two allied members: Baker, Betha-ny, Bethel, College of Emporia, Fairmount (now WSU), Friends, Kansas Wesleyan, KSTC of Emporia (now ESU), KSTC of Hays (now FHSU), KSTC of Pittsburg (now PSU), McPherson, Ottawa, St.Benedict’s (now Benedictine), St.Mary’s, Ster-ling (formerly Cooper), Southwestern, and Washburn, and with St.John’s and Kansas City University (Kansas) as allied members. Kansas University and Kansas Aggies had dropped out earlier to join other conferences. In 1923 the College of Emporia, KSTC of Emporia, KSTC of Hays, KSTC of Pittsburg, Wichita (formerly Fairmount), Southwestern, and Wash-burn withdrew to form the Central Conference.

The present legal entity comes from a reorganization of the conference when the predecessor Kansas Intercollegiate Athletic Conference formally disbanded on December 1, 1928, and a new conference was formed which again was called the Kansas College Athletic Conference. The members were Baker, Bethany, Kansas Wesleyan, McPherson, Ottawa, and St.Mary’s colleges. At that time sportswriters quickly gave the KCAC league a nickname: the “Little Six,” in contrast to the Big Six (which became Big Eight, now Big 12) which also was organized in 1928. St.Mary’s College was discontinued in 1931. The College of Emporia returned to the fold in 1933, and Bethel was readmitted in 1939. Friends, a former member of the KIAC, was admitted in 1953. Sterling and Southwestern were approved for member-ship in 1958. In 1968 Tabor College and St. Mary of the Plains College were admitted to make twelve members in the conference, and the conference was organized into Southern and Northern divisions until 1970 -- when Baker, College of Emporia, and Ottawa withdrew to join two separate Missouri-based conferences. In the mid-1970s the formal name was changed again to Kansas Collegiate Athletic Conference. In 1975 women’s intercollegiate athletics were incorpo-rated into programs of the KCAC. Ottawa was readmitted in 1981, bringing the conference membership to 10. In 1992 St.Mary of the Plains College in Dodge City left the conference and eventually closed. In 1999 Saint Mary College-Leav-enworth joined to return the KCAC membership to ten institutions.

The “Kansas Conference” (KCAC) continues to be an all-Kansas conference. The KCAC is an affiliated conference of the National Association of intercollegiate Athletics with headquarters in Kansas City, Missouri. Today the KCAC sponsors conference intercollegiate athletics in football, volleyball, men’s cross country, women’s cross country, men’s soccer, women’s soccer, men’s basketball, women’s basketball, men’s indoor track and field, women’s indoor track and field, men’s outdoor track and field, women’s outdoor track and field, baseball, softball, men’s golf, women’s tennis, and men’s tennis.

2010 Outlook

8

The Warriors look to come back strong in 2010 following a 2009 finish of 6-4, 5-3 in the Kansas Colle-giate Athletic Conference (KCAC). Sterling returns seven starters both on offense and on defense. The experience will help, as the Warriors face a tough stretch in late September and early October, facing the top three 2009 finishers in the KCAC in back to back weeks.

Offensively, the Warriors return senior running back Rashard Colquitt. Colquitt led the Warriors in rush-ing yards in 2009, averaging 83.5 yards per game. In 2010, Colquitt will have the opportunity to gain large chunks of yardage on the ground behind returning senior linemen Mike Danski, Tory King, and Chandler Keenan. Even with the return of senior Keoki Burbank, the quarterback position is an area of concern for Sterling. With Matt James coming to Sterling to play wide receiver from Golden West Col-lege, the Warriors are looking to improve on a passing offense that ranked last in the KCAC in 2009.

Last season, the Sterling offense became one dimensional, relying strictly on the run. In 2010, the War-riors are looking to add balance to their offensive attack. Eli Copeland and James Morley will compli-ment the incoming James at wide receiver.

“We must get better in our passing game to have a chance. Our ability to protect our skill level and talent at receiver, and our quarterback play must all improve,” said Sterling College head coach Andy Lambert.

On the defensive side of the ball, Sterling will have to adjust to the loss of linebackers Justin Hejney and Austin Kingsbury. However, the Warrior defense returns seven starters along with safeties Brock Frank and Tate Arnold from the #9 ranked scoring defense in the NAIA and the top ranked scoring defense in the KCAC. To help retool the defense, the Warriors have brought in defensive lineman Kyle Dillard from the College of the Redwoods. Dillard will help KCAC All-Conference Honorable Mention defensive line-man Mike Jones solidify the Sterling College defensive line.

“Our defense gave up the fewest points in the conference last season. We must replace a safety and get very good play from our outside linebackers early to be a great defense this year,” Lambert said.

The schedule is favorable for the Warriors this year with six home games and only four road games. Five of the six home games are also KCAC contests. Sterling kicks off the season at home on Septem-ber 11 in a KCAC match-up against Southwestern College.

2009 Recap

The Sterling College Warrior football program finished the 2009 season with a record of six wins and four losses while placing fourth in the Kansas Collegiate Athletic Conference (KCAC).

At home, the Warriors were able to protect the home field, winning three out of their four home games. The only home loss came against eventual KCAC Champion Ottawa University in a tightly contested game.

On the road, the Warriors were able to win three of the six games. Out of the three losses on the road, the closest game was a 21-0 loss to McPherson College.

Offensively, the Warriors struggled in 2009. The offense ranked in the bottom half of the KCAC, only scoring 20.3 points per game. The rushing game ranked second overall in the KCAC with 173.7 rush-ing yards per game, but passing offense ranked last in the KCAC with 118.9 passing yards per game. A poor passing game handcuffed Sterling College all year long, putting a lot of pressure on the Warrior defense to win games.

The Warrior defense stepped up to the challenge in 2009 by being the top defense in the KCAC. Sterling College only allowed 17.3 points per game during the 2009 season, making up for the dismal offensive performance.

Rashard Colquitt headlined the list of the Sterling College football players to receive All-KCAC Honors by being named to the All-KCAC First Team Offense as a running back. Members of the All-KCAC Second Team were Mike Danski as an offensive lineman and Austin Kingsbury as a linebacker. Warriors that received All-KCAC Honorable Mention were Ray Smith (offensive line), Drew Lott (defensive back), Justin Hejny (linebacker), Quinton Burgess (defensive line), and Mike Jones (defensive line).

Sterling’s offense was on fire, averaging 6.3 yards a play while the Warrior defense was able to hold Bethany to a measly 54 yards rushing on 35 attempts for an average of 1.5 yards per carry.

Sterling 0, Bethel 30November 14, 2009

North Newton, Kansas

The Warriors were disappointed in their final game of the 2009 season, traveling to North Newton to lose to Bethel College 0-30.

Bethel jumped on Sterling in the first quarter, scoring 14 points and then added another 13 points in the third quarter. A fourth quarter field goal, pushed the final score to 0-30. Sterling was unable to get anything going offensively while the defense was unable to keep the Threshers out of the endzone.

The running game that was the staple to the Sterling offense all season failed to show up against Bethel. Sterling was only able to gain one yard on the ground against a Bethel defense that confused the Warriors throughout the game.

Sterling Facilities

Smisor Stadium, the beneficiary of a 1.2 mil-lion dollar renovation in the summer of 2008 is the home of the Sterling College Warrior football program.

The renovation was made possible from a lead gift from a former football alum as well as the Sterling School district. With a seating capacity of 3,000, Smisor is a great setting for college football and a dominate landmark on the Sterling College campus. Smisor Stadium also houses the football conference room, football locker room and Coaching Offices.

The Smisor Stadium project also included a complete renovation of the press box, which more than doubled its size; there are four separate seating areas across the facility. There are two main press areas that are capable of comfort-able seating ten persons each, equipped with radio hookups and wireless internet. Adjacent to each main press box are coaching boxes. These boxes allow for the seating of six coaches comfortably. Each box is equipped with temperature regulation in addition to the stunning views of one of the fin-est natural turf fields in the state.

SMISOR STADIUM

With the renovation, the pitch is now a perfectly crowned natu-ral fescue/ bluegrass blend guaranteed to add to the aesthetics of the facility.

An underground sprinkler system was also recently installed.The irrigation project was made possible through lead gifts from Anna Smisor-Smith and the Sterling Rotary.

A new commercial turf mower was also purchased through fundraising efforts for the new grass and sprinklers allowing Mc-Cracken Field to be maintained at a professional quality.
