MEDIA GUIDELINESThe 2012 James Madison University football media guide is de-

signed to assist the media with its coverage of James Madison football. Additional information, statistics and photographs may be acquired by contacting John A. Martin in the James Madison Athletics Communications Office, MSC 0404, 380 University Boulevard, Harrisonburg, VA, 22801.

Press CredentialsRequests for working press space must be made in writing at least

one week before the date of the home contest to the James Madison Athletics Communications Office. The request should be made in writ-ing via e-mail by the sports director of the newspaper, magazine, radio or television outlet wishing to send reporter(s) and/or photographer(s) to the game. Confirmation of the request will be made by James Madison Athletics Communications personnel. Press credentials WILL NOT be issued to spouses, friends or children, in accordance with the working code of the College Sports Information Directors of America and the Football Writers Association of America. The press box is a working area and cheering will be grounds for removal.

PhotographersPhotographers are issued similar credentials to press box media,

though any media representatives working at field level must check in at the press box for an armband allowing access. Photographers are allowed to shoot from outside the 25-yard line on each side of the field and outside the dotted line surrounding the field. Due to HIPAA regulations, we ask all photographers, both television and print, not to photograph any injury evaluations done in the bench/sidelines area. Additionally, per the credential policy, there is no selling of game pho-tos taken by media members without the express written agreement from James Madison University.

ParkingMedia parking is located in the Champions Drive Parking Deck, Tunnel

Lot (C9 Lot) and Convocation D Lot near the Convocation Center with the ability to walk through Duke Dog Alley (the tunnel) to reach the sta-dium. Season media members will be issued season parking passes. Single-game parking passes should be requested with media passes and will need to be requested at least a week in advance to allow arrival prior to the game. If a single-game press pass is left at the Will Call window, parking arrangements are the responsibility of the media member. There is no “Will Call” list for parking for credentials request-ed less than a week in advance, as media parking is limited.

Entering Bridgeforth StadiumPress credentials can be picked up in the James Madison Athletics

Communications Office on or after Wednesday during the week of a home contest. If credentials are requested and approved, they will only be mailed if the request is granted at least two weeks prior to game. Any credentials not picked up will be left at the Will Call window at the south end of the stadium near Gate A.

Field AccessField access for media is limited at JMU. To access the field for work-

ing purposes, media representatives must check in at the press box to secure sideline passes and the appropriate armbands. The armbands must be worn on the left upper sleeve at all times to be on the side-lines as a working member of the media.

RadioJames Madison football can be heard live on the JMU/nTelos Sports

Network and on the Internet at www.JMUSports.com.

Visiting RadioVisiting radio stations have a separate booth on the top floor in

the press box at Bridgeforth Stadium. Visitors receive one reciprocal phone line for their game broadcasts. Should more lines be needed, please contact John Martin for arrangements.

Nicknames, TraditionsJMU’s athletic teams use the nickname “Dukes” in honor of Dr. Samuel P. Duke, univer-

sity president from 1919-1949. Men’s athletics began at JMU during Duke’s tenure (men first enrolled in the regular season in 1946 as day students.)

Women’s teams were known by several names until “Duchesses” became prevalent in the early 1940s. That name was dropped in 1982 when all of JMU’s teams became “Dukes.”

The school colors, purple and gold, were selected during JMU’s first session in 1909-10 from the colors used by the institution’s two literary societies, Lanier and Lee. The Lanier Society’s colors were violet and white and the Lee’s gray and gold. Violet soon was replaced by purple, which was easier to obtain for use for pennants and other decorations.

The school mascot, a bulldog with a purple and gold cape and a crown, was adopted in 1971. The bulldog is the traditional pet of royalty such as a duke.

“Duke Dog” entertains at JMU athletic contests and other university special events and also takes part in a variety of community activities and events.

JMU also has used several living bulldogs as univer-sity mascots.

Duke Dog won the “popular” vote during the 2004 Capital One Mascot of the Year competition, compiling an 11-0 record in head-to-head voting against other college mascots.

XX2012 OUTLOOKHeading into his 14th year as the head football coach at James Madison, Mickey

Matthews knows the landscape of the NCAA Football Championship Subdivision as well as anyone in the nation. Over his first 13 years, he is the winningest coach in program history and has taken JMU to six playoff appearances, including the 2004 National Championship and 2008 National Semifinals. Last year, the squad went 8-5, including advancing to the second round of the NCAA Championships, where it lost at eventual national champion North Dakota State. As the Dukes’ leader looks to the 2012 season, he also took the time to reflect on his thoughts from the 2011 campaign and what it meant for both their spring workouts and the outlook on this fall.

“We thought we had our quarterback position settled last year heading into the season and coming out of the win at William & Mary with the second of two great fourth-quarter road rallies against nationally-ranked opponents (also Liberty), we were the playing very well,” Matthews said. “Then we were thrown for a loop with the suspension of Thorpe and we just didn’t play well in those next five games, dropping three of the five. Then we played really well in November to finish 7-4 and, at the time, we were happy to get into the postseason. If that didn’t happen, I am not sure it is out of the realm to say we should have won four out of the five and been 9-2 with a bye. Who knows? We might have played North Dakota State in Harrisonburg and maybe stayed home through the national semifinals.

“So I thought when we went into our spring training that we had a very veteran team with a lot of returning players that have seen extensive action over the last two years,” the head coach continued. “I thought the two positions I was most concerned about in the spring were the cornerbacks and the strong safety slots. The two Maryland transfers (Titus Till and Jeremiah Wilson) helped us in both those areas. It was a very positive spring because of the veterans, and because of that, we did not tackle to the ground a lot. We did not have to prepare to play a team like North Carolina in the first game, so it changed our philosophy for both the spring and upcoming fall workouts. We feel like we have two games to get our football team set early in the year.”

Another key piece of the puzzle for the program is Bridgeforth Stadium, the newly renovated home for JMU. Following the 2009 season, construction began on the facility to expand it to almost 25,000 seats and add suites, a club level and a state-of-the-art press box. However, that also meant that the team didn’t have a turf field to practice on for the Spring of 2010 and 2011, making it a challenge to get all the workouts in. This year with construction completed prior to last season, the Dukes were able to practice in the home stadium and have the flexibility with changes in weather to make adjustments, something that Matthews emphasized as a positive for the upcoming season.

“You can’t underestimate the impact the construction at Bridgeforth Stadium had on our preparation for last season as it was an unstable situation,” Matthews said. “We didn’t have a spring game for two years, and the weather had been so bad on the grass fields for the last two years, forcing us to travel all over the region to hold some of our practices and scrimmages. So that didn’t help our workouts at all. The fact that we could practice in the stadium this year was really a positive as it gave us stability and flexibility to our spring training.”

Matthews also sees the stability of the program over the years paying dividends this season and in the future. With a good mix of sophomores, juniors and seniors along with a strong pair of redshirt-freshmen and freshmen classes about to experience their first year of play, he feels like the Dukes are primed for a run at the Colonial Athletic Association championship as well as a run in the playoffs.

“We have a lot of returning players and we feel good about it,” Matthews stated. “Our balance among the classes is very good so we are where we want to be as a program, both now and in the future. We are as experi-enced this year as we have been, with a lot of players who have played a lot of football. If we can answer a couple of question marks entering the fall, we could be a very, very good team this year.”

With that in mind, let’s take a look at the 2012 Dukes, position-by-position.

QUARTERBACKSJMU returns redshirt-senior Justin

Thorpe as the starting quarterback from last season. A proven threat on his feet, Thorpe has worked hard this spring to continue to improve his throwing of the football. But he has proven he can lead the team, as he has posted an 11-5 record as a starter

at JMU, including winning 10 of his last 11 starts against FCS foes. However, he has not played a complete season since 2009 due to various issues, something Matthews is hoping to have this year.

“Justin is a key to our offense, as we saw last year in the games he played,” Matthews said. “He was able to have an excellent spring of healthy workouts, really throwing the ball more than run-ning. That was key to his growth as he had not played a complete season the last two years. He has risen to the challenge and played well in critical situations, includ-ing the fourth quarters in wins at Liberty, William & Mary and Eastern Kentucky. If he can have a healthy, uninterrupted season, we could have a great year and he could be a strong candidate for national honors.”

As for the backup position, there is some unknown there, as JMU will enter the fall without a second quarterback who has ever played a down of collegiate football. Transfer Lafonte Thourogood is the most experienced, having spent last season practicing as a true freshman at Vanderbilt. However, true freshmen Michael Birdsong, Ian Fisher and Taylor Reynolds will get plenty of looks in the fall.

“We are going to give Lafonte the first shot at being the backup in camp this August, as he does have a year of collegiate experience,” Matthews continued. “We are going to work in the three freshmen and see how they do as you don’t know who will pick it up the quickest. But we travel with three quarterbacks, so we need to make some decisions during camp as we would not be opposed to playing a true freshman.”

OFFENSIVE LINEAny coach will tell you that the game is often won and lost in the trenches and

JMU’s offensive line will again make its impact. The Dukes return three starters from last year’s line along with one from the 2010 season, giving the squad experience. The group worked together extensively in the spring drills, developing cohesion, as it will be anchored by The Sports Network First Team Preseason All-American guard Earl Watford.

“Earl has developed into a great offensive lineman,” Matthews stated. “I believe he has a chance to be drafted and even possibly be the highest-ever draft pick from JMU if he continues to grow and perform at a high level. He is a key to our success and will get many looks over the course of this season.”

Other returning starters to the line are redshirt-juniors Josh Wells and Scott Jones and redshirt-sophomore A.J. Scott. Wells and Scott both were tackles for the squad last year, while Jones was a starter at guard in 2010 before a spring injury sidelined him for most of the 2011 season. Matthews knows that this trio could be big for Madison, especially if they can continue to develop and stay healthy.

“When we lost Josh last year in mid-season to an injury, it really affected our offensive performance,” Matthews said. “He came back and had a great spring and is developing very well at offensive tackle. He knows the game well, having been a high school quarterback.

“Scott Jones is back healthy and we expect him to be the starter at the other guard opposite Earl,” Matthews continued. “Losing him late in Spring 2011 to the knee injury was hard as we had to adjust in the fall, but he has recovered well and we anticipate he will be even better than he was as a freshman. A.J. is still a ques-tion mark for us with his injury last year and we will have to see where he is when the fall rolls around. Another pair who developed quite a bit in the spring were Austin Lane and Wray Fucci. We have high hopes for both of them this fall.”

The biggest loss on the offensive line was All-CAA center Roane Babington, who had been a three-year starter on the line, including the last two at center. Redshirt-sophomore Matt Williams got experience on the line last year, but not at center. Redshirt-freshman Andrew Baumgardner got a year of practice under his belt, so it is expected that the two of them will compete for the starting nod during the fall drills.

“Our biggest question mark on the line is the center, as the position is a battle between Matt Williams and Andrew Baumgardner,” Matthews said. “It is hard to replace a two-year starter at the position like Roane Babington was for us, but these two went at it in the spring to try and earn the job. They are both competing for the

2012 OUTLOOKjob in the fall, and I feel quite certain both of them will play this fall as we look for one of them to take a leadership role on the line.”

TIGHT ENDSRedshirt-senior Brian Barlow is returning as the starter at tight end for the Dukes, having started

his last 21 games played. Last season, the Second Team All-CAA selection had career bests of 33 catches and 316 receiving yards and one touchdown. A sizeable target at 6-3 and 260 pounds, Matthews expects him to be an even bigger part of the offense in 2012.

“Brian is just a complete tight end and a pro prospect at H-back/fullback because of his size and ability, both blocking and catching the ball,” Matthews stated. “He is an excellent blocker and can catch the ball in a crowd and is just an all-around good player. He caught 33 balls last year, and I believe he will have even more receptions this year. He is just a very fine football player and will be looked at by many pro squads this year.”

Redshirt-sophomore Zack Ozycz and redshirt-freshmen Dominick Richards and Derek Hart are expected to compete for playing time this fall, as well as contribute on special teams.

WIDE RECEIVERSMuch of the spring workouts on the offensive side of the football worked on balancing out the

passing game with the running game for JMU. Thorpe has an experienced corps of wide receivers to throw to, as five of the top six receivers return from last year and another returns after being out the 2011 season with an injury. Overall, Matthews felt like the group grew significantly during the 2011 season and 2012 spring drills and could be a difference maker this season.

“The best wide receiver we had in the spring was Daniel Brown,” Matthews said. “He really matured and looked more confident in everything he was doing. De’Andre Smith really improved during the season last year as a true freshman and we believe he will continue that this year.

“Renard Robinson again showed to be one of our top receivers during the spring drills,” Matthews continued. “Quintin Hunter will return to the lineup after an injury last year kept him out through the season, but he returned to quality form during spring drills. Andre Coble also had a very good spring during his workouts at wide receiver and believe he will contribute during the fall. Arlandis Harvey also had a good spring and will again be in the mix for playing time. Ryan Dixon and Marquis Woodyard will also be battling for playing time during the season, so I feel like we have some quality depth and a variety of styles of receivers as targets for our quarterbacks this year.”

RUNNING BACKSMadison has always prided itself on the ability to gain yards on the ground, and this year should

be no different. The squad returns its top three running backs in redshirt-juniors Dae’Quan Scott and Jordan Anderson and redshirt-sophomore Jauan Latney. The trio combined for almost almost 2,400 yards and 22 touchdowns on the ground, led by Scott’s 1,304 yards and 12 scores despite playing a majority of the season with a shoulder injury. All three are healthy heading into the fall, giving Matthews depth and options in carrying the ball, depending on the situation and who is most effective and consistent.

“There is no question that our top three running backs heading into the year are Dae’Quan Scott, Jordan Anderson and Jauan Latney,” Matthews said. “Dae’Quan showed what he can do last year, even with the injury, but he missed parts of spring training due to his off-season shoulder surgery. Jordan also played well and has been working this summer on getting his academics (pre-med) ready for the fall so that he wouldn’t have class conflicts with practice like he did last year. Jauan is a big strong guy and it is crazy to struggle to get someone like that on the field, but we did last year with these other two performing well. Every time he has played, he has done very well. So we definitely have some competition and options at running back this year.”

DEFENSIVE LINEThe defensive line returns experience and

depth this year, with six in the preseason top eight of the depth chart with at least a season of collegiate game action.

On the ends, Madison has five players with significant playing time, led by senior Aaron Harper and redshirt-junior Tyler Snow. Snow was second among defensive linemen with 46 tackles last year. They are joined by redshirt-sophomore Brandon Lee and sophomore Sage Harold, who both played a majority of games last year. This group, along with senior Adrian Cavanaugh, has players that can rotate in and out and contribute to the defense.

“Tyler Snow is the best defensive lineman we have entering the fall, having grown both physically and in his play,” Matthews said. “With his increase in size, we may look to move him inside during the year, depending on how things go.

“Aaron Harper is another returning starter

XX2012 OUTLOOKat defensive end and is very solid on the outside, do-ing everything right as a good football player does,” Matthews continued. “The two young defensive ends, Sage Harold and Brandon Lee, both have tremendous potential and improved over the spring drills. We also need Adrian Cavanaugh and Christian Norton to step up and contribute at defensive end to give us the depth we want throughout the year.”

At tackle, the Dukes will look to redshirt-juniors Sean O’Neill and Jordan Stanton to anchor the outside of the line. Stanton was fourth among defen-sive linemen with 29 tackles, while O’Neill suffered a season-ending injury in the home opener but has returned to his previous form. Several others will look to work into the mix, as Matthews would like to find a good rotation to keep them fresh and effective throughout the game.

“We lost Sean O’Neill in the second game to an ACL injury and that really hurt us, but he has worked hard to get back into playing condition and could be a major factor in the fall,” Matthews said. “Jordan Stanton can be as good as he wants to be at 6-6, 280 pounds and running in the 4.6 on the 40-yard dash. He is a great prospect and could be a force on the

line this fall. Alex Mosley really grew as a true freshman on the scout team, earning the team’s Defensive Scout Player of the Year award, and he continued that development in the spring. He will be in the mix for action from the start, as will Bingham Togia. Isaiah Hamlette is a transfer from Virginia Tech and we are interested to see how he could fit on the line.”

LINEBACKERSThe linebacking corps is anchored by redshirt-junior and two-year starter Stephon

Robertson. A Third Team Preseason All-American by The Sports Network, Robertson led the Dukes in tackles last year with 113 and earned First Team All-CAA honors. This year, he is expected to continue making an impact for JMU and on opponents in every game.

“Stephon is going to be a four-year starter by the time he finishes and just makes a lot of plays for us,” Matthews said. “He doesn’t have the best numbers in terms of tackles because, with the quality players surrounding him, we don’t ask him to make every play and tackle like some other teams ask of their linebackers. He is the premier linebacker in the nation, in my opinion, because of the things he does game in and game out.”

Chase Williams is slated to start at the other linebacker position following the graduation of four-year starter Pat Williams. Williams will battle with redshirt-senior Jamie Veney and redshirt-freshman Kevin Byrne for the weakside slot, while redshirt-senior Chad Byers and redshirt-freshman Ascene Jacques will be behind Robertson.

“Chase played well this spring and we will see how he does, as we have been waiting to see how he comes on this year. We are anxious to get Jamie back in the mix this year, as he has been injured for most of the last two seasons. He is healthy now, going into his senior year, and has a lot of potential that we hope to see come out this year.

“Ascene played better each day as the spring drills went on,” Matthews continued. “He could be a great linebacker for us over the years if he continues to progress like he did in the spring. Kevin will also be in the mix for playing time after a solid off season, while Chad has also been a solid contributor both as a linebacker and special teams player and we look forward to that continuing in his senior year. It wouldn’t surprise me, though, if one of our true freshmen works their way into the mix during the fall workouts heading into the season.”

SAFETIESJMU returns two starters among the safeties

as senior Jakarie Jackson is back at weak safety and redshirt-sophomore Dean Marlowe will once again be the free safety. The pair made impact plays as Jackson was fifth on the team with 49 tackles, while Marlowe led the squad and tied for sixth in the CAA with four in-terceptions. The duo will again be the anchors in the deep part of the secondary for Madison.

“Our returning safeties are definitely among the top in the conference if not the nation, as Jakarie is in his fourth year as a starter and Dean started as a redshirt freshman and was All-CAA,” Matthews said. “Jakarie hasn’t gotten the recognition I think he deserves, as I think he is underrated for what he does for our defense. He has battled through some injuries from time-to-time, which has limited some of his productivity. However when we grade the tapes on Sunday, he always is one of our

“Dean has all the characteristics of a NFL safety at 6-2 and 190 pounds while running in the high 4.4’s with a great change of direction and athleticism,” Matthews commented. “We thought all he needed was experience and the last four or five games last year, he was the best safety in the league in our opinion. He is a physical player and just had not played a lot of safety, having been a high school quarterback. We feel he has all the ingredients to be a major impact player if he can just play and stay healthy.”

The strong safety/linebacker hybrid position will need to be filled after the graduation of four-year starter Vidal Nelson. Maryland transfer Titus Till earned the slot in spring workouts, showing why he played in 11 games and tied for sixth for the Terrapins with 47 tackles on the year as a redshirt fresh-

man. Redshirt-senior Isaiah Wright pushed Till in the spring and will compete for the starting nod in the fall.

“Titus Till really impressed the staff in the spring workouts and especially the scrimmages at the strong safety slot, as we believe he will be a great addition to this defense,” Matthews said. “He came in and won the strong safety job in the first several practices, as he showed he could play both in the box as well as a quality blitzer and man-to-man pass defender. But he will be challenged by Isaiah Wright, as he continued to grow in the spring.”

Redshirt-junior Daniel Allen shifted to safety in the spring drills and grew each practice and could be in the mix for playing time, as will redshirt-junior Peter Rose, redshirt-sophomore Eric Magruder and redshirt-freshman Sean Walker.

CORNERBACKSThe cornerback slots will have one new face following the graduation of Taveion

Cuffee and Mike Allen, but senior Leavander Jones will be back. However, Jones wasn’t able to be a part of the spring drills, so he is a question mark. In light of those, the position was enhanced with the shift of redshirt-junior Ryan Smith from safety and addition of redshirt-sophomore Jeremiah Wilson, the second transfer from Maryland. Those three will be in the mix for the two starting jobs, along with redshirt-sophomore Corey Davis and redshirt-junior Ron Gordon, who moved over from the offensive side of the ball.

“We moved Ryan to cornerback from safety during the spring and were very happy with his performance at the position in the spring,” Matthews said. “He really improved his speed and continues to develop as a football player.”

“Leavander was injured and didn’t get to participate in spring training, so we will have to see how he comes back this fall,” Matthews continued. “Jeremiah came in as the other transfer from Maryland, where he had played more running back than cornerback. However, he adapted to the transition and got better throughout the spring, so we are looking forward to his play in the fall. For being smaller than your average cornerback, Corey Davis is very physical at the position and is developing into a very good defender.”

SPECIAL TEAMSSpecial teams can make a difference in every game as history has proven, and

last year was a great example of that for JMU. The Dukes had a pair of game-win-ning field goals on the last play of the game, while Madison ranked third in punting average and field-goal percentage.

“Our kicking game is solid,” Matthews said. “Any time a team has a very experi-enced group in special teams, it can make a difference in every ball game.”

Redshirt-senior David Skahn is back for his third year as the Dukes’ punter. Last year, he earned Second Team All-CAA honors for his efforts, as he averaged just over 40 yards a punt with just under 20 percent of the punts returned and almost 30 percent ending inside the 20. Despite that quality season, Matthews sees even greater things on the horizon this year.

“David really settled in after the first three games of the year and was one of the top punters in the conference, as shown by his Second Team All-CAA pick,” Matthews said. “He does a great job getting distance on his kicks while giving our coverage team time to get there and eliminate returns. He has really grown in his time here, as he was so raw when he came in here as a freshman because he had

not played in high school. Now he is one of the top punters in the nation, and if he has another season like that, he will get some pro interest.”

Cameron Starke returns as the kicker for JMU and was among the best in the conference as a redshirt sophomore. Starke tied a school record with 15 field goals on the year, including the dramatic winners at Liberty and Eastern Kentucky. His consistency was even more impressive, as he had a streak of nine straight made at one point in the year, an attribute that Matthews looks forward to again this year.

“Cameron hit two game-winning field goals in the final play of each game, includ-ing the gutsiest kick I have ever seen in my career in the game winner into the strong wind at Eastern Kentucky,” Matthews said. “What was amazing were the ones he missed after the opening game were very difficult kicks, but his consistency is something we came to count on and look forward to having again this year.”

Redshirt-senior Chris Beaver is back for his third year as the snapper on both field goals and punts. He has been very consistent for Madison and is known for his arm strength, as he was a baseball standout in high school as a pitcher.

“Chris is a pro prospect, as he has strong arms, having been a pitcher here at JMU as a freshman,” Matthews said. He is very strong on his snaps. He also is solid on his blocking and kick coverage, which has given us stability in the kicking game.”

Dae’Quan Scott is expected to be back fielding punts again after successful recovery from his injury. A Preseason Third-Team All-American as an all-purpose player, he has showed the ability to break the big one in the running game, which makes him a player opponents have to keep close tabs on in the kicking game.

“Dae’Quan is also a great all-purpose player, as he is dangerous every time he goes back to field a punt,” Matthews said. “The league and many in the nation know he is a threat every time he touches it and we want to make sure he gets more of those opportunities this year since he will be healthy to start the season.”

SCHEDULEMadison will play six games at home during the 2012 regular season, including

opening the non-conference slate with a pair of home games against Saint Francis (Sept. 1) and Alcorn State (Sept. 8). The Dukes will then head to the nation’s capital to play their final non-conference tilt on Sept. 15 against Big 12-newcomer West Virginia at FedEx Field, home of the NFL’s Washington Redskins.

“Our schedule is much better than it was last year,” Matthews said. “We had North Carolina as well as two nationally-ranked teams on the road (Liberty and William & Mary) to start last year, so I was more than a little concerned about our schedule. This year’s schedule is more balanced than it was last year, so we are going to hopefully have a chance to get many youngsters playing time in those first couple of games before we head into CAA play.”

JMU will open the conference sched-ule on the road at Rhode Island on Sept. 22 and then have an open date before playing the last seven weekends in CAA action, including the finale against Old Dominion at Bridgeforth Stadium on Nov. 17. Again, the CAA is recognized as the top conference in FCS football heading into the season, including by The Sports Network. Last year at one time, the league had nine of its 11 teams rankied in the top 25 nationally and eventu-ally put five teams into the postseason, the fifth straight year the CAA has had at least four in the playoffs. This year, it is again anticipated to be a highly-competitive league from top to bottom, something Matthews has gotten used to during his tenure.

“In conference action, we have a good schedule, though I am still surprised we aren’t playing Delaware,” Matthews said. “It always balances out with William & Mary and Richmond with one at home and one on the road, so that is normal. (Defending CAA champion) Towson comes back on the schedule after not playing them last year, and we don’t know much about them since their personnel has changed so much. We also wrap up the two-game series with Old Dominion at our place, so we are anxious to get them here for that nationally-televised game.

“The hardest part is going on the road to the north three times, playing at Rhode Island, Villanova and Maine,” Matthews concluded. “They are places we have not traditionally played very well, so they are all going to be tough. The two years we have gone to the final four of the playoffs (2004 and 2008) and played at Maine, the game was decided on the final play of the contest. So we know it is going to be a battle as usual in the CAA this year.”

XXCOACH MATTHEWSMickey MatthewsHead Football CoachJames Madison University (1999-2011)

Born: Nov. 8, 1953Year at JMU: 14thCareer Year: 14thGraduate of: West Texas State 1976Hometown: Andrews, TexasJMU, Career Record: 96-61 (.611)

During his 13 seasons, Mickey Matthews has firmly established James Madison University football among the nation’s leading Football Championship Subdivision programs. While becoming the winningest coach in JMU football history, he has led the Dukes to an NCAA championship (2004) and to five other playoff appearances (1999, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2011).

Matthews has an 96-61 (.611) JMU record and during the 2008 season surpassed Challace McMillin’s (1972-84) program record for wins. McMillin, JMU’s first football coach, had a 67-56-1 mark. Matthews’ teams are 69-30 during the last eight years and have won the program’s national title and received five post-season bids during that time. JMU tied for the 2004 Atlantic 10 championship and won the 2008 Colonial Athletic Association title with an 8-0 record. The Dukes are 45-19 in league play during the last eight seasons.

Matthews three times has been National Coach of the Year (1999 Eddie Robinson Award by The Sports Network; American Football Coaches’ 2004 award; 2008 Robinson Award and an award by Liberty Mutual) and was Atlantic 10 Coach of the Year in 1999 and CAA Coach of the Year in 2008.

JMU in 2004 was 13-2 and the first team to reach the Division I-AA title game with three road wins. JMU won at Lehigh (14-13), Furman (14-13) and William & Mary (48-34) and beat Montana (31-21) for the national crown. The 13 wins set a team season record.

JMU’s 2004 losses were to nationally-ranked Division I-A West Virginia and to a William & Mary team it later beat during the playoffs. The Dukes beat four nationally ranked teams dur-ing the regular season.

JMU reached the 2006 playoffs while going 9-3 and 2007 post-season play while going 8-4.

The Dukes in 2008 lost their opener at Football Bowl Subdivision Duke but went on to a 10-1 regular-season record and the top seeding in the NCAA playoffs. JMU tied its team record with 12 straight wins, set a team mark for regular-season wins, and was the nation’s top-ranked team from late September through the end of the regular season. The Dukes played three playoff games at home and reached the national semifinals.

Matthews led JMU to a share of the Atlantic 10 title and to the league’s automatic playoff bid in 1999 during his first year as a head coach. The Dukes were 8-3 during the regular season after being 3-8 the previous year.

In 2004 he was Virginia Coach of the Year by the state’s sports information di-rectors and the Norfolk and Portsmouth sports clubs, Division I-AA Coach of the Year by the All-America Football Foundation, and recipient of the Amarillo (Texas) Chamber of

Commerce’s Achievement Award. In 2006, he was the Richmond Touchdown Club’s Virginia Coach of the Year. Last year, Matthews was inducted into the West Texas State Athletic Hall of Fame.

* * * * *

Matthews’ JMU players have received eight league player of the year awards. Curtis Keaton was league Offensive Player of the Year and Chris Morant Defender of the Year in 1999; Derrick Lloyd was co-Defender of the Year and received the Buck Buchanan Award as National Defender of the Year in 2001; Tony LeZotte was

league Defender of the Year in 2005 and 2007; Akeem Jordan was league Defender of the Year and National Defender of the Year by College Sporting News in 2006; Rodney Landers was league Offensive Player of the Year and Scotty McGee league Specialist of the Year in 2008; and Arthur Moats was league Defender of the Year and received the Buck Buchanan Award as national Defender of the Year in 2009. Jordan was second in the Buchanan Award voting in 2006 and Landers was second in the voting for the Walter Payton Award in 2008.

Matthews was introduced as JMU’s fifth head coach March 22, 1999, succeeding Alex Wood, who left to become quarterbacks’ coach with the NFL’s Minnesota Vikings.

Matthews in 1999 took his JMU job a week before spring practice was to begin, inheriting a team that had won but five of its previous 18 games and was picked to finish next to last in the Atlantic 10. The Dukes lost at Division I-A national runner-up Virginia Tech but then won seven straight games, finished the regular season 8-3 overall and 7-1 in the Atlantic 10 and reached post-season play for the first time in four years.

The Dukes were named to 12 spots on the league’s three all-star teams, and Keaton and Morant receiving Player of the Year honors was the first time in the league since 1980 that teammates won the awards. Never before

COACH MATTHEWShad the same program gotten both player awards and the coaching honor.

* * * * *

Matthews’ 2000 team was nation-ally ranked for most of the year before finishing 6-5 and had nine players receive all-league honors. His 2001 team, with only 11 seniors and 54 freshmen and redshirt freshmen, was 2-9 with seven games decided by seven or fewer points.

JMU in 2002 was 5-7 and won

two of its final three games with a squad that included only six seniors and five juniors. The Dukes won two overtime games, and six of their other contests were decided by seven or fewer points. JMU had eight All-Atlantic 10 honorees. JMU in 2003 was 6-6 with a team that had but four seniors.

His 2004 team won seven games by 10 or fewer points and two others that were scoreless into the second half. The balanced and deep JMU squad had only three first-team all-league honorees, including first-team All-Americans in offensive guard Matt Magerko and LeZotte, but had seven members named to the second and third all-league units.

JMU’s 7-4 team in 2005 had a first-team All-American in LeZotte, and in 2006 Jordan was runner-up for the Buchanan Award. The 2006 Dukes had seven first-team all-league picks, and JMU was first nationally in kickoff return average (27.1 yards), second in sacks (4.0 per game), and fourth in rushing defense (84.8 yards per game) and passing efficiency (162.5).

The 2007 Dukes were 8-4 after falling 28-27 to eventual champion Appalachian State in the first round of NCAA play. LeZotte received his second league Defender of the Year award and All-America hon-ors for the fourth time, and JMU was the national leader in fewest quarterback sacks allowed (0.5 per game).

JMU during the 2009 season won its final four games – all against league opponents – to finish 6-5. The 2009 Dukes won at Delaware for the first time since 1994 and at Massachusetts for the first time since 1987 during their season-closing four-game winning streak.

Matthews coached the linebackers and defensive backs at Georgia (1996-98), which won two bowl games during his tenure. He also coached Champ Bailey, the nation’s top defender and Washington’s first-round choice in the 1999 NFL draft.

Georgia was 5-6 in 1996, 10-2 in 1997 and 9-3 in 1998. The Bulldogs completed 1998 having won 20 of 25 games, including a Peach Bowl win over Virginia (35-33) and an Outback Bowl win over Wisconsin (33-6). With a supposedly rebuilding team in 1998, Georgia won four SEC road games and was second in the league and 16th nationally in scoring defense (17.2 points per game).

At Marshall from 1990-95, Matthews was part of a program that won the Division I-AA title in 1992, was runner-up in 1991, 1993 and 1995, and was a 1994 semifinalist. The Herd led the nation in scoring defense in 1993 and was seventh nationally in 1990 and 1995.

Marshall won 64 games during Matthews’ six years (58 the last five seasons) and won 11 or more games and made the playoffs from 1991-95. The Herd was 45-4 at home and 15-4 in post-season play. Marshall led the Southern Conference in total defense four times (1990, 93-95), scoring defense three times (1990, 93-94), passing defense twice (1990, 94) and rushing defense twice (1992, 95).

COACH MATTHEWS Q&AJMU’s Program After His First 13 Seasons

We’ve had a great run with the success that we’ve had on the field and the consistent quality program that we’ve be able to develop, and credit has to be given in many areas. We’ve gotten tremendous support from our university and athletics adminis-trations; our support staffs give us outstanding assistance; and the JMU Nation -- our students, alumni and other fans -- have great enthusiasm for our program and interest in what we’re doing.

We’ve been able to take advantage of the tremendous poten-tial that always has existed in the JMU football program. We have a nationally recognized academic institution with a beauti-ful campus and dedicated people. Combining those ingredients with a hard-working coaching staff and talented student-ath-letes hopefully can allow us to continue to build on the success that we’ve enjoyed.

Our recruiting continues to improve. We feel that if we can get a recruit to visit on game day and see the atmosphere that we have surrounding our games and our facilities, we have a great chance of signing him.

His Philosophy For A Successful ProgramOur first focus is to graduate every player. They’re here to go

to school. A lot of coaches give lip service to that, but our play-ers will find out in a hurry how serious I am about us going to school; I want every youngster to graduate.

Secondly, I want to make sure everyone has a good time, re-ally work at it. I’m easy to get along with, and our staff is that way. I want to make sure they have a good time because I tell all the players this will be the best time of their lives, being a college football player and attending JMU.

The third thing is that while we’re graduating everybody and everybody is having a good time, we’ll try to win football games. Believe me, winning is important; that’s why they have the scoreboard. Winning has to be something you think about every day. Winning has to be something you don’t talk about, you have to train yourself to do it. And our youngsters will do it, believe me.

His StaffIt’s a fact on the FCS

level that if you win, you’re going to have turnover on your staff. We’ve been fortunate here that we’ve kept much of our staff to-gether for several years. I like our staff. It’s a close-knit group that

works well together. We have the best group of recruiters that we’ve had, and they continue to do a solid job.

Our two coordinators are very solid, are excellent leaders, are intelligent and good organizers, and make excellent game deci-

sions. I really like the leadership Jeff Durden (offensive coor-dinator) provides, and Kyle Gillenwater (defensive coordinator) has been here since my hiring and will do an excellent job in his new role. Our coaches have great rapport with our players, and I think that shows on Saturdays in how we play.

We’ve had a lot of stability. You’re going to have movement on a staff; you can’t hide good coaches. It’s a huge compliment that so many people have inquired about our assistants.

Chris Malone took over as our offensive line coach after split-ting the responsibilities the year before, and we didn’t lose a thing there. We lost Joe Danna (secondary coach in 2007) but brought in Mark Hendricks. They’re very similar, and our coaches had worked with Mark in camps. We thought we knew what we were getting. He’s fit in well and we’re excited to have him.

Tony LeZotte has been another excellent addition to our staff, as his experience as a player here at JMU is well documented so he understands how we do things. He’s a highly qualified young coach who relates to our players and who will recruit well.

JMU’s Athletic Performance CenterNot only is the Plecker Athletic Performance Center the top

FCS facility in the nation, it’s a top-40 end zone facility. The fact that we can combine our locker room, our strength and condi-tioning area, our academic support areas, our sports medicine area, and our office areas under one roof allows us to accom-plish so much more than what we were able to do in the past. More than anything else, the completion of the facility dem-onstrates the university’s commitment to having a first-class football program. It speaks volumes to the players we would like to recruit to our program and to the outside world. We’ve always had a beautiful campus to recruit to; putting the facility on top of that is extremely advantageous for our recruitment of student-athletes.

JMU’s Stadium ExpansionWe have an excellent playing facility in the renovated

Bridgeforth Stadium/Zane Showker Field. We’ve gotten out-standing support during recent seasons, and moving to nearly 25,000 seats allows our program to continue to develop and for more of our fans to enjoy everything that’s included in JMU football. Not only is there be increased seating, but everything included in the expansion should make for a more enjoyable experience for everyone involved with JMU football.

His Offensive PhilosophyWe strive to be balanced because offensive football always

has been about taking advantage of your available personnel. We want to be known as a multiple offensive football team that presents preparation problems to our opponents. We have a wide-open philosophy that our fans enjoy, but we don’t sacrifice solid, offensive football principles.

His Defensive PhilosophyOur base defense is an eight-man front, and we want to be

extremely multiple. We want to blitz and use an attacking front. In pass coverage we play as much man-to-man as our talent al-lows. We place a premium on speed as opposed to size.

His Recruiting PhilosophyWe concentrate our recruiting in Virginia, the Washington,

D.C., and Baltimore areas, and Eastern Pennsylvania. We hope to attract top student-athletes who are quality football players

COACH MATTHEWS Q&Aand who can contribute to JMU’s strong academic environment.

We continue to recruit very well in Virginia, and that’s because of the makeup of our staff. I’ve recruited in Virginia for more than 15 years, and (assistant) Kyle Gillenwater is a Virginia na-tive with a lot of contacts. We have a Virginia presence on our staff, and that really helps. Nine years ago, we also added Jeff Durden, who had previous coaching experience in the state. Assistants Ulrick Edmonds, Clayton Matthews and Tony LeZotte played for us and have backgrounds in the state, and Chris Malone and Latrell Scott have state ties after playing at Virginia Tech and Hampton, respectively, and coaching in the state be-fore coming to JMU.

CAAThe Colonial Athletic Association is the toughest FCS league

in the country; no other conference has the quality of teams that we have from top to bottom. The 2004 season is a good example; we won the national champion-ship, and four teams from our league made the playoffs and won games. Before the 2004 season, the coaches picked Villanova at the top of the league; Northeastern was listed by publications as one of the better teams in the country; and Maine went to Mississippi State and won. All three were excellent teams and because of one bad break or another didn’t make the playoffs. I think that speaks volumes for the strength and balance in our league.

During the last three seasons the confer-ence sent a record five teams to the play-offs, and every year we have multiple teams deserving of postseason bids. It is, without a doubt, the premier FCS conference in the country right now and it is a challenge week in and week out to get wins.

JMU’s RecruitingWe’re very happy with the quality of play-

ers we continue to attract, and the reason that we continue to be successful is that we have the best group of recruiters that we’ve ever had. We have an enthusiastic and hard-working group of recruiters. Tony LeZotte has been a huge addition to our staff; he’s a young and energetic coach who is going to fit right in.

Our incoming group of recruits will be our sixth since the com-pletion of the Plecker Performance Center, and we’ve been able to attract a better group of players each year.

Perceptions Of The JMU ProgramWe expect to be among the top FCS programs in the nation

and feel that our recent success puts us in that grouping. We’re 69-30 over the last eight seasons, have been in the playoffs five times during that period, have won a national championship, and consistently have been nationally ranked.

One thing that puts a different light on our program is the way we won the national championship in 2004. A lot of teams have depended on home crowds to get them over the top during the playoffs. The reason we’re looked at differently is that we reached the championship game by winning games in as dif-ficult situations as you would ever want to walk into.

We feel that our players are outstanding ambassadors for our program and university. We put our recruits with our returning players, and those players do a great job conveying the many things JMU and our program can offer.

His Attraction To JMUWhat attracted me to this position was that JMU is the total

package as an institution for the student-athlete. The academic reputation of the school is very high, and I always have thought that football at JMU had tremendous potential.

JMU As A SchoolThe best salesmen for JMU are its former students. You never

find JMU alumni who don’t highly recommend the university and say that their experience here was the best four or five years of their lives.

JMU’s CampusIt’s impossible to visit JMU’s campus and

not to be impressed with its beauty and dynamic growth.

JMU’s AdministrationOur administration not only has provided

our support building, it also has been very supportive in helping us keep our staff intact. Our administrators continue to work to make sure that everything surrounding our program is handled in a first-class man-ner. They want football to be at the forefront representing JMU; and I believe that with good leadership, the sky is the limit for JMU football.

I think it is impossible to walk into our stadium and not realize that our foot-ball program gets outstanding support. President Alger, Former President Rose, Mr. King (JMU vice president) and Mr. Bourne (athletics director) all have wanted us to be successful, but they want things to be done the right way and provide us with what we need to do so.

JMU’s Support For Student-Athletes

Our associate athletics director for student-athlete services, Casey Carter, is a cornerstone, not only for football but for the entire athletics program at JMU. She puts the students first, and it shows in how she and her staff perform in their jobs on a day-to-day basis.

Influences In His Professional DevelopmentI learned from my dad that hard work and perseverance are

two keys to being successful. He worked seven days a week and always said that good things would come to people who worked hard. The second thing is that I’m a product of Texas high school football. I came up when Darrell Royal was at Texas, and he, Bum Phillips and Spike Dykes had a great deal of influence on the coaches in the state and on the game itself. I played for Gene Mayfield at West Texas State, and he started the Odessa-Permian dynasty. Finally Jim Donnan and Hal Mumme taught me about wide-open offenses and not being afraid to take chances.

At the University of Michigan, Mr. Alger played a key leadership role in the University’s efforts in two landmark Supreme Court cases on diversity and admissions and coordinated the largest amicus brief coalition in Supreme Court history. He has since advised universities nationwide on how to build and sustain diversity initiatives and programs. At the American Association of University Professors, Mr. Alger worked with faculty from around the country in developing and advising institutions nationally on policies, procedures, and cases on issues such as academic free-dom, shared governance, tenure, due process, and discrimination. At the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights, he was the point person on the development and implementation of national policies involving race-targeted financial aid, racial harass-ment and free expression. He began his career by representing major Fortune 500 companies at Morgan, Lewis & Bockius.

Mr. Alger is a nationally recognized scholar and speaker on higher education policy and law and has given hundreds of presentations across the U.S. and abroad on a wide range of topics such as ac-cess and opportunity, diversity, student and faculty recruitment and retention, management of financial challenges, student organiza-tions, shared governance, intellectual property, and academic free-dom. He has published numerous articles and has done significant editorial work for scholarly journals. At Rutgers and Michigan, he has taught courses, seminars, and independent studies in law and higher education, and served as a mentor and advisor to many students. He currently teaches an honors course on higher educa-tion law for liberal arts undergraduates, as well as a seminar on diversity issues for first-year students. He has also taught interdis-ciplinary courses for graduate students in law, education, public policy, and information.

Mr. Alger has been recognized as a leader by his peers nationally in many contexts. He is currently President and Chair of the Board of Directors of the National Association of College and University Attorneys. He sits on the American Bar Association’s Accreditation

Committee (which oversees the accredi-tation of the nation’s law schools), and has served on several accreditation site visit teams. He serves as a public member of the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Advisory Council at the National Institutes of Health, which provides advice and oversight on grant ap-plications to support biomedical research and research train-ing activities. He has served on national advisory boards for the Association of American Universities, College Board Access and Diversity Collaborative, American Association for the Advancement of Science Diversity Project (focused on the pipeline in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics disci-plines), Robert Wood Johnson Foundation-funded Valuing Diversity initiative (aimed at health dis-parities and diversi-fication of the health professions), Center for Excellence in Higher Education Law and Policy at Stetson University College of Law, and the University of Vermont’s annual national conference on Legal Issues in Higher Education. He has chaired national conferences on diversity, dis-crimination, technology, and academic freedom.

Mr. Alger was born and raised outside Rochester, New York. He received his B.A. with High Honors and Phi Beta Kappa from Swarthmore College (Political Science Major, History Minor, and Public Policy Concentration), and his J.D. with Honors from Harvard Law School. His wife Mary Ann is a business consultant with a B.S. from Auburn University and an M.B.A. from the University of Miami.

BRIDGEFORTH STADIUMBridgeforth Stadium/Zane Showker Field• Bridgeforth Stadium/Zane Showker

Field, a 24,877-seat lighted facility in the center of campus, features a FieldTurf playing surface, a state-of-the-art support facility in the south end zone, and a 24-by-60 videoboard above the south end zone.

• Construction began following the 2009 season and was completed prior to the 2011 campaign on a project that expands Bridgeforth Stadium/Zane Showker Field’s seating capacity to 24,877.

• Enhanced seating, with a club level and suites a second deck on the sta-dium’s west side, and a new media facility has been included. Permanent seating has been installed in the north end zone, and improved fan ameni-ties are available as the $62.5 million project is completed.

• The stadium is named for William E. Bridgeforth of Winchester, Va., a long-time JMU supporter and board of visitors member whose family remains very active with JMU. The playing field is named for Harrisonburg-area busi-nessman Zane Showker, a longtime JMU supporter and university board rector and for whom JMU’s business school facility is named.

ATHLETIC FACILITIESJames Madison University has made a commit-

ment to its athletics program and the facilities needed to give the teams the best opportunity to succeed in the conference, regionally and nationally.

• Godwin Hall houses a 5,000-seat gymna-sium, an 800-seat natatorium and areas for strength training and indoor practices.

• Facilities also include the 7,156-seat JMU Convocation Center for basketball and a lighted field hockey/track and field complex with a synthetic playing surface.

• JMU’s baseball and softball programs began play in the spring of 2010 in the new Veterans Memorial Stadium complex, a lighted facility that provides an outstanding playing venue for each program. The new complex includes new stadiums with top-of-the line amenities and press box as well as new offices, locker rooms and indoor practice facilities in the adjacent Memorial Hall.

• The golf programs enjoy two new on-cam-pus shortgame practice facilities, including an indoor facility with video analysis, chip-ping and putting areas as well as an outdoor facility that includes driving ability as well as chipping and putting greens with a variety of terrain to give the teams the ability to prac-tice in short time frames.

• Construction was recently completed on University Park off Port Republic Road, which has recreation facilities as well as practice and competition facilities for men’s and women’s soccer, women’s lacrosse and women’s track and field in the fall of 2012, with an eventual expansion for field hockey at the facility.

STRENGTH & CONDITIONINGStrength Program Helps Dukes Reach Their Full Potential

JMU football players benefit from a strength train-ing and conditioning program designed to develop all components of their athleticism.

The players work directly with a full-time strength training and conditioning coach assigned to the football program on a full-time basis. JMU is among only a few schools with a person dedicated solely to football in the NCAA’s Football Championship Subdivision.

The strength coach works with JMU players daily in and out of season. Those working with football include assistants Justin Jones and Donny Smith.

“Our goal is to give all athletes the opportunity to reach their full potential while training throughout the year,” said Matthews. “Our strength & condi-tioning staff assesses each athlete’s needs, allow-ing them to determine the best actions to take in preparing for competition. A program is designed for all athletes and focuses on the key components of strength and conditioning. We believe that the keys to success on the field are better developed by concentrating on building athletes’ strength, speed, power, flexibility, balance and coordination.

“Goals are set for all athletes throughout their train-ing cycles, and players must dedicate themselves to our program to reach their potential. They under-stand what it takes to be competitive; therefore, they must prepare on a daily basis in an intense environ-ment. Training in a team atmosphere can carry over onto the playing field and give us a chance to be competitive every Saturday,” Matthews said.

JMU’s program follows what players do on the field with players at each position performing drills adapted from their playbooks. Offensive players execute positional blocking techniques and run paths and pass routes; defensive players simulate various stunts, coverage routes and pursuit drills.

JMU’s football team conducts workouts in the Plecker Athletic Performance Center. The 7,000-square-foot weight room features state of the art equipment to benefit each athlete’s needs.

There are nine power lift half racks and power racks that are equipped with Ivanko Bumper Plates and E-Z Lift Plates. This equipment is the core of JMU train-ing, along with Hammer Strength and various pieces of Selectorized equipment that is used throughout each athlete’s training cycle.

To enhance the form and technique of all of the ath-letes the strength and conditioning facility has two 45-inch flat screen televisions hooked to digital cam-eras, allowing the staff to immediately correct any flaws or imperfections during their training routines.

ATHLETICS DIRECTORJeff BourneAthletics Director

Jeff Bourne is in his second decade as JMU’s athletics direc-tor, having already overseen a period of dramatic 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 2008-09, JMU celebrated an 80 percent graduation rate among its student-athletes, compared with JMU’s general student population rate of 81 percent. 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 reputa-tion 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-lev-el university in the South in the highly regarded annual poll on academic quality conducted by U.S. News & World Report for its guidebook, 2010 America’s Best Colleges.

During Bourne’s tenure more than 1,000 conference 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 scholarships.

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 program’s rating periods, and no JMU teams have been subject to APR-related penalties. Seven of JMU’s 18 teams had APR scores ranking in at least the 90th percentile of their respective sports in the most-recent APR release, the greatest number reaching that mark among any of the 12 CAA institutions.

Providing outstanding athletics facilities is a primary focus, and JMU will continue to make significant progress in this front during the com-ing year. In 2009-10, the new Veterans Memorial Stadium complex for baseball 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 renovate Bridgeforth Stadium/Zane Showker Field finished prior to the 2011 season.

The football stadium expansion project in-creased seating at the facility to nearly 25,000 and featured major enhancements, including private suites and club level seating, improved

concessions and rest-room facilities, improved lighting, and a new media facility.

Under Bourne, JMU has developed an enhanced volunteer fundraising net-work 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 success in fundrais-ing while driving football attendance to all-time records.

Major program enhance-ments in student-athlete services and academic advising, sports medicine and strength and con-ditioning have added to the overall quality of the student-athlete experience as demonstrated in annual senior exit interviews and peer program evaluations. Annual evaluation and informa-tion 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 support team. We will continue to work together toward the common goals of ensur-ing the success of our student-athletes in all of their endeavors -- academically, 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 gradu-ate our student-athletes.

“We continue to strengthen the infrastructure and facilities of the athletics program,” he said. “Our support centers and athletics personnel are dedicated to providing student-athletes with the best experience possible at the intercol-legiate level. We also are extremely pleased with the construction of the Robert and Frances Plecker Athletic Performance Center, which ben-efits 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 athletics facili-ties construction that is being planned and implemented on campus -- immediately new baseball and softball stadiums and enhancement of our foot-ball facility and later upgrades for other programs -- will provide JMU with outstanding competition sites.”

The Plecker Performance Center, which opened in 2005, is the first significant facil-ity project funded primarily through private resources in JMU athletics’ history. The $10 million 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 counsel-ing for all of JMU student-athletes take place at the facility, which also includes an outstanding computer lab and strength training and sports medicine 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 associate athletics direc-tor at Georgia Tech from 1997-99. At Georgia Tech, he supervised finance, marketing and promotions, ticketing, 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 account-ing 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 and Bridgewater gradu-ate. She serves as the Director of Technology Transfer at James Madison. Their two sons are JMU students - Jason (23) a senior and Kyle (20) a junior.

ACADEMIC ADVISINGStudent-Athletes Receive Outstanding Academic/Development Services

James Madison University has outstanding graduation and retention rates for its student-athletes, and the university’s commitment to academics -- through support services in academic advising and student development -- is a key reason they are successful in the classroom.

JMU’s Office of Student-Athlete Services provides comprehensive academic advising to freshmen and upperclassmen without declared majors as members of the univer-sity’s advising system. Advisors provide individual assistance to all student-athletes throughout their college careers, and JMU student-athletes participate in a wide range of counseling and student development, career exploration, leadership and study skills programs.

Casey Carter is JMU’s associate athletics director for academic support services Steve Henderson is the associate director. She is assisted by advisors Jennifer Burkhart, Tiffany Hall, Scott Arbogast, Joi Irby, Terrence Apted and Alise Svihla. Suzann Meyerhoeffer is admissions, tutor and housing assistant and Elaine Buthe provides office administrative support.

Academic staff members work with student-athletes to develop class schedules and to choose major fields of study; they meet weekly with all first-year student-athletes and student-athletes in academic difficulty; they monitor progress toward graduation according to JMU and NCAA eligibility guidelines; they communicate with faculty regarding academic progress and other issues; and they participate in recruiting. They also facilitate career development by discussing vocational objectives and assisting in preparing student-athletes for employment interviews and recruitment seminars con-ducted by major corporations and firms through the university’s on-campus interview-ing program.

Carter and her staff meet each semester with all JMU student-athletes to monitor compliance with NCAA progress-toward-graduation and JMU academic guidelines. The office also coordinates tutoring and lap-top loan programs which provide all student-athletes with tutors and lap-top computers for academics when athletics events necessitate time away from campus.

Additional office responsibilities include coordination of nominating student-ath-letes for awards and scholarships and implementing the NCAA CHAMPS/Life Skills Program, a program designed to provide student-athletes opportunities for personal growth in five commitment areas -- academic excellence, athletics excellence, person-al development, community service and career development. The program focuses on the holistic development of the individual and on the changing needs and skills of that individual in the years during and after college.

Carter, Burkhart, Henderson, Apted and Hall are JMU graduates, and Svihla gradu-ated from Virginia Tech. All are National Association for Athletic Academic Advisors members, and Burkhart, Apted and Hall are former JMU student-athletes.

In addition to programs available to student-athletes, all JMU students have the opportunity to meet regularly with an advisor from their major field. Student-athletes participate in the university’s orientation program before beginning classes and an orientation experience designed by the student-athlete services office during their first JMU semester. Student-athletes benefit from study halls supervised by advisors, the Greater Madison athletic honors program and NCAA progress toward graduation and degree completion programs.

Other programs provided by the university include the following: • An educational skills development laboratory that examines students’ study habits

and works to improve listening, note-taking, test-taking, reading and comprehension skills.

• A writing laboratory where students receive assistance in building vocabulary and grammar skills and preparing for graduate or professional school examinations.

• A reading, writing and mathematics support laboratory that provides assistance to freshmen.

• A reading center that provides diagnostic services for students with reading difficul-ties.

• A First-Year Involvement program designed to assist freshmen in their adjustment to university life.

• An Office of Disability Services that ensures that the university complies with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) to guarantee the rights of all students with documented disabilities equal ac-cess to an education.

• A Supplemental Instruction program that assists in student achievement and retention. SI features students helping students complete historically challenging courses.

CAA FOOTBALLFour 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 Football 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 argubly the most successful conference in the division in terms of on-the-field success, television exposure, market-ability and success of it players at the next level. The league’s marketability will only continue to grow as it adds Old Dominion to its roster in 2011, expanding further into the Tidewater market of Virginia, 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 Atlantic Coast Conference 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 postsea-son 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 unan-swered 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 semi-finalist for the fifthstraight 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 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 pres-ence 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 champion-ships 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 confer-ence has accumulated numerous individual ac-colades. 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 Ravens). 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 encom-passes 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 in-cluded 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 opera-tion control of the conference from 1997-2006, with Hofstra becoming part of the league in 2001 and Towson joining the group in 2004.

XXDIVISION I CHAMPIONSHIPThe 2013 NCAA Division I Football Championship will once again be played

in Pizza Hut Park in Frisco, Texas. Last year’s game was the first played in the facility after the championship game was relocated from Chattanooga, Tenn.

Opened on August 6, 2005, Pizza Hut Park is a 145-acre multipurpose sports and entertainment facility located at the intersection of Main Street and Dallas North Tollway in Frisco, Texas and is the home of Major League Soccer’s FC Dallas.

The combination of a world-class stadium and a sports park make Pizza Hut Park one of the best and most unique soccer facilities in the world. Included in the facility is the 20,500 state-of-the-art pro soccer stadium which features a built-in stage on the north end and 26 suites that are ap-proximately 500 square feet in size. Located on the west side of the stadium, the suites are immediately above the lower bowl seating area and provide an outstanding view of both the playing field and the concert stage. By add-ing field seats above a state-of-the art Terraflor covering, the stadium can accommodate over 27,000 fans for concerts.

2011 GAME #1James Madison football spotted North Carolina

an early 21-0 lead, and eventually fell to the hosts 42-10 in the season opener for both squads, Sept. 3. Madison falls to 0-2 all-time against the Tar Heels.

JMU began the game slowly, allowing UNC to score on three of its first four possessions. UNC sophomore quarterback Bryn Renner connected with senior wide receiver Dwight Jones for a 34-yard touchdown pass and senior Casey Barth followed with the extra point, giving UNC an early lead of 7-0 with less than four minutes gone. On the next possession, JMU was backed up deep and forced to punt, and Carolina's Todd Harrelson returned the ball 19 yards to the JMU 22. Two plays later, true freshman running back Giovani Bernard ran 12 yards for the score. Barth recorded his second extra point of the game, giving the Tar Heels a 14-0 advantage with just under five minutes left to play in the opening period. Early in the second quarter, senior running back Ryan Houston rushed for the third touchdown of the game for UNC, this time a 1-yarder. Barth once again cleared the goal post, bringing Carolina's lead to 21-0.

JMU tallied its first points of the 2011 season when redshirt-junior quarterback Justin Thorpe connected with redshirt-freshman wide reciever Daniel Brown for a 41-yard touchdown pass. Sophomore kicker Cameron Starke completed the point-after attempt, making the score 21-7 late in the second quarter. However, Carolina responded immediately, cover 67 yards in just 1:26, with Bernard going the final 14 yards into the end zone with just over a minute remaining in the half and the extra point gave UNC a 28-7 halftime advantage.

The Dukes opened the second half with a 19-play drive over 10:06. Starke capped off the 55-yard drive, that included two successful fourth-down conver-sions, with a 31-yard field goal. The 19-play march for JMU is the longest scoring drive under Head Coach Mickey Matthews.

Carolina's Renner pushed into the endzone for an early fourth quarter touchdown, scoring on a 1-yard sneak to push the lead to 35-10. The final touchdown for UNC came with under nine minutes to go in the fourth quarter on a 21-yard pass from Renner to Jones, providing the final 42-10 margin.

UNC outgained JMU in total yardage 461 to 211 and in rushing yards 184-59. The Dukes held a time of possession advantage of 31:04 to 28:56 and com-mitted no turnovers in the game.

Redshirt-sophomore tailback Jordan Anderson led JMU in rushing with 40 yards on 13 carries and Thorpe was 11-for-15 through the air for 152 yards and one touchdown. Redshirt-sophomore linebacker Stephon Robertson tallied eight tackles, including 0.5 tackles for loss, to lead the Dukes. Redshirt-freshman safety Dean Marlowe had his first collegiate intercep-tion in the second quarter and added four tackles during the game to the effort.

UNC's Renner set a new ACC record for pass completion percentage by completing 22 of his 23 pass attempts for 277 yards and two scores. The .957 percentage is now second in NCAA history for a passer with 20-29 attempts. Jones had nine recep-tions for 116 yards and two scores, while Bernard was the game's leading rusher with nine carries for 64 yards and a pair of touchdowns.

2011 GAME #2In front of a record-setting 25,102 fans at the ex-

panded Bridgeforth Stadium/Zane Showker Field, James Madison held on for its first victory of the season against Central Connecticut State 14-9 on Saturday night.

JMU, ranked 19th nationally in the Sports Network FCS poll, improved to 1-1 as head coach Mickey Mat-thews won his ninth consecutive home opener.

The Dukes took the early lead with a six-play, 87-yard drive on their second possession as junior quarterback Justin Thorpe hit junior Jon Sharp on a 28-yard pass. That 7-0 lead held until the Blue Devils connected on a 35-yard field goal early in the fourth quarter.

CCSU then had an opportunity to take the lead, recovering a fumble on the ensuing kickoff. However, the Blue Devils came up three yards short on a fake field goal attempt.

After exchanging possessions, the Dukes finally put the game away with a quick 36-yard drive, culminat-ing in an eight-yard plunge by redshirt sophomore Dae'Quan Scott out of the wildcat formation.

The Blue Devils added a touchdown on the final play of the game with Chris Tolbert scoring on a three-yard rush with the two-point conversion failing.

Scott racked up 145 yards on the ground on 20 car-ries as the Dukes outrushed the Blue Devils 342-146 with an average of 7.6 yards per rush. Thorpe was 5-for-11 passing with one touchdown and two passes intercepted.

Brian Fowler led the Blue Devils with 95 yards on the ground on 21 carries. Quarterback Gunnar Jespersen was 14-for-33 with two interceptions.

After its first drive ended in an interception, JMU rushed its first five times on its second possession,

including 31 yards by redshirt sophomore Jordan An-derson. The five runs set the stage for Thorpe's 28-yard strike over the middle to an open Sharp in the endzone.

The Dukes came up empty on their next four first-half possessions. However, they also limited the Blue Devils to 62 total yards in the opening half with all five drives ending in punts.

After holding CCSU to three-and-out on its first possession of the second half, the Dukes put together a 63-yard drive to the one yard line only to see a fumble end the possession.

From that point, JMU tallied just 16 total yards on its next two possessions, leading to the CCSU field goal. After that 10-play, 57-yard drive by the Blue Devils, the Dukes' defense was forced back onto the field with the fumbled kickoff at the 37-yard line.

However, the JMU defense, led by sophomore Ste-phon Robertson's career-high 14 tackles, held off CCSU on the next possession. With the Blue Devils lined up for a 25-yard field goal attempt, Lawton Arnold rushed to the right side on a fake attempt and was tackled out of bounds at the three yard line.

JMU then drove 63 yards past midfield but was forced to punt with 5:12 remaining on the clock. Red-shirt junior David Skahn pinned CCSU at the five. The record crowd then made itself heard with two false start penalties pushing the Blue Devils back further and forcing them to punt.

That stop set up the Dukes in short field position. Redshirt senior Kerby Long and Scott traded rushes of 11, nine and eight yards before Long's eight-yard rush all but clinched the victory.

CCSU ran the final 3:01 off the clock on a 16-play drive with Tolbert's plunge on the final play of the game.

2011 GAME #3In an offensive battle of nationally-ranked Commonwealth teams, kicker

Cameron Starke hit a career-long 40-yard field goal to lift #13 James Madison to a 27-24 victory at #20 Liberty, Sept. 17. With the win, the Dukes snapped the Flames nine-game home win streak.

Midway through the fourth with the game tied at 24, the team's traded possessions and the Dukes got the ball on their own 25-yard line with 2:11 to play after a 59-yard punt by Matt Larsson. On 3rd-and-4, Redshirt-junior quarterback Justin Thorpe hit redshirt-senior Kerby Long with a 32-yard pass down the middle to move it to the Liberty 37. Another JMU first down and a 4-yard rush got the ball to the Flames' 23 with two seconds to play. LU called a timeout to try to ice Starke, but the redshirt sophomore split the uprights to get the win.

The Dukes were outgained by the hosts 372-314, though JMU had one of its most-balanced games in recent history with 173 yards on the ground and 141 yards through the air. The defense did limit Liberty's ground game to just 74 yards on the night. The game was marred by penalties with the teams combining for more than 200 yards of penalties. Madison was solid on third downs, going 8-for-13 on third downs, while also putting points on the board all four times in the red zone.

Redshirt-sophomore Dae'Quan Scott led the Dukes with his second-straight 100-yard rushing game as he had 29 carries for 126 yards and three scores. Thorpe was 13-for-18 through the air for 141 yards while having 11 carries for 30 yards. Long had a season-high six catches for 61 yards, including the key late catch.

Liberty was led by quarterback Mike Brown who was 24-for-29 for 298 yards, two touchdowns and one interception, with wide receiver B.J. Hayes had career highs of nine catches for 158 yards and one touchdown.

JMU won the coin toss and elected to receive, with redshirt-sophomore Jordan Anderson returning the opening kick 32 yards to the JMU 45. Thorpe connected with redshirt-sophomore Renard Robinson for an early 24-yard third-down conversion. Scott had a big 24-yard run to set up the Dukes inside the LU 5. On 2nd-and-goal, Scott got in the end zone standing up to cap the seven-play, 55-yard drive. Starke's point after giving the visitors an early 7-0 lead less than four minutes into the game.

Liberty had two chances to cut into the lead, including getting inside the Dukes' 10 on its second drive. However, kicker Matt Bevins came up short on a

pair of kicks, snapping his 16-straight made streak, and JMU continued to lead 7-0 early in the second quarter.

JMU turned the field again, putting together a 14-play, 59-yard drive, taking up almost eight minutes on the clock. However the drive stalled at the Liberty 15, and Starke converted a 32-yard field from the left hash mark to push the Madison lead to 10-0 with 5:07 to go in the half.

The host Flames got it back into Madison territory with a 28-yard pass from Brown to Hayes, getting the ball at the JMU 34. A pair of roughing-the-passer penalties against the Dukes gave Liberty the ball first-and-goal at the 6-yard line. However, the JMU defense held and forced a 24-yard field goal by redshirt-freshman Alex Kacere to trim the lead to 10-3 with less than two minutes remaining in the second and was the eventual halftime margin.

The host Flames got the opening kick of the second half and immediately moved down the field, starting at the JMU 42 after a return to the Liberty 43 and a 15-yard personal foul penalty against the Dukes. Ten plays later, Brown found the end zone on the ground from two yards out and Kacere hit the point after to knot the game at 10 early in the second half.

JMU had an immediate answer, putting together another sustained drive of 10 plays, covering 74 yards in 4:56. After mixing the run and pass effectively on the drive, Scott took the handoff on a 3rd-and-1 at the LU 10, broke two tackles and found the end zone for his second touchdown of the game. Starke tacked on the point after and the lead was back to seven at 17-10 with 4:32 left in the third.

Liberty came back again and put points on the board, going eight plays and 68 yards on its drive. It ended with a 5-yard pass from Brown to Hayes and the extra point tied the game again at 17 with under a minute to go in the third period.

Madison kept the ball moving down the field again, this time a nine-play march down the field. Scott scored his third touchdown of the game, this time from two yards out. JMU went back ahead 24-17 with just over 12 minutes to play in the contest.

The trading of scores continued as Liberty managed more big plays on its next drive, moving the ball quickly against the Madison defense. It took only three plays to go 47 yards after a good kick return, with the result a 43-yard touchdown pass from Brown to wide receiver Chris Summers to again tie the game at 24 with 7:45 remaining, setting up the sequence of plays for the final heroics.

2011 GAME #4In front of a sold-out Zable Stadium crowd, #10 James Madison

utilized a strong ground game, good defense overall and a key turnover conversion to come away with 20-14 at #5 William & Mary in the Colonial Athletic Association opener for both squads, Sept. 24.

After a scoreless first period where both teams failed to convert fourth downs, including one deep in Tribe territory, the Dukes got on the scoreboard with the opening play of the second quarter. Redshirt-junior quarterback Justin Thorpe connected with redshirt-senior wide receiver Kerby Long for a 52-yard touchdown pass, which included Long hurtling a W&M defender at the Tribe 20 and breaking away from two others. Redshirt-sophomore kicker Cameron Starke hit the point after and Madison had a 7-0 lead.

Madison again found the scoreboard on its next drive, moving the ball inside William & Mary's 10. However, the drive stalled deep, forc-ing a field goal attempt from 26 yards out. Starke connected from the right hash on his fourth straight make, giving the Dukes a 10-0 lead with just under eight minutes remaining in the first half. The Dukes held through the remainder of the half and entered halftime with the 10-point advantage.

After being backed up to its own 1 on its second drive of the third quarter, William & Mary used three key pass plays to get on the board and complete a 99-yard drive. After a 34-yard completion from Michael Graham to Ryan Moody got them out of their own end zone, Graham connected two times with D.J. Mangas, including the final 38 yards for the touchdown. Drake Kuhn hit the point after and the margin was trimmed to three at 10-7 JMU with 3:52 to play in the third.

The Dukes' defense made up for the previous drive the next time on the field, as redshirt-sophomore Stephon Robertson dislodged the ball from running back Keith McBridge and redshirt-freshman defensive tackle Anthony McDaniel fell on it to give JMU the ball on the W&M 24. Thorpe made a key run by freezing a Tribe defender for a 15-yard pickup to the Tribe 11. From there, three plays later, the Dukes got in

the end zone on a bootleg pitch to redshirt-sophomore running back Dae'Quan Scott, who outran three Tribe defenders to the left corner. Starke hit the point after and the lead was back to 10 at 17-7 with just under 14 minutes left to play.

Another JMU drive chewed up yardage and time on the clock, as the Dukes went 60 yards in 12 plays and taking more than seven minutes off the clock. W&M's defense held JMU out of the end zone bdut Starke added a 34-yarder and the margin grew to 20-7 JMU with 4:17 remaining in the game.

senior defensive end D.J. Bryant recovered at the 37-yard line to send Madison into the half with a 14-7 advantage.

In the opening drive of the second half, the Dukes snuffed out a fake punt as redshirt senior safety Vidal Nelson intercepted punter Nick Hicks’ throw to set the Dukes’ up at their own 30. The Dukes went 70 yards In just three minutes in a six-play scoring drive. Anderson broke off the drives’ big play, scoring from 45 yards out to stretch the JMU lead to 21-7.

Starting the fourth quarter at its own one-yard line, Richmond was forced to punt and JMU began its next possession on its own 47. On the second play of the drive, Anderson outraced the UR defense, scoring from 49-yards out for his second touchdown of the day.

On the ensuing drive, JMU’s defensive line continued its domi-nation as it forced another three-and-out to set up a 44-yard field goal by Starke to cap the day’s scoring at 31-7.

Harold finished the day with two and a half sacks and a pair of forced fumbles to lead the defense. Redshirt senior defensive tackle Lamar Middleton added two tackles for loss, including a sack while redshirt senior linebacker Pat Williams had a team-high eight tackles.

2011 GAME #6James Madison scored first in a close overtime game, however Maine

responded quickly and Christopher Treister's two-point conversion run clenched a 25-24 win at Bridgeforth Stadium/Zane Showker field on Saturday night.

In a tie game for the majority of the second half JMU took the lead on Cameron Starke's 32-yard field goal with 2:06 remaining in the game. Maine then marched quickly down the field and knotted the game again at 17-17 on a 34-yard field goal to send the game into overtime.

Maine won the toss and elected to defend first. Jordan Anderson rushed six straight times to get it to the one yard line before Jace Edwards went the final yard for a rushing touchdown.

On Maine's third play of its possession, quarterback Warren Smith found Justin Perillo for an eight-yard pass in the right corner of the end zone. On the conversion attempt, Treister lined up by himself behind the center with the line offset to the far left. He rushed to his right and went head-over-heels into the end zone for the game-winner.

James Madison outrushed the Black Bears with 304 rushing yards on 51 carries. The running backs for the Dukes averaged six yards per rush compared to the Black Bears three yards per rush.

Anderson had his second straight career-high-rushing game with 212 yards. The last time the Dukes had a single player rush over 200 yards was Rodney Landers with 206 yards on September 13, 2008 against Massachusetts. Anderson's 212 yards is also the seventh all-time rushing high for the Dukes and is the most since Curtis Keaton had 237 against Connecticut in 1999.

With 6:41 left in the first quarter, the Dukes quickly got on the board with the first play of their second possession. On his first carry of the day, redshirt sophomore Anderson burst through a hole, broke a late tackle attempt and scampered for a career-long 80-yard touchdown. Starke completed the point-after attempt, making the score 7-0 in favor of James Madison.

Maine put up points in the middle of the second quarter after putting together a 14-play, 79-yard drive over seven minutes. The drive culminated as Smith hooked up with wide receiver Maurice McDonald for a 5-yard scoring pass. Kicker Brian Harvey's point after was good and the game was tied at seven midway through the second quarter.

On the next possession, JMU started on its own 40 after a kickoff out of bounds and took advantage of the good field position, going 60 yards in just eight plays. Redshirt sophomore running back Dae'Quan Scott took it the final four yards and Starke again was good on the PAT, making it 14-7 Madison with just over four minutes to play in the half.

The Black Bears didn't let the Dukes lead long, getting into the end zone on their next drive to tie the game back up with 45 seconds left in the half. After a key 18-yard run by Smith on third-and-seven from the JMU 22, run-ning back Terrel Walker scored on the next play with a four-yard run. Harvey hit the point after and the game went into the halftime break tied at 14.

After a scoreless third and majority of the fourth quarter, the Dukes ended the scoring drought and got back on the board, taking the lead with a little over two minutes left in the game. The Dukes' scoring drive took almost seven minutes from the clock and ended with a 32-yard field goal by Starke.

On Maine's next possession, the Black Bears made it back on the scoreboard quickly on a drive that lasted only a little over a minute. The entire drive covered 47 yards and ended with a 34-yard field goal made by Harvey. The field goal tied up the score and gave the Dukes their first home overtime game since November 16, 2002 against William & Mary.

In overtime, James Madison started with the ball on the Maine 25-yard line and in seven plays made it into the end zone with a final rush by Edwards. The PAT by Starke was good and Maine received ball on the JMU 25-yard line. On the third play, the Black Bears' quarterback, Smith, threw a completed eight-yard pass to Justin Perillo into the end zone. Maine faked the PAT and Treister took a direct snap, rushing into the end zone for two points and a 25-24 Maine victory.

Edwards threw 13-for-17 for 98 yards and added 20 yards rushing. Freshman wide receiver DeAndre' Smith led the team in receiving yards at 26 through a total of five catches.

On the defense, redshirt sophomore linebacker Stephon Robertson led the team in tackles, racking up a total of 12, while redshirt senior Pat Williams closely followed with 10.

Smith finished 28-for-40 and 295 yards passing with two touchdowns through the air for the Black Bears. Perillo had 101 yards on nine catches while McDonald also had nine catches for 67 yards.

scored 28 unanswered points in the second half to secure a 34-10 victory over Villanova in a Colonial Athletic Association football game Oct. 15 at Bridgeforth Stadium/Zane Showker Field.

JMU sophomore tailback Jordan Anderson's rush into the end zone gave JMU its first lead. That was followed by sophomore tail-back Dae'Quan Scott's touchdown run on a swing pass from fresh-man quarterback Jace Edwards, the first of his career. Edwards then connected on his longest career pass, an 80-yard touchdown strike to senior wide receiver Kerby Long. Anderson capped the offensive burst with his third touchdown of the game on an 8-yard rush.

James Madison finished the game with 23 first downs and 456 yards of total offense on a balanced 253 rushing yards and 203 passing yards. Villanova tallied 107 yards of rushing and 127 total passing yards.

After a scoreless first quarter, Villanova posted the first points of the game with a 25-yard touchdown pass from Dustin Thomas to Kenny Miles with 8:53 left in the second quarter.

James Madison responded with a five-play scoring drive as Anderson rushed 22 yards into the end zone with 6:10 left in the second quarter. Sophomore kicker Cameron Starke's attempt at the extra point was wide left and ricocheted off the uprights, making the score 7-6 with Villanova still on top.

With 30 seconds left in the first half, Long's option pass attempt from the 18-yard line was intercepted in the end zone by Villanova's James Pitts, keeping the score at 7-6 Villanova at the half.

and capped an eight-play drive with a 41-yard field goal by Mark Hamilton. The field goal came after Dustin Thomas was sacked by senior cornerback Mike Allen for a eight-yard loss with Villanova recovering a loose ball to set up the field goal attempt.

On the ensuing JMU drive, Edwards' 41-yard pass to freshman wide receiver Daniel Brown brought the team to the Villanova 5-yard line. Consecutive Anderson rushes of four yards and one yard put the Dukes in the end zone to take the lead for the first time at 13-10.

After holding Villanova three-and-out, JMU quickly increased the score to 20-10 with 1:44 left in the third quarter on an eight-play, 87-yard scoring drive. Scott ran for 12 yards into the Villanova end zone on a completed Edwards pass.

On Villanova's next position into the early fourth quarter, the Wildcats reached the 30-yard line. Pressured by JMU freshman cornerback Corey Davis, Thomas' pass attempt to Dorian Wells on fourth-and-long was incomplete to end the drive.

With 12:27 left in the fourth quarter, Edwards threw his longest career touchdown pass of 80 yards to Long, who made a leaping catch over the receiver near midfield and broke a pair of tackles on his way to the end zone for a 27-10 JMU lead. Edwards' 80-yard pass is the longest for the Dukes since the 2003 season when Jayson Cooke threw for 81 yards to Tahir Hinds in a contest against Rhode Island.

JMU scored its final touchdown of the game with 4:30 left on the clock as Anderson rushed eight yards to conclude a four-play, 30-yard scoring drive in just over two minutes of play. The short field was set up by a 40-yard interception return by Ryan Smith.

Junior safety Smith, junior cornerback Leavander Jones and sophomore linebacker Stephon Robertson each recorded eight tackles to lead the Dukes defense.

2011 GAME #8In the first-ever football meeting between the two programs, the #9

James Madison football team lost a tight Colonial Athletic Association battle at #15 Old Dominion, falling to the host Monarchs, 23-20, Oct. 29.

A key part of the story was JMU's offensive line, as three starters went down during the game, two in the first half and one early in the second. This stymied the Dukes to just 76 yards of offense in the second half after putting together 266 in the first.

JMU had one last chance late in the game after getting the ball at its own 28, trailing by three. The Dukes got it down to the ODU 30-yard line but sophomore kicker Cameron Starke had his 47-yard field goal attempt blocked at the line of scrimmage as time expired.

JMU was slightly outgained overall, as ODU had 362 yards of offense to 342 for JMU. The Dukes had 103 yards of rushing and a season-high 239 yards of passing. JMU also held a slight time advantage, holding the ball 31:44 in the game.

ODU took opening kickoff and went 75 yards in eight plays for the game's first score. The final play came on 17-yard touchdown from freshman quarterback Taylor Heinecke to wide receiver Larry Pinkard. The extra point by Jarod Brown was good and the Monarchs had an early 7-0 lead.

JMU answered with a 12-play, 60-yard drive of its own. However, the drive stalled at the Monarch's 15 yard line. Starke split the uprights from 32 yards out, his eighth-straight made field goal, and the ODU lead was trimmed to 7-3 with 4:55 to play in the first quarter.

After JMU's defense forced a 3-and-out possession, the Dukes got the ball back on their own 29 yard line. A 36-yard pass from redshirt-freshman quarterback Jace Edwards to sophomore wide receiver Renard Robinson on the first play put JMU back on the ODU side of the field at the 40. Six plays later, sophomore running back Dae'Quan Scott went around right end and cut through a hole to score the touchdown and put JMU up 10-7 at the end of the first quarter.

Old Dominion came back and appeared to be stopped short of the end zone. On 4th-and-1 from the 23-yard line, the snap was fumbled by Heinecke who was scrambling and threw a prayer into the end zone, which was caught by for a touchdown by Pinkard, giving the hosts a 14-10 lead early in the second.

Madison punched the ball on the end zone to the cap its next pos-session. Another key play a 34-yard pass from Edwards to wide receiver Daniel Brown to put the ball deep in ODU territory. Scott took it the final five yards for his second touchdown of the game and the Dukes had a 17-14 advantage with just over nine minutes to go until halftime.

Another stop for the Dukes' defense resulted in the ball coming back to JMU. From there, Madison put together a 13-play, 74-yard drive that chewed up just over six minutes on the game clock. However, the drive was squelched at the ODU 6. Starke came on and banged through his second field goal of the game, this time from 23 yards out, to push it to a 20-14 lead for the visitors with 46 seconds left in the half.

ODU got the ball in position for one final field goal attempt, but senior Taveion Cuffee came off the end and blocked Brown's 45-yard attempt and Madison went into the locker room with a six-point halftime lead.

After a muffed kickoff resulted in JMU not getting out of its own 10 on the first possession, ODU got the ball on the Dukes' 41 for its first drive of the second half. The drive was stopped at the JMU 3, forcing the field goal attempt. Brown hit the 19 yarder and the lead was down to 20-17 Madison with 9:45 to go in the third.

After several changes of possession, ODU put points on the board again. The 8-play, 53-yard drive again ended in JMU territory and Brown hit a 40-yard field goal attempt to tie the game at 20 with 2:05 to go in the third quarter.

The host Monarchs took the lead again on their first drive of the second half, going 56 yards in 10 plays over 2:34. Heinecke keyed the drive with his feet, getting out of the pocket at the right time and eluding the JMU defense for a 33-yard run to get the ball at the Dukes' 11. However, the Madison defense stiffened again at the right time, forcing a 25-yard field goal by Brown that made it 23-20 ODU with 12:14 to play in the game.

Edwards finished the game 17-for-26 for a career-high 239 yards and no turnovers, while Scott was the leading rusher for the Dukes with 16 carries for 77 yards and two scores before his injury in the third quarter. Junior tight end Brian Barlow had career-highs of eight catches for 79 yards. Sophomore linebacker Stephon Robertson led the Dukes with 11 total tackles, the sixth time in eight games he has led JMU.

2011 GAME #9DURHAM, N.H. – No. 13 James Madison could not find an answer

for the No. 9 New Hampshire offense in the first half nor how to get through the UNH defense in the second half in a 28-10 Colonial Athletic Association road loss, Nov. 5. With their second-consecutive defeat, the Dukes fall to 5-4 and 3-3 in the CAA, while the Wildcats moved to 7-2 and 5-1 in league action.

Despite starting four straight drives of the second half in UNH ter-ritory, the Dukes were unable to come away with any points on any of the four, including missing on a 4th and 1 at the UNH 2-yard line early in the fourth quarter and a 4th-and-5 midway through the final period. A key play during this time was an apparent 17-yard touchdown pass from redshirt-freshman Jace Edwards to junior tight end Brian Barlow that was called back on a questionable holding call. On the ensuing play, Edwards was intercepted, ending the scoring threat.

Madison was outgained 330-295 and UNH held the ball for 31:59 of the game. Penalties were a key also, as the Dukes were penalized eight times for 73 yards, while the Wildcats were just flagged four times for 19 yards. Kickoff returns were another key, as the hosts returned their three kickoffs for an average of 33.7 yards, averaging starting at the JMU 43 on the first three possessions of the game.

UNH scored on the first drive of the game, utilizing 20-yard pass completion and 23-yard run and marching it down the field 51 yards in less than a minute and a half. Running back Dontra Peters scored from three yards out for the touchdown. Known to be willing to try a gadget play, UNH then split out in three groups for a two-point conversion, resulting in a complete pass from quarterback Kevin Decker to Chris Setian to make it 8-0 Wildcats less than two minutes into the contest.

JMU gets going on, as sophomore running back Dae’Quan Scott took good blocking and scampered 56 yards on the Dukes’ first offensive play of the game. Three plays later, the drive stalled at the 8 and sophomore kicker Cameron Starke hit the 25-yard field goal to make it 8-3 UNH with 10:59 to go in first.

A big kickoff return for the Wildcats and a penalty gives them ball at JMU 25 to start the drive. D.J. Bryant's sack of Decker keeps UNH out of the end zone but Mike MacArthur hits from 36 yards out to make it 11-3 UNH less than halfway through the first.

JMU kept the offense rolling with a mix of run and pass on its second drive. Another Scott run, this time for 20 yards, got the ball into UNH terrirtory. On first down from the Wildcats’ 14, Edwards rolled out on a bootleg to the left and found Barlow in the end zone for the touchdown. Starke hit the point after and the UNH lead was down to one at 11-10 late in the first quarter.

The Wildcats had an immediate answer, getting down the field with the aid of another personal foul call against the Dukes. On third-and-10 from the JMU 19, Decker threw a perfect pass to a tightly-covered tight end Sean Cullen for the touchdown in the right corner of the end zone. The extra point pushed it back to an eight-point lead for the hosts, 18-10 with just under a minute left in the first period.

UNH continued its offensive success, moving the ball again down the field. This time, the Wildcats scored on a 9-yard touchdown run by Peters, his second of the game. The extra point made it 25-10 with 11:22 to go in the first half.

The final score of the game came late in the fourth, as MacArthur his a 21-yard field goal for the final margin.

Scott finished the game with 13 carries for 111 yards, his fifth 100-yard game of the season, while Edwards was 18-for-31 for 159 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions while playing on an injured ankle for a majority of the game. Senior wide receiver Kerby Long led the receivers with five catches for 50 yards. Redshirt-freshman safety Dean Marlowe led the Dukes with 12 tackles, eight of them solos, with one tackle for loss while junior safety Jakarie Jackson tallied nine tackles with seven solos.

Peters led the ground game for the Wildcats with 16 carries for 87 yards and two scores, while Decker was 21-for-31 for 186 yards, one touchdown and one interception.

2011 GAME #10Led by 127 rushing yards and two touchdowns from Dae'Quan

Scott, No. 19 James Madison defeated Rhode Island 31-13 in front of a Senior Day crowd of 25,096 at Bridgeforth Stadium/Zane Showker Field, Nov. 12.

JMU posted 241 of its 332 total yards on the ground, averag-ing nearly six yards per carry. Meanwhile, the Dukes' defense recorded four takeaways and surrendered just 140 yards through the first three quarters before the Rams tacked on a pair of scoring drives late in the game.

Scott rushed for 127 yards and two touchdowns on just 13 carries, scoring on rushes of 66 and 21 yards in the third quarter to help the Dukes build a 28-0 lead. In his first action since Sept. 24, redshirt-junior quarterback Justin Thorpe rushed for 88 yards on 19 carries with a touchdown to go with 91 yards passing and a score.

On JMU's first possession, Thorpe capped a quick five-play, 64-yard drive with a 10-yard rush up the middle for the first touchdown of the game. Thorpe rushed for 44 yards on three car-ries on the drive. The extra point attempt by redshirt-sophomore kicker Cameron Starke was good, giving JMU a 7-0 advantage with 8:16 to go in the first quarter.

In the next quarter, Thorpe threw a 24-yard touchdown to the right corner of the end zone to redshirt-sophomore wide receiver Renard Robinson with 9:13 to go in the second quarter. It was Robinson's first touchdown of the season.

Rhode Island drove deep into JMU territory late in the second quarter. However, redshirt-freshman Dean Marlowe's intercep-tion at the JMU 27 stopped the threat, preserving Madison's 14-0 halftime advantage.

Rhode Island got its first points of the game with 12:51 to go in the contest on an 11-yard touchdown rush by sophomore quarterback Robert Bentsen. A blocked extra point by JMU redshirt-senior Lamar Middleton left the score at 28-6.

After a Thorpe fumble, URI took possession at the JMU 40 yard line with 11:06 to go in the fourth. However, redshirt-senior Vidal Nelson forced a fumble, which was then recovered by Robertson on the JMU 10 to end the threat.

After JMU was stopped three-and-out and following a sack of URI, redshirt-senior Pat Williams intercepted Bentsen's pass at the JMU 30 to end another drive. The Dukes converted the turnover into points. Thorpe connected with Robinson for a 52-yard pass to the Rams' 10 to set up a 25-yard Starke field goal for a 31-6 lead with 4:10 remaining.

The Rams scored their final touchdown of the evening with eight seconds on the clock as Bentsen maneuvered his way into the end zone from one yard out. The extra point by Louis Feinstein followed, accounting for the 31-13 final score.

2012 JMU Football - 120

In an important game for its playoff hopes, No. 19 James Madison put up 24 first-half points and rode it to 34-17 Colonial Athletic Association victory at Massachusetts, Nov. 19.

Redshirt sophomore Dae'Quan Scott rushed for a career-high and team season-high 251 rushing yards and 11th 200-yard game in school his-tory. It was the second-most single-game rushing yards in school history, surpassed only by Warren Marshall's 264 yards against William & Mary in 1986. He also surpassed the 1,000-yard mark for the season, finishing the game with 1,166 yards.

After forcing a 3-and-out on UMass' first drive, the Dukes got the ball on the Minutemen 48 after a short punt into a stiff wind. From there, the Dukes went to work on the ground, with three long combined runs by Scott and redshirt freshman Jordan Anderson. On the sixth play, Anderson plunged in from the 1-yard line for the score. Redshirt sophomore kicker Cameron Starke knocked through the point after and Madison led 7-0 less than four minutes into the game.

On the ensuing drive, UMass went back on second down to pass and pressure from redshirt senior defensive end D.J. Bryant forced quarterback Kellen Pagel to throw off his back foot. Redshirt senior cornerback Mike Allen picked it off at the UMass 44, picked up several blocks and returned it for a touchdown. It was Allen's second interception of the year and first career defensive touchdown, giving JMU an early 14-0 lead.

JMU forced a UMass punt at the Dukes 48, but the rugby punt hit a Madison player and UMass recovered it at the JMU 16. From there, UMass was unable to punch it in the end zone on three plays from the Dukes' 6. Kicker Brandon Yelovich hit the 20-yard field goal attempt to trim the margin to 14-3 with 1:55 to play in the first quarter.

The Dukes answered with a score of their own on the next drive, going on an 11-play, 56-yard march down the field. However, JMU could not find the end zone and Starke was forced to try a 25-yard field goal, which split the uprights for a 17-3 lead with just under 11 minutes to go in the half.

The Madison offense continued to move down the field efficiently on its next drive, going the 80 yards in eight plays. To cap off the drive, Scott scooted through the line, picking up two solid blocks at the line of scrimmage and downfield, and scored from 18 yards out to push the Dukes' lead to 24-3 with 5:07 to play in the first half.

After stopping JMU on its first possession of the second half, Massachu-setts moved down the field quickly for a score. On the first play, Pagel hit

running back Jonathan Hernandez in the left flat and the back broke two tackles and went 53 yards to go to the Dukes' 11. On the next play, Alan Wil-liams took it in for the touchdown, with the point after trimming the lead to 24-10 with 11:25 to go in the half.

On the next offensive play, Scott went around the left side of the line, got blocking on the edge, and ran 76 yards for the touchdown to put the Dukes up 31-10. The rush put Scott over the 100-yard mark in a game for the seventh time this season.

UMass responded with 13-play, 72-yard drive over 4:05 to put points on the board again. This time, Pagle found tight end Rob Blanchflower open in the right flat and he went into the end zone from nine yards out. The point after was good and the lead was again back down to 14 at 31-17 with just under seven minutes to play in the third.

Madison made it a three-score game on a drive early in the fourth quarter. The Dukes were stopped short of the end zone, but Starke hit on his fourth-straight field goal, this one from 38 yards out, to make it a 34-17 lead for JMU with just under 12 minutes to go in the contest.

UMass tried to close the final gap with a drive late in the game, but the fourth-down pass from the JMU 6 was incomplete, giving the ball back to Mad-ison with 17-point lead. From there, the Dukes ran out the clock for the win.

For the game, JMU outgained the hosts 427-304, including limiting the Minutemen to just 68 yards on the ground. JMU's 386 rushing yards were a season best, the most rushing yards given up by Minutemen this season and the first time since 2008 UMass allowed 300 yards rushing in a game. The Dukes held a significant time of possession advantage, holding the ball for 37:27 of the game's 60 minutes, including 31:31 of the final three quarters. Madison also converted 8-of-14 on third down conversions.

Anderson also added to the rushing attack, with 20 carries for 81 yards and one score, with redshirt junior quarterback Justin Thorpe had eight carries for 46 yards. Redshirt sophomore linebacker Stephon Robertson led the Dukes with 11 tackles on the game, all solos, including one sack.

Robertson's impact was felt by UMass' leading rusher Jonathan Her-nandez, who entered the game among the league's leaders at more than 100 yards per game. For the contest, Hernandez was limited to just 47 yards on 15 carries, a 3.1 yards per carry average, and three catches for 61 yards. Pagel finished the game going 20-for-36 for 236 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions, with wide receiver Julian Talley his main target with six receptions for 57 yards.

XX2011 GAME #12Redshirt-sophomore Cameron Starke drilled a 35-yard field goal into a

strong wind as time expired to lift #17 James Madison to a 20-17 win at Eastern Kentucky in the opening round of the NCAA Division I Football Championship at Roy Kidd Stadium, Nov. 26. It was the Dukes' third consecutive victory.

Late in the fourth quarter, JMU halted EKU's drive as redshirt-sophomore Stephon Robertson flushed quarterback T.J. Pryor from the pocket and forced him into redshirt-senior linebacker Pat Williams for a sack at the EKU 18. Jordan Berry's 46-yard punt was muffed but recovered by JMU to give them possession on its own 36. From there, the Dukes got a first down and moved to the EKU 43 for a 4th-and-2 with 1:34 left in regulation. The Colonels called a time out as JMU was setting up to punt. The Dukes reconsidered, sending the offense out for the play and converting it as redshirt-sophomore running back Dae'Quan Scott got four yards to keep the drive alive. Madison earned another first down and got the ball down to the EKU 19 with one second remaining. Two time outs were called by the hosts to try and ice the JMU kicker, but Starke stepped up and drilled his second game-winning field goal of the season down the middle to propel the Dukes to the second round.

JMU controlled the flow of the game, holding the ball for a staggering 40:30 of the contest while outgaining the Colonels 393-213. In the second half alone, JMU has 52 offensive plays to just 14 for the Colonels while keeping the ball for more than 23 minutes. The Dukes rushed for 244 yards in the game and threw for 149, while limiting EKU to just 119 yards on the ground, more than 80 yards below its season rushing average. Madison also didn't give the ball up on a turnover in the game to a team that came in as a plus-16 in the turnover column for the year.

Eastern Kentucky had the first threat of the game after a long punt return by Justin Bell put the Colonels in business at the JMU 16, with junior Jakarie Jackson making the touchdown-saving tackle. However on the second play from the Dukes 13, Pryor was intercepted by cornerback Leavander Jones in the end zone to end the threat.

JMU dominated the possession in the first quarter and eventually made it count early in the second after the interception, converting several third downs on the arm of redshirt-junior quarterback Justin Thorpe. Redshirt-sophomore running back Jordan Anderson capped off the 14-play, 80-yard drive by plunging in from one yard out for the first points of the game. Starke hit the scoreboard with his made point after attempt and the Dukes led 7-0 with 13:55 to go in the first half.

Going with the strong wind, EKU got on the board in the second quarter, utilizing two big passes to get down to the JMU 1. On second down, running back H.B. Banjoman scored over the left side of the line for the touchdown. Kicker Luke Pray hit the point after attempt and the game was knotted at 7 with 7:41 remaining in the second.

The Colonels had the last shot in the first half, as Pray came on for a 48-yard field goal attempt from the right hash mark with a stiff wind at his back. The line shot split the uprights as time expired and host EKU went into the halftime break with a 10-7 advantage.

JMU opened with the ball to start the second half and moved into the red zone. However, the drive stalled at the EKU 19. From there, Starke appeared to hit a 36-yard field goal but the attempt was ruled wide right by the officials and the host Colonels held on to the 10-7 lead.

On the ensuing drive, Eastern Kentucky got back on the scoreboard as running back Matt Denham busted off a 66-yard run to get to the JMU 1. From there, Banjoman took it in over the right end and extended the lead to 17-7 for the Colonels with 5:55 to go in the third.

Madison battled back and drove down the field again, getting down to the EKU 4. However, the Dukes had to settle for a field goal attempt, with this one good by Starke from 21 yards out to trim the lead to 17-10 with 27 seconds left in the third.

The Dukes put together a drive on their following possession after stop-ping EKU on a 3rd-and-1. Getting the ball its own 24, JMU put together an 8-play, 76-yard drive, keyed by a 25-yard third-down conversion from Thorpe to senior wide receiver Kerby Long. After moving it to the EKU 40, Anderson took it on the final two carries, going 16 yards on the first and 24 yards into the end zone on the second, busting a pair of tackles. The point after was good, tying the game at 17 with just over 10 minutes remaining in the contest.

JMU was led by Thorpe, who gained a career-high 93 yards on 28 carries while he was also 9-for-16 for 149 yards through the air. Scott and Anderson both chipped in solid games on the running attack, with Scott going for 75 yards on 24 carries and Anderson recording 15 carries for 71 yards and the two scores. Three players reeled in two receptions each, led by Renard Robinson's 50 yards.

Denham led all rushers with 17 carries for 125 yards, but was limited to just 59 yards on 16 of those carries. Proyor finished 10-for-15 for 94 yards and one interception, with Matt Lengel is top target with three catches for 27 yards.

XX2011 GAME #13In its first game indoors since 1987, No. 17 James Madison was

unable to put together consistent running game and lost 26-14 at No. 4 and No. 2 national seed and eventual national champion North Dakota State in the second round of the NCAA Division I Football Championship, Dec. 3.

For the first time since the season opener at North Carolina, the Dukes did not reach the 100-yard rushing mark as a team, finishing the game with 32 carries for 67 yards. NDSU also outgained the Dukes 329-301, rushing for 219 yards in the game.

After a scoreless first quarter with only a small threat by Madison on the opening drive, NDSU got on the scoreboard first on its first drive of the second period. After getting it at their own 20, the Bison went down the field, mixing the pass and run effectively. Running back Sam Ojuri took it the final yard on the 10-play march that consumed 5:38 of the clock. Ryan Jastram put through the point after attempt and the hosts led 7-0 with just over nine minutes to play in the opening half.

Late in the half, the Dukes got things going themselves, moving the ball down the field 80 yards in 10 plays over 4:27. Redshirt-junior quarterback Justin Thorpe hit redshirt-freshman wide receiver DeAndre’ Smith with a fade route to the left corner of the end zone that he wrestled away from the NDSU defender for the touchdown. Redshirt-sophomore kicker Cameron Starke put through the extra point and the game was tied at seven with 22 seconds left in the half.

JMU’s ensuing kickoff was mishit and sailed out of bounds and gave NDSU the ball at the Dukes 49. From there, the Bison went to the air to move quickly into field goal range. Jastram hit a career-long field goal from 53 yards out as time expired, and the home squad went into the locker room with a 10-7 advantage.

On its second drive of the third, NDSU started on its own 39-yard line. Using a strong ground attack, the Bison moved it to the end zone on 10 plays over 5:50. Ojuri found the end zone for the second time on the day on a 6-yard touchdown run. The extra point

attempt was blocked, leaving the margin at 16-7 with 5:13 to go in the third quarter.

After JMU was unable to convert a fourth-down attempt at the Bison’ 40, NDSU got the ball back late in the fourth quarter and worked to eat up some clock. Eventually, the Dukes’ defense held and forced a field goal attempt. Jastram hit his second of the day, this time from 44 yards, and the Bison led 19-7 with 9:31 to play in the game.

JMU got the ball back and used the aerial game to get on the board. Thorpe started it off with a 25-yard pass to redshirt-freshman wide receiver Daniel Brown to get the ball at the Bison 49. Then two plays later, redshirt-senior Kerby Long took the handoff in the wildcat formation, pulled up and threw a 35-yard strike to a wide open Thorpe for the touchdown to trim the margin to 19-14 with 7:26 left in the game.

NDSU got the ball back on its 40 after another kickoff out of bounds by the Dukes. The next play, D.J. McNorton went around the right side, broke a tackle and went in from 60 yards out for the score to put the margin back at 12, 26-14, with just over seven minutes remaining.

Redshirt-sophomore Dae’Quan Scott was the top rusher for JMU, carrying it 17 times for 63 yards, while Thorpe was 21-for-38-for 182 yards, one touchdown and one interception. Redshirt-freshman An-dre Coble had a career-high six catches for 34 yards. Redshirt-senior linebacker Vidal Nelson led JMU with 12 tackles while redshirt-sophomore linebacker chipped in 11 stops and a pass breakup.

North Dakota State was paced by McNorton with 19 carries for 154 yards and a score, with quarterback Brock Jensen going 11-for-18 for 110 yards through the air. Wide receiver Warren Holloway was his top target, connecting with him on seven receptions for 78 yards.

JMU TRADITIONJMU Football -- An Excellent Tradition

JMU winning the NCAA Division I-AA national title in 2004 is the high point in team history and dem-onstrates the remarkable growth the program has enjoyed since its inception in 1972. Eight years later, the JMU program has continued to build on that success, adding four more playoff bids and compiling an overall record of 69 -30 since the beginning of the 2004 season.

Now under their fifth head coach, the Dukes have gone from a non-scholarship team recruited through registration lines to a program that has reached the top of the NCAA Championship Subdivision, from playing at a local high school to competing at on-campus Bridgeforth Stadium/Zane Showker Field with an adjoining state-of-the-art support facility, from playing ju-nior varsity and military school teams to competing in the nation’s top FCS league, the Colonial Athletic Association.

JMU has played in the NCAA playoffs nine times since 1990 and 10 times overall, begin-ning in 1987. Several former Dukes have had prominent careers in the National Football League.

Another significant change in the JMU program currently was recently completed – a $62 million expansion and renovation that in-creased Bridgeforth Stadium’s seating capacity to almost 25,000 and added numerous crowd-friendly amenities to the stadium complex for the 2011 season.

Rapid DevelopmentFootball began at JMU in 1972, and in 1975

the Dukes were 9-0-1. They were ranked atop the Division III poll in 1976, by 1979 gave scholarships and in 1980 began competing in Division I-AA. After facing few varsity teams for two years, JMU had games with Division

I-A foes Virginia and Virginia Tech in 1979 and 1980. Under Coach Challace McMillin, the Dukes in 1982 beat Virginia on its home field in what always will be one of the more-memora-ble games in team history.

JMU continued climbing in Division I-AA and reached the NCAA playoffs in 1987 during a 9-3 year under Coach Joe Purzycki. Coach Rip Scherer led the Dukes to the playoffs in 1991 and 1994, and Coach Alex Wood and Coach Mickey Matthews led them to post-season play in 1995 and 1999. All three were in their first years as head coaches during their first playoff appearances.

Matthews’ 2004 national championship team made history by becoming the first Division I-AA team to win three road playoff games in a season, and his teams were back in post-season play in 2006, 2007, and 2008. The 2008 team was top ranked nationally from late September through the end of the regular sea-son, was the No. 1 seed for the NCAA playoffs, and compiled an 8-0 record while winning the Colonial Athletic Association championship. The Dukes reached the 2008 national semifi-nals, hosted three playoff games and had a 12-game winning streak.

While ranked as the co-No. 1 team in the nation in 1976, JMU played in the first Division III game televised by a major network (at Hampden-Sydney). From early in 1975 until early in 1976 JMU put together a 12-game win-ning streak and an unbeaten run of 13 games.

Long List of HerosThe names of professional standouts Scott

Norwood, Gary Clark and Charles Haley are most often mentioned in discussions of JMU football history, but the program’s first 37 years have produced numerous standouts.

Quarterback Les Branich and offensive line-man Jeff Adams were early cornerstones and the only players to letter during each of the program’s first four years. Defensive line-

man Woody Bergeria and linebacker Dewey Windham received early All-America honors, and tailbacks Ron Stith and Bernard Slayton compiled remarkably similar statistics dur-ing standout careers from 1973-76. Both are members of JMU’s Athletic Hall of Fame, as are Bergeria and Branich.

Bergeria and Windham were leaders on the 1975 team that allowed only 75 points, gave up more than seven points in only three of 10 games and shut out three foes. While sharing tailback duties, Stith ran for 2,308 career yards and Slayton for 2,161, and they still are among JMU’s career rushing yards leaders. They combined to run for 44 career touchdowns.

Linebacker Dale Caparaso had three of the top season-tackle totals in team history from 1976-79, and quarterback John Bowers threw for 1,169 yards and four touchdowns and ran for four scores to lead the Dukes to an 8-2 record and a No. 9 national ranking in 1978, their final Division III year. Offensive guard Rick Booth was a 1978 All-America.

Transition PeriodThe move to a scholarship program was

challenging, but the period produced some of JMU’s top performers. Norwood enrolled in 1978 and became one of Division I-AA’s top placekickers; Clark arrived in 1980 and gave JMU its best receiver-kick returner combina-tion; and Haley and Warren Marshall, the team’s career rushing leader, arrived in 1982. All four are in JMU’s Athletic Hall of Fame. Marshall, with 4,168 career rushing yards, completed his career as the top rusher in Virginia college history, and he had a team career-record 20 100-yard rushing games.

Clyde Hoy led JMU in tackles in 1980 and 1981 and finished his career with 503 stops. Offensive linemen John Kent and John Blackwell were All-Americans in 1982 and 1983, respectively, and Haley in 1985 was JMU’s first Associated Press first-team I-AA

JMU TRADITIONAll-America. In 1986 Haley, JMU’s career tack-les leader (506), became its first NFL draftee (San Francisco, fourth round), and he was the first player to be a member of five winning Super Bowl teams.

JMU’s 21-17 win at Virginia in 1982 came only three years after the Dukes lost 69-9 there and was the springboard to an 8-3 year,

JMU’s first winning Division I-AA season. Quarterback Jon Roddy came off the bench to rally the Dukes by Appalachian State in their second 1982 game (39-35 win) and combined with Clark on an 80-yard scoring pass the next week at Virginia. Mike Thurman returned an interception 53 yards for a score at Virginia.

Clark had punt returns of 87 and 89 yards for scores in JMU’s 1983 game at Virginia before the hosts rallied for a 21-14 win. Clark was the sixth player selected in the 1984 United States Football League draft, and after two USFL

seasons he joined the Washington Redskins and played for two Super Bowl winners.

Division I-AA Success

A defense that ranked in the top 20 in I-AA for six straight years under Purzycki and defensive coordinator Jim Pletcher, who remained at JMU through 1994, was the Dukes’ trademark in the late 1980s and a key ingredient in the team’s 9-3 playoff season in 1987. JMU allowed fewer than 300 yards per game in ev-ery season from 1985-90, including 1987 when it gave up 291.7 yards per game. Linebacker Marty Fitzgerald led the 1987 defense with 128 tackles, and the Dukes were ranked as high as third nationally.

Defenders Shawn Woodson, Steve Bates and Dan Kobosko were key performers in the late 1980s, and offensive guard Carlo Bianchini and punter John Druiett also received All-America honors. Safety Eupton Jackson was named to four All-America first teams in 1990, and of-fensive tackle D.R. Carlson was an All-America that season.

JMU won at Division I-A Navy in 1989 and 1990 before Scherer, a former offensive co-ordinator at Arizona and later the head coach at Memphis, led the Dukes to the playoffs in 1991. That 9-4 squad had JMU’s first playoff win -- 42-35 in double overtime at Delaware -- and set a then-team record by averaging 31.9 points behind quarterback Eriq Williams and tailback Kenny Sims.

The 1991 team lost its opener at Division I-A Virginia Tech but then in consecutive games beat nationally ranked opponents in 1990 play-off participant Central Florida 49-31, eventual Southern Conference winner Appalachian State 31-8 on the road, and 1990 playoff partici-pant William & Mary 29-28 on the road.

JMU won at defending Division I-AA cham-pion Youngstown State (52-49) in 1992 and

returned to the playoffs in 1994 and 1995 behind most valuable player Mike Cawley. The 1994 squad became JMU’s then-winningest team (10-3), had a playoff win and won the Lambert/Meadowlands Cup as the top Division I-AA squad in the East.

The 1995 team was 8-4, went to the playoffs and gave the Dukes the then-best back-to-back years

in team history. JMU completed 1995 having been ranked in 23 straight Division I-AA top-25 polls by The Sports Network (22 times in the top 20, 10 times in the top 10).

The Dukes in 1999 tied for the Atlantic 10 title, JMU’s first Division I-AA crown, and returned to post-season play. JMU met Division I-A national runner-up Virginia Tech in its opener and then won seven straight games behind Matthews, The Sports Network’s Division I-AA coach of the year. Matthews also was the Atlantic 10 coach of the year, and JMU’s Curtis Keaton and Chris Morant were the league’s offensive and defensive players of the year. The Atlantic 10 honors were JMU’s first, and Keaton was selected in the fourth round of the NFL draft by Cincinnati. The season was the first time one program received each of the league’s three major awards during the same year.

Continuing SuccessCawley (6,482 passing yards in three years)

erased many of Williams’ (5,356 career passing yards, team-record 7,678 yards of total offense) passing records while safety Chris Parrott, de-fensive tackle Tyrone Washington, cornerback Dwight Robinson, center David Bailey, place-kicker John Coursey, tight end Ed Perry, wide receiver David McLeod, safety Tony Booth, return specialist Delvin Joyce, Keaton, Morant, linebackers Derick Pack and Derrick Lloyd, of-

JMU TRADITIONfensive lineman Matt Magerko, free safety Tony LeZotte, safety Rodney McCarter, linebacker Kwynn Walton, offensive tackle Corey Davis, linebacker Akeem Jordan, defensive end Kevin Winston, quarterback Rodney Landers, center Scott Lemn, return specialist Scotty McGee, and free safety Marcus Haywood have re-ceived more-recent All-America honors.

Cawley threw for 42 touchdowns, and Williams in four years threw for 40 scores and ran for a team-career-record 32. Sims had consecutive 1,000-yard rushing seasons in 1991 and 1992 and had five straight 100-yard rushing games in 1991.

McLeod erased most of Clark’s JMU receiv-ing records and had 158 career catches for 2,899 yards and 21 touchdowns. Macey Brooks had a team-record 14 scoring catches

in 1996, and he was drafted by Dallas and Perry by Miami the next spring. Perry was a three-time first-team all-league choice.

Booth was first-team All-America in 1997 and 1998 and was drafted by Carolina. He had a JMU-record eight interceptions in 1997 to rank second nationally and had 122 tackles, the then-third most by a JMU defensive back and the most by any Duke since 1989.

Booth had a team-high 106 tackles in 1998 when JMU also got a standout year from Keaton. In his first JMU year, Keaton ran for 1,064 yards and became the first Duke since 1992 and only the then-third overall to run for 1,000 yards (Marshall had three 1,000-yard years and Sims two). In 1999 Keaton set JMU season records of 1,719 rushing yards, 20 rush-ing scores, 21 overall touchdowns, 126 points and 2,024 all-purpose yards. He played in the NFL with Cincinnati and New Orleans.

Joyce broke the team record for all-purpose yards in each of his first two years with the Dukes. In combined rushing, receiving and return efforts, Joyce had 1,563 yards in 1997 and 1,741 in 1998. Jay Jones set the previ-ous team-season all-purpose yards mark of 1,515 yards in 1996 when he also set a national Division I-AA mark by returning kickoffs for 268 yards in a 31-27 win at Richmond.

The Dukes in 1998 also got a team-season-record 82 receptions from Earnest Payton, who as a 2000 senior broke McLeod’s team career receptions record (185).

Joyce in 2000 became the first Division I-AA player to reach the 1,000-yard career mark in each of the categories of rush-ing (1,260), receiv-ing (1,009), kickoff returns (1,902) and punt returns (1,488). He also set JMU records for career all-purpose yards (5,659), punt return yards, kickoff return yards and combined kick return yards (3,390), and he established Divison I-AA career marks for punt re-turn and combined kick return yards. Joyce played with the NFL’s New York Giants.

Pack was the Atlantic 10’s regular-season tackles leader twice. He took part in more than 400 tackles as a Duke, was a three-time first-team All-A-10 choice, and signed with the St. Louis Rams.

Lloyd led the nation in unassisted tackles as a 2001 senior and won The Sports Network’s Buck Buchanan Award as I-AA’s top defensive player after finishing the year with 157 stops overall, 7.5 quar-terback sacks and five fumble recoveries.

LeZotte was the Atlantic 10’s co-rookie of the year in 2004 when he had a team-freshman-record 144 stops as the national champions’ tackles leader, and he was the league defensive player of the year in 2005 and 2007 and its first player to receive All-America honors for four seasons.

In 2006 Akeem Jordan was runner-up for the Buck Buchanan Award as the nation’s top defender and won College Sporting News national defender of the year award, and he became a starter with the Philadelphia Eagles in 2007.

JMU TRADITIONLanders had outstanding JMU seasons in 2007 and 2008,

setting team season records for total offense during both. He ran (3,477) and passed (3,288) for more than 3,000 career yards and in 2008 was runner-up for national player of the year honors, was the state Division I player of year and the offensive player of the year in the Colonial Athletic Association and Eastern College Athletic Conference. He threw a team-season record 21 touchdown passes and ran for 16 scores in 2008.

Defensive end Arthur Moats won JMU’s second Buchanan Award after leading the nation in tackles for loss and FCS down linemen in tackles during the 2009 season. He and cornerback/return specialist Scotty McGee were sixth-round NFL draft selections by Buffalo and Jacksonville.

Super Bowl SpotlightFormer JMU players have made 10 Super Bowl appear-

ances and have been members of the winning team seven times.

Haley played on Super Bowl winners with San Francisco (two) and Dallas (three). Clark played on two title teams with Washington, Norwood made two title game appearances with Buffalo and Dorian Brooks was most recently in the 2011 Super Bowl with Pittsburgh.

Conference AffiliationJMU was an independent during its early Division I-AA years

but joined the Yankee Conference in 1991 and began competing in the league in 1993.

The Yankee schools affiliated with the Atlantic 10 in 1997 and the CAA in 2007, and they long have comprised one of the nation’s top leagues. In 1998 member Massachusetts won the Division I-AA title, and Delaware in 2003 and JMU in 2004 gave the league con-secutive crowns. Richmond won the 2008 national championship and Villanova earned the 2009 national title. The league has gotten multiple playoff bids for 21 straight seasons, had four first-round winners in the 2004, 2008 and 2010 playoffs and sent a record five teams to the postseason in 2007 and in 2008.

Former JMU CoachesMcMillin, who coached JMU for its first 13 football seasons

(1972-84), remained affiliated with the university. He completed doctoral studies and was a JMU kinesiology faculty member until retirement. He has been inducted into JMU’s Athletic Hall of Fame and continues to work at JMU in a sports psychology role.

Purzycki (1985-90) has been a banking and business execu-tive in Wilmington, Del.; Scherer (1991-94) left JMU to become

the head coach at Memphis; and Wood (1995-98) left JMU to become the quarterbacks coach with the NFL’s Minnesota Vikings. Scherer has coached at Southern Mississippi and Kansas and has been on the staff of the Cleveland Browns, and Wood later was on the coaching staffs of the Cincinnati Bengals and Arizona Cardinals and recently was quarterbacks coach and passing game coordinator at Arkansas.

2004 NATIONAL TITLEDukes Make History with 2004 Title

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 progressed. 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 bal-ance, 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 powerful 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 touchdown 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 disap-pointed 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 win-ning 48-34 at William & Mary in a nationally 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 overall 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 midseason 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 spot-light for the final two playoff games after Hines was hurt at William & Mary.

Quarterback Justin Rascati threw for 2,045 yards and 14

touchdowns, ran for 10 scores, and was intercepted only five times in 283 passes.

Team defensive MVP Trey Townsend and Walton as lineback-ers, LeZotte, and McCarter led the defense. LeZotte set a team freshman record with 144 tackles, Townsend had 102 tackles and five interceptions, 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.

2004 PLAYOFFS

JMU 31, Montana 21Dec. 17, 2004 ~ Chattanooga, Tenn.

JMU won the national title with a stingy defense and a strong run-ning game. The Dukes allowed a first-quarter TD for the only time in 2004 and trailed twice before dominating the final minutes.

JMU went up to stay 24-21 on a one-yard Maurice Fenner run at 3:25 of the third quarter, added Justin Rascati’s six-yard run for a score with 8:00 left, and ran the final 6:14 off the clock. The Dukes used 14 straight rushing plays to kill the clock at the end of the game and nine straight runs dur-ing the 72-yard drive that put them up to stay. JMU ran for 314 yards, 257 during the last half.

In addition to the score that put JMU up to stay, Fenner scored on a one-yard run late in the first period for a 10-7 JMU edge. Rascati ran 11 yards for a score on JMU’s first third-quarter series.

JMU’s effort off set a strong outing by Montana’s Craig Ochs, who threw for 371 yards and three scores. However, the Grizzlies had only 44 rushing yards.

UM went 71 yards in 11 plays to score on the first series, and JMU didn’t have a first down and but two yards during the first period. The Dukes got to within 7-3 with 8:54 left in the half on a 28-yard David Rabil field goal to cap a 14-play, 74-yard drive.

Kicker Cameron Starke drilled a 35-yard field goal into a strong wind as time expired to lift James Madison to a 20-17 win at Eastern Kentucky in the opening round.

Late in the fourth quarter, JMU halted EKU’s drive as Stephon Robertson flushed quarterback T.J. Pryor from the pocket and forced him into linebacker Pat Williams for a sack at the EKU 18. Jordan Berry’s 46-yard punt was muffed but recovered by JMU to give them possession on its own 36. From there, the Dukes got a first down and moved to the EKU 43 for a 4th-and-2 with 1:34 left in regula-tion. The Colonels called a time out as JMU was setting up to punt. The Dukes reconsidered, sending the offense out for the play and converting it as Dae’Quan Scott got four yards to keep the drive alive. Madison earned another first down and got the ball down to the EKU 19 with one second re-maining. Two time outs were called by the hosts to try and ice the JMU kicker, but Starke stepped up and drilled his second game-winning field goal of the season down the middle to propel the Dukes to the second round.

JMU controlled the flow of the game, holding the ball for a staggering 40:30 of the contest while outgaining the Colonels 393-213. In the second half alone, JMU has 52 offensive plays to just 14 for the Colonels while keeping the ball for more than 23 minutes. The Dukes rushed for 244 yards in the game and threw for 149, while limiting EKU to just 119 yards on the ground, more than 80 yards below its season rushing average. Madison also didn’t give the ball up on a turnover in the game to a team that came in as a plus-16 in the turnover column for the year.

Trailing 17-10 and heading into a stiff wind, the Dukes put together a drive on their following pos-session after stopping EKU on a 3rd-and-1. Getting the ball its own 24, JMU put together an 8-play, 76-yard drive, keyed by a 25-yard third-down conversion from Justin Thorpe to Kerby Long. After moving it to the EKU 40, Jordan Anderson took it on the final two carries, going 16 yards on the first and 24 yards into the end zone on the second, busting a pair of tackles. The point after was good, tying the game at 17 with just over 10 minutes remaining in the contest.

JMU was led by Thorpe, who gained a career-high 93 yards on 28 carries while he was also 9-for-16 for 149 yards through the air. Scott and Anderson both chipped in solid games on the running attack, with Scott going for 75 yards on 24 carries and Anderson recording 15 carries for 71 yards and the two scores. Three players reeled in two receptions each, led by Renard Robinson’s 50 yards.JMU 0 7 3 10 -- 20 EKU 0 10 7 0 -- 17

North Dakota State 26, JMU 14Dec. 3, 2011 – Fargo, N.D.

In its first game indoors since 1987, No. 17 James Madison was unable to put together consistent running game and lost 26-14 at No. 4 and No. 2 national seed and eventual national champion North Dakota State in the second round of the NCAA Division I Football Championship.

For the first time since the season opener at North Carolina, the Dukes did not reach the 100-yard rushing mark as a team, finishing the game with 32 carries for 67 yards. NDSU also outgained the Dukes 329-301, rushing for 219 yards in the game.

NDSU marched 80 yards for the first score of the game in the second quarter as running back Sam Ojuri took it the final yard on the 10-play march that consumed 5:38 of the clock. Ryan Jastram put through the point after attempt and the hosts led 7-0 with just over nine minutes to play.

Late in the half, the Dukes got things going as Justin Thorpe hit receiver DeAndre’ Smith with a fade route to the left corner of the end zone that he wrestled away from the NDSU defender for the touchdown. Kicker Cameron Starke put through the extra point and the game was tied at seven with 22 seconds left in the half.

JMU’s ensuing kickoff was mishit and sailed out of bounds and gave NDSU the ball at the Dukes 49. From there, the Bison moved quickly into field goal range and Jastram hit a career-long field goal from 53 yards out as time expired, and the home squad went into the locker room leading 10-7.

On its second drive of the third, the Bison moved it to the end zone as Ojuri found the end zone for the second time on the day on a 6-yard touchdown run. The extra point attempt was blocked, leaving the margin at 16-7 with 5:13 to go in the third quarter.

After JMU was unable to convert a fourth-down attempt at the Bison’ 40, NDSU got the ball back late in the fourth quarter and worked to eat up some clock. Eventually, Jastram hit his second of the day, this time from 44 yards, and the Bison led 19-7 with 9:31 to play in the game.

JMU used the aerial game to trim the lead, as Thorpe started it off with a 25-yard pass to redshirt-wide receiver Daniel Brown to get the ball at the Bison 49. Then two plays later, Kerby Long took the handoff in the wildcat formation, pulled up and threw a 35-yard strike to a wide open Thorpe for the touchdown to trim the margin to 19-14 with 7:26 left in the game.

NDSU got the ball back on its 40 after another kickoff out of bounds by the Dukes. The next play, D.J. McNorton went around the right side, broke a tackle and went in from 60 yards out for the score to put the margin back at 12, 26-14, with just over seven minutes remaining.

Dae’Quan Scott was the top rusher for JMU, carrying it 17 times for 63 yards, while Thorpe was 21-for-38-for 182 yards, one touchdown and one interception. Andre Coble had a career-high six catches for 34 yards. Vidal Nelson led JMU with 12 tackles while Stephon Robertson chipped in 11 stops and a pass breakup.JMU 0 7 0 7 -- 14 NDSU 0 10 6 10 -- 26
