The Warriors concluded cross-over play with a 2-1 record as the GLIAC North Division went 18-6 against the South Division. The final seven weeks of the regular season will feature North vs. North, and South vs. South league contests.
MALONE RECAP The 21st-ranked Warriors scored touchdowns on four of their five first-half possessions in recording a 38-14 triumph at Malone University Saturday evening. It only took the Warriors 1:47 to strike first as Toney Davis rumbled in from seven yards on the fourth play of a 70-yard touchdown drive. The big play was a 50-yard pass completion from Mickey Mohner to Steve Conway on a second-and-one. The Pioneers went three-and-out on their first series with WSU beginning its second drive at its own 40. Wayne State drove 60 yards in 6:03 with Jessie Johnson scoring on a one-yard plunge on the 12th play of the drive. Trent Brodbeck had a 13-yard reception on the play preceeding the TD run. Malone drove into Warrior territory on the ensuing drive, but Steve O’Shell intercepted a third-down pass making a sliding pick for his first career interception, and WSU’s first of the season. Wayne State was unable to convert a fourth-down play on the next possession, and the Pioneers went 60 yards in seven plays to cut the Warrior lead to 14-7. WSU’s Stefan Terleckyj connected on a 47-yard field goal attempt but Malone was offsides on the play giving the Warriors a first down. Four plays later James Jackson hauled in a 16-yard scoring toss from Mohner on a third-and-11. An 11-yard punt return by Jackson gave WSU the ball at Malone’s 38. On the third play, Jackson caught a pass in the back of the end zone on third-and-10 for a 38-yard scoring play giving the Warriors 14 points in 69 seconds. Malone went three-and-out to start the second half. Wayne State put together a 10-play drive which used 4:44 on the clock with Davis scoring on a one-yard run around the right end. The next three drives ended in punts, before Terleckyj connected on a 41-yard field goal pushing WSU’s lead to 38-7. Malone scored a late touchdown to complete the scoring. Wayne State rushed for 170 yards with Davis leading the way as he gained 83 yards on 17 carries. Jay Hayes contributed 34 yards on seven attempts. Malik Felton led Malone with 53 yards on 12 rushes. Mohner completed 10-of-18 passes for 173 yards and two touchdowns, both going to Jackson. Brodbeck had a team-high three receptions. Will Szpor completed 9-of-17 passes for the Pioneers for 94 yards. Nick Thomas led the Warrior defense with seven tackles as WSU recorded 10 tackles for loss including Dalton Binkowski with two. WSU had a 343-238 advantage in total offense, and converted 7-of-13 third down plays, while Malone was successful on 8-of-15 third down attempts. Sean Baligian and WSU Athletics Hall of Famer Joe Gough will call the action of Warrior football every Saturday, while Lisa Seymour will serve as the sideline reporter live on WTDK 1400 AM.

COACH TO CURE MD CELEBRATES FIFTH SEASON For the fifth year in a row, college football coaches nationwide will join together in support of the Coach To Cure MD program, which will be held during games this weekend. The rapidly growing annual effort has raised more than a million dollars to battle Duchenne muscular dystrophy. The WSU coaches will be participating this weekend by wearing a Coach To Cure MD logo patch (supplied by the American Football Coaches Association) on the sidelines. College football fans will be asked to donate to research projects supported by Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy (PPMD), the largest nonprofit organization in the U.S. focused entirely on Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Football fans can donate to Duchenne muscular dystrophy research by either going online to www.CoachtoCureMD.org or by texting the word CURE to 90999 (a $5 donation will automatically be added to your next phone bill). Last year, more than 10,000 college coaches at 505 different institutions participated in Coach To Cure MD events. Both those figures are well higher than in any of the program’s first three years (2008-10). The four-year fundraising total is just over $1 million.

FOOTBALL STAFF / STARTS/POTW Season & Career WSU Starts Player
HEAD COACH PAUL WINTERS Paul Winters is in his ninth season as the Wayne State University head football coach after guiding the winningest team in school history last year. He was honored for his efforts with the 2011 AFCA Division II National Coach of the Year award. His 2011 squad set the school record for overall wins (12), road wins (8), while winning four consecutive road playoff games to reach the national title contest. In addition, senior left tackle Joe Long was the recipient of the Gene Upshaw Award as the top lineman (both offensive and defensive) in Division II. Winters also became WSU’s all-time football wins leader when the Warriors recorded a double-overtime victory at Hillsdale on Oct. 22, 2011. The 2011 senior class compiled a 35-14 mark surpassing the previous wins mark of 30 by the 1978 class. In addition, 30 members of the 2011 squad received conference all-academic accolades.

NFL ALUMNI UPDATE Former WSU running back and 2009 Harlon Hill recipient Joique Bell made the Detroit Lions 53-man opening day roster following the final cuts on August 31. In Detroit’s week one win over St. Louis, he had a one-yard rushing touchdown, the first ever rushing touchdown in the NFL by a former WSU player. The last WSU player to score a TD in an NFL regular-season game was Dick Byas, who had a 30-yard fumble return vs. Seattle for the Atlanta Falcons on Oct. 29, 1979. At San Francisco in week two, Bell had two receptions for 59 yards and also rushed for 14 yards. Joique had five carries for 23 yards at Tennessee, and also grabbed four passes for 44 yards last Sunday. Former Warrior linebacker Tristan Black (2005-08) is in his fourth professional season in the CFL, and third with his hometown Toronto Argonauts. He has 14 special teams tackles, while also recording two tackles as a back-up middle linebacker. COACHING LEADERS BY SEASONS: Name Joseph G. Gembis David Holmes Paul Winters Vernon K.

GAME RECAP: Wayne State began its 2012 campaign with a 7-0 setback at Ashland University in the season opener for the fifth-ranked Warriors. AU took the opening kickoff across midfield before the WSU defense generated a three-yard tackle for loss on the first play - by Ed Viverette - then Serxho Guraleci grabbed the AU fullback for no gain on second down. A third down pass was incomplete forcing an Eagle punt which was downed at the Wayne State three yard line. After Toney Davis gained six yards on two carries, a third down pass by Mickey Mohner was intercepted and returned to the WSU seven yard line. On third-and-goal from the four, AU signal caller Taylor Housewright completed a swing pass to tailback Jordan McCune who found the end zone. Greg Gallaway’s PAT made it 7-0 for Ashland. Mohner was intercepted on the ensuing drive, but Gallaway’s 34-yard field goal attempt early in the second quarter was wide right. WSU punted on its next three possessions, while AU did the same on its two offensive series. With just over 90 seconds remaining in the first half, Zak Bielecki forced a fumble following a completed pass with Moe Davenport recovering for Wayne State. A 44-yard field goal attempt on the final play before intermission was wide left by WSU’s Stefan Terleckyj. The Warriors punted on their first drive of the third quarter, then stopped a fourth-down Ashland rush prior to an exchange of punts by each squad. Terleckyj’s 54-yard boot was downed at the AU one yard line. Following an AU punt, Wayne State drove 32 yards but Terleckyj’s field goal attempt hit the left upright. The Eagles answered with a 46-yard drive but Nores Fradi made a fourth-down tackle of a completed pass before the first down marker. WSU responded with a 12-play, 61-yard drive but Mohner’s fourth-down pass was incomplete in the end zone. Dominique Maybanks had two catches for first down on the drive, while Davis garnered an additional two first downs on runs. Ashland had a 16-play drive, but the Warrior defense again held on fourth down forcing an incompletion. Wayne State was unable to pick up a first down on either of its two remaining offensive series. Viverette led the Wayne State defense with 12 tackles plus had three quarterback hurries. Fradi totaled 10 tackles including WSU’s lone sack. Nick Thomas, playing his first game since October 2010, had eight tackles. Gerren DuHart contributed nine tackles and two pass break-ups. Ashland held a 278-162 edge in total offense but both squads struggled on third down (AU 4-15, WSU 3-13).

GAME RECAP: Wayne State scored touchdowns on four of its five first-half possessions in recording a 38-14 triumph at Malone University. It only took the Warriors 1:47 to strike first as Toney Davis rumbled in from seven yards out on the fourth play of a 70-yard touchdown drive. The big play was a 50yard pass completion from Mickey Mohner to Steve Conway on a second-and-one. The Pioneers went three-and-out on their first series with WSU beginning its second drive at its own 40. Wayne State drove 60 yards in 6:03 with Jessie Johnson scoring on a one-yard plunge on the 12th play of the drive. Trent Brodbeck had a 13-yard reception on the play preceeding the TD run. Malone drove into Warrior territory on the ensuing drive, but Steve O’Shell intercepted a third-down pass making a sliding pick for his first career interception, and WSU’s first of the season. Wayne State was unable to convert a fourth-down play on the next possession, and the Pioneers went 60 yards in seven plays to cut the Warrior lead to 14-7. Stefan Terleckyj connected on a 47-yard field goal attempt but Malone was offsides on the play giving the Warriors a first down. Four plays later James Jackson hauled in a 16-yard scoring toss from Mohner on a third-and-11. An 11-yard punt return by Jackson gave WSU the ball at Malone’s 38. On the third play, Jackson caught a pass in the back of the end zone on third-and-10 for a 38-yard scoring play. Malone went three-and-out to start the second half. Wayne State put together a 10-play drive which used 4:44 on the clock with Davis scoring on a one-yard run around the right end. The next three drives ended in punts, before Terleckyj connected on a 41-yard field goal pushing WSU’s lead to 38-7. Nick Thomas led the Warrior defense with seven tackles, including one-and-a-half for loss. Ed Viverette totaled six tackles (3-3) with O’Shell adding five stops including one for loss along with his interception. Dalton Binkowski led WSU with two tackles for loss. Mike Laamanen, in his first career start, also had five tackles (2-3). Jackson finished with 91 all-purpose yards (54 receiving, 26 kickoff return and 11 punt return) to finish one yard behind Davis for the team lead. The kickoff coverage team held MU to nine yards per return.
GAME RECAP: Wayne State rallied from an 18-point fourth quarter deficit for a dramatic 35-31 comeback win over Lake Erie College at Adams Field. It was WSU’s largest comeback victory since trailing 21-3 early in the third quarter against Ferris State on Sept. 28, 2002, in Big Rapids. The Warriors rattled off 33 consecutive second-half points for a 36-21 win against the Bulldogs. LEC’s Jordan Forbes blocked on punt on the game’s opening drive setting up a 15-yard scoring drive. Wayne State knotted the score with a four-play, 75yard drive culminating in one-yard Toney Davis touchdown run. Lake Erie regained the lead on a 40-yard Sam Marcotte field goal completing a 55-yard scoring drive. The next five drives of the game all ended in punts. The Storm increased their lead to 17-7 on a four-yard keeper by Patrick Nicely. Following Wayne State’s fifth punt of the first half, LEC went 86 yards in 10 plays with Anthony Bilal scoring late in the second stanza. On Lake Erie’s first possession of the second half, Nicely was sacked on third down by Nick Thomas with Zach Houghton recovering. Stefan Terleckyj connected on back-to-back field goal attempts making it a 24-13 contest. After the Storm drove 45 yards, Marcotte’s 43-yard field goal attempt was blocked by Houghton. Lake Erie capitalized on a WSU turnover with an 18-yard touchdown drive increasing its lead to 31-13. On Wayne State’s next possession, Mohner engineered a seven-play, 76-yard touchdown drive completing a 20-yard swing pass to Davis on third-and-11 for the score. During LEC’s ensuing drive, Nicely was sacked on third down by Ed Viverette with Houghton recovering his second fumble of the game. On WSU’s first play, Davis rambled 10 yards for a touchdown, which came with 8:43 remaining. Terleckyj’s PAT cut the Warrior deficit to three at 31-28. After a LEC punt, Wayne State had the ball at its seven-yard line with 4:02 remaining, when Mohner drove the Warriors 93 yards in nine plays picking up six first downs along the way for the game-winning touchdown.
