In 1889, Millersville started playing intercollegiate athletics, beginning a tradition of excellence and pride that is entering its 121st year. Since the first baseball team took the field, the athletics department has grown into 22 teams competing at the NCAA Division I and II levels. Few universities can match the longstanding success that Millersville’s athletics programs have enjoyed. Since joining the PSAC, the Marauders have compiled 42 team PSAC Championships in 13 different sports. The fan base and student-support of the Marauders is unrivaled among its peers. Packed venues are common, especially in Pucillo Gymnasium during basketball season, when the “Pucillo Posse”—a rowdy cheering section—helps the teams to victory. The students support all sports at Millersville. In 2008, the men’s soccer program ranked 12th in the nation in home attendance. The spirit was no more evident than in late November when nearly 1,000 fans attended the team’s NCAA Tournament contest despite the freezing temperatures. Another key part of the tradition is Millersville’s mascots, the Marauder, and Skully. The Marauder’s origin dates back to the 1930s. He received a partner at Homecoming in 2004 in Skully. Skully has become a favorite among patrons with his eye patch, an earring, size 13 boots and enthusiasm for Millersville sports. 4 Administration 2010 MILLERSVILLE UNIVERSITY • MEN’S SOCCER ATHLETIC ADMINISTRATION MILLERSVILLE ATHLETICS PEG KAUFFMAN Jefferson Hall (164 W.
