Partridge holds a 115-62 overall record and has led the Griffons to nine post-season appearances (2000, 2003, 2005, 2006 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011) . Under Partridge, the Griffons were co-champions of the MIAA in 2003. In 2011, the Griffons closed the regular season winning seven straight games which propelled them into the NCAA Division II Playoffs for the second consecutive season and third time in school history. Missouri Western had one player selected as AFCA all-American (Greg Zuerlein). The Griffons had five players named first team all-MIAA (Zuerlein, Michael Hill, Macon Allan, David Bass and Jack Long).

Bass and Zuerlein were named all-American’s by Daktronics, “Little” AP, Beyond Sports College Network, and D2Football.com. Michael Hill and Scott Groner were honorable mention all-America selections by Beyond Sports College Network. The Griffons also won a school record nine games for the sixth time in the past nine years. Missouri Western ended the 2011 season ranked 18th in both the AFCA and D2Football.com final polls. Griffon kicker Zuerlein was the first pick in the sixth round by the St. Louis Rams. In 2010, the Griffons started the season 4-0, earning the highest ranking in school history of 8th in both the American Football Coaches Association Poll and D2Football.com poll. The Griffons earned their second NCAA Division II Playoff appearance and had two players named to the all-MIAA first Team (Sean Whiters - LB and Jack Long - FS). The Griffons ended the season ranked 21st in the D2Football.com poll while Whiters was named to the D2Football.com honorable mention all-America team. In 2009 the Griffons got off to the best start in school history, winning its first five games, climbing all the way to 12th in the nation. Missouri Western finished the season going 4-3 which included a 34-21 victory over the Augustana College Vikings in the 44th Mineral Water Bowl. Two players named all-MIAA first team (Nathan Martin - OL and Cedric Houston - WR). The Griffons ended the season ranked 22nd in the D2football.com poll while Houston was named to the D2Football.com Honorable Mention All- America Team. Martin played in the Valero Cactus Bowl in Kingsville, Texas, and was named to the Don Hansen’s Football Gazette Honorable Mention all-America squad. Former OL Roger Allen became the second Griffon to compete in an NFL game, as he started the last regular season game for the St. Louis Rams. During the 2008 campaign the Griffons won their last four regular season games, propelling them to the Mineral Water Bowl for the second straight season. The ’08 season also brought the Griffon program and Coach Partridge their first NFL player that made an appearance in a regular season game. Former tight end Gijon Robinson started 14 games for the Indianapolis Colts. In 2007, the Griffons won nine games and went to the Mineral Water Bowl where they defeated Wayne State College (Neb.), 20-13. Missouri Western has won seven or more games in eight of Partridge’s 11 seasons at the helm. In 2006 the Griffons won nine games, going 9-3, and were ranked as high as #11 in the national polls and made their first ever NCAA playoff appearance. Partridge, the sixth head football coach in Missouri Western history, has built a program geared toward seeing his players succeed on the field and in the classroom, while preparing them for the future with a steady diet of hard work and support. He sports a reputation as a “players’ coach,” and there is ample evidence to prove that description accurate. During the school year, hardly a day goes by without one of his student-athletes stopping by his office. He regularly meets with a committee of players and with seniors to discuss team issues – from academic requirements to scheduling to disciplinary measures. Partridge’s tenure has seen players who have cluttered the Missouri Western record book. Kasey Waterman passed for an MWSU and MIAA record 10,025 yards and 98 touchdowns in four seasons. Jerris Evans set school records for reception yards in a career with 2,928 and career receptions with 200. Defensively, Partridge coached Missouri Western’s first consensus all-America selection, Pierre Thomas, from 2000-2003. Thomas set the MWSU, MIAA and tied the NCAA Division II single season mark for interceptions with 14 in 2003. That season, Thomas intercepted three passes in one game three separate times. Team marks set under Partridge include points scored in a season

(428 – 2007), TD passes in a season (32 – 2000), and interceptions in a season (29 – 2003). Kicker Greg Zuerlein set records for longest field goal (58-2011) and consecutive field goals made (17-2011).

Partridge served as a graduate assistant coach at both the University of Notre Dame and the University of Missouri and was a member of the Notre Dame coaching staff when the Fighting Irish won the 1988 national title by winning the Fiesta Bowl under Head Coach Lou Holtz.

While at Missouri, Partridge earned a master’s degree in sports administration.

Partridge was the defensive coordinator at Missouri Western for five seasons under head coach Stan McGarvey. Partridge’s Griffon defense set 13 school records including fewest points allowed (162 – 1993) and fewest total yards allowed in a game (29 vs. Friends – 1993), while helping the Griffons to 27 wins during that span.

Partridge spent the 1996 season as the defensive secondary coach at Murray State (Ky.) University. While at Murray State, he was part of a team that won the title while qualifying for the NCAA Division I-AA playoffs. Partridge was also the defensive coordinator at Austin Peay University in Tennessee.

A native of Grandview, Mo., Partridge is the son of Linda and Gerald Partridge, who coached at Ruskin (Mo.) High School for 29 years. Partridge and his wife, Pam, reside in St. Joseph and have two children, Travis and Lindsey. Partridge’s Record Versus Opponents Northwest Mo.
