COACHING STAFF GLEN MASON

head coach • ninth season Led Gophers to five bowls in last six years

Glen Mason has a national reputation for transforming struggling pro- grams into winning organizations. Now entering his ninth year as Minnesota’s head coach and his 20th as a Division I head coach, Mason has changed a struggling program that hadn’t posted a winning season since 1990 into one of the top programs in the Big Ten. Under Mason, the Gophers have won three consecutive bowl games and have made bowl appearances in five of the past six seasons, both of which are unprece- dented in Minnesota history. Mason is also second among current Big Ten coaches in career Division I victories with 110, trailing only Joe Paterno of Penn State. Mason earned his 100th career victory in 2003 with a 36- 10 win over Illinois. With his success at Kansas and Minnesota, Mason is one of only six active coaches to win at least 40 games at two different Division I schools and is one of only four active coaches to win at least two bowl games at two different Division I institutions. In 2004, Mason led the Gophers to their second 5-0 start in two sea- sons, which marked the first time since 1940-41 that the Gophers had accomplished that feat. Under Mason, the Gophers continued their great offensive tradition by finishing among the top 30 in the nation in rush offense (5th, 256.8), total offense (15th, 438.3 ypg) and scoring offense (29th, 30.1). In 2004, the Gophers also became the only school in the nation to both run and pass for at least 2,000 yards in each of the past six seasons. The Gophers aver- aged 6.3 yards per play and 438.3 yards per game in 2004, the second-highest averages in school history. Mason has built a new level of offensive consistency as the Gophers have currently recorded 27 consecu- tive games with at least 300 yards of total offense. Minnesota also joins Boise State as the only teams to finish in the top 35 nationally in total offense each of the past six seasons. With their victory in the Music City Bowl last season, the Gophers join Michigan, Ohio State, Purdue and Wisconsin as the only Big Ten teams to play in bowl games five of the past six seasons. Mason has won 43 games over the past six sea- sons, which is the most wins during a six-year span at Minnesota since 1903-08. In 2003, Mason led the Gophers to their first 10-win season since 1905 and their best confer- ence finish since 1999. Under his direction, Minnesota also won its second straight bowl game with a 31-30 victory over Oregon in the Sun Bowl. That victory marked the first time in school history that the Gophers had won back- to-back bowl games. Mason’s offensive unit was one of the most prolific in both Big Ten and school history in 2003. The Gophers set a Big Ten record for total offense (6,430) and finished with the fourth- highest rushing total (3,759) and sixth-highest point total (503) in Big Ten history. On top of those marks, the Gophers also set new school records in several other categories including: touchdowns 94

“Coach Mason has had an amazing impact on me both as a person and as a football player. He is like a father figure for me. He gives it to you straight and teaches you the right way to do things. He has the kind of qualities that you look for in a football coach, but he also cares deeply about his players as people.”

— TYRONE CARTER, DEFENSIVE BACK, PITTSBURGH STEELERS Jim Thorpe Award Winner, 1999 • Two-time All-American, 1998-99

“As a native of Minnesota, I have seen first-hand the amazing job that Coach Mason has done with the Golden Gopher Football program. He is an excellent coach and has taught me a lot about football, but more importantly he has taught me about life on and off the field. He turned the program around and made it into a winner. I know the future is very bright for the Golden Gophers.”

— BEN HAMILTON, GUARD, DENVER BRONCOS Two-time All-American, 1999-2000

"Coach Mason and the Minnesota football program made a huge difference for me as a student- athlete. I had a difficult experience at SMU as a freshman and Coach Mason gave me a chance to come to Minnesota, get my college career in order and contribute on the field. He believes in hard work and discipline and is just as interested in your academic success as your success in football. He, and the support staff that Minnesota Football provides, is one of the main reasons that I have my masters’ degree and I’m also getting a chance to play professional football.”

— JACK BREWER, SAFETY, NEW YORK GIANTS First Team All-Big Ten, 2001

Coming to Minnesota was like a home inside a home. It is a family-based environment that I loved being a part of. I will always be thankful for the opportunity to come here. I was not a highly- recruited player, but Coach Mason and his staff gave me an opportunity. That is something that I will always appreciate and never forget.

— MARION BARBER III, RUNNING BACK, DALLAS COWBOYS First Team All-Big Ten, 2003

“Coach Mason and Minnesota Football have a long history of recruiting players from Detroit. That was a big influence on my decision to attend Minnesota. It was close enough to home that my family could see me play and provided a great academic opportunity as well. Coach Mason believes strongly in the importance of education and that was a great fit for me and my family. I worked hard and had the support necessary to graduate in three and a half years. That gave me the opportunity to, not only have my degree, but also focus on preparation for my professional career. Not many programs can give you all of that.”

Minnesota led the Big Ten and finished among the NCAA leaders in rushing offense (3rd, 289.2 ypg), total offense (4th, 494.6 ypg) and scoring offense (7th, 38.7 ppg) last season. Browning was recognized for his work and the success of the Gophers’ offense in 2003 as he was selected as a finalist for the Frank Broyles Award, given annually to the top football assistant coach at the NCAA Division I level. In 2002, the Gophers’ offense reached new heights, tying a school record for touchdowns in a season with 45 and by moving the chains at an alarming rate, recording a single-season school record of 268 first downs. The Gophers also had two players (Terry Jackson II & Thomas Tapeh) each tally at least 900 yards rushing on their way to finishing with the third-highest rushing average in the ground-oriented Big Ten (209.8 ypg). In 2001, the Gophers owned the second-best rushing attack in the Big Ten at 217.2 yards per game. Minnesota averaged a school record 429.1 yards per game in 2000 and posted the second-best passing attack in the Big Ten (232.2 ypg).

In 1999, the Minnesota offensive unit ranked second in the Big Ten and 11th in the nation in rushing offense (227.2) and third in the Big Ten and 14th in the nation in total offense (410.2). Along with his coordinator duties, Browning is also responsible for the tight ends and tackles, whom he has worked with since 1999. He had previously served as the tight ends coach/recruiting coordinator in both 1997 and 1998, in which the Gophers signed outstanding recruiting classes both years. A versatile coach, Browning has coached seven different positions during his 27-year coaching career. Browning aided Ben Utecht (2000-03) in becoming a two-time All-Big Ten selection and one of the premier tight ends in the country. Utecht owns the career record for receptions (83) and receiving yards (1,211) by a tight end and is ranked among the top 15 all-time in school history in those categories. Browning, a Perrysville, Ohio, native, has also made the offensive tackle position one of prominence and stability at Minnesota. Last season, Browning coached Rian Melander to first-team All-Big Ten honors and the team limited the opposition to nine sacks, the fewest allowed by the Gophers since 1970. In 2003, Gopher tackles held the opposition to the fewest sacks (16) in the Big Ten. Former tack- les Jake Kuppe and Jeremiah Carter also earned All-Big Ten recognition under Browning. Browning was also the tight ends coach/recruiting coordinator on Mason’s staff at Kansas from 1995-96. Prior to that, he was the Jayhawks’ outside linebackers coach from 1991-94 and the school’s defensive secondary coach from 1988-90. In addition, he served as the offensive coordinator/quarterbacks/tight ends coach at Kent State from 1985-87 and the wide receivers/quarterbacks coach for the Golden Flash from 1983-84. In 1982, Browning was a graduate assistant wide receivers coach while Mason was the offensive coordinator at Ohio State when the Buckeyes averaged 425.1 yards per game and went 9- 3 overall with a win in the Holiday Bowl. Browning began his collegiate coaching career in 1979 as a gradu- ate assistant at Miami (Ohio). He then became the wide receivers coach as a part-time assistant at North Carolina State in 1980-81 where he coached Mike Quick, who went on to become a first round draft pick of the NFL’s Philadelphia Eagles and an eventual five-time NFL All-Pro selection. Browning is a 1979 graduate of Capital (Ohio) University, where he was a four-year starter at linebacker during his collegiate career and an All-Ohio Athletic Conference selection as a senior. Browning is married to the former Jane Grey Baldwin. 105

David Lockwood will embark on a new chapter in his coaching career in 2005 as he begins his first season as defen- College Coaching Experience sive coordinator and inside linebackers coach and his fourth overall season with the Gophers. 1989 West Virginia graduate assistant Lockwood was named coordinator in February of 2005 after serving in that position for the 2004 Music City Bowl. 1990-93 Delaware tight ends and wide receivers coach He couldn’t have had a more successful debut in leading Minnesota to a 20-16 victory over Alabama and the Gophers’ 1994 James Madison tight ends and wide receivers third consecutive bowl victory. His squad limited the Crimson Tide, the 21st-ranked rush offense in the nation (200.7 ypg), to a mere 21 yards rushing, the Tide’s lowest total of the season. The defense also helped turn the game around coach when defensive tackle Anthony Montgomery forced a fumble by Alabama quarterback Spencer Pennington and defen- 1995-98 Memphis wide receivers coach sive lineman Keith Lipka recovered the ball in the endzone for the first Gophers’ score. 1999 Memphis defensive backs coach Lockwood had been the defensive secondary coach since 2002 and had served as the recruiting coordinator in 1999 (Dec.)-2000 (Mar.) Wyoming defensive backs coach 2003, which has been labeled as one of the Gophers’ most successful recruiting classes in the Mason era. 2000 West Virginia defensive backs coach In only three seasons at Minnesota, Lockwood wasted little time placing his stamp on the Gopher secondary. Under his direction the defense improved its interception total from seven in 2002, to 11 in 2003 and 12 in 2004. Last year’s 2001 Notre Dame cornerbacks coach interception total was the most by a Minnesota defense since 1998. 2002 Minnesota secondary coach In 2003, the Gophers registered 48 pass breakups and had at least three breakups in every game except one. 2003 Minnesota secondary coach/recruiting coordinator The Gophers also didn’t allow their opponents more than 14 passing touchdowns in a season for the second con- 2004 Minnesota secondary coach secutive year (2002-03), which marked the first time a Gopher team had accomplished that feat since 1990-91. Lockwood opened eyes in 2002 as Minnesota led the Big Ten in pass defense and finished among the top 20 in 2005- Minnesota defensive coordinator/inside linebackers the nation by limiting the opposition to an average of 178.6 yards passing per game. That total reflected the lowest aver- age against the Gophers since 1996. The Gophers had finished sixth in the Big Ten in pass defense the year before Lockwood’s arrival. Individually, Lockwood has also contributed to the success of several Gopher defensive backs. Last season Ukee Dozier tied the school record for career pass breakups and became the first Gopher cornerback since Willie Middlebrooks in 2000 to be named first-team All-Big Ten. Safety Eli Ward was named honorable mention All-Big Ten in consecutive seasons (2002-03). Ward led the Gophers in tackles in 2002 and 2003, posting 96 tackles in 2003 after a career-high 116 stops the previous year. Lockwood was also instrumental in the development of cornerback Michael Lehan, who was honorable mention All-Big Ten in 2002. Lehan set the school record for pass breakups in 2002 and was selected by the Cleveland Browns in the fifth round of the 2003 NFL Draft. The Media, Pa., native has built a strong resume in his 16 years of collegiate coaching. Lockwood came to Minnesota from Notre Dame, where he spent the 2001 season as the cornerbacks coach for the Fighting Irish. Lockwood was part of a major resurgence in the secondary at Notre Dame in 2001 as the Irish finished 10th in the nation in pass defense. It was only the third time in the past 54 years that the Irish were ranked in the top 10 nationally in pass defense. Before his coaching tenure at Notre Dame, Lockwood, a 1989 West Virginia University graduate, returned to his alma mater in 2000 as the defensive backs coach under legendary coach Don Nehlen. In his only season with the Mountaineers, Lockwood’s secondary finished ninth in the nation in interceptions with 19 and capped off a 7-5 season by defeating Mississippi in the Music City Bowl. Prior to his arrival at West Virginia, Lockwood joined the University of Wyoming as defensive secondary coach in December of 1999 before returning to his alma mater in March of 2000. Lockwood spent five years at the University of Memphis from 1995-99, coaching wide receivers his first four sea- sons and the secondary in his final year. Among the defensive backs he coached at Memphis were Reginald Howard, a member of the Miami Dolphins, cornerback Mike McKenzie of the New Orleans Saints, Michael Stone of the St. Louis Rams and Idrees Bashir of the Carolina Panthers. In 1994, Lockwood coached the James Madison receivers and tight ends, helping the Dukes reach the NCAA Division I-AA quarterfinals. Lockwood began his full-time coaching career at the University of Delaware, where he was the wide receivers and tight ends coach from 1990-93. The Blue Hens won two Yankee Conference titles and advanced to the NCAA I-AA playoffs in 1991, 1992 and 1993 during his tenure. A four-year letterman and three-year starter from 1985-88 for the Mountaineers at defensive back, Lockwood played in two bowl games, the 1987 Sun Bowl and the 1989 Fiesta Bowl. He recorded 58 career tackles with two interceptions for WVU. He was a member of the 1988 team that posted the first unbeaten regular season in West Virginia his- tory at 11-0 and played Notre Dame for the national championship. Lockwood earned a bachelor’s degree in physical education from West Virginia in 1989. He and his wife, Heidi, have three chil- 106 dren, Autumn, David Jr. and Jeffrey.

Alma Mater ninth season Eastern Michigan, 1983 College Coaching Experience Vic Adamle, a member of Glen Mason’s staff at both Kent State and Kansas, is in his ninth season at the University of Minnesota and his seventh season as the Gophers’ running backs coach after handling the wide receivers his first two sea- 1984 Kent State graduate assistant sons at Minnesota. Adamle will enter his 20th season working under Mason. 1985 Kent State wide receivers coach Adamle has presided over the Gophers’ running tradition and each season his group has reached an even higher 1986-87 Kent State running backs coach plateau. Since he took over as running backs coach in 1999, Adamle’s unit has totaled at least 2,300 yards each season 1988-94 Kansas running backs coach and has reached unchartered territory the past two seasons, surpassing 3,000 yards in 2003 and 2004. 1995-96 Kansas wide receivers coach Last season Adamle worked with Marion Barber III and Laurence Maroney, the the most dynamic running back duo in NCAA history. Maroney rushed for 1,348 yards with 12 touchdowns, while Barber tallied 1,269 yards with 11 scores. With 1997-98 Minnesota wide receivers coach those rushing totals, Barber and Maroney became the first duo in NCAA history to each rush for 1,000 yards in consecutive 1999- Minnesota running backs coach seasons. The Gophers also led the Big Ten in rushing (256.8 ypg) and finished fifth in the nation. In 2003, the Minnesota ground game was electrifying, averaging 289.2 yards per game on the ground, the fourth-high- est total in Big Ten history and the third-best average in the nation. The Gophers also rushed for at least 200 yards in 11 of 13 games, which broke the previous record of six games, and tallied 421 yards rushing against Michigan, the most rushing yards ever allowed by the Wolverines. The Gophers led the NCAA in rushing touchdowns with 46, which represents the third- highest total in Big Ten history. Barber and Maroney each ran for at least 1,000 yards in 2003. Barber was named an All- American by the College Football News and was a first-team All-Big Ten performer. Maroney led all freshman running backs in yardage and was named the Big Ten Freshman of the Year by Big Ten coaches and media, The Sporting News, College Football News and ESPN.com. The 2002 season was also a banner year for Adamle as the Gophers’ rushing game established several records and was a dominant force in the Big Ten despite losing Barber early in the season to injury. Minnesota finished third in the con- ference and was among the top-20 rushing offenses in the nation, averaging 209.8 yards per game. The Gophers joined West Virginia as the only two teams in the country to have two running backs (Terry Jackson II, Thomas Tapeh) reach 900 yards rushing in 2002. Minnesota also joined Iowa as the only two teams in the Big Ten to have two backs with at least four 100-yard rushing games. As a team, the Gophers cleared 400 yards rushing once, 300 yards rushing three times and 200 yards on the ground on seven occasions in 2002. Adamle also helped contribute to the emergence of Jackson in 2002. Jackson exploded onto the scene with 1,317 yards rushing, the fifth-highest single-season total in school history. He also recorded back-to-back 200-yard rushing performanc- es against Northwestern (239 yards) and Michigan State (238 yards), which were the fifth and sixth-best rushing marks in Gopher history. In 2001, Adamle coached Barber to Freshman All-America honors after he totaled 742 yards with seven touchdowns. In 2000 and 2001, he coached Tellis Redmon to back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons on the ground, making him the first Gopher since Chris Darkins to accomplish the feat. In 2000, Redmon ran for 1,368 yards and All-Big Ten honors. Redmon’s 246-yard rushing performance in the Micronpc.com Bowl set a new bowl record and is one of the top individual perform- ances in school history. Adamle made an immediate impact in 1999 as the Gophers set the school record for rushing yards in a season (2,726) in his first year with that unit. Adamle helped guide Thomas Hamner to first-team All-Big Ten honors in 1999 as Hamner rushed for 1,426 yards. That was also the second-highest single-season rushing mark in school history. In 1998, Adamle coached honorable mention All-Big Ten wide receiver Luke Leverson and Ron Johnson, who set a pair of freshman single-season school records en route to being honored on The Sporting News Freshman All-America Second Team. In 1997, Adamle worked with Tutu Atwell, who broke virtually all of the school’s career receiving records. Before his arrival at Minnesota, Adamle had been the wide receivers coach at Kansas in 1995-96 after serving as the school’s running backs coach from 1988-94. At Kent State, he was the running backs coach in 1986-87 and the wide receivers coach in 1985, after having worked as a graduate assistant coach in 1984. Adamle has coached the all-time leading rushers at two different schools — June Henley at Kansas and Eric Wilkerson at Kent State. In addition, Kansas running back Tony Sands, who ranked second on the school’s career rushing list behind Henley, broke the all-time NCAA single-game rushing record with 396 yards against Missouri in 1991. A 1983 graduate of Eastern Michigan, Adamle was a two-year starter and three-year letterwinner (‘80, ‘81, ‘82) as a fullback during his collegiate career for the Eagles. He is the brother of former Northwestern star and televi- sion commentator Mike Adamle. Their father, Tony, was a six-time All-Pro selection as a linebacker for the NFL’s Cleveland Browns after finishing his collegiate career at Ohio State.

The Gophers’ guarded the quarterback as well as they blocked for their tailbacks, leading the Big Ten in sacks allowed with 1.2 per game. In 2003, Shaw was honored by receiving the Distinguished Service Award from the Minnesota High School Football Coaches Association for his contribution to Minnesota football on and off the field. In 2002, Shaw helped transform Eslinger and Setterstrom, two true freshman, into the Maroon and Gold’s stars of the future, as each started all 13 games and were both named to The Sporting News Freshman All-Big Ten Team. Shaw’s interior lineman also set the tone for running backs Terry Jackson II (1,317 yards) and Thomas Tapeh (906 yards), while finishing second in the Big Ten in sacks allowed per game (1.3). In 2001, center Derek Burns earned honorable-mention recognition under Shaw and helped the Gophers finish second in the Big Ten and 14th in the nation in rushing (217.2). While working with the Gopher defense in 2000, Shaw assembled one of the Big Ten’s most athletic and skilled lines in the nation. His defensive line included All-Big Ten performers Karon Riley, Greg White and John Schlecht. Riley led the Big Ten in sacks twice and was drafted by the Chicago Bears. Schlecht was transformed from a walk-on in 1997 to a two- time All-Big Ten pick and the all-time school leader in tackles-for-loss. Schlecht would go on to play for the San Francisco 49ers and New Orleans Saints. Shaw’s defensive line racked up 25 of the team’s 32 sacks in 2000 and ranked fourth in the Big Ten in pass defense. With Shaw’s linemen up front playing a major role, the Gopher defense rose to fourth in the Big Ten and 22nd in the nation in 1999, giving up 319.9 yards per game. Minnesota also ranked first in the Big Ten in pass defense and second in scor- ing defense and pass defense efficiency, which were the highest rankings in those areas since 1967. Shaw was recog- nized for the team’s success as he was named the Nike Assistant Coach of the Year in 1999. In 1998, the Gophers ranked fourth in the Big Ten and 13th in the nation in rushing defense by allowing just 103.7 yards per game on the ground. That was the program’s best since 1962. After setting a new single-season school record 41 sacks in 1997, the Gophers provided the appropriate encore with 44 sacks in 1999, setting a new school record. Prior to working with the Gopher defensive line, Shaw had served as offensive line coach at the U of M from 1993-96. The Gophers had one of the most productive offenses in the Big Ten during that time and a large amount of the credit goes to Shaw and his work with the offensive line. In 1994, Shaw’s movers up front helped pave the way for All-Big Ten running back Chris Darkins’ successful assault on the Gophers’ single-season rushing record. Shaw came to the U of M from Wyoming, where he served as the offensive line coach from 1990-92. In 1990, the Cowboys compiled a 9-4 overall record and played in the Copper Bowl. In 1989, Shaw was the defensive coordinator at Idaho when the Vandals went 9-2 and won the conference championship. His coaching career began in 1977 as a graduate assistant at Cal Poly-San Luis Obispo. After two seasons at Cal Poly, Shaw became the defensive line coach at Cal State-Northridge in 1979, before returning to his alma mater, Cal Poly-San Luis Obispo, as the defensive line coach in 1980-81. Cal Poly won the NCAA Division II national title in 1980. From there, he went to Northern Arizona University, where he spent three years coaching the defensive line. From 1985-88, Shaw, coached at Northern Colorado where he was the offensive coordinator/ offensive line coach. Shaw earned his bachelor’s degree from Cal Poly in 1978 and his master’s from Northern Arizona in 1984. Shaw and his 111 wife, Debra, have three daughters, Whitney, Jenna and Aubrey.

That pair also became only the second set of Gopher receivers to each total at least 800 yards each in the same season. Tressel also aided in bringing the big play back to the receiving corps as the Gophers boasted a receiver with the highest average-per-reception in the Big Ten in both 2002 (Hosack, 22.4 ypc) and 2003 (Ellerson, 20.7 ypc).

GOLDEN GOPHER FOOTBALL 2005 | THREE CONSECUTIVE BOWL VICTORIES H.H.H. METRODOME The Metrodome The Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome, home of Golden Gopher football since 1982, is the nation’s largest air-sup- ported, multiple-use facility. It has been the site of two World Series, a Super Bowl and two NCAA Final Fours, and has kept over five million college football fans warm as they watched and cheered University of Minnesota foot- ball. In addition to serving as the home facility for the Golden Gophers, the Metrodome is home to the Minnesota Vikings and Twins. In 1989, it also served as home to the Timberwolves, who set the all-time NBA atten- dance record in their inaugural season. The Metrodome is located in downtown Minneapolis, just minutes away from the University campus. Its seating capacity is listed at 64,172, but more than 65,000 fans have packed the place for Minnesota football. A stadium record 65,184 attended the Minnesota-Iowa game in 2002. The Golden Gophers have provided their fans with some stellar play in the Metrodome of late. Minnesota is 26-13 at the Dome over the last six years.

GOLDEN GOPHER FOOTBALL 2005 | THREE CONSECUTIVE BOWL VICTORIES PREVIOUS STADIUMS

Memorial Stadium 1924-1981 Opened on Oct. 14, 1924, Memorial Stadium served as the home of the Golden Gophers for 57 years. The stadium was dedicated to the 3,527 uni- versity workers and graduates who served in World War I, 98 of whom died in service. Built on approximately 11 acres where the current University Recreation Center, Aquatic Center and McNamara Alumni Center stand today, Memorial Stadium had 52,736 permanent seats but could seat over 56,000. The horseshoe-shaped stadium also served as the home track and field facil- ity. With the addition of temporary bleacher seating, more than 60,000 fans could fit into Memorial Stadium as a stadium-record 66,284 fans watched Minnesota face Purdue on Nov. 18, 1966. The stadium, which took seven months to construct, cost $572,000 to build. More than 475 workers were employed for the construction that required more than 1.4 million feet of lumber, one million bricks and 90,000 sacks of cement. Minnesota played its first game in Memorial Stadium on Oct. 14, 1924, defeating North Dakota 14-0. Tickets for the inaugural game were just one dollar. The Golden Gophers had a stellar record in Memorial Stadium, includ- ing 12 unbeaten seasons at home. They didn’t suffer a losing season at home from the building’s inception in 1924 until 1950, a span of 26 years. Memorial Stadium was changed to artificial turf in 1970 but then switched back to natural grass in 1977. The stadium was demolished in 1989 and 2,000 of the original bricks were used in the building of Mariucci Arena. University officials debated ren- ovation of Memorial Stadium, but instead opted for a move to the Metrodome.

Greater Northrop Field 1899-1923 Named in honor of University President Cyrus Northrop, Greater Northrop Field opened its doors in 1899. Prior to the stadium’s construc- tion, the University of Minnesota played on a field south of the Armory. The grandstand consisted of chairs around the sidelines. When rates for a downtown stadium increased, the University found it a necessity for an enclosed stadium on the campus. Built in front of Pillsbury Hall, which still stands today, the Northrop Field originally featured a nine-foot high board fence built by the stu- dent body. A quarter-mile track ran around the playing field. Alfred Pillsbury organized the building of a massive brick fence that was built around the original grandstand that made Northrop Field unlike any other stadium in the country at the time. The grandstand seated 8,000 fans and was 33 rows high. Additional seating in the end zones added to the seating capacity. Minnesota played its first game at Northrop Field in November of 1899 against Northwestern where it suffered an 11-5 defeat. The last game was played in 1923 when Minnesota beat Iowa 20-7. Perhaps the most memorable game was a 6-6 tie with Michigan when an over capac- ity 20,000 fans crowded into the stadium.
