Azusa Pacific In Season Openers Azusa Pacific is 23-28 all-time in season openers and 31-19-1 all-time in the first home game of a season. This year’s clash with West Texas A&M is just the fourth time in the past 12 years the Cougars have opened the season at home; Azusa Pacific is 13-7 when the season opener is a home game. Most recently, the Cougars kicked off their first season of active NCAA Division II membership (2014) with a thrilling, nationally-televised 26-23 double-OT win over No. 2-ranked Grand Valley State, propelling the Cou- gars to a 10-1 campaign and second consecutive GNAC title. 2016 Azusa Pacific Schedule 09/01 WEST TEXAS A&M 7 p.m. 09/10 *at Humboldt State 6 p.m. Series History: Azusa Pacific vs. West Texas A&M 09/17 *at Central Washington 1 p.m. All-time series: Azusa Pacific evened the all-time series with West Texas A&M with a 27-24 come-from- 09/24 *SIMON FRASER 6 p.m. behind win over the Buffs in last year’s season opener in Canyon, Texas.

Santa Cruz guided Azusa Pacific through its transition into NCAA membership by leading the Cou- gars to consecutive 10-win seasons and back-to-back Great Northwest Athletic Conference champion- ships in 2013 and 2014, which were the program's second and third seasons of NCAA competition. In four years of NCAA Division II competition, Azusa Pacific is a GNAC-best 30-14 overall, winning 22 of its past 26 conference games entering the 2016 campaign. In 2013, Santa Cruz took a Cougar team picked fifth in the GNAC preseason poll to a 9-1 league record before concluding the historic season with a dominant postseason win in the Victory Bowl, 67-0 over Greenville College, to give Azusa Pacific its third 10-win season in program history. For his efforts, San- ta Cruz was named the 2013 GNAC and National Christian College Athletic Association Coach of the Year. A year later, his team repeated the GNAC title with another 10-win campaign, this time starting the year with a thrilling nationally-televised 26-23 double-overtime win over Division II's all-time winningest pro- gram Grand Valley State in front of a school-record crowd of 6,199 plus the national TV audience. The Cougars responded from the season's lone setback with a season-ending nine-game win streak, led by Terrell Watson, who was the NCAA's leading rusher (all divisions) with 195.7 rushing yards per game. The 10-1 campaign was the first time Azusa Pacific produced back-to-back 10-win seasons. In 2015, despite the departures of Watson and offensive tackle Cody Clay to NFL camps, the Cougars extended their streak of producing a 1,000-yard rusher to a fifth straight year, helping produce the pro- gram's third consecutive winning season by going 6-4 overall and 3-3 in the GNAC. The outstanding coaching staff Santa Cruz has assembled includes NFL Hall of Famer Jackie Slater, who was instrumental in the development of former walk-on tight end Luke Marquardt into an NFL-caliber offensive lineman (currently with the Detroit Lions) and 2014 graduate Cody Clay, who also signed an NFL free agent contract with the Atlanta Falcons and participated in training camp with the Dallas Cowboys. In addition, running backs coach Ben Buys helped develop Watson into the 2015 NFLPA Collegiate Bowl MVP, which led to a spot on the Cincinnati Bengals practice squad in 2015 and a new free agent deal with the Cleveland Browns in 2016. For all his recent success on the field, Santa Cruz is just as proud of the impact he's made on the program by placing his emphasis on the transfor- mation of young men who can achieve success after graduation. His focus on academics has resulted in landing a league-high 44 players from Azusa Pacific on the GNAC All-Academic team over the past four seasons while claiming four consecutive GNAC academic team championships. "I'm a passionate guy," said Santa Cruz. "I'm passionate about Jesus Christ, my family and Azusa Pacific. Through competition on the field and in the classroom, I want to see young men exit this program with an understanding of effective process, a sense of self, and the vision to become suc- cessful husbands, fathers, employees and employers." It's a philosophy that has delivered concrete results, as evidenced by Azusa Pacific's recent success both on and off the field. The Cougars used a four-game winning streak at the end of the 2012 season as a springboard into consecutive 10-win seasons and GNAC titles in 2013 and 2014 and a third straight winning season in 2015 as the program has piled up a 30-7 record since winning its Homecoming game in 2012. The first four years of Division II competition came on the heels of back-to-back playoff appearances which wrapped up the program's long-standing affiliation as an NAIA independent program, and Santa Cruz was recognized as the NAIA Independent Coach of the Year in 2010 and 2011. The 2011 season, which was Azusa Pacific's final year competing in the NAIA, opened with a narrow 42-40 loss to University of San Diego in a wild shootout that featured 48 combined fourth-quarter points in front of 6,124 (school attendance record at the time).

  • The Following Players Comprise the 2017 Season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set. the Regular Starters at Each Position Are L
    2017 APBA PRO FOOTBALL SET ROSTER The following players comprise the 2017 season APBA Pro Football Player Card Set. The regular starters at each position are listed first and should be used most frequently. Realistic use of the players below will generate statistical results remarkably similar to those from real life. IMPORTANT: When a Red "K" appears in the R-column as the result on any kind of running play from scrimmage or on any return, roll the dice again, refer to the K-column, and use the number there for the result. When a player has a "K" in his R-column, he can never be used for kicking or punting. If the symbol "F-K" or "F-P" appears on a players card, it means that you use the K or P column when he recovers a fumble. Players highlighted in yellow played for two or more teams. They are assigned to the team they last played for in the season.
