A Message from the N Club President 1 N CLUB Letterwinners’ Association Newsletter | September 2009 A Message from the N Club President Greetings from your Letterwinners N Club! The fall NU sports season has kicked off and our Husker teams have had great starts to their seasons. I am pleased to report that the N Club has experienced renewed growth and added excitement this year. To follow the success of our spring events, the Letterwinners N Club will be hosting tailgate gatherings at every home football game this fall. We have secured a limited number of parking spots at a prime location at Lot 11 on 10th and Y Street which is just north of the stadium. Each spot is available for every game at $20 per game but no game ticket will be provided with this parking fee. The tailgates have been great fun so far. Special tailgate events with food and music are planned for the home football games on Sept. 26 (Lousiana-Lafayette), Oct. 17 (Texas Tech) and Nov. 7 (Oklahoma). We have invited the Oklahoma Letterwinners Club to join us at our pregame tailgate for that game, so don’t miss out as this should be a great event. Please RSVP to [email protected] as early as possible so that we can include you in the food count! I would also like to make special mention to our first “Honorary N Club Member” recipient for 2009 – George Sullivan. During a pregame on-the-field ceremony, George received his “N” letter jacket and lifetime membership to the N Club. As many of you know, George has given more than 50 of years of service to Husker athletes competing in all sports. His dedication to Husker athletics is truly unmatched. I was honored to be a part of the ceremony along with our Vice President Larry Frost and Secretary Tim Wurth. Congratulations, George. Lastly, 2009-10 dues notices and membership information have been mailed out. We truly hope that you will join your N Club so that we can keep the group’s momentum going strong and build our membership. If you have not received your dues notice, please notify Doak Ostergard via email at [email protected] or call him at 402-472-0771 to get on our contact list. Go Big Red!

  • David Cutcliffe Named Walter Camp 2013 Coach of the Year
    For Immediate Release: December 5, 2013 Contact: Al Carbone (203) 671-4421 - Follow us on Twitter @WalterCampFF Duke’s David Cutcliffe Named Walter Camp 2013 Coach of the Year NEW HAVEN, CT – David Cutcliffe, head coach of the Atlantic Coast Conference Coastal Division champion Duke University Blue Devils, has been named the Walter Camp 2013 Coach of the Year. The Walter Camp Coach of the Year is selected by the nation’s 125 Football Bowl Subdivision head coaches and sports information directors. Cutcliffe is the first Duke coach to receive the award, and the first honoree from the ACC since 2001 (Ralph Friedgen, Maryland). Under Cutcliffe’s direction, the 20th-ranked Blue Devils have set a school record with 10 victories and earned their first-ever berth in the Dr. Pepper ACC Championship Game. Duke clinched the Coastal Division title and championship game berth with a 27-25 victory over in-state rival North Carolina on November 30. Duke (10-2, 6-2 in the Coastal Division) will face top-ranked Florida State (12-0) on Saturday, December 7 in Charlotte, N.C. The Blue Devils enter the game with an eight-game winning streak – the program’s longest since 1941. In addition, the Blue Devils cracked the BCS standings for the first time this season, and were a perfect 4-0 in the month of November (after going 1-19 in the month from 2008 to 2012). Cutcliffe was hired as Duke’s 21st coach on December 15, 2007. Last season, he led the high- scoring Blue Devils to a school record 410 points (31.5 points per game) and a berth in the Belk Bowl – the program’s first bowl appearance since 1994.

  • With a Few Returning Letterman As a Nucleus, the Mounties, Under the Able Coaching of Their Mentors Clary Anderson and Butch
    1955 With a few returning letterman as a nucleus, the Mounties, under the able coaching of their mentors Clary Anderson and Butch Fortunato, developed into what might well have been the best football team in the state. The Mounties led in both the Saylor and Collition ratings. However, the Newark News awarded the State Championship to Memorial High School. After two easy wins (26-0 and 46-0) over weak Orange and Irvington teams, Montclair ran head-on into an inspired Kearny team which battled through the mud to hold the Mounties to a scoreless tie. It was in this game that the fans discovered Warren Rauhofer, whose powerful running carried the brunt of the Mountie offense. Undaunted, Montclair then met Nutley in a hard fought affair that saw sophomore sensation, Richie Haines, score both of Montclair’s touchdowns on the first and last plays of the game while the tough Mountie defense shackled the quick deceptive Nutley backfield to hold them to a single score (14-6). The Mounties suffered no letdown after this hard fought fracas, but went on to meet a powerful East Orange squad in a tense thriller. Fine offensive play by Richie Haines and glue-fingered Ken Russo led the Mounties to a 14-7 victory. Columbia, a supposed threat, was overwhelmed 47-0 and then the Bulldogs went on to swamp West Orange and Clifton by scores of 36-14 and 32-0, with Richie Haines, Lindel Peoples, Ken Russo, Ralph Galascione, and Ray Spivey excelling. The Mounties, with a sharp offense as a leading factor, invaded Foley Field in Bloomfield on Thanksgiving Day; but it was the defensive unit that stole the spotlight.
