The 542-yard eff ort stands as the most total yardage a William and Mary team LIBERTY (1-0), vs. Shippensburg, 7 p.m. has produced in a season opener during the 28-year Laycock era. Last Week: W, vs. Tusculum, 38-14 One of the unit’s goals of the off season was to improve from a 2006 season which saw the off ense produce VIRGINIA TECH (1-0), at LSU, 9:15 p.m. uncharacteristically low numbers, as the team averaged 19 points and 339.4 yards per game. If the early returns are any indication, the off season hard work has paid dividends.

MAINE (0-1), at Connecticut, 7 p.m. Despite the absence of projected senior starter Joe Nicholas, who missed the opener with an injured knee, the Tribe’s Last Week: W, vs. Monmouth, 21-14 receivers had a standout evening, as starting wide outs D.J. McAulay, Elliott Mack and R.J. Archer combined for 16 receptions and 273 yards. McAulay led the way with a career best 162 yards on seven receptions and a touchdown.

Atchison Involved Around CAA Football This Week The coaching staff has made a point of concentrating some schemes that would take more advantage of the Saturday, Sept. 8 Time/TV impressive physical skills that 6-7, 250-plus pound tight end Andrew Atchison brings to the table, especially in the *Richmond at Northeastern 12:30 p.m. passing game. The plan was made a reality on Thursday evening, as the senior from Charlottesville was one of the *New Hampshire at JMU 3:30 p.m. (CN8) team’s most eff ective off ensive weapons. His 139-yards receiving eff ort stands as the best single-game performance William and Mary at VMI 1 p.m. for a Tribe tight end since Glenn Bodnar set the school’s position record with a 183-yard performance vs. Colgate in Villanova at Lehigh 1 p.m. 1983.

Towson at Morgan State 4 p.m. West Chester at Delaware 7 p.m. Archer Impressive Furman at Hofstra 7 p.m. After seeing action in all 11 games of the 2006 season as a wide receiver, sophomore R.J. Archer concentrated Maine at Connecticut 7 p.m. his entire spring, summer and the great majority of fall camp competing for the starting quarterback position. While he was the dark horse in a race that featured two other talented and game-tested players, Archer’s athletic ability and Last Week’s CAA Football Results strong arm kept him very much in the conversation until game week preparations began, and Jake Phillips was named Delaware 49, William and Mary 31 the starter. Towson 20, Central Connecticut State 10 In what is a great testament to his athletic ability and willingness to compete and contribute, Archer made the North Carolina 37, James Madison 14 switch back to wide receiver in earnest just days before Thursday’s opening kickoff . With a late camp injury preventing Maryland 31, Villanova 14 projected senior starter Joe Nicholas from suiting up, Archer stepped right back into the starting line-up and made his Massachusetts 40, Holy Cross 30 eighth-straight start at wide out. Despite throwing far more passes than he caught over the last eight months, Archer Northwestern 27, Northeastern 0 didn’t miss a beat as he contributed fi ve receptions for 58 yards.

He has been especially eff ective over his last four starts at the position. Beginning with his ca- Fordham 27, Rhode Island 23 reer high six-grab, 122-yard eff ort in the win at Towson last season, Archer has 19 catches for 303 yards in the span. Archer ended the 2006 season as the team’s second leading receiver, with 30 catches for 489 yards. Last Week’s CAA Football Players of the Week Off ense: Omar Cuff , Delaware, RB Record Setting Performance Defense: Brian Bradford, Towson, LB After the Tribe conducted an intense and lengthy competition for the starting job at quarterback, junior Jake Special Teams: Courtney Robinson, UMass, KR Phillips emerged from the battle as the week one starter and quickly produced a statement game by throwing for a Rookie: Justin Rogers, Richmond, KR school-record 433 yards and two scores against Delaware. Phillips, who is coming off a season that saw him battle injuries and inconsistency, appeared to have complete command of the Tribe attack, completing 26 of 41 attempts (63.4 %). He saw the fi eld well all evening, as he com- pleted a career high 26 passes to seven diff erent receivers. The Warm Springs, Va. native also showed good feel in the pocket, as he was able to avoid pressure and extend plays with his feet, ending the game with 42 rushing yards gained, which does not count yardage lost on sacks, and an additional rushing touchdown. Phillips’ fi nal tally of 29 yards rush- ing gave him 462 yards of total off ense, which also established a school single-game record. With the 433-yard eff ort, Phillips now has 2,760 career passing yards and sits just 328 away from breaking into the College’s all-time top 10. Dave Murphy (1980-83) currently holds the 10th position with 3,087 yards.

Tailback Talk Junior tailback DeBrian Holmes turned in a solid eff ort in his fi rst career start. He toted the ball a career high 17 times for 53 yards. The 53-yard eff ort stands as his second-best game as a collegian, trailing only a 73-yard perfor- mance vs. Towson in ’05. He also contributed two receptions for 20 yards and was solid in pass protection.

[His injury] is really a shame because D.J. had, I thought, the best game of his career Delaware 11 17 0 Thursday night against Delaware. He really started coming into his own and was playing well. We’re going to really Hofstra 2 2 0 miss him. James Madison 12 15 0 Maine 5 2 0 Q: Talk a little about how you approach the opening game of the season being a conference game. And then Massachusetts 4 6 0 New Hampshire 9 2 0 how do you rebound from such a tough outcome?: Northeastern 10 2 0 A: The most important game is the next game. That’s the approach that I think most coaches would take. We opened Rhode Island 9 2 0 up with a really good opponent Thursday night. Whether it was conference or non-conference, they were very good Richmond 19 8 0 and I thought their off ensive line, their running back were both very good. [Delaware] controlled the line of scrimmage Towson 4 0 0 and that was the diff erence in the game. That and our inability to control them on some screen passes. We played a Villanova 9 7 1 very good team in our fi rst game. Now we’ve got to get ready and look at this one as the most important game.

Game 2 • William and Mary at VMI • Sept. 8, 2007 • 1 p.m. • Foster Stadium 9 In the Spotlight Ryan Jones, Senior, Defensive Tackle

Where are you from?: About 20 minutes outside of Blacksburg, Va., from a little community called McCoy. It used to be coal mining community down by the river.

What brought you to William and Mary?: A chance to play football and good academics.

Being a senior, who walked onto the program, you had to work extremely hard to earn the scholarship and playing time you have had in your time here. How did it feel for you to be able to walk out there on Thursday night, in front of a packed house, and make your fi rst career start?: It was amazing. A lot of hard work paid off . I was really excited.

What do you think was the hardest part of being a walk-on and earning your stripes?: Well, fi rst off , I felt good about the opportunity the staff gave me to play here. I loved the fact that they did set aside scholarships every year for people who would come and just work hard – work their way to earn a scholarship. I mean not everyone’s ready for one right out of high school. People develop at diff erent rates. That was a huge plus that I was given a chance to earn one even after I didn’t get one initially.”

Was there ever a time here in your fi ve years that you felt like you weren’t going to make it?: Not really. Football has always been really important. I wasn’t always sure how much I’d actually get to play here. But it was important to me to be a part of the team and learning from being around the game at this level. I want to coach some day, so the more information I can gather from coaches around me and players and situations, the better. is a very unique experience and is something many people never get to experience. I always knew I’d stick it out, but I didn’t know how it’d end up.

What’s your major?: I’m an economics major and a math minor.

What are your general future plans?: Well, I got engaged after the game on Thursday night. So next summer, there will probably be a wedding. I’d like to move back to the Blacksburg area, whether it be Roanoke or somewhere around there. I’m trying to move into investment banking and eventually getting into coaching as soon I can. I worked this summer with Chesapeake Bank as a teller and through some networking met some people. This spring, I’ll probably have an internship with the Chesapeake investment group.

That must of have been a very big evening for you. Who did you ask and how did you propose?: Cassidy Harris. She’s a former track and fi eld athlete from William and Mary. She graduated two years ago. After the game I had one of my roommates and his girlfriend help me and set up a little situation on the Crim Dell Bridge for me. So after the game, we were walking to my car and took a little bypass and stopped off there. I will never forget that night – the only way it could have been more memorable is if we would have won.

Getting engaged on the Crim Dell Bridge is very old school William and Mary.: Yes. We had never walked across it together before Thursday night.

Did your William and Mary connections play a part helping you get a job?: I think they probably did. At my year end meeting with Coach Laycock this past spring, I told him I was looking at banks for jobs. I had looked at a few and he suggested I go to the people at Chesapeake. I went there that day and got a job.

What was the hardest class you’ve taken at William and Mary?: Econometrics … It got into the whys and hows certain economic trends are started.

What was the last book you’ve read?: Measure of a Man, an autobiography of Sidney Poitier. It was very interesting to see how he came up through the world, dealing with the issues of his time. He dealt with some very diffi cult issues to get to be the successful person he is today.

What do you do for fun, when you have a day off ?: I enjoy hunting and fi shing. I will go and do some trap shooting, when possible. But, another, newer interest is photography. I got a camera last year and I’ve really gotten into taking scenic photography. I’ll take pictures of birds and other animals.

What is the most interesting summer job you’ve ever had?: Well, prior to this summer, when I stayed here for summer workouts, I’ve gone home and worked construction jobs. I’ve been a member of a welding crew and the other I had was working with an outfi t that poured concrete as part of industrial projects. Both of those jobs made me realize that I wasn’t really interested in making a living in construction.
