Regular Season Recap
Defense wins championships. That is UW-W’s philosophy coming into this postseason. The Warhawks come into the NCAA III playoffs boasting the second-best scoring defense in the nation, allowing 8.0 points per contest, leading the way to a 33rd conference championship and 11th NCAA appearance.
The defense has 11 All-WIAC honorees, highlighted by WIAC Player of the Year Cole Klotz. Klotz, a senior linebacker, led the team with 70 tackles and seven tackles for a loss. The experienced linebacker corps has combined for a total of 207 tackles over the year and helped UW-W lead the conference with 29 tackles in the offensive backfield.
The defensive backfield is 1st in the WIAC in passing defense, allowing 146.2 yards per contest and a defensive passing efficiency that is fifth in the nation, holding opposing quarterbacks to a rating of 82.89.
First Team All-WIAC honoree Marcus McLin and Second Team All-WIAC honoree Brady Grayvold anchor the defensive backfield. Grayvold has three interceptions while McLin has a pair of interceptions and five breakups. Honorable mention Andrew Keister has a pair of interceptions and a fumble recovery, including an 88 yard pick-six against Waldorf.
First Team All-WIAC defensive lineman Loussaint Minett leads the defensive front with 5.5 sacks on the year and 6.5 tackles for a loss, while fellow first team honoree Marshall Rutherford has 19 tackles, four tackles for a loss and a pair of sacks. Minett also got his hands up on the D-line, blocking two kicks. The D-line has helped to hold the opponents to a WIAC-leading 75.5 yards on the ground.
Second Team All-WIAC honoree, Matt Behrendt has been very efficient under center for Whitewater, with a rating of 150.7. Behrendt is 191-298 with 26 touchdowns and only one interception. First Team All-WIAC wide receiver Jake Ku- merow has been the favorite target with 50 receptions and an average of 17.3 yards per reception, finding pay dirt 11 times.
In the backfield second team running back, Jordan Ratliffe has got the bulk of the carries over the season, powering his way to 841 yards on 139 attempts and five touchdowns. Booker Ross has come in for a change of pace, averaging 5.5 yards per carry with five touchdowns.
Leading the way for the offense is the strong offensive line, led by Junior Lucas Skibba and Sophomore Johnny Wieder- holt. Skibba was named First Team All-WIAC and Wiederholt was an honorable mention after the 2013 campaign.
Special teams has played a huge roll for UW-W this season. With first team honoree Eric Kindler climbing up the White- water record book after 48 extra points this year and 13 field goals, giving him 189 extra points and 57 field goals in his career, both second in school history.

COACHING BIOGRAPHIES HEAD COACH LANCE LEIPOLD
In six+ years of directing Warhawk football Lance Leipold has compiled a 93-6 mark. The wins include five consecutive Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference championships, five trips to the NCAA III playoffs --- all of them ending in the Division III championship game, the Amos Alonzo Stagg Bowl. Four national title trophies, 2007, 2009, 2010, and 2011. That run of success has reached record proportions, with UW-W ending 2011 on a forty-five game win streak, the longest active streak at any level of college football, and the fifth longest in NCAA football history, in any Division.
Leipold directed UW-W to a 14-1 record in 2007, less than a year after he took over the reins from Bob Berezowitz, his coach during his playing days and the head coach when Leipold got his start in coaching. That first season produced eight first team all-conference picks, six All-Americans, the national player of the year (Gagliardi Trophy) and the D3 Rimington Trophy recipient. Leipold swept all of the Division III coach of the year honors. UW-W rolled to a 13-2 mark in 2008, all the way to a runner-up finish in D3. Along the way six Warhawks earned First Team All-WIAC recognition and six were accorded All-American honors, including the D3foot- ball.com Defensive Player of the Year. There was no way of knowing that the loss in the 2008 Stagg Bowl would be Whitewater’s last for a while – that “while,” a NCAA (all divisions) leading thirty game win streak, covered the next two seasons. The 2009 campaign produced the school’s first 15-0 record, and another conference and national champion- ship. Seven All-Americans included the Fred Mitchell Award winner (as the top kicker in Division II/III). The run contin- ued through 2010, fifteen wins taking the streak to thirty games without a loss. Six more All-Americans, including the D3 Offensive Player of the Year helped Leipold collect another Coach of the Year honor. Looking at rebuilding the of- fensive and defensive lines, 2011 was supposed to be the year of anyone else. But another 15-0 season, another WIAC championship, and another year advancing through the Division III playoffs to the Stagg Bowl ended up just like the others -- a third consecutive national championship and Whitewater's fourth in five years. Seven players earned All- America honors, including two Academic All-Americans. The group included the Division III Offensive Player of the Year and a Gagliardi Trophy finalist. For the fifth straight year Leipold added Division III coach of the year acco- lades. 2012 didn't live up to pre-season expectations as the Warhawks went 7-3 and missed the postseason for the first time under Leipold. Six players earned all-conference honors.
Leipold, a quarterback for the Warhawks in the mid-1980’s and former Warhawk assistant coach, was associate head coach and offensive coordinator for the University of Nebraska-Omaha since 2004. He returned to head the UW-W football program in January 2007.
Leipold, out of Jefferson (WI), played four years for the Warhawks (1983-1986). The 1984 team won the WIAC title, and the teams he played on were a combined 20-10-2. He is still second all-time in the Warhawk record books for career pass attempts (647), fourth in yards (4,277), sixth in completions (303), and tied for tenth with 27 touchdowns. He is also among the top ten in those same categories in the UW-W records for a single season, all in his junior year in 1985. In a game against UW-River Falls in 1985 Leipold completed 37-57 for 494 yards -- among the top 20 individual in WIAC history. He was the team MVP in 1986, and was elected to the UW-W Athletics Hall of Fame in 2003.
Leipold's coaching career began where he played, at UW-W. He coached quarterbacks in 1987 and wide receivers in 1988, helping both teams win WIAC (then WSUC) championships. After one year at Doane College in Nebraska, he returned to UW-W in 1990 to coach and work on a master's degree. He helped the Warhawks win another WIAC title while serving as Berezowitz's offensive coordinator. Leipold moved on to the University of Wisconsin-Madison for the 1991, '92 and '93 seasons, serving as a graduate assistant all three years, working with the offense. The 1993 Badgers won the Big Ten and the Rose Bowl, going 10-1-1. His first stint at Division II Nebraska-Omaha covered 1994-2000, where he was part of a staff that turned UNO from a 1-10 team (1994) to North Central Conference champions in 1996, 1998 and 2000. He was UNO's offensive coordinator in 2000. He moved to the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in 2001, serving as an administrative assistant the same year the Cornhuskers played in the national championship game. In 2002 and 2003 Nebraska also went to bowl games with Leipold as a member of the staff. He returned to UNO in 2004 as the associate head coach and offensive coordinator, where he contributed to three consecutive 8-3 seasons and three straight conference championships.

STAGG BOWL HISTORY
2005 Salem, Va.--The greatest season in UW-Whitewater football history ended in Salem Civic Stadium with a 35-28 loss to Mount Union College (Oh) in the NCAA Division III national championship, the Amos Alonzo Stagg Bowl on December 17.
UW-Whitewater got the first break of the game, when defensive back Vic Wipperfurth picked off a Mike Jorris pass, returning the ball 32 yards to the Mount Union 42-yard line. UW-Whitewater converted the opportunity, ending the five-play 42-yard drive with a two-yard touchdown run by Justin Beaver, ex- tending his school season record with his 24th touchdown, to give UW-Whitewater a 7-0 lead at 9:54.
It took Mount Union just over three minutes to even the score, covering 80 yards in four plays, the big- gest coming on a Jorris to Pierre Garcon 63-yard scoring toss at 6:32.
The same duo gave Mount Union the lead at 5:03 in the second, this time with Jorris hooking up with Garcon for 12 yards, wrapping up eight plays that covered 58 yards.
The half ended 14-7 Mount Union, with UW-Whitewater's Beaver gaining 47 on nine carries, which is where he also ended the half, only with 15 carries.
In the third quarter the Warhawks moved down the field, advancing to the Mount Union three yard line. After no gain on third down, UW-Whitewater went for the touchdown on fourth down and the pass fell incomplete. Two plays later, freshman running back Nate Kmic took the ball 95 yards to open a 21-7 margin with 8:05 left in the third.
UW-Whitewater's offense moved the ball down the field on its next possession, but the drive ended when Mount Union picked off a Jacobs pass intended for Jim Leszczynski near the five yard line. The Purple Raiders turned that miscue into seven points, with Kmic going in from two yards out to increase the margin to 28-7.
UW-Whitewater came back at 12:22 on a Jacobs to Leszczynski 23-yard touchdown to cut the margin to 28-14.
Just four minutes later, UW-Whitewater continued its comeback, with Jacobs hitting tight end Pete Schmitt with a 15-yard scoring play to narrow Mt. Union's margin to 28-21 at the 8:37 mark.
Mount Union controlled the clock late in the fourth quarter behind the rushing of Kmic, who ended a long (71 yards), time consuming (5:39) drive. Kmic put a punctuation point on the drive with his third touch- down of the day, scoring from 15 yards out at 2:50 to make it 35-21 Purple Raiders.
It had to make UW-Whitewater head coach proud when his team came back yet again, with Justin Ja- cobs sneaking in from one yard out with two seconds left to make the final margin, after an on-side kick which Mount Union recovered, 35-28, Mount Union.
"I'm very proud of our football team, " UW-Whitewater head coach Bob Berezowitz said. "They never quit, all the way to the end."
UW-Whitewater, which defeated the last two NCAA III championships (Linfield 2004, Saint John's 2003) among its four playoff wins on the way to the Stagg Bowl, couldn't make it three in a row. (Mount Union won the title in 2002). The Warhawks finish the 2005 season 14-1, establishing school records for victo- ries (previous mark 10), touchdowns, points, first downs, total yards, pass completions, passing yards, rushing yards, interceptions, first downs rushing and first downs passing in the team categories.

Among individual mark sophomore running back Justin Beaver broke the NCAA III single season rushing record in the third quarter, going past the old mark of 2,385 Dante Brown of Marietta College (OH) set in 1996. Beaver ended the game with 125 yards rushing on 30 carries, giving him 2,420 yards in a season.
Among many players joining the record procession were senior wide receiver Jim Leszczynski (season receptions), junior wideout Derek Stanley (season yards receiving, touchdowns receiving in a season), senior kicker Michael Chaulk (season PAT's made and attempted), returner Neil Mrkvicka (season and career punt returns, season return yards).
UW-Whitewater's appearance in the national championship game was the first by a WIAC school since 1995 when UW-La Crosse claimed the national crown.

2006 Salem, Va.--For the second straight season, University of Wisconsin-Whitewater fell short against Mount Union College (Ohio) in the Amos Alonzo Stagg Bowl for the NCAA Division III football national champi- onship.
Pierre Garcon scored two touchdowns in the second half and the Purple Raiders defense held the War- hawks to three second half points as Mount Union emerged with a 35-16 victory in front of 6,051 specta- tors at Salem Stadium.
Purple Raider signal-caller Greg Micheli was named the game’s Most Outstanding Player, having led his squad off the bench in Mount Union’s two quarterback system. Micheli set a new NCAA Division III Championship record buy completing 18-of-22 passing for an .818 completion percentage. He threw for 202 yards and three scores, and also ran for 42 yards and one more touchdown.
The win for the Raiders marked the program’s ninth in 10 total visits to Salem, Virginia. This contest, the 34th Stagg Bowl, marked the only repeat performance in the contest’s storied history.
“This was a great football game today,” explained Mount Union head coach Larry Kehres. “We played our best game of the season. We played more aggressive. I think we defeated a great team. We felt we had to play that way because Whitewater is a great team and they brought out the best in us.”
“First of all I would like to extend on the behalf of my football program congratulations to Mount Union,” mentioned UW-Whitewater head coach Bob Berezowitz. “They were a better football team than we were today. Credit goes to Larry (Coach Kehres). He has always had an outstanding program.”
139
"I really feel for our team," Berezowitz continued. "We had a slogan of "Unfinished Business" for this season and we would have liked to complete that, but our players have accomplished something the last two years that no other Whitewater football team in history has done."
UW-Whitewater scored first on a 25-yard field goal with by Jeff Schebler with 2:14 left in the opening quarter. The 3-0 UW-Whitewater lead marked the first time the Purple Raiders trailed in a game since the first quarter of last year’s Stagg Bowl, a string of 59 straight quarters.
The deficit didn’t last long as Mount Union jumped on the board just 1:10 into the second frame on a two -yard pass from Micheli to Anthony Antonucci. Micheli put the Raiders ahead 14-3 just under seven minutes later with a darting 12-yard scamper in which he broke several Warhawk arm tackles.
“I was known as a runner and the defense is going to adjust to someone that runs more and I think that opened up the passing game today,” explained MUC’s Micheli.
Just as the game seemed to be getting out of hand, Jordan Wells sparked the Warhawk offense with an 81-yard return on the ensuing kickoff. Two plays later, quarterback Justin Jacobs leaned into the end zone on a one-yard push with 5:46 on the clock.
UW-Whitewater pulled to within one with 33 seconds to play when Schebler booted his second field goal of the game, this one from 24 yards out.
The third quarter proved the Warhawks’ undoing for the second straight season as Mount Union added two more touchdowns to the scoreboard. Micheli hooked up with receiver Pierre Garcon on 46-yard catch-and-run for the first tally with 5:30 to play in the quarter.
Matt Kostelnik and Matt Rees made amends for Mount Union’s earlier special teams with 2:44 on the clock. Kostelnik busted through the middle of UW-Whitewater’s line to block a punt and Rees returned it 34 yards for a 28-13 lead going into the final stanza.
Schebler set a new Stagg Bowl record with his third field goal of the game (36 yards) to cut the Mount Union lead to 28-16, but Garcon and Micheli connected on a second scoring pass just four minutes later, this one of 10 yards to complete the game’s scoring.
Running back Nate Kmic led the Purple Raiders’ running attack with 111 yards on the ground on the way to setting a new NCAA team playoff record with 1,478 yards (1,411 by Mary Hardin-Baylor in 2004). Garcon finished with eight catches for 116 yards while Justin Wray added five receptions for 43 yards. Defensive end Sam Vucelich led the Raider defense with seven total tackles.
UW-Whitewater’s Jacobs finished 12-of-27 for 148 yards. Running back Justin Beaver ran for 87 yards on 23 carries, while receiver Derek Stanley hauled in six passes for 82 yards. Linebacker A.J. Raebel led the Warhawks with 13 total tackles. Ben Farley picked off on pass, his eighth of the season.
The game marked the final contest for UW-Whitewater head coach Bob Berezowitz, who announced his retirement at the beginning of the year. In his 22 seasons, Berezowitz compiled a 158-73-4 record (.681 winning percentage), including eight Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference titles, five NCAA Division III playoff appearances and two trips to the national championship game. His 158 victories rank third on the league’s all-time list.

2007 Salem, Va.--Danny Jones’ one-yard touchdown plunge with 1:33 remaining in the game lifted UW-Whitewater to a 31-21 victory over Mount Union College (Ohio) in the NCAA Division III football national championship game on Dec. 15.
The national title is the first in program history and first for a Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference school since UW-La Crosse claimed the 1995 trophy with a 36-7 triumph over Rowan University (N.J.). This year’s contest was the third straight title bout between the Warhawks and Purple Raiders. The Purple Raiders won the previ- ous two meetings and nine of the last 14 national championships. Mount Union also entered the game riding a 37-game winning streak.
”I’ve said along that we have a great group of seniors and that they played their hearts out,” explained UW-Whitewater head coach Lance Leipold. “Our staff did an outstanding job in making sure we believe. I can’t say how proud I am of our guys and the rest of our program.”
UW-Whitewater jumped to a 7-0 lead in the first quarter on a one-yard quarterback sneak by Jones and built a 10-0 advantage into halftime when Jeff Schebler connected on a 32-yard field goal with two seconds remaining in the half.
Mount Union entered the game allowing just 5.2 points per game and compiling a NCAA-best 54.1 points per game on offense.
The Warhawks expanded their lead on the opening drive of the second half when Mike Sherman recovered a Justin Beaver fumble in the end zone to give UW-Whitewater a 17-0 lead. The touchdown capped a 12-play, 71-yard drive.
Mount Union countered with a pair of Nate Kmic touchdown runs to get within 17-14. UW-Whitewater’s Justin Beaver had a 13-yard touchdown run with 6:11 remaining in the game that gave the Warhawks a 24-14 lead.
Beaver finished the contest with a season-high 249 yards on 31 carries and was named the game's Most Outstanding Player.
“You can’t get anything better than winning a national title in your last game,” said Beaver. The Warhawks forced three lost fumbles and held standout receiver Pierre Garcon to only four catches for 30 yards. Linebacker Jace Rindahl led the unit with 16 tackles (10 solo). Ben Farley had 13 stops and two forced fumbles, and Anthony White collected 1.5 of UW-Whitewater’s three quarterback sacks.

2008 Momentum.
One of the most over-used words in sports lingo, but it certainly applied to the first half of the 2008 Stagg Bowl in Salem, Virginia.
Mount Union needed just four plays and less than two minutes for Greg Micheli to find Cecil Shorts for a 55 yard touchdown to put the Purple (purple, again, throughout the stands, on the sidelines, at the tailgates) Raiders ahead 7-0 at 13:10.
After a quick defensive stop MUC was back at it, with Micheli connecting with Shorts again, this time for 41 yards, to end a quick three play drive to make it 14-0 with 9:15 left in the first quarter. With the momentum clearly on the Mount Union sideline, Aaron Samplawski took it away with a 56 yard kickoff return to give UW- W the ball on the Purple Raider 35. Antwan Anderson punched it in from one yard out on the fourth play of the drive to cut the margin in half, 14-7 with 7:46 still remaining in the first quarter.
Momentum, fickle as ever, crossed the field and helped MUC push the ball 75 yards in seven plays, with Nate Kmic, the all-time leading rusher in NCAA (all divisions) history, scoring on a two yard inside handoff.
The first quarter ended 21-7, with Mount Union passing for 171 yards, and Whitewater gaining 83 yards of total offense. MUC's Micheli was also successful on the ground, leading both teams with 42 yards on four carries in the first. (Think Danny Jones, circa 2007.)
Jeff Schebler, an All-American again this year, made "mo" shift again, connecting from 21 yards to make it 21-10 with 9:50 in the second quarter, ending an eleven play drive.
Late in the half Mount Union marched to Whitewater's three yard line. Reminiscent of 2007's game-changing defensive stop, on second down Justin Ankley tackled Kmic for a four yard loss, and a third down pass was incomplete, forcing MUC to settle for a 29 yard field goal by Ryan Wilk.
Whitewater got within field goal attempt distance, but the ball was left of the goal posts, and the teams went in to the locker room with the Purple Raiders leading 24-10.
Micheli passed for 229 yards, hitting 9-13 in the first half. Six of those passes went to Shorts, covering 167 yards and the two TD's. Whitewater's Jeff Donovan was accurate, going 10-15, for 88 yards, with Aaron Rusch grabbing three for 34 yards. Antwan Ander- son rushed five times for 27 yards for UW-W in the first half. The teams combined for 480 yards of offense in the first thirty minutes.
Whitewater took the opening kickoff of the second half, after another good return from Samplawski, moved to the Mount Union 22, but another field goal attempt went left and, for a change, momentum stayed put.
Mount Union appeared to pick up steam again on its next possession, driving to the Whitewater three, but again the Whitewater defense was up the task. With a second and goal Micheli tried to scramble left, but several Warhawks upended him, causing him to lose the ball that Zach Christopherson recovered in the end zone to give the Warhawks a new start at the 20. Facing third and twelve, Donovan hooked up with Jordan Wells for a first down at the MUC 19. Another completion, to Adam Brandes, originally called out of bounds but overturned on review, brought the ball to the 14 to help Schebler convert a 31 yard field goal at 1:01 to cut the score to 24-13 Mount Union, with Schebler adding to his NCAA Division III career field goal record with his 60th as he nears the end of his junior season.
The Warhawk defense forced a three and out to end the third quarter, and Whitewater's offense took over after a short punt at their own 48 yard line.
Whitewater had trailed by 140 yards of offense at halftime, but outgained MUC in the third. With Whitewater driving early in the fourth quarter, advancing to the opponent's 27, a Warhawk pass tipped off a receiver's hands into the hands of Purple Raider defensive back Drew McClain who returned the ball 78 yards for a score. Mount Union led 31-13 with 11:59 left in the game.
The Warhawks responded with a twelve play, 61 yard drive with Antwan Anderson carrying it in from two yards out to cut the defi- cit to 31-20 with 6:46 left in the game. Anderson had already notched his fifth consecutive 100+ yard game in Whitewater's tan- dem 1,000 yard rusher backfield.
Whitewater took over again at their own 13 with 4:24 left, facing the prospect of having to score twice in the time remaining. The Warhawks drove down the field, with Donovan stretching his 6-5 frame over the goal line for a score with 1:12 left. A two point pass conversion attempt was completed, but fell short of the goal line. Mount Union's lead was cut to 31-26.
Whitewater had clearly regained momentum by the end of the game as they led MUC in first downs 31-15, total yards 455-401, and time of possession 34 minutes to 26. Both teams combined for only five punts.

Anderson, who made his first collegiate start in the second round of the playoffs against Willamette, rushed for 805 yards in the five playoff games. He ended up with 121 on 19 carries in the Stagg Bowl. Donovan passed for 257 yards completing 28-38 with one interception. His leading receiver Aaron Rusch, caught eight passes from Donovan for 79 yards.
Defensively, Max Ford came up with seven tackles (4 solo, 3 assisted). All-American Jace Rindahl got to the quarter back once for a sack and added five tackles, one for a four yard loss.
Schebler, a second team All-American selection, contributed to the Warhawk scoring with two field goals.
Mount Union's quarterback Greg Micheli, who was also named Gagliardi Trophy winner the year after UW-W running back Justin Beaver was the recipient, went 12-19 for 262 yards and a 55 yard long completion. Cecil Shorts was the leading receiver in the game with seven catches and 178 yards, two touchdowns and was at the receiving end of Micheli's game long 55 yard pass.
Chaz Jordan led the Purple Raiders on defense with 11 tackles (7 solo, 4 assisted.) Sam Kershaw added nine tackles and a sack. UW-W ends their 2008 season 13-2 as Mount Union ends with an undefeated mark, perfect at 15-0.

2009 Salem, Va.- One repetition at a time. One practice at a time, One game at a time. UW-W's Lance Leip- old had his team so focused on their next step there was never any time, or reason, to look ahead. The Warhawks can afford to take some time now, but to look back and reflect on their second National Colle- giate Athletic Association Division III title in three years. UW-Whitewater defeated Mount Union College 38-28 Saturday at Salem Stadium in snow-covered Salem, Virginia.
Make no mistake, Salem Stadium was in great shape. The city of Salem and the game organizers worked through the night and morning, and despite a five hour delay in the kickoff, had the field ready for a championship game.
The teams were 1-2 (Mount, Whitewater) in both national Division III polls since the preseason poll in August, and the game that resulted reinforced that view.
Leipold allowed himself to reflect on his team. "It has been a long journey," UW-W head coach Lance Leipold said. They had a chance to be a great football team. Guys didn't care who got the carries or catches. And our defense epitomized that. You look at the stats after a game and nothing jumps out at you. They just do the job"
After Whitewater stopped Mount Union on the opening drive the Warhawks took over on their own 15. Levell Coppage broke off 25 yard run to move it out to the 41, putting him over the 2,000 yard mark this season. Jeff Donovan found Adam Brandes for 24 yards. Donovan connected again, this time with Jordan Wells for 23 yards to take the ball to the one yard line, where Coppage ran it in with 8:38 gone in the first. Jeff Schebler's kick made it 7-0.
Whitewater has scored first in four of the five Stagg Bowl meetings between these teams.
Mount came back, driving from its 32 to Whitewater's 21, but a pass on fourth down lost five yards and Whitewater took over.
Whitewater took over and moved downfield, with the biggest play a 37 yard Aaron Rusch reception. The catch put Rusch into the number one spot in the school record book for career yards with 2,630, passing Derek Stanley (2,621, 2003-2006). UW-W finished the drive with a one yard Donovan to Cory Robin- son fade as Robinson ran into the deep right corner of the end zone, Robinson's first touchdown this sea- son. Schebler made it 14-0 with 13:31 left in the half. The touchdown marked the first time Mount Un- ion fell behind an opponent by 14 points since a 2005 loss to Ohio Northern University, the last time the Purple Raiders lost a regular season game.
Mount Union responded immediately. The Purple Raiders covered 70 yards in just five plays, with Cecil Short catching a Kurt Rocco pass for 27 yards. Three plays later the duo hooked up on a 19 yard scoring pass, and Herm Timmersjo's PAT cut the margin to 14-7 Whitewater at 11:30 in quarter two.
Ten plays and 65 yards later UW-W had the margin back up to 21-7. Donovan found Coppage on a screen for 28 yards to take the ball to the one, and on the next play Coppage ran it in. The score was Coppage's 33rd of the season and 54th of his career, adding to his school and Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference records. Schebler made it 21-7 at 7:27.
148
As you would expect from the defending champion, MU came right back. A 52 yard Rocco to Kyle Miller pass set up a Rocco to Wes Ryder two yard scoring pass. Timmersjo's kick made it 21-14 Whitewater with 4:33 left in the half.
Like a heavyweight fight UW-W got up off the canvas (turf). Donovan completed all seven of his passes, the last one to Rusch for the score. Schebler put the lead back at fourteen, 28-14 with 0:52 left in the half. The score broke the school and WIAC records for touchdowns (84, was 83 in 2005) and points (625, was 617 in 2005).
At the half Whitewater's point total was already more than Mount Union had given up in a game, not just a half, was Whitewater's 31-21 Stagg Bowl win in 2007. The Warhawks converted on 9-9 third downs in the half. The Warhawks totaled 291 yards to 182 for the Purple Raiders. Donovan hit 17-22 for 224 yards in the first two periods.
"It was a combination of me wanting to play my best, the receivers making catches, the line playing great, and our coaches calling the right plays," Donovan said.
Mount Union's first possession of the second half began at their 23. Rocco hit Cecil Shorts, who caught two scoring passes in last year's game, from 23 yards out at 9:59, with Timmersjo's kick again cutting the margin to one touchdown, 28-21.
Not only the scoring margin was closer after three quarters. Whitewater's still led in total offense, but the difference was down to 369-329.
On third play of the fourth quarter Mount Union's Alex Ferrara picked off a pass at the Whitewater 31. Five plays later Rocco ran it in from five yards out and the extra point tied the game 28-28 with 12:08 left.
UW-W had not given up 28 points in any game this season, with a 58-21 win over UW-La Crosse Novem- ber 14 the most previously. The Warhawks had not yielded this many points since a 30-27 win over Willamette November 29, 2008 in a second round NCAA playoff win.
With the momentum seemingly turning UW-W senior defensive back Paul Wick broke the trend with a fumble recovery at the MU 49.
"We didn't panic," UW-W senior linebacker Lane Olson said. We had to make plays because the offense was so hot."
Whitewater did not move the ball, and on taking over Mount Union moved to Whitewater's 31, where Lane Olson made one of those plays, forcing a fumble that #Matt McCulloch# recovered for the War- hawks at the 28 to end the drive.
Both teams went three and out, with a sack by Olson forcing the Purple Raiders to punt.
Whitewater's next possession began on the WW 42, and on the fifth play Coppage went 31 yards to put the Warhawks back on top at 1:17.
It was fitting that Jeff Schebler, the all-time career kick scoring leader in NCAA (all divisions), ended the scoring with a 44 yard field goal with 0:26 left for the 38-28 win.
149
Mount Union totaled more yards than UW-W, 471-467, but the Warhawks limited the Purple Raiders to 88 yards rushing and a 2.8 average per carry. Whitewater controlled the ball 33:52 to 26:08, and the War- hawk offensive line, which allowed just nine sacks coming in, did not allow a sack in the game. Warhawk defenders totaled five sacks.
Coppage, who rushed 22 times for 111 yards, was named the Stagg Bowl Most Outstanding Player. Do- novan, in the process of setting the school record for passing accuracy (percentage) completed 26-40 for 323 yards. Rusch caught eight passes for 109 yards. Senior linebacker Kyle Supianoski led both teams with 13 tackles, eight solo. He added a sack and 1.5 tackles for a loss. Olson contributed nine tackles (five solo), also with a sack and 1.5 tackles for a loss.
Rocco completed 23-39 for 383 yards to lead Mount Union. Shorts was on the end of ten of those pass- es, totaling 185 yards. Terrance Morring rushed 22 times for 88 yards for the Purple Raiders. Linebacker Sam Kershaw topped his team with ten tackles, three solo.
For the first time in school history UW-Whitewater won 15 games. The Warhawks have had just four un- defeated and untied seasons since the school began playing football in 1889. The 1894 team went 1-0, 6 -0 in 1914. and 6-0 again in 1950.

2010 Salem, Va.- You don't mess with Oreos. You don't change the formula for Coke. And UW-Whitewater didn't change what got it a sixth consecutive Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference championship, a sixth straight NCAA III playoff berth, and a sixth appearance in the Amos Alonzo Stagg Bowl. In the end, it also resulted in the Warhawks thirtieth consecutive win, longest in NCAA football -- and the NCAA III championship with a 31-21 win over the University of Mount Union Saturday in the 2010 Stagg Bowl at Salem Stadium in Salem, Virginia.
If fans were paying attention, the first quarter was like the geysers at Yellowstone. Most of the time it didn't seem like anything of note was happening, but there was a portent of things to come.
Mount Union took the opening drive from their 24 to Whitewater's 29. Facing a second and 10, Mount QB Matt Piloto threw a ball into the right corner that Ryan Wenkman (Wisconsin Dells/Wisconsin Dells) intercepted at the one. Defense pulls one out. (Remember the formula.)
After the Raider defense forced a three and out, and Mount taking Whitewater's punt at the UW-W 44, the interception may have turned out to be as effective as a punt. Mount moved to the Whitewater 19, but a 35 yard field goal attempt was wide left.
After the miss Whitewater started at its 20, and six plays later junior running back Levell Coppage (Oak Park, IL/Oak Park) broke a 54 yard run for a touchdown, with Eric Kindler’s (Germantown/Germantown) kick making it 7-0 with 4:35 left in the quarter. (Don't forget, the formula.)
Mount's next drive moved the ball twenty yards to midfield, but Matt McCulloch picked off Piloto pass and returned it to the Whitewater 48. It was McCulloch's team-high seventh interception, tied for fourth in the UW-W record book.
Mount Union's defense forced a three and out, but UW-W punter Kris Rosholt (Reedsburg/ Reedsburg) booted a 44 yard punt that Cecil Shorts fair caught at the three yard line. For all practical purposes that ended the first quarter, Whitewater leading just 7-0, but the formula already in place.
Whitewater was 1-5 passing, Mount was 5-13 with two interceptions.
After Rosholt's punt the Warhawk defense did not give up a yard in three plays, and Mount's punter shanked the ball out of bounds at his own 28. Kindler converted on that opportunity with a 30 yard field goal with 12:59 in the second, making it 10-0 Whitewater.
Whitewater's next drive ended unexpectedly, with the Raider's forcing a rare Coppage fumble, recovering it at the Warhawk 40. Two plays later Mount QB Jeremy Piloto hit Kyle Miller with a 39 yard scoring strike and the conversion cut Whitewater's lead to 10-7 with 10:44 left in the second.
With the momentum changing, Mount made it shift 180 when all-American defensive end Lambert Budzinski picked off a pass at Whitewater's 32 and rambled down to the four. Two Jeremy Murray rush- es and a PAT gave Mount it's first lead, 14-10, still with 9:40 left in the period. With that score UW-W faced its largest deficit of the season (twice having trailed by three points previously).
Less than three minutes later that "largest deficit of the season" went by the board, as Mount moved the ball 76 yards in four plays, with Piloto hitting 2009 D3football.com Player of the Year Cecil Shorts with a 54 yard pass to put Mount up 21-10 -- and there was still 6:50 before halftime. 152
It didn't take UW-W long to show their resilience, taking the kickoff and marching 65 yards on eight plays. Coppage carried the ball six times for 40 yards on the drive, including the last 11 for the score. Mount Union 21, Whitewater 17 with 2:46 on the clock.
The Warhawks weren't done responding, taking their next possession at their own 23, and covering 77 yards in just 1:01 to regain the lead 24-21. Lee Brekke (Sun Prairie/Sun Prairie) found Tyler Hu- ber (Mukwonago/North Prairie) in the end zone for the score, Huber's first TD of the year and just his fifth catch of the season. (No one would know it at the time, but since it was the game winning points, Huber, a sophomore, may be hard pressed to make a more important catch in his next two years.)
And that, after scoring a total of seven points in the first quarter, ended the wild 38 point scoring on- slaught of the second quarter.
Coming out of the locker room after halftime fans might have expected to see some more flashing lights in the third quarter, but not if they had followed UW-W in the playoffs. The Warhawk defense has been lights out after halftime, adjusting and holding opponents at bay -- and even though it was a quality op- ponent in the national title game, it wasn't any different in Salem Stadium.
Mount's possessions in the third went: three and out, interception by Steve McCollom (Farmington, MI/ Shrine), and 13 yards. Mount was equally stingy, ending one Warhawk threat with an interception at the Raiders' ten yard line. Meanwhile Whitewater's offensive line, rightfully lauded all year, continued to pound away, giving Coppage and Booker Stanley (Milwaukee/Whitefish Bay) twelve carries in the quarter and controlling field position.
If you've followed the Warhawks, you can see what's coming. Start of the fourth, and Mount goes minus three yards, Whitewater gets the ball and Rosholt again pins them deep with a punt that rolls out at the one yard line. Mount decided to try to break the stalemate by moving Shorts to quarterback, but Steve McCollom (Farmington, MI/Shrine) forced Shorts to fumble and recovered the ball for UW-W at the Whitewater 49.
Whitewater pounded Coppage into the defense five of the next six plays, and kept field position when Rosholt put another punt out of bounds inside the 20. The Warhawk defense yielded 21 yards, but stalled the Raiders at Mount's 39, and took over after a punt at the Whitewater 21. Two more Coppage rushes set up the defining moment of the game, Coppage rushing through a gap for 75 yards and scoring the final points of the game with 2:34 left on the clock. The formula was completed when, again, the defense ended Mount Union's last drive with McCulloch's second interception of the game with just 54 seconds on the clock. The pick gives McCulloch a share of the school interception record, eight, a mark that has been reached three times previously, most recently by Ben Farley in 2007.
So here are the numbers in the formula: Offense; Wear down the opponent, rushing the ball 48 times for 312 yards, with Coppage setting a Stagg Bowl record with 299 on 39 carries (breaking former War- hawk Justin Beaver's record set in 2007, 31 carries for 249 yards) and earning the game's Most Valua- ble Player Award. Defense: Pick off four passes, recover a fumble, and force the opponent to go one dimensional after gaining just 45 yards on 26 attempts. And, unlike "New" Coke, the architects of the Warhawks' success aren't likely to tamper with the formula. If you've got Oreos in the cupboard, just get a glass of milk and enjoy.

2011 Salem, Va.- In real estate its location, location, location. In the 2011 Amos Alonzo Stagg Bowl it was field position, field position, field position as UW-Whitewater defeated the University of Mount Union 13-10 Stagg Bowl XXIX at Salem Stadium in Salem, Virgin- ia Friday night as the Warhawks won their third consecutive NCAA III championship and fourth in five years.
The Warhawks ran out of the tunnel surrounded by a smoke machine and fireworks overhead, unveiling new uniforms, black tops with silver numbers, but it was the same old result as the silver looked more like gold when the clock turned to 00:00.
Whitewater moved the ball on its opening drive, taking the ball from its 30 into Mount Union territory. With a third and three at the Mount 14,Matt Blanchard (Lake Zurich, IL/Lake Zurich)'s pass was picked off in the end zone by Chaz Jordan, his second of the season. The pick was just the fourth of the season for Blanchard, and his first since the third quarter of the October 22 game at UW-Oshkosh.
That was the most offense either team managed in the first quarter, with Mount gaining just 25 yards on two possessions in the quarter, and the Warhawks 79, 52 of those through the air on Blanchard's 5-7 passing.
Whitewater's third opportunity on offense began with the last play in the first quarter at their own 28. A key play on the drive was a pass interference penalty on Jordan that put the ball on the Mount 32. On the fourth play after the penalty Eric Kindler (Germantown/Germantown) booted a 44 yard field goal with 11:19 to put Whitewater in front 3-0. It also marked the sixth time in seven Stagg Bowl meetings that the Warhawks drew first blood. With the score coming on Whitewater's third possession it also marked the longest it has taken either team to score in the previous six meetings.
Mount Union's offense responded by moving the ball to Whitewater's 35, but Purple Raider QB Matt Piloto threw his eighth intercep- tion of the season, with UW-W's Chris Pendergast (Hartland/Arrowhead) coming down with his second interception of the season at the four yard line.
The Whitewater offense moved the ball out to the 48 to preserve field position, and Kris Rosholt (Reedsburg/Reedsburg)'s punt rolled dead at the 14 to pin the Raiders too deep for them to make anything happen with less than a minute left in the half.
It marked the third time in the seven Stagg Bowl meetings that the Warhawk defense had kept the Purple Raiders off the board in a half. Mount Union did not score in the second half of the 2010 game, making it four straight quarters UW-W has blanked UMU, and Mount did not score against UW-W in the first half of the 2007 game. The Warhawk defense has blanked opponents in 38 quarters this season, more than two-thirds of the play (56 quarters). Mount Union totaled 59 yards of offense in the first half, 28 on the ground on 11 carries. Whitewater totaled 142 yards, 60 rushing on 24 carries. Blanchard completed 8-10 passes for 82 yards.
Mount's opening drive of the second half didn't result in any points, but Brandon Mathie's punt was downed at the three in a game where field possession gained in significance as the clock ticked.
The battle for field position worked out for the Purple Raiders as their defense held and Kris Rosholt (Reedsburg/Reedsburg)'s punt went out at the UMU 48.

It took just one play for Noah Timm (Two Rivers/Two Rivers) to negate that advantage with his team-leading eighth interception of the season, and Piloto's second of the game, to set up the Warhawks at their own 44. A wideout screen to Tyler Huber (Mukwonago/North Prairie) moved the ball into Raider territory, at the 42. A sack and a holding penalty moved it back onto the Whitewater side of the field, and after an incomplete pass Rosholt was called on again to pin Mount Union back, and the return yielded no yards and UMU took over at their 16.
On first down Warhawk linebacker Ryan Cortez (Palatine, IL/Palatine, IL) sacked Piloto back to the five yard line. And it got worse for the Purple Raiders, as Piloto was swarmed at the goal line as he tried to pass, forcing a fumble that Cole Klotz (Elm Grove/New Berlin Eisenhower) recovered at the one. One play later Levell Coppage (Oak Park, IL/Oak Park) scored the 109th rushing touch- down of his career and Eric Kindler (Germantown/Germantown)'s kick made it 10-0 with 4:02 left in the third quarter.
The Purple Raiders used 17 plays to move from their 27 to the Whitewater one, and when the UW-W defense denied the end zone Tyler Almeida's 19 yard field goal put Mount Union on the board with 11:23 left in the game and Whitewater leading 10-3.
An exchange, with a poor Mount Union punt, favored Whitewater in the battle for field position, setting up the Warhawks at the Mount 43.
Whitewater inched the ball down the field, using seven plays to set up Kindler for a 30-yard field goal that made it 13-3 Whitewater with 5:34 remaining.
Mount Union's next drive broke the pattern, both because the drive went 72 yards and because one offensive play made a differ- ence. Mount started on their 28, with Piloto connecting with Chris Denton on the longest offensive play of the game, a 33-yard pass that moved the Purple Raiders to Whitewater's 19. Four plays later Piloto hit A.J. Claycomb with an eight yard pass and the PAT shortened Whitewater's lead to 13-10 with 3:20 left in the game.
Whitewater went three and out, and it may have been appropriate that Rosholt rolled his punt out of bounds at the Mount Union 16 and the Purple Raiders got the ball back with 2:09 on the clock.
Mount faced a fourth and two at their twenty, and the Raiders kept their hopes alive with a short pass to the sidelines that gained the first down and stopped the clock. But no more. The Warhawks did not give up another yard, and a fourth and ten pass at- tempt was incomplete. Whitewater took over at the Purple Raider 34 with just over a minute left, and a third consecutive Amos Alonzo Stagg Bowl trophy was headed back to Whitewater.
The Warhawk defense, the number one defense in the Division III playoffs, even with shutouts in two of four playoff games, may have come up with its best performance of the season. Mount Union was limited to 49 yards rushing on 27 attempts, and other than one play, kept Purple Raider receivers in front of them, content to limit yardage and extend the field.
UW-Whitewater also won the turnover battle, with one given up and three taken by Warhawk defenders. UW-W rolled through the five game playoffs with one turnover, while opponents gave up the ball 12 times.
In 39 Stagg Bowls a team has won three consecutive Stagg Bowls four times. Augustana College won four crowns (1983-1986), Mount Union did it twice (1996-1998 and 2000-2002) – and now UW-Whitewater joins that elite group.
Statistically, linebacker Kyle Wismer (Spring Grove, IL/Richmond-Burton) led Whitewater with 10 tackles and 1.5 tackles for a loss. Fellow 'backer Ryan Cortez (Palatine, IL/Palatine, IL) had nine tackles, a sack, and two tackles for a loss. Sophomore defen- sive end Loussaint Minett (Whitewater/Whitewater) picked the biggest stage for a breakout game, earning Stagg Bowl Most Valua- ble Player honors. Minett, a hometown Whitewater High School product, was credited with three tackles, a sack, a tackle for a loss, a quarterback hurry – and the key fumble forced.
The win extended Whitewater's win streak, the longest active string in college football, to 45 games, three consecutive 15-0 sea- sons, also the fifth longest win streak in the history of NCAA football, two short of tying the University of Oklahoma's 47 game win streak compiled under Bud Wilkinson 1953-57.
