Pioneer Football League Announces Postseason Honors, 18Th All-PFL Squad 1818 Chouteau Avenue St. Louis, Missouri 63103 (314) 421-2268 FAX (314) 421-3505 A NCAA Division I FCS Conference Contact: Cody Bush Phone: (931) 221-7561 Pioneer Football League announces postseason honors, 18th All-PFL squad ST. LOUIS – Pioneer Football League officials announced Tuesday the winners of its postseason honors and the All-Pioneer Football League first and second teams. All selections were made by the league’s coaches, who were not permitted to vote for their own players. Dayton and Jacksonville each won a share of the 2010 PFL regular-season title after surviving scares in their final regular-season contests. It is Jacksonville’s second league title after winning the 2008 title outright. Dayton wins at least a share of the title for the 11th time, repeating as league champions after sharing the 2009 title. Dayton quarterback Steve Valentino was named the league’s Offensive Player of the Year, Drake defensive lineman Dain Taylor was the league’s Defensive Player of the Year and Dayton head coach Rick Chamberlin was named the league’s Coach of the Year. The league’s freshman awards went to Davidson quarterback Jonathan Carkhuff and Jacksonville linebacker Mike Klein, who were named the league’s Offensive and Defensive Freshman of the Year, respectively. Valentino becomes just the second player in league history to be named its Offensive Player of the Year in back-to-back seasons, joining San Diego quarterback Josh Johnson who accomplished the feat in 2005-06. A three-time All-PFL first-team selection, he led Dayton to an 8-0 mark in PFL play – he was 15-1 in his two seasons as a starter in PFL contests – to earn a share of the league’s regular-season title and a 10-1 overall mark. Valentino finished the regular season ranked 14th among FCS players with 266.4 total offensive yards. He was Dayton’s top rushing threat and ranked seven nationally among FCS quarterbacks with 64.7 rushing yards per game. Valentino also ranked fourth in both passing yardage (201.6 ypg) and pass efficiency rating (135.0). Taylor wins the league’s Defensive Player of the Year honor after leading a Drake defensive front line that limited opponents to less than 100 rushing yards per game. The Bulldogs held opponents to 94.2 rushing yards and 20.5 points per game this season, both ranking second among PFL defensive units. Taylor finished just 30th in total tackles (5.4 pg) but made a number of those tackles in the backfield. He ranked second in tackles for loss (2.18 pg) and third in quarterback sacks (1.23 pg) this season. Carkhuff took over at starting quarterback in week three, becoming the first true freshman to lead Davidson since the 2004 campaign. He became the ninth Wildcats quarterback to throw for more than 2,000 yards, finishing with 197 completions for 2,002 yards. Klein ranked among the league’s top 50 in tackles (4.3 pg) in his first season of action. He finished the season with 5.5 tackles for loss and 2.5 quarterback sacks in nine games. Klein was part of a defensive unit that ranked second in scoring defense (20.5 ppg) and rushing yards allowed (106.5 ypg). Chamberlin wins Coach of the Year honors for the first time in his third season at Dayton. He led the Flyers to a share of their 11th PFL title, posting an 8-0 PFL record and a 10-1 overall finish. In his three seasons at the helm, Dayton has posted a better PFL record each season, starting at 6-2 in 2008, improving to 7-1 with a share of the PFL title in 2009 and this season’s 8-0 mark. The 18th All-PFL squads are highlighted by six unanimous selections. Jacksonville had three players receive unanimous ac- climation, including senior running back Rudell Small who was a unanimous first-team All-PFL selection for the third consecutive season. Jacksonville junior wide receiver Josh Philpart was a unanimous first-team All-PFL selection for the second consecutive year. Other unanimous first-team honorees were Jacksonville offensive lineman Leonard Payton, Drake fullback Steve Platek, Valparaiso punter Greg Wood and San Diego defensive lineman Mario Kurn. Additionally, the All-PFL first-team selections include 10 repeat honorees from the 2009 All-PFL first team, as denoted in the following listing. - more - www.pioneer-football.org 2010 Pioneer Football League Postseason Awards Steve Valentino Dain Taylor Rick Chamberlin Jonathan Carkhuff Mike Klein Dayton Drake Dayton Davidson Jacksonville OFFENSIVE DEFENSIVE COACH FRESHMAN FRESHMAN PLAYER PLAYER OF THE YEAR OFFENSIVE PLAYER DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE YEAR OF THE YEAR OF THE YEAR OF THE YEAR 2010 All-Pioneer Football League First Team as selected by the league’s coaches Pos.

LOUIS, Mo. – The Pioneer Football League named 38 student-athletes to its Preseason All-Pioneer Football League Teams Wednesday, including 29 returning First Team All-PFL selections. Returning players named to the league’s 2020-21 All-PFL Teams were placed automatically on the 2020 Preseason All-PFL team in order of head coaches voting. In addition, the 2021 preseason team includes student-athletes from the University of Dayton and Marist College who would have appeared on the 2020 Preseason All-PFL Team. Preseason favorite and defending champion Davidson has five preseason selections: running back Dylan Sparks, fullback Coy Williams, offensive lineman Khalil Miller, defensive lineman Jonathan Hammond, and linebacker Jake Alexander. Sparks, Williams, and Miller led a Wildcats offensive unit that led all FCS programs in rushing yards (280.0 yards per game). Hammond returns after earning Freshman Defensive Player of the Year accolades after posting 9.5 tackles for loss and four sacks in his seven-game debut campaign. San Diego, picked to finish second in Tuesday’s PFL Preseason Coaches’ Poll, saw seven of its student-athletes earn preseason recognition: wide receiver Michael Carner, tight end Derek Kline, offensive lineman DJ Wright, linebackers Kyle Bilchik and Kama Kamaka as well as defensive backs Michael Hawkins and Hunter Nichols. The Toreros five defensive selections paced a defensive that permitted a league-low 266.0 total yards per game and tallied a league- best 3.17 sacks per game over six outings.

  • Ball Fair? a Quantitative Examination
    Ball Fair? A Quantitative Examination of Which Universities Succeed In the Men’s NCAA Tournament By: Wilfred T. Reilly Southern Illinois University An Occasional Paper Of The Paul Simon Public Policy Institute Paper Ten March 2008 Abstract Mid-major American universities spend a great deal of money on intercollegiate athletics. For example, the University of Buffalo recently spent $10-20 million to join NCAA Division One, and Southern Illinois University plans to spend $80 million to improve athletic facilities. Much of this money is spent because coaches and administrators see athletic success as a path to national recognition for their institutions. High-prestige competitions like the men’s NCAA basketball tournament are perceived as fair games that all schools have a chance to win, and regional universities invest millions in attempts to win them. This paper tests the logic of this behavior, by examining the success rates of several categories of schools over the past 10 NCAA tournaments. In fact, when examined statistically, the tournament is not a fair game. The last 10 champions have been wealthy universities from elite football conferences, as have 131 of the past 160 Sweet Sixteen entrants. Only one mid-major program has made the Final Four during the past decade. Colleges and regional universities have little chance of winning the tournament, and should consider reevaluating how they spend their limited budgets. 2 Introduction and Literatures In Illinois and throughout the Midwest, mid-sized universities are making significant investments in intercollegiate athletics. After enjoying basketball and football success during the past decade, Southern Illinois University decided to commit $80 million to the “Saluki Way” campus development plan (Southern Illinoisan, August 4, 2007).
