The Grizzlies recorded their second title. In the process, Joe Glenn became the first head coach to win NCAA championships in two divisions. Glenn added a Division I-AA crown to the Division II titles he achieved at Northern Colorado in 1996 and 1997. Vince Huntsberger and Dave DeCoite played major roles in holding Furman scoreless until the game’s final play. Huntsberger topped Montana, which blanked Northern Iowa in the semifinals, in tackles with 10. DeCoite knocked down a third-down pass attempt that forced a Furman failed field-goal try. Both Grizzlies intercepted passes in the fourth quarter to help thwart a Furman comeback. Yo Humphrey, who carried the ball 30 times for 142 yards, scored on a two-yard run in the second quarter for Montana’s only touchdown. Chris Snyder booted two field goals for the Grizzlies. Montana finished with a 15-1 record, its only loss coming to Division I-A Hawaii. Furman ended the year with a 12-3 mark.

NCAA I-AA Football Championship History 1978 At the 72nd NCAA Convention (January 1978) in Atlanta, Ga., the membership voted to establish the Division I-AA Football Championship and a statistics program for the division. The format for the first I-AA champi- onship, held in Wichita Falls, Texas, was a single-elimination, four-team tournament. Florida A&M defeated Massachusetts, 35-28, in the title game. The game was televised by ABC. 1981 The championship expanded to include eight teams in a single-elimination tournament. 1982 The championship expanded to include 12 teams. Eight teams played first-round games at campus sites, and the top four teams, seeded by the Division I-AA Football Committee, received byes. 1986 The championship field expanded to its current format of 16 teams with each team playing a first-round game. 1987 Northeast Louisiana defeated Marshall, 43-42, in the closest game in championship history. 1989 A then-record 25,725 fans watched Georgia Southern down Stephen F. Austin, 37-34, in the championship game at Allen E. Paulson Stadium in Statesboro, Ga. 1990 Georgia Southern won its fourth I-AA championship, adding to its titles in 1985, 1986 and 1989. 1991 Youngstown State won its first national championship with a 25-17 victory over Marshall. Penguin head coach Jim Tressel joined his father, Lee, as the only father-son combination to win NCAA football titles. Lee Tressel won the 1978 Division III championship at Baldwin-Wallace. 1992 A then-record crowd of 31,304 in Huntington, W.Va., saw Marshall return the favor with a 31-28 win over Youngstown State for its first I-AA title. 1993 The I-AA championship provided for a maximum field of 16 teams. Six member conferences (Big Sky, Gateway, Ohio Valley, Southern, Southland and Yankee) were granted automatic qualification for their respective winners. Youngstown State won its second I-AA title with a 17-5 victory over Marshall before a crowd of 29,218 in Huntington, W. Va. 1994 Youngstown State won its third national title in four years with a 28-14 victory over Boise State. 1995 Montana won its first Division I-AA title before a championship record crowd of 32,106 in Huntington, W.Va. 1996 Marshall, making its fifth visit to the championship game since 1991, won its second Division I-AA title with a 49-29 victory over defending champion Montana before 30,052 in Huntington, W. Va. 1997 Youngstown State won its fourth national title in the 1990s with a 10-9 victory over McNeese State in Chattanooga, Tennessee. 1999 Georgia Southern closed out the century with another national title, posting a 59-24 victory over Youngstown State. The Eagles won their fifth title, surpassing Youngstown State’s four championships and taking over the division lead in crowns. DIVISION I-AA CHAMPIONSHIP—CHAMPIONSHIP HISTORY 457 2000 Georgia Southern rallied past Montana, 27-25, to claim back-to-back titles for the third time in its Division I- AA history. 2001 Montana won a defensive duel with Furman, 13-6, to claim its second title.

    VIKING BASKETBALL HISTORY VIKING BASKETBALL HISTORY ortland State basketball began along with the formation of Vanport Extension Center in P 1946. John Jenkins was the first head coach for Vanport that year. He was followed by Joe Hol- land, then Arba Ager, who led Vanport to its first 20-win season in 1949-50. That same year, Vanport became a member of the Oregon Collegiate Con- ference. Little reference material remains from the early days of Viking basketball, however the Vikings pieced together six wins in their first season of competition. Originally a two-year college, Vanport played four-year schools, junior colleges and some AAU teams. Coach Arba Ager led Vamport to Oregon Collegiate Conference titles in 1951 and 1952. Ager won more than 60 percent of his games in five seasons as head coach. Sharkey Nelson took over the Vikings in 1953 and began a 12-year run that included three OCC titles and two trips to the NAIA playoffs before the end of the decade. It was not until 1955 that Vanport became Portland State College, a four-year school. During that time, the Vikings still scrambled for a home John Nelson (above) was the first Vi- venue, playing many games in high school gyms, in particular, the closely located Lincoln High School. king to score 2,000 career points... until Paul Poetsch, John Winters, Jack Parker, Jack Freeman Williams (left) arrived a decade Viskov and Jim Perkin were just a few of the stars later.
