With Carroll's credentials, it seemed unlikely that the 'Cats would have a record-setting day on defense .. The Saints came into the game ranked second nationally among NAIA schools averaging 595 yards per game. Remarkably, however, CWU held the Saints to only eight yards to set CFA and school records for fewest yards allowed in a single-game.

Carroll completed just one of 16 passes in the game and was O-for-15 on th ird-down opportunities. College Park THE COACHES

Mike Rasmussen (Michigan State, 1972) is com­ pleting his first decade as the head coach at Saint Apartments Mary's. Now in his 1O 'h season, Rasmussen (pic­ tured) has a career record of 53-40-1 . A year ago, the Gaels posted a 2-8 mark. John Zamberlin (Pacific Lutheran, 1979) is in his third season at CWU and has a 13-1 O career mark. He previously spent nine seasons as an assistant at Massachusetts (1987-90) , Eastern Washington (1992- 94) and Richmond (1995-96). Zamberlin played seven seasons in the NFL with the (1979-82) and (1983-85). Last year he guided, Central to a 7-4 record and into the quarterfinal round of th e NAIA national playoffs. • Swimming Pool •1 & 2 Bedroom Units GAME NOTES •Month to Month Lease EX COUG, LIN FIELD PLAYER ON GAEL COACHING STAFF: Among the assistant coaches on Saint Mary's staff is Ryan McShane, who was a starter on Washington State's 1997 Pac10 championship team.

It is unlikely the Gaels will set a single-game road attendance record today. In 1946, Being Ranked No. 1 in CFA in Rushing: "We're very deep at the running they played before 92,976 fans in the L.A. Coliseum against UCLA. Last back position. Murphy and Conley are an outstanding 1-2 tandem and year, Saint Mary's entire season attendance for 1 O games was 33,862. (Donovan) Dashiell and (James) Canada are also outstanding backs. We've got a young offensive line, but they continue to get better each week." FROM THE BAY AREA: Saint Mary's College is located in the East Bay in the city of Moraga, just a 30-minute drive from San Francisco. It is situated On Saint Mary's: "They have the capability to be an explosive team, but on a 46.6 square-mile peninsula bounded on the west by the Pacific Ocean, they've been shooting themselves in the foot with mistakes. They have on the north by the Golden Gate Strait and from north to east by the San they ability to run as well as throw the football." Francisco Bay. ..And since you asked? A "Gael", according to Webster's dictionary is "the Celtic peoples, especially the Irish." The college was dubbed with that moniker by a San Francisco sportswriter following a 26-7 win over California during the 1926 season. CONFERENCE

From our Japanese Garden to the Chimpanzee and Human Communication Institute (CHCI) and to downtown museums and galleries, the Kittitas Valley offers numerous adventures. As a residential university in Ellensburg, we provide living, dining and health care facilities and opportunities for recreation, intramurals, performing and fine arts, sporting events, dances, guest speakers, classic films and seminars - all of which supplements learning, our primary focus. Teacher training at CWU traces its history to 1891, when we opened as Ellensburg Normal School. Now, about 500 CWU students graduate with a teacher education major each year. While about 1,000 students make progress toward a teaching degree at any one time, many other CWU programs excel as well. For example, CWU enrolls the largest number of music majors in the state and graduates more music education majors than any other institution in the Northwest. CWU's undergraduate accounting program is the second largest in the state. In a recent certified public accounting examination, graduates from CWU's Lynnwood Center scored the top three scores in Washington. In all, CWU offers more than 100 majors and eight pre-professional programs for undergraduates. Students gain a broad-based liberal arts foundation through our General Education curriculum. More than 125 international and student exchange programs create exciting options for students, who might be interested in spending a quarter or more in Greece, Japan, China, Chile, Mexico, France, Australia or one of many other locations. Closer to home, students take advantage of our six university centers in SeaTac, Lynnwood, Steilacoom, Yakima, Wenatchee and Moses Lake. Especially attractive and accessible to students with work and/or family responsibilities, the cen­ ters offer upper division coursework leading to bachelor's degrees in a variety of disciplines, for those who have completed their first two years of college study. About 20 percent of our graduates each year attend the centers. Approximately 61 percent of CWU students in Ellensburg or at the westside centers come from counties in the 1-5 corridor, between Clark County A north to Whatcom County. For the past two de­ == cades, about 55 percent of the Ellensburg enroll­ ·-·~--~ ·~ ment originated from west of the Cascades. ~JI~) ... Annually, an average of 2,040 new transfer =~I!.

In all, CWU has about 8,000 students at the Ellensburg campus and 1, 100 juniors and se­ niors at its six university centers. CWU is recognized for many of its programs, faculty, staff and students. For three straight years it has been included in "The Student Guide to America's 100 Best College Buys."
