Charleston Postgame Notes• Charleston scored on three plays of 40 yards or more to help defeat Fairmont State, 30-10.• FSU remained winless on the road in 2012.• Ryland Newman’s punt return for a touchdown was his first this season and the third of his career. According to available FSU records, the three career punt returns for a TD are a school record.• Johnny Dearstine’s 31-yard field goal was his third this season. • Daniel Monroe’s 88 yards rushing against UC were his second highest total this year. His 49-yard rush was the longest of the season.• Matt Wilmer led FSU with four catches for 63 yards. His 31-yard reception was his longest of the season.• Chris Kish dropped three punts inside the 20-yard line for FSU. • Jephte Leveille and Ryan Watts each notched sacks for the Falcons.• Scott Davidson’s interception was his second this season and the fifth of his career.

Notable• Since returning to the lineup after an injury, Garrett Davis has led the team in tackles in each of his three starts this season.• FSU leads the league in punt return yardage with 205. WV Wesleyan is second with 178 punt return yards this season.• The Falcons are third in the league in time of possession averaging 30:50 minutes of pos-session per game.• Fairmont State boasts two WVIAC Special Teams Players of the Week this season in Matt Wilmer and Ryland Newman.• FSU is without a rushing touchdown after five games this season. Daniel Monroe, who was among the league leaders with 13 rushing touchdowns, has not scored this season. WVWC has only one rushing touchdown after six games this year.• Twelve different players have recorded catches for Fairmont State this year.• Fairmont State’s defense has done well against teams not allowing red zone touchdowns. Opponents have scored TDs in just five of their 13 attempts (38%) inside the 20-yard line.• FSU is -4 in turnover margin this year. • Fairmont State is 2-of-31 in third and long (10 yards or more) situations this season.

Airing It Out• Fairmont State has turned to junior college transfer Bobby Vega to lead the team this year, and Vega has responded.• Vega has two 300-yard passing games in just four games this year. He is the first FSU quar-terback to have multiple 300-yard passing games in a season since Bryan Harman (2001) and the first FSU QB to have multiple 300-yard passing games in a career since Bryan Harman (1998-01).• Vega’s game vs. West Liberty was record-setting in a variety of ways. Vega set the school record for passing attemps with 67, surpassing the previous record by nine attempts. His 361 yards passing against the Hilltoppers were tied for the seventh-most in a single game by a FSU quarterback, and were the most passing yards by a Falcon quarterback not named “Har-man” or “Furgason.” His 83-yard pass TD completion to C.J. Goodwin was tied for the third-longest passing play in school history. Vega’s 34 completions in the game were just three shy of the FSU single-game mark. • Vega is second in the WVIAC in passing (223 ypg) and total offense (204.2). WVWC’s Nate Montana is the leader in both of those categories.

Scouting WV Wesleyan• WV Wesleyan comes into Saturday’s game with a 2-4 overall mark and a 1-2 record in WVIAC play.• The Bobcats gave up 27 second half points in a 37-6 loss at Shepherd last week.• WVWC is third in the country in sacks (4.33) and second in the country in tackles for a loss (11.00). The Bobcats lead the conference in both categories. FSU is surrendering 3.8 sacks per game.• Jonas Celian is in the top ten in the country in sacks averaging 1.17 per game. Celian has recorded eight sacks this season.• Brian Vukela and Jesse Robertson are both in the top 10 in the country in tackles for a loss with both averaging over two per contest.

fightingfalcons.com Twitter: @fsufalcons

• Two Wesleyan quarterbacks have seen extended action this season. Nate Montana has made five starts and has thrown for 1,148 and nine touchdowns this season. He missed last week’s game at Shepherd due to injury. Jeremy Musselman has made one start and four appearances for the Bobcats this season. He has tallied 521 yards and three touchdowns this season. Both quarterbacks have thrown three interceptions this season.• WV Wesleyan has the best passing attack in the WVIAC, averaging 282 yard per game through the air. • Malcolm Yowk leads the Wesleyan ground game with 229 yards on 63 carries. The Bobcats average just 54.17 rushing yards per game which is ranked 150 out of 158 teams in the country. The only player to rush for a touchdown for the Bobcats this season is starting quarter-back Nate Montana.• The Bobcats have six receivers with double digit receptions this season. Lavaughn Hughes has led the group with 26 catches for 394 yards and a pair of scores. Chase Blackwell leads the team with four touchdown catches this season.• Saturday’s game should feature two of the more dynamic return men in the game in WVWC’s Stephen Knox and FSU’s Matt Wilmer. Knox is the best in the league and 14th in the country in kickoff returns with 29.1 yards per return.

Something Special• Matt Wilmer put together a remarkable junior season as a return specialist for the Fal-cons. Wilmer led the country in yards per punt return with 23.0. He was named Super Region 1 Special Teams Player of the Year and second team All-America by Don Hansen’s Football Gazette. He was a first team All-WVIAC selection and second team Daktronics All-Atlantic Region honoree.• This season he currently leads the league and is 19th in the country in average punt return yards (12.85) and is 21st in average kick return yards (27.60).• In the opener against Clarion, Wilmer clearly had the attention of the Golden Eagles. Clari-on’s five punts were angled away from Wilmer and went out of bounds.• The electricity showed up against Glenville State as Wilmer notched a 100-yard kickoff re-turn for a touchdown, the first of his career. For his play, he was named WVIAC Special Teams Player of the Week.• Against Bowie State, Wilmer had 121 all-purpose yards (17 receiving, 58 kick return and 43 punt return).• He once again led the team in all-purpose yards against Charleston with 126. • He leads the team and is third in the WVIAC in all-purpose yards with an average of 130.4 all-purpose yards per game. He is the only player in the league with at least 100 total yards in receiving yards, punt return yards and kick return yards.• Wilmer has accounted for 13 of Fairmont State’s 34 plays of 20 yards or more this season.• Ten of his 13 catches have gone for either a first down or touchdown this season.

Receiving Saint• FSU junior wide receiver Chris St. Hilaire, who had a strong sophomore season, has picked up where he left off last season.• Through five games, St. Hilaire has 29 catches for 341 yards and two touchdowns this sea-son. His career high for receptions in a season is 33 last year.• He is third in the league in receiving yards per game (68.2) and is fourth in the league in receptions per game (5.8).• He has two games of 100 yards or more receiving this season and four 100-yard receiving games for his career.• Sixteen of his 29 catches this year have gone for either a first down or touchdown. Six of those catches have come on third down.• For his career, he has 89 catches for 1,284 yards and is approaching the top 15 at FSU in career receiving yards (Khalid Dover is 15th with 1,466 yards).

Injury Report • FSU suffered a big blow by losing Dewey McDonald to injury during a preseason scrimmage. McDonald, an All-America candidate and NFL prospect, will likely redshirt the season and return to the Falcon lineup in 2013.• During the game against Clarion, McDonald’s replacement at the free safety position, Leatis Jones, was shaken up and his status for WV Wesleyan is doubtful. Bryan Wilson, a backup to McDonald for two seasons, is manning the free safety spot.• At the other safety position, Quincy Casimir suffered an injury to his ankle against Glenville State. He has missed the last two games before returning to the lineup two weeks ago in Charleston. • FSU junior wide receiver (and holder) Mark Sampson was injured at Charleston and is not available this week against WVWC. Backup quar-terback Tyler Pate will serve as the holder on special teams.• Fairmont State running backs Daniel Monroe, Shad Alexander and Colin Alford all missed the West Liberty game due to injury. Monroe returned to the lineup against Charleston, but Alford and Alexander were still sidelined.

fightingfalcons.com Twitter: @fsufalcons

“Stew” & JW• Fairmont State will be sporting “Stew” and “JW” stickers on the helmet this year in honor of alum Bill Stewart and Jack Wilson, who both passed away earlier this year.• Stewart will also be inducted into the Fairmont State Athletic Association Hall of Fame later this fall.• Stewart played for head coach Deacon Duvall in the early 1970s and was captain of the 1974 WVIAC championship team. He also got his coaching start as an assistant at Fairmont State.• Jack Wilson spent many years on the FSU sidelines working on the chain crew.

Preseason Notebook• Fairmont State will open the season without a player who has started a game at quar-terback at the NCAA Division II level. However, the Falcons will rely on Bobby Vega, a junior college transfer who threw for nearly 2,000 yards and 23 touchdowns last season at College of Dupage.• FSU lost its starting punter, place kicker, long snapper and holder from last year.• Fairmont State averaged 30 points per game last season -- the fifth highest season average in school history.• The Falcons return their leading rusher and scorer (Daniel Monroe), leading receiver (Chris St. Hilaire), leading tackler/TFL/sacks (Garrett Davis) and leading return man (Matt Wilmer). However, FSU lost several players “in the trenches.” The Falcons graduated two of its three starting defensive linemen, and two players on the offensive line. • Twelve different players recorded interceptions for the Falcons last season.

Last Year vs. WVWCWVWC 21, Fairmont State 14October 15, 2011 | Buckhannon, W.Va.BUCKHANNON, W.Va. -- West Virginia Wesleyan used 21 points in the second quarter to hold off Fairmont State, 21-14, on Saturday afternoon at Cebe Ross Field. Freshman Nevin Honeycutt started at quarterback in place of the in-jured Logan Moore. Honeycutt was 10-of-24 for 71 yards and was intercepted twice. Freshman Daniel Monroe racked 152 yards on the ground against the nation’s second-best rushing defense that came into the game allowing just 60 yards per game. Monroe scored both of Fairmont State’s touchdowns. WVWC’s Adam Neugebauer was 26-of-44 for 308 yards, with 230 of those coming in the first half. Keith Dickens rushed 15 times for 47 yards but found the end zone on two occasions. The game essentially came down to a wild second quarter that had all of the scoring in the game. The Falcons had the best opportunity to score in the first quarter, but Keenan missed from 44 yards out midway through the quarter. Honeycutt was picked off by the Bobcats, but then Raynell Hall re-turned the favor just four plays later at the 50-yard line to give FSU back the ball. From there, it was a heavy dose of Monroe as the first quarter ended, and Monroe continued on the drive and got the Falcons on the board first going in from one-yard out to make it 7-0. WVWC quickly countered as Neugebauer passed the Bobcats down to the four-yard line before Dickens did the honors to knot the game. The quick scoring pace continued as the Falcons again did most of its damage on the ground, and Monroe again found pay dirt, this time from five yards out to put the Falcons up 14-7. Neugebauer didn’t waste any time in tying the game as Meadows got loose for a 73-yard touchdown. Neugebauer would later march WVWC down the field, and again allowed Dickens to do the honors to put the Bobcats up 21-14 at the break. Monroe finished the half with 82 yards on the ground and two scores. Neugebauer paced the Bobcats with 15 completions for 230 yards. The teams played to a stale mate in the second half, with Fairmont State able to take four possessions into WV Wesleyan territory, but never able to get closer than the Bobcat 32-yard line. WVWC had several opportu-nities late in the fourth quarter to put the game away, but missed field goals from 25 and 41 yards away. The Falcons, however, were not able to come away with a late drive to send the game into overtime. WVWC held the edge in total offense, 364-241, but Fairmont State limited the Bobcats to their lowest point output of the season. Garrett Davis led the Falcons with nine total tackles (six solo), including three for a loss and a sack. Greg Underwood and Daniel Strosnider each contributed five tackles. Hall and Luke Black came up with interceptions.

Last Time vs. WVWC In FairmontFairmont State 45, #25 WV Wesleyan 14October 23, 2010 | Fairmont, W.VaFAIRMONT, W.Va. -- Logan Moore tossed three touchdowns and rushed for another to help lead Fairmont State to a 45-14 win over 25th-ranked WV Wesleyan on Saturday afternoon at Duvall-Rosier Field. Moore had 120 yards rushing and 121 passing to help pace the Falcon offense. The Falcons rolled up 272 yards on the ground while limiting WV Wesleyan to 130. In addition to Moore, Patrick Pinchinat added 65 yards on the ground, including a 35-yard touchdown scamper, Scott Victorio had 51 yards and Damon Waters had 28 yards on 11 carries. The Falcon defense sur-rendered 403 yards of total offense, but held the potent Bobcat offense 19 points below its scoring average on the season. Freshman Garrett Davis was a standout defensively for the Falcons notching eight solo tackles, including two for a loss and a sack, and returned a fumble 56 yards in the third quarter. Ryland Newman also added a defen-sive touchdown for the Falcons. Seven different receivers caught passes for the Falcons, led by four catches from Chris St. Hilaire and three by Waters. Perry Baker, Cody Reed and Eric Eitson had touchdown receptions. The Falcons scored first on their first possession with a 35-yard field goal from Frank Keenan, but Wesleyan promptly answered with an 11-play, 69-yard drive capped by a Adam Neugebauer toss to T.J. Benners in the back of the end zone. The Falcons answered back as Baker grabbed a 20-yard pass from Moore to put FSU back up 10-7 in the first quarter. The Falcons got some breathing room late in the second quarter as Reed took a screen pass and went 17 yards for the score. The Bobcats looked to get back into the game with a touchdown early in the third quarter from Lavaughn Hughes seven-yard touchdown run to make it 17-14. The Falcons would score the game’s next 28 points, starting with a 10-yard touchdown run from Moore. Pinchinat later broke free on the left side down the sideline 35 yards out for the score to make it 31-14. WV Wesleyan was threatening to score late in the third quarter and get back into the game, but Greg Underwood forced a fumble at the one that was scooped up by Davis and returned 56 yards. The Falcons cashed in with a slant pass to Eitson in traffic from 12 yards out. The Falcons iced the game with a 85-yard interception return for a touchdown from Ryland Newman.

CLARION, Pa. -- Clarion’s Ben Fiscus connected with Mark Nicholas on a 27-yard touchdown pass in the third quarter and the Golden Eagle defense pitched a shutout to defeat Fairmont State, 7-0, in the season-opener at Me-morial Stadium. Fiscus had an efficient night going 14-of-21 for 136 yards and a touchdown passing and added 77 yards on the ground to pace the Golden Eagle offense. Bobby Thomas added 80 yards on the ground for Clarion. Fairmont State quarterback Bobby Vega had a solid first outing in a Fal-con uniform connecting on 27-of-47 passes for 321 yards. He was intercepted twice. His favorite targets were Chris St. Hilaire who had eight catches for 108 yards and C.J. Goodwin who added six grabs for 55 yards. Clarion’s defense was led by Andrew Paronish who had six tackles, a fum-ble recovery, and a fourth quarter interception he returned for 27 yards. Fairmont State’s defense was paced by Scott Davidson who had eight to-tal tackles and Daniel Strosnider who had four tackles and interception. The Falcons held the edge in total offense, 355-291, but were penalized 11 times for 120 yards in the game. Clarion was flagged seven times for 95 yards. The Golden Eagles stifled the Fairmont State running game holding the Fal-cons to just 34 yards on 30 carries in the game. Neither team made it into the red zone until the third quarter when FSU got to the Clarion 17 on its initial drive of the half. However, a penalty and a sack stalled the drive and the Falcons had to settle for a punt. The Golden Eagles countered on the ensuing drive marching 84 yards down for the score as Fiscus found Nicholas in tight coverage on a 27-yard score. Clarion looked to put the game away late in the fourth quarter as it lined up for a field goal, but Scott Davidson came off the edge and blocked the at-tempt to give FSU one last chance on offense. The Falcons worked the way down to the Clarion 8-yard line, but were moved back on a holding play to the 15. Facing third-and-goal, Vega’s pass to St. Hilaire was low and incomplete. With just 22 seconds left, Vega heaved an attempt in the back of the end zone where the pass was batted down by Clarion’s Jason Peterson to preserve the victory for the Golden Eagles.

Notes• Quarterback Bobby Vega’s 321 yards passing vs. Clarion were the most by a quarterback in Lopez’s tenure as head coach. In fact, the 321 yards passing were the most by a Falcon quarterback since Oct. 27, 2001, when Bryan Harman threw for 354 yards against Concord. • Fairmont State was shutout for just the second time under offensive coordina-tor Bryan Fisher last week against Clarion. The last time the Falcons were held scoreless under Fisher was a 24-0 loss to UNC Pembroke in 2010.• FSU’s 7-0 loss to Clarion marked the first time that Fairmont State has lost when holding a team to under nine points under head coach Mike Lopez.• Clarion snapped a two-game losing streak to Fairmont State with its win over the Falcons.• For the third-straight year, the team with the most total offense lost the game.• The Fairmont State defense held Clarion to just 291 yards and did so with just one tackle for a loss of yards and no sacks.• Daniel Strosnider’s interception was the second of his career. The first inter-ception of his career came two seasons ago against Glenville State.• Fairmont State’s Johnny Dearstine handled the kicking duties for the Falcons against Clarion. His kickoff went to the end zone where it was returned, and his 42-yard field goal attempt had plenty of distance but missed wide right.

GLENVILLE, W.Va. -- Glenville State scored 34 first half points which proved to be more than enough in a 41-21 win over Fairmont State on Thursday night at Morris Stadium. The Pioneers racked up over 500 yards of total offense with 273 yards pass-ing and another 254 on the ground. Darold Hughes completed 13-of-20 passes for 258 yards and three touchdowns. Robert Jiles hauled in five passes for 142 yards, including touchdown receptions of 59 and 41 yards. Glenville State’s defense recorded four sacks and seven tackles for a loss in limiting Fairmont State to 196 yards of total offense. Shad Alexander led the way on the ground with 10 carries for 53 yards. Bobby Vega was 13-of-27 for 87 yards and two touchdown passes. Matt Wilmer provided a spark for the Falcons with a 100-yard kickoff return at the end of the first quarter for FSU. It was the first kickoff return for a touchdown in his career. Freshman linebacker Trevor Malnick led the Falcons defensively with six total tackles, including two for a loss. The Pioneers raced out to a quick 17-0 lead in the first quarter lead before the Falcons got on the board with Wilmer’s 100-yard kick return for a touch-down as the quarter expired. Wilmer took the kick two yards deep in the end zone and went to his left and darted through traffic for the score. The Falcons could not capitalize on the momentum, though, as the Pio-neers responded with a five-yard TD run from Quin Thornton. GSC added a field goal and a touchdown late in the quarter to give the Pioneers the big 34-7 cushion at the break. Glenville State got its only points of the second half on a 59-yard touchdown reception by Jiles from Hughes. On the play, the pass was deflected by two FSU defenders before finally being hauled in by Jiles to extend GSC’s lead to 41-7. Vega found Sampson in the back of the end zone on a short five-yard pass to start the fourth quarter to make it 41-14, and Vega later found Chris St. Hilaire for a seven-yard TD reception for the final points of the game and the 41-21 final.

Notes• Matt Wilmer’s 100-yard kick return for a touchdown was the first of his ca-reer. It was technically a 102-yard kick return, but NCAA statisical guidelines mandate the maximum yardage on any play is 100 yards. Jerome Hoes had a 101-kickoff return for Fairmont State in 1978, but the NAIA guidelines allowed for plays to be longer than 100 yards at that time. It was the first kickoff return for a touchdown for Fairmont State since Zack Page accomplished it in 2009 against WV State.• Freshman Shad Alexander led FSU in rushing with 10 carries for 53 yards. Dan-iel Monroe was held to under 100 yards rushing for the second-straight game.• Chris St. Hilaire’s touchdown reception was his first of the season and the seventh of his career.• Bobby Vega’s two touchdown passes were the first of his career at Fairmont State.• Mark Sampson’s touchdown catch was his first this season and fifth of his career.• GSC running back Rahmann Lee became just the second player in 13 games (dating back to last season) to rush for over 100 yards against Fairmont State.• The Pioneers had seven offensive plays go for 20 yards or more, including four of its touchdowns.• Freshman linebacker Trevor Malnick turned in a good performance for FSU with nine tackles, including two for a loss.

BOWIE, Md. -- Bowie State scored 24 unanswered points to beat Fairmont State in overtime on Saturday afternoon at Bulldogs Stadium. The Bulldogs erased a 17-0 fourth quarter deficit to force overtime and win the game. The Falcons scored the only points of the opening half when Johnny Dearstine made a 22-yard field goal after Fairmont State recovered a Bowie State fumble inside the BSU 15 yard line. Fairmont State extended the lead in the third quarter after Davidson blocked a Bulldog field goal attempt that was scooped up by Newman and returned 57 yards for the FSU touchdown. The Falcons then went ahead 17-0 early in the fourth quarter after Vega capped off a four-play, 42 yard drive with a touchdown pass to Collin Alford. The Bulldogs needed just over a minute to respond with their first points of the game to make it 17-7. FSU was forced to punt on its next possession, and BSU cashed in with a 24-yard field goal to make it 17-10 with six minutes remaining. The Falcons could only use over two minutes on their next pos-session, and a 10-yard punt set Bowie State up in excellent shape taking over at Fairmont State’s 40-yard line. McNeil then knotted the game with a one-handed grab to tie the score at 17-17. FSU did march down the field and had a chance to win the game in regula-tion, but Dearstine’s 29-yard field goal missed wide right as time expired. On the opening drive of overtime, Bowie State converted twice on third down to stay alive before Acker scored on a 12-yard touchdown reception. The Falcons were unable to respond as Vega’s fourth down pass fell incomplete.

FAIRMONT, W.Va. -- Fairmont State picked up its first victory of the season with a 25-20 win over West Liberty on Saturday afternoon at Duvall-Rosier Field. Bobby Vega completed 34-of-67 attempts for 361 yards and three touchdowns. Vega’s 67 pass attempts were a school record and the 361 yards tied for the sev-enth most in a single game at Fairmont State. Fairmont State rolled up 386 yards of total offense compared to just 161 for West Liberty. Chris St. Hilaire led the FSU receivers with a career-high 12 catches for 123 yards and a score. C.J. Goodwin also went over the century mark with three catches for 104 yards and a touchdown, including an 83-yard TD reception. WLU’s L.D. Crow completing 21-of-43 passes for 145 yards and a pair of interceptions. Dar-rell Stanley hauled in six catches for 45 yards. Isiah Moody had eight carries for 24 yards and a touchdown. Fairmont State started quickly scoring the game’s first 19 points. Johnny Dearstine opened the scoring with a 36-yard field goal, and Anthony Domcio later recorded a safety taking down Crow in the end zone to make it 5-0. Off the free kick, Fairmont State would travel 46 yards in eight plays with the drive being capped by a 13-yard touchdown reception by Chris St. Hilaire to make it 12-0 early in the second quarter. The FSU defense forced a three-and-out, and then made it 19-0 on a five-yard TD reception by Matt Wilmer. The Hilltoppers would get back into the game late in the half. WLU took advan-tage of an interception by Marco Richetti that he returned to the FSU five-yard line. The ‘Toppers punched it in two plays later but missed the extra point. WLU added another score late in the half to make it 19-13 at the break. West Liberty seized the momentum of the game on Fairmont State’s first pos-session as Jovontae Johnson scooped up a FSU fumble and rumbled 22 yards for the score to put the ‘Toppers in front 20-19. WLU pinned FSU on its own 13-yard line late in the third quarter, but that’s when Vega found C.J. Goodwin for an 87-yard bomb. The Falcons failed on the two-point conversion. The Falcon defense forced WLU three-and-out on its first two possessions of the fourth quarter and Wilson picked off Crow on their third possession. However, FSU could not add a score to ice the game, giving West liberty one last chance to win taking over with 2:35 to go. The Hilltoppers, who were 0-for-14 on third down before starting their final drive, converted on one third down and one fourth down to take the ball to the FSU 27. The defensive line harassed Crow into a sack and a hurried throw to end the game and seal the Falcon victory.

FAIRMONT, W.Va. -- The University of Charleston used three scoring plays of 40 yards or more to defeat Fairmont State, 30-10 on Saturday afternoon in Charles-ton. John Knox accounted for three touchdowns on the afternoon for the Golden Eagles. Charleston rolled for 436 yards of total offense while holding the Falcons to just 229 yards on the afternoon. UC ran for 236 yards compared to just 58 for the Falcons. Fairmont State converted on just 3-of-14 third down conversions com-pared to 6-of-13 for the Golden Eagles. Ryland Newman scored a touchdown on a 38-yard punt return and added six tackles for the Falcons. Charleston started quickly going 68 yards on five plays, capped by a 56-yard strike from Knox to Maxwell to give the Golden Eagles a 7-0 lead just two minutes into the game. On the following drive, the Falcons controlled the ball for 12 plays and over eight minutes before being forced to punt. Chris Kish pinned UC inside its own five-yard line, and after a three-and-out by the Golden Eagles, Newman returned the ensuing punt 38 yards to tie the game 7-7 after one quarter of play. With 6:47 to play in the second quarter, Davidson picked off Knox at the UC two-yard line. After a three-and-out, Charleston’s Roberts blocked the FSU punt to force a safety and give UC a 9-7 lead. After the free kick, Charleston needed just two plays to score as Roberts took the handoff 45 yards to give the Golden Eagles a 16-7 lead at the half. After forcing an FSU punt on the opening drive of the half, Charleston capped a 16 play, 68 yard drive with a one-yard touchdown run by Knox to give the Golden Eagles a 23-7 lead. The Golden Eagles ran the ball 11 times on the drive. On the fol-lowing possession, Johnny Dearstine added a 31-yard field goal to cut the UC lead to 23-10. St. Hillaire provided a 27-yard reception to key the nine-play, 61 yard drive for the Falcons. It took just two plays for the Golden Eagles to respond as Knox found Byrd for a 55-yard touchdown pass with 1:26 to play in the third quarter to give UC a 30-10 advantage. On the next UC possession, Puma Nuradini looked to add to the UC score but couldn’t capitalize on a 31-yard field goal. Each team would have two more possessions in the final quarter before Charleston would take a knee and wrap up the victory.

Daniel Strosnider: Mr. Reliable (published Sept 27)

Reliable is defined as being dependable in achievement, accuracy and honesty. On Fairmont State University’s football team reliable is defined as Daniel Strosnider. In the last three-and-a-half years no Falcon has played in more games than Strosnider, a 5-11, 200-pound senior spur or outside linebacker/defensive back from Morgantown. Since stepping foot on FSU’s campus in the fall of 2009 Strosnider has been a posi-tive force for the Falcons both on and off of the field. He never redshirted as a freshman and has played in all 37 games since he first donned the maroon and white compiling 124 total tackles, including 83 solo stops and 20 tackles for losses. He also has four career sacks and a pair of interceptions. “He preaches and preaches to us that he’s going to sell out every day for us on the field and he does it,” said Falcon senior cor-nerback Ryland Newman, who has played 36 games with Strosnider. “I love playing with Daniel Strosnider. I’ve been playing with him now for four years and about the best com-plement I could pay him is you can always count on him. Always. “He’s smart. He’s got some speed. He’s physical and he knows the game extremely well. He’s the complete package both on and off the field. I can’t say enough good things about the guy.” Sixth-year Fairmont State head coach Mike Lopez feels the same way. “The young man is phenomenal,” said Lopez, who recruited Strosnider out of Mor-gantown High School. “He’s really an out-standing person. From the moment I first recruited him until now he’s been nothing but a joy to be around. “He’s a rarity. He’s got very strong Christian beliefs and a strong Christian background which allows him to be a good leader for us. He’s truly a guy who leads by example. He walks the walk. Our guys will tell you without question he’s a great team-mate.” Despite the lofty praise he receives from his teammates and coaching staff Strosnid-er is a player and person who remains very humble and grounded. He has a clear focus of what he wants to accomplish both on the field for the Falcons and off of it in his every-day life. “I’ve always wanted to be someone my team can rely on,” he said. “That’s so impor-tant to me. That’s been a goal for me since I first got here. Now, it’s hard to believe I’m in my senior season, but I’ve really tried to take that philosophy to a whole new level this fall. I not only want to be a leader for

this football team, but a good leader. I try to make the most of every opportunity I’m afforded in my life. You only get so many in your life time and I truly believe you need to try to make the most of them.” Strosnider is majoring in education at Fairmont State and in the future would love to both teach and coach football. For the past two summers Strosnider has worked as a head counselor for FSU’s Falcon Center Summer Day Camp, which is open to children between the ages of 6-12 and is a camp designed to keep the children active while providing education on the im-portance of physical activity, nutrition and social skills. He says the experience for him has been very rewarding. “Quite often people will ask me why do I want to do that and I just feel like at those ages kids are like sponges,” said Strosnider. “They’ll soak up about everything you try to teach and tell them. They’re willing to learn. They want to learn and I’ve always felt if I can be a positive role model in a little boy or little girl’s life and have an influence on a decision that they might make down the road in their lives then I’ve done something good. “If I can affect just one child in my class-room in a positive way every year for 20 years then I’ve affected a lot of kids. I’ve made them better people and that’s something that’s very important to me and very close to my heart. Nowadays especially little boys need a positive male role model in their lives. I’m just trying to fill that role for those who need it and help some of these kids out.” Strosnider’s work and interaction with the children at the day camp is extraordi-

nary. He is, without question, a favorite of the campers. “Daniel’s really good with the kids,” said junior counselor Haley Cochran, who worked with Strosnider this past summer at the camp. “They love being around him. He has a real understanding of the kids and is very good at working with them on their level. He has fun with them, comforts them if they need it and makes every day an enjoy-able, positive and rewarding experience for them.” Strosnider, along with football team-mates Bryan Wilson and Matt Wilmer are the leaders of the Bible study group on cam-pus which is another important aspect of his multifaceted life. “Jamal Womble started it and kind of turned it over to myself, Bryan and Matt and it’s really grown,” said Strosnider. “We meet on Wednesdays and we’re seeing new peo-ple join us on a consistent basis. “That’s something that’s always been important to me and, to be honest, I think it’s helping our team out. Some kids on our team who may not have a strong spiritual belief have come and joined our Bible study group and you can see the growth in their relationship with God. “I feel fortunate to have the ability to play football, but it is just a game and re-gardless of what the score or outcome is ev-ery week I’m still going to give praise to God for allowing me to do what I do every day. I’ve been blessed. I’ve had a good career here, a good life and I’m certainly looking forward to the future and the new challenges that are awaiting me.”

Bryan Wilson: A Whirlwind (published Sept 13)

Fairmont State’s Bryan Wilson doesn’t have to worry about ever being mistaken for the Beach Boys co-founder of the same name but nowadays he can certainly identify with the band’s first number one hit in the United States “I Get Around.” Wilson, you see, has played a variety of roles for the Falcons since he first arrived on campus in the fall of 2009. His first three seasons, including one in which he was red-shirted, Wilson served as a backup to Dewey McDonald at free safety. When Wilson hit the field for the first time in the fall of 2010 he earned a job on special teams for FSU in addition to seeing time as a backup to Mc-Donald. In two years he recorded 26 total tackles, broke up five passes, intercepted one and recovered one fumble. This past spring Fairmont’s coaching staff asked Wilson to move to spur or out-side linebacker behind senior Daniel Stros-nider. Just as he was settling in there nicely in fall camp, McDonald suffered a broken arm which forced him to take a medical red-shirt for the season and prompted the FSU coaches to ask Wilson to split time between both his new and old positions. Then, in the second half of the season opener against Clarion (Pa.) University Mc-Donald’s replacement at free safety, Leatis Jones, suffered a knee injury forcing Wilson into the starting role in his old familiar spot. “It’s been a little bit of a whirlwind for me going from free to spur and back to free again,” said Wilson with a laugh. “The good thing is as a free safety you kind of have to know what the job of every position on the defense is because you’re responsible for a lot of the calls and getting people in the right spots. I was just starting to get a little comfortable with spur in fall camp when Dewey went down and the coaches asked me to take reps at both positions. Losing Dewey was huge for us. You just don’t re-place a player of his caliber. “Then Leatis went down which was even worse for us. Losing two guys at that spot is tough. The good thing for me and our team is I at least had a few years of experience playing the free safety spot for us. I’m com-fortable there and hopefully the guys on the team are comfortable with me being there.” They are. In fact McDonald, who was a two-time, first-team All-West Virginia Inter-collegiate Athletic Conference selection for the Falcons at free safety, says the position is in good hands with Wilson.

“Wilson is a guy we all know we can count on,” said McDonald. “You never have to worry about him as a player. As my back-up he pushed me to levels as a player that he doesn’t even know he pushed me to. He defi-nitely made me work hard and perform at a high level because that’s how he operates every day. He prides himself on being a real student of the game. He’s always prepared and he’s always going to give you everything he’s got when he’s on the field.” FSU defensive coordinator Shahram Shafii agrees. “Bryan Wilson is a one-of-a-kind player,” said Shafii. “He’s been a role model for our team both on and off of the field ever since he got here. He comes into the film room ev-ery day with a notebook which is about the size of an encyclopedia and is full of notes. When we’re watching film and he makes a mistake and I correct him he’s writing it down so he can correct it the next time we’re on the field for practice. He comes in every day with different goals of what he wants to accomplish on that given day. “He’s just a very driven kid. It doesn’t matter whether he’s playing one snap or a thousand he brings the same positive, hard-working attitude with him every single day. He’s a great kid and a great player. We’re very fortunate to have him, especially now in the situation that we’re in.” Wilson, who is from Cary, N.C., is the second youngest of six boys in his family. He has one brother, Andrew, who plays minor league baseball in the Atlanta Braves orga-nization and another who is in the military special forces. “I was the brother who got picked on all of the time,” he said jokingly. “I wasn’t the baby so I couldn’t get away with anything. I think growing up with that many boys made me a little tougher. In fact, I know it did and it definitely helped to prepare me for college football.” His father Berk is a minister and his mother Barbara works for an insurance com-pany with former Falcon wide receiver Scott Thistle, who helped get Wilson to Fairmont State. “I had never even heard of Fairmont State until Scott Thistle told me about it,” he said. “I owe him a lot. He trained me from my sophomore year until I was a freshman here and I still train with him until this day when I go back home. He really helped me develop in all areas, especially running with the prop-er form. I ran about a 4.7 40-yard dash when

By Duane Cochran for FightingFalcons.com

I was a sophomore and thanks to Scott I was down to a legitimate 4.5 by the time I was a senior. “Scott made a couple of calls for me. We sent a tape up here and they offered me a scholarship. Having five brothers my parents said I had to pay my own way for school so I jumped at the opportunity and it’s been a good fit for me being here.” Wilson credits his parents for raising him with good, solid values and ethics. He, along with fellow FSU football players Dan-iel Strosnider and Matt Wilmer and former Falcon basketball player Jamal Womble, are the leaders of a bible study group on cam-pus. “Above all God is first and foremost in my life. Then parents, family and football,” said Wilson. “Spirituality always been a very big part of my life and I’m thankful for that. Believe me I’ve had plenty of opportunities to throw things away and do my own thing, but I think thanks to my parents, God and the way I was raised I’ve been able to make some wise decisions and choices. “I really enjoy doing what I do with Stro, Wilmer and Jamal. I always have them to lean on. When I came up here I knew no one. Jamal was one of the first people I met and he always encouraged me and was there for me to talk to. Believe me that first year I talked to him a lot about a lot of things. He, and my parents, really helped me make the adjustment to being on my own and being here away from home my freshman year.” In addition to football, Wilson is also a standout in the classroom. He is majoring in sports management and is an academic achievement award winner on the football team. He also works part time at the school’s Falcon Center and likes to organize football-watching get togethers and game nights be it electronic or board games with his team-mates. “I’ve always enjoyed doing that and I re-ally try to include the freshmen on our team because I remember what it was like being a freshman and adjusting to college life,” he said. “I’ve really never enjoyed going out. I just try to give people other options or al-ternatives and let them know there’s other things to do and other ways to have fun. “I love watching games and I like playing games like NCAA Football or simple board games. In fact, (FSU linebacker) Ryan Watts and I have really been getting into board games lately. We have some good battles.” Whatever the game you can expect Bry-an Wilson to be on top of it.

Bobby Vega: Ready For The Chance (published Aug. 20)

When Bobby Vega wrapped up his junior college football career at the College of Du-Page in Glen Ellyn, Ill., all he wanted was the opportunity to go to a four-year school and compete for a starting job. Vega, a 6-2, 210 junior quarterback, got his wish when Fairmont State University came calling. The Falcons already had two-year starter Logan Moore in the fold when Vega enrolled at FSU in January, but Fairmont’s coaching staff was adamant about adding quality depth to a crucial position on their roster. Vega was coming off his sophomore and fi-nal season at the College of DuPage where he completed 157 of 264 passes (59.4 per-cent) for 1,987 yards and 23 touchdowns. He was intercepted 10 times. “You go back to our season last year when Logan got hurt against Bowie State here, it changed the whole course of our season,” said FSU head coach Mike Lopez. “I promised the staff that I’d never let that happen again.” Vega wasted little time turning heads in spring drills with his live arm and leader-ship qualities. Moore and Vega engaged in a friendly, but competitive battle for the top spot in FSU’s offense which culminated in the annual FSU Maroon-White Spring Game.

In that contest Vega connected on 12-of-24 passes for 196 yards and one TD. The stage appeared to be set for a good battle for the starting job between the two in August, but Moore opted to enroll at West Virginia University, leaving the job to Vega. Despite losing Moore, the Falcons still solved their issue with depth at the position adding Tyler Pate from Hurricane, W.Va., and Bran-don Ashenfelter from Martinsburg, W.Va. “First and foremost I think I’ve been blessed with the opportunity that I’ve been given here at Fairmont State,” said Vega. “Unfortunately Logan left here and I have nothing but best wishes for him. He was definitely a big part of this program and this offense. I believe we both could have been used in the right way here to help this team. “I came here just wanting to compete for a job. I didn’t ask for anything but a chance and I got that chance and now it’s up to me to make the most of it. I’m in the so-called driver’s seat to run this offense and it’s up to me to get the job done.” The good news for Vega, who starred in high school in Florida at Miami’s Felix Varela Senior High, is that he’ll be surrounded this fall by a plethora of returning starters includ-ing WVIAC Offensive Freshman of the Year running back Daniel Monroe, receivers Chris

St. Hilaire, Mark Sampson and Matt Wilmer, tight end Sean Marion and first-team all-league tackle Chris Barfield to name a few. “I feel like we’re going to be solid on of-fense,” said Vega. “We have some depth now on the offensive line. The coaches recruited very well in that area. I also think we have great wide receivers in St. Hilaire, Wilmer, Sampson and some young guys who are talented. Then we have Monroe, who before he got hurt last year was having a great sea-son. “We have talent. It just has to all come together. Right now we really need to work on building team chemistry. That’s a big part of success.” Vega returned to Fairmont from Miami in mid-summer and began preparing him-self to run the offense. “As soon as I got back I called some of the guys who were here to get together and throw some to keep my arm loose and in shape,” he said. “I also wanted to work on timing with them. I also watched film a lot. I didn’t have a lot on myself. I watched the spring game quite a few times and I’ve tried to correct my mistakes. I’m a player who be-lieves you can always learn and you can al-ways improve. I feel like I’ve put my work in. Now let’s see if it pays off.” Lopez is one individual who believes it will. “Bobby’s a great kid who has been very mature from day one here,” said Lopez. “Bob-by is our guy. I’m comfortable saying that. He has a great work ethic and very good lead-ership skills. He’s cool and calm and he pos-sesses a big arm and good feet. I think he’s a good fit for our offense and I’ll say this – I sleep very well at night knowing he’s going to be the guy running our offense.”

Scott Davidson: Finding The Phantom (published Aug. 23)

Like an onion, there’s a lot of layers to Fair-mont State University senior football player Scott Davidson. There’s Scott Davidson the double major in communications and graphic technology who is a member of the Dean’s List. There’s Scott Davidson the two-month intern at Enterprise Rent-A-Car in Fairmont who has been No. 1 in home city sales in each of the two months he’s been there. There’s Scott Davidson the student of the game, master technician and a leader of the FSU secondary from his cornerback posi-tion. And there’s Scott Davidson the “Phan-tom,” a self-proclaimed moniker he gave himself in high school to best describe his on-field persona. “The guy is sneaky good,” said FSU re-ceiver Chris St. Hilaire. “He’s very good at disguising what he’s going to do. You may think he’s going to do one thing and he’ll do the complete opposite. He’s also great at reading receivers and routes. He’ll recognize if a receiver is going to break down and cut off the route or if he’s going to make a move and go deep. “He’s a very intelligent player who has good feet and his technique is the best. If I’m running an out he’s right on my hip. If I run a comeback he’s right behind me. If I go deep he’s still right on my hip. The guy is always where he’s supposed to be. I think he’s one of the best corners in our league.” Since he first arrived on Fairmont State’s campus three years ago Davidson, who did not redshirt out of Columbus, Ohio’s East-moor Academy, has taken a very mature and business-like approach to the way he does pretty much everything in his life. “My dad wasn’t in my life growing up,” he said. “My mother, Deborah, raised my sis-ter Donna and I. She’s the strongest person I know. She can handle pretty much anything. I think I’ve seen her cry maybe once in my life. I draw a lot of my strength as a person from her. I respect her so much and know I can always turn to her if I need anything. “I think because of my situation I had to mature a lot faster than maybe most males do. The closest thing I had to a father fig-ure growing up was one of my high school coaches, James Miranda, who is a great guy that I still talk to from time to time. He had a real positive influence on me.” Once he was in Fairmont’s camp in the fall of 2009, it didn’t take the Falcon coaches long to recognize Davidson’s potential.

“The one thing I know for certain about Scotty Davidson is from the first day he ar-rived here at Fairmont he’s always separated himself both on and off the field as a leader and as a mature adult,” said FSU defensive coordinator Shahram Shafii. “He’s always as-pired to be great. Athletically there’s times he may not have the same skill set as people who line up beside him or across from him, but technique-wise he’s phenomenal. He’s one of the hardest workers we have. “You tell me he had success working at Enterprise, well, it wouldn’t surprise me at the end of the day if he owned Enterprise,” Shafii continued. “That’s the type of kid he is. I love him. He’s great at teaching and work-ing with our young guys and having him on the field makes me, as a coach, a lot more comfortable.” Davidson heads into his senior season with 60 total tackles, 43 of which are solo stops. He also has three career interceptions and eight pass breakups. “I can hardly believe it’s my senior sea-son already,” said Davidson. “I’m looking for good things from both myself and our team this year.

By Duane Cochran for FightingFalcons.com

“I’ve had a great three years here and am looking forward to a fourth. I’m going to miss a lot of things about here – my team-mates and the coaching staff. I’ve learned so much. The coaches have been great. They make you laugh and they make you cry, but at the end of the day they teach you some-thing about football and life and I’ve tried to learn and apply as much of what I’ve been taught as possible.” And as for his “Phantom” persona? “In life you have to have a couple of dif-ferent personas,” said Davidson with a laugh. “You can’t just be you all of the time. Off the field I’m definitely Scott Davidson. I’m a fun guy who is easy to get along with. On the field I’m more business-like. When you play this game you’ve got to have a certain confi-dence or swagger. Hence the phantom. “At first in high school the guys used to call me Master Lock. That was nice but I couldn’t get anywhere with that. I tried to play it in my head and it just went no where. We had this thing in high school called super hero day and I told everyone I was going to come as the Phantom. They were like ‘What, no way.’ I dressed up in all black tights with black shoes, a cape and a mask and called myself the Phantom. From that point on it stuck and I ran with it. I tried to do different things on the field which would make me seem like a phantom. I remember quarter-backs telling me a lot that it seemed like I came out of no where. I liked that.” Davidson will graduate in May with two degrees from FSU. In the future he says he wouldn’t mind parlaying his internship at Enterprise into a full-time position. “Hopefully after I graduate and pass my skills and grills test with Enterprise they’ll hire me as a full-time management assis-tant,” said Davidson. “After that I can pretty much go wherever there’s an opening. “I kind of have a knack for public rela-tions, marketing, sales and things like that. In sales you have to have a strategy. It’s just like football. Every game isn’t the same and every customer isn’t the same. I like it there (at Enterprise) because it’s not a scam. Every-thing is real, down to earth and legit. You ex-plain everything up front and you don’t have to worry about people coming back and say-ing I didn’t know this or that. “I’m ready for life and ready to get things started. I’ve pretty much had my life planned out since I was about 15. I know where I want to be and what steps I have to take to get there.”
