2012 RECAP TIGERSbuilding onPAST SUCCESSThe Tigers started the year 3-0 for the thirdstraight year and recorded a second straightwinning season in 2012 in an effort to establish<strong>it</strong>self at the top of the GPAC and NAIA.TIGER REVIEWBy LEAH RADO, Sports Information DirectorThe Dakota Wesleyan Univers<strong>it</strong>y football team upheld thetrad<strong>it</strong>ion of success <strong>it</strong> has been building in 2012.The Tigers recorded their second straight winning season w<strong>it</strong>ha 6-4 overall record and, for the third straight year, started theseason on a three-game winning streak. Dakota Wesleyanwon four of <strong>it</strong>s first five games but, much like the 2011 season,struggled in the second half of the year.<strong>DWU</strong> went 3-0 to start in head coach Ross Cimpl’s first year atthe helm and followed up a 40-30 loss at Hastings College w<strong>it</strong>ha 45-31 offensive showdown against Dordt College. After theOct. 6 win for Blue & Wh<strong>it</strong>e Days, the Tigers won just two moregames in October and November.Desp<strong>it</strong>e the 2-3 finish to the season, 2012 was a record-settingone for several individual Tigers. Senior running back JoshEndres took over as the school’s all-time leading rusher, andhe also set the school record for rushing yards in a season. Heran for 1,302 yards in 2012 and finished his career w<strong>it</strong>h 3,329total rushing yards. Endres also graduated as the single-gamerushing leader (316), set in 2010. He finished fourth in the NAIAin yards per game (130.2).Senior defensive back Dustin Bergmeier tied the schoolrecord w<strong>it</strong>h three interceptions in a game against ConcordiaUnivers<strong>it</strong>y.<strong>DWU</strong> started the season w<strong>it</strong>h a 40-14 win over in-state rivalDakota State Univers<strong>it</strong>y in <strong>it</strong>s first home night game in severalyears. Joe Quintal was nearly full as the Tigers put on a showunder the lights for their fans, including 27 first-quarter points.Endres ran for more than 200 yards and three touchdowns tohelp lead <strong>DWU</strong> past the Trojans.In <strong>it</strong>s first Great Plains Athletic Conference game of the year, theTigers led 13-6 at halftime, but Concordia Univers<strong>it</strong>y scoredtwice in the third quarter to go up 16-13 heading into the final15 minutes of play. Dakota Wesleyan scored early in the fourthon a 2-yard run by Endres to go up by four, 20-16, but theBulldogs pulled ahead again a few minutes later on an 8-yardtouchdown run.Dakota Wesleyan scored the go-ahead touchdown w<strong>it</strong>h justunder five minutes remaining when Michael Brown caught a49-yard touchdown pass from Bane, but <strong>it</strong> wasn’t until the final30 seconds of the game that the 26-23 score became final.After <strong>DWU</strong> scored <strong>it</strong>s final touchdown, both teams punted onceand Concordia drove the ball from <strong>it</strong>s own 20-yard line to theTigers’ 16-yard line. <strong>DWU</strong> took a timeout w<strong>it</strong>h 27 secondsremaining, and on the next play, senior Josh Thompsonintercepted a Bulldog pass in the end zone to secure the win.<strong>DWU</strong> downed Briar Cliff Univers<strong>it</strong>y 24-13 at home for <strong>it</strong>s thirdstraight 3-0 start before losing <strong>it</strong>s first game of the year atHastings. The Broncos led 14-0 after the first quarter, andmatched the Tigers point-for-point in the second and thirdquarters. <strong>DWU</strong> scored twice in the fourth quarter, but <strong>it</strong> wasn’tenough. Desp<strong>it</strong>e the loss, Bane set the school record for passoffense in a game w<strong>it</strong>h 457 yards. That mark also set the teamrecord for pass offense in a game.Junior quarterback Jon Bane also had a big year for DakotaWesleyan in his third season w<strong>it</strong>h the program. He took over asthe program’s all-time leader in pass offense (6,894) and totaloffense (6,982), and set the school record for passing yards in agame (457) against Hastings College.All-GPAC running back Josh Endres runs for a touchdown in 2012.2013 Tiger Football page 4www.dwu.edu


2012 RECAP TIGERSThe Tigers lost 41-13 to No. 16 Northwestern College the nextweek, and followed that w<strong>it</strong>h a 17-0 loss to Nebraska WesleyanUnivers<strong>it</strong>y in their final road game of the year on Nov. 3. DakotaWesleyan returned home for <strong>it</strong>s final game of the year onNov. 10, and picked up a 21-14 victory over Midland Univers<strong>it</strong>y.Arthur Brown scored <strong>DWU</strong>’s first two touchdowns of the game– one in the third quarter and one early in the fourth, andEndres capped off his college career in a huge way w<strong>it</strong>h a70-yard touchdown run w<strong>it</strong>h 44 seconds left in the game.All-GPAC senior linebacker Mike Barnaud (36) makes a tackle in 2012.After the loss to the Broncos, Dakota Wesleyan bounced backand won a high-scoring offensive battle against Dordt 45-31 for<strong>it</strong>s annual Blue & Wh<strong>it</strong>e Days game. After being held scorelessin the first quarter, the Tigers scored 14 second-quarter pointsand went off for 31 points in the second half, including 21 in thefourth quarter alone. Senior tight end Derek Carlson caughtfour touchdown passes, including a 53-yard pass and a 73-yardpass from Bane. The two teams combined for 1,237 yards oftotal offense in the showdown.After the Dordt game, the Tigers played three straight rankedopponents. First up was Morningside, ranked No. 4 in the NAIAand the eventual national runner-up. The Mustangs defeatedDakota Wesleyan 63-7 in Sioux C<strong>it</strong>y, Iowa.Perhaps the Tigers’ biggest win of the season came on Oct. 20when they defeated Doane College – ranked No. 20 in the NAIAat the time – 28-24 at Joe Quintal. The two teams exchangedthe lead seven times throughout the game. The mostimportant lead change came in the final two minutes of thegame when, w<strong>it</strong>h 1:31 left on the clock, Arthur Brown caughta 5-yard touchdown pass from Bane to put <strong>DWU</strong> up 28-24.Doane led 24-21 after a safety w<strong>it</strong>h 12:11 left to play and missedthe chance to extend <strong>it</strong>s lead thanks to a botched 37-yard fieldgoalattempt w<strong>it</strong>h just over 10 minutes left in the game.<strong>DWU</strong> drove the field and had a shot to tie the game but misseda 33-yard field goal w<strong>it</strong>h 4:09 remaining. The Doane Tigersgot the ball back and were forced to punt, giving the <strong>DWU</strong>Tigers excellent field pos<strong>it</strong>ion w<strong>it</strong>h a 5-yard punt that went out ofbounds at the Doane 24-yard line w<strong>it</strong>h 3:05 to play. The Tigerscap<strong>it</strong>alized, scored and held off Doane for the win.That run not only sealed the win for Dakota Wesleyan, but <strong>it</strong>also pushed Endres into the top spot on the school’s singleseasonrushing chart. He entered his final game of the yearw<strong>it</strong>h 1,121 rushing yards in his senior season, and that final 70-yard carry pushed him to 181 yards for the game and 1,302 forthe season to set the record.<strong>DWU</strong> finished the year fourth in the GPAC and 18th in the NAIAin pass offense per game (239.7). <strong>DWU</strong> led the GPAC andfinished 13th in the nation in yards per punt (39.7) and finished12th in the NAIA w<strong>it</strong>h 12 sacks against.Carlson earned All-American accolades as a punter afterleading the GPAC and finishing sixth in the NAIA in yards perpunt (41.1). He also earned All-GPAC Second-Team SpecialTeams honors as a punter and honorable mention accoladesas a tight end.Endres and offensive lineman Nathan L<strong>it</strong>tle earned first-teamoffense honors – the third straight honor for both athletes.Defensive lineman Craig Henglefelt and Bergmeier earnedAll-GPAC Second-Team Defense honors; and Bane, MichaelBrown, Arthur Brown, offensive lineman Kyle Hencke andlinebackers Mike Barnaud, Brady Bonte, AnthonyCervantes and Jeff Maassen all earned honorable mentionstatus.

OUTLOOKstrivingforconsistencyAfter a 5-0 start in 2011, the <strong>DWU</strong> football team islooking for another fast start, and then a solidfinish in 2012 as <strong>it</strong> aims for a spot atop the GPACand the NAIA.TIGER PREVIEWBy LEAH RADO, Sports Information DirectorIn his first season as head coach of the Dakota WesleyanUnivers<strong>it</strong>y football team, Ross Cimpl led the Tigers to theirsecond straight winning season and third straight 3-0 start.In 2013, Cimpl is looking to expand on that success.Dakota Wesleyan went 3-0 and won four of <strong>it</strong>s first five gamesto start the 2012 season before ending the year 6-4 overall.The Tigers went 5-4 and finished tied for fourth in the GreatPlains Athletic Conference.<strong>DWU</strong> made <strong>it</strong> as high as No. 19 in the NAIA Top 25 Coaches’Poll and stayed in the top 25 for several weeks, but went 2-3 inthe last five games of the season and dropped out of the polls.The Tigers want to surpass the six-win mark in 2013 andstick around in the NAIA poll throughout the season. Previousseasons have provided a solid base for Dakota Wesleyan, butthis year <strong>DWU</strong> wants to expand those boundaries and push<strong>it</strong>self to new levels of success both in the GPAC and the NAIA.“We have been making some tremendous strides indeveloping our program,” Cimpl said. “We have a bunch ofguys who want to change the culture of <strong>DWU</strong> football, and thatis exc<strong>it</strong>ing to be a part of. We need to continue to work hard tobecome a top-tier team in our conference and in the country.”The Tigers have the daunting task of replacing running backJosh Endres this season. Endres, who graduated in May,graduated w<strong>it</strong>h school records for rushing in a game, seasonand career. He broke the single-season rushing record on thefinal carry of his collegiate career and finished w<strong>it</strong>h 1,302 yardslast season and 3,329 in his career.Looking to fill the gap left by the three-time All-GPAC runningback is junior Francois Barnaud. Barnaud is in his fourthseason w<strong>it</strong>h the Tiger football program, but he suffered aTIGERSseason-ending injury in the first game of 2012. He ran the ball31 times for 109 yards as a sophomore in 2011.The Tigers’ receiving corps returns plenty of experience in2013, including one of the top receivers in the GPAC and NAIAfrom two seasons ago. After redshirting last season, All-American receiver Anthony Muilenburg returns to the fieldfor <strong>DWU</strong>. Muilenburg earned All-American honors and All-GPAC First-Team honors as a junior in 2011, but he sat out the2012 season w<strong>it</strong>h an injury. He caught 64 passes for 855 yardsand also recorded 389 yards on kick and punt returns as ajunior and looks to have a fast return to the game this fall.Also back for <strong>DWU</strong> are receivers Arthur Brown andMichael Brown. Arthur Brown led the team w<strong>it</strong>h 579 receivingyards and six touchdowns and averaged 57.9 receiving yardsper game as a sophomore in 2012. Michael Brown added 451receiving yards and three touchdowns. Both earned All-GPACHonorable Mention accolades.Back to man the quarterback pos<strong>it</strong>ion is Jon Bane, who is inhis fourth and final season w<strong>it</strong>h the team in 2013. He becamethe school’s all-time career passing (6,894) and total offense(6,982) leader in 2012. He also helped the Tigers set therecord for passing yards in a game (457) against HastingsCollege. As a junior last season, Bane went 159-for-309 for2,157 yards, 18 touchdowns and eight interceptions. Heaveraged 233.2 yards of offense per game and was named All-GPAC Honorable Mention at the end of the season.<strong>DWU</strong> offensive linemen Skyler Eriksen (72) and Kyle Henke (75) tackle in 2012.2013 Tiger Football page 10www.dwu.edu


OUTLOOK“Our offense has made some tremendous progress in thelast year,” Cimpl said. “We feel that the experience we have upfront, coupled w<strong>it</strong>h the talent we have at the skill pos<strong>it</strong>ions, givesus a very good opportun<strong>it</strong>y to score points. We are going tohave to rely on our veterans to perform at a high level, and addsome younger players into the mix to be big-time contributors.”Keeping the opposing teams’ defense at bay will be All-GPACoffensive lineman Kyle Henke. He has played in all but onegame in each of his first two seasons w<strong>it</strong>h the team. Also backto anchor the Tigers’ offensive line are seniors Skyler Eriksenand Eric W<strong>it</strong>te, along w<strong>it</strong>h junior Spencer Bloch andsophomores Ryan Zdroik and Austin Schroeder.The Tiger defense returns plenty of experience, especially atthe linebacker pos<strong>it</strong>ion. Three <strong>DWU</strong> linebackers return afterearning All-GPAC Honorable Mention honors in 2012, and theTigers return five of their top six tacklers in 2013. BradyBonte, Anthony Cervantes and Jeff Maassen all earned All-GPAC accolades last season and finished second, third andfifth, respectively, on the defensive leaderboard. As a freshman,Bonte was second on the team w<strong>it</strong>h 96 tackles and led theteam w<strong>it</strong>h 44 solo tackles. Cervantes had 62 total tackles andled the team w<strong>it</strong>h 13.5 tackles for a loss and four sacks, andMaassen was fifth w<strong>it</strong>h 54 total tackles and had two fumblerecoveries as a sophomore.Defensive backs Matt McManus and Andrew DeVaneyalso return after finishing fourth and sixth, respectively, intackles last season. McManus finished w<strong>it</strong>h 56 tackles, andDeVaney recorded 53. Both added five pass breakups.Anchoring the defensive line will be seniors Eric Gruis andMatt Tuttle. Gruis finished w<strong>it</strong>h 21 total tackles last season,and Tuttle added 13. Calvin Hunhoff also returns for hissophomore season. Freshmen Brady Mudder (Garretson,S.D.) and Cohl Ratermann (Colome, S.D.) will both look tomake an impact on the defensive line right away.“We really have a great group of guys on the defensive side ofthe ball,” Cimpl said. “Most of the guys who were starters orcontributors for us last year are back w<strong>it</strong>h another year ofexperience under their belt. We do not have a great deal ofupperclassman on this side of the ball, but we are not lackingin experience. This group has the talent and abil<strong>it</strong>y to be a veryspecial group.”All-American punter Derek Carlson graduated in May, butDan Porter returns for his sophomore season after taking overkicking duties for Dakota Wesleyan last season. He kicked off45 times for 2,486 yards and also punted 11 times for 410yards. Porter went 27-for-32 in extra-point attempts, and two ofhis five misses came in the first game of his collegiate career.He will take over punting duties in his second season w<strong>it</strong>h theteam and continue to handle kicking for the Tigers.Arthur Brown handled most of the punt returns last season aswell as kick returns. Junior M<strong>it</strong>ch Breen also had a hand inkick return duties, and both look to see time on special teamsTIGERSLinebacker Anthony Cervantes had a breakout sophomore season in 2012.again this season. Muilenburg will also return to his spot in theTigers’ return game after earning All-GPAC Second-TeamSpecial Teams honors as a junior.As a team, Dakota Wesleyan finished fourth in the GPAC and18th in the NAIA in pass offense (239.7) and fifth in the GPAC intotal offense (364.8). The Tigers were also 12th in the nation insacks against (12) and 13th in yards per punt (39.7).Cimpl added plenty of talent in the offseason, includingreceivers Kodi Larson (Tyndall, S.D.) and Dustin Livingston(Irene, S.D.), running back Alex Robertson (Canistota, S.D.),defensive back Trevin Island (Rialto, Calif.) and linebackerAdam Bormann (Stickney, S.D.). All five look to compete forplaying time right away as freshmen in 2013.The Tigers start 2013 w<strong>it</strong>h three road games before hostingHastings for Blue & Wh<strong>it</strong>e Days on Sept. 28. Five of <strong>DWU</strong>’s firstsix games are on the road, including a nonconference gameagainst the Univers<strong>it</strong>y of Wisconsin-Stout in Menominee, Wis.,to start the season on Sept. 7. Dakota Wesleyan hostsHastings, Morningside (Oct. 19), Nebraska Wesleyan (Nov. 2)and Concordia (Nov. 9) this season.“There are many questions surrounding the 2013 <strong>DWU</strong>football team,” Cimpl said. “Our goals are to be an el<strong>it</strong>e team inthe conference and country.“In order for that to happen, we need to have tremendousleadership and mature quickly at some spots. We have a greatgroup of players who are hungry to take <strong>DWU</strong> football to thenext level.
