Ramey Golf Course Cost: $65 National Championship Reunion Fund While preparing for this fall’s three national championship reunions, these milestone events present an opportunity to reflect on the role Javelina football played in the lives of each player and coach. Coach Steinke’s and Coach Harm’s basic tenets of self-discipline, perseverance and leadership are timeless values still needed as much today as they were “back in the day.” These championship values require more than professions of pride and belief. Indeed, they also need our financial support for the future. The National Championship Reunion Fund is a special campaign to assist Javelina football, held in conjunction with the 30 th , 40 th and 50 th reunions of national championship teams. For most Javelina football alumni this represents the first time former players are asked to consider an endowment commitment or planned gift. The National Championship Reunion Fund provides each team with a unique opportunity to contribute to the legacy they forged together and for all time. Participation is the key emphasis, and each contribution is a life-changing investment in the future of Javelina football. Additional information can be found at “Reunion Central,” www.javelinaathletics.com.

Lone Star Conference Football Prospectus Series (Editor’s Note: This is the fourth in a series of articles on the Lone Star Conference opponents of the Javelina football team this fall. The articles were written by Nick Eatman of the LSC office). West Texas A&M Scoring 68 points in the final game of the season, and not winning a championship, is a rare thing for any football team on any level. But it happened to West Texas A&M last year as the Buffaloes found themselves on the wrong end of one of the wildest games in NCAA history. Despite a 93-68 second-round loss to Lone Star Conference rival Abilene Christian, which was the school’s fourth consecutive second-round playoff loss, the 2008 season was a success for the Buffs, who finished 11-2 and had 17 players picked for the All-LSC first and second teams. Head coach Don Carthel, who enters his fifth season with a record of 44-7 at WTAM, knows it won’t be easy to live up to preseason ranking, which had the Buffs second in the LSC South. That is because of those 17 all-conference players, 10 were seniors. “We lost a lot of seniors last year so to be picked second is a shock to me,” Carthel said. “I would venture to say we have the 2009 Javelina Volleyball Schedule Sept. 10 – St. Thomas in Houston, 7 p.m. Sept. 15 – Texas A&M International in Kingsville, 7 p.m. Sept. 17 - *Texas A&M-Commerce in Kingsville, 7 p.m. Sept. 19 - *Texas Woman’s in Kingsville, 2 p.m. Sept. 24 - *Southwestern Oklahoma in Weatherford, Okla., 7 p.m. Sept. 26 - *Central Oklahoma in Edmond, Okla., 2 p.m. Oct. 2 – St. Edward’s in Austin, 7 p.m. Oct. 3 – Incarnate Word in San Antonio, 11 a.m. Oct. 3 – St. Mary’s in San Antonio, 3 p.m. Oct. 8 – *Cameron in Kingsville, 7 p.m. Oct. 10 - *Midwestern State in Kingsville, 2 p.m. Oct. 15 - *Southeastern Oklahoma in Durant, Okla., 7 p.m. Oct. 17 - *East Central in Ada, Okla., 2 p.m. Oct. 20 – Texas A&M International in Laredo, 7 p.m. Oct. 22 - *Tarleton State in Kingsville, 7 p.m. Oct. 29 - *Eastern New Mexico in Kingsville, 7 p.m. Oct. 31 - *West Texas A&M in Kingsville, 2 p.m. Nov. 5 - *Abilene Christian in Abilene, 7 p.m. Nov. 7 - *Angelo State in San Angelo, 2 p.m. Nov. 12-14 – Lone Star Conference Championships, TBA *Lone Star Conference matches. fewest starters back of any in the (conference) North or South. We have three offensive and four defensive starters, and a kicker.” That still leaves Carthel more than a handful of key returners, including senior offensive tackle J’Marcus Webb, a firstteam All-America pick last year and preseason selection for 2009. Webb (6-8, 320) is already on the radar by scouts and (Continued on Page 9) LSC Cross Country Prospectus Series (Editor’s Note: This is the fourth in a series of articles on the Lone Star Conference cross country teams. The articles were written by Nick Eatman of the LSC office). West Texas A&M women Kimberly Dudley enters her 14 th season as head coach of the Lady Buffs’ cross country team but to repeat last season’s second-place LSC finish, or even win the conference title, she’ll have to do so without a returning letterwinner. The Lady Buffs’ roster has no upperclassmen. There are nine freshmen and two sophomores. Allie Reyna was with the team early last season but an injury forced her to miss the entire year. She’ll return for her sophomore campaign. The other sophomore is Eddah Toroitich, a Kenyan transfer from the University of Wyoming. Angleo State men Head coach James Reid returns for his 10 th season and brings back seniors Brian Carroll and Shannon Cunningham from last year’s squad that finished sixth in the LSC championships. Cunningham was 14 th in the final conference meet while Carroll placed 18 th . Also returning are juniors Nate Gonzales and Andy Ruvalcaba and sophomores Robert Hummingbird and Randal Guinn. Colors Presentation A color guard from the Kingsville Naval Air Station provided the colors at the Javelina football game last weekend. Armed Forces Day was celebrated.
