Football team claims most all-Ivy awards

and Jed Walentas The Ivy league schedule concluded last Saturday, as each team in the Ancient Eight played its last game of the 1994 season. Penn came back from a 14-0 deficit to pull out an 18-14 win at Cornell and complete its second consecutive undefeated Ivy-title run. The win was also Penn's 21st consecutive victory, enough to break the Division I-AA record of 20 set by Holy Cross. But Penn's domination did not end on the field last Saturday -- it continued when the Quakers dominated the all-Ivy selections announced yesterday. At the head of the class was senior linebacker Pat Goodwillie, who was honored with the Asa S. Bushnell Cup. This award has been given annually to the Ancient Eight's top performer for the past 25 seasons. Goodwillie is only the fifth defensive player to win the award. The inside linebacker from Ada, Mich., was the cornerstone to a Pennsylvania defense which led the nation in almost every key statistical category. In coach Al Bagnoli's 5-2 system, he recorded 65 solo tackles and assisted on 47 more for a team-high 112 tackles. This was the second consecutive year he went over the 100 mark. Goodwillie also ranks second on the Quakers' all-time list. In addition to Goodwillie, seven other Quakers were named to the first-team all-Ivy squad. Included in this group was senior defensive end Michael "Pup" Turner. The Penn co-captain amassed 57 tackles and forced a critical Big Red fumble late in the game Saturday in Ithaca. Other members of the Quakers' defense to receive first-team honors were cornerback Jamie Daniels and nose tackle Chris Johnson, who are both seniors. Daniels led Penn this year with four interceptions while Johnson recorded 31 tackles and three sacks. On the offensive side of the ball, three seniors and a junior represent the Red and Blue on the first team. Leading the way is tailback Terrance Stokes. The senior ranked second in the Ivies and 14th nationally this year with 116.9 yards rushing per game. The co-captain is second on Penn's all-time rushing list with 2,876 yards, and only the second Quaker to rush for more than 1,000 yards in consecutive seasons. Pete Giannakoulis, Penn's third captain, was a leader for the team throughout his time at Franklin Field. The Brockton, Mass., native started almost every game of his career and anchored a dominant offensive line. Andy Glockner, a fifth-year senior, led the nation with 1.6 field goals per game. He connected for four field goals against Columbia on Oct. 15 and has split the uprights 25 times -- more than any other Quaker kicker. The only Penn junior on the first team was All-American wideout Miles Macik. Macik led the Ancient Eight in receptions per game (6.7) for the second consecutive year. In only his second varsity season, Macik became Penn's all-time leader in both receptions and touchdowns. The star receiver has yet to lose a game and has started all 19 contests. Also honored were several Quakers named to the second team -- junior defensive end Tom McGarrity, senior linebacker Kevin DeLuca, senior safety Nick Morris, junior cornerback Kevin Allen and senior offensive lineman Mike Teller. Redshirt freshman quarterback Mark DeRosa was given honorable mention by the Ivy coaches.
