Season ends after two games for lowly Wisconsin-Superior
The Associated Press
SUPERIOR, Wis. — Players wept and slammed fists on toocker-room walls, then marched off to an unnecessary practice after learning Tuesday that the University of Wisconsin-Superior canceled its football season.
"I feel cheated, like the rug's been pulled out from under me and the team," all-conference running back Tom Belanger said.
Superior, with only five victories in five seasons and having difficulty attracting players for autumn tryouts, announced Tuesday its 1992 season was canceled after two games and returned to matches to a shrunken, overtaxed roster.
"We want to play." Belanger said.
"No one asked us about it."
Marc Sienkiewicz, a tackle out of East High School in nearby Duluth, Minn., has his teammates did not care if they were outnumbered by roses, the eight other universities in the Wisconsin State University Conference.
"I was brought up at East and was taught you only need 11," Sienkiewicz said.
Some observers predicted the cancellation would doom chances that Superior, with 2,200 students and usually the last-place team in the WSC, could attract enough player confidence to resume play next year.
For tryouts this year, coach Dan Loussain said he invited 99 players, realistically expected 65 candidates and got only 49.
The season began with nine players scholastically ineligible. Six players were sidelined indefinitely with the team's 13-3 non-conference loss to Augsburg.
That reduced the available roster to 28 players, and several of them were questionable for next weekend's conference opener against the University of Wisconsin-Stout, athletic director Pat Dolan said.
The university won't compromise the health and safety of its student athletes under any circumstances, she said.
By canceling the schedule prior to the season's third game, the university hoped players could retain a year's salary under NCAA rules. Dolan said.
Woods questioned whether Superior could resurrect football in 1993.
Asked if the university would resume football next year, Dolan said, "I don't know the answer to that."
"When you burn someone like you burn this team, you're going to have difficulty getting anyone to come back," he said.
Mike McCormick, a freshman from La Crosse, Wis. starting at strong safety, said the players were the last to know.
"People were yelling and screaming. They couldn't believe it," M.Cormick said of the closed-door, 20-minute-room meeting with Loussain.
Former Kansas State assistants to meet Saturday as head coaches
The Yellowjackets (1-1) have not won a conference championship since 1946, the longest drought in the WHISK They were 2-61 last year, 1-8 in 1990, 1-9 in 1989 and 0-10 in 1988.

COLLEGE STATION, Texas — Missouri coach Bob Stull and Texas &M coach R.C. Slocum meet again Saturday.
0. Five Texas A&M will be looking to stretch its record to 4-0 for the first time since 1978. Missouri will be out even its record after an opening loss.
No matter the outcome, it will be a reunion of two good buddies and a time to recall a vow they made as state assistants at Kansas State in 1970.
"We had this pact that whoever was the first to get a head job would hire the other," Slocum said. "We discussed our careers over the years, and I decided that I would wait for the (major college) job I wanted."
Stull made two calls to Slocum, first when he became head coach at the
University of Massachusetts and again when he became the coach at Texas-El Paso.
Slocum turned him down both times.
"He called and said: 'Slokes, I'm taking the U. Mass job. Do you remember the agreement we made? You've got to come with me," Slocum said. "I told him I didn't believe I'd fit in in Massachusetts."
Slocum also recalled Stull's call from El Paso.
"He said, 'I'm going to give you one more chance to be a man of your word.' I thought he was not saving Texas. "Socium said, "I told him I must have Texas A&M for Texas-El Paso."
Each coach eventually got the job he wanted. Slocum became head coach at Texas A&M the same week Stull took the Missouri job.
Both recall their beginnings in Kansas State as some of the happiest
times of their lives.
"We hit it off right away." Stul said. "We lived in apartments right next to each other and spent just about every minute of most days together.
"We'd have to go in as soon as they got the film and cut the offense and defense apart and put them on reels. We broke down films and made cards and all that before the offensive and defensive guys came in.
"The amazing thing was R.C. and I used to think it was the greatest thing in the world. Real smart, hull? They had us convinced ... It was like painting the fence in Tom Sawyer."
The coaches' paths have crossed since Kansas State. They tried to recruit the same player during Slocum's one season as defensive coordinator at Southern California while Stull was at Washington. "The kid didn't go either place." Slocum said.
