    CATHEDRAL SPARTANS MOVING UP TO FBS, JOINING SUN BELT
    Mar 27, 2013
    Cathedral, a private university based out of Atlanta, Georgia, has announced it is leaving the Colonial Athletic Association to join the Sun Belt in 2013.

    The Spartans, who began exploring football in 2006, played their inaugural season as an FCS Independent in 2009. They join the FBS ranks with a compiled record of 10-23 under head coach George Pasey.

    "I am very excited to embark on a new chapter of our football program in the Sun Belt Conference," Cathedral chancellor Francis Gerney said. "Our student-athletes have earned the opportunity to participate at this level and we welcome the new academic and athletic relationships that will develop as a result of this partnership."

    Cathedral will begin playing Sun Belt games and will be a revenue-sharing member of the conference in 2013 and be allowed to compete for the conference title. However, the Spartans will not be eligible to play in a bowl game until 2014.

        CATHEDRAL DEFEATS SAMFORD IN FIRST GAME AS FBS MEMBER
        Sept 7, 2013
        Michael Kane-Polsen and George Pasey Jr. teamed up to make history on top of history as Cathedral won its FBS debut, defeating Sanford by the score of 42-0 Saturday at the Georgia Dome.

        The Spartans outplayed Samford from the opening kickoff and never took their foot off the gas. George Pasey Jr., son of head coach George Pasey and an LTU graduate transfer, found an early connection with wide receiver Michael Kane-Polsen which led to an end result of four touchdown receptions - breaking his own school record. Pasey also broke a record as his five touchdowns (to one interception) etched out former starter Devron Fritz.

        What It Means: The victory goes down as Cathedral's first as a member of the FBS, and for head coach George Pasey, the win registers in as his first career shutout during his four seasons in Atlanta.

        Quotable: "You look at this win against a lower-division opponent and you think, 'shoot, that was supposed to happen'. But in reality, that was the same level of competition we barely got by against just a season ago. This is without a doubt a huge way to start off our season." - UC coach George Pasey

        "Gotta tip my hat off to the guys on the sideline and in the press boxes, they put us in the perfect position to make plays and execute on the field today." - UC quarterback George Pasey Jr.

        Notable: 8 was the big number for Cathedral on Saturday as the Spartans recorded eight sacks, while eight Spartans tallied at a least one carry, and eight players caught at least one reception.

        Up Next: Cathedral continues its home stand at the Georgia Dome with an upcoming match against Chattanooga next Saturday. The Mocs fell 31-21 in their season opener against UT Martin.

          CATHEDRAL DOWNS CHATTANOOGA IN SECOND STRAIGHT WIN
          Sept 14, 2013
          Tory Pearson took eight carries for 75 yards and three touchdowns as Cathedral won their second straight game with a 45-13 blowout over the visiting Chattanooga Mocs.

          After posting a shutout the week before, the Spartans let up their season's first score as Chattanooga's senior quarterback Matt Davis rushed for his first of two touchdowns on a 29-yard keeper (followed by penalty-missed PAT). Cathedral, however, wouldn't look back as they scored 38 unanswered points before the half. Behind the arm of George Pasey Jr., the Spartans orchestrated a potent offense that forced Chattanooga to respect both the pass and run.

          The game slowed down in the second half as the Spartans rested their starters in favor for younger players. Depth became a question, especially in the secondary, as Chattanooga's Matt Davis began to rack up yardage through the air leading to two consecutive red zone trips, the second culminating in a touchdown.

          What It Means: Cathedral improves to 2-0, showing great poise early on in their transition year in the FBS. The Spartans pair up with Troy (2-0) as the only undefeated teams remaining in the Sun Belt Conference.

          Quotable: "I think (our early success) really reflects on the amount of work we put in during the spring and fall. We prepared to have results like this." - UC running back Tory Pearson

          "(Michael Kane-Polson) is fine. He was begging me to put him back out there. He'll be ready next week." - UC coach George Pasey

          Notable: Cathedral recorded 574 yards of offense, including 407 through the air, which is their most in school history. Michael Kane-Polson left the game in the second quarter with reported upper body issues, said to be both back and arm injuries. He would not return.

          Up Next: The Spartans hit the road to face West Virginia in what will be their first look against a fellow FBS team this season.

            CATHEDRAL GETS ITS EXPECTED REALITY CHECK WITH LOSS AT WEST VIRGINIA
            Sept 21, 2013
            Cathedral received a reality check Saturday on the road in Morgantown as they faced off against the Big 12's West Virginia, losing in their first contest of the season, 48-9.

            Cathedral got on the board first with a 24-yard field goal by sophomore placekicker Tanner Burnett, who would score all the Spartans' points, going 3-of-3 on the day. West Virginia struck back with 21 unanswered points, including two "Pick 6's", each thrown by George Pasey Jr., who would be sidelined for former starter Devron Fritz after throwing his third interception of the half.

            The Mountaineers took a 27-6 lead heading into the half, and returned to add 21 more points to the deficit in the second half, topped with an 83-yard touchdown run from an underutilized Andrew Buie.

            What It Means: Cathedral receives an accurate evaluation as they continue their year one journey in the FBS. With upcoming games against Florida State, Troy, and other primer Sun Belt competition, this is now the time to see out adjustments. The quarterback situation, according to head coach George Pasey, will be revisited following this game as both Pasey Jr. and Devron Fritz played, but struggled.

            Quotable: "The quarterbacks are going to battle for position every week. Both guys are reliable, and both bring something different to the table." - UC coach George Pasey

            "I talked with Coach Crane (QB's coach), and I talked with my dad. It's just the mistakes I was making. They were clear and point blank. It can't happen; not on this level." - UC quarterback George Pasey Jr.

            Notable: Michael Kane-Polson didn't record a reception until the second half. The wideout was notably helped off the field following his first reception, but returned just two plays later ... Both UC quarterbacks committed three turnovers; George Pasey Jr. recording three interceptions and Devron Fritz throwing two interceptions and fumbling away a pitch on WVU's nine yard line.

            Up Next: Cathedral gets a bye week for recovery before hosting Jacksonville State on Oct. 12 in what will be their third and final game against an FCS opponent this season.

              SPARTANS DEFEAT JACKSONVILLE STATE IN DEFENSIVE SHOWDOWN
              Oct 5, 2013
              They may be an FBS squad now, but for Cathedral, defeating No. 21 Jacksonville State stands as the young program's first ever win over a ranked opponent.

              A failed two-point conversion left the needed points off the board for JSU following their first touchdown of the game, prevailing the Spartans to a 14-12 victory. Cathedral had contained the Gamecock's heavily reliant rushing attack for much of the game, holding standout running back to 125 yards on a workload of 32 carries. On offense, they played both quarterbacks George Pasey Jr. (who started) and Devron Fritz, neither of them ever finding rhythm.

              With Pasey Jr. struggling through the air, Cathedral leaned on Fritz to open room on the ground with a spread option offense. The scheme worked, as the Spartans posted 170 yards rushing on 32 attempts.

              What It Means: The quarterback conversation will roll on for Cathedral, much to the dismay of head coach George Pasey. The Spartans, however, pick up their third win of the season, all of which have come against FCS opponents. To be brutally honest, this could very well be their final win of the season.

              Quotable: "We knew coming into this game that we'd play both (quarterbacks), but we're looking for continuity. I'm not much of a fan of switching up guys every other play. Not my style. But in order to not do that, one of our guys has got to step up." - UC coach George Pasey

              "We love playing at the Dome, we're not going to lose any games here." - UC running back Tory Pearson

              Notable: After starting the season with a five touchdown performance, senior quarterback George Pasey Jr. has thrown four interceptions to no touchdowns ... Michael Kane-Polson tallied 101 yards of offense, rushing for 50 yards and a score while hauling in three receptions for 51 yards ... UC recorded a total of 13 tackles for loss.

              Up Next: Cathedral heads to Tallahassee next for undoubtedly its biggest challenge of the season against Florida State. The Seminoles (3-1) rank No. 16 in the both the Coaches and AP Poll.

                RIAN WATKINS-REED NAMED CONFERENCE POTY

                Rian Watkins-Reed, a nickleback from Conyers, Georgia, has been named the Sun Belt Defensive Player of the Week for his performance against Jacksonville State during week six. Watkins-Reed recorded eight tackles, two for a loss, and intercepted a pass which would lead to running back Tory Pearson's seven-yard touchdown. Rian-Watkins joins teammate Michael Kane-Polson (week one) as the only two Spartans to be honored this season.
                SPARTANS ADD ANOTHER QUARTERBACK

                Among the Spartans early commitments is two-star quarterback Amir Thomas of Lithia Springs, Georgia. Thomas is rated the No. 29 dual-threat quarterback in the country, and is No. 87 overall. He selected Cathedral over Memphis, FAU, FIU, and East Carolina.
                PASEY BENCHES SON IN FAVOR OF PREVIOUS STARTER, DEVRON FRITZ

                Sophomore quarterback Devron Fritz will take the opening snap Saturday against Florida State, according to head coach George Pasey. The fifth-year head coach benches his son, Georgia Pasey Jr., in the process in what he calls "more of a strategic approach than anything". After debuting with a record-setting five passing touchdown performance against Samford, Pasey Jr. has thrown four interceptions to no touchdowns. While Fritz has also struggled to throw, he has provided a spark on the ground.
                HIGH CHANCE OF RAIN IN TALLAHASSEE ON SATURDAY

                Meteorologists are predicting a heavy chance of rain and possible thunderstorms Saturday in Tallahassee. Cathedral kicks off against the No. 15-ranked Florida State Seminoles at 3:30 PM EST. The game will be broadcasted on SEC Network; the Spartans second regionally televised game of the season.

                  Senior running back Tory Pearson carries the ball against Florida State on Saturday, Oct. 12. Pearson was held to a season-low 23 yards rushing on six carries, also a season-low.

                  CATHEDRAL TAKES BEATING AT FLORIDA STATE
                  Oct 12, 2013
                  Last week Cathedral played and defeated an FCS ranked squad. This week they turned tides and faced a ranked FBS squad, No. 15 Florida State, and got humiliated 51-7 at Doak Campbell Stadium in Tallahassee.

                  The game was delayed two minutes into the second quarter when thunderstorms hit the area. The Seminoles used the break to snap out of their slow start and expel 35 unanswered points against Cathedral following an opening quarter that saw them score just once.

                  Cathedral never found an answer, neither on offense or defense. Devron Firtz got his first start since Nov. 10, 2012 and though the sophomore quarterback threw for 259 yards, he topped it with four interceptions. On the ground, the Spartans leading rusher was Tory Pearson with just 23 yards on six carries. While the end result was expected by every Vegas line, the humility could be seen as the Spartans exited the sold-out stadium in Tallahassee.

                  What It Means: Cathedral drops to 0-2 against fellow FBS teams heading into conference play in the Sun Belt. The Spartans were outscored 99-16 in the two contests, both against Power-5 schools.

                  Quotable: "We ran into a great team and we were outmatched. It's as simple as that. I feel we let up towards the end, sure, but what more can you really say?" - UC coach George Pasey

                  "Games like this, they're tough, but the good takeaway is we just played on TV. That's exposure, people seeing the program." - UC wide receiver Michael Kane-Polson

                  Notable: Michael Kane-Polson played a quarter with a dislocated shoulder ... The contest was televised on SEC Network, Cathedral's second televised showing ... The Spartans have not thrown a passing touchdown since week three's game against Chattanooga. Quarterbacks George Pasey Jr. and Devron Firtz have since combined for 12 interceptions.

                  Up Next: Cathedral embarks on its inaugural season in the Sun Belt with an opening match at Troy (4-2). Both teams began the season at 2-0.

                    PASEY JR.: "I'VE WATCHED COUNTLESS HOURS OF FILM"

                    Senior quarterback George Pasey Jr. told local press on Wednesday he had watched "countless hours of film", including last Saturday's loss at Florida State where he attempted just a single pass in his season's first non-start. Pasey Jr., a former Louisiana Tech quarterback, was benched last week in favor of former starter Devron Fritz, who threw four interceptions against the Seminoles. Pasey Jr., eager to regain position, has thrown for 748 yards this season on 48-of-93 passing, including five touchdowns and five interceptions.
                    PEARSON SUFFERS SEASON/CAREER-ENDING INJURY DURING PRACTICE

                    Tory Pearson suffered a torn rotator cuff Tuesday during a full-contact practice and will miss the remainder of the season, effectively ending the fifth-year senior's career, according to coach George Pasey. Pearson, Cathedral's all-time leading rusher (1,455 yards), played four games this season, rushing for 360 yards and five touchdowns. Expected to step up is junior running back Myles Brady (22 att, 88 yds) and senior Davion Cobbs (10 att, 42 yds).

                    Note: Had no idea this injury occurred during the Florida State game.

                      Senior quarterback George Pasey Jr. attempts a pass against Troy on Oct. 19, 2013. The Louisiana Tech graduate trasfer threw for 320 yards, three touchdowns and an interception.

                      CATHEDRAL LOSES 35-31 HEARTBREAKER TO TROY
                      Oct 17, 2013
                      George Pasey Jr. passed for 320 yards and three touchdowns in his return to the starting position only to fall short as Troy routed Cathedral in a 35-31 thriller Saturday at Veterans Memorial Stadium.

                      The Spartans led the game until early in the fourth quarter when Troy's senior running back Khary Franklin scored on a one-yard touchdown to knot the game at 28 apiece following a successful two-pint conversion. Cathedral quickly fired back with a 36 yard reception to Michael Kane-Polson, putting them at their opponents' 39 yard line, eventually leading to a 24-yard field goal make by Tanner Burnett on fourth and two.

                      Troy opened their ensuing drive with trickery, causing Cathedral to jump offsides on the opening pair of plays. A followup 40 yard reception by Eric Thomas, his eighth catch, neared the Trojans to closer to their red zone, and five plays later quarterback Corey Robinson found the end zone with a two-yard keeper.

                      Robinson had a career high 476 yards passing and three touchdowns, his main receiver being Thomas who caught eight balls for 158 yards.

                      What It Means: Cathedral drops to .500 at 3-3 as the team continues its quest for its first intra-FBS win.

                      Quotable:

                      George Pasey Jr., senior quarterback
                      "We just played the conference's best team and not only competed, but almost won. That says a lot about us, especially when we're the underdog in almost every game this season."

                      Michael Kane-Polson, senior wide receiver
                      "I think there was a lot of progress from last week. It's a step in the right direction, but definitely not the way we wanted it to end."

                      Notable: Michael Kane-Polson tallies his third +100 yard receiving performance of the season ... Cathedral lost the following players to injury: defensive end D.D. Franklin (knee) and free safety Keenan Lloyd (abdominal), both starters.

                      Up Next: Following a bye week, the Spartans continue its road trip with a matchmagainst Western Kentucky (4-2) at L.T. Smith Stadium in Bowling Green, Kentucky.

                        Senior free safety Keenan Lloyd intercepts a pass by Western Kentucky's Demarcus Smith during the second quarter. The pick was Lloyd's first of the season, and the Spartans' fifth as a team.

                        Nov 2, 2013
                        Cathedral's proficient pass offense was countered with the country's best pass defense Saturday as the Spartans fell 28-10 at Western Kentucky.

                        Cathedral's George Pasey Jr. threw a career-high four interceptions in the loss, three coming in the second half which saw the Western Kentucky offense erupt for 21 unanswered points after trailing by a field goal. Senior wide receiver Ronnie Mixon caught a six-yard touchdown pass from Pasey Jr. to give Cathedral its first touchdown with 2:19 remaining in the third quarter.

                        WKU cornerback Arius Wright extended the Hiltoppers lead with a 55-yard "Pick-6" to seal all scoring.

                        What It Means: Cathedral drops to 0-2 in conference, and 3-4 overall.

                        Quotable:

                        UC coach George Pasey
                        On missed opportunities throughout the game
                        "They killed us, especially the drop balls. Dropped two, I believe, just outside the endzone. Things like that can't happen, could've been an entirely different ball game if we'd made the play."

                        "Guys continued to play hard, just have to harness those moments."

                        Notable: Cathedral led 3-0 throughout the entire first half ... Fullback Adrian Gates became the Spartans' feature back following the loss of Myles Brady (concussion) ... Michael Kane-Polson recorded his fourth +100 yard receiving performance of the season ... Cathedral lost the following players to injury: cornerback/return man Diante Dobzinski (back) and running back Myles Brady (concussion), both starters ... Western Kentucky played without starting quarterback James Mauro who has missed the past two weeks with back spasms.

                        Up Next: The Spartans return home next week to host Texas State (3-4, 0-3 Sun Belt) on homecoming.

                          TWO SPARTANS TO MISS HOMECOMING GAME

                          Defensive back Diante Dobzinski and running back Myles Brady will both miss Cathedral's upcoming homecoming game against Texas State, according to coach George Pasey. Dobzinski, Cathedral's lead cornerback, suffered a back strain against Western Kentucky while Myles Brady left the field with a concussion. Probable return dates for both players, according to Pasey, stand at 1-2 weeks.
                          TEAM HOLDS PLAYERS-ONLY MEETING TUESDAY

                          Sitting at 3-4 and coming off back-to-back losses, the Cathedral Spartans are pulling out all the stops to pick up its first intra-FBS win. On Tuesday, the team held a players-only meeting, tight end Howard Townsend III told local press Wednesday. "We held a meeting, just us as players, to really revisit some of the things we said over the summer, all the goals we had. A lot of guys spoke up and I think that says a lot. It was just an overall great time for us to all reset, get back to 0."
                          SPARTANS TO HOST SEVERAL RECRUITS ON HOMECOMING WEEKEND

                          Cathedral will welcome in a reported seven recruits this weekend in its culminating homecoming game against Texas State. Headlining the group will be Tyree Hawkins, an Atlanta native who will travel the short distance over to Cathedral. Hawkins ranks as Georgia's No. 4 defensive end and No. 33 in the country. The 6-foot-1, 263 pound prospect is touting offers from Cathedral, Memphis, NC State, South Alabama, and Wake Forest.

                            SPARTANS DEFEAT TEXAS STATE IN FIRST-EVER FBS WIN
                            Nov 9, 2013
                            Cathedral was tabbed favorites over a fellow FBS team for the first time of the season and did not disappoint, defeating Texas State 41-24 Saturday at the Georgia Dome in culmination of homecoming week.

                            The Spartans fired out strong, scoring on their first two offensive drives. Texas State regained ground in the second quarter with two touchdowns of their own along with a field goal to go into the half trailing 20-17. A key interception inside the end zone by Rian Watkins-Reed prevented the Bobcats from taking a lead.

                            After a half of shaky defense, Cathedral delivered a shutout third quarter topped with a 54-yard "Pick 6" by sophomore strong safety Steph Warren, the Spartans' first of the season. That along with a seven-yard touchdown by freshman Casey Leuck put the Spartans on top 34-17.

                            Texas State opened the fourth quarter with a 19-yard touchdown on a screen pass from Tyler Arndt to running back Tim Gay. Cathedral responded on the ensuing possession with the game's final score, a 15-yard touchdown on a jet sweep by senior receiver Michael Kane-Polson.

                            What It Means: Cathedral defeats its first ever FBS opponent while snapping a three-game losing streak to improve to 4-4 on the season, and 4-0 at home.

                            Quotable:

                            Senior quarterback George Pasey Jr.
                            On winning in front of homecoming crowd
                            "It's always a great feeling to win in front of your home crowd and this being homecoming only made it better. We had a lot of support out there and they gave this place a great atmosphere."

                            Freshman running back Casey Leuck
                            On his increased role
                            "Coach called my name and you best bet I was ready to play. I've been working hard, waiting for moments like tonight."

                            Notable: Cathedral attempted two fake punts in the game; first a successful run by Adrian Gates and later a failed throw by punter Isaac Craig ... Cathedral kicker Tanner Burnett missed two PAT's after beginning the season a perfect 23-23 ... Running back Casey Leuck, who did not start, scored on his first carry of the game. Leuck's 129 yards rushing was the most by any Spartan this season ... Michael Kane-Polson recorded his fifth +100 yard receiving performance of the season ... Cathedral lost the following players to injury: outside linebacker Brandon Mayhew (concussion).

                            Up Next: The Spartans go on the road to play next Saturday at UL Monroe (4-4, 2-1).

                              SPARTANS RETURN TO ATLANTA WITH VICTORY OVER UL MONROE
                              Nov 16, 2013
                              Senior quarterback George Pasey Jr. threw for 325 yards and two touchdowns as Cathedral defeated UL Monroe 34-17 Saturday at Malone Stadium.

                              The Spartans took a commanding 31-10 lead at halftime before pumping the breaks in the second half, posting only a field goal while ULM scored only their second touchdown. An efficient performance from Pasey Jr. allowed Cathedral to move the ball with ease, finishing the contest with 488 yards of offense - their second straight game with over 400.

                              Cathedral's co-defensive captain D.D. Franklin led a unit that limited the ULM Warhawks to just 285 yards of offense. Cornerback Amir Valentine added an interception against Kolton Browning, a top-tier quarterback of the Sun Belt Conference.

                              What It Means: Cathedral improves to a winning record at 5-4, while also picking up their first road win of the season.

                              Quotable:

                              UC coach George Pasey
                              On winning on the road
                              "We were dialed in for this one. We practiced well all week, so I feel we were really prepared to come in here and take care of business."

                              On the performance of George Pasey Jr.
                              "We've gone over a lot of things these past few weeks. He's reading the field, losing the tunnel vision, and making overall better decisions. It's smart football; exactly what will win us games."

                              Notable: The Spartans were favored for the second consecutive game ... Cathedral tallied no turnovers for the first time of the season ... Michael Kane-Polson recorded his sixth +100 yard receiving performance of the season. Kane-Polson recorded 218 all-purpose yards (140 receiving, 26 rushing, 52 kick return) ... Freshman running back Casey Leuck started over Myles Brady, who returned from a concussion ... After a muffed and later fumbled kick return (overturned), freshman return man Marquis Randall was replaced for the previous starter Michael Kane-Polson ... UL Monroe had its score on a fumbled kickoff overturned when refs declared the runner's knee down ... A season high nine players ran the ball for Cathedral.

                              Up Next: The Spartans continue its road tenure in Louisiana with a contest against UL Lafayette (4-5, 2-2) next week.
