Five Titans Named All-Region

Led by running back Andy Moriarty (Sr. • Mequon), the UW-Oshkosh football team placed five players on the 2007 D3Football.com All-West Region Team.

Moriarty, who was named to the First Team, was joined by offensive guard Andrew Versnik (Sr. • West Allis), tight end Kyle Kubasa (Sr. • West Allis), linebacker Eric Stenbroten (Sr. • Monticello) and cornerback Bryan Kent (Sr. • Pewaukee), who all made the Second Team.

Moriarty amassed 1,690 yards and 16 touchdowns in 300 carries on the ground to go along with 20 receptions for 243 yards and a score through the air. He closed the year as the #2 rusher in the NCAA Division III with 169 yards per contest. Moriarty also ranked sixth in the country in all-purpose yards and 14th in scoring. His career rushing yardage total is the second-best in WIAC history. Moriarty finished the season in stellar fashion, gaining at least 214 yards rushing in each of the Titans' final three games, all of which were victories. His 314 yards and three touchdowns led UW-Oshkosh to a 35-20 win over UW-Platteville on November 3 and he put up 288 yards and two scores in the Titans' 27-10 victory against UW-Stevens Point the week before. He rushed for 200 yards in a game on seven occasions in his career. Moriarty finishes with a school-record 4,496 rushing yards and 262 points. He scored a total of 43 touchdowns as a Titan.

Versnik started all 10 games for a Titan line that averaged 205.9 yards rushing per game in 2007. UW-Oshkosh's offense put up 393.2 yards per game overall. Versnik was a key piece of the unit that boasted the WIAC's top rusher in Andy Moriarty and third-leading passer in Joe Patek. The Titans' offense ranked second in the conference in pass efficiency and posted an impressive plus-13 turnover margin. Versnik started a total of 22 games in his four seasons at UW-Oshkosh.

Kubasa finished 2007 as UW-Oshkosh's second-leading receiver with 27 catches. He racked up 270 yards and scored one touchdown on the year.

He also posted four receptions in each of UW-Oshkosh's wins against Ripon College, Huntington College, and UW-River Falls. The Titans' senior tight end capped his collegiate career with 66 receptions for 672 yards and three touchdowns.

Stenbroten posted some very impressive numbers as he started all 10 games for the Titans in 2007. He finished the season with 55 tackles, 37 solo, 12.5 tackles for loss, and seven quarterback sacks. Stenbroten notched 10 tackles, including five for loss with three sacks, in UW-Oshkosh's dominating 44-6 win over Ripon College. He also recorded 10 stops, nine of them unassisted, in the Titans' 35-20 victory against UW-Platteville.
