NSIC Division Standings

Head Coach Steve Laqua saw his young team continue to progress in Saturday’s game at Minnesota State. The Dragons were within 7-0 early in the fourth quarter against the nation’s No. 22-ranked team.

“Our defense did a great job executing the game plan,” Laqua said. “It was a bend but not break approach. I was proud of the way our guys played. The intensity was better and the effort was better.”

The coach was pleased with his team’s execution throughout the first three quarters of the game in holding the Mavericks to only seven points. The Dragons also forced two turnovers.

“Our execution was better,” Laqua said. “That certainly made a difference in the first three quarters. The defense was better, third-down wise, and we were able to get off the field. The offense was picking up some first downs. The first half was good; we needed to get off to a good start.”

Mankato pushed the lead to 10-0 with a 39-yard field goal just 1:11 into the final quarter. After forcing a Dragon punt, the Mavericks marched 57 yards on five plays and scored on another Brozovich touchdown pass to make it 17-0 with 9:26 left.

“There’s a certain level of confidencethat our guys can take from today,” Laqua said. “We are getting better each week. The biggest thing, we’ve got to continue to keep doing that. Our execution has got to continue to get better. It was a step in the right direction, but we’re not where we want to be right now. We have better football to play in front of us and it’s up to us as coaches to see that our guys do that.”

2012 HIGHLIGHTS• Laqua signed 23 recruits on his first full signing day on Feb. 1.

COACHING RESUME• Steve Laqua was named Head Coach in the spring of 2011, becoming the 17th Football Coach in the 93-year history of the program. 2012 is his 6th year as a head coach and the 2nd at the collegiate level.• In his first season, Laqua led the Dragons to a 2-9 record including his first game as a collegiate head coach and an overtime win on homecoming.• Laqua coached four players to the All-NSIC team, one to the first team, one to the second, and two to honorable mention.• Laqua spent four season as the Shanley Deacons head coach prior to joining MSUM.

COACHING BIOSteve Laqua joined the Dragon coaching ranks as the 17th Head Coach in school history in the spring of 2011, taking the helm of the football program in its 92nd year in existence. He came to the Dragons after a turning around the Fargo Shanley High School program, as it’s head coach for four seasons.

In his first season, Laqua led the Dragons to a 2-9 record including an opening-day victory and a thrilling overtime win on homecoming. Four players were named to the All-Northern Sun Intercol-legiate Conference team while making a national impact. Jeff Schuette, named to the All-NSIC Second Team, was eighth in the country in tackles followed closely by Tyler Brody, named to the All-NSIC Honorable Mention Team, who was 18th. Laqua signed 23 recruits during his first full offseason to prepare his team for the 2012 season.

Prior to his reign at Shanley, the Deacons had two winless seasons, and under Laqua’s guidance became North Dakota State Football Champions during his third year (2009). The team won a tight battle over Devils Lake, 31-30. In 2010, he coached the Deacons to their second state title, as the team topped Devils Lake on a field goal as time expired, 24-21.

Laqua was honored as the the 2009 and 2010 North Dakota High School AA Coach of the Year. During the 2009 season, the Deacon’s began their 20-game winning streak, a streak that was ac-tive when Laqua resigned his position.

Prior to joining the prep-ranks, Laqua served as the Running Backs, Tight Ends and Punt Team Coach at North Dakota State from January 2005-March 2007, where he coached five All-Ameri-cans including Tyler Roehl and Mike Dragosavich.

While at NDSU, Laqua was one of the team’s top recruiters, as he was heavily involved in recruit-ing players from North Dakota, South Dakota and western Minnesota.

He also served as the Bison’s academic coordinator where he implemented a program that put an emphasis on study skills and a college degree. As a result, the team had 21-Academic All-Confer-ence players during his two-year stint at NDSU.

For the 2004 season, Laqua was the Minnesota Crookston Golden Eagles’ Offensive Coordinator, where he led an offense that led the NSIC in rushing yards, yards per attempt and least turnovers. During that season, he directly coached an NCAA DII All-American Freder Rollins, who was also named a National Player of the Week during the season.

The Golden Eagle offense set records for rushing yards in a season, as well as single game marks. He directed the Golden Eagle offense that led the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference in rush-ing yards, yards per attempt and least turnovers per game.

His coaching experience also extends to one season at St. Olaf College, in Northfield, Minn., where he was the Outside Linebackers Coach. He also served his first stint at NDSU as a Graduate As-sistant Coach for tight ends in 2002-03.

Laqua had a decorated career at North Dakota State as a Division II student-athlete, playing quarterback for the Bison. He was an Academic All-Conference member for three years as well as graduated with honors. He earned his Masters of Education from NDSU in 2007.
