BROWN MAKES LONG AWAITED NCAA DEBUT
One of the nation's top running backs in the Class of 2019 made his NCAA debut in the Marauders win at SMSU. Derrian Brown, the nation's 12^th ranked high school running back in 2019, signed a letter of intent with the University of Texas. Shortly after signing day, he suffered a stroke before graduating from Buford HS in Georgia. In a coma for two days, forced to undergo brain surgery and eventually needing to re-learn to walk and talk, Brown attended Texas on scholarship but was never medically cleared to play for the Longhorns, though he was cleared medically to play football. After earning his degree from UT, Brown saw limited action last season at Santa Barbara City College. He joined UMary prior to this season and earned five carries for 15 yards, including a run for 12 yards, to help the Marauders defeat the Mustangs.

While they played high school football together briefly at Mandan HS when Jablonski was a senior (Class of 2023) and Sheldon a sophomore (Class of 2025), the SMSU scoring play was the first time the pair had connected for a touchdown… Both Karsyn's and Sheldon's fathers played football for the Marauders.

HEAD COACH SHANN SCHILLINGER
Former NFL player and Baker, MT, native Shann Schillinger leads the Marauders onto the field for his third season in 2025 after taking over as UMary head coach in 2023. A former star at the University of Montana and the 8th head coach in UMary program history, Schillinger has coached in both the NCAA Division I Big Ten and Big Sky conferences and is a Montana Football Hall of Fame inductee.
 
Winning is a common theme throughout Schillinger's career. Between high school and college Schillinger's teams posted 100 victories and only seven defeats. A team captain, Schillinger won three state titles during his four years at Baker HS (2001-04) as quarterback and defensive back while coached by his uncle Don Schillinger, one of the winningest prep coaches in Montana history.
 
Dubbed "the fastest man from Baker, MT," his accolades made him a highly recruited college prospect before signing on with the Grizzlies as a safety. Schillinger helped lead the Grizzlies to two Football Championship Series (FCS) title games while also earning All-Big Sky Conference honors. Twice he was honored with the Tony Barbour Award, given annually to the "player who best exemplifies outstanding practice habits and makes an unselfish contribution to the betterment of the Grizzly football team." He ranks among the best in Montana history with 257 career takedowns and 11 career interceptions.
 
After a star-studded career with the University of Montana Grizzlies, NFL fans heard Schillinger's name called on national TV by the Atlanta Falcons in the 6th round of the 2010 NFL Draft. Drafted as the 171st overall pick, Schillinger played four years in the NFL as a safety from 2010 to 2013 with the Falcons and Tennessee Titans.
 
Schillinger's full-time coaching career began after the NFL in 2015 as a special teams and defensive backs assistant for the University of Nebraska Cornhuskers. He returned to his alma mater in Missoula to coach special teams and safeties from 2016 to 2021 and served as the team's pro scout liaison.
