Speakers
Steve Hagen New York Jets
Hagen was a wide receiver at Cal-Lutheran from
1979-83, where he earned NAIA All-America honors as a senior. He earned a Bachelor of Arts in
business. He was hired by the New York Jets after
spending the previous four seasons as the tight
ends coach for Cleveland. He also coached tight
ends for the Cleveland Browns from 2000-03 before moving to quarterbacks coach in 2004. Prior
to his work in the NFL, Hagen served as the head
coach at Wartburg (Iowa) College in 1996, guiding
the team to a 7-3 record, as the school ranked
eighth in Division III in total offense. He moved
on to be offensive coordinator and quarterbacks
coach at the University of California from 19992000. He spent two seasons at San Jose State University as offensive coordinator, quarterbacks coach
and recruiting coordinator (1997- 98).
Mike Hagen Cleveland Browns
Brothers; Steve and Mike Hagen
A Business Management graduate from California Lutheran, Mike was inducted into Cal Lutheran’s Hall of
Fame in 2007 and was enshrined in the Ventura County Sports Hall of Fame in 1998. A receiver at Cal Lutheran,
Hagen earned Miller Brewing Company’s Southern California Player of the Year and AFCA Kodak Division II All
American Team in 1979 and was voted to NAIA All American 1st Team in 1978 and 1979, after setting single season and career receiving records for his university during those years. Bringing 27 years experience in the NFL in
various executive and player personnel capacities, Hagen played a key role in evaluating and selecting talent resulting in Super Bowl teams - Atlanta (XXXIII), Washington (XXVI), Denver (XXII & XXIV), Dallas (XXII and
XXIII). He has learned from icons such as Hall Fame coach Tom Landry, Dan Reeves, and Joe Gibbs. Currently,
Mike is a Senior Personnel Associate for the Cleveland Browns, dabbles in Real Estate and is a Strategic Consultant
for Competitive Sports Analysis.
John Gilbert Luebtow
Glass Sculptor - “Blue Slipper Guy”
John Gilbert Luebtow graduated with a BA from Cal Lutheran in 1966.
Since his graduation he has additionally obtained two distinct MFAs from
UCLA in ceramics and glass, becoming one of the most respected names in
contemporary glass sculpture. Luebtow has devoted much of his career to
teaching in Los Angeles and completing major commissions for public and
private corporations including Hewlett Packard (HP), ARCO, American Airlines, NESTLE (Carnation), and SCRIPPS Research Institute. In terms of
Cal Lutheran’s football traditions, John’s “aura” emerged in 1964 when the
Kingsmen traveled to Colorado to face a very tough Colorado College. It was
John’s best game with Cal Lutheran winning 29-6. When the team was leaving after the game, the motel maid found a dusty, dirty old pair of women’s
blue slippers in John’s room and this became “the mystical good luck charm”
that set the stage for multiple years of winning seasons, national rankings
and a national championship.

LuBall ‘78: Don Kindred, Dan Buckley, Dan Craviotto, Steve Dann, John Craviotto, Gary Trumbauer, Mike Hagen.
“We Few, We Happy Few, We Band of Brothers”
T
his notable passage is from William Shakespear’s play, Henry V,
Act IV, in which King Henry’s cousin, Westmoreland, as the
English troops were preparing for the Battle of Agincourt against
the French, dismays that the English are highly outnumbered and that
the French knights are bigger, more skilled and more
heavily armoured. King Henry rises to the occasion
and speaks inspirationally, “…the fewer men, the
greater share of honor”. ..and …”We few, we happy
few, we band of brothers”…will be victorious and each year feast and
remember. Through Henry’s words and example, the English troops found
“a reserve of courage” to deliver an extraordinary victory against all odds.
This certainly sounds like Coach Shoup and the Kingsmen’s tradition!

The Beginnings
tice in the bus affectionately called “e White Tornado” and driven
by Norm Denison, was an adventure in survival in and of itself.
While the first team began its inaugural season with no home
field, Orville Dahl, Bob Shoup, and representatives from the Los
Angeles Times, were able to attract a new NFL team, the Dallas
Cowboys, to the campus for their summer camp. Working with the
Cowboys, the University was able to fast track the development of
better locker room and training facilities as well as the creation of
the first home field and adjacent practice fields on the north campus. For the next 26 years these two organizations, the CLU Kingsmen, and the Dallas Cowboys, grew into very competitive and
nationally recognized teams. Each team reached the pinnacle of

CLU – A History & Culture That
Has Fostered Exceptional Winning
Percentages & Exeptional Coaching
T
he history of California Lutheran Kingsmen football
began with our legendary Coach, Bob Shoup, who established a strong foundation for winning and for
coaching built upon the values and characteristics fostered by
his parents, his mentors and his faith. is approach towards
coaching and life among our own “band of brothers” has continued to endue in our players and in many players that have
taken these lessons into their own coaching careers.
Here are just a few out of over 200 Kingsmen coaches…and Band of Brothers.

The Mystique of The Blue Slippers
By John Leubtow
S
uperstition and ritual in sports is
found in all sports venues. It is
generally something initially developed in hindsight, almost by accident
and then called upon in future events.
Such superstitions arise when an athlete
or team has an exceptional performance
and then tries to establish “cause and effect” by trying to link any odd or unusual circumstances at the time with the
performance breakthrough itself. After
this link is made in the mind of the athlete or athletes, through visualization or
guided imagery, which today is the very
basis of sports psychology, the athlete or
athletes call upon this “mojo” before
each competition.
e ritual mystique of the Blue Slippers at then California Lutheran College
began early in the 1964 season when our
three-year-old football program reached
its lowest ebb. Going in to the season,
the young Kingsmen had won eight and
lost eight after two seasons of suspect
competition. Now, after a stunning 13-8
win over La Verne College, CLC was in
Cvijanovich summons
the midst of a depressing losing streak.
We lost to Occidental 28-7, were blanked by Southern Utah 26-0 and
humiliated by Claremont- Mudd 28-13.
e next game was to be our longest road trip to play a very tough
Colorado College team, and it was their homecoming game. In early
October, the team flew into Colorado Springs and was met by an old
city transit bus. We were taken to the edge of town to a very tired, single-story motel. e extra bags were put in the garage storage area
among beat-up furniture, lost-and-found articles and miscellaneous
hotel supplies. It had been a very long day, and we were tired and did
not have much spirit or enthusiasm. We had eaten on the plane so the
next order of business was to get back on the bus and go five miles
downtown where the campus was located for a practice session. Many
players had to stand on the crowded bus.
e college was on a beautiful site and the leaves had begun to change
on the trees. We got off the bus below campus at the stadium field level
in our game uniforms. e air was crisp and clean. As we began to
loosen up and go through a light practice, our spirits began to rise and a
vocal camaraderie began to assert itself. We were not intimidated but
were like school kids on an outing.
is scene was then overshadowed from above with band music and
cheers. Colorado College was having its homecoming pep rally. Clearly
we could hear from the PA system that …”this team from California is
in the midst of a losing streak and we have beaten them before and we
expect them to be an easy opponent.” With that, we Kingsmen began to
shout and cheer and the entire Colorado College student body and
alumni came over to the edge of the stadium to see what was going on.
e next day was fabulous. Sunny, but cool. We cleaned out our
rooms, loaded up our gear and got on the bus to go to the college to tape
and dress for the game. at Saturday we controlled the Colorado College gridiron, and as we found out after our victory, the game was
recorded for local television to be played that evening. For me personally
20
it was my best single game at Cal Lutheran,
with over 120 yards rushing, a long punt return and one touchdown. e final score was
29-6. e line of John Paris, Fred Kemp, Jim
Tschida, Cary Washburn, Roger Young and
Jerry Palmquist, and Safety / Wide Receiver
Skip Mooney and others was stunning. Everything went right. e holes were there for us
on offense and not for Colorado on Defense.
After the losing games we experienced prior
to this game and as history has shown, this
was the turning point in our team’s confidence and morale and set the stage for the
Blue Slippers and the beginning of multiple
years of winning seasons, national rankings
and a national championship.
at Saturday evening some of us on the
team found a “local watering hole” for a little
“imbibing” and to watch ourselves on TV. Although we discovered that we were not so
welcome sitting there imbibing and cheering
ourselves on as we “devoured the locals”, but,
fear not, for when you enter an establishment
with “the big boys”…nobody bothers you.
e next morning as we boarded the bus to
depart…the Blue Slippers…entered our lives.
We were all seated and ready to leave when
Coach Shoup and Coach Garrison entered
the Mojo...
the bus laughing. Standing in front of the
bus, Coach Shoup honored us with accolades about his pleasure
with the victory and then he held up this scummey, dirty, disgusting
old pair of women’s slippers and told us the cleaning woman had
found them in my room and wanted to return them to me. Everybody laughed, but with this bit of humorous injection from the
coaches and the joy of a great upset victory under our belts, the appearance of the Blue Slippers became identified with a magic moment in our lives…a magic performance, and I became “the keeper
of the Blue Slippers” until 1967.
e next week, CLC routed George Fox 59-0. We then won 33-9
over Cal Tech and 14-8 over a very tough Cal State team. e following week, we went to Pomona but the slippers stayed home and
we lost 14-8. e legend began. e last game was our Homecoming, and we beat UC Riverside 7-0. After that for some strange reason they became like a “mystical good luck charm”, even being hung
up in the locker room with a white shoelace for players to touch or
give homage to at game time. en suddenly, they mysteriously vanished.
During the next 10 years, CLU won eight state championships
and a national title in 1971. In 1975 the CLU Kingsmen were the
#1 rated team in both the NAIA Division II and the NCAA Division III, and even today we virtually control our conference and are
nationally ranked.
POSTSCRIPT
e Blue Slippers “good luck symbol” has been with the Kingsmen ever since they were found. Although no one is ready to “bet
the farm” that they hold a mysterious power that transformed the
Kingsmen into the powerhouse they have become, no one is also
willing to question this possibility.
e legend will continue…
The Tradition Continues
Coach McEnroe
In April 2007, Ben McEnroe (Class of ’93) became the first alumni football coach to lead the
Kingsmen. One of the primary goals McEnroe set for the program was to embrace the rich history
and tradition of CLC/CLU football. Alumni players are welcomed inside the locker room before
every game, and Coach Shoup addresses the team before the Homecoming contest, holding an undefeated record since the establishment of this tradition. At the conclusion of the 2007 football awards
banquet, Coach Shoup presented Coach McEnroe with a “new” pair of Blue Slippers that the team
has embraced, and the Kingsmen have won approximately 75% of their games since the Slippers returned to the locker room.
e last seven seasons have been the most successful in CLU’s NCAA era. During that span, the
Kingsmen have won 74% of their games, including five Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic
Conference (SCIAC) championships and the first four NCAA playoff appearances in school history.
CLU is 39-5 vs. the SCIAC since 2007, and has claimed four of the last five conference titles.
In 2014, CLU will field one of the youngest teams in recent memory. e depth chart heading into
training camp features a nice combination of youth and experience. Sophomore Quarterback David
Rico (Dinuba, CA) will enter camp as the starter, having finished the season starting the final three
contests, earning two victories and accounting for over 1,300 yards and 13 TDs in nine quarters of
action. Rico’s primary targets will include his former high school teammate and three year starter,
Andrew Worthley, as well as experienced Juniors Sean Bellotti and Justin Bloom. e Offensive Line
will feature three sophomores, a junior, and a senior as starters. Defensively, look for all-star Defensive End Anthony Monroe to lead the charge. Sophomore Linebacker Bryce Henderson gained valuable experience in 2013, and Sophomore Cornerback
Logan Sanders started as a freshman before being slowed
by injuries at the end of the season.
e schedule will be challenging for the young Kingsmen. ey will open on the road at nationally-ranked
Pacific Lutheran University on September 13th. e
first home game of 2014 is the first game of a two-game
series with Willamette University on September 20th.
CLU will travel to defending SCIAC champion Redlands on October 11th for the annual Smudge Pot Trophy game. e schedule features five total home
games, including Homecoming on October 8th and
Senior Day on November 15th. Home night games
are scheduled on October 25th vs. Chapman and November 8th vs. Occidental.

Oh, summon your sons and daughters,
Your banners and flags unfold,
Call them to Alma Mater,
The violet and the gold,
California Lutheran,
College of our dreams,
Upon whose crested summits
Sunbeams dance and gleam.
Oh, summon your sons and daughters,
The ‘circling hills enfold,
Near deep Pacific waters,
The violet and the gold.
Your love of freedom cherish,
Your love of truth prevails,
Your love of Christus merit,
Alma Mater, Hail! All Hail! All Hail!
Hail The Kingsmen
Hail Kingsmen! Hail Kingsmen!
Forward into battle go the Kingsmen!
Roaring out again to meet the foe.
Stand and cheer as they appear.
Every loyal son will bid them go.
Throughout the land our loyal band
of Kingsmen raise their colors high
for all to see. So! Give your all today And once again we’ll say It’s victory for CLU.
Hail Kingsmen! Hail Kingsmen!
Fight on to victory.

We’re here right behind you and

So, go! go! go! go!
Go and get the score and our spirits will soar!

Salute to the 2011 Fighting Heart Award Winner Mike Cox.
Mr. Reliable is how his former Coach, Bob Shoup, refers to Mike Cox. He was a starter for four years in both
football and baseball at Cal Lutheran from 1962 until 1966. He made no mental mistakes and was always prepared, never missing a practice or a game. He was on the “blue slipper team”…a foundational player.
Mike Cox was awarded the Fighting Heart Award in 2011 because of his strength and Continuing courage in
fighting a rare form of cancer in his throat, neck and on his tongue.After chemotherapy and radiation on these very
sensitive tissues, with his devoted wife, Tony,applying the lotions to his burned tissues after each treatment, Mike
had lost his voice and was reduced to taking his food through a stomach tube. Nevertheless, you can never count
out the resolve of “a fighting heart”. As in football, so too in life; Mike’s voice has returned, he is eating normally
again and…he has prevailed!
Mike Cox’s Cal Lutheran Achievements:
3 sport letterman; Football (4) Baseball (3) Basketball (1yr freshman year)
Baseball MVP 1963 - batted .400.
Awarded Iron Man trophy for most minutes played on the 1965 football team
Eleven career interceptions
Graduated Cum Laude 3.3 GPA in Business Administration 1966
After Cal Lutheran:
Received MBA from the Wharton Business School at the University of Pennsylvania, 1974
Employed by varIous manufacturers of data storage software and hardware over the past 35
years in financial positions such as Division Controller, Corporate Controller, Director of Financial
Planning and Analysis. Currently works for Quantum Corp. in Irvine, California.
Married to current wife Toni for 24 years. Mike and Toni have two sons from Mike’s first marriage
and 3 grand children.
