The Hertfordshire Hurricanes American Football team represents the University of Hertfordshire in the British Universities and Colleges Sport (BUCS) British Universities American Football League (BUAFL). The Hurricanes currently compete in the BUCS American Football Tier 1 Southern Division. The program began in 1993 entering the British Collegiate American Football League (BCAFL) for the 1994 season. Since then, Hertfordshire has won five national championships in the 1997, 1998, 1999, 2003 and 2010 seasons.
The Hertfordshire Hurricanes are among the most historic and decorated American football programs in British Universities American Football history. The Hurricanes have appeared in nine National Championship games, winning five - a feat only matched by the University of Birmingham Lions. Hertfordshire are the only team to win the National Championship three times in a row. Hertfordshire was ranked third on the list of all-time winningest teams in the British Collegiate American Football League up until 2007.> For the 2007 season, the BCAFL was succeeded by the BUAFL and in 2012 BUAFL was integrated into BUCS. Since then, Hertfordshire has become one of, if not, the most winningest British American football team of all time for teams competing at the highest level. Four University of Hertfordshire players have been named League MVP. Those players are Matt Coppinger (1996), Hugh Stacey (1998), Tony Gordon (2001),[1] and Joe Thompson (2011).
Over 30 years of competitive football, the Hurricanes have compiled an all-time 171-51-9 regular season win/loss record. The team have won 171 out of their 231 regular season games for a .740 all-time winning percentage.
The Hurricanes have played 207 regular season games at the highest level of University sport, winning 155 for a .749 winning percentage.
History
editThe Hurricanes were formed by University of Hertfordshire students Matt Coppinger and Jeremy Brown in late 1992 / early 1993 and entered into the BCAFL in September 1994. The 1994 season started with a 60-0 win over fellow divisional rivals and new entrants Surrey Stingers. This was followed by a surprising 18-6 victory over the experienced Bath Killer Bees team. The team then struggled and finished 2-4-2 with losses to Cambridge, UEA, Southampton and Surrey. The team made the plate competition hosted in Leeds beating Surrey and UWE but losing to UEA. After almost 3 years of building a team, many Hurricanes graduated. The 1995/96 season was a rebuilding year and the team struggled to a 1-6-1 record. The highlights were two close games with Reading and the performance of Coppinger, the conference Defensive Player of the Year. In 1996-97, the Hurricanes put together their first winning season behind an offense led by Martin Brown, Asy Ho, Arnault Lancia, Coppinger and Anthony Fitzpatrick. The team finished 5-3, and remained in playoff contention until a late-season loss to University of East Anglia. The star was again Coppinger, who played both ways so effectively that he was named the League's Most Valuable Player.[2]
1997 to 2000 - The Three-peat
edit1997 was a breakthrough year for the Hurricanes and the start of a run of three consecutive national championships. Former University of Cambridge coach Beau Riffenburgh joined the Hurricanes and put together a coaching staff including Jim Messenger, Former GB Bulldogs Matt Coppinger, Phil King and Surjinder Johal and Jason Pearson and Keir Macree. Riffenburgh guided the Hurricanes to an unbeaten season. They then shut out Southampton 21-0, before winning the Southern Conference Championship game 26-6 over defending conference champs Aberystwyth. Led by national defensive player of the year Mika Ahtinen, and Southern Conference offensive player of the year Mark Zaki, the Hurricanes defeated heavily favoured Leeds 16-7 in College Bowl XII, as Zaki scored twice in the second half to overcome an early Leeds advantage. Riffenburgh won Coach of the Year.
Riffenburgh left at the end of the season and Jim Messenger took over as Head Coach. The Hurricanes winning ways continued recording a 7-0-1 record (with a stubborn 0-0 tie away at UEA) and a 21-6 win away at Loughborough. Herts met Oxford for the first of 4 playoff battles (over the next 4 years), winning this one 7-2. The team went on to sweep past Cardiff 27-6 and set up a second consecutive Bowl appearance. College Bowl XIII was a huge defensive battle with the Hurricanes coming out 7-3 on top. Behind the performance of DE and BCAFL MVP Huw Stacey, LB and Southern Conference Defensive MVP Tony Groden and CB and BCAFL Special Teams MVP Richard Savage, the Hurricanes defense were key to the victory. Asy Ho scored the winning touchdown, although Dawid Ostrega's rushing performance was almost an MVP performance with 129 yards from 26 attempts.
1999 offered the chance for the Hurricanes to make history and be the first team to win three consecutive college bowls. The team was up to the challenge and once again Head Coach Jim Messenger took them to a 7-1 record, the only loss against an on form Cardiff team in week 2. The Hurricanes would exact revenge in the 1st round of the playoffs and beat Cardiff 19-6 as veteran (and two time champion) QB Alex Cameron threw 3 TD passes. The Hurricanes once again faced Oxford in the playoffs. Dawid Ostrega scored 3 TD's as LB Tony Groden and DT Chris Renshaw kept the highly rated Oxford running game at bay. The Hurricanes made history and defeated Leicester 20-6 with BCAFL Defensive MVP Tony Groden voted Bowl MVP and TD's from Mike Butler, Neil White and Dawid Ostrega. Ostrega and Dean Mason combined for over 200 yards rushing in the final.
2000 to 2003 - Another College Bowl
editThe 2000 season saw Messenger take the Hurricanes to a respectable 6-1-1 with a loss to Southampton and a cancellation versus UEA. Herts showed their dominance by sweeping past UEA 68-0 in the first round of the playoffs, Ostrega scoring a record 4 TD's. However, this was to be Oxford's year as the Hurricanes lost a close fought match 14-7 in the Conference Semi Final. Oxford went on to win the College Bowl.
2001 saw Herts face a rebuilding year. Many of the veterans who were part of 3 national championships had left. The Hurricanes lost their first game of the season 35-19 to on-form rivals Surrey (who went 8-0). Herts bounced back with a solid win against Kent bolstered by the emergence of running backs Mike Willauer and Andy Cochrane. Tony Groden returned to marshal the defence and the Canes passed Leicester 27-22, helped by the performance of QB Junior Price. The Hurricanes finished the season 4-3-1 after Essex cancelled, with some encouraging performances by the rookies. The Hurricanes proved their worth and got revenge in the playoffs against Surrey winning 34-27. Yet again Herts faced Oxford in playoffs, literally played in a hurricane, the Cavaliers ran out victors 14-9. For his dominating performances Tony Groden won BCAFL MVP - the third Hurricane to do so.
With a rebuilding year behind them and a visit to the Conference Final, the Hurricanes were determined to take it one step further in 2002/03 - to the College Bowl. Herts did not disappoint and romped to a 7-1 record (losing to Southampton) behind the running of Cochrane (and the blocking of the offensive line, notably Sol Rogers, Owen Powis and Matt Meyer) and the arm of Junior Price. The defense also performed well with Lloyd Buxton, Neil White, Nick Church and Ade Balogun leading. The Hurricanes repeated their revenge act of '01 by beating Southampton 48-19 in the Southern Conference Final. The two top rated offenses and defenses in Herts and Stirling played out a nail biting College Bowl XVIII. BCAFL MVP and Stirling RB Jon Sutherland ran for 190 yards and 3 TD's. BCAFL Offensive MVP and Herts RB Andy Cochrane ran for 179 yards and 2TD's. Rob Kelly kicked a 23 yard field goal to put Herts 17-14 with 5 minutes left. Stirling responded with a Sutherland score with only 3 minutes left. It went down to the wire as Herts ran out of time at the Stirling 2 yard line, the Scots winning 22-17. In taking Herts to 3 college bowls in the last 5 years as Head Coach and for developing an outstanding football programme, Jim Messenger received Coach of the Year.
It is typical in college football that teams develop in 3-4 year cycles. A team forms around a good influx of players who develop over the period of their studies. 2003 looked like it would be the culmination for the Class of '01. After a 4-3-1 season in 2001 and coming so close in the College Bowl in 2002, the team were gunning for another National Championship in 2003. The team rallied to an 8-0 regular season, a first for Head Coach Jim Messenger and only the second time since the first College Bowl win. The offense excelled under the leadership of QB Junior Price scoring a 300 points. This was possibly the best offensive line Herts had seen, with power runner Andy Cochrane and WR Jon Gerring, the 'Canes were a formidable force. Key early victories over Southampton, Cardiff and a suprisingly weak Oxford gave Herts the start they needed. Indeed the opening kickoff of the season at Herts new home ground was taken back all the way by Junior Price. It was obvious from first few weeks of action that Herts were on a collision course with other Southern Conference powerhouse Birmingham. In what will go down as one of the most intense Conference finals, where the lead changed 5 times, Herts ran out 32-20 winners. This booked a place in College Bowl XVIX against the Staffordshire Stallions. Game MVP Andy Cochrane powered his way to over 200 yards in blustery conditions to seal a 27-6 victory and a record 4th College Bowl.[2]
2004 to 2007 - Rebuilding
editWith another College Bowl under their belt, the Hurricanes were looking favourites to take another run at the College Bowl. The Hurricanes started the 2004/05 season with a 68-0 win over the Essex Blades followed by a 47-0 defeat of the University of East Anglia Pirates and a 62-0 win over the Anglia Ruskin Phantoms. The offensive onslaught continued with a 48-6 win over former College Bowl rivals Staffordshire Stallions. In January 2005, the Hurricanes met once again with southern powerhouse the Birmingham Lions, this time the Lions ran out with a shocking 27-7 win. The 'Canes quickly bounced back with a 34-0 win against the Nottingham Outlaws, before wrapping the season with 67-0 and 80-0 wins over UEA and Greenwich respectively, the Hurricanes rallying to a 7-1 record. The Hurricanes dismissed UEA 56-6 in the first round of the playoffs before dispatching old foes Southampton 48-12. This setup another conference championship game against the Birmingham Lions who ran out 26-14 winners. The Lions went on to win the College Bowl.
2005/06 would be somewhat of a rebuilding year for the Hurricanes as the team struggled to find the dominant form of last year. The season started with a 26-6 loss to the Bristol Bullets. The team bounced back with wins of 53-0 and 40-6 against division rivals ARU and UEA respectively. However, the Hurricanes met their match against the ascending Southampton Stags, losing 22-13. Again the Hurricanes bounced back and defeated division rivals Greenwich 27-0, Essex 27-6 and UEA 33-12. The final game of the regular season was a much heralded match up between College Bowl champions and fierce rivals the Birmingham Lions. The game was a blowout with Birmingham running out 47-0 winners. The Hurricanes finished 5-3 and second in the division to Greenwich (6-2), setting up a 1st round playoff game against the Birmingham Lions. This time, the Hurricanes were more prepared but lost a close game 21-14. The Lions went on to lose to the Stags who eventually won the College Bowl.
With the Southern Conference becoming much more competitive the Hurricanes 2006/07 season would be a tough one. The first game of the season was an away game to perennial northern powerhouse Loughborough, losing 29-27 to an Aces team that would eventually make the College Bowl. To make matters worse Essex, under the leadership of head coach Neil O'Hare, had developed into a much stronger outfit and defeated the Hurricanes 16-7. The Hurricanes had never started a season 0-2 before. Hertfordshire bounced back to beat the ARU Phantoms 44-0 but then fell to the Bath Killer Bees 33-27. At 1-3, things were looking bleak, but once again the Hurricanes bounced back with wins of 69-9 against Royal Holloway, 46-0 against the Kent Falcons and 25-6 against the Nottingham Outlaws. At 4-3, the Hurricanes needed to beat the Greenwich Mariners (led by Hurricanes Alumni Matt Coppinger) to make the playoffs. The Hurricanes ran out 30-0 winners, finishing the season again 5-3 and setting up a 1st round playoff game against the Southampton Stags. Coming off a College Bowl win the Stags were favourite and beat the 'Canes in a close 25-22 battle. The Stags were eliminated by the Lions who were beaten by the Bristol Bullets, who themselves went on to beat Loughborough in the College Bowl.[3]
2007 to 2011 - BUAFL & Number Five
editThe 2007 season would be first season of the British Universities American Football League (BUAFL). The BCAFL had been folded and a new championship started under the guidance of the governing body BAFA.
2006/07 had been a wake up call and the Hurricanes responded. The 2007/08 season saw the Hurricanes turn the program back around and return to form. The season started with a 57-14 win over the Kent Falcons followed by a close 22-11 win over the Greenwich Mariners. The Hurricanes got revenge over the Blades with a 40-6 win then blew past ARU 52-0 and Kent 38-0. The Greenwich Mariners, again led by former Hurricane Matt Coppinger, took the Hurricanes to their closest game of the season with the Canes winning 16-8. The Canes beat UEA 64-0, then Essex 51-19 to wrap another perfect 8-0 season. The team dispatched the Reading Knights 51-7 in the first round of the playoffs, setting up a second round matchup with arch rivals the Birmingham Lions. The Hurricanes high powered offence scored 46 points to defeat the Lions 46-24. The Southern Conference Final against the Southampton Stags was a disappointing affair with the Canes going out 19-7. The Stags went on to win the College Bowl beating the Staffordshire Stallions.
The 2008/09 season continued in much the same vain as the previous season. The high scoring Hurricanes swept past Portsmouth 68-0, ARU 63-0, UEA 45-14 and Essex 53-0 for a commanding 4-0 start. Next up were rivals Southampton Stags, which in a strange co-incidence saw the Hurricanes repeat last year's loss going out 19-7. The Hurricanes were given a 1-0 against the struggling Kent Falcons before beating the Mariners 44-2. Hertfordshire wrapped up their season 7-1 with a 57-14 win over the Brighton Tsunami. The Greenwich Mariners travelled to Herts for the 1st round of playoffs losing 30-0. For a third straight year, this setup a playoff battle with the Southampton Stags. Having lost 19-7 in the regular season, the Hurricanes were looking to reverse their fortunes. Unfortunately in what was a much close game, the Stags edged it 20-17. The Stags lost to the Lions who went on to win the College Bowl.[3]
In 2009/2010 the Hurricanes finished with a 7-1 record, but were eliminated from the playoffs.
In 2010/2011 the Hurricanes finished 8-0.[4]
In 2011/2012 season the Hurricanes went 8-0 and won their fifth National Championship beating the undefeated Birmingham Lions 39-17 at John Charles Stadium.[5][6]
2012 to 2018 - BUCS
editIn 2012 the BUAFL was integrated into the British Universities and Colleges Sport system. This was an important move as now Universities would be nationally recognised for participating in American football and awarded points in the University sport system. Universities would be incentivised to better fund American football so that their team's achievements contributed to their national ranking.
In 2012 the Hurricanes finished 8-0. The team made the National Championship game losing to Birmingham.
In 2013 the Hurricanes finished 8-0.
In 2014 the Hurricanes finished 7-1. The team made the National Championship game losing to Stirling.
In 2015 the Hurricanes finished 5-3.
It had been 5 years since Hertfordshire had won their fifth title. In 2016 the Hurricanes finished 7-1.
In 2017 Jim Messenger stepped down as Head Coach, after 20 years in charge. Simon Hatcher took on the Head Coach role and the Hurricanes did not miss a beat. The team started with back to back wins against Bath 27-10 and 27-3 followed by a tough win over Swansea 14-6. The Hurricanes then faced old rivals Birmingham away suffering a 36-19 defeat. The team bounced back with a 20-0 win over Portsmouth to go into the break 4-1. The new year started with an action packed 36-22 win over Swansea, where the lead changed 6 times and the 'Canes closing out the game with a goal line stand. The team carried on their winning ways with a 35-12 win over Portsmouth. The final game of the season saw the Hurricanes face Birmingham. The Canes took a 21-6 halftime lead, but the Lions bounced back to win 34-27. Hertfordshire ended the season 6-2 and faced Leeds Beckett in the 1st round of the playoffs. Leeds took a 22-7 halftime lead before closing out the game 34-19. Leeds were eliminated by Durham who eventually won the National Championship.
2018 would prove to be full of adversity. The Hurricanes once again led by Coach Hatcher started with tough losses to Swansea 36-26 and UWE 20-14. The Canes recovered with a surprise 35-0 win over rivals Birmingham followed by a 41-7 win over the Portsmouth Destroyers to go 2-2 into the break. After the break the 'Canes stumbled to a 32-12 loss against UWE but managed to win a close 7-6 battle against Swansea. The game against Portsmouth was postponed and awarded a tie. Hurricanes faced Birmingham for the final game of the season with the 'Canes looking to match the win earlier in the season. The Lions were in form though and took the game 43-20. A mixed season saw the Hurricanes finish 3-4-1, but the Hurricanes were not done. The team rallied for an incredible come back run in the playoffs. The team squeaked past unbeaten Nottingham 28-27 in a shock upset and then beat Swansea 27-22 once again to set up a ninth National Championship game, this time against Leeds Beckett. Leeds Beckett had beaten Birmingham and UWE to get to the final and proved too strong downing the Hurricanes 57-13.[7] Coach Hatcher stepped down after two seasons in charge.
2019 to 2021 - Turmoil
editWith Coach Hatcher leaving and many students graduating, the program had an uncertain future. Coach Franco Arellanos[8] took over the reigns from Coach Simon Hatcher to lead the Hurricanes in what would be a tough rebuilding year in a competitive Premier tier. The Hurricanes lost 26-0 to the UWE Bullets, then 24-0 to the Birmingham Lions before running Swansea a little closer losing 30-14. The tough schedule continued with losses to UEA 24-0, UWE 60-6 and the Lions 48-8. After a break for Christmas the Hurricanes fought back to beat the UEA Pirates 30-0 and then scoring a 6-6 tie against the Swansea Titans. The 1-6-1 record was not enough to keep the Hurricanes in top tier football.[9]
Due to the COVID19 pandemic, no competitive football was played in the 2020/21 season.
September 2021 and with the UK coming out of the pandemic, the Hurricanes were ready to return to action, this time in BUCS Southern Tier 1. The season started well with a close 6-0 win over the Portsmouth Destroyers. This followed with a 19-18 win over the Sussex Saxons. The Hurricanes lost the next game 26-17 to the Royal Holloway Bears and then bounced back with a 15-14 win against Sussex. The Hurricanes beat old foes Surrey Stingers 7-6 to go into the holiday break 4-1. The new year started with a postponed game and 0-0 tie against Royal Holloway before the Canes once again beat Surrey, this 17-6. The Hurricanes regular season finished 5-2-1 after a disappointing loss to Portsmouth 16-0. Still, the Hurricanes had made the playoffs, but fell 23-7 to the Brunel Burners.[9]
2022 to Present
editThe Hurricanes went into the 2022 season looking for a new head coach. After 5 years away from the Hurricanes, Coach Jim Messenger returned to lead the team.[10] Building on 2021's positive 5-2-1 season, Coach Messenger led the team to a 8-3 win against Royal Holloway, a 44-12 win against Oxford, another close 7-3 win against Royal Holloway and a 55-00 win over Sussex. Hurricanes were 4-0 going into the break. The new year saw the Hurricanes with back to back games against Portsmouth, winning the first 6-0 and losing the second 20-6. The team bounced back to beat Sussex 20-0, finishing 6-1 and making the playoffs. They dispatched the Exeter Demons 20-12 in the first round, but fell 35-6 to the Bournemouth Uni Bobcats.[9]
