- Shippensburg was in the PSAC West
- Mansfield still played football
- The Philadelphia Eagles used South Campus for their training camp
- California finished 2-9 and was one of everybody’s easy wins
- And Millersville, yes Millersville, finished 9-1-1 and, along with Edinboro, advanced to the NCAA playoffs
- West Chester set the school record for most punts in a season with 82. In 2014, Rich Bruno punted just 47 times
After coming off a playoff appearance the prior year, head coach Rick Daniels suffered his first losing season as West Chester head coach, finishing 4-6-1. Those four wins were over Cheyney (0-9-1), Mansfield (1-9), Shippensburg (3-8) and a comeback, one-point victory over California (2-9). The best performance by the Golden Rams that season was against New Haven. The Chargers finished the regular season undefeated and suffered their only loss in the second round of the playoffs. At Farrell Stadium, West Chester played them to a 36-36 tie, which happens to be the last tie in Golden Ram history.
Wide receiver Brian Penecale set the school record for career receptions with 191, receiving yards with 2,983 and touchdown catches with 48. Kevin Ingram surpassed the receptions and yardage records in 1995-99 and Mike Washington surpassed all three of Penecale’s marks in 2005-08. Penecale and defensive tackle Courtenay Williams were both named to the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) Division II All-Northeast Region team.
