while setting the PSAC all-time record for rushing yards,
rushing touchdowns, total points and came within just six
carries of setting the conference record for rushing attempts,
as he finished with 937. He has the top three best single-season
rushing yards marks in school history, while rushing for 5,647
yards in his career, the majority of which came between his
sophomore and senior seasons. The all-time leading rusher
in Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference history with 5,647
yards, Cates owns nine of the top 10 rushing totals in California
(PA) history, topped by a 307 yard, 5 touchdown performance
against Cheyney College in 2001. His 286 yard effort against
Geneva that same year earned him Don Hanson Tri-Player of
the Week honors. Finishing his senior season with 1,673 yards,
the second best total in Division II, and 21 touchdowns, Cates
was named PSAC Offensive Player of the Year, a Second Team
Daktronics/CoSida All-American for the second straight year,
to the Football Gazette's First Team, and was nominated for
the Harlon Hill Award as the top player in Division II. Prior
to his 1,935 yard 1999 season, which ranks third in Conference
