Springfield College joined Oklahoma State, Iowa State, and Oregon State as the only schools to have achieved this milestone. Stagg Field serves as the College's main athletic field; it was named after former coach, Amos Alonzo Stagg who briefly coached Springfield and went on to play a pivotal role in the development of
Steven Naismith by McCann. Naismith scored Rangers first goal against Hearts in October 2011, and Rangers went on to win the game 2–0. During the 2011–12 season, Naismith began a goalscoring celebration where he crosses his arms in front of his body. This was later revealed by a family friend to mean that he is sending a kiss to his girlfriend when doing so. On 29 October, Naismith injured himself after attempting to tackle Aberdeen's Rob Milsom. A scan later confirmed that he had damaged his cruciate ligament and would be out of action for around nine months, ending his season. In
