Eric ('80) was a star wide receiver for the Eagles' Football program in the late '70s. He was recognized as a three-time All-American during his time with CMU and was twice honored as the team's Most Outstanding wide receiver. He and his fellow teammate, quarterback Tom Stine, set the NAIA record for the longest touchdown pass at 99 yards against Culver-Stockton College on Nov. 5, 1977, in Fayette. Trelz finished the 1977 season with 41 receptions for 897 total yards and three touchdowns, averaging 112 yards receiving/game inside one of the best passing games in the nation. For his outstanding accomplishments during the 1977 season, Trelz was given the title of "Little All-America" by the Associated Press, which included all non-NCAA Division I football programs throughout the country.
