BASEBALL 2015 MEDIA GUIDE 2015 MEDIA GUIDE

UNIVERSITY OVERVIEW There’s something special happening at Northern Kentucky University. The youngest of Kentucky’s eight public colleges and universities, NKU has matured into a prominent metropolitan institution serving more than 15,000 associate, undergraduate, graduate, professional and doctoral students from across the nation and around the world. As the university approaches its 50th anniversary in 2018, the Norse spirit has never been stronger. Our students embrace the self-determination and work ethic that makes this a special place, and our alumni take pride in the impact they make both on our campus and in their community. In 2013, the university community worked together to develop a five-year strategic plan to guide us to our semicentennial. The plan infuses innovation throughout NKU’s programs and services. We’re breaking down barriers between colleges and majors in a way that ensures we continue to graduate leaders capable of making immediate contributions to their organizations, the region, and the commonwealth. We prepare students for a life of leadership and service, increasing their opportunities to attain financial security and life fulfillment while reducing the likelihood of burdensome student debt. Each new incoming freshman class is more prepared than the one before, and with a heightened focus on student success in the strategic plan, graduation and retention rates are also on the rise. Our students choose NKU because of the innovative academic programs within each of its six colleges – the College of Arts and Sciences, Haile/US Bank College of Business, College of Education and Human Services, College of Health Professions, College of Informatics, and Chase College of Law. They’re also drawn to our close-knit campus and to the personal attention they receive from caring facultymentors. State colleges and universities like NKU embrace a student focus that emphasizes learning and teaching. That’s why our small classrooms were designed for lively discussions within a comfortable learning atmosphere.

PRES ID ENT

GEOFFREY MEARNS

Geoffrey S. Mearns became NKU’s fifth president on August 1, 2012. Prior to coming to NKU, he was provost and senior vice president for academic affairs at Cleveland State University, a public university with more than 16,000 students. He became provost in February 2010. In this role, he oversaw eight academic deans and five vice provosts. He supervised various academic support functions such as the library; student advising and student services; and faculty recruitment, reappointment, promotion and tenure. Prior to becoming provost, he spent four and a half years as dean and professor of law at Cleveland State’s Cleveland-Marshall College of Law. During his tenure as dean, he was actively engaged in fundraising for the college, helping to enhance its scholarship pool and overseeing an $8.8 million renovation of the law building. Under his leadership, alumni and private giving increased substantially, and the quality and diversity of the law school’s class improved. Mearns also oversaw continual improvement in the school’s bar passage rates. At Cleveland-Marshall, Mearns taught complex federal criminal investigations and prosecutions, criminal law, and white collar crime. He previously taught at the Case Western Reserve University School of Law and New York Law School. Prior to joining Cleveland State, Mearns was a practicing lawyer for more than 15 years, including serving as a federal prosecutor in the United States Department of Justice. His record of community service includes serving on several judicial screening committees and serving as a trustee for several Cleveland non-profit agencies. He was a member of the National Academy of Sciences Committee on Identifying the Needs of the Forensic Science Community. He earned a bachelor’s degree in English from Yale University in 1981 and a juris doctor from the University of Virginia in 1987. After graduating from law school, he clerked for the Hon. Boyce F. Martin, Jr., of the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit in Louisville. Mearns and his wife, Jennifer, have five children.

AT HL E T IC D IRECTOR

KEN BOTHOF

On June 26, 2013, Northern Kentucky University Introduced Ken Bothof as the new Director of Athletics. Bothof came to NKU from the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay, where he served as athletic director since 2002. Bothof’s tenure at Green Bay was marked by great success both on the field and in the classroom, as well as tremendous growth in support for the school’s 16 athletic programs. The NKU athletics department is set to begin its third year at the NCAA Division I level. A member of the Atlantic Sun Conference, NKU sponsors 17 intercollegiate sports – baseball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s cross country, men’s and women’s golf, men’s and women’s soccer, women’s softball, men’s and women’s tennis, men’s and women’s indoor/outdoor track and field and volleyball. As impressive as any of the on-field success, however, was the fact that NKU student athletes posted a grade point average of 3.05 in the fall and 3.03 in the spring. In fact, the school’s student athletes have posted a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or greater during six of the last seven semesters. Under his leadership, the Green Bay women’s basketball team won 11-straight Horizon League titles and five NCAA Tournament first-round games; the program’s first Sweet Sixteen appearance was in 2011. Men’s basketball posted consecutive 20-win seasons and postseason appearances in 2009 and 2010, while men’s soccer, volleyball and softball each earned their first trip to the NCAA Tournament. During his tenure, Phoenix student-athletes earned a cumulative grade point average of 3.0 or higher in each of the final 23 semesters. Green Bay is one of only two Horizon League schools to be ranked in the top 100 in the NCSA Athletic Recruiting Collegiate Power Rankings, which recognizes academic and athletic success and student-athlete graduation rates. Prior to his tenure at Green Bay, Bothof served as associate athletic director for external operations at Saint Louis University, where he oversaw marketing and promotions, fundraising, corporate sponsorships, event management and ticket sales while also supervising three sports. Bothof served as associate athletic director and then senior associate athletic director at Idaho State University from 1990-95, where he developed corporate sponsorship plans and marketing programs, served as compliance coordinator and NCAA certification coordinator, and supervised 12 sports. He began his career at San Jose State University, where he served as assistant athletic director. NKU Athletics also launched a $6 million Go Gold fundraising campaign last year, and has raised nearly $3 million toward that goal. Bothof earned his bachelor of arts in education from Buena Vista University, where he competed in baseball and basketball. The Slayton, Minn., native is married to Carrie and has two children – Tyson and Kendra.

FACILITIES The primary mission of NKU’S INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS PROGRAM is to advance the University’s vision and prepare and empower its studentathletes for both academic and competitive success, while serving and engaging the University and local community. One way to accomplish each of those elements is through top-notch facilities. Since 2007, NKU has worked to significantly improve its facilities that service its athletic programs and the surrounding community. On November 8, 2008, the NKU men’s and women’s basketball teams hosted the University of Louisville to open The Bank of Kentucky Center, a $68.5 million, 9,200-seat multipurpose facility that will continue to serve the NKU athletics teams as well as the surrounding community. The facility houses a training room for NKU’s sports medicine team, weight room, study lab and film-study room. In addition to hosting Norse men’s and women’s basketball games, the venue also serves as host to concerts, plays and other sporting events. Acts such as Blake Shelton, Luke Bryan, Larry the Cable Guy and Cirque du Soleil have held events at the facility. In the spring of 2007, the Joyce Yeager Tennis Complex opened, bringing the NKU men’s and women’s tennis teams back on campus and providing the campus community with a first-class outdoor tennis facility. NKU opened the $6.5 million NKU Soccer Stadium adjacent to The Bank of Kentucky Center in 2010, ending a 10-year period of Norse soccer playing off-campus in Wilder, Ky. The NKU Soccer Stadium officially opened on Sept. 3, 2010, as the men’s soccer team defeated Findlay by a 4-0 score. The men’s and women’s teams combined for a 24-2-1 record in their first full season at the new facility, while hosting Great Lakes Valley Conference and NCAA postseason contests. The Northern Kentucky volleyball team plays its home contests in Regents Hall, which was officially dedicated on October 29, 1972. Just the second building completed on NKU’s Highland Heights campus, Regents seats roughly 1,800 spectators. It also houses locker rooms for Norse baseball, softball, tennis and cross country/track & field. Baseball competes at the Bill Aker Baseball Complex at Friendship Field, which sits adjacent to Regents Hall and the Albright Health Center, which houses the student activities center. The baseball complex features a turfed infield and natural grass outfield in the 300-seat venue. The Frank Ignatius Grein Softball Field serves as home to the Norse softball program. The 300-seat facility sits adjacent to both the Bill Aker Baseball Complex and Joyce E. Yeager Tennis Complex.

Additionally, Asalon’s squad led the GLVC in both team hitting and team pitching on the season while 11 players earned All-GLVC honors, including GLVC Player of the Year Evan McDole. In 2008, Asalon led the Norse to a 38-24 record and their fourth Great Lakes Valley Conference title in the previous seven years. The Norse did so in dramatic fashion, losing in the opening game of the GLVC tournament before rallying back to victory. Asalon was the first coach in GLVC history to amass four titles so quickly into his tenure and only the second coach in GLVC history to accumulate four conference titles such a short span. Asalon guided NKU to the Great Lakes Valley Conference Tournament championship in 2006 and an appearance in the NCAA Division II Tournament. The Norse finished 4220-1 overall, 36-11-1 in the GLVC. The 42 wins are the most for NKU since 1989, when the Norse finished 45-9. Nine years ago, Asalon led NKU to

TODD ASALON is entering his 15th season as the baseball head coach at Northern Kentucky University. Asalon owns a 456-356-1 record in 14 years as the Norse head coach and led NKU to the NCAA Division II Tournament eight times. During his tenure, 11 players, including nine pitchers, have been selected in the Major League Baseball Draft, the most recent being Jordan Procyshen (14th round, Boston Red Sox) was selected in the 2014 MLB Draft. Procyshen became just the second field player to be drafted during Asalon’s tenure, following outfielder Jake Shaffer. Shaffer was chosen by the Seattle Mariners in the 15th round after his junior year in 2005. Last season, the Norse went 14-37 on the year and 6-21 in the Atlantic Sun Conference. The Norse had three players earn postseason Atlantic Sun honors. Cole Bauml was named second-team All-Atlantic Sun as was Zac Asman, who earned a spot on the Academic All-Atlantic Sun team as well. Kyle Colletta, who saw action at shortstop and on the mound for NKU, received All-Freshmen Team accolades as well. In 2012, NKU finished its final season competing at the NCAA Division II level 36-22 overall and 25-11 in the GLVC. The 2012 season saw the Norse win 16 games in a row between March 18 and April 7. NKU ended the season in second place in the GLVC East division and advanced to the second round of the Midwest Regional Tournament. In 2010, Asalon returned to the NCAA Tournament on the heels of a 43-17 season and topped the GLVC East division for the second consecutive season with a 24-6 league record. The Norse saw several offensive records broken, both individually and at the team level, and led the nation in doubles and doubles per game. Asalon earned his first back-toback GLVC championships as the Norse finished 41-22, earning Asalon his third GLVC Coach of the Year award for the 2009 season. The five conference championships over the eight-year span are equaled only by ABCA Hall of Fame coach Irish

a 31-26 record. It marked the fourth time in five years that Asalon led the Norse to at least 30 victories. In 2004, Asalon guided NKU to a 37-25 record and its second Great Lakes Valley Conference Tournament championship in three years. The Norse also advanced to the NCAA Division II Tournament and featured GLVC Pitcher of the Year Derrik Moeves, who was drafted by the Pittsburgh Pirates in 2005. In 2002, Asalon led NKU to a 3724 record and guided the Norse to their first-ever GLVC Tournament championship. Asalon was named GLVC Coach of the Year in 2002, and he guided the Norse to the NCAA Division II Tournament for the first time since 1990. Asalon, who spent six years as the baseball head coach at Thomas More College prior to taking the NKU position in 2000, is a 1994 graduate of NKU. Asalon played baseball for the Norse from 1980-83, and he was a three-year starter at catcher. Asalon earned All-Region honors in 1981 and served as team captain in both 1982 and ‘83.
