he 2012 track and field season promises to be a roller coaster of emotion for Southeastern Louisiana. Head coach Sean Brady will carry 37 newcomers into the indoor season, with more expected to join the roster in time for the outdoor season.

On the women’s side, Southeastern returns its two best pole vaulters in Brittany Pfantz and Colleen Butler. “We know we have some quality pole vaulters and another horizontal jumper on the men and women’s sides – Phillippe Moore and Michelle Ogashi, respectively,” Brady said. “We have good core group of sprinters. Shannon Grover is coming back for his final campaign.”

“This is the first year we’ve had this many freshmen,” Brady said. “It’s certainly been trying on our patience, but patience is something we have to have.Who they are now is certainly not who they’ll be in May. Who they are as freshmen is certainly not who they’ll be as a junior or senior.”

The indoor season kicks off in early December at the ASU Kickoff Klassic.

Just before May, Southeastern will host its first home meet in more than a decade.The Lions and Lady Lions will christen the new facility April 20 with the Southeastern Invitational. Coach Brady expects to have the keys to his new facility by early January. The new Southeastern Track Complex has a Beynon surface with encapsulated granules and a dedicated facility should provide the program with an important recruiting tool. “Our team is built surrounding a full squad,” Brady said. “We don’t specialize in any event area. Our recruiting philosophy is that we take the best athletes available and coach them up. We should have athletes in just about every event.”

see who will step up and compete.”

The underclassmen-laden roster of athletes will rely heavily on a handful of experienced athletes early in the year. All-American

“The meet at Arkansas State is certainly an early meet, but it’s still an opportunity for us to compete,” head coach Sean Brady said. “It’s a culmination of all the hard work and effort in the fall. I’m excited and anxious to It will be the first collegiate competition for the majority of the roster. “We hope that they’re more anxious than nervous,” Brady said. “We’re going to find out about some of these young athletes. The good ones are going to step in and maybe not perform as well as they could, but they’re going to step in and fight.”

Rop returns after exhausting his cross country eligibility. They will be joined on the men’s side by experienced runners M.J. Ahmad, Paul Arthur, Jesse McDavitt and Matt Mouton.

Sprints/Hurdles

Grover and Herbert give the Lions unquestionably the best one-two sprinting package in the Southland Conference. Sophomores Shaq Brown, Tarvoris Mack and Jordan Rosemond lend support while the freshmen get up to speed. Tess Mullings, Alicia Noel, Ogashi and Nia Stewart give the Lady Lions a strong combination hurdlers and sprinters.

Jumps

Ogashi and Stewart also will see time on jumps for the Lady Lions. Ogashi holds both Southeastern’s indoor and outdoor record in the triple jump.

Throws

Shalicia Rochon, Renada Living and Jessica Fekete give the Lady Lions a strong, experienced throwing contingent while the men will look to freshmen to mature quickly. Rochon turned in two of the best shot put performances in Southeastern history in back-to-back meets during the 2011 outdoor season.

Multi Events

The big indoor meet for the multi events athletes is the ASU Invitational, Southeastern’s second trip of the season to Arkansas State. “We’re going up to this meet at Arkansas State primarily to take our multi-event athletes,” head coach Sean Brady said. “We have a heptathlon and a pentathlon. It’s the only meet we have an opportunity to run these.”

Butler and Pfantz will be joined by Pfantz’s younger sister Ashley in the pole vault. Moore leads the way for the men. His efforts will be supplemented by Brandon Daniels and Johnel Reams. The Lions strongest area outside of sprints is in the pole vault. Simmons has support from Kevin Dorhauer and freshman Vance Law.

2009 Southland Conference Coach of the Year

2009 USTFCCCA South Central Region Co-Men’s Coach of the Year 2009 Louisiana Sports Writers Association Men’s Cross Country Coach of the Year

n his 12th season as Southeastern Louisiana’s track and field coach, Sean Brady eagerly awaits the challenges of coaching a young squad this season. The former Southeastern pole vaulter has built the Lions and Lady Lions into a force in the highly competitive league and expects continued success as his squad learns to compete. Shortly after winning the men’s conference title in 2009, Brady made program history once again as the United States Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association named him the 2009 South Central Region Co-Men’s Head Coach of the Year, sharing the award with Chris Bucknam, head coach of the 2009 SEC champion and traditional national powerhouse program at the University of Arkansas. The national honor came on the heels of being named the Southland Conference Coach of the Year. “I’m very honored to receive this award,” Brady said. “It’s nice to see our program mentioned with some of the best in the nation. However, this award is not about a head guy. This is a credit to the effort our kids put in all year long and a credit to the support our administration and university has given us. Without that, something like this wouldn’t be possible. So I’m happy that our program has put itself in a position to get itself mentioned with one of the best programs in the nation.” Brady’s main duties include overseeing the Southeastern sprinters, hurdlers and relay teams; a group that broke three school records and saw five NCAA Mideast Regional qualifiers during the course of the 2009 season. In total, the Alexandria native oversaw a team that produced ten student-athletes that qualified for NCAA postseason competition in 15 different events. Brady’s 2009 Lions also produced the SLC Athlete of the Year (sophomore distance runner Henry Rop) and Outstanding Field Performer of the Year (junior thrower Adonson Shallow). Under the tutelage of Brady and his staff, Southeastern student athletes have constantly attacked the school record books, setting more than 50 standards since 2002. In the past eight seasons, 81 student-athletes have qualified for the NCAA Mideast Regionals, 17 student-athletes

The Alexandria native attended Northwestern State for one year where he played wide receiver for the Demon football team, before transferring to Southeastern. Brady spent three years in Hammond competing in the pole vault and earned a personal-best mark of 16 feet-5 inches as a senior.

Athletic History S outheastern Louisiana University’s storied athletic history dates back over three-quarters of a century. Now, 15 intercollegiate sports strong, with nearly 330 student-athletes, the Lions are set to enter their 12th year of Southland Conference membership poised for academic and competitive growth into the next century. Southeastern Louisiana University Athletics competes at the Division I level as a member of the NCAA and the Southland Conference (SLC) and sponsors 15 varsity teams - eight women’s and seven men’s. For women, Southeastern sponsors soccer, volleyball, cross country, indoor and outdoor track and field, basketball, softball and tennis. Men’s athletics sponsored are football, basketball, baseball, golf, cross country and indoor and outdoor track and field. Since joining the Southland Conference in the 1997-98 year, Southeastern has won 21 conference championships, including women’s soccer, women’s tennis and men’s outdoor track and field in just the

past two years. Southeastern’s athletic history has many notable chapters including winning national championships in men’s outdoor track in 1975 and women’s basketball in 1976-77. Southeastern’s 1954 undefeated football team is well remembered as one of the finest in the school’s 60-year gridiron annals, and many former football players have gone on to distinguished careers in the NFL. The 1975 baseball team had a glorious year when they advanced to the Division II College World Series, finishing third in the nation. Today, Southeastern strives to be the best among its peers in the SLC and sister institutions in the proud state of Louisiana. It has posted its best marks in the Men’s All Sports Standings, winning the trophy for the first time after the 2008-09 year, and has led all Louisiana institutions in the Commissioners’ Cup standings the past three years. Southland Conference championships

offer Southeastern automatic bids to NCAA post-season play in men’s and women’s basketball, baseball, volleyball, softball, women’s soccer and men’s golf. The school has earned five berths since joining the league, with the latest coming in 2009 with the women's soccer team claiming its first-ever berth in the NCAA Championships. Southeastern also made its mark in post-season NCAA Championship competition, with the golf team placing 23rd in the nation in 1998’s championship tournament, along with qualifying four golfers for the NCAA championship tournament four times and advancing to the NCAA regionals in 2000 and 2007; with the baseball team playing in two NCAA championship regionals in the 1990s; qualifying numerous individuals for the NCAA Championship indoor and outdoor track meets and advancing student-athletes in cross country. Southeastern student-athletes have been named All-Americans in golf and men’s and women’s track and field, and

When I started preparing for the interview I was very impressed with the campus and the attention Southeastern paid to supporting the students; but when I met the people -- the faculty, coaches, and members of the community – I wanted to be a part of it.” At Southeastern, Bellairs will oversee 15 NCAA Division I affiliated programs that compete in the Southland Conference.
