SEASON OUTLOOK The Utah baseball team enters a new era as it joins one of the best baseball leagues in the country in the Pac-12 conference. Utah returns a solid core of players from last year’s team, including all-conference players Shaun Cooper (outfield), James Brooks (shortstop), Trey Nielsen (third base) and Tyler Wagner (pitcher). However, the Utes lose first-team AllAmerican C.J. Cron and all-conference pitcher Rick Anton. Cron was a first-round MLB draft pick, while Anton was drafted in the eighth round. “The core of our team is back minus C.J. and Anton,” Utah head coach Bill Kinneberg said. “Some of the new guys are really going to make an impact for us – several of our junior college players are capable of making the adjustment to Division I baseball, including Parker Morin, Ethan Leiter and Ryan Cooperstone. Some of the role players from last year will hopefully improve and become really good players for us. “The biggest thing for us is that our depth is going to be challenged. Keeping injuries at a minimum is going to be a key for us. Where we have to improve - and we think we’ve done an adequate job at this - is depth in the lineup and depth in the bullpen. That’s where that grind comes out. The third game of the series is going to be really hard, but hopefully we can manage that and have guys step up for us.” The Utes play five teams ranked in the Baseball America preseason top 25 – Stanford, UCLA, Arizona, Arizona State and Oregon State. Non-conference games include a three-game series against BYU, and a trip to the Kleberg Bank College Classic in Corpus Christi, Texas. “All 10 teams that we’re going to play against in the Pac-12 are quality, highpowered baseball teams,” Kinneberg said. “It’s going to be a challenge week-in and week-out, and we need to rise to the occasion. It’s a hard grind in this league. There are no breathers.”

INFIELD Utah returns two of its four starting infielders in Brooks and Nielsen. Brooks finished second in the conference in batting average (.372) and runs scored (55). He tied for eighth in the NCAA in doubles (26) and was tied for second nationally in doubles per game (0.53). Nielsen was a Louisville Slugger Freshman All-American who was sixth in the conference in slugging percentage (.572). He tied for fourth in the league with nine home runs. “It’s comforting to have both of those guys returning,” Kinneberg said. The right side of the field will feature new faces. Leiter has won the battle early to start at first base. He played two years at Yavapai CC and hit .301 as a sophomore with a .419 on-base percentage. Battling at second base will be junior Ryan Cooperstone and sophomore Cory Hunt. Cooperstone was an honorable-mention all-region selection at the College of Southern Idaho, hitting .352 last year. Hunt

played in 14 games as a freshman, making four starts. “We have three new guys who haven’t really played Division I baseball, so hopefully they mature quickly and make that jump and really contribute,” Kinneberg said. “We need our role players to step up for us to be successful.”

Shaun Cooper was tied for 10th in the NCAA in triples last season.

James Brooks was tied for second in the NCAA last season in doubles per game.

OUTFIELD Cooper, who was named the Perfect Game Summer Player of the Year during summer ball and was selected as a preseason Louisville Slugger All-American, finished sixth in the league in batting average (.332) and was third in slugging percentage (.589) last season. He tied for 10th in the NCAA with seven triples. “Cooper is going to be in the lineup,” Kinneberg said. “We want him in left field, although he may have to play some right field. He’ll hit in the middle of our lineup.” Utah has a variety of players who rotated through the outfield last season, and many of them will see time again this

SEASON OUTLOOK “Both Wags and Adams have a chance to have really great years,” Kinneberg said. “They are healthy and strong and have worked extremely hard to get where they’re at today.” Junior Joe Pond made 12 starts last season and had a 4.36 ERA with a 4-4 record. His 65 strikeouts ranked 10th in the conference, and he did not allow a home run all season. Also slated to start on the mound this season are sophomore Ben Mordini and PITCHERS The pitching staff is led by closer Wagner newcomer Tanner Tripp. Mordini made 11 appearances with three starts last year. and junior starter Zach Adams, who has Tripp was an all-region player at South struggled with injuries throughout his Mountain CC who had 12 wins. career but is healthy to start this season. “Joe Pond is pitching better than he ever Last year Wagner led the conference and has, so we feel like our Friday/Saturday ranked 26th in the NCAA with 12 saves, starters are in good shape at this point,” which also set a single-season record at Kinneberg said. “Tripp and Mordini will Utah. He allowed just eight earned runs start the other two games of a four-game and had a 2.04 ERA. Adams pitched five games, and his 36 strikeouts were leading set, or on Sunday/Tuesday.” The Utes will look to several players in the team when he was injured. He had a 2.40 ERA with a 2-0 record, including a win their bullpen for the late innings. Brock Duke was fifth in the conference with six over No. 16 Baylor. year as they fight for a starting spot early in the season. Sophomore Josh Alexander, senior Tyson Gonzalez, senior Gavin Green and junior Tyler Relf all have significant experience in the outfield. “We have a lot of interchangeable parts in the outfield, and it’s a work in progress,” Kinneberg said. “Hopefully by the time we start conference play we’ll have a set lineup out there.”

Zach Adams has pitched strong in his two seasons, despite struggling with injuries.

Tyler Wagner led the conference and ranked 26th in the NCAA in saves last year.

wins last year. Newcomer Tony Vocca had a 9-5 record as a sophomore at Yavapai CC. Josh Chapman had two saves last season, appearing in 12 games. “A key for us will be our bullpen,” Kinneberg said. “Vocca, Chapman and Duke will be important for us in the sixth, seventh and eighth innings so that we can get to Wagner in a winnable situation.” CATCHERS The Utes have a pair of quality players behind the plate in two-year starter Jo Jo Sharrar and newcomer Morin. Sharrar hit .236 last season, making 43 starts. Morin was a first-team all-region player at the College of Southern Idaho, hitting .372. “We have a really good tandem of catchers with Parker and Jo Jo,” Kinneberg said. “Parker has really established himself at the plate and is one of our better hitters. He will be in the lineup every day. Early in the year they will share time behind the plate. We feel really good about our catching situation.”

Jo Jo Sharrar is in his fourth season behind the plate for the Utes. W W W . U T A H U T E S . C O M

The dedicated and personable Bill Kinneberg is in his ninth season at the helm of the University of Utah baseball team. He was named head coach of the program on Sept. 15, 2004, marking his second stint in the Utes’ dugout. This season he leads Utah into a new era in their first season in the Pac-12. Kinneberg led Utah back to the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 1960 in 2009, as the Utes won their first Mountain West Conference tournament with a 9-3 win over San Diego State in the championship game. Utah won two games at NCAA’s, defeating Gonzaga and Georgia Southern in the Fullerton Regional. Several players have earned national honors under Kinneberg. C.J. Cron was a two-time firstteam All-American in 2010 and 2011, a Golden Spikes Award semifinalist, the two-time District Player of the Year and a two-time MWC Player of the Year. Ryan Khoury earned first-team AllAmerica honors in 2006, and was also District Player of the Year and MWC Player of the Year. Kinneberg has had three players drafted in the first 10 rounds out of Utah, including the Utes’ first-ever first-round selection in 2011, when Cron was the 17th overall pick. Stephen Fife was a third-round pick in 2008, while Rick Anton went in the eighth round in 2011. Kinneberg’s teams have steadily moved up in the conference standings each year and several have rewritten the record books. Cron shattered the career batting average mark during his three seasons. Jay Brossman holds records for hits, doubles and total bases. Khoury holds the school record for career runs scored and Corey Shimada ranks first in the record books for triples, stolen bases, runs scored and walks. Current pitcher Tyler Wagner has a school-record 15 career saves. In 16 seasons as a head coach at the NCAA Division I level, Kinneberg has a record of 452-408. He earned his 400th career victory in the 2009 NCAA tournament with a win over Gonzaga. Kinneberg has coached collegiate baseball for 27 years. His teams established school records for victories in a season at UTEP in 1985, Wyoming in 1990 and Utah in 1996. During Kinneberg’s first stint as Utah’s head coach in 1996, he led the Utes to a 30-22 record. His squad tied for third place in the Western Athletic Conference’s Northern Division and three players earned all-WAC honors.

Kinneberg has also made his mark on the national scene. In 2010 he served as the head coach of the US National Team that won a silver medal at the FISU World University Championships in Japan. Kinneberg has done several stints with USA Baseball. He served as the pitching coach in 2007 and 1999. The 2007 pitching staff turned in a 25-12 mark in international competition, and finished with a scant 1.93 earned-run average. Kinneberg also spent several years as director of the organization’s athlete development program. Prior to joining the Utah staff, Kinneberg worked for the Chicago White Sox organization as a minor league pitching coach. From 1996 through 2001, Kinneberg was the associate head coach at the University of Arizona. The Wildcats were 124-102 and advanced to an NCAA Regional during Kinneberg’s tenure. He served an assistant baseball coach at Arizona State from 1992 through 1994. During the 1993 and 1994 seasons, Kinneberg helped lead the Sun Devils to back-to-back appearances in the College World Series. Kinneberg was the head baseball coach at Wyoming from 1986 through 1992. While in charge of the Cowboys’ program, Kinneberg guided his team to the WAC playoffs in five of his seven seasons. In 1990, he earned WAC Coach of the Year honors, leading Wyoming to a 37-18 record. Kinneberg coached 16 All-WAC players while in Laramie. Kinneberg served as head coach at UTEP in 1985. Prior to that, he was an assistant at UTEP for four seasons. In addition to his duties with USA Baseball, Kinneberg worked with the Italian Olympic team in 1984, serving as pitching coach. Kinneberg is a 1980 graduate of Arizona. He played two years with the Wildcats, going 7-4 on the mound with seven saves, including an appearance in the 1979 College World Series. Kinneberg earned a master’s degree from UTEP in 1982. Kinneberg and his wife Janet reside in Sandy, Utah. They have two children, Joe (11) and David (9).

MIKE CRAWFORD

BRYAN KINNEBERG

Pitching Coach 4th Season

Hitting Coach 5th Season

Mike Crawford is in his fourth year as the pitching coach for the University of Utah. The Utes have consistently been towards the top of the league in several pitching categories. Last season, Utah led the conference in fewest hits, doubles and home runs allowed. In 2010, Utah led the conference in fewest walks, hits and home runs allowed. The team finished second in opposing batting average and saves, behind only College World Series participant TCU. Rick Anton led the conference in wins and ranked third in strikeouts in 2011. Anton was an eighth-round draft pick to the Dodgers. Tyler Wagner set a school record with 12 saves, which ranked 26th in the NCAA. In his first year in 2009, Crawford coached MLB draft picks Brian Budrow and Jordan Whatcott. Utah also set a school record for strikeouts en route to winning the MWC Tournament. Crawford previously spent two seasons as associate head coach at Yavapai College where the Roughriders were 41-16-1 in 2008. They climbed to as high as No. 9 in the national polls, and won their league with a 30-8 mark. Crawford’s pitching staff was one of six schools in the 13-team league with an earned-run average below 4.00 (3.81). Yavapai was fourth in the conference strikeouts (393). From 2002-05, Crawford was the pitching coach and recruiting coordinator at Cochise College in Douglas, Ariz. He helped the Apaches to a pair of second-place league finishes (2004, 2005), and the 2005 pitching staff had the lowest earned-run average in the conference (2.66). As CC recruiting coordinator, he saw three of his four recruiting classes play for a regional championship. Before that he worked two seasons at Pima College in Tucson, Ariz. Crawford played at the University of Arizona from 1999-2000. He was a starting pitcher for the Wildcats both years and was named the Pac-10 Pitcher of Week in May, 1999. He graduated from UA in 2001 with a bachelor’s of science in communication and went on to get his master’s from the United States Sports Academy in 2008. The Tucson native’s playing career began at Yavapai College as a starting pitcher in 1997-98. In 1998, he was named the Arizona Community College Athletic Conference (ACCAC) Pitcher of the Year. Crawford and his wife, Sarah, have a six-year-old son, Kolby.

Assistant coach Bryan Kinneberg is in his fifth season on the University of Utah coaching staff. He serves as hitting coach and is the third base coach. Over the past three seasons, Kinneberg coached C.J. Cron into one of the best hitters in the country. Cron, who was a two-time first-team AllAmerican and a Golden Spikes Award Semifinalist, was a first-round draft pick in 2011. Cron and James Brooks finished first and second in the MWC last year in batting average, while Cron led the nation in slugging percentage. In 2008, Utah led the conference with a .323 batting average. Kinneberg previously spent two years at Oklahoma State as its volunteer assistant coach. At OSU, he assisted with the hitters and infielders and coached first base. The Cowboys led the Big 12 in nearly every offensive statistical category in 2007, including batting average (.319), doubles (144), home runs (86) and slugging percentage (.518). In addition, the team fielded at a .971 clip. While on staff at OSU, Kinneberg saw the team make two postseason appearances. In 2007, the Cowboys were one win away from the College World Series, falling to Louisville in the third game of the Super Regional. OSU went 83-41 while Kinneberg was on staff, and had a school record 11 players taken in the MLB draft in 2007. Kinneberg played at North Carolina State where he was part of two NCAA Regional teams. He also played for Phoenix College in Peoria, Ariz. Kinneberg was an all-district player there, ranking among the league’s best hitters. Phoenix played in the NJCAA national title game in 2001. He graduated from NC State in 2005 with a degree in philosophy. Kinneberg and his wife Stephanie have a son Gavin and daughter Ella Grace.

Employment opportunities, culture, quality of life and recreation are some of the reasons why Salt Lake City is consistently named one of the nation’s best cities. In the June 2010 issue of Kiplinger’s Personal Finance Magazine, Salt Lake City was No. 5 on its list of the “10 Best Cities for the Next Decade.” Forbes Magazine selected Salt Lake City as “The Best City for Jobs” in both 2007 and 2008, and it was termed the “Fittest City in the Nation” in 2009 by Men’s Fitness magazine. Nestled between the Wasatch and Oquirrh Mountain ranges and the Great Salt Lake, the city is located in one of the most picturesque places on earth. The lowest point within city boundaries is 4,210 feet near the Great Salt Lake, and the highest is Grandview Peak at 9,410 feet. The Great Salt Lake (48 miles wide and 90 miles long) is the world’s second largest saltwater lake and the largest lake in the western United States. The city is the cultural, financial, educational, technological, commercial and communications hub of the

Intermountain West. Utah was named the most technologically advanced state in the 2008 Digital States Survey and rated as one of the top 10 most socially networked cities in America. Salt Lake is also home to world-renowned medical and technology industries. Cultural and ethnic activities flourish in Salt Lake City and its vibrant downtown features dining, shopping, music and ethnic festivals, art galleries, professional symphony, opera, theater and dance. The annual Sundance Film Festival, which is the largest independent film festival in the U.S., attracts movie stars, celebrities and thousands of film buffs to the area every year. According to P3/Production Update Magazine, Utah is one of the “10 Best States in the Nation for Film.” Professional sports franchises in Salt Lake City include the Utah Jazz (NBA), Real Salt Lake (Major League Soccer), Salt Lake Bees (AAA baseball), Utah Blaze (Arena Football) and Utah Grizzlies (East Coast Hockey League).

STRENGTH & CONDITIONING Principles of the Program Strength Training

The idea is centered on accelerating quicker than our opponent. We will do this by concentrating on quick and explosive lifts, combined with quick and explosive agility, sprint and plyometric drills.

Speed Development

Each running session will include acceleration drills more than any other drills. The most important aspect of speed development is the athlete must work at maximal effort in each and every drill.

Flexibility

It is a traditional part of every strength and conditioning program. When the athlete is not able to put a body joint through the proper range of motion, it can affect performance in various ways.

Mental Toughness

These weight training or conditioning sessions push the body way beyond comfort levels, and in some cases, to utter exhaustion.

This allows the student-athlete to develop capacity to push through barriers created by pain and fatigue.

Conditioning

Conditioning is best obtained by working the energy system with volume. Conditioning should be cycled with light, medium and heavy days to avoid over-training. Recovery is often better than work.

Injury Prevention

The Utah athlete will be expected to work harder than anyone else when he/she is injured. We will work with the athletic training staff to coordinate efforts to bring the athlete back to the playing field as quickly as possible.

Motivating

We will coach in a very positive manner, always reinforcing our belief in an athlete as a champion in the making. No one out-works, out-hustles or has more ability than a Utah student-athlete.
