ince beginning his tenure as Georgia State University’s seventh president on Jan. 1, 2009, Mark P. Becker has launched a major strategic planning initiative focused on positioning the university, as it sets its sights on its second century, to become one of the nation’s premier urban universities. Embracing its commitments to recognized excellence in education and research, as well as its unique location in and commitment to Atlanta, the university is poised to rise to new levels of accomplishment and impact.

Under Becker’s leadership, GSU in 2011 approved and began implementation of its 10-year Strategic Plan, whose mission is to position Georgia State “as a dynamic academic community where teaching and research combine to produce leaders and create solutions to conquer the challenges of the 21s century.”

In 2010 Becker oversaw the launching of the Second Century Initiative for faculty excellence, most often referred to as “2CI.” This initiative is recruiting 100 additional faculty members to Georgia State over five years to build internationally recognized scholarly strength and critical mass in areas of priority.

Seeking to recognize the importance and influence of international commerce and technology for Georgia State students and researchers, Becker has worked to enhance Georgia State Uni-

4

versity’s global reach, the cornerstone of which was the opening of GSU’s Confucius Institute in 2010, a partnership with the Beijing Language and Culture University and one of the first business-oriented Confucius Institutes in the United States.

In addition, Becker leads a diverse university whose undergraduate academic profile continues to rise, and a number of the university’s excellent graduate programs enjoy strong national rankings.

Becker also has overseen a number of physical improvements and enhancements including: the opening of the Parker H. “Pete” Petit Science Center; the university’s first freshman housing and dining complex, to be followed by the Piedmont North housing and dining complex coming on line this fall; the construction of on-campus Greek housing; and the purchasing of land for future growth and expansion in downtown Atlanta.

Prior to his appointment to Georgia State, Becker served as executive vice president for academic affairs and provost at the University of South Carolina.

Before assuming that role, Becker spent three years at the University of Minnesota as a biostatistics professor, dean of the School of Public Health and assistant vice president of Public Health, Preparedness and Emergency Response.

2012 GEORGIA STATE SOFTBALL

From 1989 to 2000, Becker was a professor and associate dean for academic affairs at the University of Michigan’s School of Public Health. He also has held academic appointments at the University of Washington, the University of Florida and Cornell University.

Becker earned his bachelor’s degree in mathematics from Towson State University and his doctorate in statistics from the Pennsylvania State University.

Active in the Atlanta community, Becker is a member of the Central Atlanta Progress Executive Committee; Atlanta Committee for Progress Board of Directors; Georgia Aquarium Board; Woodruff Arts Center Board of Trustees; Metro Atlanta Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors; Georgia Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors; Georgia Research Alliance Board of Trustees; Commerce Club Operating Board; ARCHE (Atlanta Regional Council for Higher Education) Board; the Coalition of Urban Serving Universities Board of Directors; and the World Affairs Council of Atlanta Board of Directors.

During his career, Becker has been involved in several professional associations, including the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the International Biometric Society and the American Statistical Association, where he is a fellow. He has been principal investigator on research grants from the National Institutes of Health and the National Science Foundation, and he has published extensively in leading journals of medicine, public health, and statistics.

Becker has served on a number of editorial boards, was co-editor of Sociological Methodology, and was a guest editor for Sociological Methods and Research and for the Journal of the American Statistical Association.

Becker and his wife, Laura Voisinet, have two grown children, Matthew and Julia.

harged with leading Georgia State University athletics in an era of unprecedented growth, Director of Athletics Cheryl L. Levick is changing the face of Panther athletics with the historic launch of Georgia State football and the development of the overall program.

Under Levick’s leadership, the inaugural football season of 2010 was an unqualified success as the first-year team posted a winning record on the field while averaging nearly 17,000 fans for home games at the Georgia Dome. As a result, Georgia State received tremendous positive exposure, both locally and nationally.

Levick’s first two-plus years on the job have been marked by dramatic upgrades in facilities and fund-raising. Annual giving to the Panther Athletic Club has increased more than ten-fold, and the two largest gifts in the history of GSU athletics have been secured. Construction projects include the GSU Football Practice Complex, new facilities for strength and conditioning and sports medicine, and upgrades to every venue used by the Panthers.

Her forward thinking is evident in her reorganization of the GSU Athletics Association and the ambitious, six-year strategic plan she has developed for the future of Georgia State athletics.

With Levick at the helm, Georgia State’s athletic programs are rising in stature in the Colonial Athletic Association. Since her arrival, GSU has claimed six CAA team titles and 16 individual conference crowns while boasting nine CAA Scholar-Athlete of the Year honorees. GSU student-athletes have also excelled in the classroom, maintaining a cumulative grade point average over 3.0 while completing more than 5,000 hours of community service in 2010-11.

With a resume of experience and success at prestigious athletics programs across the nation, Levick came to Georgia

State in March 2009 from the University of Maryland, where she served as chief of staff/ executive senior athletic director, overseeing daily management of the 27-sport program.

Her impressive career includes seven years as director of athletics at Santa Clara University and Saint Louis University as well as nearly two decades in senior administrative positions at Maryland and Stanford University and stints with the Pacific 10 Conference and the NCAA headquarters.

Levick was named the 2001 Division I Athletic Administrator of the Year by the National Association of Collegiate Women Athletic Administrators (NACWAA). In 2005-06, she received the General Sports TURF Systems Athletic Director of the Year Award for the NCAA Division I Central Region, and she was recognized in both 1998 and 1999 as one of the nation’s Top 25 Female Sports Executives by Street & Smith’s Sports Business Journal. She is a past president of the NCAA Division I-AAA Athletic Directors Association.

Before going to Maryland in 2007, she served three years (2004-07) as director of athletics at Saint Louis, where she led the transition from Conference USA to the Atlantic 10 Conference and served as the lead fund-raiser for a new $80 million on-campus arena and practice complex. In 2006, she received the Carl O. Bauer Award as the top amateur sports figure in the St. Louis area.

Levick also spent four years (2000-04) as director of athletics and recreation at Santa Clara University, where she oversaw a major renovation of the school’s basketball arena.

The Broncos’ women’s soccer team captured the 2001 national championship, still the only NCAA title in school history.

Prior to Santa Clara, Levick worked 12 years at Stanford as senior associate athletic director and senior woman administrator.

She served as the primary administrator for

33 varsity programs that won 44 national championships and six straight Sears Cup titles during her tenure.

Levick previously served as assistant commissioner of the Pac-10 Conference, assistant director of communications and women’s programs at the NCAA, women’s gymnastics coach and associate athletic director at Slippery Rock University, and assistant gymnastics coach and synchronized swim coach at Indiana University. She began her career at Pattonville Senior High School in St. Louis, Mo., coaching gymnastics and women’s track.

Levick is a 1974 graduate of the University of Missouri, and she holds a masters degree in athletic administration from Indiana University. She has two daughters: Heather, who is married to Michael Klass, and Melissa.

The Colonial Athletic Association continues to build on its reputation as one of the nation’s top collegiate conferences both athletically and academically.

The CAA encompasses five of the nation’s nine largest metropolitan areas with a geographic footprint that stretches from Boston to Atlanta. The conference has produced 16 national team champions in five different sports, 33 individual national champions, 12 national players of the year, 12 national coaches of the year and 12 Honda Award winners. Just as impressive, however, are the honors accumulated away from competition, which include five Rhodes Scholars and 22 NCAA post-graduate scholars. In 2010-11, more than 1,900 of the league’s 4,000 student-athletes received the Commissioner’s Academic Award after posting at least a 3.2 grade point average while lettering in a varsity sport. The conference had 21 teams in 12 different sports receive NCAA Public Recognition Awards based on the latest Academic Progress Report released in 2011.

The landscape of the conference stretches along the majority of the East Coast, and includes six of the nation’s top 25 media markets – New York (1), Philadelphia (4), Boston (7), Atlanta (8), Washington, D.C. (9) and Baltimore (25). The number of television homes in the CAA market exceeds 20 million.

The CAA conducts championships in 23 sports. Male athletes compete for championships in baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, lacrosse, soccer, swimming & diving, tennis, track & field and wrestling. Female athletes battle for conference titles in basketball, cross country, field hockey, golf, lacrosse, rowing, soccer, softball, swimming & diving, tennis, track & field and volleyball. In 2010-11, 25 teams earned NCAA Tournament berths and 50 student-athletes received All-America honors in 13 different sports.

The conference has made its presence known nationally in men’s basketball with two teams – George Mason (2006) and VCU (2011) – advancing to the NCAA Final Four over the past five years. Three CAA teams earned NCAA Tournament berths for the first time in 2011 as conference champion Old Dominion was joined by VCU and George Mason.VCU knocked off USC, Georgetown, Purdue, Florida State and top-seeded Kansas, while Mason defeated Villanova. The Rams were ranked No. 6 in the final ESPN/USA Today Top 25 poll, which was the high-

est ranking ever for a CAA team. In 2006, George Mason captured the nation’s imagination by becoming the first mid-major program since 1979 to reach the Final Four, posting victories over Michigan State, North Carolina, Wichita State and Connecticut along the way.

Six CAA women’s basketball teams advanced to postseason play in 2011. James Madison represented the conference in the NCAA Tournament after capturing its second straight conference championship. Delaware, Drexel, UNC Wilmington, Old Dominion and VCU participated in the WNIT, with the Seahawks advancing to the second round. ODU, which won an NCAA-record 17 straight CAA titles from 1992-2008, boasts three national championships (1979, 1980, 1985) and was national runner-up in 1997.

CAA squads have combined to win 10 field hockey national titles since the championship began in 1981. At least two women’s soccer teams have advanced to the second round of the NCAA Tournament in three of the past four seasons and William & Mary gave the CAA a team in the final 16 of the NCAA Men’s Soccer Championship for the sixth time in the last nine years. In men’s cross country, William & Mary advanced to the NCAA Championship for the 12th straight year and finished 19th overall. In the pool, Towson’s Meredith Budner finished as the runner-up in the 500 freestyle and 1650 freestyle at the 2011 NCAA Championship and received All-America honors along with George Mason’s Ashley Danner.

Delaware and Towson have each reached the Final Four of the NCAA Men’s Lacrosse Championship in the past decade. The CAA has sent multiple teams to the NCAA Baseball Championship in nine of the last 14 years and has had at least 12 players selected in the eight of the last nine Major League Baseball drafts.

The conference boasts numerous All-Americans in lacrosse, tennis, golf, track and field, women’s lacrosse and wrestling.

Commissioner Thomas E.Yeager has guided the CAA since its inception. The conference traces its roots back to 1983 when three of its current membersGeorge Mason University, James Madison University, and the College of William and Mary - were aligned with East Carolina University, the United States Naval Academy and the University of Richmond as a basketball league (ECAC South).

During the next two years, the league added 11 sports, acquired two new members (the University of North Carolina at Wilmington and American University) and decided to form a new association. The transformation from ECAC South to CAA took place on June 6, 1985.

Charter members George Mason, James Madison, UNC Wilmington and William and Mary were joined by Old Dominion University in 1991 and by Virginia Commonwealth University in 1995. The conference added the University of Delaware, Drexel University, Hofstra University and Towson University in 2001. Georgia State University and Northeastern University became members of the conference on July 1, 2005.

Joining Kincaid on the coaching staff are pitching coach Amy Dumas and hitting coach Todd Downes. This will be Dumas’ second year at GSU and the first for Downes.

The Panthers lose only two letter winners from the 2011 roster to graduation in seniors Lauren Jones and Tiffany Bess.

Although these two valuable players will be sorely missed in 2012, that the Panthers return 16 other players from last year’s squad improves the chances of repeated success. Georgia State also adds a class of seven freshman to bolster the team’s depth and talent.

Pitchers The Panthers return all four of their pitchers from last season’s roster.Seniors Alana Thomas and Erin Collins, junior McCall Langford and sophomore Kaitlyn Medlam all return for the Panthers. Freshman Emily Clay should also provide depth in the circle.

Medlam was CAA Rookie of the Year and was on the All-Rookie team, Langford earned All-CAA first team honors and Thomas was named the conference tournament Most Outstanding Performer.

Langford was the Panther’s ace from 2011, compiling a 15-10 record and 1.83 ERA in 25 starts. She notched 120 strikeouts, seven complete games, four shutouts and one no-hitter.

Catchers Sophomore Maddy Stanton returns after a stellar freshman campaign and will likely split time behind the plate with freshman Taylor Scarpantonio.

Senior Emily Althafer will provide depth at the position.

Stanton was named to the All-CAA Rookie team in 2011 after starting 53 games behind the plate for the Panthers. She was tied for the team high in walks with 23, which helped her record an on-base percentage of .328.

Stanton was second on the team with 268 putouts and had a fielding percentage of .983.

Althafer got the start in the remaining eight games during the season.

Infield Two freshman look to be the option in replacing Lauren Jones who was lost to graduation. Megan Kildahl redshirted last year after being injured in the fall and will compete for playing time with true freshman Lauren “Moo” Coleman at first.

Jones started 60 of 61 games at first last season and compiled one of the best offensive seasons in school history. The senior led the team in hits (56), home runs (14), RBI (40), runs scored (33) slugging percentage (.576) and total bases (106).

Senior Cassie Boese and junior Whitney Philips are the platoon at second base. Phillips started 51 games at second in 2011 and was third on the team with a .287 batting average. She also led the team in stolen bases with 16 in 20 attempts. Boese started 25 games in 2011, splitting time at second and designated player.

Paige Nowacki and Brenna Morrisey will fight for playing time at shortstop. Nowacki led the team with a .305 batting average and started 60 of 61 games last season. The junior also led the team in doubles (12) and on-base percentage (.389) and was second in both home runs (6) and RBI (28).

Third base looks to be the possession of hot shot freshman Callie Alford.

Megan Kallatsa started 44 games last season at the hot corner and will be a serviceable back up. Chelsea Sparks also started 18 games at third, but has moved to the outfield for the 2012 season.

Outfield The only loss in the outfield will be departing senior Tiffany Bess. Bess started 36 games and was third on the team with 23 RBI.

2012 Season Preview PANTHERS

Along with Bess, senior Emily Whitaker, junior Audrey Mason and sophomore Jessica Clifton were the primary outfield starters in 2011. Clifton recorded 58 starts, Mason had 52 and Whitaker had 38.

Clifton was the third Panther named to the all-conference rookie team after starting 58 games and leading the team with 193 at-bats. Mason showed a blend of power and speed by knocking in five home runs and stealing 10 bases. Whitaker was named to the 2011 CAA All-Tournament team.

In addition to the starters, senior transfer Christina Reed returns from injury and two freshman Bethany Horne and Ashley Christy join the outfield rotation.

Designated Player Boese and Morrisey are the Panthers’ best options at DP for the upcoming season. They combined for most of the starts at the position. Both players bring good speed out of the batter’s box.

Schedule Outside of an always competitive CAA slate, Georgia State has prepared an equally challenging non-conference schedule for themselves in 2012.

This includes seven games against team who made trips to the 2011 NCAA Tournament. The Panthers will also see a number of talented instate rivals in Georgia, Georgia Tech, Georgia Southern, Kennesaw State and Mercer.

GSU will host the Georgia State First Pitch Classic and Panther Invitational tournaments in Panthersville to open the season before traveling two a pair of tournaments both held at Twin Creeks Park in Woodstock, Ga.

2011 Year In Review PANTHERS An old foe awaited the Panthers in the opening game of the CAA Tournament as the Towson Tigers looked to avenge six losses in the last seven meetings to GSU, including being eliminated from the 2010 tourney and being no-hit by Langford on March 27. In that regular season game the sophomore struck out six, caused 14 others to ground out and allowed only one fly out in nearly hurling a perfect game. She allowed only one walk on a 3-2 count with two outs in the bottom of the seventh.

The CAA Tournament game proved to be a barnburner as both teams had trouble scoring. The game eventually reached the 12th-inning, which tied it with the longest game in CAA Tourney history, a GSU 3-1 victory over Hofstra in 2009 that took two days to complete. After Towson scored a run in the top of the 12th to give it the lead at 2-1, junior Emily Whitaker stepped to the plate with two outs as GSU’s final hope. Whitaker jumped all over a 1-1 pitch and sailed it well clear of the center field fence for her first career homer, giving the Panthers the dramatic

T

3-2 victory.

Along the way was a rollercoaster of emotions that culminated in one magical week in Hempstead, N.Y.

A 2-0 loss to Hofstra on Thursday put GSU’s back against the wall. After eliminating Towson for the second year in a row, 3-0, the Panthers knew they must beat the Pride twice on Friday to claim the title. Against them was a remarkable streak of dominance by Hofstra. Not only had they beaten GSU seven times in a row dating back to the 2010 season, but the Pride had won eight of nine CAA Tournament titles, had never lost in a CAA Tournament title game and had the nation’s longest winning streak at 30.

he 2011 season turned out to be a most memorable one for the Georgia State softball team as the Panthers hoisted their first CAA Tournament Championship on the home turf of No. 1 seed and arch-rival Hofstra on May 13. That CAA championship advanced GSU to only the second NCAA Regional in the program’s history.

With a boatload of expectations entering the 2011 season with six AllCAA performers returning, the season got off to an emotional start just 10 games in, where with the team sitting at 5-5, legendary head coach Bob Heck stepped down after win number 700 against Appalachian State, moving top assistant Roger Kincaid into the role of interim head coach.

What immediately followed was a streak where the Panthers lost eight out of their next 12 games to put them at 9-13 entering a Sunday game against Belmont.

However, a team meeting in the outfield immediately following a 9-3 loss to Bowling Green seemed to reinvigorate GSU as they then topped Belmont, 8-2, and didn’t look back, going an impressive 23-5 in its next 28 games, including 15-straight CAA wins. The 15 CAA wins in a row were the most by a CAA team in a single season since GSU joined the league in 2006. Their record jumped from 9-13 to 32-18 and put them in a tie with Hofstra at 15-1 for the right to be the No. 1 seed and host the CAA Tournament.

A four-game slide cost GSU a No. 1 seed and right to host, as the Panthers scored three runs total in the four games and were swept by the Pride in a three-game regular season series.

The final loss on Saturday, May 7 to the Pride sealed GSU’s fate of returning to Hempstead for the CAA Tournament on Tuesday, May 10, with game one of the CAAs slated for Wednesday, May 11.

At the CAA Awards Banquet the night before the tournament was set to start, the awards flowed in for the Panthers following a remarkable turnaround season. Eight players and Kincaid received accolades, with freshman pitcher Kaitlyn Medlam becoming the big winner as she was named Rookie of the Year, All-CAA second team and All-Rookie. Kincaid was named CAA co-Coach of the Year. Also earning recognition were pitcher McCall Langford (first team), first baseman Lauren Jones (second team), shortstop Paige Nowacki (second team) outfielder Audrey Mason (second team), designated player Brenna Morrissey (second team), outfielder Jessica Clifton (all-rookie) and catcher Maddy Stanton (all-rookie).

2012 GEORGIA STATE SOFTBALL

Game one proved to be a pitcher’s duel as usual between the two teams as the Pride carried a 2-1 lead into the bottom of the sixth inning. With two outs and two players on, the senior Jones tied the school record for homers in a career as she bombed the 31st of her career to give GSU a 4-2 lead. That would be all the Panthers would need to force a winnertake-all game to decide the championship and NCAA Regional berth.

The championship game entered the sixth inning tied at zero but Jones refused to let the Panthers lose. Again with two outs, the Stockbridge, Ga., native drove a single down the left field line that plated one run. Nowacki followed with another RBI single to give the Panthers a 2-0 cushion and needing only three outs for the title. Junior pitcher Alana Thomas, who would later be named Most Outstanding Performer of the tournament after allowing only one earned run in 18 1/3 innings of work, quickly worked three outs to give GSU its first conference title since 1994.

2011 Year in Review PANTHERS Also honored during the tournament by earning a place on the All-Tournament team were Jones, Langford and Whitaker.

Completing their eligibility for the Panthers was a pair of talented senior starters in Tiffany Bess and Jones.

Despite two losses in the NCAA Regionals to No. 6 national seed and host Georgia and ACC Champion Florida State, there was one bright spot for the Panthers as Jones broke the school’s all-time homers record with a solo shot off All-ACC pitcher and 1,000 strikeout star Sarah Hamilton of FSU.

Jones ended her career as the school’s all-time homers leader, while finishing second in RBI. She was the only junior to ever be elected co-captain, and was on the leadership council as a senior. Jones also displayed quite a glove as she had a career .987 fielding percentage. She started 209 games and had a career .293 batting average, while earning academic honors in all but one semester while playing for GSU.

The Panthers ended the year at 36-25 overall and finished second in the CAA during the regular season with a 15-5 record. The overall record also included four wins in the CAA Tournament. They won 15 games at Bob Heck Field and had a winning record at home, on the road and at neutral locations. The 36 wins were eighth all-time in school history and was the program’s 17th 30-win season in the 27-year fast pitch history.

Throughout the year, the Panthers routinely played top competition as evidenced by their 27 games out of 61 (44%) against teams that finished in the top 100 of the RPI. They were 9-18 in those games, including wins over Chattanooga (45), Hofstra (54), Mississippi State (69), Miami (OH) (85), Kennesaw State (93) and Mercer (99). They also played 11 against the RPI top 50.

There were many performers who deserved recognition for a fine 2011 campaign. Besides the postseason awards that saw Jones, Langford and Mason all earn CAA awards for the second year in a row, Clifton and Medlam each won two CAA Rookie of the Week awards, Langford earned two CAA Pitcher of the Week awards, Medlam was named CAA Pitcher of the Week once and Nowacki was named CAA Player of the Week once.

Langford also became just the second player in the program’s history to earn All-Region accolades as she earned a place on the Mid-Atlantic second team.

The pitching staff had a remarkable season under first year pitching coach Amy Dumas. Not only did they produce the nation’s 27th-best ERA (1.95), but they also had 15 complete games and 12 saves. Junior Erin Collins (T-5th) and Medlam (T-14th) were each in the nation’s top 15 in saves with seven and four, respectively. In conference games, the fourperson staff trimmed their ERA to a tiny 0.82, shutting out six opponents.

Softball once again proved this year that it not only competes hard on the field of competition, but off it as well as 12 student-athletes in the fall and 14 in the spring earned GSU academic honors including two who made the President’s List with perfect 4.0 or better GPAs. Junior Emily Althafer made the list in the spring, while junior Cassie Boese earned a spot both semesters. The Middlebury, Ind., native has been on the President’s List all six semesters at GSU and was named CoSIDA Academic All-District Three for the second season in a row. In 2010 she was named first team at the designated player position, while this season she earned second team honors. Boese also was given the Pickett Riggs Award at the annual GSU Spring Awards Banquet for the female junior with the highest GPA. Also honored at the banquet was Thomas, who earned the Ron Curry Determination award as she has overcome scoliosis to become one of GSU’s top pitchers for three years.

Bess started 93 games in the outfield and finished her career with 66 hits, 57 RBI and 32 runs scored. The Watkinsville, Ga., product also earned academic honors every semester while playing for the Panthers.

GSU and now full-time head coach Roger Kincaid will return 16 lettermen from the championship squad and will welcome back a pair of injured Panthers in redshirt freshman Megan Kildahl and senior Christina Reed.

Ten of the 16 returnees have earned regular season CAA recognition at some point in their careers and only Jones will not return from this year’s honorees. The future looks bright for a program that captured the hearts of Panthers fans during one magical week in Hempstead, N.Y.

Program history PANTHERS

27 Years of Panther Softball 7 Conference Championships 2 NCAA Regional Appearances 5 Conference Player of the Year Awards 6 Conference Rookie of the Year Awards 108 All-Conference Accolades A Brief History of Panther Softball

All-Time Program Record: 836-689-2 (.547)

Georgia State made the transition from slow-pitch softball to the fast-pitch variation of the sport in 1985 under the guidance of legendary head coach Bob Heck.

In the 27 years since that time, the Panthers have racked up seven conference titles, five conference player of the year awards and twice made appearances in NCAA Regionals.

Heck guided the team for 24 years and registered exactly 700 career victories. His name will forever be imprinted on the school, in part because the stadium where the team plays also bears his name.

Georgia State annually hosts two softball tournaments at their home field in Panthersville — the Georgia State First Pitch Classic and the Panther Invitational.

Bob Heck PANTHERS

700-584-2 (.549) Overall Record in 24 Seasons (1985-2011) as GSU Head Coach

In addition to his coaching duties, he has been a diligent groundskeeper in maintaining his field as well as any professional landscaper. Now, he has help with that, but for years, he actually planted, maintained and manicured the shrubs, cut the grass, painted the lines, and rolled out the tarp.

Putting Georgia State Softball on the Map

O

ne person will forever be known as the founder, architect and icon of Panthers’ fastpitch softball.

Heck started a Division I program from scratch, pretty much by himself.

When he elevated the Panther program to the fast-pitch level in 1985, Georgia State was the first Division I school in the state to play fast-pitch softball.

Georgia State’s living legend of softball, Bob Heck took the program from slow-pitch to fast-pitch status more than 25 years ago and has continued the growth pattern ever since.

He guided the fledging program from the New South Women’s Athletic Conference (NSWAC) through its growth into the Trans America Athletic Conference (TAAC) and then the Atlantic Sun Conference. In 2005-06, Georgia State moved into the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA).

Heck entered the 2011 season with 1,276 games coached in 23 seasons as the head coach at Georgia State. With 695 career victories, he ranked among the nation’s active leaders. Heck has been voted the Coach of the Year in the previous Atlantic Sun Conference and the current CAA. Georgia State moved into the Colonial Athletic Association in 2005-06, and the Panthers were picked by the league head coaches to finish fifth in their inaugural season. But Heck guided his team to the regular-season championship and the No. 1 seed in the CAA Championship, which was played at Bob Heck Field.

In five seasons in the CAA, Heck’s Panthers finished third or higher in the league standings each year, including the regular-season title in 2006 and runner-up finishes the last three seasons. With a 70-32 record in conference play, GSU won nearly 70 percent of its CAA games. The Panthers advanced to the CAA Championship game in three of the five seasons.

In the CAA era, Heck coached four CAA Rookie of the Year winners, one CAA Player of the Year, one CAA Pitcher of the Year and two CAA ScholarAthletes of the Year, along with 36 all-conference and all-rookie honorees.

The Formative Years The World War II veteran began in 1981 as a volunteer assistant coach with Georgia State’s softball team, then playing slow-pitch. In 1984, he served as the head coach of the slow-pitch team, but the NCAA did not recognize this as a sport. In the spring of 1985, Georgia State began playing NCAA fast-pitch softball, thanks to Bob Heck’s efforts.

His first season, 1985, was his only losing record in his first 10 years. From 15-24 with losses to SEC, ACC, Big Ten and even a future CAA school (VCU), Heck turned year two into .500 at 26-26 and then year three into a winning campaign at 26-22.

By his fourth year, he had produced his first 40-win team with a 42-20 squad (.677) in 1988. By year five, he had a NSWAC championship team.

In year six (1990), he had yet another conference championship team with a school record-tying 42 wins. In 1993, his 39-16 conference championship team was in the top five in the NCAA South Region rankings.

By 1994, Heck had built a team that was ranked in the Top 25 in the nation and No. 3 in the South Region, and earned an NCAA Tournament bid.

Ironically, he lost a 2-1 game in the tournament to perennial power UCLA, which plucked his top pitcher of two years, Kaci Clark. Clark went on to an outstanding professional softball pitching career. Coach Heck was named the conference Coach of the Year for the 1994 season.

The 1995 season marked the eighth time in the short 11-year history that Heck’s Panthers hit the 30-win plateau.

After 14 successful years as State’s head coach, Bob Heck actually thought he wanted to retire. That lasted for three years, before Georgia State convinced him to come back in the fall of 2001 and coach some more.

Heck coached 24 seasons of his “second career,” including 16 winning campaigns. He has led his teams to five conference championships and has advanced to seven other championship games.

All the team had in 1985 was a rough Recreation Department field, no locker rooms, no practice facilities and no scoreboard. In other words, it was as basic as basic could have possibly been.

Year by year, Bob Heck took this theme: “The ladies deserve the best place to prepare and play, so I will do whatever I can to provide that for them.”

For Heck, that meant coming up with most of the money and providing his own extra financial support to put in a fence, to move the playing field to a new area, to upgrade the playing surface and grounds, to put up a beautiful scoreboard, to put in dugouts with bathrooms, to build a stadium with concrete stands and arm-chair seats, to build a concession stand and press box, and to build a state-of-the-art, indoor practice facility with batting and pitching cages. The facility has a locker room, an athletic training room, a video room, coaches’ offices and a weight room.

It is no wonder the scoreboard, the field itself and the team house are all aptly named in his honor. Bob Heck Field is recognized as an excellent facility and hosted the 2006 CAA Championship.

2012 GEORGIA STATE SOFTBALL

Coach Heck’s 700th career win came on February 20, 2011 with a 3-0 victory over Kennesaw State at the field which bears his name.

Bob Heck PANTHERS During his career at Georgia State, Heck had 59 student-athletes earn first team all-conference recognition, 35 earn second team honors and three earn third team all-conference accolades, while 11 have received All-Freshmen scrolls.

Life Before Georgia State Before softball and Georgia State entered into Bob Heck’s life, he had a remarkable career that showed his dedication, devotion and service. As a young man, World War II interrupted his classroom education for three years of service to his country in the U.S. Navy and an education in the reality of the world.

Coming out of the service in 1946, Heck began an education path that earned a college degree from the University of Georgia. He then earned a master’s degree from Emory, and a MBA in finance from Georgia State.

His early jobs included teaching at Druid Hills High in Atlanta for five years while serving as the head coach of the track team and the assistant coach for the football team.

In 1957, Heck put his master’s in business to good use and began a career as a national bank examiner with the Controller of the Currency’s office for 10 years. He moved on up to the Federal Reserve, the arm of the government that oversees the nation’s banking system and manages the supply of money, credit, and interest rates. He retired as a Vice President of the Federal Reserve in 1991.

Honored off the Field The ever-generous Heck is also known in other ways. Georgia State University honored him in 2005 with its Sparks Award and asked him to serve as the head of the university-wide fund-raising campaign. He generously helped other collegiate softball programs in the metro Atlanta area with his donations and his time.

Heck is one of the eight Founding Life Members of the Panther Athletic Club, the fund-raising arm of Georgia State athletics. He is respected by his First United Methodist Church and serves on its Board of Stewards among his other lifelong service with that church.

In 2011, Heck was inducted into the Georgia Dugout Club Softball Hall of Fame.

Born in Wheeling, W. Va., Robert E. Heck’s family has proven to be the hundreds of young women he tutored in softball and nurtured into adult life, as well as the hundreds of people he touched in the Georgia State community and the city of Atlanta.

His leadership, dedication, commitment and passion for Georgia State and the sport of softball will likely never be equaled and his commitment will always be remembered.

All the while he had his “day job” for 35 years, Heck stayed busy as a high school football referee for 25 years as well as a high school basketball official for five years.
