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 to become one of the nation’s premier urban universities. Embracing its commitments to recognized excellence in both education and research, as well as its unique location in and commitment to Atlanta, the university is rising 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 launch of the Second Century Initiative for faculty excellence, or “2CI.” This initiative is recruiting additional faculty members to Georgia State 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 University’s global

reach, the cornerstone of which was the 2010 opening of GSU’s Confucius Institute, 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, the Piedmont North housing and dining complex; 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.

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.

n just three years at the helm, Georgia State University Director of Athletics Cheryl L. Levick has overseen the remarkable transformation of Panther Athletics, from the launch of GSU football to the enhancement of every sports program to the announcement that Georgia State will move to the Sun Belt Conference on July 1, 2013.

Levick presided over the Georgia State football program’s highly successful debut in 2010, and now, after just two seasons, she has the Panthers poised for a jump to the Football Bowl Subdivision, a move that will continue GSU’s ascent to the forefront of college athletics.

Her significant imprint extends to the basketball court as she lured successful head coach Ron Hunter, who revitalized GSU basketball in his first season and led the Panthers to their first postseason berth in a decade.

Levick’s first three years on the job have also 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.

And the progress continues. In 2012-13, sand volleyball comes on board as Georgia State’s 19th sport, complete with a state-ofthe-art facility on the GSU campus. The new sand volleyball complex is part of an ambitious Athletics Master Facilities Plan that Levick has developed to address the needs of every sport.

One constant amid the change is the success of GSU student-athletes in the classroom as the Panthers maintain a

cumulative grade point average over 3.0 while completing more than 5,000 hours of community service annually.

In 2011, Levick was recognized by the SportsBusiness Journal as a “Game Changer” among women in sports business.

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 a total of 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 fundraiser 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

THE LEVICK FAMILY: (l-r) Michael, Heather, Cheryl and Melissa.

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 team 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 has built a 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 postgraduate scholars. In 2011-12, 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 19 teams in 13 different sports receive NCAA Public Recognition Awards based on the latest Academic Progress Report released in 2012.

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 2011-12, 24 teams earned NCAA Tournament berths and 51 student-athletes received All-America honors in 16 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 six 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. At least five CAA teams have reached postseason play for the past four years.

The CAA has also had great success in women’s basketball, with six teams making the postseason in 2011-12. Conference champion Delaware advanced to the second round of the NCAA Tournament for the first time and was ranked #7 in the final Associated Press Top 25 poll. James Madison beat two ACC and two Big East teams to reach the championship game of the WNIT.

CAA squads have combined to win 10 field hockey national titles since the championship began in 1981 and ODU reached the national semifinals in 2011. Four men’s soccer teams earned NCAA Tournament berths last season and James Madison became the seventh CAA team to reach the final 16 of the event in the past decade. Hofstra’s softball team won the Los Angeles Regional and became the first CAA squad to advance to the NCAA Super Regionals. At least two women’s soccer teams have reached the second round of the NCAA Tournament in three of the past five seasons.

William & Mary’s men’s cross country squad has made the NCAA Championship in 12 of the past 13 years. Delaware and Towson have each reached the Final Four of the NCAA Men’s Lacrosse Championship. On the track, Mason’s David Verburg placed

School Delaware Drexel George Mason Georgia State Hofstra James Madison Northeastern Old Dominion Towson UNCW William & Mary

fourth in the 400 meters at the NCAA Championship. The CAA has sent multiple teams to the NCAA Baseball Championship in nine of the last 15 years and has had at least 12 players selected in the eight of the last 10 Major League Baseball drafts.

CAA member institutions are committed to excellence in the classroom. The Colonial Academic Alliance was created in 2002 by the league’s presidents with a goal of expanding their partnership to all aspects of university life outside of intercollegiate athletics. Among the programs that have been established are an undergraduate research conference, coordination of study abroad programs and granting visiting academic status to student-athletes traveling to an away contest so that they have access to libraries, academic resource centers and computer labs.

Commissioner Thomas E. Yeager has guided the CAA since its inception. The conference traces its roots back to 1983 when three of its current members- George 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 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.

2013 Season Preview

Panther Pride n With 15 returning letterwinners, including all eight starters in the field, the Panthers look to continue the success they enjoyed last season. GSU should benefit from a good blend of talent and experience in 2013 with five seniors and six newcomers. With a move to the Sun Belt on the horizon, the future looks bright for Georgia State softball.

2013 Season Preview

Softball Looks to Continue Consistent Winning Ways

G

eorgia State softball intends to build on the outstanding success reached during the 2012 season as they move into 2013 with 15 returning letterwinners from last year’s roster.

Catcher

Last season saw the Panthers reach the second-best winning percentage in school history and record the most impressive win in the program annals by defeating eventual national champion Alabama 5-1 in Tuscaloosa.

After splitting time at catcher, designated player and third base last season, Callie Alford was named to the All-Region second team, All-CAA second team and CAA All-Rookie team. The freshman led the team in RBI (43), doubles (13), total bases (80), slugging percentage (.494) and tied for the lead in hits (46) and walks (27).

Roger Kincaid enters his third season as head coach of the GSU softball team. The 2011 CAA Coach of the Year, Kincaid has compiled a 74-43 record in his first two seasons in charge of the program.

Maddy Stanton and Taylor Scarpantonio also return at catcher for the Panthers. Scarpantonio earned 21 starts behind the plate last season, while Stanton, a 2011 CAA All-Rookie performer, started six games.

“Our team has a mixture of experience and talented newcomers,” said Kincaid. “The roster can create competition at all positions. This is an athletic bunch that can score runs and play solid defense.”

Newcomer Hunter Williamson will give GSU even more depth at the position. The Ola High graduate was named to the All-State second team in 2009 and to the All-Region team in 2009 and 2010.

Five talented newcomers look to cushion the loss of eight seniors from last season. These newcomers hope to contribute in their first year in a GSU uniform and live up to the high standard set by last season’s rookies.

Pitcher Returning for GSU in the circle are two-time All-CAA selection Kaitlyn Medlam and sophomore Emily Clay.

“This is an athletic bunch that can score runs and play solid defense.”

“We have some youth in the circle, but we have big expectations of the pitchers and look for them to continue to achieve,” said Kincaid.

Medlam led the team in several pitching categories last season, including wins (14), ERA (1.99), saves (4), strikeouts (98) and opponent batting average (.194). The junior was named to the All-CAA second team for a second consecutive year and was twice named the CAA Pitcher of the Week.

Clay did not give up a hit or a run during limited innings last season. Freshman Katie Worley and transfer Eron Milton should also make an immediate impact in the circle. Both pitchers hail from the state of Florida — Worley from Milton, Fla. and Milton from Marianna, Fla.

2013 Preview

First Base Lauren Coleman started all but four games at first base for the Panthers as a freshman in 2012. Coleman led the team in batting average (.326), on-base percentage (.436) and tied for first in walks (27).

The rookie southpaw earned All-CAA first team, CAA All-Rookie team and CAA All-Tournament team honors in her first season at Georgia State. Coleman was also twice named the CAA Rookie of the Week.

Shannyn Palazzo and Megan Kildahl will serve as back-ups at first base.

Palazzo moves to first from the outfield, where she played in 21 games with nine starts in 2012. Kildahl, who is also capable of playing third base and catcher, has missed the past two seasons with a knee injury.

Second Base Whitney Phillips has the most experience at second of all returning players after starting 43 games at the position in 2012. The senior paced the team in stolen bases a season ago, swiping 12 bags in 14 tries. With 32 Coaches

Records

2013 Season Preview stolen bases over the past three years, Phillips is currently tied for ninth on the Panther career list in the category.

Freshman Jordan Brown will provide depth at second. One of three Ola High School alumni on the team, Brown was named to the All-State, AllRegion second team and Southern Crescent first team in 2010.

Third Base Much like last season, Alford and Paige Nowacki should both see playing time at the hot corner, while also sharing time at designated player. Both student-athletes earned All-Regional honors in 2012, marking the first time that GSU had multiple players selected to All-Region teams.

Nowacki’s 10 home runs during the 2012 season led the team and tied the junior for the fourth-best single-season effort in Panther softball history.

With 20 long-balls in three years, Nowacki is now seventh on the school career home run list.

Shortstop Brenna Morrissey started all but one game at shortstop in 2012, but freshman Taylor Anderson should challenge the senior for playing time at the position. When not playing shortstop, Morrissey could also see work at second base.

Batting primarily in the leadoff role last season, Morrissey lead the team in at bats (181), runs scored (28), fielding assists (126) and tied for the lead in hits (46). Three of her four home runs in 2012 were game winners for the Panthers. Morrissey was an All-CAA second team selection at DP in 2011.

A native of McDonough, Ga., Anderson was an All-Region 4-AAAA First Team selection as a sophomore and junior at Ola High School.

Outfield Ashley Christy, Jessica Clifton, Bethany Horne, Audrey Mason and Carrie Williams all return for the Panthers in the outfield.

Seniors Mason and Williams boast the most playing experience, combining to start 187 games over the past three seasons. Last year alone, Mason earned 49 starts while Williams got 27. Mason was an All-CAA player during her first two seasons and Williams was named the CAA Player of the Week once in 2012.

Kaitlyn Medlam

Clifton was a regular for GSU in 2012, making 48 starts, primarily in centerfield. She was named to the CAA All-Rookie team in 2011 and earned a CAA Player of the Week honor last year.

Christy should see increased playing time after coming on strong as a freshman. The Waxhaw, N.C. native saw 34 starts despite being limited with an early-season injury. Christy earned All-CAA second team, CAA AllRookie and CAA All-Tournament honors.

Horne and transfer MeQuilla Franklin will provide depth in the outfield.

Horne served primarily as a pinch runner as a freshman, while Franklin comes to GSU from Chattanooga State, which won the junior college national championship last season.

Schedule Eleven games against eight opponents who competed in the 2012 NCAA Tournament will highlight the 2013 Georgia State softball schedule.

Among these contests is a return to Tuscaloosa, Ala. where the Panthers defeated eventual national champions Alabama, 5-1, last season. Two other opponents advanced to the Super Regional round of the tournament, including the CAA champions Hofstra.

In addition to the Pride and defending SEC champion Crimson Tide team, the Panthers will also face the 2012 champions of the Southern conference in Georgia Southern and South Alabama, the reigning Sun Belt champs.

During the course of 56 games, the Panthers are scheduled to play a total of 20 games at home, 24 as true road contests and 15 on neutral fields during regular-season tournaments.

The conference schedule will feature home series against George Mason, UNCW and Delaware. GSU will also travel for CAA play to face Hofstra, Towson, Drexel and James Madison.

The 2013 season marks the final year for Georgia State in the CAA, which the Panthers have competed in since 2005. GSU begins competition in the Sun Belt Conference starting in 2014. The Panthers will see two Sun Belt teams in non-conference games this season in Troy and South Alabama. n

Coach Kincaid n Following a legend is never easy, but GSU head coach Roger Kincaid has been up to the task. After taking over for long-time head coach Bob Heck, Kincaid led the Panthers to the 2011 CAA title and an NCAA tournament appearance, for which he was named the conference Coach of the Year. With 74 wins already after only two seasons, Kincaid looks to surpass 100 carrer victories in 2013.

oger Kincaid enters his third season as the head coach of the Georgia State softball team in 2013. In his first two seasons in charge of the program, Kincaid has led the Panthers to a record of 74-43, including a 28-12 mark in conference play.

During the 2012 season, GSU softball posted the second highest winning percentage in the program’s 28 years of competition. The .679 mark (38-18) fell only behind the winning percentage of .709 (39-16) achieved in 1993, when the Panthers won the TAAC championship.

The Panthers won their sixth conference championship and only CAA crown during the 2011 season. GSU knocked off perennial power Hofstra twice in the conference tournament to clinch the title and earn the program’s second bid in the NCAA tournament.

For his efforts, Kincaid was named CAA Coach of the Year in 2011. The victories over Hofstra marked the first time the Pride had been beaten in a CAA Championship game and snapped the longest home winning streak in the country at 30 games.

Georgia State has earned a spot in the four-team CAA tournament both of the years under Kincaid’s guidance, winning the conference title in 2011 and finishing as the runner-up in 2012.

Three student-athletes have been named to the NFCA Mid-Atlantic AllRegion team since 2011. Paige Nowacki became the second Panther to earn first-team honors, while McCall Langford and Callie Alford both were named to the second team. GSU only had two individuals make All-Region teams previous to 2011.

Kincaid has overseen 15 All-CAA team members, including two on the AllCAA first team, eight on the second-team and five on the All-Rookie team.

Pitcher Kaitlyn Medlam was awarded the 2011 CAA Rookie of the Year.

Seven Panthers have earned CAA All-Tournament honors and 19 have been awarded weekly conference honors under Kincaid. Pitcher Alana Thomas was named the 2011 tournament Most Outstanding Performer, only the second time a Panther has earned such a distinction.

A member of the GSU staff since 2008, Kincaid served two-plus seasons as the team’s top assistant coach and recruiting coordinator where his responsibilities included coaching third base and

2012 Season Reivew

Home Run Trot n The Panthers react to a homerun hit by Callie Alford against CAA rival Hosfstra at Bob Heck Field.

The team hit a total of 38 home runs on the season, the fifth most in program history. Paige Nowacki led the group with an even 10 long balls. The 2012 squad set benchmarks in several other offensive categories, including walks, slugging percentage, at-bats and stolen bases.

2012 Season Review

38-18 (13-7 CAA) Big Win at Alabama Helps to Make Historic Season

G

eorgia State softball’s second season under head coach Roger Kincaid continued the consistency of success established by his predecessors and extended that success with a number of landmark victories for the Panthers.

Hofstra for first place in the preseason coaches’ poll. However, the Pride proved too much for the Panthers, winning all five contests played between the two teams and taking the conference title on their home field.

The 2012 season marked the seventh consecutive winning season

by GSU, highlighted by the team’s seventh straight appearance in the CAA tournament. The winning percentage of .679 reached in 2012 now stands as the second best in school history, behind only the 1993 season, when the team went 39-16 (.709).

In the CAA tournament, the third-seeded Panthers earned two wins over No. 2 James Madison, but lost twice to host Hofstra who finished the season undefeated in CAA play. Georgia State has now finished as the CAA runner-up four times.

On April 17, Georgia State softball beat then-second ranked and eventual national champion Alabama 5-1 in Tuscaloosa, Ala. That represented the highest ranked team GSU had beaten in any sport in school history.

The Panthers scored five runs in the fifth inning to hand the Crimson Tide only their third loss of 2012. McCall Langford and Kaitlyn Medlam combined to limit a potent Alabama offense to only one run on four hits.

Georgia State got another win against a ranked opponent by beating No. 25 Georgia Tech in Panthersville on Feb. 29. The victory marked the first time the Panthers beat their in-state rival since 2008. Brenna Morrissey’s sixth inning home run proved to be the difference in the closely fought contest aginst the Yellow Jackets.

All told, the Panthers won games over the 2012 SEC and National champion (Alabama), ACC champion (Georgia Tech), SoCon champion (Georgia Southern) and OVC runner-up (Tennessee Tech). Six of GSU’s opponents earned trips to the NCAA Tournament, including Alabama, Auburn, Georgia, Georgia Southern, Georgia Tech and Hofstra.

Morrissey only hit three more home runs on the season, but the formerwalk-on made them all count as two resulted in walk-off wins. The first came with two outs in the seventh inning against Central Arkansas, while the next delivered a 3-2 win over CAA foe Drexel in the eighth inning.

GSU

2013 Preview

Paige Nowacki’s 10 home runs tied her for fourth highest in the record books, one of only six GSU players to hit double-digit homers in one season. With 20 home runs during her three-year career, Nowacki sits at No. 7 on the all-time list, just two behind Catharine Lee at No. 6.

Callie Alford registered 43 RBI, giving her the fifth highest total in school history and the second most for a freshman. In addition to RBI, Alford lead the team in doubles (13), total bases (80) and slugging (.494).

Nowacki and Alford were both named to NFCA All-Mid-Atlantic Region teams. Nowacki was the only the second Panther to pick-up first team honors, while Alford became the third ever on the second team.

Alford, Lauren Coleman and Ashley Christy were a trio of freshmen to make a significant impact in their first year in a Panther uniform. All three were named to the CAA All-Rookie team and each played in over 40 games. Coleman was named to the All-CAA first team, while Alford and Christy earned second team honors.

Coleman led the team in batting average (.326) and on-base percentage (.436) and tied with Alford for the team lead in walks with 27 apiece.

These three are part of a talent seven-member class of 2015, which bodes well for the future of the program.

Eight seniors ended their careers during the 2012 season. Emily Althafer, Cassie Boese, Erin Collins, Megan Kallatsa, Christina Reed, Chelsea Sparks, Alana Thomas and Emily Whitaker combined for 433 starts and 779 games played over their four year careers.

2012 Season Review Boese finished her career as one of the most decorated academic players in program history. The second baseman was named to the CoSIDA Academic All-District first team for the second time. The accounting major will graduate from GSU with a 4.1 GPA after being named to the President’s List six semesters.

Thomas ended her GSU career sixth in wins (44), sixth in innings pitched (472.0) and tenth in ERA (2.37). Her conference honors included being named the CAA Rookie of the Year in 2009 and the 2011 conference tournament Most Outstanding Performer.

Georgia State was fairly unique among college softball teams in that the Panthers utilized a staff of pitchers rather than relying on a single ‘ace.’

Thomas, Langford and Medlam each logged at least 100 innings pitched and 10 wins in over 24 appearances.

All three pitchers picked up at least one CAA Pitcher of the Week honors, recorded over 50 strikeouts and registered a sub-2.40 ERA. Along with relievers Collins and Emily Clay, this bevy of arms gave the Panthers stability, balance and depth in the circle over a long season.

Overall, 11 CAA weekly honors were awarded to Panthers over the season, a new single season high for the team. Those awards included five conference Players of the Week, four Pitchers of the Week and three Rookies of the Week.

ting average (.263, 7th), stolen bases (52, 9th), hits (390, 10th) and doubles (58, 10th).

From March 31 to April 7, GSU reeled off an eight-game winning streak, which is tied for the third longest in the record books. After that streak was broken in a 3-2 loss at Georgia Tech, the Panthers extended their CAA win-streak to 10 games, which included three straight sweeps over Towson, UNCW and Drexel.

GSU battled often with teams in the top 100 in the RPI including Alabama (2), Georgia (15), Georgia Tech (21), Auburn (31), Georgia Southern (48), Hofstra (49), Chattanooga (61), Kennesaw State (73) and Western Kentucky (79). The Panthers themselves ended 2012 at No. 75 in the RPI and climbed to as high as 61 during the course of the season.

The 2012 squad broke into several categories in the program record books, including walks (174, 2nd), double plays turned (19, 4th), fielding percentage (.967, 4th), home runs (38, 5th), shutouts (16, 5th), ERA (2.26, 6th), runs scored (232, 6th), slugging percentage (.387, 6th), bat-

Despite losing eight seniors to graduation, the team will still return 16 letterwinners for the 2013 season. The Panthers will look to capitalize on a combination of talent and experience to continue their winning ways well into the future. n

Sixteen times last season, the GSU defense held their opponents without scoring. That represents the fifth highest number of shutouts in a single season in Panther softball history.

Pitchers Alana Thomas and McCall Langford both recorded five complete game shutouts in the circle. Thomas threw three consecutive shutouts for 21 consecutive scoreless innings.

Meanwhile, the Panthers were only shutout three times themselves — by No. 7 Georgia and CAA foe Hofstra.

Living by the Longball

The 38 home runs hit by the 2012 team tied for the fifth most hit in a single season and fell only three short of matching the 41 homers hit by the Panthers in 2011.

A total of nine players contributed to reaching the mark, including Paige Nowacki who lead the team with ten. That gives Nowacki 20 total in her career, placing her fourth all-time in the GSU record books.

Nowacki and senior Emily Althafer both recorded multi-homer contests in 2012, tying GSU single-game records in the process.

All-CAA Rookie Team Callie Alford Ashley Christy Lauren Coleman

On April 17, Georgia State earned a 5-1 upset in Tuscaloosa, Ala. over the No. 2 Alabama Crimson Tide. This was the highest ranked opponent any Panther team has defeated in any sport in school history.

The loss was only the third for the eventual national champions on the season and their first loss to an unranked team since 2006.

It was the second win over a ranked team for GSU in 2012 after defeating No. 25 Georgia Tech 2-1 in Panthersville on Feb. 29. The Panthers had not beaten a ranked team since 2010 and hadn’t beaten the Yellow Jackets since 2008.

In two other games against ranked foes, Georgia State lost to No. 19 Auburn 9-1 on Feb. 22 and lost 6-0 at No. 7 Georgia on March 21.

2012 Season Review Winning once Again

pITCHING rOTATION

With their 6-0 win at UNCW on April 6, the Panthers clinched their seventh consecutive winning season. GSU has had a record above the .500 mark in each year since 2006.

On April 14, Georgia State managed their 30th win of 2012 with a 8-0 victory over Drexel. The 30-win campaign becomes the 18th in school history and the sixth consecutive.

Against James Madison, the Panthers clinched their seventh-consecutive trip to the CAA Tournament. GSU has made an appearance in the conference championship every year while in the CAA.

In a sport normally dominated by single starting pitchers, it is almost an oddity that the Panthers should use three hurlers almost evenly. But what coach would not utilize the talents of Alana Thomas, McCall Langford and Kaitlyn Medlam?

Each of these individuals threw over 90 innings in at least 20 appearances last season. The trio has all notched at least 10 wins and 50 strikeouts in that span.

More impressively, all three pitchers earned at least one CAA Pitcher of the Week honors during the 2012 season, and Medlam did so twice, also earning All-CAA second team honors.

On top of that, the Panthers held a pair of relievers in reserve: Erin Collins and Emily Clay. Collins picked up quality innings and a win from the pen, while Clay did not allow a hit or run all season.

Scoring first and scoring fast

Georgia State softball scored a total of 53 runs in the first innings of games this season, more than any other inning. Conversely, GSU has held their opponents to only 25 runs to lead off ball games.

The Panthers compiled record of 16-7 in games where they scored in the opening frame. Similarly, they hold a 27-7 mark when scoring first.

The team was 11-11 when their opponent scored first.

Almost Perfect

Starting pitcher McCall Langford came within two outs of throwing a perfect game on Feb. 26 against Robert Morris. The lefty set down the first 19 Colonials batters in order before allowing a bloop single over third base with one out in the seventh inning. Langford still held on to earn the 5-0 compete-game shut-out win.

The LaGrange, Ga., native almost achieved perfection in 2011, as well. On March 27 at Towson, Langford tossed a no-hitter in a 3-0 win.

The only base runner allowed was a walk with two outs in the bottom of the seventh inning to spoil the otherwise perfect game.

From Walk-on to Walk-Off

Former walk-on Brenna Morrissey hit only four home runs during the season, but two of them resulted in walk-off wins for GSU.

The first came with two outs in the seventh-inning to snatch a 4-3 win away from Central Arkansas on Feb. 25.

On April 14, Morrissey’s solo-shot in the eighth inning vs. Drexel claimed a win in the Panthers’ only extra-inning game of the season.

Morrissey had another solo-homer in the sixth inning against Georgia Tech that proved to be the game winner in a 2-1 contest.

Come Back Kids

In addition to the walk-off wins, Georgia State added a few more dramatic come-from behind victories in 2012.

Paige Nowacki hit the only grand slam of the season in the sixth inning of a 7-5 win over Western Carolina on Feb. 12. GSU trailed the Catamounts 5-1 after four innings.

Against Tennessee Tech on March 2, the Panthers trailed 5-0 after the first inning and 7-2 after the third, but stormed back to win the game 8-7. GSU scored five runs in the fifth inning and Lauren Coleman’s sixth inning solo homer gave the Panthers a final lead.

Georgia STate of Mind

With a name like Georgia State, it makes sense that the Panthers should play most of their games in the state of Georgia. GSU played 39 out of 52 games in the Peach State during the 2012 season.

GSU had a record of 25-12 while playing in their homestate.

In fact, the team didn’t leave Georgia until their March 8 contest in Jacksonville, Ala.; 21 games into the season. The team compiled a 13-4 record outside their home state, with the only losses coming at Delaware, George Mason and to Hofstra in the CAA tournament.

In all, the Panthers visited six states outside of Georgia: Alabama, Delaware, New York, North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia.

Final: 76 Senior Citizens

After graduating only two seniors in 2011, Georgia State boasted a senior class of eight players on its 2012 roster: Cassie Boese, Erin Collins, Megan Kallatsa, Christina Reed, Chelsea Sparks, Alana Thomas and Emily Whitaker.

Between them, the Class of 2012 logged 416 starts in 748 games played over four years. Those numbers don’t includ the games Reed played before transferring to GSU as a junior.

All eight senior student-athletes were honored during the annual Senior Day on April 29 against James Madison; a game which saw six of these seniors in the starting lineup.

The lone seniors of 2011 were first baseman Lauren Jones and outfielder Tiffany Bess. Jones finished her career as the all-time program leader in home runs and remains a part of GSU softball as a student assistant coach. rookie sensations

Directly opposite of these seniors was the stellar class of freshman who began their Georgia State careers in 2012. From that group, Callie Alford, Lauren Coleman and Ashley Christy were named to All-CAA and CAA All-Rookie teams.

Alford started every game for the Panthers at three different positions. Her 43 RBI led the team and ranks fifth in the single-season GSU record books.

Coleman was a consistancy for GSU at first base. She paced the team in both batting average and on-base percentage. Both Coleman and Alford garnered CAA Rookie of the Week honors.

Christy contributed significant starting time in the outfield and was honored by the conference as the CAA Player of the Week once.

Freshmen Emily Clay, Bethany Horne, Shannyn Palazzo and Taylor Scarpantonio all saw significant playing time and provided the team with much needed depth.

Making History n It wasn’t all that long ago, but the 2011 team made history when they captured the CAA title and made only the second NCAA regional appearance in the 28 years of the program. First baseman Lauren Jones led the way and made a dent in the record books by becoming the all-time leader in homers and second in RBIs. The conference title was the sixth for GSU.

GSU Conference History

All-Time Program Record: 874-707-2 (.552)

1964 — Start of Georgia State NCAA athletic program 1976 — GSU one of six founding members of Sun Belt Conference 1981 — Men leave Sun Belt, independent for two years 1983 — Men join the Trans America Athletic Conference 1985 ­— Start of GSU fast pitch softball program 1985 — Women join New South Women’s Athletic Conference 1991 — Women’s teams join the TAAC 2001 — TAAC changes name to the Atlantic Sun 2005 — GSU joins the Colonial Athletic Association 2012 — Georgia State announces a move back to the Sun Belt in 2013-14

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. At the time of their transition, GSU had the only collegiate fast-pitch softball team in the state of Georgia.

In the 28 years since that time, the Panthers have racked up six conference titles, five conference player of the year awards and twice made appearances in NCAA Regionals. Five Panthers have been named to NFCA All-District teams, including three since 2011.

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

GSU softball recorded a win over the highest-ranked opponent in Georgia State athletics history by defeating the No. 2 Alabama in Tuscaloosa during the 2012 season. The Crimson Tide went on to win the national championship and the Panthers recorded the second-best winning percentage in program history by winning 38 games.

Bob Heck

Bob Heck 700-548-2 (.549) Overall Record in 24 Seasons (1985-2011) as GSU Head Coach

O

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

Heck finished his coaching career during the 2011 season with exactly 700 wins in 1,276 games over 24 seasons. He was twice voted as the conference coach of the year, once in the TAAC and one in the 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.

During the CAA era, Heck coached four Rookie of the Year winners, one Player of the Year, one Pitcher of the Year and two Scholar-Athletes 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.

In addition to his coaching duties, he has been a diligent groundskeeper in maintaining his field as well as any professional landscaper. Now, he had 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 Heck started a Division I program from scratch. 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.

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).

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.

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.

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.

Bob Heck Life Before Georgia State

Honored off the Field

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
