KANSAS WESLEYAN COYOTES WELCOME TO TODAY’S GAME FROM ATHLETIC DIRECTOR MATTHEW WILLIAMS Welcome to Kansas Wesleyan University, the home of the Coyotes. As I embark on my sixth campaign as Athletic Director, KWU continues its commitment to excellence, providing outstanding opportunities for student-athletes to excel not only in athletics, but also in the classroom. KWU’s commitment to give students the tools they need to succeed is evident all over campus.

Our athletic programs continue to be a dominant force in the Kansas Collegiate Athletic Conference and continue to make a strong showing and positive representation of Kansas Wesleyan at the national level as our Women’s Cross Country, Men’s Soccer, Women’s Basketball and Baseball teams represented KWU and the KCAC at NAIA Championship events in 2009-10.

Our athletic programs also are committed to being the best of the best. Over the last five years, the Coyotes have won 28 KCAC and NAIA Regional Championships and has had the best overall and in-conference records in the conference for three of the last four years in the eight major team sports sponsored by the KCAC (football, volleyball, women’s soccer, men’s soccer, men’s basketball, women’s basketball, baseball and softball). Over the last five years KWU boasts the best in-conference record in the eight major sports in the KCAC, tallying a 389-211-3 record in conference play, winning 65 percent of the time.

We also have launched a new athletics website: www.kwucoyotes.com giving us one of the strongest presences on the web in our conference, and I applaud the efforts of Sports Information Director David Toelle for getting our website up and running in just a short amount of time.

This year we are emphasizing our “Commitment to Excellence” through the four cornerstones of success as outlined by President Lamkin – Responsibility, Respect, Fairness and Integrity; in addition to continuing our emphasis on the “Three E’s,” where student-athletes are: EXPECTED to graduate from Kansas Wesleyan University, EXPECTED to strive just as hard in the classroom as on the athletic field, and EXPECTED to have a winning season.

Our coaches have continued to recruit high quality student-athletes that excel not only on the athletic field, but in the classroom as well. Last year, our Women’s Basketball and Volleyball teams were named as NAIA Scholar Teams, and the Volleyball team earned the Academic Team Award from the American Volleyball Coaches’ Association, one of only 34 teams at the NAIA level to receive the award.

The faculty, staff, and administration of Kansas Wesleyan University have all taken pride in what we have accomplished and will continue to take pride in the success we will have this year both on and off the athletic playing field.

I hope you enjoy today’s contest and are impressed with our student athletes’ accomplishments both on and off the athletic field.

As you look around here today and through this athletic program, I encourage you to please support all our local sponsors and thank them for supporting these young student athletes. These sponsors play a very important role in maintaining the success of the athletic programs here at Kansas Wesleyan University.

KANSAS WESLEYAN COYOTES

THIS IS COYOTE ATHLETICS Kansas Wesleyan University prides itself on being the best of the best. Over the last five years, the Coyotes have won 28 KCAC and NAIA Regional Championships, a mark unprecedented over that time span. In addition, KWU has had the best overall and inconference records in the conference for three of the last four years in the eight major team sports sponsored by the KCAC (football, volleyball, women’s soccer, men’s soccer, men’s basketball, women’s basketball, baseball and softball).

Over the last five years KWU boasts the best in-conference record in the eight major sports, tallying a 389-211-3 record in conference play, winning 65 percent of the time. The best season came in 2006-07 when KWU won 90 of the 119 conference contests it played.

No other school has won more than 85 conference games in a single season over that same time period.

It doesn’t stop there. The University has made strides in the last few years to upgrade its athletic facilities to some of the best at the small college level in the state of Kansas and in the entire region. In 2008, KWU opened the Student Activities Center that features Mabee Arena. Mabee is like no other facility in the area at this level, seating approximately 1500 and featuring some high tech, high quality features you will not find anywhere else.

Complimenting the Arena is the Hauptli Student Center and the Everett Morgan Strength Training Center, along with the Brown Mezzanine, new Athletic Training facilities and coaches offices. KWU also recently announced plans to renovate the Martin Stadium area to revitalize that area of campus.

In the last four years, Wesleyan has had 359 All-KCAC selections, including 177 as First Team nods. 50 players have received individual conference honors and 17 times a KWU coach has been selected as a KCAC Coach of the Year in their respective sport. Wesleyan boasted 36 All-NAIA Region IV players over the last three years of regional play, and four times coaches were named Regional Coach of the Year. KWU has had 39 NAIA AllAmericans in the last four seasons, including 12 in 2008-09. Two Wesleyan coaches have received honors at the national level, including Colby Hensley (AFCA-NAIA Assistant Coach of the Year, 2006) and Mike Dibbini (2007 NSCAA Great Plains Region Women’s Soccer Coach of the Year).

In addition to our athletic program, our students can choose from a full range of student activities that appeal to a wide variety of interests. Just a few examples of student activities include vocal and instrumental music groups, theatre, studio arts, debate and forensics, yearbook, newspaper, student government, ministry and fellowship groups, intramurals, and numerous other special interest organizations. These activities allow student-athletes become actively involved on campus outside of athletics.

2010 FALL SPORTS GUIDE

KANSAS WESLEYAN COYOTES THE KANSAS COLLEGIATE ATHLETIC CONFERENCE (KCAC) The Kansas Collegiate Athletic Conference, commonly called “The Kansas Conference,” is a prominent intercollegiate athletics conference comprised of ten outstanding independent or private institutions of higher education in the state.

The origins of the KCAC are traced to February 15, 1890, when the Kansas Intercollegiate Athletic Association became the result of the first successful attempt at organization among Kansas colleges, “to promote and regulate amateur intercollegiate athletics.” At that time the association or conference included not only private universities and colleges but also Kansas Agriculture College (now KSU), Kansas University, and Washburn University. Football seems to have been the major sponsored sport, and Baker University won the championship for the first three or four years.

In about 1902 this early association became allied with the Kansas College Athletic Conference, a group which was the first to adopt a definite set of rules and regulations. It also promoted an annual track and field meet which has continued yearly since, except for World War years. Basketball has been sponsored since 1904. Football was revived in 1907. Tennis began as early as 1912. Golf was added in 1923. By this time the name of the conference had been altered to the Kansas Collegiate Athletic Conference; it had grown to 17 college members and two allied members: Baker, Bethany, Bethel, College of Emporia, Fairmount (now WSU), Friends, Kansas Wesleyan, KSTC of Emporia (now ESU), KSTC of Hays (now FHSU), KSTC of Pittsburg (now PSU), McPherson, Ottawa, St.Benedict’s (now Benedictine), St.Mary’s, Sterling (formerly Cooper), Southwestern, and Washburn, and with St.John’s and Kansas City University (Kansas) as allied members. Kansas University and Kansas Aggies had dropped out earlier to join other conferences. In 1923 the College of Emporia, KSTC of Emporia, KSTC of Hays, KSTC of Pittsburg, Wichita (formerly Fairmount), Southwestern, and Washburn withdrew to form the Central Conference.

The present legal entity comes from a reorganization of the conference when the predecessor Kansas Intercollegiate Athletic Conference formally disbanded on December 1, 1928, and a new conference was formed which again was called the Kansas College Athletic Conference. The members were Baker, Bethany, Kansas Wesleyan, McPherson, Ottawa, and St.Mary’s colleges. At that time sportswriters quickly gave the KCAC league a nickname: the “Little Six,” in contrast to the Big Six (which became Big Eight, now Big 12) which also was organized in 1928. St.Mary’s College was discontinued in 1931. The College of Emporia returned to the fold in 1933, and Bethel was readmitted in 1939. Friends, a former member of the KIAC, was admitted in 1953. Sterling and Southwestern were approved for membership in 1958. In 1968 Tabor College and St. Mary of the Plains College were admitted to make twelve members in the conference, and the conference was organized into Southern and Northern divisions until 1970 — when Baker, College of Emporia, and Ottawa withdrew to join two separate Missouri-based conferences. In the mid-1970s the formal name was changed again to Kansas Collegiate Athletic Conference. In 1975 women’s intercollegiate athletics were incorporated into programs of the KCAC. Ottawa was readmitted in 1981, bringing the conference membership to 10. In 1992 St.Mary of the Plains College in Dodge City left the conference and eventually closed. In 1999, Saint Mary College (now University of Saint Mary) joined to return the KCAC membership to ten institutions.

The “Kansas Conference” (KCAC) continues to be an all-Kansas conference. The KCAC is an affiliated conference of the National Association of intercollegiate Athletics with headquarters in Kansas City, Mo.. Today the KCAC sponsors conference intercollegiate athletics in football, volleyball, men’s cross country, women’s cross country, men’s soccer, women’s soccer, men’s basketball, women’s basketball, men’s indoor track and field, women’s indoor track and field, men’s outdoor track and field, women’s outdoor track and field, baseball, softball, golf, women’s tennis, men’s tennis.

KANSAS WESLEYAN COYOTES THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS (NAIA) A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE NAIA 1937 | Dr. James Naismith and local leaders form National College Basketball Tournament staged at Municipal Auditorium in Kansas City, Mo. 1938 | Basketball tournament expands to 32 teams 1940 | National Association of Intercollegiate Basketball (NAIB) formed; first convention held 1948 | John Wooden’s Indiana State team brings first African-American student-athlete to the NAIB tournament 1952 | NAIB adopts new moniker – National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) - and introduces men’s championships in golf, tennis and outdoor track and field 1953 | NAIA becomes first collegiate association to invite historically black institutions into membership 1957 | Tennessee State becomes the first historically black institution to win a collegiate basketball national championship 1980 | NAIA becomes first collegiate athletics association to sponsor both men’s and women’s championships by adding women’s basketball, cross country, gymnastics, indoor track and field, outdoor track and field, softball, swimming and diving, tennis and volleyball championships 1986 | NAIA Council of Presidents moves from advisory to governance role 1988 | Strict academic eligibility standards for all participating student-athletes adopted

The purpose of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) is to promote the education and development of students through intercollegiate athletic participation.

Member institutions, although varied and diverse, share a common commitment to high standards and to the principle that participation in athletics serves as an integral part of the total educational process.

The NAIA embraces the concept of the student and recognizes the importance of the individuality of each member institution, the value of the conferences and Association of Independent Institutions (A.I.I.) structure, and the benefits of membership in a national association.

NAIA AT A GLANCE

The NAIA supports gender equity. Gender equity is an atmosphere and reality where fair distribution of overall athletic opportunity and resources, proportionate to enrollment, are available to women and men, and where no student-athlete, coach or athletics administrator is discriminated against in any way in the athletics program. That is to say, an athletics program is gender-equitable when the men’s sports program would be pleased to accept as its own the overall participation opportunities and resources currently allocated to the women’s sports program and vice versa.

• Nearly 300 member colleges and universities

The NAIA has 50,000 student-athletes participating at nearly 300 member colleges and universities throughout the United States and Canada. Divided into 25 conferences and the Association of Independent Institutions (A.I.I.), the NAIA offers 23 championships in 13 sports.

• First to include women in national championships

• 23 national championships • 650,000 students • First to include black colleges and students in championships

• First to develop system-wide character initiative with substantive programming

Since 1937, the NAIA has continued a long tradition of pushing the envelope and making a positive difference in the lives of students, coaches and parents. The Champions of Character program is the latest cutting-edge addition to the NAIA’s proud history of innovation.

Through Champions of Character, the NAIA seeks to create an environment in which every student-athlete, coach, official and spectator are committed to the true spirit of competition through the five core values: respect, integrity, responsibility, servant leadership and sportsmanship.

2000 | NAIA introduces Champions of Character initiative along with its new brand emphasizing character development among NAIA studentathletes 2001 | NAIA headquarters returns to metro Kansas City in partnership with the City of Olathe, Kan. 2007 | NAIA opens new headquarters in downtown Kansas City, Mo.

2010 FALL SPORTS GUIDE

KANSAS WESLEYAN COYOTES 2010 VOLLEYBALL SEASON OUTLOOK “I am 100% confident that we are going to be better than last year,” said Kansas Wesleyan coach Fred Aubuchon in preparation for the upcoming season which begins September 3 in Chicago.

Of course, being better is not too difficult considering the 2009 team, Aubuchon’s first at KWU, went 1-34 overall, with the only win coming via forfeit.

Better not only record wise, but talent wise is something that Aubuchon and the Coyotes are looking forward to in 2010.

“I think with the players we have added and the work we did in the off season, we are stronger, deeper and with the changes in the KCAC rules, I think we now have enough time to prepare ourselves to start the season.”

step into the mix.

VOLLEYBALL THE SCHEDULE

The Coyotes will open the season September “Both Juli and Jennifer come in with junior college 3 at the St. Xavier / Illinois Tech Tournament in experience and defensive experience and will be Chicago against some top competition. difference makers for us this year,” he said.

“It’s going to be a great test to show us what we truly need to work on,” Aubuchon said. “The BACK ROW Aubuchon’s number one concern in the offseason whole idea of heading to Chicago to play great was the play in the back row. He felt the passing competition is to get us ready for Bethany and element was just not there last year and that hurt the rest of the conference.” the Coyotes.

Wesleyan opens the KCAC portion of the Joining returners Tiffany Goetz (5-6, Jr., Hoxie, Kan. schedule on September 8 against the Bethany / Hoxie HS) and Jordyn Rahlf (5-9, Jr., Kasson, Minn. Swedes in Lindsborg. / Kasson-Mantorville HS) are newcomers Pauline Yang (5-4, So., Kansas City, Kan. / Coffeyville CC “The conference will be very tough again (Kan.)) and her sister Marlene (5-0, Fr., Kansas City, this year, and we have a lot to prove after last Kan. / Turner HS), Kelsey Boyles (6-0, Jr., Salina, year in the KCAC,” Aubuchon said. “I have the Kan. / Highland CC (Kan.)) and Allie Myers (5-5, Fr., highest respect for teams like Tabor and Friends Salina, Kan. / Salina Central HS). Aubuchon feels that have been consistently at the top of the that combining the defensive experience at setter conference and it’s my goal to reach their level with the improved back row play should provide this year.” offensive and defensive stability.

The KCAC recently passed its new Sport Regulation Initiative over the summer, allowing teams to begin practice for fall sports earlier than ever before, which is benefitting all fall “Tiffany and Jordyn have improved vastly over last sports programs. season and with the newcomers, our back row is very strong this year,” he said. “It may be our strong Aubuchon’s number one concern is what the point for the season.”

Coyotes will be able to do once they get into conference play in the KCAC.

FRONT ROW (HITTERS)

“I would like to be a really great team, but my number one concern is what we can do in the KCAC,” he said. “In the future my concerns can be even higher, but this year it’s all about holding our own in the KCAC.” The Coyotes have 21 players on the 2010 roster, up considerably from the last few years, and the coaching staff sees a strong mix of newcomers and returning players competing for playing time this year.

Heading into the preseason, Aubuchon felt that the middle hitter position was going to be the strong point in the front row, but as practice has progressed, the outsides have really made strides on both the left and right sides.

Two newcomers have been key to rebuilding the middle hitter position. Those players include Boyles, who missed all of last season with a knee injury and Jamisha Johnson (5-10, Jr., Dodge City, Kan. / Dodge City CC (Kan.)).

“Both are juniors with collegiate experience behind “I feel very comfortable with our depth at every them, which made me feel really good about our position this year,” Aubuchon said. “I know middles, but our outsides have progressed greatly that we are very strong with the number twos during practice so far,” he said.” at every position, which makes me feel very confident heading into the year.”

On the outside, Aubuchon has seen great improvement in a couple of the returning players in SETTERS Rahlf and Faith Ramsey (5-10, So., Wellington, Colo.

She came one of my main concerns in the off season,” into camp well prepared and has improved almost Aubuchon said. every facet of her game and will be competing for a spot on the right side for us.”

2010 WOMEN’S SOCCER SEASON OUTLOOK are a pair of players that fit that role nicely.

“The goalkeeper position is still very much up in the air heading into the season,” Dibbini said. “Hannah and Ameenah will be able to get our “Karina has the most experience of our returners, offense going and free up Dani and Diana to and Amanda was very good at Solano CC last finish,” Dibbini said. season, but it’s still up in the air right now.”

Dibbini looks for her to have “I was a little disappointed with our offensive through the midfield this season. a breakout season in 2010 after missing a attack last year in terms of not stepping up to the plate,” he said. “Yeah, we lost a lot of scoring “I think the brains and control of our team will go majority of the 2009 season with an injury, but from the previous year, but I guess I learned my directly through the midfielders this year,” he said. still earning KCAC Co-Newcomer of the Year honors. lesson that I have to look for those players with a hunger to get better and help the team score Corina Villegas (Sr., 5-3, Perris, Calif. / Cerritos goals and win, rather than settling with those College (Calif.)), Elba Menjivar (Sr., 4-11, Panorama “I think that Corina will have a break out year that are complacent with where they are.”

Kansas Wesleyan coach Mike Dibbini heads into the 2010 season with a high level of confidence that the Coyotes can regain control of the KCAC Women’s Soccer world after a down season in 2009, in which Wesleyan finished second in the conference and failed to win the KCAC Tournament for the first time under Dibbini’s direction.

THE DEFENSE

Wesleyan’s back line returns a group that is young, but has a year of experience at this level, which will help greatly. Playing together for a season already has helped the back line gel and come back stronger than last season.

Transferring from South Carolina State is Dani Benton (So., 5-5, Trabuco Canyon, Calif. / South Carolina State), the younger sister of former Wesleyan All-American Kat Benton, along with California Baptist transfer Diana Ravenda (Jr., 5-3, Laguna Niguel, Calif. / California Baptist University).

“Our strides have been huge in the back line,” Benton led the Bulldogs in goals scored last season Dibbini said. with 19.

Brittany Corcoran (So., 5-7, Long Beach, Calif. / St. Joseph HS) will anchor the back, along with returners Leanne Brown (So., 5-6, Palmdale, Calif. / Highland HS)and Rachelle Medina (Jr., 5-2, Ventura, Calif. / St. Bonaventure HS).

GOALKEEPER In goal, the Coyotes return three players all who split time last season in KJ Stupey (Jr., 5-6, Everett, Wash. / Kamiak HS), Erin Gilmour (So., 5-5, Temecula, Calif. / Chaparral HS) and Karina Albarran (So., 5-4, Lancaster, Calif. / Paraclete HS), but Dibbini has brought in transfer player Amanda Radich (Jr., 5-8, Vacaville, Calif. / Solano College (Calif.)) that brings much needed experience into the mix leaving the door wide open at goal as to who will get the starting nod.

WWW.KWUCOYOTES.COM

Dibbini feels that the target is back on the back of the Coyotes heading into the 2010 conference season, as was duly noted by the coaches of the conference, giving KWU the unanimous first place selection in the preseason poll.

“I think we will be the team to beat in conference,” he said. “We will see strong competition from both Ottawa and McPherson as in the past.”

“Dani and Diana are going to do well together and bring a different element,” Dibbini said. “Obviously Ottawa returns nearly its entire lineup and we have other athletic players that can pass and McPherson always presents a challenge for the can find the back of the net or be able to cause Coyotes. enough havoc to get others open to create opportunities to score. Dani and Diana have a great understanding on how to finish and when to finish. They are filling that void left by Kat Benton and Eliana Parada after the 2008 season.”

Ravenda is a great ball handler and knows when to shoot or when to pass according to Dibbini, while Benton is a great player with her back to the ball, with the ability to turn and score or dish the ball off to a teammate.

MEN’S SOCCER

2010 MEN’S SOCCER SEASON OUTLOOK Kansas Wesleyan Men’s Soccer looks to return to the level they have sustained the last few seasons that culminated in a KCAC Tournament Championship in 2009 after back to back Regular Season Championships in 2007 and 2008.

The Coyotes will be a new look team, especially up front with the loss of key goal scorers Art Guizar and Jose Garay, but head coach Mike Dibbini has reloaded the team and feels the team will be right in the hunt for another conference title. The rest of the conference agreed, picking Wesleyan first in the preseason poll.

With all the new, a lot of questions remained unanswered, but Dibbini is confident the Coyotes will be okay.

“It’s too hard to tell right now if we can ever match the power of what Jose Garay and Art Guizar brought,” he said. “They connected really well and they understood what it takes to put the ball away. But I think the difference will be our depth at all positions this year.”

/ Mt San Antonio College (Calif.)) and Cacey Scott GOALKEEPERS (Jr., 5-9, 160, Santa Clarita, Calif. / Mt San Antonio The battle in the net seems to have a clear early College (Calif.)). favorite in returning starter Diego Millan (Sr., 5-8, 165, Lynwood, Calif. / Cerritos College (Calif.)), but newcomers Roberto Sanchez (Jr., 5-11, 170, THE MIDFIELDERS David Hernandez (Sr., 5-7, 150, Inglewood, Calif. / Los Angeles, Calif. / LA Harbor College (Calif.))

The Coyotes have added a little more support in the middle with the addition of Hernandez’ junior Dibbini points out that Millan is the current college teammate Rodolfo Jauregui (Jr., 5-10, 170, number one, while Sanchez and Morales will battle for the number two spot and returning Bellflower, Calif. / LA Harbor College (Calif.)). sophomore Nick Ciliberti (So., 6-3, 185, Enid, “David and Rodolfo play together really well,” Okla. / Enid HS) will look to fit into the goalkeeper mix as well.

Dibbini said.

Larry Guizar (Jr., 5-10, 175, Santa Clarita, Calif. / College of the Canyons (Calif.)), the cousin of Art Guizar, will also be a complimenting player in the midfield for the Coyotes this season, who also has the ability to move up into a forward-type role.

“Diego is our number one right now, but he can’t take a day off or fall asleep, Roberto and Juan are breathing right down his neck,” he said. “Nick is still in the mix as well, but his lack of collegiate experience is what is holding him back right now.”

“Larry brings a threat in terms of having a nice shot and a nice leg from the outside,” Dibbini said. THE SCHEDULE The depth will be key in keeping the Coyotes “He understands the game really well and is very As on the women’s side the men’s schedule from becoming too one-dimensional, aggressive and will be really good in the middle provides a formidable selection of opponents, something that plagued the Coyotes towards for us.” especially in the non-conference portion of the the end of the year last year. slate.

“Last year teams figured out who to try to shut down as the year wore on,” he said. “I think that we will have the ability to be more spread out offensively, which will in turn create opportunities for us. We might not be able to finish as well as we did last year, but we will be able to create more opportunities for us to score which will turn into goals for us.”

THE DEFENSE

THE FORWARDS

The Coyote front line will be all new for 2010, with the exceptions of Trenton Corea (Sr., 5-9, 155, Mesa, Ariz. / Red Mountain HS) and Robbie Hector (Sr., 6-1, 150, Simi Valley, Calif. / Moorpark College (Calif.)), who both missed the 2009 campaign with injuries.

“I would say our schedule is an above average schedule in terms of strength of our opponents,” Dibbini said.

Wesleyan opens the year with Morningside on September 4, a team that the Coyotes tied last season and then take on Concordia (Neb.) Also looking to make many marks on the scoresheet before heading out to California to play Azusa will be Alex Chavez (Jr., 6-3, 185, Los Angeles, Calif. Pacific and California Baptist. / LA Harbor College (Calif.)), who Dibbini calls the ‘go-to guy’ this season. Chavez earned First Team Also the Coyotes will take on Bellevue (Neb.) and William Jewell and Westminster (Utah).

All-American honors last year at LA Harbor.

The Coyotes are definitely deeper on the defensive side. Dibbini sees a possible sevenman rotation with six players that the Coyotes can rely on and two role players that will fit into “Alex will be our leading go-to guy this year,” he “Bellevue and Azusa are consistent National the mix without problem. Five of the eight are said. “He’s a big strong target player with a nice left Tournament teams,” Dibbini said. “Williams returning players.

Jewell has been very good in the past along foot.” with a very strong Westminster team.”

“We are deeper than we have been in the last Several players will be able to compliment Chavez two or three years defensively,” Dibbini said. nicely, including Eduardo Barba (Jr., 5-11, 145, McPherson and Friends along with the “There’s a lot of players that we can turn to and Norwalk, Calif. / East LA College (Calif.)), Jacob Coyotes should be the top teams in the Kansas they all bring a different defensive element to DeLeon (Jr., 5-8, 166, Apple Valley, Calif. / Victor Conference, but Dibbini also thinks that Ottawa our game.”

CROSS COUNTRY COACHING STAFF HEAD COACH JEFF BARKER

Jeff Barker has been cross country and track coach at Kansas Wesleyan University since 2007.

In his three years at Kansas Wesleyan, Barker has wokred hard to built the cross coutnry teams into contenders not only in the KCAC but at a national level as well. In 2007, his first season, Barker qualified two individuals to run at the NAIA National Championships and in 2008, five individuals went to the big show, including Sarah Williams, who earned NAIA All-American honors by finishing 26th in the race. Williams also won the KCAC Championship Meet. In 2009, the women’s cross country team won the KCAC Championship for the first time since 2006 and the men finished second, nearly knocking off perennial favorite Southwestern.

Barker came to Kansas Wesleyan from Calumet College at St. Joseph (Ind.), where he was most recently the head distance track coach and assistant cross country coach. He also held a similar concurrent position at Andrean High School in Merrillville, Indiana.

Before being named head distance coach and assistant cross country coach at Calumet, Barker was named the program’s first head cross country coach in June, 2005. By August of that year, he had recruited 10 student-athletes, including a national qualifier for the NAIA Championships that season.

Barker earned degrees in Criminal Justice and Human Service and Social Work from Saint Joseph’s College in Rensselaer, Ind., after excelling at Bishop Noll Institute High School.

At Saint Joseph’s, he was named a team captain and recruiting leader in the 2002-2003 season.

At Bishop Noll Institute, he was named the 1998-99 Athlete of the Year, while earning several individual honors, including Honorable Mention AllState honors in 1998, and he was the LAC Conference Champion in 1998, setting a course record of 15:50 for the 5K race. He went on to earn LAC Champion honors in the 3200m and was the IHSAA Sectional Champion in the 3200m.

Barker is committed to building his programs based on the recent success in both cross country and track at KWU. “One of my favorite quotes is ‘If what we did last year still looks good this year, then are we really doing what it takes to get better?’. We are going to work very hard to develop a program that cross country/track athletes want to be a part of daily. Once the program has purpose, the passion will grow, and the athletes will love being a part of something truly special.”

Barker is married to the former Alanna Moore, and the couple resides in Salina
