2008-09 RAILSPLITTER BASKETBALL SEASON OUTLOOK The 2008-09 season marks the beginning of a new era in Lincoln Memorial University men’s basketball. With an entirely new coaching staff, 17 new players and only three returning players from a year ago, this year’s Railsplitter basketball team will have many hurdles to overcome.

LMU has three returnees led by 6’3" guard Ryan Whitaker. Whitaker averaged 11.1 points per game as a freshman on his way to earning South Atlantic Conference All-Freshman Team honors last season. “I expect Ryan to be a tremendous leader for us and he is certainly our most experienced player,” says Railsplitter Head Coach Josh Schertz.

“He has worked exceptionally hard over the summer and into the preseason to continue to raise his game.”

Also back for the Railsplitters are seniors Wadner Joseph and Matt Bogard. Joseph averaged 7.7 ppg. last year, while Bogard chipped in 4.0 ppg. for LMU. “Matt has become a leader for us on and off the court and as our best perimeter defender he should compete for minutes at the guard spot. Wadner is continuing to improve and while he showed some flashes last year as evidenced by his 28 point performance against Carson-Newman, we are hoping to see more consistency out of him as a senior.”

The Railsplitter coaching staff brought in 15 newcomers headlined by local product and University of Louisville transfer Stuart Miller who comes to LMU after a highly decorated high school career.

“Stuart is a tremendous shooter and will make an immediate impact for us. “Other transfers include Robin Sikes (UNCW), D’Mario Curry (Schoolcraft JC) and Josh Stanley (Spartanburg Methodist College). “Robin is a very good player who has improved his physical conditioning leaps and bounds over the last few months.

He gives us a back-to-the-basket scorer with the ability to shoot the ball from the perimeter. D’Mario Curry is the most talented player I have had the opportunity to coach and if he continues to work hard, I can see him making a major impact not only on our team but in the South Atlantic Conference. Josh Stanley is a versatile forward who is not only a great shooter, but possesses a high basketball IQ and some toughness.”

The freshman class will be the foundation of the program as it moves forward. “We have some talented freshman guards in Brandon Armstrong (Chamblee High School), Justin Allen (Miller Grove High School), Carlos Sanford (Riverside High School), Dominic Parker (Ravenscroft High School), and Brandon O’Brien (Chamblee High School).

“I feel like we recruited some guards that are interchangeable and that fit our system perfectly,” says Schertz. “Given the lack of returners, we are going to have to count on some freshman to play major roles and I think some of these guys will be up to the task.”

Other newcomers to the front line include Desmond Johnson (Cumberland High School), Scott Erland (Harpeth High School) and Tony Martin (Moeller High School). “These three guys have worked exceptionally hard and are really talented. They obviously will go through some growing pains as they develop, but I am excited to watch them develop over the next few years.”

Other newcomers include Kyle Witek (High Point University), Ivan McCarty (Union Co. High School) who will red shirt. “We have good depth and that should allow our practices to be tough and competitive. I like everything about this team except for its lack of experience, but that will force us to learn by being thrown right into it. Hopefully we will get better as the year goes along and be at our best come tournament time.”

RAILSPLITTER COACHING STAFF

JOSH SCHERTZ HEAD COACH

1st Season

On March 22, 2008, highly respected recruiter and 10 year college coaching coaching veteran Josh Schertz was named the 17th head coach in Lincoln Memorial University storied men’s basketball history, which spans nearly 100 years. In announcing his hiring, University Athletics Director Roger Vannoy said “We’re very excited to have Coach Schertz join our program at LMU; he is great on paper and in person and has a tremendous track record with proven success. He has shown that he is a solid recruiter and brings a lot of energy to the Railsplitter basketball program.

With Coach Schertz at the helm, we are very excited about the future of Lincoln Memorial University men’s basketball.”

Regarded as a tireless worker and one of the rising stars in the coaching profession, Schertz has received national recognition for his recruiting success. In nine seasons as a recruiting coordinator at three different institutions Schertz’s recruiting classes have experienced success in the classroom, on the court and individual recognition. During this time 36 of the 37 recruits signed by Schertz have graduated. He has been a part of the winningest seasons in both High Point University and Queens University’s rich basketball histories, while recruiting the foundation of Lynn University’s record breaking 2005 team. In just nine years Schertz has signed two National Players of the Year, three Conference Players of the Year, three Conference Freshman of the Year, and eight players who have earned first team all conference honors. He has recruited the all-time leading scorers at Lynn University and High Point University (D1) as well as the all-time leaders in rebounding, assists and shot blocks at Lynn, High Point and Queens University.

Schertz comes to LMU after serving as the associate head coach at High Point University for the last five seasons. During this time High Point posted its five best seasons at the Division 1 level consecutively, highlighted by the 2006-07 team’s 22-10 record despite having only one senior. During his tenure at High Point, he helped the Panthers establish school records for wins in a season, conference wins, road wins and highest RPI ranking. High Point won 87 games in the five years Schertz was on staff. They won a total of 47 games in the five seasons before his arrival. HPU players also thrived in the classroom as 16 out of the 17 players who finished their eligibility graduated during the last five years. Schertz signed three top ranked recruiting classes in the Big South, and his 2005 recruiting class ranked in the top 35 nationally according to Hoopscoop. During Schertz’s tenure as recruiting coordinator two players, Danny Gathings in 2004, and AZ Reid in 2007 and 2008, earned Big South Conference Player of the Year honors a total of three times and were both named Division 1 All-Americans. He also signed three players, Reid 2005, Justin Dunn 2006 and Eugene Harris 2007, who went to earn all freshman team honors at HPU. Prior to coming to High Point, Schertz served as the Associate Head Coach at Queens University of Charlotte, North Carolina, helping lead the Royals to a two-year mark of 49-14 including a school record 29-4 mark in 2003. That 2003 season culminated in the schools first ever trip to the NCAA Division II Final Four. As the program’s recruiting coordinator, Schertz made a huge impact signing 2004 National Division II Player of the Year Spencer Ross along with two-time national shot block leader Moustapha Diouf and 2003 CVAC Freshman of the Year Kendrick Harris. Schertz also served as a professor in the Queens’ physical education department and was the head coach of Queens’ junior varsity program.

Before joining Queens, Schertz spent two years at Lynn University (Fla.) serving as the Fighting Knights recruiting coordinator. He helped guide Lynn to a 37-18 mark as well as a top5 national ranking. While at Lynn, Schertz signed 2001 National Division II Freshman of the Year Leandro Garcia-Morales. His final signing class may have been his lasting legacy as the five-man group went on to become the most successful group of players in Lynn history. That group included James Taylor (all-time leading scorer) Justin Wingard (all-time leading rebounder and shot blocker) Austin Faber (all-time leader in assists and steals) and Akil Lewis (all-time leader in made three-pointers), who as seniors formed the nucleus of Lynn’s school record-setting squad that tallied 29 wins and earned a trip to the NCAA Division II Final Four in 2005. Schertz signed two players named Sunshine State Conference Freshman of the Year, Garcia-Morales (2001) and Taylor (2002), as well as four players who went on to earn allconference honors.

Schertz began his career as an assistant coach at his alma mater, Florida Atlantic University, where he spent one season working under Kevin Billerman. Schertz also served as an assistant to current Florida Gators associate head coach Larry Shyatt for the 2001 Maccabi Games.

Schertz, a 2000 graduate of Florida Atlantic, also has a master’s in education from Lynn Josh Schertz & wife Natalia University. Coach Schertz has two sons, Jordan (12) and Jaden (6), and is married to the former Natalia Ceballos. They reside in Harrogate, TN.

2007-08 SEASON REVIEW The 2007-08 LMU men’s basketball season began with high expectations and ended with great disappointment. From the beginning of preseason workouts, the Railsplitters were plagued with injuries that seemed to snowball into the nonconference schedule. By the time the Railsplitters opened conference play in mid November, injuries had depleted the team’s numbers and merely keeping scores respectable was sometimes the main objective.

In the late portion of the conference season, the Railsplitters put together a run that was sparked by emotion, character and determination. Led by 2007-08 All-South Atlantic Conference Freshman Team member Ryan Whitaker and former Railsplitter Terry Delaney, the Railsplitters won three of four games in early February, including back-to-back victories over the Pioneers of Tusculum and the Tornados of Brevard College. While the wins didn’t turn the season around, they did allow the team to sustain a level of dignity and helped them finish one of the most frustrating seasons in Railsplitter basketball history.

Following former Head Coach Hugh Watson’s announcement that he would retire at the season’s end, Ryan Whitaker, Wadner Joseph and Matt Bogard made the decision to return for the 2008-09 season as the foundation of what is hoped will be a rekindling of a storied basketball tradition that is rapidly approching 100 years of collegiate success.

THE SOUTH ATLANTIC CONFERENCE The South Atlantic Conference is in its 32nd year of athletic tradition and excellence. The conference has enjoyed tremendous success due to dedicated people building a premier athletic conference throughout its history.

The distant forerunner of the South Atlantic Conference was the North State Intercollegiate Atlantic Conference (NSIAC). The NSIAC was formed when the “Little Six”, as it was called, broke from the North Carolina Intercollegiate Athletic Conference in 1930. These charter members included Lenoir-Rhyne College, Atlantic Christian, Catawba College, Guilford College, Elon College, and High Point University.

The North State continued to grow over the next 30 years, adding Western Carolina (1933), East Carolina (1947) and Pfeiffer (1960). A name change became necessary when the league accepted Newberry as its first South Carolina member in 1961. The league took on the name Carolinas Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (CIAC) on May 20th of that year.

The CIAC saw several changes in the following years as East Carolina withdrew from the league in 1962.

Appalachian State and Western Carolina followed in 1971 and 1976. All three landed in the Southern Conference.

The South Atlantic Conference was founded in 1975 solely as a football conference. The league received its name from a contest in which Kurt Brenneman of Greensboro, NC became the first to submit the SAC-8 moniker. The SAC-8 consisted of Carson-Newman College, Catawba College, Elon College, Gardner-Webb University, Lenoir-Rhyne College, Mars Hill College, Newberry College, and Presbyterian College. Dr. Fred Bentley, of Mars Hill College, was named league president for its inaugural year, by a vote of the member institutions.

After the first season of play in the SAC-8, the Bears of Lenoir-Rhyne College captured the first football title.

In 1989, the league’s 15th year of operation, the South Atlantic Conference became a comprehensive, allsports conference. That year the South Atlantic Conference sponsored 10 sports - football, men’s and women’s basketball, baseball, softball, men’s soccer, volleyball, men’s 2008-09 LMU Railsplitter Basketball

KEY DATES IN SAC HISTORY 1930 -– North State Atlantic Conference formed when six schools broke from the North Carolina Intercollegiate Athletic Conference 1961 – Newberry joins league. Conference changes name to Carolinas Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (CIAC) 1975 – South Atlantic Conference formed as football league with eight schools, called the SAC-8.

1988 – Wingate replaces Newberry 1989 – SAC became an all-sports conference 1996 – Newberry rejoins conference 1998 – Tusculum joins conference 2006 – Lincoln Memorial joins conference 2007 – Brevard admitted as provisional member

golf, men’s and women’s tennis. Later the conference grew to 14 championship sports by adding women’s soccer (1990), men’s and women’s cross country (1993) and women’s golf (1999). The South Atlantic Conference was composed of the same eight member institutions from 1975 until 1988, when Wingate University replaced Newberry College as the eighth member institution. Newberry later rejoined the conference in 1996.

Today the conference is a group of nine private, liberal art colleges and universities, similar in size and athletic philosophy. Since becoming eligible for NCAA Division II postseason play in 1993, the league has sent representatives from all of its sponsored sports to NCAA tournaments.

Tusculum College was admitted as a member of the league in 1998. In 2006, Lincoln Memorial University became the league’s newest member. Brevard College was admitted in 2007 as a provisional member.

The league membership now includes Brevard College in Brevard, NC; Carson-Newman College in Jefferson City, TN; Catawba College in Salisbury, NC; Lenoir-Rhyne College in Hickory, NC; Lincoln Memorial University in Harrogate, TN; Mars Hill College in Mars Hill, NC; Newberry College in Newberry, SC; Tusculum College in Greeneville, TN; and Wingate University in Wingate, NC.

With the entry of America into World War II on Dec. 8, 1941, small colleges like LMU lost most of their male students to the services. The SMAC followed suit and halted play until the end of the war. Some schools, like Milligan and Carson-Newman, became Naval training colleges (with classifications like V-5 and V-12).

Because of this, most schools put athletics on hold until the end of the war. LMU and a few other schools tried to keep athletics going. One example is Mars Hill, where all but one of the male students on campus were on the basketball team and the coach was a woman. With the end of the war in August, 1945, things slowly began to return to “normal” and schools resumed their athletic programs.

The 1948-49 season had a lot of “firsts.” LMU had a new coach in Dean Bailey, who played against the Railsplitters in football, basketball and baseball while a student at East Tennessee State. They had a new permanent gym in the Mary Mars Gymnasium. They had a new conference with the VSAC adding regular season games (the Volunteer State Athletic Conference had been founded in 1947 and LMU won the first title in the tournament, but the 48-49 season was the first with a full VSAC schedule.) And this season also saw LMU’s first national post-season appearance in the NAIB (which was the basketball portion of the NAIA ) Tournament.

People have wondered why the 195859 team did not go on to the NAIA national tournament. The reason is that Coach Bailey wanted to win the SMAC Championship and the two tournaments were held on the same day. At this time the national tournament did not have the prestige it now has and to the people around campus the SMAC title carried more weight. (The 1959 baseball team also turned down a NAIA bid as well, for different reasons.) The Railsplitters in the 1958-59 season have been called Bailey’s best squad because they won both conferences and took home the VSAC Sportsmanship Trophy. It was the end of an era, however. The SMAC would fold after the next season because most of the Tennessee schools joined the VSAC. LMU’s decision in 1959 to cut scholarships also affected the team in a variety of ways.

TEX TURNER ARENA The B. Frank “Tex” Turner Arena has been the home of the Railsplitters and Lady Railsplitters since 1991. Since then, it has become known as one of the top basketball facilities at the Division II level.

The arena replaced the Mary E. Mars Gymnasium, which had been the home of LMU basketball since 1948.

The 87,000 square foot complex seats 5,009 for basketball contests, with another 1,000 portable seats available for other events. The distance from the playing floor to the roof is 40 feet, the equivalent of a twostory building. The arena is 230 feet (east to west) and 282 feet (north to south). It contains over 81,866 square feet of floor space, and over 4 million cubic feet of space.

The arena also serves as a practice facility for the golf, soccer, baseball and softball teams. The auxiliary gym contains batting cages and there is an indoor practice tee used by the golf teams.

Over the years, several concerts as well as district and regional tournaments have been held in the arena. The LMU spring and fall commencement services and pinning ceremonies have been held there since 1991.

LMU’s athletic offices are located on the lower level, with the exception of cross country, softball and volleyball. Also located on the lower level are the athletic training offices, the university press and the university post office. The LMU Athletes Hall-ofFame, the Turner Room and a classroom are also located on the lower level and are often used by campus and community groups for meetings and other functions.

The recently refurbished athletic training room and weight room are located on the lower level within easy access of the playing floor and air-conditioned dressing rooms.

The upper level contains a ticket office and other offices as well as the Dean Bailey Trophy Room, which houses trophies and other memorabilia dating back to the 1920’s and is a memorial to former coach Dean Bailey.

The upper concourse also is open to the public as a walking track and is extremely popular with the local community.

Entrances to the building are located on the north, south and east ends. There are a total of 24 entrance doors to the arena (handicap access is available on both The Railsplitters in the Turner Arena levels).

THIS IS LINCOLN MEMORIAL UNIVERSITY Lincoln Memorial University was founded in 1897 as a living memorial to Abraham Lincoln and his philosophy and ideals.

Its inception dates from an occasion in the fall of 1863 when the President was meeting with General Oliver Otis Howard to discuss military operations in and around the Cumberland Gap and East Tennessee area. The President expressed his appreciation for the loyalty that the people of the region had shown to the Union during this time of Civil War. Pointing to the area on the map, Mr. Lincoln said, “General Howard, if you come out of all this horror and misery alive, and I hope that you may, I want you to do something for these people who have been shut out from the world all these years. If I live, I will do all I can to aid you and between us we may do them the justice they deserve. Please remember, and if God is good to us we may be able to speak of it later!”

Mr. Lincoln did not live to see his dream fulfilled, but O.O. Howard (who also was a founder of Howard University) never forgot those words. In 1895, he traveled to the Cumberland Gap area to address a small academy that was operated by a Congregational minister, the Rev. A.A. Myers, and his wife Ellen. While he was there, the General remembered Lincoln’s request and joined with the Myers and several prominent friends to lay the groundwork for a university honoring the slain President. It was to be an institution whose mission and principles would exemplify the life of Abraham Lincoln.

The philosophy articulated by these founders as a guide for University programs and curriculum was based on the following principles which were exemplified in the life of Abraham Lincoln: individual liberty; the privileges and responsibilities of the American government; love and respect for the fellow people; personal initiative, individual effort; unselfish leadership; an appreciation for the common people; free enterprise; and belief in a personal God. Now in its 111th year of operation, LMU has grown into a progressive university, offering over 30 majors. LMU’s Fall 2008 enrollment was 3,365 students and there were 153 faculty members at the main campus and ten extended-campus sites. The main campus is also home to the Abraham Lincoln Library and Museum, which houses one of the largest Lincoln collections in the country.

PRESIDENT / ATHLETICS DIRECTOR

PRESIDENT DR. NANCY MOODY Nancy B. Moody was born and raised in Middlesboro, Kentucky. Following graduation as an honor student from Middlesboro High School, she received degrees in nursing from Eastern Kentucky University. Other degrees were received after beginning her professional career at Lincoln Memorial University. While at LMU, Dr. Moody was involved with initial and continuing accreditation activities from the American Veterinary Medical Association, the National Accrediting Agency for Clinical Laboratory Sciences and the National League for Nursing (NLN). She was indirectly involved with accreditation by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS), but directly involved with the preparation of substantive change reports and visits from SACS following the development of off-campus nursing programs in Corbin, Kentucky, Knoxville, Tennessee, and Madisonville, Tennessee. She was directly involved with development of an R.N. to B.S.N. program, three off-campus programs, and programs in veterinary science.

Dr. Moody has taught in associate, baccalaureate, masters and doctoral degree programs in nursing. She has worked closely with faculty from the Colleges of Business, Public and Allied Health and Medicine to develop interdisciplinary courses and a certificate program in health care management. She has taught in private higher education, and in both statewide systems of higher education in Tennessee, the Tennessee Board of Regents and the University of Tennessee.

Dr. Moody serves as a program evaluator and peer review panel member for the National League for Nursing Accrediting Commission, as a research grant reviewer for the NLN and is a peer panel reviewer for Nursing and Health Care Perspectives. She has published in the Tennessee Nurse, the Journal of Professional Nursing, the Journal of Nursing Administration, the Nurse Practitioner and in Clinical Excellence for Nurse Practitioners. She has presented or is scheduled to present locally, regionally and nationally on nursing work force issues at conferences sponsored by the American Nurses Association, the American Organization of Nurse Executives, the National Association of Student Nurses, the National Organization of Nurse Practitioner Faculty, the Rural Health Association of Tennessee, the Southern Regional Education Board, the Southern Nursing Research Society and the Tennessee Nurses Association.

Since 1994, she has garnered approximately $1 million in grants and contracts to study work force issues in Tennessee.

In terms of leadership, Dr. Moody has served as department chairperson, dean and executive director of an organization that was incorporated and became recognized by the Internal Revenue Service as a 501[c]3 organization. In the latter capacity, she has been directly involved in the conduct of state-wide meetings, worked with a multidisciplinary state-wide group, represented the organization at state and national meetings, appeared before state boards, developed contracts with individuals and agencies, garnered donations, and written and administered grants for the organization.

She and her husband Tom have two children, Adam and Mykel. Before moving to the President’s Home in Harrogate, the Moodys lived in Knoxville, Tennessee.

ATHLETICS DIRECTOR ROGER VANNOY

Following the 2006-07 women’s basketball season, Roger Vannoy had served as Lincoln Memorial University’s women’s basketball coach for a quarter of a century.

During that time he amassed a 453-245 record, earning a spot among the top-20 NCAA Division II active coaches of that time.

A life-long native of Harrogate, Tennessee, Vannoy’s background in athletics dates back to his days as a high school coach at the former Powell Valley High School. Since that time he has coached 14 LMU hall of famers, 16 all-conference performers and five All-Americans.

Vannoy’s retirement from the coaching ranks following the 2006-07 season afforded him the opportunity to take over as Lincoln Memorial University’s athletics director and to continue to serve the institution from which he graduated in 1975. Vannoy and his wife Pam reside in Harrogate and have two daughters, Morgane and Whitney.
